Fascinated

"Do you think I can't hear you if you turn on the tap?"

Draco watched Joshua walk in, thought for a while, followed him in a strange way, and then heard the whispered words without any surprise.He raised his eyebrows, leaned against the door, and looked at Joshua in the mirror—the latter was also startled, and stared at him with wide eyes.Draco paused, with a familiar arc on the corner of his lips, and said casually, "In order to avoid misunderstanding, I have to make it clear—I just care about your relationship status."

"Oh." Joshua relaxed after being silent for three seconds, slowly squeezed the toothpaste, "So," he lowered his eyes and turned off the tap, "care about my emotional state." He glanced up at the silver pair in the mirror. The gray eye mask said lazily, "It seems that you are very anxious-don't you think you care more about me than I do about the fact that I haven't found a girlfriend yet?"

Draco crossed his arms, raised his chin slightly and looked at him quietly.

"Maybe they will fulfill your... wish." Joshua filled the water glass and pretended to name a few, "Actually, I'm thinking about inviting one of them to be my dance partner after returning to school. "

"This is really..." Draco narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "You should see an ophthalmologist, Joshua."

Gryffindor, who has been dissed countless times, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and made an exaggerated body movement, "We always only care about the beauty of the soul." He turned his head and smiled, "Otherwise, King Arthur should marry Master Merlin as his queen. .”

According to legend, the Archmage Merlin who guarded King Arthur for thousands of years is much more handsome than the queen, judging from those Ye Luzi novels.

"Do you have to describe your comrades in arms as...?" Draco, a reserve member of the Merlin Knights, frowned, and the corners of his lips moved slightly - he sneered at the possibility that the great mage would fall in love with a Gryffindor, "Isn't the end of that Saria who wrote random articles not enough warning?"

Joshua shook his head, "Of course not." He retorted, "That's groundless nonsense and slander, it's not the same as the crusade party looking for candy from clues."

Jian Tian, ​​a notorious entertainment tabloid reporter in the wizarding world, likes to dig out some weird gossip, especially loves to arrange gossip about dead celebrities.This Salia once spread rumors—'The reason why King Arthur married the queen was because Master Merlin was barren. '

……

Leaving aside whether male wizards can bear children, just this inexplicable and unproven act of splashing dirty water is enough to make fans of those legendary characters outraged.

That afternoon, the newspaper that had been up and down for a whole year completely disappeared in the history of the wizarding world.

"But I have to say, there is a good point in her nonsense." Joshua tilted his head slightly, and then said, "Parents' genes will affect the next generation." He looked darkly from Draco's head flashed, "I have to get in touch with those girls seriously, and be responsible to myself."

"I don't agree." Draco didn't even think about the reason, and said directly, "You go to the dance with me."

Joshua rolled his eyes, turned around, leaned his back against the sink, raised his eyebrows at Draco who was hiding displeasure in his eyes, and reminded, "Excuse me, do you still remember what you said to me at the beginning?" Is it?" He raised his tone, imitating Draco's usual speaking posture and continued, "Just wait for me to find a girl so that you can get out of the marriage."

"Then you should still remember." Draco took a step forward and looked down at him, "You have to find someone better than me." He leaned slightly and looked at Joshua from bottom to top , the corners of his eyes were raised slightly, and he said, "Improve the genes of the next generation? I think I'm pretty good."

Joshua was taken aback, his heart beating faster.

"It's a pity that you won't meet another me." With a meaningful tone, Draco curled the corners of his lips and straightened his back.

Joshua looked at Draco with a complex expression, trying to find out something from his flawless face, but in the end he could only shrug his shoulders in compromise, "That's really hard enough." He turned his face and chuckled He made a sound, then turned his gaze to see Draco opened his mouth unwillingly, his face flickered with a bit of struggle, and finally he said, "I'm going to take a bath."

Hey……

Joshua picked the toothpaste cap.Sure enough, he was young and vigorous, and he couldn't bear it before the other party had anything to do with it.He threw the toothpaste into the wooden box - if Draco dared to say something about 'socialist brotherhood' to him at the end of this entanglement... he would have rubbed that damned 'vixen' on the ground.

No rush, no rush Joshua—he took a deep breath, took his time, and didn't spoil the moment.

