They walked in and were amazed at what they saw. In the center of the large room was a gigantic bathtub that could easily pass as a swimming pool. Around it were taps with various colored jewels encrusted on them. Harry and Remus walked around the bathtub playing with each different tap, turning one on, and letting the colored bubbles pour out, then turning it off and moving to the next one. They finally decided the liked the Sapphire and the Emerald ones best, so they turned them on and let the tub fill slowly with green and blue bubbles of many different sizes. When it was full, the taps turned off by themselves, and they boys looked at each other as if to ask what to do next. They were slightly light headed by the wonderful smells coming from the bubble filled tub, it smelled like watermelon, and blueberries. 'This is so wonderful' thought Harry. 'It smells just like home when mommy would bake her special pies for tea.'
"Um, so it's err, filled." Said Remus with a funny expression on his face. "I guess we should get in now then?"
"Yea I guess so..." Harry walked over to a corner and started to take off his robes. He noticed Remus staring at him and quickly wrapped a towel around his waste, leaving him naked except for the towel. He turned around, a blush on his face, and asked. "Is something wrong Remy?"
"Oh!" 'How long was I staring?' Remus felt his face grow warm and quickly turned away. "Sorry, nothing." He undressed and wrapped a towel around his waste too. "So, should we get in now?" he asked keeping his back to Harry and sitting on the edge of the tub (a/n:*cough* pool *cough*)
Harry sat down next to Remus. "You look tense, are you sure you're ok?" he asked putting his hand on Remus's shoulder.
Remus gave a little jump and blushed madly. "I-I" he gave a small sigh. "To tell you the truth, um...well...no." he said blushing even more.
"What's wrong, you can tell me anything." Said Harry giving him a worried look.
"I-I um, I t-think I'm well, err...u-um, I think im gay Harry." He said quietly. "I'll understand if you think I'm a freak now, I mean why would you want to be my friend when I'm gay?" he started to stand up. 'Now Harry will never want to talk to me again! Why does this always happen to me!?' he thought furiously.
Harry grabbed his hand to hold him back. "No Remus, I still want to be your friend. You see, I'm gay too. Ever since the train ride, I've liked someone who has grown very close to my heart, and when I didn't even think professor Tuskino was remotely pretty, I knew it. I mean, I'm not stupid, I know what other boys think a hot girl is, but I just find one boy more attractive than anyone else I've ever met." He said standing up to face Remus now. 'Well Harry, if you don't tell him now, you might as well never tell him.'
Remus interrupted his thoughts.
"Harry?" he was shaking from fear and blushing even more now after what he had heard. "W-who is h-he?"
Harry took a deep breath and looked into Remus's eyes, searching for something, love was it? Maybe love, or maybe something else, Harry didn't know. "Remus, Remus, i-it's ...it's...it's you." He said waiting for Remus to push him away, or tell him that he thought that was all nice but he didn't feel the same way. But that didn't happen. Instead Remus took his hand.
"Oh Harry, I can't believe this is happening. You see, I knew I was gay when I met you. You are so cute, and really nice too." He whispered.
Before either of them knew what was happening, they moved even closer, their faces inches apart. Harry made the last move and leaned in, covering the small space that had been left, pressing his lips against Remus's. It was a small kiss, a quick one, but full of passion. Remus pulled back, very surprised. It was his first kiss, and he thought it was Harry's too from the look he had on his face.
There was an awkward silence. Then suddenly they both started giggling madly. Neither of them knew what was so funny, but continued to laugh anyways. After a moment Harry stopped laughing long enough to say, "So Remy, that bath is getting cold," before pushing Remus over the edge. He landed in the water with a small splash. He was still under water, and the towel he had been wearing floated to the top. Remus surfaced and glared at Harry in mock anger. "Now, now, Harry, we don't play foul here, unless it can be returned!" he said swimming to the edge grabbing the end of Harry's towel, pulling it off him sending Harry into a stumble as he fell forward and landed right behind Remus. Remus turned around looking for Harry, but didn't see him. Suddenly he heard someone surface behind him. Hands suddenly tickled his side, throwing him into fits of laughter. "H- Harry, stop!" he gasped out.
Harry obliged and stopped tickling him, and instead wrapped his arms around Remus's neck from behind.
"Oh no you don't mister, not without proper payback you don't!" Remus spun around quickly and dived at Harry, tickling his middle without mercy. Harry writhed around laughing, and trying to grab Remus's hands to stop the tickle torture.
Finally Harry managed to get a hold on one of Remus's wrists. He pulled Remus towards him, pulling him into a tight hug. "Can't tickle when you can't move, can you?" he asked in triumph.
Remus yawned. "Nope, you can't." He said suddenly becoming very tired. He snuggled into Harry placing his head on Harry's chest.
"You know, you're so cute like this." He said slowly swimming over to one of the many benches on the sides of the tub.
They lay like that for a few moments. Remus with his head on Harry's naked chest, Harry with his arms wrapped around Remus holding him tight.
After a while, Remus broke the silence. "I love you Harry." He mumbled sleepily.
"I love you too, Remus." Whispered Harry kissing his forehead. The two slowly fell asleep in each other's arms, still in the bathtub. Not caring what people would think when they weren't in their dorms the next morning.
