Aftermath
Chapter 20
Sea and Stars
They slept in the next morning and when she blinked her eyes awake it was to find him smiling smugly down at her. She sighed and snuggled into his chest playing with his chest hair. "You asked me to marry you."
A grunt met this reply and she peeked up to see him lying with his arms crossed behind his head and still looking entirely too smug. So she poked him, hard, in the stomach. He chuckled and shifted grabbing her hands and bringing them up to his mouth, where he proceeded to suck on her fingers one by one and cause all kinds of funny things to happen in her still tender insides.
She closed her eyes and yanked back her hands. "None of that! Stop distracting me you sneak! Marriage, Theo. It's a really big deal!"
Theo sighed and pulled her up by her armpits so that she was on top of him and could rest her hands on his chest and gaze at him. He also tucked another part of his anatomy in-between her legs.
She flushed and then glared at him. "You did this on purpose," she said gesturing to their current position.
He smirked. "My only advantage in this relationship I fear."
She rolled her eyes and then sighed. "I love you too by the way."
He nodded playing with a curl. "I knew that from the moment I touched you last night. I could feel it."
She sucked in a breath and then looked at him her eyes going dreamy as his hands moved to draw circles on her back. "How do you know how to say the most amazing things to make me melt?"
He smiled at her and cupped her bottom pushing her into him. "Magic."
She sighed and leaned up to kiss him and bit his lip, hard. "I want you, so it's unfair to press your advantage right now Theodore Henri Spencer Nott."
He smiled and then nodded rolling them over so they were side by side, but he took her hand and put it on his heart. "I can't touch you, I can't say things that make you melt, what can I do?"
She shook her head at his tone. "You can tell me why we should get married?"
"Because I love you and will love you for as long as I live. Because as Draco pointed out I had our kids sorted into Ravenclaw a few weeks after we met again on that park bench."
She looked at him in awe. "You did not!"
He nodded solemnly. "I did actually, you can ask him. He pointed out I was in deep. Hermione, I am pretty helpless without you. Tuily adores you. Why wouldn't I want to marry you, kitten?"
"Oh, there you go again saying everything perfectly!"
He grinned and swooped in for a quick kiss. "Hermione, what has you so scared?"
"We come from such different backgrounds," she whispered softly.
He nodded. "Yes, we do. But you seem to overlook mine so I think we should be okay."
She hit him shaking her head with a sad smile. "Theo! I am serious, this will cause- well I think it would cause a scandal. What about your business?"
He sighed and brought her hand up to kiss her palm tenderly. "Kitten, I am rich, disgustingly rich, if my business goes under because I marry you I will just do something else. Draco has been bugging me to partner with him since we graduated. It's not like I don't have options. And nothing in my life besides possibly Tuily is more important than you."
She smiled at that and then sighed. "They might say horrible things about you in the paper. They have sainted me and I have never publically dated," she said this in a whisper not able to look at him.
He pressed a finger under her chin and raised it so she had to meet his gaze. "They already say horrible things about me and I never really cared what people said. Would it upset you that much? What they print? Draco and I could buy the paper and put it out of business."
Hermione let out a laughing sob. "Oh Theo," she said helplessly.
He frowned at her. "People very well might talk. My life has been a broken road, but now that I have found you. No one is going to take me away from you. Not a paper printing silly lies, not friends who don't understand, not my extended family, not even a house that might eat you. I will just let it rot."
Hermione looked at him stunned and then threw back her head laughing. "Theo, we can get curse breakers to fix your house or tear it down, I don't care. But I don't want you to lose friends."
Theo shrugged. "Blaise and Draco adore you, who else really matters from my crowd?"
Hermione thought on that and then sighed. "I guess I don't know."
He hugged her to him and rolled continuing to play with her hair. "Do you have any other concerns, kitten?"
She bit her lip and wiggled her pelvis her eyes going stormy. "I am not sure I can make love with you three times a day every day."
He smirked. "A wizard can dream," he said huskily before he leaned up and claimed her lips.
OooOOooO
They spent the day in bed and had meals in the room, sitting at a beautiful table with two chairs that appeared next to the windows that looked out at the sea. Hermione was sipping wine that night feeling perfectly content when she was suddenly swept up and found herself being shoved into a thick wool jumper.
"What are you up to?" She asked as a knit hat was put on her head.
He grinned at her and helped her into her jeans. She had been just sitting in her lacey bits of matching knickers and bra. He was putting thick socks on her feet and then helping her into her boots. She shook her head at him but let him grab her hand to pull her out of the room and down the stairs and out the front door. She was laughing as she rushed to keep up with him and when she stumbled he turned around and threw her on his back so that he was carrying her piggy back style. She leaned her head into his shoulder rubbing her nose into his warm neck.