Draco, who was turned away from him, raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked out after a moment of hesitation, and couldn't help but look back at the boy in the mirror when he got to the door—he was looking at himself.The two gazes were intertwined in the mirror, revealing a warmth that neither of them noticed. Those silver-gray eyes watched the bright black eyes dodge after a while, and its owner said with a gloomy expression, "Joshua."

"Huh?" Gryffindor, with lowered eyebrows, wondered if he had entered the wrong college.

"The saying 'everyone loves Malfoy' is actually not true." There were so many emotions in his eyes that Joshua might not be able to understand even if he looked up. Standing by my side all the time." Draco turned his face away, closing the door behind him, "What I want—is all his future attention."

What do you mean?

Joshua raised his head abruptly, his movements were faster than his brain's reaction speed, and he opened the door—Draco was standing on the edge of the bar pouring water, he raised his eyebrows when he saw Joshua's swift movements, and asked teasingly asked, "Are there cockroaches in the bathroom?"

"You..." Joshua squinted his eyes and looked up and down Draco, who seemed to have nothing happened, and the latter looked at him suspiciously.

"Did you take the wrong medicine?" Joshua asked cautiously and obliquely, "Or... spring has finally come?"

Draco raised his eyebrows narrowly, and put down his water glass, "Joshua."

"Forget it." Joshua frowned and waved his hands again - he missed the best time, and now asking Draco this guy must not be telling the truth again.But he can at least be sure of one thing - Draco must have some unreasonable ideas!Maybe not less than him!

Thinking of this, Joshua couldn't help curling the corners of his lips proudly, his eyes gliding over Draco's deep brows and eyes - the feeling of getting a response brought a rare look of arrogance on his face, and he always maintained this smug look The happy face followed Draco to the match scene——

The National College Knowledge League has attracted at least [-] teams to participate and dozens of media reports.After the tense final, Joshua walked through the crowd and finally found the beaming champion team backstage.

"Hi, Ned."

In a happy mood, Joshua stood on tiptoe and waved to the little fat man who was holding the trophy and gave him a big kiss. He frowned and revealed a trace of doubt.He passed by a few girls who looked a little shy when they saw Draco—tsk, I'm afraid you are more than ten years late.Joshua raised his eyebrows proudly, and once again set his sights on Ned, "Where's Peter?"

In an instant, the atmosphere of the champion team who had been discussing the distribution of bonuses and where to "indulge" in high spirits dropped several degrees, and even the two students sneered unceremoniously in front of their faces.

Joshua glanced around at the students with different performances, and hesitantly frowned, "What happened?"

"Obviously." Draco took a few steps forward to block those unkind eyes, straightened his cuffs gracefully, and said sideways, "That Mr. Parker didn't arrive at the scene, he broke his promise."

"No, no, no." Ned shoved the trophy into the hand of the person next to him, stepped forward and hurriedly explained, "Peter was just caught by some..." He waved his arms nervously, and said in a mess, "Some very important things Stumbled! So can't come here. Yes, those things are urgent."

"Ha, maybe." He retorted with sarcasm, "Peter Parker would have something more important than participating in the national competition. I said he shouldn't have come back in the first place." Another man in a uniform The child—Joshua glanced at the name tag on his chest—Flash, snorted, and said without shame, "Who knows what he did. Anyway, this kind of dishonesty hurts It would be nice to have a guy that we almost couldn't play get kicked out."

"Flash!" Ned warned in a low voice.

Joshua frowned slightly, and hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you come? You were fired?" Because of the noise in the venue, he had to shout at the top of his voice, "What are you talking about?" Looking at Ned, he said with a puzzled expression, "Peter went out with us at the same time yesterday, why, didn't he get on the school bus?"

"No." Liz shook her head, her face was a little ugly, "He arrived at the hotel with us, but... didn't come to the competition." She turned her face away in disappointment, as if refusing to talk about it.I'm afraid Peter Parker's personal score is already infinitely negative.

"Who knows where he went, and he can't get through the phone if he is not in the hotel." Another girl complained, "Sure enough, Parker should not be so casually let Parker return to the team. It is obvious that he himself proposed not to participate in the game."

Peter, who was unable to come for 'unknown reasons', was almost on everyone's blacklist.

