Pairing: Percy/Oliver
Word Count: 278
Prompt: popsicle
"Oliver, no, I have to study," Percy said as Oliver tried to get him to sneak out to Hogsmeade with him.
"Ah, come off it, Perce," Oliver laughed. "You're always studying! If you want, we'll go and grab a few of those Muggle candies you're so fond of – whatmacallit, popknuts? Popgalleons? No, popsicles. Yeah, we'll even go and grab a couple of popsicles from Honeydukes if you want."
Percy looked from his books to his boyfriend's earnest face. He hadn't had popsicles since the last Hogsmeade weekend two months ago. Maybe –
"No, Oliver. I need to study!"
Oliver scowled for a moment. This wasn't going the way he had hoped. He hadn't wanted to do this, but Percy left him no choice –
"Oliver, what are you doing? Oliver? Oliv-"
After a few moments, Percy broke away from the kiss, glaring at Oliver.
"What was that about?"
"You were talking too much," Oliver replied, flashing Percy his most charming grin.
"Oliver," Percy said warningly.
"Fine! Perce, you've been studying nonstop for the past week! You need to take a break sometime! Come on, we'll take a trip to Hogsmeade. It'll be a date. You can take some time off studying, and I won't even complain if you want to hit the books when we return."
"Oliver –"
"Percy, please?" Oliver pouted, giving Percy his best puppy dog eyes.
"You're not going to leave this alone, are you?" Percy asked, sounding amused despite himself.
"Nope! So, does that mean we're going?"
"Okay, fine."
"Yay!" Oliver cried out, before bouncing off to their dorm to get ready.
Percy watched him go with a fond smile. His boyfriend was such a child.
