“Right,” said Harry, rousing himself. “We should get up. We’ve things to do.”
Draco yawned and stretched. “Like?”
“Prepare for work.” Harry sighed. “I should pop home, check on things there, too, since I haven’t been there in a week.”
“Don’t you have a house-elf?”
“Yes.” Harry coughed. “You remember how Hermione feels about them, don’t you? She doesn’t think it cool to use slave labour, so I tend to not call on him for anything.”
Draco rolled his eyes. “He lives there, right?” At Harry’s nod, he said, “Then just summon him and ask how things are. Easy peasy!”

Harry shook his head. “I doubt he’d answer. He doesn’t like me much. He considers me an upstart, half-blood intruder.”
“He’s said that to your face?”
“Pretty much.”
Draco raised an eyebrow. “And you let him get away with it without punishing him?”
Harry shrugged. “I can’t punish Kreacher! That would definitely not be cool.”
Draco stared at him. “Your elf’s Kreacher?” He shuddered. “All right, I take it back. I wouldn’t summon him either. If you like, I can have Tippy check on your house.”
“That could hurt Kreacher’s feelings.”
Draco snorted. “You need to make up your mind.”
