Chapter 16

Jack's eyes fluttered open. A ray of sunlight was coming through a gap in the curtains. He was warm and cozy in Corbin's bed, which would soon be their bed. He was so glad Corbin had turned out to be a cuddler. Corbin's head was tucked under Jack's chin and his arms were wound tight around Jack's waist.

"Corbin?"

A drowsy grumble answered him.

"Do you know the first thing I think every morning?"

"I'm a lazy sod, I hope Corbin's cooked me breakfast?" Corbin mumbled

"No."

"Could this be the day I'll finally run out of things to say?"

"No." Jack laughed.

"I can't take the guilt anymore, I'll tell you what happened with me, Reynolds and my broomstick?"

"No! And for the final time, neither I nor anyone else has carnal knowledge of my broomstick."

"I give up." Corbin said, his hand with the transfigured ring on it sliding against Jack's skin. Jack felt himself grin as he remembered last night: his proposal and Corbin's acceptance.

"I think how lucky I am that I'm in love with my best friend."

Corbin shifted and looked at Jack. "You're in love with Liam?"

"No! I'm in love with you, although right now you're rather spoiling the romantic mood."

"Mmm. Sorry." Corbin rolled over on to his back and stretched before rolling onto his other side. He was not a morning person and Jack knew he'd be back asleep in a minute if Jack didn't take action. Jack spooned up behind him and skittered fingers down Corbin's stomach.

"You're so sexy."

"Flattery will get you anything." Corbin mumbled, his hand stroking down Jack's arm.

"Like sex?" Jack nuzzled Corbin's neck. Their first time had been last night and Jack felt ten degrees warmer just remembering it.

"Ju' lemme sleep 'nother hour first."

"I don't think so." Jack licked Corbin's ear slowly feeling Corbin's body shudder and press back against his own. "I love you."

"Yeah?" Corbin asked, his voice still rough with sleep.

"Yeah. I do." Jack whispered. "And I thought we could do item number seven on the list."

"What's tha'?"

Jack whispered the answer, along with another lick around Corbin's ear. Immediately, Corbin turned in his embrace and started kissing him as Jack slid his hand between their bodies.


"Hi." Jack walked down the aisle in the primary Auror archive room where Corbin was standing holding a heavy book.

"Hi." Corbin glanced up and smiled before turning back to what he'd been reading. They'd been engaged for a week now and Jack felt like he'd spent every moment with a silly grin on his face.

"What're you doing?" Jack asked, feeling his palms get sweaty.

"The case we have now, it reminds me of something and I wanted to check some old case logs." Corbin answered, his head still bent over the book.

Jack stepped closer, brushing his lips against the back of Corbin's neck. "Ravenclaws are always so thorough."

"Of course we are." Corbin answered automatically as he turned the page.

"I saw you come in here and…" Jack gathered his Gryffindor courage, "I watched you in the morning meeting, you made me so hard."

"What?" Corbin asked sharply, whirling around to face Jack.

"You know what you were doing, rubbing your hand against your mouth, you do that when you're thinking. I wanted to pull you across the table and take that pretty mouth and…" Jack yanked Corbin close, kissing him. He heard Corbin moan softly which gave him encouragement. He kissed across Corbin's jaw so he could whisper in his ear. "You're such a whore. Teasing me."

"I…I d-didn't." Corbin stammered as Jack pulled the book out of his hands, dropping it on the floor with a loud thud. "Jack, I—"

"We could fuck right here." Jack said, in what he hoped was a low sexy voice. He could tell he'd succeeded when Corbin's cheeks flushed scarlet. "You'd like that, wouldn't you, slut? All the other aurors would hear those delicious, wanton noises you make. They'd be so jealous of me; they'd want to fuck you too. Maybe I'd let them, just so I could watch you writhe underneath them. Would you like that?"

Corbin stared wide-eyed at Jack. Jack wondered nervously if he'd gone too far. He shoved Corbin hard against the wall and could feel the other man's arousal against his leg.

"Or maybe," Jack continued quickly, his hands moving to hold Corbin's hips close, "They'll get to watch us. They'd…" Jack tried to remember the other things he'd planned to say. Corbin's mouth was distracting him. "They'd watch us as I fucked you against this wall while you begged me for more. They all think you're so reserved and quiet. They're so wrong." His hand snaked down between them and quickly unzipped Corbin's trousers to plunge inside.

