9. Chapter 9

Hey my lovely readers. How are you doing? I hope you're doing well, better than me at least. Due to all this pollen I have once more gotten sick. Now. I had a good bit of writer's block when I first started writing this chapter, but you can thank my wonderful friends for helping me work past it. And I have the personal headcanon that Levi has a massive sweet tooth.

Eren POV

The next two weeks passed in the space of one, hectic, blink. Levi and I barely got any time to ourselves during this time, which meant that we both were getting rather antsy, due to our once rather happy sex life suddenly vanishing due to the inability to get alone. And whenever we could get the other alone we had to either train our asses off, or we were doing something for a teacher, training with Snape, or talking to the magical creatures teacher.

It was the Friday before the Hogsmeade weekend, which was apparently something to get all happy about. "You'll love Hogsmeade! It's this little village that's about 2 miles away from the edge of the grounds! You can buy almost anything there! There are 2 different pubs, there's a joke shop, and a candy shop!" Says Fred, grinning at both of us across the table.

"Candy?" Levi says, perking up at the word. I smile down at him as he looks up at me with pleading eyes. "Yes, we can stop there. But you can't spend everything I have on candy!" I say, nuzzling his hair softly. I get a small smile from him as he nods and leans against me. I hold him close to my side as Professor McGonagall walks up.

She hands us two folded pieces of paper and says "In order to go to Hogsmeade this weekend the two of you are going to have to have your parents sign these forms. Without it you can't go." I nod at her and take the papers, hiding Levi with my body for a moment as I say "Yes Ma'am. We'll get them signed." She nods at us before walking off.

I rub Levi's arm gently as I start up a conversation with the twins as I give him a minute to pull himself together. It still hurt him to talk about his mom, especially when it's sudden like that. He'd gotten better, but it still hurt him to talk about her. He pulled his face from my side after a minute or two, joining in on the conversation with ease, but he still seemed sad to a point.

I toss the papers into my pocket and pull him gently back to my side, kissing his cheek as I listen to them. Before long breakfast is over and we are were once again we were headed down to the dungeons, Snape was waiting for us at the end of the hall as always as he ushered us into the classroom.

Normally we would have gone to History of Magic but he requested us today. He gave the two of us a small smile and says "Levi. I have a specific potion I want you to create for me today which is called the Draught of Living Death, while you Eren shall be creating a Draught of Peace for madame Pomfrey."

I nod and walk over to our table, grabbing out my book and walking over to the potions cupboard. It takes a minute to collect everything but I do and quickly carry it over to the table as Levi walks into the room and collects his ingredients as Snape waits for him. We than spend the next 2 hour class creating our potions.

Levi receives help from Snape on his as I steadily make my way through the Draught of Peace. Most of the time though I was staring at my watch and timing it, because if I messed up on the temperature or time it needed to simmer it would have ruined it. When I finally add the last ingredient, syrup of hellebore, it turned a bright turquoise color as I let it simmer for 7 minutes.

Just as I took it off the burner it emitted a light silver vapor, the vapor swirling gently up from the cauldron. I grinned at it while Levi and Snape finished creating the Draught of Living Death, which looked as perfect as it could be. I grin at Levi and say "Nicely done!" Stepping around the table and hugging him from behind as they remove the cauldron from heat.

He let's out a pleased hum as I hold him, kissing the back of his neck gently before pulling away and pulling him to my side. Professor Snape nods at us and says "Well done. Eren I shall bottle yours up and send it up to Madame Pomfrey, Levi, I shall keep yours for my own uses." We nod at him before collecting our stuff and exiting the room, walking quickly around the hall so we could catch up with the group of Gryffindors as they made their way to the DADA room.

The trio don't have DADA till sixth period today, which means that we're alone till the end of the day. I kiss Levi's temple before I pull away from him and walk up to my seat, grabbing out a book as I sit down and set about to ignoring everything about this class until it was over. She simply had us reading through her stupid book.

I rolled my eyes as I glanced at the boy sitting next to me, who looked like he was giving himself a headache trying to commit the page to memory. I silence my impending sigh as I think back to our permission slips. Levi can sign mine like my mom, since his signature is for more scroll like than mine. I can sign his since my signature is far sharper. I think as class seems to creep by.

When class finally ends both Levi and I make our way to the great hall, meeting up with the twins as we sit down. I rub my temple gently as I shake my head at the noise and say "You know what. I need a drink. I am way too sober for this shit." Levi let's out a small snort and says "I agree. A fifth of vodka would be very much appreciated."

I glare down at him, knowing exactly what he's trying to do. Just because vodka makes me extremely horny does not mean that we should get the one alcohol that will make me literally drag him off to the nearest place and fuck him against the nearest surface. He gives me an adorably cute smile that I'm sure only I could see.

George shrugs and Fred says "Well. The guy who runs the Hogs Head will sell anything to anyone. He doesn't care, as long as it lines his pockets. So you could probably buy some firewhiskey, since he only sells wizarding drinks. Last I saw they sold each full bottle for 2 Galleons each." I nod along to his words and say "Alright. I'll buy some when we go to Hogsmeade. You guys want some? Since I'm buying anyway."

Fred jumps and George says "We've never drank before!" With a small smile, the both of them look slightly ashamed of themselves as he says this. I stare at them and grin. "Oh I am so getting you shitfaced." The pair of them grin at me and say "Alright. We can give you enough for a bottle for us. We'll give it to you before you get to Hogsmeade."

I nod at them before I say "Okay. We can meet up in the empty classroom on the 6th floor." They nod before we all tuck in, the conversation going to lighter matters. I glance up at the clock as lunch ends and say "Hey Levi. Aren't we free for the rest of the day today? Since we don't have a sixth period and next class is a study hall."

Levi nods with a small snort and says "Great. We have 3 hours to kill." I grin at him and say "Hey! We don't actually have a full three hours. Also don't forget we have to go to the common room and stay there." I smile down at his quietly pouting form, knowing what he had planned. I pull him to my side once more as we walk, easily making our way up to the common room.

