[Fic]: The Importance of Shoes
Category: Harry Potter
Written By: Mello McQueen
Summary: It is Draco's opinion that Muggles are crazy, and suicidal. Harry cannot really disagree.
Genre: Humor
Characters/Pairings: Harry, Draco, Hermione. Mentions of Ginny, and Ron. Draco/Harry, Hermione/Ron.
Authoress Notes: Today is Shoeless Day. You are not supposed to wear shoes, in order to raise awareness for children and other people who cannot afford their own. I've had a lot of (painful) fun being shoeless today, so I thought I would write about it in the form of a good old HP fanfiction. So...this is probably riddled with grammar mistakes. Feel free to point them out so that I can fix this when I have the time... written at: April 8th, 2010 9:30 P.M. word count: 480.
The Importance of Shoes
"Are you crazy, what in Merlin's name were you thinking?" Draco demands, angrily.
Harry sighs, and leans back onto his elbows. "Hermione said it was for a good cause..." He mumbles almost petulantly, rubbing blades of grass between his fingers.
Draco eyes him with a mixture of exasperation and annoyance. "Well, if she does that's only because her boyfriend and his family can relate so well." The words come out almost reflexively.
Even so Harry glares at him. "Draco." He says admonishingly, expression hardening.
"Harry." Draco replies, looking calmly back and refusing to relent.
A pause. "Don't do that, I mean it."
"Oh?"Draco retorts, " Well I really mean- Bloody Hell, you stupid git!"
Harry sighs, leaning forward to look at his foot which is currently situated in Draco's lap. "Is it that bad?" He asks, even though he can see the rag in Draco's hand. The rag that used to be white but that is now an awful shade of red...
Draco sighs. "I think we have to go inside and tell Girl-Weasley..." He expresses, and Harry knows that is really the last thing Draco wants to do. In fact, it's the last thing either of them wants to do.
Harry pulls a face. "Ginny will be mad..." He insists, and now it is Draco's turn to glare at him.
"Well, I think you might bleed to death if we don't tell someone, and I think she might be more forgiving than the Weasel's girlfriend." He says, and he looks pointedly at the large piece of red-stained glass sitting beside them. Harry thinks he's probably only mostly joking.
"Fine." He sighs, "help me up."
Draco does, and together they make their way inside.
Fifteen minutes, one healing spell, and a very pissed off Ginny Weasley later Harry is standing in the bathroom, washing the blood from his now healed foot. Draco stands in the doorway and watches.
"So," He says after a long silence, "are there anymore of these suicidal Muggle Holiday's I should be aware of?"
Harry opens his mouth to respond to this, just as Hermione comes into view. She's holding onto Ron, who is having to hop his way up the stairs.
They stop briefly when she catches Draco looking at them. "He stepped on a nail." She expresses, and then catches sight of Harry. "Oh, Harry! What did you do?"
Harry and Draco exchange looks. "Nothing." They say in unison and she rolls her eyes towards the ceiling in a 'why me' sort of way before exclaiming, "Boys!" and continuing on.
When she's gone, Draco turns to Harry looking at him pointedly. Harry sighs. "No, Draco." He says, "There are no more suicidal Muggle Holidays that you should be made aware of."
Draco smiles at this. "Good." He says, "I don't like you getting hurt, and besides..." A pause. "Muggles are crazy."
