“To the left,” Draco instructs, climbing the narrow wooden stairs behind Potter. “It’s unlocked.”

“You don’t lock your room?”

Draco shrugs. Old habits die hard, even after a gap year, and locking a dorm shared with four other people was about as practical as drinking from a sieve.

Late afternoon sunlight spills gently through the door.

He hated the stilted classical music that started the evening, and he hated the stupid wizarding band even more, because everyone but him knew their songs. He hated being left alone with Ron when the Patil twins finally abandoned them, and hated Ron for trailing out after Hermione without bothering to drag Harry along.
