"You're telling me that you convinced Dumbledore to get us our own dorm?"
They had met up in the library and were sitting in one of the back tables where few could see them.
Harry grinned and nodded. "Healer's orders."
"What healer?"
"Madam Pomfrey and I."
"I wasn't aware you were a healer, Potter."
"No, but I was the research behind it all," Harry said and then explained all the information he had found.
"You diagnosed me and they bought it?" Draco asked, incredulously.

Harry chuckled. "Hey, gotten use what you got."

"Neither. I was just coming to tell you actually." Draco said and explained what Harry had done. "I guess I'm moving into the Head dorm tonight."
"Dumbledore is letting you two share a dorm alone?"
"It's not like anyone but you and Snape know what's going on between us. But this way, we can continue to be together."