She leaned her head into his shoulder rubbing her nose into his warm neck. "Where are we going?" She whispered biting his ear playfully.
He hissed and squeezed her thigh. "It's a surprise."
She snorted with laughter and tightened her arms around his neck as he continued heading out.
"Close your eyes," he said stopping suddenly.
Hermione paused and then did so feeling him let her down and wrap his arms around her from behind. They were walking again, frog marching really, and his hands were covering her eyes as if he didn't trust her not to peek. Smart of him, truthfully. Finally, they stopped and he said huskily. "Do you remember when you told me that you always wanted to sleep under the stars and not fear for your life?"
She nodded slowly and blinked open her eyes as he moved his hands. There was a beautiful large sleigh bed in the middle of a field of what looked like wild lavender.
Her eyes went wide. "Theo, it's beautiful, but won't we freeze?"
The cool wind from the ocean blew against them just to make her point as he chuckled. "Would I let my witch freeze?" He asked hugging her tight to his chest before he frog marched her closer to the bed.
She laughed as she passed through an invisible barrier and was hit by a warm wind that seemed to be circulating around them.
"I am a wizard," Theo said cheekily at her questioning look before he kissed her neck.
Hermione sighed and leaned back arching her neck to give him better access. "Yes, a very good one," Hermione said with a small smile.
"Hmm, and you are a very very good witch." He whispered pulling at her jumper.
She sighed and lifted her arms allowing him to pull off her jumper.
"We are still within the wards and no one can see us. Feel like getting naked under the stars, kitten?"
She nodded and turned in his arms grabbing his head to kiss him with all the passion she had inside of her. He let out a moan and yanked at her jeans as she shoved at his own wool jumper kicking off her boots. Within minutes they were both naked and he swept her up against him and then tossed her naked onto the soft bed causing her to laugh again and then let out a small squeal as he pounced on her playfully.
"Did that pain potion work or are you still sore?" He asked kissing a trial across her breast bone.
"It worked." Was her husky reply as she ran her fingers through his hair.
He gave a grateful groan and sucked at her nipples, causing her to arch and pull at his hair. But she felt boldness move through her and coupled with the idea of making love outside Hermione pushed at her lover rolling him onto his back and settling over him with a smirk.
"I think it's my turn," she said in a mock serious tone.
He moaned his pupils flaring and then nodded settling back with his hands behind his head. "Explore away, kitten."
She flashed a grin and then looked down at him, her mouth watering as she took in his fit frame and proud erection. Cocky wizard, she thought as she ran her hands over his chest and then down his torso, watching as goose pimples rose and his breath hitched. She scooted down the bed as the warm air rushed over them and looked back up at him to find him watching her with hooded eyes.
She held his gaze and reached for him, running her fingertips over the thick mushroom head and down the shaft smiling as he hissed and arched into her touch. She looked down and tilted her head as she considered her task. She had read all about it of course but this would be the first time she had given oral sex.
She rubbed her finger over the tip as moisture pushed out and brought her fingers to her lips, tasting him. "Salty," she said looking back up at him.
He was breathing in a very controlled manner and after flashing him another grin she settled down between his thighs and with just the tip of her tongue she licked at the salty liquid he created. This time he let out a low moan but otherwise stayed still, allowing her to take her time. She moved more of him into her mouth and swirled her tongue around carefully, learning the texture and taste of him. She had heard some girls complain about this act but so far Hermione was pretty sure she was going to enjoy this very much. Bracing herself on his thighs she allowed him to slide into her mouth, testing how much of him she could take in, using her saliva to lubricate him as he let out another deep moan. She brought one hand back gripping the base of his shaft and continued moving him in and out of her mouth, slowly, carefully, swirling her tongue under the base of the tip because that seemed to make him gasp. When she brought her other hand over to play with his sack he arched pushing himself further into her mouth, when she didn't gag she squeezed him with both hands and on the next downward pass she went farther.
"Oh, sweet Merlin," Theo said as she got over half of him into her mouth and he touched the back of her throat. "Hermione, baby, I am close."
She let out a groan herself which made him moan and thrust again and then she sucked harder and he seemed to lose his remaining control and started thrusting into her mouth, touching the back of her throat with each pass. When he tried to pull out she tightened her suction and shook her head slightly her eyes meeting his and narrowing. He dropped his head back onto the pillow and fisted his hands in her hair, seeming to resign himself to her motives. She would have grinned but she was too fascinated by watching him fall apart under her touch and mouth. His thrusts were erratic now and he was moaning her name, she could feel that he was leaking semen continuously into her mouth and she found it gave her better lubrication to take him further down her throat.
