The sun was setting as Albus drove across the bridge. For the umpteenth time his hand slowly irked across the gear stick to Scorpius' thigh, and for the umpteenth time Scorpius brushed it away immediately.

"Keep your hands on the wheel", he repeated. And before Albus could turn his sly smile at Scorpius, he added "And your eyes on the road, please." Albus sighed.

"You're boring", he pouted, but obeyed.

"Yeah, well, sorry for wanting to arrive at Luna's in one piece."

Soon they were driving on land again, and Scorpius looked out the window on the flat landscape that was bathing in beautiful light.

"What's that?" he asked suddenly, pointing. Albus followed his finger.

"Windmills", he answered, redirecting his gaze at the road.

"Windmills. What do they do?" Albus shrugged.

"You can ask Luna when we arrive", he suggested. "She explained it once, but it really wasn't that interesting."

"Hrm", was all Scorpius replied, not being entirely sure he wanted to ask Luna to explain anything.

Of course, when they arrived, he asked her anyway, his Ravenclaw mind needing to know. She told them they were good for keeping wackspurts away, and while he didn't really believe that to be their main function, he also knew he wasn't going to get a better answer out of her, and so he put it out of his mind until he could locate a decent dictionary. Or Hermione.

Later, they were lying in bed, listening to the mosquitos buzzing around, Albus roaming his hands all over Scorpius' body. Scorpius reveled in the touch, until other parts of his body became too interested.

"Al, stop, I... they're just in the next-" Albus cut him off with a kiss.

"And here I was, thinking you're the smart one", he muttered, and then cast a wandless silencing charm. "There. Wasn't so hard, right? Can I go back to devouring your body now?"

Scorpius smiled.

"Please, be my guest."
