After they had got themselves tidied up between customers, Harry put on a pot of tea and brought out a tin of biscuits. They sipped in relative silence.
The bell over the door tinkled. "Hello, Harry dear."
"Hello, Molly. Can I help you?" Harry asked.
"Oh, Draco I didn't see you dear. How are you? Just back from the continent? I haven’t seen your mother in a while, how is she?"
"Molly?" Harry prodded.
"Sorry dears."
"I'm fine and mother is as well." Draco inserted at the pause.
Molly put her hands together. "We're getting some good news tomorrow and I need a small gift."
"Good news?"
"Yes, George is going to pop the question at Sunday dinner. We're all thrilled. She's a lovely girl. Harry, you should bring Draco and maybe ask Hermione and Millicent to join you. I know Ginny misses Hermione and you're all friends with Blaise." Molly paused for a breath and put her hands to her cheeks. "I do hope Ginny is next…"
"Molly, the gift?" Harry attempted to return the force of nature that was Molly back to the project at hand.
"Right dear. That little pink bud vase you made, perhaps something like that."
Harry nodded. "Maybe one of the twilight ones or the green. I don't think Angelina is much for pink."
They settled on two small midnight blue ones and a tiny green one. Molly was off with a kiss and a wave. Several other customers browsed.
"Do you think he's really going to propose in front of the entire family?" Draco asked in horror.
"Nah. I bet he asks her tonight, so they can seal the deal properly." Harry grinned.
"So, not such an idiot."
"You've seen his shop. He's brilliant!"
"Do you think she thinks we're…you know…together?" Draco didn't look at Harry as he asked.
"Hard to tell. She knows I'm gay and you are a man."
"Yes, well that is difficult to miss. An exceptionally brilliant and handsome man at that."
Harry grinned. "You do have some redeeming qualities."
"Oh please Potter, you were begging for it a bit ago." Draco smirked.
"Because you literally had me by the bollocks!" Harry huffed. "And the minute the shop is closed you are going to be bent over that counter begging me for it."
"I told you Malfoy's don't bottom."
"Did your father tell you that?"
Draco sputtered. "Bastard!"
"I saw how you looked at me in the loo last night. You might want another biscuit or two just to keep your strength up." Harry teased.
"I will not be the one who has a problem getting or keeping it up!" Draco stuffed another biscuit into his mouth just as another customer walked in.
