It had been weeks and Draco still wasn't use to this new world. Everything was just off, and he wasn't getting memories of what the old him had been like. It was starting to frustrate him. Pansy was still basically the same person, but the history was different, and Draco didn't like being around people who looked at him and expected him to be someone he wasn't. When he talked to Merlin he could see the disappointment in his eyes, even though Merlin was the one who'd fucked and impregnated his mother, and Charlie Weasley's face when he looked at him was currently making Draco skip Care of Magical Creatures.

He looked up at the ceiling of the Slytherin common room and contemplated the possibility of trying to go back again to change things and see what happened. Or maybe he could send someone else back and then he'd at least remember whatever new reality was created. As long as it wasn't really multiple realities. This was making his brain hurt. Draco looked up from sulking at the ceiling and spotted Rex Lestrange. Someone who didn't know him, who he didn't know, who he'd gotten along with in Hogsmede before he'd disappeared with Rider Macnair. Draco got up and moved to sit beside the other boy. Fuck it. "Running away from school for a week sounds like heaven. Did you have fun?"

"It's completely safe." Rex assured Draco as he pulled out of the drive way and began to drive down the road. He glanced around the streets, having not been home in so long. It didn't feel like home.

But, he smiled at Draco. "Maybe a bit. If you aren't very familiar with muggles, at least. Which I assume you aren't." He tapped his fingers against the steering wheel. "Did you know your family once tried to marry a muggle? The Queen?"

"I'm not," Draco promised, holing on to his seat and trying to seem more relaxed than he was. The car moved just a little bit fast, although if he imagined it was a broom it wasn't as terrifying. He missed flying. "My parents never really saw the point of making me learn about them."

He glanced at Rex and laughed, raising an eyebrow at him. "How did you find that out?" Draco asked. "I know all about my family history, but we try and keep that sort of thing quiet. It was before the statute of secrecy passed. And look at my grandfather and Tom. Malfoys like power. It's understandable."

	"We learned it in our history class at Beauxbatons." Rex admitted as he pushed in a muggle cd into the car. He listened as the music came on and smiled at Draco, turning onto the main road. "We learned a lot about your family, actually. And mine, which was awkward." He ran a hand through his hair and drummed on the steering wheel. "Do you like this sort of music?"

	Draco glanced at the radio as it started to play music. "I bet history is better at Beauxbatons. Not taught by a senile ghost who only cares about goblin wars." The music sounded sort of... familiar. He nodded. "I've heard it before, I think," Draco said. "I had a... a friend who played a lot of muggle music for me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Had?" Rex asked, arching a brow at Draco. "What happened? I miss all of my friends from Beauxbatons." He paused and frowned. "What history teacher do you have?" He asked and then laughed. But, he tapped his fingers and nodded his head to the music again. "This is The Beatles. I'm very fond of them. Even if most of them are dead now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Binns. Doesn't everyone have Binns for history?" he asked. He hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to explain Charlie Weasley and what had happened to someone who couldn't know all the details of it.

"It's complicated," Draco said, leaning back in his seat. "When I lost my memories he got wiped out completely and then things were... It's difficult to explain." He shrugged. "Honestly, it's probably better if I don't go into it." He looked at Rex and smiled. "I like this music. The car isn't as terrifying as I thought it was going to be anymore. It's a bit like flying."
