Prompts: James/Scorpius, Clock Tower, A Baby, the phrase 'You do a good hand job'
Good Job
"So how did you find out about this place?" Scorpius asked wrapping his arms around his chest, the late September air felt a lot colder at this altitude, though that could have been the wind
James just shrugged, wrapping his arms around the shorter boy standing in front of him, as they both look out towards the horizon
"You cold?"
"I'm fine" The Slytherin replied leaning backwards into the embrace "So, hanging around abandoned clock towers, when did that become a hobby?"
"You're not going to let this drop are you?"
"Do I ever" The teasing smile in Scorpius' voice was evident
Sighing James tightened his arms around Scorpius "You know how I never really got along with my parents?" he started, watching the back of Scorpius' head nod "Well for a while I went to live with my uncle Bill, well for some of the time they were looking after the grandkid and Merlin was that one noisy baby, I just had to get out of that house, I found this place and used some magic to break in – this balcony is my favourite place"
After that confession James when uncharacteristically quiet, Scorpius remained silent, giving his older Gryffindor boyfriend a chance to start a new conversation. When it became evident that the other boy was lost in thoughts Scorpius took it upon himself to bring him back to reality
"You do a good hand job!"
James had a moment of 'did I hear that correctly' before he burst out laughing feeling happier than he could remember. Frowning at this 'girly' thought he turned Scorpius round and kissed him on his pointy nose, bringing one hand up to move the Slytherin scarf away from his mouth before demanding a proper kiss that Scorpius was only too happy to return
