The Happy Life!

My mind started wondering in spin class, so here you go:

• After Hogwarts, Draco becomes a professional Quidditch player, but he’s not with a major team

• Harry and Ginny have remained friends post break-up, and Ginny is killing it playing for the Harpies

• Draco wants to improve himself so does research into muggle sports improvement techniques

• He finds out about yoga

• he starts going to yoga and spin class at a muggle studio in central London

•Meanwhile Harry starts yoga to try and calm himself after the war, but keeps it to himself

• The spin and yoga classes at the studio are Harry’s self care

• They both go on different days for 6 months to the same studio

•Draco is very flexible and bloody speedy on a bike, useful skills for a seeker

• He is friendly and open with the muggles from the studio. Carefree and kind and soft and happy

• Harry is quite the lad amoung the muggles at the studio, he jokes with the instructors and the regulars alike

•Then, a bank holiday forces classes to be cancelled on Monday, but Harry has had a tough week and can’t wait until Thursday so books in for a Tuesday spin class

•So, Harry shows up, puts his water and towel on a bike in the front row and heads to the toilet

•turns out Draco’s regular class is a Tuesday

(I know, who saw that coming?!)

• Harry walks back in, massaging the bridge of his nose with his left hand and holding the his glasses in his right

• Then he sees him. Draco Malfoy. Only on the bloody bike next to his.

•they catch eyes, stopped staring for a moment

• Harry has not seen Draco like this before, he’s in a tank top - his hair is up off of his face, his pale skin glowing under the lights of the spin studio

•Draco looks at Harry, his hair is still a mess, his old football shorts and worn t-shirt are so typical of him and he still has those bloody round framed glasses.

• “Potter.”

• “Malfoy.”

• “oh, so you’ve met!” Says one of the regulars, Jane, who knows them both and has been talking to Draco about her daughter as they set up their bikes

• “Uh, we, uh, went to school together” Harry stumbled onto his bike as he spoke

•”Small world” she chuckled

•”Isn’t it just” Draco agreed

• Harry gave him a coy smile before asking Jane about her daughter

•”you know I could set you up with the nanny, Harry! I’m sure she could do with a strapping lad like you in her life, don’t you think, Draco?”

•”He’s got a girlfriend” Draco said at the same time that Harry said “Not really what I’m looking for, right now, Jane” before addressing Draco, “Ginny and I broke up.”

•”but you were papped at the match last week”

•”you read the gossip columns in the prophet?” Harry was genuinely shocked

•”What’s the prophet?” Jane chuckled, “you, Harry- ‘papped’”

• “It’s our old school blog. It keeps up with the graduated students” Harry blags, which Draco looks thankful for. “Anyways, Jane. I’m not really looking for a girl right now.”

•”oh, OH!” Jane says, realising. Then the instructor sets up and the class is just about to start.

•”and, Malfoy- I was at the match because we’re still mates, and who doesn’t love a bit of quidditch.”

•”Oh, I…”

•”I could still beat you to the snitch, though” Harry said with a smirk as the class properly started

I’m sorry?

That’s a challenge.

Oreos aquired.

I’m going to hide them in a super simple place at first

And find a new hiding spot

Hehehe

Now to hide them right under her nose

Aaaaand put them where she would never find them in a million years

:)

You get some cookies! You get some cookies! Everyone gets cookies!

Then a devious idea struck me…

I put the remaining Oreos in a baggie to hide by themselves. Now to “hide” the package where it will probably be found…

And pin the actual stash to the inside of the closet wall

“During my second month of nursing school, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?” Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. “Absolutely,” said the professor. “In your careers you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say ‘Hello’.”

you can kill your current life without dying. you can kill this version of you and make a new one.
