My guess: Draco's worst fear is Voldemort.  Sure, he supports what
Voldemort is doing, but he certainly seemed afraid of the name when
Harry used it.  Draco has spent his years at Hogwarts bullying other
students while hiding behind Crabbe and Goyle.  I think the spoiled
little brat would be petrified at the thought of putting himself in
actual danger.

Draco has definitely let the world (or at least Harry) know where he
stands in the upcoming battle, but I think he's hoping against hope
that the whole thing is over before Voldemort considers Draco old
enough to be recruited.  I'm certain he wouldn't have the courage to
say no if asked, nor the courage to carry out his orders if he says yes.