She would have grinned but she was too fascinated by watching him fall apart under her touch and mouth. His thrusts were erratic now and he was moaning her name, she could feel that he was leaking semen continuously into her mouth and she found it gave her better lubrication to take him further down her throat. Suddenly he thrust up and she felt him tighten under her before he was yelling her name hoarsely as he came down her throat in thick bursts that she struggled to swallow. Swallowing meant she also swallowed down the head of his cock and he yelled his hands tightening in her hair.
"Oh yes, swallow again."
She did watching wide eyed as he arched and then letting him pop out of her mouth as he pulled her up. She crawled up his chest settling her head down on his pounding heart.
"Where did you learn that?" He asked still shivering a few moments later.
Hermione looked up at him. "Books," she said frowning. "Why did I do it wrong?"
Theo let out a bark of a laugh and hugged her to him shaking his head. "No, you were perfect. Where are they keeping those books at Flourish and Blotts?"
Hermione flushed and cuddled into him. "Um, they were muggle books," she whispered.
He snorted and rubbed her back causing her to shiver from his touch. "Merlin, and to think the Dark Lord looked down on muggles." She smirked and pinched him as he laughed and then rolled her his face full of laughter and lust. "I think, you have thrown down the gauntlet, Miss Granger."
Her eyes widened. "I have?"
He nodded his tone hard. "Your Muggle talents have left me with a strong desire to prove that the wizarding methods of pleasing a lover are just as affective."
Hermione shook her head at the man as he pushed down her torso and pulled her legs up and over his shoulders. Gasping as he wandlessly called a pillow into his hands and pushed it under her slim hips.
"Don't cry uncle." He teased as he spread her lower lips apart and gazed down at her.
She felt a laugh bubble out of her before she was left gasping as the man took the time to show her, the wizarding methods were just as affective. By the time he had wrung three orgasms out of her he was hard as a rock again and pulling her up and over him allowing her to slowly sink down upon him their hands linked.
"Deep," she said on a low moan.
"We will go slow," Theo said his voice husky with passion.
She nodded and allowed him to slowly lower her down until her pelvis was flush with his and he bottomed out inside of her.
"So full," she moaned leaning forward to kiss him.
He moved his hands and wrapped his arms around her holding her to his chest and then suddenly he sat up so that she was sitting in his lap, impaled on his cock, and wrapped in his arms. Amazingly it made him seem to expand out inside of her and go even deeper, she was sure her eyes crossed as his girth pushed against a spot inside of her that left her delirious with passion.
"Oh, oh, oh."
"Finally I have reduced you to babbling," he said helping her move up on his cock with a low moan of his own. "Merlin, kitten, so tight, so amazing."
She wanted to say something witty but her brain had shut down so instead she leaned forward and bit his shoulder, hard. After that she wasn't the only one babbling and after they were reduced to sweaty tangles of limbs. She smiled as she drew circles with her finger around his nipple; he was still inside of her, plugging her so that all the mess stayed inside and off the sheets.
She had teased him that he was doing that just to avoid having to get up to clean them off. He had just grinned and thrown one of his legs over hers anchoring her pelvis to his.
"You never asked if I am on the contraceptive potion," she said still drawing her circles.
He grunted and traced her spine with his own fingers. "I wouldn't care if you weren't," he said honestly.
She rolled her eyes and leaned over to bite his nipple causing him to chuckle and squeeze her bottom. "I am on the Muggle pill," she said after a moment.
"Hmm, no idea what that is, kitten," he said lazily still playing his fingers up and down her spine causing her to shiver.
"Muggle contraceptive, it's the pills I keep in my purse and take every day."
He nodded and splayed his hand on her lower back. "Safe?"
She nodded. "Very."She snuggled into his chest and looked out at the dark sea. "It's beautiful here," she said softly. She could feel his chest rising evenly and knew he was drifting off to sleep. She smiled and moved her hand up to caress his cheek. "Thank you, Theo."
"For what?" He mumbled sleepily.
She shrugged slightly and closed her eyes. "For all of this. Where would I be without you? I was just surviving and now I am living."
His hands tightened on her and he moved so that he could kiss her forehead. "Me too, kitten, me too."
They drifted to sleep under the stars wrapped in each other's arms and missed the pop of the little elf who gazed at them and waved her hand over them with a soft smile before she left happier than she had been in decades. Tuily had some work to do!
Notes:
Wonder what made Tuily so excited? I know! Do you?
Still to come:
Where is that bended knee proposal? And who is Draco NOT sleeping with?
