【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

Summer afternoons are always the hottest time.

Esther was sitting at a table in an outdoor beverage shop. The parasol held up next to her covered most of the sunlight, but it could not cover the heat in the air.

She put down the cold drink in her hand with some irritation, and looked at Draco opposite with a bad tone: "So this is why you are late?"

Anyone who waits for someone from nine in the morning to three in the afternoon will not be able to maintain a good temper.

Draco on the opposite side also knew that he was too wrong this time. He did not defend himself as usual, but admitted his mistake obediently: "I'm sorry, I promise you, something like this will never happen again in the future."

This summer vacation seems to be business as usual, but beneath the calm surface, things are already turbulent.

Esther originally planned to ask Draco out to play as soon as the summer vacation came, but due to various reasons, the time kept being postponed. This time, she finally determined the time to meet, but before leaving, the Malfoys suddenly took Draco with them. Coe went to visit the Greengrass family and wasted a lot of time.

Looking at Draco's guilt-filled eyes, Esther took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.

She knew it wasn't Draco's fault.

With the return of Voldemort, the Malfoys have to align themselves again. Even if their romantic relationship is not made clear, how come the Malfoys, Draco's parents, don't notice something unusual about their son?

They deliberately made their attitude clear to Esther.

Esther didn't care about these little tricks, she was just a little upset because she waited too long.

"Okay, I know you didn't mean it, and I'll forgive you this time."

Esther said with a final sigh.

Draco on the other side was obviously relieved when he heard what she said.

He was wearing a regular shirt and suit pants today, probably the closest thing to Muggle clothing he could find.

The boy who has passed his 15th birthday is getting taller and taller. With his tall and thin figure and his beautiful face, he looks good in anything he wears.

Esther looked at him appreciatively, and the last trace of resentment dissipated under his handsome appearance.

"It's hot right now, let's go to the mall first."

Esther suggested.

Of course Draco would have no objections.

To be honest, he had little contact with the Muggle world, and even though he said he was disdainful of everything in front of him, he was still a little curious in his heart.

After paying for the drinks, Esther took Draco to a nearby shopping mall.

Because there was no one they knew around, they could finally hold hands openly and walk on the road as intimately as those Muggle student couples who secretly fell in love.

"I exchanged some Muggle banknotes before I came here." Draco said, taking out a neat stack of banknotes from his pocket, and said with some uncertainty, "I don't know if it will be enough for us."

Esther glanced at the banknotes in his hand, and then smiled: "Don't worry about money, because I have this."

She said and took out a card.

"what is this?"

Draco asked curiously.

Esther explained to him: "Bank card, this is the account my father opened for me in my name after I was born. Over the years, I have saved all my endless pocket money into it, and now I have saved a lot."

Draco looked at the thin card curiously: "So do we have to go to a Muggle bank to withdraw money first?"

"That's not necessary." Esther put away the card and said, "Just swipe the card then."

"Swipe card?"

"That's right, there will be a machine specially designed for swiping cards in the store. When the time comes, put the card on the machine and swipe it, and the money inside will be automatically deducted. It is much more convenient than carrying cash."

"...It sounds like magic."

"Indeed, but it is technology and has nothing to do with magic."

Esther explained a few words casually.

The reason why she wanted so strongly to take Draco to the Muggle world was mainly because she wanted to prove to him that Muggles were not as stupid and weak as those wizards who respected pure blood said. The times were developing, and the world of Muggles Earth-shaking changes have been made, but it is actually the wizards who have stayed put.

Draco didn't say anything else. His eyes were completely attracted by the tall buildings standing on the street, the cars coming and going, and the various shops.

When he walked into the store via the escalator, he could barely conceal his shock.

Esther pretended not to see his shock and took him for a leisurely stroll.

When passing by a men's clothing store, Esther pushed him in: "The clothes you bought for me last time, I will buy them for you this time."

Draco frowned, seeming to resist: "I don't wear linen... I don't like these clothes."

"Try it." Esther made a pleading look and said coquettishly: "Just give it a try. I will choose some clothes for you that you will look particularly handsome in."

While he was talking, the shopping guide beside him had already stepped forward with a smile.

She did not look down upon Esther and the others because of their young age. On the contrary, she was very attentive, because from their appearance and temperament, it could be seen that they were a young couple who were not short of money.

Draco shut his mouth when he saw someone coming.

So Esther took the opportunity to give him a set of clothes and let him try them on.

He reluctantly changed into Muggle clothes, and when he came out, Esther showed a very obsessed look and spared no effort to praise his handsomeness.

Then give him another set to try.

Of course, the shopping guide girl on the side wouldn't say anything bad. She also kept praising the clothes for being beautiful and suitable for Draco.

So he changed into several sets of clothes, and under the admiration of Esther and the shopping guide, Draco was so praised that he fell into a trance.

He began to doubt whether he was really suitable for wearing these Muggle clothes.

Of course, Esther did not disappoint the hard-working shopping guide when it came time to pay. She bought all the sets of clothes Draco tried on.

After swiping the card, she left an address and phone number. Esther asked the clothes to be delivered to this address, and then continued shopping with Draco.

"What's that address?"

Draco asked with some confusion.

It can't be her home in the Muggle world, right?

Esther answered him: "This is my birthday a few days ago. My grandfather gave me a gift, a small villa that belongs to me. It is still being decorated according to my ideas, so I will send it to you first and I will return it after a while." I’ll take you over there to have a look.”

Draco didn't know what to say for a moment: "It seems that I still underestimated how wealthy your family is in the Muggle world."

Esther smiled: "So you know how much advantage you have taken, right? Falling in love with me will ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing in your life."

Draco curled his lips: "Don't talk to me like a pretty boy."

Esther laughed loudly: "But in the eyes of that shopping guide just now, you may have already fallen in love with a pretty pretty girl."

Draco: ...