The moment we enter I am instantly dragged over to the couch by the fire, which is once more unoccupied despite the many sixth years who occupied the room. I allow myself to be pulled to the couch and plop down, laying across it and opening my arms to my small, adorable lover. He instantly climbs on top of me, setting his head over my heart and clinging to the front of my sweater.

I smile down at him and hold him close, perfectly at ease with cuddling him as Crookshanks joins us again and coils up next to Levi on my chest. I smile at both of them as I watch Levi slowly begin to slip off into sleep, I can't help the burst of warmth that spreads through my chest as he falls asleep. I smile down at them as they sleep, barely staying awake myself. I find it adorable that if I so much as move an inch his grip would tighten instantly. He gets so clingy during the cooler months. It's downright adorable.

I rub his back softly as he sleeps, barely staying awake myself as I watch them, watching the clock as well. The next two hours pass like this, Levi sleeping soundly as I try not to fall asleep myself yet find that nearly impossible with the warmth of not only Levi but the crackling fire as well, making the extremely soft couch seem like the perfect nap spot. I barely make it the final hour, knowing that if I fall asleep we would be prime targets for one of the Twins pranks. As the end of class finally rolls around I slowly begin to wake him up, kissing him gently and rubbing his back to do so.

"Come on Levi…. Time to wake up…" I say, watching and feeling him squirm on top of me as he slowly wakes up. What ends up fully waking him up though was the final bell of the day, which made everyone jump. "Ugh…. I liked that dream…" Levi says after a moment, cuddling back into my chest. "Oh hell no. We have stuff to do! Which means time to get up!" I say, instantly kissing his face as I slowly sit up. "I don't wanna!" He says, clinging to my sweater and nuzzling into my chest. I smile down at him and ask "Why not Levi? We're just going to the library…"

He clings to me harder and says "Cause it's cold out there!" I chuckle softly at his reasoning and shake my head before saying "You can make it to the Library right? It's not that cold yet. Besides, the library is always warm. And you can hold onto me till we get there." My words are gentle as I slowly coax him off my chest and to a spot where I can at least see his face. He pouts quietly before he says "Fine…" I give him a grin and kiss his nose, picking him up gently as Crookshanks slips off me as well.

I set Levi down on the couch and say "I'm going to grab the books that we have to return. Than we can head over to the library." He nods as I walk toward the dormitory. I quickly scale the stairs to our floor, walking into our room and making my way over to our trunks. I grab the books out of mine, there only being 3 of them as I've been taking them back steadily over the last two weeks, before I grab the 4 that Levi had in his trunk. I stack them up and check that out trunks were shut before walking back down the stairs.

About a week ago I had caught Harry and Ron trying to get into our trunks. They had stopped when I had entered and stuttered out some half assed reason before running out of the room. I walk over to the couch where Levi is sitting, he stands as I approach and we exit the common room, making our way over to the Library. It was slightly chilly to me, but to Levi we were walking through the arctic or something like it as he clung to me and pressed the majority of his side against me as we walked while he shivered slightly.

He let's out a pleased sigh as we step into the Library, which was just as warm as I said it would be. He stays attached to my arm, but pulls away slightly so walking is easier. I take the books up to the Librarian, who instantly takes them and begins looking them over before nodding and checking them in. I than pull Levi farther into the library and say softly "I need you to do something for me about these permission slips." He nods as we walk, easily making our way to the back of the library near the restricted section.

I grab two books on Dragons before I sit down and pull him into my lap. He glares at me for a moment, letting me know that I had startled him and I grab the quill from the inkwell on the table and grab out the permission forms. I place mine on the table and say "You have such pretty handwriting, and as such I would like you to sign as my mom on mine. I can sign as whoever you want on yours." I nuzzle his shoulder gently as I hold him, having set the quill next to the form.

He let's out a small hum when I kiss his neck before he takes the quill and glances over the form, taking a moment before he sets it down and writes out the name Carla Yeager in his usual beautiful scrolling penmanship. I kiss his neck again as he finishes and say "Thank you love." He let's out a small hum again as I say this before he sets everything down and turning around in my lap and wrapping his arms around my neck. I kiss his nose gently before I pull him close, nuzzling his neck before he says "For mine, sign as Kenny Ackerman."

I nod into his neck as I grab the quill and sign as he asked, my more sloppy writing spelling out Kenny Ackerman with ease, yet it lacked the flare that Levi's always had. I set the quill back in the inkwell and hug him tightly, listening to the sounds of the people around us. He grabs his own chair and sits down a few inches away from me as I see the twins walk up to our table and I smoothly fold up the forms and slip them into my pocket as I smile up at them. They nod at us as they plop down in the seats near us at the table and immediately begin reading something.

I shake my head at them as Levi tightens his grip slightly and kisses my cheek. I tighten my grip around his waist and pull him closer before I kiss him gently. He happily reciprocates and is more than a little annoyed when I pull away, giving me a pout. I kiss his nose as I turn my head slightly, hearing the trio nearby. "Yeah. But I really doubt anyone except you two would want to be taught by me. I'm a nutter remember?" I hear Harry say, seeming to both be trying to convince himself and others.

I see the Twins perk up at Harry's voice as well. "Well, I think you would be surprised how many people would be interested in hearing what you have to say." I hear Hermione say back, seeming to be convincing him to do something. Is she really trying to get him to teach something? I think as I look in that direction, not even trying to hide my curiosity. "Look. You know the first weekend in October is a Hogsmeade weekend right? How would it be if we just tell everyone who's interested to meet us at the village? We can talk it over there." Says Hermione.

"Why do we have to do it outside of school?" I heard Ron ask instantly, Hermione apparently was prepared for this as she replies "Because. I don't think Umbridge would be happy if she found out what we were up to." I can hear them packing up as I see Hermione appear in between the shelves of the bookshelf as Ron and Harry scramble after her. I shake my head after them and say "I swear to god those two wouldn't pass a single class without Hermione." Levi nods from his place at my side.