Corbin's arms tightened as he gasped. Jack kissed him messily, pushing his tongue inside.

"Bartleby, you might not have a case right now, but some of us are busy." Cassius Malfoy was standing a few feet away. Jack felt like a teenager caught snogging in the Restricted Section at Hogwarts.

"Sod off, Malfoy." Jack managed, as Corbin buried his face in the crook of his neck.

"Hill, we've got to leave as soon as you're done." Malfoy said coolly, turning on his heel and walking out.

"Didn't lock the door, did you."

"No, well, I thought it would make it more…you know…if we could be walked in on." Jack could feel his cheeks starting to burn. "I just didn't think anyone would. No one comes in here." Corbin smirked and Jack laughed, realizing what he'd said. "Where're you going?"

"Manchester," Corbin answered, "To question a witness."

"Oh."

"Um, Jack?"

"Yeah?"

"Are…well…are we finishing? Or are we done? Because you're still….um…your hand is still..."

"Oh. Yeah."

"Stop talking and finish wanking Hill!" Malfoy yelled from the doorway.

"You've killed the mood, bastard!" Corbin yelled back. He kissed Jack lingeringly. "So…um…continue this later?"

Jack nodded. "I'll see you at your house after work?"

"Yeah."

"Then I'll pound you into the mattress." Jack whispered into Corbin's ear before nipping sharply at his earlobe.


Jack curled over Corbin who was flushed and breathing erratically. "You're ready for me now, aren't you? Such a whore. I didn't even have to touch you and you were ready for me."

"Please." Corbin arched up as Jack's fingers pressed into him before withdrawing. "Jack."

"Merlin, you're so hot." Jack pressed their foreheads together as he slid in. "So tight."

"Jack," Corbin panted, tugging desperately at the charmed ties binding his hands. "Jack, please, please, I can't."

Jack changed his angle slightly and rocked into Corbin with more force. Corbin groaned and clenched his thighs around Jack's hips. He nipped at Corbin's mouth. "My beautiful slut. Love you."

"Please no Jack God please!"

Jack started to slam harder against Corbin causing the bed to creak and bang against the wall.

"I love you." Jack kissed Corbin again. "I love you so much."

"How was that?" Jack brushed a damp curl of Corbin's hair back from his forehead as he tried to get his breathing under control.

"Mmgh." Corbin nuzzled closer to Jack. His neck and shoulders sported several angry red bites and there were bruises around his hips from Jack's fingers. Jack stroked Corbin's back gently, reveling in the warm skin under his hand.

"Is this the 'loss of coherence' that happens after a particularly good orgasm?"

"Mmnghgeldlu." Corbin replied. Obviously the answer to his question was yes. Jack hugged Corbin tighter. After several long moments, Corbin laughed softly.

"What?"

"You." Corbin sighed happily, "I almost fainted from shock when you started talking to me in the archive room."

"You liked it, though, right?"

"You know I did." Corbin murmured, pressing several kisses to Jack's neck.

"I had to do some research. Maybe I should have been sorted into Ravenclaw."

"What kind of research?" Corbin propped his head up on his hand and looked down at Jack.

"Well…I watched several muggle porns." Jack felt his face get hot at the memory of what had been in those movies. "And I found some wizarding porn too…The Manticore has a line of it."

"Really?" Corbin's dark lashes lowered as his fingers traced a pattern on Jack's stomach. "You did really well…except…."

"Except what?"

"Well…You don't sound like you really mean it when you call me…those names…and you…you tell me you love me."

"I'll work on that." Jack said quickly.

"No, don't. I…I think I like it…better…the way you do it."

"Really?" Jack asked quietly, wishing Corbin would look up at him.

"Yeah," Corbin flung himself on top of Jack and buried his face in Jack's neck. "I like how you're so rough and then you tell me you love me and you're so…tender." Corbin laughed again. "I can't believe you watched porns."

"Well…I...I wanted to give you what you wanted."

"You did. You're so wonderful. I don't deserve you."

"Yes, you do." Jack said fervently. "I love you."

"I love you so much." Corbin kissed Jack.
