Harry heard the ancient front door of Grimmauld Place creak open and then slam closed. Draco was always overzealou­s with his wandless magic. Harry padded into the entry still barefoot and in his pajamas to see if he needed any help with the groceries... Harry stopped short, when he came around the corner and couldn’t see Draco behind the wall of toilet paper he was carrying.

“Er, Draco?” Harry asked, not really sure what to say and hoping it was in fact Draco behind the stack of white rolls, instead of a different psychotic wizard.

“Harry, you won’t believe the madhouse it was out there! I made it just in time, these were the last three packages of toilet paper in the entire grocery aisle. Not to mention how bare the meat department was getting. I might have gone slightly overboard, but I don’t want to have to go back.”…

“There are only three of us. What do we need that much toilet paper for?”

Draco stepped around his purchases, leaving them floating behind him, so that he could scowl at Harry properly. “You never know...”

“Sure, Malfoy.” Harry kept from rolling his eyes, but by the look Draco shot him, he didn’t think he was hiding the fact that he wanted to. “Do you want me to give you a hand with…” Harry waved at the floating bags and array of items. “Er, all this.”

“No, you can keep your ungrateful hands off my supplies.” He huffed and headed to the kitchen, his items bobbing and twitching behind him...

Harry followed a few steps behind, trying not to laugh. Draco didn’t like being laughed at, unless he was purposely trying to make you laugh, then he expected you to laugh and loudly.