I snag my book from the table and adjust myself slightly, moving so that Levi could read with me. He moves so that his head is laying on my shoulder and he can read. I let him turn the pages, as he reads faster but is patient enough to let me read before turning the page. By the time dinner had rolled around both of the twins were deep in there work and Levi had made his way back into my lap. We then all gather our work an books and make our way to the Great hall, talking and laughing the whole way.

We take our seats at the table, the trio having already claimed their seats a few down from us and we're talking, they throw us a distrustful glance as we sit down before returning to their own conversation. We happily spend dinner ignoring the trio and talking to the twins, which wasn't as hard to do as you'd think. By the time dinner was over however I really just wanted to go to bed, something everyone seemed to agree with me on as even Levi was yawning on the walk back to the common room.

The walk up to our room seemed to take forever with our tired legs carrying us, making the already long ass walk seem to be miles longer than it really was. I let out a tired yawn as I walk over to my bed, arms stretching up over my head. I barely have enough energy to yank off my uniform and toss on my PJ's before I'm collapsing on top of my bed, barely awake enough to notice Levi crawl into bed with me, yet I still nuzzle his hair gently as he curls up beside me, underneath the massive comforter I'm laying on. Within the space of a minute I'm drifting off, letting out one last tired yawn.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

I open my eyes slowly the next morning, feeling the cold chill of the room on my back as I slowly approach consciousness. I yawn softly as I look around, seeing and feeling Levi beside me. I smile down at him, seeing that he's curled into a little ball under the massive comforter that I apparently fell asleep on top of. His head is directly under my chin, his breath coming in warm puffs across my neck, my left arm is thrown across him. Apparently I slept on my stomach all night. I rarely do that though…

I let out another yawn as I pull back the hangings on the bed, which somehow got closed despite the fact that I doubt either of us closed them. I glance at the clock, seeing that it's about breakfast time and it's almost time to get over to Filch so we could go to Hogsmeade. I sigh softly and start shaking Levi awake, who seems to be trying to curl up closer to me. "Come on midget… It's time to wake up… Especially if we're going to have time to get candy today." At the mention of candy he starts waking up, letting out a tired yawn while one of his hands come up to rub his eye.

I smile down at him and say "Rise and shine midget. It's about time for breakfast. Which means we kinda need to get up." He let's out a tired groan before burying his face into my neck again and saying "But I don't wanna get up… It's warm here… And I have you…" He let's out a small sigh of content as he recovers himself with the comforter. I sigh softly and say "Come on midget… We gotta get up… If you don't wake up with me I'm going to leave you here… And trust me it's not gonna stay warm here forever."

He pulls away from my neck again and gives me a small pout before I say "I'll get your uniform. Heck I'll even carry you if you want, but we have to go ahead and get up. We can sleep in tomorrow alright?" He let's out a small huff before he nods and says "Alright…" I smile down at him and kiss his nose before I get up. I quickly grab his uniform out of his trunk and hand it to him, he accepts it from under my massive comforter and sits up as I grab my own uniform. I easily yank it on as I see Dean and Neville get up and do the same.

I glance over and see that Harry and Ron are both still asleep, and set about to letting them sleep. As I pull on my shoes Levi finally stands up, his uniform looking perfect as always. I smile at him before I open my trunk and grab out my money pouch. I had found it among my stuff about a week ago, with a note attached to it, written in a scrolled handwriting that I had seen before. The note had said I have more money than I can spend in my lifetime. And I am the reason that the two of you are here. As such, I shall be paying for anything the pair of you want or need while you're here.

Inside the pouch was a good sum of money and I had to stop and thank whatever deity exists that I had read over that book on wizarding money. Levi also had a pouch within his trunk, yet he choose to leave it where it was and we could just use mine for the time being, as one was enough for the both of us to spend on. I toss the pouch into my pocket before I toss a bag over my shoulder and toss two cloaks into it along with our hats and a scarf for Levi.

As I finish packing our bag I toss our permission forms into my back pocket as Levi grabs onto my arm, which I reciprocate with a hug. He let's out a happy hum before we walk out of the room and head down toward the Great Hall. Levi and I arrive at the Great Hall with the majority of the others in our house, finding the Twins and Lee Jordan with ease and sit across from them. "How are the two of you this morning?" Asks Fred, looking rather pleased this morning. I grin at him and say "Tired personally. Levi?" He simply nods his agreement before digging into the plate in front of him.

"Same. It appears that Fred here stole all of the love of morning today." Says George, smiling at his twin. I shake my head with a small chuckle as Fred let's out an indignant sound and says "Bla Bla Bla you're just jealous that I'm awake and you're falling asleep in your porridge." He crosses his arms in an over dramatic way and turns himself away from his twin. George let's out a laugh and says "You're probably right. So, we're going to Zonko's Joke Shop first right?" Fred turns back around instantly and says "Yeah!"

Breakfast then passes rather normally with the twins being their usual selves before George says "Hey. Apparently the Trio are having a meeting in Hogsmeade today, and apparently they choose to have it at the Hogs Head. Which means if you want to buy anything there you may want to go there first, before everyone gets there." I nod at him and say "We can go there first then, and grab Candy after." Adding the candy part when I see Levi nearly start pouting. Levi nods in confirmation that I didn't forget about candy and goes back to his food.

I smile down at him and then tuck into my own food, which was mostly eggs and bacon as I couldn't stand porridge. After breakfast the twins than lead us over to the front of the school. "You have to turn in your permission form to Filch before he'll let you go." Fred says, motioning to Filch through the window as Levi shivers softly at the lower temperature as I see people tossing on cloaks and scarves. I smile down at him before I grab out our cloaks out of our bag. He looks slightly surprised when I hand him his.

"Thank you for remembering." He says before tossing it on as I pull on mine. They were jet black, much like our usual robes, yet these were far thicker and much warmer. They had a simple silver clasp at the throat, but the clasp has the symbol of the Survey Corps, which I thought was rather interesting. I hand Levi one of the hats, which are a simple black pair and hand him the scarf in the bag, which was jet black with the Survey Corps wings knitted into the last 6 inches of it. I smile at him as he tossed it around his neck before we exited the hall.

