XLIII: Wider Than Any Horizon

"Harry." she nudged him in the ribs, his side feeling much warmer than she did as a whole. "Harry, are you awake?" she frowned in the darkness. There was something about waking up in the pall cover of night that made Luna anxious. "Harry, I must insist that you wake up." She whispered into his ear, the soft and fine hairs on his lobe tickled her lips.

"No." Harry said, his voice heavy with sleep.

Luna laid there, considering the benefits of waking Harry, while weighing the cons of it as well. He would be grumpy in the morning, being woken so irregularly. She straddled his hips, pressing her womanhood against his lump of man. "Harry, wake up, or I swear by my wand's core I will shag your brains out while you sleep."

His chest rose and fell, but Luna detected no hint that he was conscious. She poked him in the right nipple, before putting her finger through his nipple ring as thread through a needle. She tugged on it, and it issued no reaction.

"Harry, you are awake, do not play with me." Luna scolded him, as his lips formed a sleepy smile.

"Five more minutes, dearest." he choked out, as Lunas' hands went to his neck and clamped.

"No." Luna said, reminiscently of Harry.

"Alright-" he coughed, yet her hold held true. "Awright!" he started fighting to get up.

"I notice you're waking up all over. It's good that you decided to get up early. I got bored waiting on you to wake up."

"Is that why you're on top of me?" she felt his hands crawling up her ribs. "Naked?"

"I find intercourse works best in that condition." she released his neck, and started grinding against his thighs.

"That's nice." he said pleasantly.

"My doctor says sex is healthy during pregnancy."

"I love your doctor, whomever it is."

"That's a good Harry, so complacent."

Luna felt Harry enter her and grinned, her anxiety dropping into non-being. As she reflected on her non-being fears, she came across a memory. "Harry?" she said, as she buckled on top of him, her hands pressing against his chest.

"Mmm?"

"Hmm, you moaned."

"No, that was an inquisitive sound."

"Shame, I'm not working hard enough them."

"You were saying?" he feigned moaning.

"Don't toy with me hubby, I can bring out the chain at any time if you miss it's company."

Harry was silent as the grave.

"I was wondering if you remembered the night Voldemort and his Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts."

"Do you find mentioning Voldemort during intercourse serves as a good turn on? Because I have to say, it's not working for me Love."

"Oh shut up before I gag you, I'm asking you a serious question." her breath caught in her throat as he thrust into her.

"Go on, go on, go on then…" he intertwined his fingers behind his black mass of tangled hair.

"Do you remember?" she went on again.

Harry's hands grasped onto her sides and worked his way deep into her. "Yes, I have a small recollection of the night. Didn't you duel Bellatrix, and wasn't Neville slicing off Nagini's head? And didn't I live?"

"Oh you do remember! Good, this will be much easier on me then."

"I remember."

"Well, I was wondering if you remembered how I snuck you into Ravenclaw Tower?"

"It was pretty memorable. Your stunning spell on Alecto was impressive."

"Thank you dear."

"Is that what you wanted to talk about, Alecto?"

"No, it was funny really."

"Yeah, I admit, seeing a Death Eater fall has always been a secret joy of mine." Harry said sarcastically as his nails drug down Luna's back.

"Smart arse. What I was saying was, Ginny didn't want Cho taking you up to our Tower. It's a little ironic I think."

"Oh?"

"Yes. She thought Cho would try and have her way with you."

"That would have been very funny indeed."

"No, the funny thing was, Ginny asked me to go instead. When really, I had the plans of seducing you. I was going to take you to a secret corridor in the Tower and tie you down with Incarcerous."

"Re-eee-eally?" he drug out his speech, Luna having found a particularly nice way of riding him.

"Yes."

"Didn't you think it was a weird time to stage a seduction?"

"It was war then, Harry, who was to know if I would ever see you again?"

"What stopped you then?"

"You know, the sudden appearance of Amycus and Professor McGonagall had a small influence over my decision."

"I love you Luna."

"You're just saying that because I'm going to make you orgasm."

"It doesn't make it any less true, you're wonderful."

"Shut up and fuck me." she said, rolling over and letting him take control for once.

They laid there in a post-coital lull, each one wrapped tightly around each other. "So. We're going to need to start sorting out our daughters room soon." Harry suggested.

"We'll need to start sorting out Lyssandra's room soon, Harry."

He sighed contentedly, his breath blowing her hair. "Lyssandra Potter."

"My very first daughter." Luna said magically, and her face broke into a smile wider than any horizon.

"She'll have a great love for the outdoors, and wild life."

"Oh, naturally. She'll also be a born flyer."

"I'll have such fun teaching her Quidditch."

"Just promise she learns how to walk first, okay red cheeks?"

"Red cheeks?" He questioned.

"I was referring to your arse. I smacked it a little too much earlier, I think."

"I was trying to forget that part of it…truth be told."

Luna laid her head on his chest and breathed in his sweaty scent, her hands roving across his torso. "Five more months, and we'll get to meet her."

"That's true. Will we immediately go searching for the Snorkacks immediately after her birth?" he asked cautiously, hoping that her answer would be no.

It was.

"We'll wait for a short while, but we mustn't wait too long- I have waited so long to see one up close."

The minutes passed by, each of them felt the pull of sleep drawing them back in.

"Harry?"

He made no noise, and Luna smiled, convinced that he was pretending again. "Fine, pretend to be sleeping, I'll ask you when you're awake."
