Punishment

Prologue

"Fuck you, Potter."

"Well, actually, Malfoy, I'd rather it be a girl."

Malfoy grumbled and said something unintelligible in response.

"Besides," Harry said, looking at Malfoy, "you don't look bad at all..." he looked up at Malfoy.

"Spare me the pity, Potter; it's what people give you all the time." He glared at the speccy git.

"Believe me, I'd take you're hate over their pity any time." Harry looked down at the marble on the floor. There was truth in his voice, was there anytime there wasn't?

No response. "Stop attempting to modify the subject matter. I can't believe you did this to me! The Boy Who Lived making his enemy have rainbow colored hair! And ―"

Harry looked up at the sudden loss of silence, smiled and laughed. "I had no idea that was going to happen to you! I was just as shocked as you were!"

"Trust me, Potter, no one could've been as shocked as me."

"It was a side-effect." Harry replied shortly.

"Ah yes, but I got you back, as I recall correctly." Malfoy said, remembering his little 'accident'. "The Love Potion Incident."

"Ugh, don't remind me."

"Yeah? Well, I believe that putting a spell on me while I was kissing Cho Chang, probably the hottest thing here, which made me obtain breasts is not something you can get payback for." Malfoy replied icily, pointing at his chest to emphasize his point.

"Oh, come on, for a week you can be the hottest thing in all of Hogwarts." Harry said, elbowing Malfoy in a teasing way.

"I was always the hottest thing in Hogwarts, in a very, very, very masculine way, need I point out." He pulled away.

"Blood-flavored Lollipops," Harry chuckled a bit.

"What?" said Malfoy, confused.

"Idiot, I said the password."

"Is it always that stupid sounding?"

"Well…"

The two set themselves on the stairs which bought them up, of course, more snipping at each other was at hand. When they reached the top, even though they were both here previously, they were constantly in awe of the place. They went in front of the Headmaster's office doors which magically opened for them.

"Ah, yes, Mister Potter, Mister Malfoy, care to sit down." The Headmaster said, motioning to two armchairs in front of him. They looked very comfortable indeed. "Lemon Drop?"

"No thanks."

Harry sat down and put his hands on his lap. Draco sat down, put his arms behind the chair and crossed his legs. Dumbledore looked at the pair bemusedly.

"Malfoy, have some respect." Harry warned.

"Okay, okay…what's our punishment headmaster?"

"First things first." the headmaster said. "This was indeed a very crucial decision to make and I have reached this choice with the assistance of Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape which were both rather reluctant to work with each other but put away their differences and cooperated. Now, I want you to know that we are doing this for the both of you; the point of punishments are to show you what you did wrong so that you won't do it again. And since the explosion you caused was very serious indeed and because we want you to learn, your punishment is…" he proceeded to say the punishment.

"Bollocks!" Harry solemn swore in front of teachers, especially Dumbledore, except for time like these. He looked at the headmaster disbelievingly.

"Shit! You must be fucking well joking!"