The wind was cold and windy, the air whipping icily around us. I let out a small laugh at Levi's shiver as we walk over to Filch. I hand him our permission forms and he snatches them up instantly, looking them over with a sharp eye. After a minute though he nods and allows us to pass, motioning over to the group of students allowed to go. Levi clings to my side as the wind blows around us, shivering at the chilly wind. I kiss his cheek gently as I see a small blush slowly creep across his cheeks as the wind continues.

I on the other hand am rather pleased with the lower temperature, watching as Filch finished checking off the massive list he had before waving us off as the Twins walked over to us. Levi clung tightly to my arm as we walked, the twins talking animatedly as we all began walking toward Hogsmeade. After a few minutes Levi apparently gets more used to the wind and joins in on the conversation, which was about what Harry might tell them at the meeting the twins would be going to. "Are you two gonna go?" Fred asks after a moment.

I shake my head and say "I don't think so. The Trio doesn't exactly like us at the moment, though I have no clue as to why." Actually they think we're Death Eaters sent here to watch Harry for Lord Voldemort. I think as I throw them a grin. Levi simply nods as the Twins raised their eyebrows at us before shrugging and saying "It's alright. They'll warm back up to you." "It's probably just a stupid misunderstanding." They speak one after the other in a way that sometimes makes me want to smack them upside the head and sometimes simply stare at them in pure awe at the coordination shown from them.

After a few more minutes of walking the village slowly comes into view, looking damn near picture perfect. I see that we're not the first to arrive as I see 3rd years to 7th years running around the village, darting into stores and walking around with their friends or partners. The twins bid us goodbye, barely staying long enough to pass me the money and tell us how to get to the Hogs Head as they sped off to the joke shop, leaving us at the main road into the village. I pull Levi to my side as we walk down the road, heading toward the Hogs Head.

Levi shivers the whole way, glaring down at the ground until I say "Hey. It'll be warmer once we get inside okay?" He glares up at me before nodding and saying "Alright. Let's just hurry. I'm freezing." Within a minute we had come up on the Hogs Head, which looked more like an almost completely abandoned pub instead of one that's still in business. We step inside, and are greeted to three things. One, this place was nearly empty, save for a few people. Two, the trio was already here. Three, this place was fucking filthy.

I could feel Levi's grip on my arm tighten instantly the second we stepped into the room. The windows were filthy to the point that barely any sunlight could make it through them, the room was lit instead by stubs of candles on every table that did a horrible job of lighting the place, the floor looked like no one had cleaned it in years, and to top it all off, the place smelled bizarrely of goats. I pull Levi closer to my side as the room goes silent for a moment before the smallest amount of talking returns as I hear the Trio talking about us as we walk over to the bar.

Levi was practically standing on my foot as I stopped in front of the barman, who looks down at us. He was rather tall, standing at least a head taller than I am, with a large amount of gray hair and a long gray beard. "What do you want." He says, making it more of a statement then a question. "How much for a bottle of firewhiskey?" I ask, helping Levi hold up his weight as he was nearly crushing my foot as he clung to me. "Two galleons." He says instantly, crossing his arms over his chest. I can almost feel the trio's eyes on me as I say "Alright. I'll take 5 bottles."

He nods at me and reaches under the bar, grabbing what I asked for and depositing five very dusty bottles of firewhiskey onto the bar, each of them having the words 180 Proof written on them. I let go of Levi for a moment, who gets down off my foot long enough for me to count out what I needed before handing it to him. He takes it with a nod before waving his wand at the bottles and making a cover appear over all of them. I grab the bottles and place them all into my bag, the cover making it so I could lay the bottles on top each other without fear of them breaking. Levi had only let me go long enough to do this before he had reattached himself to my arm.

I pull Levi over to the Trio, who are all staring at us with a mixture of awe and suspicion. Levi is glaring at everything as I say "You know. If you're trying to have a meeting in which you aren't overheard, here is the very worst place you could do it." Hermione looks like I slapped her as she says "Oh really? What makes you say that?" In a 'I know better than you do' tone. I roll my eyes at her and ask "Notice how you could easily hear my entire conversation with the barman?" She nods at me slowly, seeming rather bored with what I was saying.

"Well so did everyone else. Which means that everyone else here will also hear every word you three say here. Which is why anyone who had half a brain would have had your 'secret meeting' in the Three Broomsticks." I say, glaring down at her, refusing to be spoken to like a fool by some 'better than you' brat. She looks absolutely taken aback by my tone before saying "The Three Broomsticks is always packed, which means that more people would overhear." Her tone that of a mother talking to a child and I scoff at her.

"The point is that it's always full. Full of people and noise and laughter. Meaning it's harder to overhear someone else's conversation, let alone hear your own. Do you really think they would give a single shit about you or what you're doing? No. They're far too caught up in what they're doing to care about you. Where as here you're surrounded by people who sell information for a living." I retort, nodding my head at the people closest to them. She seems surprised and looks over at them, watching as the turn slightly away from her as they try and look as inconspicuous as possible.

Harry seems to be finally understanding what I'm saying as he truly looks around him before looking back at me as he truly realizes the exact weight of the choice he made here. "Speak carefully. For all words spoken, will always find there way back to you Harry." I say before exiting the pub with Levi. We step out into the chilly wind, Levi tightening his grip on my arm instantly as the cold air hits him. I smile down at him and ask "Candy?" He looks up instantly and asks "Please?"

I nod down at him and we make our way over to Honeydukes, walking past group after group of people heading toward the Hogs Head. We walk into Honeydukes, which was still full of people despite many of them making their way toward The Three Broomsticks or over to Harry's meeting. I let out a small gasp as I look around Honeydukes, seeing Candy and sweets piled as high as you could see inside the tiny shop.

I look down at Levi and nearly go blind from the adorable look he was wearing, watching him as he looked around the shop happily. I lean down and kiss his cheek before saying "Go pick! We're here for you, which means you can pick what you want." He looks up instantly at me and asks "Really? You don't want any?" I chuckle and say "I'll grab something for me, but there's so much that I think you should get to picking."

