“You come here, flaunting….”

“Mrs Malfoy,” Harry interrupted.

She glared fury, but said nothing more.

“I know I am merely a guest,” he said, watching Draco’s shoulders stiffen, “but I have news from my friend, Hermione Granger. I understand she is your Litigator?”

Draco’s mother gave Harry a curt nod. Then she carefully resettled herself on her chair, fluffing her lilac wool robes, cleaning all emotion from her face.

“Tea, Mr Potter?”

“Yes, thank you,” Harry said.

Their words were formal and cold, perfunctory and utilitarian.

But Harry never released his grip on Draco’s hand. Nor did he step away.

Harry and Draco sat across from Narcissa on a small, flowered loveseat. They had tea, made small talk regarding the slowly progressing trial, and spoke not a word about the way Harry and Draco were holding hands, cuddled thigh to thigh, and smiling private smiles at one another in between bites of their tiny sandwiches, sips of their tea.

Eventually, Draco’s mother crumpled slightly, wiped just under one eye, and generally began to exude a despondent air.

Harry was honestly impressed with her acting skills, but they just… waited.

“Why did you come?” she finally asked. “Are you punishing me?”

You think yourself too important Narcissa. Draco tries to include you in his life, but you make it all about yourself. I just hope she gets it into her thick skull, that Draco is the Lord of the Manor and a grown up man. If she continues like this I would wash my hands of her,

I don't think Draco is willing to completely abandon his mother! But she is definitely going to have to learn who the boss of Draco is now, and it is not her!

Well, Narcissa needs to learn her place and Draco will need to pull out the big guns for her
