Author's Notes: My first post here! I’m not sure how universal this slang is, but in my part of the UK an ATM machine is a ‘hole in the wall’.



Draco was getting money from a hole in the wall when he fell in love with Harry Potter.

He’d hated the idea of a Muggle date. To him, Muggles were vermin: as with rats, he was more scared than revolted. Draco had been considering feigning illness.

But he didn’t want to do that, and besides Harry said he’d teach him how to withdraw money from Muggle bank accounts. So he tried, and got frustrated with the buttons.

A Muggle behind them grumbled and Draco flinched. Instantly he felt a protective hand on the small of his back.

That was it.