He nods at me and let's go of my arm, slipping in between people as he walked around the shop. I look around the shop and wander over toward the 'Unusual Tastes' section. They had about two barrels full of Every Flavor Beans, and around 200 different kinds of candy, on this shelf alone. I look over the labels on the jars, seeing candy of every kind imaginable. Blood Lollipops? Acid Pops? Chocolate Covered Cockroaches? Talk about unusual tastes, these are just plain fucking weird.

I see a package called Fizzing Whizbees nearby and look it over. Candy that makes you float when you suck on it? That sounds intriguing, but also weird. I grab a pack of them as people bustle around the store around me. I see Levi for a moment as he looks around the store, barely seeing him before he vanishes again. I look around seeing something else that claims my attention as I make my way over.

Drooble's Best Blowing Gum. Guaranteed to never lose it's flavor. Crazyberry flavor, blow bluebell colored bubbles that won't pop for days! I read from the sign on the barrel holding the Gum. I shrug and grab a few pieces, wandering until I found Levi, in the one area I knew he would have to see before he left this place. As I approach him I see him watching a wall covered from Ceiling to floor in Lollipops.

I let out a small chuckle as I ask "See one you want?" Levi nods slowly as his eyes sweep over the massive shelves of candy. He isn't holding anything as he looks over the wall, setting about to picking a few. I smile at him as I take the ones he chooses, ranging from strawberry, around 20 of them, to some weird ones like Razzleberry Watermelon, and another called Fizzle Drizzle Cherry. But even I have to raise an eyebrow at one called Mango Razzleberry Banana. In the end he has around 100 that he choose, and he was still looking over them before I stop him with a kiss on his cheek.

"I think that's enough for one trip, you can grab new ones the next time we come." I say, smiling at him as I try to not drop what I'm holding. He nods and says "Okay." He gives me a small smile as we walk over to the counter, a kind looking witch walks up behind the counter and says "How can I help you dears?" I place what I'm holding in my arms on the counter and say "I'd like to get all of these please."

She nods, not even seeming surprised at the size of our purchase, before she looked it over and says "You're lucky today. We're having a sale on all the lollipops in the store, there only 1 sickle each today, instead of there usual 2." I nod at her and say to Levi "Go grab a few more than, since there cheaper today. But only 5 more okay?" He nods instantly with a small smile and slips back into the crowd as she begins counting up the lollipops.

As she counts I see two things at the counter that I must get for him. Strawberry Bombs, mini fireworks of flavor explode in your mouth with every lick! Says a rather ordinary looking strawberry red looking lollipop. "Do they work?" I ask her, motioning to the lollipops beside her. She looks up at me than down at him and says "Yes they do. Perfectly if I do say so myself. They make your mouth look like a fireworks show, but they don't hurt."

I nod at her before I grab a couple of them and add them to the pile that holds my stuff before looking over at the second item. Sugar quills, candy in class for any occasion! I grab about 8 of them and place them on top as she smiles at me and asks "Your boyfriend has quite the sweet tooth doesn't he?" I nod softly at her and say "Yeah. He does." She nods as she continues counting and says "You know, we will deliver candy packages if ordered, they can be delivered within 24 hours of placing an order."

I nod at her and say "I'll keep that in mind." As she places the many, individually wrapped and labeled with it's name on a small silver tag attached to it. She places mine in a slightly smaller bag and places it to the side as Levi reappears with 5 more lollipops, each of a different flavor to the large pile he already has. She nods and counts the final 5 and says "Alright. That's 6 Galleons and 8 sickles for the lollipops, and 1 Galleon, and 13 sickles for yours."

I nod and pay her, doing the math and looking down at Levi and saying "You apparently got exactly 110 lollipops." He stares at me for a moment before letting out a small laugh. I place both of the bags in my bag, the shoulder strap starting to dig into my shoulder. She smiles at me and says "I placed a delicacy charm on your bag. It'll make sure nothing is broken inside it till you get back to the castle and take it out of the bag."

I nod at her as Levi tries to look at mine and asks "What did you get?" I kiss his nose and say "You can see later, I have something for you too, so be patient." He pouts before he nods and we exit the candy shop, stepping once more out into the chilly wind. He instantly attaches himself to my arm as he shivers, pressing against my side. I readjust my bag, which is far heavier now than it was when we entered the village.

Levi and I walk toward The Three Broomsticks, drawn to the place due to the warmth it is sure to hold for my tiny shivering companion. Levi tries to move as close to me as he can while we walk, but I stop as I see Malfoy walk over to us. I stop, Levi letting out an annoyed whine at being forced to stay out in the cold. I adjust myself, allowing Levi to get under my cloak as I pull him to my side.

He accepts happily, pressing against my side as I hold an arm around his shoulders, letting out a quiet hum at the warmth I provide. Malfoy stops a few feet away and says "I… Wanted to apologize for my behavior a few weeks ago. It was out of line and I deserved the way you reacted to my words." I nod along to his words and say "Apology accepted. Why don't you join us for a drink? Inside would be a better place to talk than out here freezing our asses off."

He looks surprised and says "A drink? I don't think I can. I have to be back at the castle pretty soon, my father will be expecting me." I shrug and say "Eh. Be a little late, the ass controls most of your life as is. Spend a few minutes doing something you want to do, instead of something that he would do." He looks absolutely surprised by my words before saying "Maybe I could spend a minute… I can make it in time if it's just one drink…"

I grin at him and say "That's the spirit! Come on, let's get inside." He gives me a small smile as I lead Levi inside, Draco a step behind us as I enter the pub. Just as I thought, it was loud and boisterous, and perfectly warm. Levi let's out a pleased sigh as we step into the pub, pulling away enough to simply link his arm with mine, I turn back to Draco, who is standing in the doorway with a slightly wary look.

"Come on, let's find a table." I say to him as we walk amongst the crowded pub, perfectly at ease in the noise. Draco follows us and sits down across from us in a small table in the back. Within seconds of sitting down a pretty woman with a curvy figure approaches, giving all of us a kind smile. "What can I get you today?" She asks, looking all of us over. Draco perks up at her words and says "I'd like a butterbeer, the same for them as well please." She nods and walks off as I give him a small smirk and Levi and I remove our cloaks.

