We snog sometimes. I mean, not usually on a whim except. But Daphs understands roles and acting, and she knows that there's a role I've got to play - it's the role of who I would have been, had I grown up to be the Draco Malfoy my parents planned on. That Draco Malfoy would be dating someone like Daphne Greengrass. He could date Pansy if she grew up to be the Pansy she was meant to be, before Regulus messed her up, but Pansy's too different now, and she's not a very good actress, most of the time.
The real Draco Malfoy - the one that you know (but who has to pretend not to exist too much, lest it threaten the masquerade of the other Draco Malfoy) - he.. I mean I, I can't ever have the 'normal life' I really want... can't now, anyway. Maybe not ever. So why even dream about it? It will just muck things up.
I wouldn't tell Daphne about all of this - the Order, the full extent my plans, and so forth - unless I did for some reason decide I wanted a life with her someday.

But I don't see that happening.
