Okay, so here this is. It is a bit, older I guess, as in, maybe a T rating because there is some very heavily implied sexual acts. No actual sexual acts or anything, just, heavily implied.

I think this fits the task.

Seeker: Someone who is quiet but a tease, not afraid to take risks to get what they want but don't jump into things straight away, meaning they have a thinking hat on more often than not. They feel that they have the weight of the world on their shoulders and typically run into the brunt of problems on their own, but do accept help when offered.

Object: Ribbon, Word: Lovesick. Object: Quill.

This is what I did, whether or not it fit, we will find out later.

I don't own them!

Enjoy!


Ronald is a life saver. Severus would never admit it of course; he had spent every day since day one of Hogwarts setting up what he wanted others to see, and grateful was not one of the emotions he had ever let seen.

He had actually only been grateful for three people, Lily Evens, before she married the ass and before he ruined everything, Dumbledore, for everything the man has done for him since… and Ronald, for not judging him, for allowing him to mourn and not demanding of him an explanation about his father and everything that happened the other night.

With Lily, she was everything he wasn't; she was loud and smart, loving and full of emotion, unafraid to let it show. He never considered himself a lovesick fool, though he knew that he was, he didn't consider himself as such, he thought it was more, admiration and respect, and yes, love had been an emotion that came from those two.

But Lily was before, she was in love with someone else, and he wasn't what she wanted, not what she needed.

Albus treated him like he treated everyone else, like he was important and not just an extra, Severus never felt inferior with the man, if anything, he was like a father or an uncle, like he imagined a father or an uncle should act. And then he got Severus a job as a teacher, which was both a blessing, and a curse. On the one hand, he was safe in the school, away from the other death eaters who weren't happy with him.

On the other hand, he was trapped in a school, full of children. He never liked children, never liked how they were so vindictive and cruel, but then, that might just be because of his own experiences with them.

And Ronald. He is a breath of fresh air, a light in the darkness. Severus didn't know that he needed this boy, this young man, not until he showed up and forced his way into Severus' heart.

He still doesn't know if he should thank Albus or not, still not sure if the man had hired the boy on purpose or if he felt Ronald was the best for the position, Severus isn't even a fan of quidditch and even he knew that the boy wasn't the greatest teacher, and if the snickering of the students is anything to go by, he is at least the funniest teacher they've had.

Severus wasn't ready for this man, and he probably never would be.

"What is this?" His beau was laying on their pretty much shared bed, card stock, glue, colored ink, a handful of quills, several cases of what looked like glitter, and a large bag full of nothing but different shades of red and pink ribbon.

"Oh, Valentine's day is in a week. I'm just making some cards. My mum was disappointed that I didn't go to theirs for Christmas, so I decided to make up for it with homemade cards." Ronald looked up at him with a big grin spread out on his face, cheeks flushed. Severus took a deep breath.

"And you need over a hundred feet of ribbon, why?" Severus had one way he'd like to use the ribbon, but he would never voice it, at least, not unless he was sure Ronald was on the same page.

And judging by the suddenly cutting grin on the boy's face, he too was thinking of the same thing Severus was.


Ronald's supplies had been relocated, glitter and ink were spilled over the floor, paper and quills hazardously thrown over the once immaculate desk, and an empty bag was thrown on the floor next to the bed.

Ronald had a class in an hour, unfortunately so did Severus. Neither got much sleep the night before.

Severus watched his lover sleep, his breath slow and even, his eyelashes rested softly on his cheeks, freckles looked wonderful spread over his calm face.

He didn't want to wake the man up, no matter that they had to get up, clean up, and get to class in 55 minutes. He pulled the body closer to him, ribbon catching slightly, rousing the man from sleep.

"No, sleep." Ronald groaned as he dug his head into Severus' shoulder cuddling up to him as best he could with his, limitations.

"You have class, I have class. Come, you don't want the children to see you like this? Or worse, Minerva. The last time almost gave her a heart attack." Severus and Ronald shared a full body shiver. They had decided to skip class, too tired from a night of 'fun', and Minerva took it upon herself to check up on them.

Ronald's head lifted from under the blanket, a tired pout on his face.

"After class, we'll finish those cards. Then we can practice for Valentine's Day." Severus told him softly. Ronald's face brightened considerably before he leaned over and kissed Severus fully.

"That would be wonderful! Thank you." He breathed heavily from the kiss. "Now, help me out of the ribbon. We have to get to class."


I've been focusing on Ron! Ug, so this is all Severus. I hope you enjoyed it!