I take off my hat and tuck it into my pocket as Draco says "I'll pay… Since I'm in a hurry and all." He looks down at his hands and I say "I'll trust your judgement, but I'm rather curious if your thoughts were on drinks or the lovely barmaid?" I wrap an arm around Levi and pull him close as we wait on her and I tease Draco, who blushes instantly at my words, stammering out something about 'It was on drinks!' As Levi let's out a small chuckle, usual mask of indifference on once more due to the removal of his scarf.

Draco looks at us and says "So… Why did you two invite me for a drink? Gryffindors don't normally like Slytherins…" I wave a hand and say "I asked you for a drink because I thought you might like one. Who cares if you're a Slytherin? I don't. I just see someone who could be a friend, if he stopped letting his father think for him." He stares at me, looking absolutely flabbergasted as Levi says "Close your mouth. You'll start catching flies if you don't. Also, where are your goons? I thought they couldn't think without you."

Draco snaps his mouth shut and shakes his head saying "I don't think for them! And Crabbe had detention today and Goyle is probably trying to buy enough candy to feed a small country." I let out a small laugh and kiss Levi's temple and say "You tried to do that earlier." Levi blushes softly before saying "I didn't get that much." I kiss his cheek as the barmaid walks back up and deposits 3 large mugs of butterbeer on the table.

Draco pays her and she flashed all of us a grin before vanishing back into the crowded pub. I smile after her and say "She's nice." Before passing Levi one of the foaming mugs. I grab another as Draco takes one and sips on it while I take a gulp, rather pleased with the flavor. Levi was happily sipping at his. It tastes… Like butterscotch. At least, that the closest thing I can relate it to. But it isn't sticky like butterscotch.

I take another gulp and set the mug down gently, making sure I don't have a mustache from the foam as the warm drink seems to heat me up from the core. Draco nods and says "It's an amazing drink during winter." I nod and say "That it is." Watching as Levi steadily drinks at his, having already half emptied it whereas mine was still mostly full. Draco looks at us and asks "If you don't mind me asking… How long have you two been dating?"

I look up at him and smile softly at Levi who says "A little over 4 months. At least, that's the official dating time." He nods and us and says "It seems like the two of you have been dating for years, based on the way you act." I smile at him and nod at his words. I take another few gulps of my drink, allowing the warm feeling to settle as I relax into my chair and talk with Draco, who is surprisingly talkative after he relaxed a bit.

Time seems to speed by as we talked, Draco and Levi getting into a debate over whether or not it was better to attack first, or create a defensive line. "Silent spellcasting creates a far better advantage when used in attacking, as it's hard to deflect what you don't know or expect." Levi says, giving Draco a small smirk as he says "True, but using it to create a perfect defensive line would be smarter, incase you're on a rescue mission."

I nod along to the two of them as the continue to banter, trading words and ideas like old friends. I smile at them while I slowly sip my drink, finishing it off as there debate comes to a close. I look up at the clock and nearly curse. "Draco, when did you say you had to be at the castle?" He looks up at the clock and says "Shit." Softly and says "About 10 minutes ago. Dammit he's gonna be pissed."

He goes to get up and I say "Hey. Calm down. Don't go running off like some half crazed idiot. Take a breath and get your head on straight. Just tell him I stopped you and you got caught up in our conversation, which is true." He stares at me and says "Really?" I nod and say "Tell him that we stopped you, since we're transfer students we don't actually belong to any one house. And you can blame us because there isn't anything he can do to us."

He gives us a small smile, looking relieved before he says "Well… Are you sure? He's close friends with a lot of people at the ministry and on the school board…" I roll my eyes and say "He can try, but unless he wants to come fuck with me personally he can't do shit. And besides, do you really think he's gonna care about me?" He gives us a smile and nods, standing up and saying "Alright… Can we do this next Hogsmeade weekend? It was… Nice talking to you guys."

I give him a grin and say "I'm alright with it. Levi?" Levi nods and says "A good debate partner is hard to come by." He gives us a smile, a true, unguarded, kind smile. So very unlike the cocky smirk I'm so used to seeing on him as he says "See you next time!" Before he exits the pub, I can see the door open and close for him and watch him walk by the windows. I stretch out carefully before relaxing and feeling Levi set his head on my shoulder.

I set my head on his as I wrap an arm around him and say softly "It sounds like home…" Listening to the loud noise of the pub, feeling perfectly at ease amongst the people. He nods slowly and threads his fingers through mine before saying "I miss the base… I miss our friends… Hell I even miss the noise and Hanji." I nod with his words and say "I agree… I feel like it's been forever since we've been home."

He nods gently as we sit there, I stare at our hands, letting out a chuckle after a moment. "What?" He asks after a moment, pulling away enough to give me a small smile. "Remember how I asked you out?" I ask, giving him a grin as his entire face goes red at my question. "Oh god…" He says, hiding his face in my sweater as I laugh. My laughter had barely died down as the twins made an appearance.

They sit down across from us as my laughter dies down to small chuckles as I hold Levi gently, nuzzling into his hair as George asks "What are you laughing at?" Levi sits up enough, and pulls his face away from my sweater enough, to say "He's laughing about the time he asked me out." Fred perks up and asks "Oh! Tell us more!" Levi let's out a small yelp and hides his face again as I can't hold back my laughter.

"It was amaz-" I go to say but I'm silenced by Levi's hand on my mouth as he says "Nope. You are not telling that story again." His words are muffled from where is face is buried in my sweater. I smile into his hand before I pull slightly away, his hand vanishing as I say "Alright Midget… Hey. Isn't it about time we got back?" The twins look over at the clock and nod. "Yeah, we better get back, since it's about a 10 minute walk back to the castle and the 3rd years have to be back by One. But we have to be back by Three."

I nod as I glance up at the clock, seeing that it's about 2:40 now. Levi finally pulls his face away from my chest and we all toss on our stuff, grabbing my bag before we begin our trek back to the castle, feeling the chilly wind whip around us as we walk. Levi is stuck to my side as we walk, the four of us talking and laughing to pass the time. We enter the castle through the main entrance, allowing Filch to mark us as returned before walking toward the common room.

