Disclaimer... Yet again they're not mine. All of the characters, and in fact the whole HP Universe, belongs to JK Rowling. I'm just having a wee play and making no profit.
Dedication... This one is to all the hard working people at the cheesy nachos factory. Amen!
Randomness... Why do men have nipples? Why is belly button fluff always blue? These are the questions that keep me awake nights.
~ Chapter 5 ~
I stretched out my long legs as I relaxed on the tartan blanket spread over the ground. Lucius and I had climbed quite high into the hills, talking when difficult terrain had not made it impossible. Again my escapades with my friends, along with my wolf heritage meant I found it easy to keep up with Lucius, despite him being more practised. When we had reached a good height Lucius had pulled out a miniaturised picnic basket and blanket from a pocket and enlarged them with his wand. We were now both lying back, replete, staring at the occasional clouds left from the storms.
Lucius pointed at a cloud. "Norwegian Ridgback." I looked over at it.
"I'd say it was more of a Welsh Green." Lucius laughed.
"You're just being contrary." He said. I rolled to face him, head resting on my left hand, propped up on my elbow.
"I'm never contrary." I said with a grin. "I'm just incredibly knowledgeable about dragons."
Lucius laughed again and rolled so he was mirroring my posture. "So, O Knowledgeable One, what is the main characteristic of a Welsh Green?" I began to speak but he interrupted me. "And I mean apart from being green." I laughed as he guessed what immediate answer was going to be. His answering laugh caused a pleasant ache down low in my abdomen. I wanted to kiss him. There was only about a foot between us, an easy distance to cross. As I pondered taking the risk the grey eyes I was looking into came closer. Lucius shifted his body, closing the gap between us and placing a hand on my waist. As he drew closer still I closed my eyes. The first touch of our lips was gentle, hesitant. We had both known that this moment was coming, but still it was like a shock through my body. The pleasant ache blossomed into full-blown arousal as his soft lips moved against my own.
Lucius wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer, our bodies pressing together. It was clear Lucius' body was reacting in the same way mine was. I had never expected such fire from someone who looked so like ice. It was not my first kiss with a man, but it was the first time I had felt such fire and passion whilst not imagining Sirius as the other person.
The kiss broke and Lucius pulled back to look at me, his eyes roaming all over my face.
"You're so beautiful." He breathed. "Why did I not see it before?" I smiled. I understood. How had I not seen this blonde Adonis before? Had I been so Sirius-blind as to ignore things that had been right in front of me? I made a pleased noise, a low growl deep in my throat. Lucius' eyes widened slightly and he pulled me in for another kiss. This one was deeper, more intense. Lucius rolled us so I was lying on my back, his body on top of mine. His weight pressed him more firmly against my groin and it was glorious. I arched up into him, pleased when my own groan elicited an answering one. I was lost in a haze of lust, feeling every part of his body against my own, his hands curled in my hair and touching my neck and back. My own hands were on his back, holding him against me as though he might suddenly disappear.
A shriek brought us out of our reverie. Our heads turned as one to see a women pull a young child back around the rock we had set up our picnic behind, out of sight and the wind. We could hear her speaking sharply, and though it was impossible to hear the exact words, there could be no doubt as to what they were. We looked at each other slightly guiltily and burst our laughing.
"I think this might not be the place to do this." Lucius said, still on top of me and leaning in for a quick kiss. I laughed again.
"Hmmm, maybe not." We kissed again briefly but pulled apart again to stave off temptation. He rolled off me and lay still, deep in thought. I raised an eyebrow in question at him and he reached out to push it back down. We both laughed.
"My family are away for two weeks." Lucius said. I blinked at the apparent non-sequitor. "I'm taking a break before work starting September so I have to house to myself." I began to see where this was going. Lucius pressed close again and kissed me. "So do you want to come back with me? Stay in the house with me for a few days or so?" It was not a request that need much thinking about on my part. The thought of going home now, to sleep in my bed with only the memory of this to keep me warm was unthinkable. I grinned and nodded. We kissed again, unable to stop from touching for even a few moments. As I felt the slight rasp of his stubble against my own I did not have to be a wizard to know that I was becoming rapidly infatuated.