"He's not in the hotel? And didn't come back all night?" Joshua frowned for a while, then looked at Ned and asked for confirmation, "Are you sure Peter wasn't coerced when he explained the reason to you?" He paused and frowned, "Can you still contact him? Right now."

Ned shook his head like a rattle. "He's off."

Joshua glanced at the nervous little fat man and asked, "Didn't you call the police?"

"What, what?" The students looked at him in surprise, and asked in confusion, "Why did you call the police?"

Joshua was about to faint. He first glanced at Ned and then at the students, and said in disbelief, "So, a high school student stayed out all night and couldn't be contacted. You didn't worry that he might be in danger. ?” He looked up at Viking, who was standing aside at some time, and continued to 'press' Ned, "You really can't get in touch with him?" Joshua carefully examined the honest-looking little fat man, trying to See something in his reaction—for example, he might know about Peter's other layer of identity.

"I can't contact him. But Peter will not be in any danger." Ned didn't know how to put his hands and feet in a panic.Two hours ago, when he lied to these team members, those people didn't ask too much about Peter's whereabouts at all, so he didn't think of a complete set of words at all. It wasn't that he was highly concentrated, he almost said the wrong lines.

"I can send someone to look for it." Viking, who came here to watch Peter's game, frowned slightly, and said with a stern face, "I'm here, and there are barely some people who can use it."

Joshua glanced at them, but didn't answer. Instead, he pulled Draco and walked a few steps aside, "Can you contact that Stark?" Peter had a personal relationship with that Iron Man. Secret, maybe the gentleman might have put some sort of tracker on Peter.

Draco glanced at him sideways, and slowly took out his phone, "Are you worried about him?"

"You're still young after all." Joshua frowned thinking of Peter's age, "What if something really happens..." He paused, then said in a low voice, "I don't think you believe the little boy in his hand." Did the guy pick it up? I guess he might have had a face-to-face meeting with a smuggling/smuggling gang or something."

The smile on the corner of Draco's mouth didn't change, but his aura flickered in vain, and he simply dialed a number.

"Well... Joshua." Just when Draco had just contacted that Happy, Ned came over 'sneaky', looked back at the team, and said falteringly, "Peter phone, do you want to listen to it?"

Joshua narrowed his eyes and took the phone directly—"Peter?"

"Hey, Joshua?" It was indeed Peter's voice, and the little spider who was wandering around somewhere quickly summed up all the words in one sentence - "I'm fine now. Can you give Ned the phone, please?" I need to speak to him urgently."

Joshua's face froze, he restrained the desire to roll his eyes and threw out the mobile phone he had held within two seconds, and then he was cut in half by a pair of beautiful hands - Liz's questioning like a storm People have no power to fight back. It seems that this girl who attaches great importance to this competition is really very angry.Joshua felt that if he were Peter, he would probably crawl out along the airwaves to bow and apologize to the young lady at this moment.

"We'll go to the Washington Monument later." Ned, who didn't have the guts to ask for his phone back, gave a thumbs up and pointed back, "The champion team can visit the restricted area of ​​the monument, you guys..." He looked at Draco, He asked tentatively, "Would you like to go there and take a tour? You have never been to Washington, have you?"

Joshua glanced at Draco, then turned his head to look at the good weather outside the window, "How is it?"

Draco glanced at him, with his usual polite smile when facing outsiders, but as long as Joshua looked carefully, he could find that there was a real smile for himself hidden in his eyes.He raised his eyebrows and said, "As long as you are happy."

Joshua was indeed very happy. He and Draco walked around the monument, and accidentally saw Michelle sitting outside reading a book. He went over curiously and asked, "Aren't you going together?"

"Compared to the dark space, I still prefer the vast wilderness." Michelle closed the cover, stood up politely and replied, "I have to go to the protest at the gate of the government after that, so I can't waste time."

Joshua nodded half-knowingly, and just about to say something, Draco grabbed his wrist and yanked it—the overwhelming smell of men's perfume mixed with a scent of medicine, he supported Draco with one hand Ke's thick chest, rubbed his nose with one hand, and said with sore eyes, "What's wrong?"

Draco's face was very serious, he looked up and said hesitantly, "The monument...is it going to collapse?"

"what?!"