The twins nod at us and say "We can meet you in the classroom after dinner." We nod at them as the dart up to their room with Lee barely a step behind them. I shake my head after them and nuzzle Levi's hair, as he had removed his hat when we entered the castle. I motion over to the dorm room and he follows me as we enter the room and take off our heavy cloaks.

I place my bag on the bed before I hand him his massive bag of lollipops. He takes it before looking at mine and saying "So what did you get?" I chuckle lightly at him before I say "Nope. You can learn on Monday!" He pouts as he places his bag in his trunk, looking through the bag until he found what he was looking for, which was apparently a Strawberry Lollipop as he instantly unwrapped it and popped the sweet into his mouth.

I smile at him before I place my bag in my trunk, snagging out the firework lollipops, before also removing 3 of the 5 bottles I had in my bag. I leave the last two and toss a couple books and rolls of parchment to make it look like school stuff before I walk over to Levi, wrapping my arms around his waist and saying "I think you have a sweet tooth that could beat even Sasha." I pull him gently to my chest, to which he let's out a quiet hum. I let him go after a moment, offering him a hand and asking "Want to cuddle in the common room till dinner?"

I knew I didn't even have to ask, but the pure joy that danced across his face at my question made my heart skip a few beats as he nodded enthusiastically and grabbed my hand, letting me pull him to my side as we walk down the staircase. The twins seem pleased as we make our reappearance, talking to a group of first years about the Triwizard Tournament, who are all clustered around the twins and watching them with fascination as they speak.

I smile at them as I guide Levi over toward a massive, comfy looking, chair. The couch we had once occupied had been claimed by two pairs of doe eyed love birds, who were trying their hardest not to make out on the couch and instead just trade really sloppy, innocent, lasting way to long, kisses back and forth. The chair is closer to the fire which meant it was warmer, and also facing in a direction that kept the young couple's out of our line of sight. I sit down first, sinking slightly into the soft chair as I place my bag on the floor, slipping my leg through the strap as a precaution.

Levi then sits in my lap, legs hanging off the side of the chair as his head lays on my shoulder, hands finding a grip on my sweater as he nuzzles softly into my neck, letting out a pleased hum, which is slightly muffled due to the candy in his mouth. I wrap my arms around him and adjust slightly, holding him gently as I stare into the fire, pleased with it's radiating warmth. Time passes with abandon like this, just sitting here with Levi who slowly sucks on his lollipop till it vanishes. As he finishes it I can hear the crunching sound of that last tiny little piece as it dissolves into nothingness.

I look down as much as I can, not being able to move my head much without removing it from it's place on top of his. He pulls the stick out of his mouth and tosses it, the stick landing perfectly in the nearby trashcan. "Good aim." I say softly as he chuckles, letting out a small hum and saying "Thanks." Within a minute the clock chimes, signifying that it's time to head down to the Great Hall. I sigh internally as Levi stands, stretching for a moment before offering me a hand.

I stand and take it, stepping out of the strap and grabbing my bag. We all then move as a group down to the Great Hall, Harry seeming far happier now then when I last saw him. It must have went well… I think as I see him animatedly talking to Ron. The twins walk over to us and say "Hey!" "How are you two?" I roll my eyes and say "I'm fine. You Levi?" He shrugs and says "I've been worse. How are you two?"

Fred shrugs and George says "I'm average. Excited, but average." I nod at him as we enter the Great Hall, the houses mixing temporarily as we walk in, yet instantly streaming off toward their own tables. We find a spot toward the end of the table, choosing to stick closer to the door. I slip off my bag and place it between my feet as Levi claims the seat to my right, the twins sitting across from us as the table fills itself with food.

I smile as I begin serving myself, Levi instantly ladling out a bowl of some kind of thick soup. Dinner is a loud happy affair, people talking about their trip to Hogsmeade or classes and what they plan to do on break. Break is nearly two months away! Why the fuck are they already making plans? I ask myself, before I nearly facepalm when I remember that Erwin and Armin had begun planning for the next expedition and it had been four months away.

I simply listen to the conversation, which was between Lee Jordan and the twins, who are talking about the pricing they should set to there products. "Thats too much! We need to make it so that anyone can buy it! From a ruddy first year to a blimey seventh year!" Says Fred, George nodding along before grabbing out a thick notebook and writing something down. "How about we sell them in packs? Of like, maybe two or three? Than we can keep Lee's price and still sell while also making a profit!" He says after a minute, showing them what he wrote.

They nod and everyone's happy again, moving toward happier topics. As dinner slowly comes to a close we all begin to exit the Great Hall, having been dismissed by the Headmaster. Levi and I manage to slip out of the Great Hall before the Toad had gotten up, also managing to slip away from the group of Gryffindors who were all headed to the common room.

We walk down the sixth floor hallway, seeing the portraits readying themselves for bed as the nearby torches dim as moonlight filters in through the tall glass windows. We find the classroom easily, it being one of the classes with a direct view of the moon, causing light to shine upon the mostly empty room. All of the desks had been stacked to the side of the room, leaving the majority of the room bare save for a massive rug that lay across the stone floor.

I close the door softly as Levi walks over to the windows, looking up at the clear night sky with a small smile, looking back at me and saying "Remember when we went stargazing on top of the tower?" I smile down at him and ask "And I asked you to go with me by climbing up the wall and perching on your window and asking you to come with me? And you nearly punched me when I opened your window?"

He laughs lightly and says "Yeah. That time." I smile down at him and kiss his cheek as he looks back up at the sky. The door opens again a few minutes later, revealing Fred and George, both looking pleased as punch as they quietly shut the door. "Hey!" George says as they walk toward us. "Hey!" I say, grinning at them and walking toward them, Levi walking with me. Fred plops down on the rug and holds up four shot glasses.

