"When do you report back to the Wizengamot?" Draco asked, ignoring the way he felt at the moment. He wanted to close the distance between them and comfort Potter, all the while, he was still pissed off.
Because Potter always pissed him off.
"In one week," Potter said, looking resigned. "I'm not sure what good it'll do. We have to find the mole also."
Draco raised an eyebrow, "And was I mentioned as a suspect?" He felt like he had to ask.
Potter scowled at him. "Don't be ridiculous, Draco," he said. "You weren't anywhere near the evidence without supervision. And, you wouldn't have been so meticulous with Corner if you were only going to go and destroy evidence."
"That would give me the perfect cover, don't you think."
"No, I don't think. And you always leave early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and all other times there was someone there with you. The logs prove that."
Draco continued to raise his eyebrow, "Did you go back and check the logs? Why?"
"Because I knew you were going to get paranoid, and I know there will be someone who will ask such a ridiculous question so I wanted to be prepared for it. I mean, I hang out with Hermione, don't you think I've learned a thing or two? She's always prepared for any scenario, and she's the best."
"So you were... what? Already protecting my reputation?"
Potter bit his lower lip, and the wind kicked in right then and there and Draco shivered again. This time, Potter didn't hesitate to close the distance between them, and he covered Draco's body with his. "Can we go somewhere and talk? I can't use magic in front of all these Muggles and they're looking at us like we're already insane, discussing some random crime in the cold."
"Very well," Draco said, and allowed Potter to pull him away.
