"Do you wanna build a snowman?" Anders called at the closed door. As usual there was no reply. Once, years ago his brother would answer him with a "Go away Anders" or something similar, but not anymore.

"Fenris! come on, open up the door! I hardly see you anymore!" Anders called, even though he knew it would be in vain, it always was. He sighed heavily and went to his room. Tomorrow would be different, tomorrow he had to come out. It was his coronation day tomorrow, his brother Fenris would be king. Anders sighed again, laid down on his bed next to a grey cat, and closed his eyes.

The next morning Anders was woken by an insistent knocking on his door.

"Master Anders, are you up?"

"I've been up for hours!" Anders called back sleepily, turned around and prepared to go back to sleep. He almost squished a small, black kitten which was sleeping on the pillow next to his head.

The annoyingly insistent knocking came again.

"Master Anders! It's coronation day!" the voice from the other side of the door called. This got Anders attention and he sat up quickly, tipping several small furballs of in the process. He hurried to get dressed in the midst of unsatisfied meowing.

"Sorry guys, but today's the big day" He said and lovingly lifted one of the small cats, a red tabby, "Fenris gonna be the king, you know Fenris, my brother, I told you about him" he said to the small cat before placing it on his shoulder.

Anders was so excited about the coming coronation that he couldn't focus on anything else for the rest of the morning. He tried distracting himself with his cats and when that didn't work, he tried with singing but that didn't work either.

"You know Ser Pounce-a-lot, this will be the first time in years I'll se Fenris! And other people!" he exclaimed and twirled around while holding the cat close in a hug.

"Meow" Ser Pounce-a-lot answered.

"This is gonna be amazing!"

Hours later, after the most beautiful coronation Anders could imagine, he found himself standing next to Fenris. They had just welcomed their guests and the party was officially starting. Anders glanced at Fenris and fidgeted nervously unsure of what to say. Did Fenris even want to speak with him? Or be in the same room as him? Maybe he should just leave. He was just about to do that when his brother spoke.

"Hey". It was a short word, but a word directed at Anders, the first one in years. His voice wasn't how he remembered it, he sounded, not surprisingly, older, gruff, slightly hoarse, like he wasn't used to talking, and very sexy. No bad Anders, not sexy.

"Hey?" Anders asked too bewildered by the sound of his brothers voice to think coherently, "Oh, hey!" he exclaimed, when he finally realized what was happening. Fenris gave him a weak, but kind, smile in return.

"You look good" Fenris commented, once again throwing Anders off his guard.

"Oh, thanks, you look beautiful!" he said before thinking, "Uhm, I mean, so do you" he quickly added, blushing slightly. Fenris did look beautiful, Anders had forgotten how stunning his brother were, or maybe he just hadn't always been this stunning.

Fenris smiled again, "Thank you" he said and gave him an amused look, making Anders oddly self-conscious.

"uhm .." he said and looked towards the dance floor, "Lots of important people here tonight, huh?".

Fenris nodded and all amusement left his face. "Yes, there are ..." he said, "I didn't know the party would be ... like this" he mumbled.

Anders looked confused at him, "You don't like it?" he asked.

Fenris seemed to consider his answer for some time, "I just ... I don't know what to do with myself" he said after some thought.

Anders considered this answer, then he lit up in a big grin, "You could dance!".

Fenris looked at him with a both horrified and shocked expression, "Anders, I don't dance".

"Oh come on, it won't be that bad" Anders said, "Hey, why don't you have your first dance with me, I promise to catch you if you fall" he said with a grin, ignoring the flutter in his stomach at the thought of dancing with Fenris.

His brother considered it for a time and Anders was scared he might decline, but then, after way to long, he nodded. "Ok then, but you will lead, and if I fall, I'll never dance again".

Anders grinned, "Perfect" he said, grabbed his hand and pulled him onto the dance floor.

They danced close with Anders hand on Fenris waist and his on Anders shoulder. It felt magical they were close enough for Anders to feel the warmth radiating of Fenris and smell his scent which was absolutely intoxicating. After the first dance Anders was dying for one more, but he also knew that it might be too much temptation for him to bear. For the last half of their first dance it had been all he could do to not just kiss him right there on the dance floor.

"uhm, do you ... want to go somewhere more private?" Fenris asked, before Anders could make up his mind.

"Huh? Oh, why?" he asked, feeling his heartbeat pick up, Fenris couldn't mean it that way, could he?

"All these people" he said and looked around, "I could use a break".

"Oh" Anders said, feeling slightly disappointed, "Let's go somewhere then".

They left the ballroom and went out to the garden. There they sat down on one of the benches.

"I'm never dancing again" Fenris declared with a sigh.

Anders huffed, "I don't know why you would say that, you are a great dancer, not as great ad me obviously, but still pretty good".

Fenris grinned at this, "One must also be very good to be better then you, but really, I can't dance".

"Yes you can, you are a great dancer!" Anders insisted.

"Thank you for the kind words, but I know how it went, I almost fell two times" he answered with a small smile.

