A/N Really pointless… Erm, please R&R if you like. If you don't… R&R anyway. Thanks!

With You
The Christmas air nipped sharply at the back of my throat, forcing a cough out of me. A shiver tickled my spine, my breath billowed out in clouds in front of me.
"You okay, Oliver?" Warmth shot through my arm as he intertwined his fingers with mine. I looked down into his sweet brown eyes, and I knew I was just fine.
"Yeah, Percy. I'm okay." I couldn't stop the smile from spreading across my numb face. It was instinct, something always there when I was with my Percy. And why should it be any other way? Smiles and kisses and candy. That's the way school love is supposed to be… right?
I could practically hear Winter's bells tinkling through the air, over the snow covered wonderland of my waning childhood. The lake sparkled silently in the distance, the trees were topped with white, snowflakes fluttered prettily to the icy ground. Everything was perfect, the perfect time, everything was always perfect with Percy. My Percy.
Percy slipped his arms around my neck and planted a kiss on my frosty lips. I hugged him tightly, for love more then warmth.
Soon enough, we would have to reenter that beautiful palace, not too far off, where the jealous Penelope lurked wherever they went, and the twins were always wreaking havoc, and Harry, Ron and Hermione would surely find themselves in yet another life threatening situation… But then, just then, was my time with this red haired wonder.
So graceful, such a beautiful know-it-all, and, who would have guessed it? He wanted me. Of all the people in the entire world, me.
Percy pushed his glasses up his nose, and leaned forward for another kiss. I carefully pressed my lips against his, savoring the feelings rushing through me, and the strength that seemed to erupt from the most unreachable part of my soul.
Hand in hand, we headed back towards the castle, where, no doubt, voices were already waiting to spout and destroy the moment…
I could already envision it in my head.
The twins… "Hey, Perc, er… It's not against the rules to throw school property out the windows, is it? I mean, technically it's still on school grounds, right?"
Penelope… "Percy, darling! Where have you been? Um… I need my personal time with my honey-bunny now, Wood…"
And then McGonagal… "Weasley! Have you seen you brother? Or Potter? Granger? We can't seem to track them down. Oh, good lord! What have they gotten themselves into now?"
But now, just for now, this was my time with Percy.
I paused, hand still linked with his, and pulled him toward me again.
Close enough so our breath collided, I whispered to him, "You do know I love you, Percy?"
He blushed and smiled as if pleased, then murmured back, "I hope so…"
We walked a few more paces.
"Because…" He continued, the blush not having left him, "I love you too, you know. I really love you, Oliver."
