Draco was walking out of the bathroom and into the hallway of the school when he saw a skeleton. A skeleton wearing a scarf and and a pink hat. He was also holding a cigarette. The skeleton waved Draco over to him. Draco looked behind him and made a "who me?" gesture. The skeleton nodded. Draco walked over slowly. The skeleton held up his unlit cigarette.
"You want me to light it?" asked Draco. The skeleton nodded enthusiastically. Draco shrugged and held up his wand to light the skeleton's cigarette. The skeleton nodded thanks and took a long drag of the cigarette, sending smoke everywhere. Draco looked over the skeleton. It seemed kind of silly but he couldn't help but think it was inappropriate for a walking skeleton to have no pants on. With a wave of his wand he produced a pair of very nice pants (they had belonged to his father) and a belt from home.
"Look, um. These are for you. A gift, no need to give them back." said Draco "Actually I really, really would like you not to give them back."
The skeleton put a bony arm around Draco and gave him an awkward hug. He put on the pants (Draco was impressed he was able to do it with a cigarette) and fastened the belt tightly. Draco nodded approvingly.
"Well, now that you are suitable for public and have satisfied your nicotine habit I must be off." said Draco, slowly backing up towards a door. He didn't know where it went, he didn't care. "I will see you later...maybe."
And with that he turned and walked briskly away from the skeleton.