"Pfft, everyone falls once in a while, and you didn't actually fall" Anders argued, "besides, if you never dance again, I won't get another chance to dance with you" he gave Fenris a sad look.

"You want to dance with me again?" Fenris asked, sounding surprised. Anders nodded, making Fenris sigh, "Fine then, maybe one more dance in my life".

"Heh" Anders said and smiled triumphantly. They sat in silence for a while after that, until Anders spoke again.

"You know, this is nice ..." he said, "The two of us talking, having people in the castle".

Fenris smiled and nodded, "It is" he agreed and looked at Anders.

"I wish it could be like this always" Anders said staring into the night.

"So do I" Fenris said, then he sighed, "but it can't" he continued, sadness suddenly filling his voice.

Anders looked questioningly at him, "And why not?" he asked, sounding slightly accusing, "It wouldn't be so hard, would it? Just open the gate".

Fenris shook his head, "It just can't" he snapped turning away from Anders, "Just leave it be".

"I won't!" Anders said, he was starting to feel angry, "All these years you shut me out, shut everyone out, leaving me all alone! The least you can do is tell me why!"

"I can't!". Fenris was almost yelling and he refused to look at Anders, "If .. if you dislike it that much, then leave".

For a moment Anders just sat and stared at his brother, had he actually said that? He was just about to tell him that he would to just that, when he caught an emotion in his brother's face, that made him change his mind. "No".

"No?".

"I won't leave you" he said simply, "never".

"Anders ... I don't want you to be miserable" he mumbled, "It might be better if you just left".

"No" Anders said again, "Just tell me what's bothering you, just trust me ... I can help" he said and took Fenris face in his hands and looked deeply into his sad and stunning green eyes, "Let me help".

"I can't" he said looking down, "You can't help, and I won't let you share this burden with me, and even if ... you might hate me".

"Fenris, there is nothing in this world that would make me hate you" Anders said while trying to regain eye contact, Fenris merely snorted at this.

"Really there isn't. Did you kill someone? 'cause I could help you hide the body or maybe shut up the witnesses. Or did you steal something valuable? Then I could totally hide it or ... hm ..." while Anders was trying to think of other stuff Fenris could have done, his brother had begun to smile slightly.

"What if I told you I kill kittens in my free time?" he asked amused.

Anders gave him a horrified look, "You don't do that, do you? ... but even if you did, I wouldn't hate you!"

Fenris shook his head at him, "... No, I don't" he sighed, "Listen, I ... mum and dad told me never to tell you" he muttered.

"Oh" Anders said and Fenris nodded.

"Well, just do it anyways! I were never one to stick to rules, you know that" Anders said after some thought, "I'm sure they'll forgive you, I mean we are brothers, we are supposed to deal with the world together".

Fenris looked at him, and Anders could see him beginning to give in, "... I ... I suppose It is better to show you" he said with a sigh. Fenris lifted his hand, and suddenly snow was falling all around them, then with a small gesture he made the most beautiful ice rose appear in his hand and handed it to Anders. Anders just stared at him, completely awestruck.

"So ... this is it" Fenris mumbled and looked away, when Anders didn't accept the rose, "I know, it's rather scary an-".

"This is so cool!" Anders exclaimed, "This is magic! You can do magic! My brother can do magic!". He grabbed Fenris and pulled him into a hug, "This is your deep, dark secret? This is amazing!",

Fenris shook his head and looked sad, "No, it's dangerous, I ... I don't know how to control it, when I am scared, or angry, I ... it just happens, that's why we can't have people".

Anders looked confused at him for a few minutes, "Oh ... huh, well, we'll just have to work on that, don't we?" he said enthusiastic, "I'm sure we'll figure it out in no time, now that I'm helping. After all, I am pretty brilliant".

Fenris looked at him and smiled slightly, "... Maybe we could make it work ..." he muttered.

"Good, then that's settled" Anders said happily, "Now we just have to find out when I can have that next dance you promised".

Fenris laughed, "Hm ... maybe we should save it for another night?" he suggested.

Anders looked at him and felt his heart begin to beat faster again at the thought of another dance, "Yeah, maybe that's for the best" he said and blushed slightly, "I mean, not that I wouldn't love to dance with you tonight, I really would" he added.

Fenris smiled slightly, "Good" he said and moved a bit closer to Anders, "It's rather cold out here, isn't it?" he asked.

Anders looked at him and grinned, "If you're freezing, you're welcome to move a bit closer to me" he offered. Fenris did just that and Anders once again found himself almost unbearably close to him. Simple closeness, especially from his brother, shouldn't be able to affect him like this. His head felt light and he felt like thousand of butterflies were living in his stomach. He looked towards Fenris, which had been a mistake, because suddenly he was captivated by beautiful green eyes and delicate lips, lips he just couldn't stop himself from kissing. He leaned in and planted a soft kiss on his brothers mouth.

At first Fenris froze, but then, just as Anders were about to pull away and apologize, he returned the kiss passionately. Anders felt happier than he had ever felt before, like his heart could burst with joy or like he could fly. The sensation stayed with him all through the evening, the night and the next many months.

This is it. Thanks for reading ^^ Bye :)
