Floo Call at the Malfoys

"Mum! Dad! I made a friend today!"

Astoria gave her husband a look. See, what'd I tell you? And you were worried.

Draco smiled. Fine, you were right. "That's great, son. So who's your friend?"

"Albus Severus Potter!"

Draco choked on his tea. "Wh-wh-what?" He stammered like a git before he managed to say, "But - WHY?"

Scorpius did not seem to find this question strange. "Because he's the only other student in the entire school who has a name as horrible as mine!" he said happily. "Oh, there's Albus now! I'm gonna go, talk to you later!"

With a pop Scorpius's head disappeared from the fireplace.

Draco looked at his wife.

She shrugged. "You brought that one on yourself, dear," she said, sipping her tea.
