Harry was curious as to where Severus had gone off to. He stood from the chair where he was currently lounging and looked around the hotel room. He found Severus on the balcony looking out on the ocean. The cool night air and the gentle breeze causing the silken black hair to move lightly around his shoulders as he thought.
Harry thought the man looked so peaceful. He just stood there and watched as the man thought. Harry laughed silently thinking that maybe the man was thinking about all of life's questions. He was so tempted to reach out and touch the man. Severus was so close.
He raised a hand up. Wanted to take the man into his arms, or well more like force the man to take him into Sev's arms. He wanted to forget about how the man might not even want Harry in that way. His hand just a centimeter from his target. His incredibly warm and what he imagined was a perfect balance between soft and hard body. But like many times in the past Harry chickened out. He quickly pulled his hand away and ran back inside and stopped his thoughts of him and Severus living a very fulfilling life in which everyone knew they were together.
Severus' thoughts almost mirrored Harry's. The constant battle between whether to follow his heart and make a move against Harry in hopes the man would return his affections or live a life of heart break knowing that they had a perfect friendship but knowing his heart would break every time he would look at the man. He knew if he couldn't have the man he had come to love in his arms, then it would be heart breaking. He didn't know if his heart could stand another emotional roller coaster if he didn't confront Harry.
Giving up his debates for another day he turned quickly. He never knew Harry had gone out to visit him on the porch. He strolled past the darkened room of Harry's, already knowing the man was fast asleep. Hoping and dreaming that maybe in some wild dream that Harry was dreaming of Severus. Thinking that it was probably of some one else. He closed his own door and quickly fell asleep. Thoughts of Harry always remaining with him as he succumbed to the darkness.
Little did Severus know that Harry was indeed thinking of Severus. Severus would come behind Harry and surprise him with a deep supportive hug from behind where Harry would just back into the man. Letting the days worries melt away. And so they slept. Another day closer to hopefully discovery of the other's love.
