Halfway across the entrance hall they find the way upstairs barred by Crabbe and Goyle. Malfoy tries to seize the package from Victor.

"You shouldn't try to take things that don't belong to you," says Victor.

"That's a broomstick," he starts, narrowing his eyes. "You'll be in for it this time, Evans—"

"Wingardium Leviosa!"

Draco's left shoe is lifted off the ground—with his foot still in it—which causes him to stumble and fall. "Iroko—"

"Oh, you know my name, fancy that."

"Hello, Dayo."

Crabbe and Goyle step towards Dayo menacingly but then Professor Flitwick shows up.

"Not arguing, I hope, boys?" he squeaks.

"Evans has been sent a broomstick, Professor! And Iroko hexed me."

"Is that true?" he asks Dayo.

"Of course not, I don't know any hexes."

"Professor McGonagall told me not to open this package at the breakfast table so I'm taking it back to the Gryffindor common room to open it there."

"Oh, yes," he beams at Victor, "Professor McGonagall told me all about the special circumstances, Evans. And what model is it?"

Okay even if Malfoy gets his wits back and tells on him detention is totally worth seeing that look on Malfoy's face.

"The letter said Nimbus Two Thousand."

"How splendid! Well, I won't keep you any longer."

"B-but Professor! Iroko—"

"I used the Wingardium Leviosa on him," he sighs.

He blinks. "Well, that's... technically forbidden, magic isn't to be used in the corridors... but it's not a hex. I could take points from Slytherin..."

"No!"

"Then I suppose I should get going."

Off he scoots.

"Well let's go!"

Draco scrambles to get up.