"Sweet. Where'd you find those?" I ask as I sit down, Levi taking his place to my right as George sits to Levi's right, the four of us making a lopsided circle. "Magic is magical!" He says, setting them down, one in front of each of us. I grin before I shake my head, letting out a small chuckle and reaching into my bag, pulling out a bottle and passing it to George. "Nice!" He says, looking it over before yanking the thin cloth cover off, taking his wand and tapping the end of the bottle twice, causing the cork inside of it to pop out, flying up into the air.

Levi catches it as it comes down, George grins at him and says "Good catch. Now. Who's up for Truth or Dare? You can get out of a Dare with a drink and you can keep silent with Truth with a drink as well." I nod and shrug. "I'm game. Levi?" I ask, looking down at my tiny companion. He nods and says "As long as there are no sexual Dares." I nod and so do the Twins, who look far to happy as George fills the glasses and sets each one in front of someone.

I look at them and say "Alright. I can start, but do we pick who we want? Or must we choose the person to our right?" They think for a moment before Fred says "Pick. That way we won't loose Levi early due to your dares/questions." I let out a light laugh at Levi's indignant Huff at Fred's words. I nod before I say "Fred. Truth or Dare?" I grin at him as he crosses his arms and says "Dare."

I grin evilly at him and say "I Dare you to take a shot." He blinks at me before saying "Dammit." And grabbing his glass, holding it up to eye level before he nods, shuts his eyes, and drinks it. His eyes snap open instantly as it touches his tongue, he swallows hurriedly with a great gulp. He gasps as soon as it's down and I can see the barest hint of tears in his eyes. "Holy fuck!" He says, watching the glass for a moment before saying "I know why they call it firewhiskey. Felt like flames were going down my throat."

I laugh lightly at him and say "Nicely done! Quite a few people would have spit it back out!" He glares at me as George and Levi laugh, Fred eventually let's out a snort, and soon were all chuckling before Levi leans forward and says "My turn. George. Truth or Dare?" George grins at him before saying "Hmm. I'll go dare this time." Levi nods and instantly says "I dare you to lick the floor."

George looks at him like he's insane before looking down at the floor, which had a small layer of dirt and grime on it simply from lack of use. "Aw hell no." He says, grabbing the shot glass in front of him and downing it, reacting the same way that Fred has as he downed the fiery drink. "Damn thats hot." He says as he pants slightly, wiping at the tears in his eyes as we all let out a laugh, Levi chuckling quietly into my sleeve.

George shakes his head and says "Yeah haha! My turn now. Levi! Truth or Dare?" Levi thinks it over for a moment and says "I'll say truth. Since none of us have done that yet." George nods and thinks it over a moment, before getting an evil smile and asking "Is it true that your a clean freak Levi?" Levi jumps instantly and stares at him before hiding his face in my sleeve and nodding slowly, causing all of us to let out a chuckle.

George refills there shots while I give Levi a tight hug before Fred says "Ahh, my turn has finally come. George my twin, Truth or Dare?" George snickers and says "Dare! I can easily take anything you throw at me." Fred nods before looking over at me, and down at Levi before saying to George "I dare you to kiss Eren on the cheek." George looks at Fred like he just began speaking an alien language.

Dear god they're both crazy as fuck. My mind screams as I see George look at me than down at his drink, truly having to contemplate whether or not he's going to do it or take a shot. In the end he sighs and moves, bracing himself on his knees and one arm before stretching up and gently kissing my cheek. The moment he had though I had to grab Levi and pin him to my side, holding my tiny, struggling, rather strong for his size midget so that he can't maim George. George returns to his spot and crosses his arms and says "There. Dare done."

I laugh lightly as I hold Levi, whose opted to simply glare at George from his spot where he's being squished against my chest. I feel his grip change, moving from trying to push away from me to graphing my sweater as he glares. "My turn right?" I ask, seeing the twins nod as George looks anywhere but at Levi. I turn to Levi, as much as I can, and say "Levi? Truth or Dare?" He instantly responds with "Dare." Glaring at me softly from where I have him pinned. I smirk down at him and say "Than I dare you to kiss the rug my love."

His eyes widen instantly as he looks down at the rug, than looking back at me. "Fuck no." He says before I let him go enough to grab his glass and down it, barely reacting until he swallowed it. "Hot." He says quietly, setting the glass down before burying his face into my sweater and letting out a deep exhale. "Fred. Truth or Dare?" He says after a moment, moving his face just enough to be heard. "I'd say Truth this time." He says, shrugging lightly. "Do you have a crush?"

Fred let's out a gasping choke, staring at him for a solid second before snatching up his glass and downing it. I laugh as he gasps, Levi joining me in our laughter as his eyes water. George is on his back, gasping out tiny snickers as he tries to get his breath. I grab the bottle, refilling both Levi's and Fred's glasses as George sits up, looking slightly red faced from both laughing and the high proof alcohol, and says "Eren! Truth or Dare?" I grin back at him and say "Dare my friend."

George gets a rather evil looking grin before he glances over at Fredd before looking at me and saying "Strip down to your boxers and stay like that for the rest of the game." I blink at him, more than a little surprised at his bold dare and almost feel his eyes boring into the side of my face. I glance down and see Levi glaring at me, looking truly murderous in intent as he watches me. I swallow, my throat rather tight all of a sudden as I blindly reach down and grab my glass. "I think I'd rather survive the night thank you." I say before I finally look away from Levi and down the glass.

It burned, almost like putting hot food in your mouth as I swallowed it, the burn traveling down my throat before vanishing. I gasp slightly as say "Dang that stuffs hot." Swallowing a few times to get the taste out of my mouth. They're all laughing, even Levi who is letting out small chuckles into my shirt. Fred takes a breath and says "My turn! Levi! Truth or Dare?" Levi looks up, shrugging and saying "Eh. I'll do truth." He nods before asking "Is it true that you and Eren have only been dating a few months?"

Levi blinks at him as he slowly blushed, nodding after a moment and saying "He asked me out 4 months and 1 week ago." George whistles and says "Nice! How did Eren ask you out?" Levi glares at him and says "Not your turn." While George laughs, nodding as I say "Okay. George, Truth or Dare?" He instantly replies "DARE MY LORD!" Crossing his arms in an overdramatic way and puffing out his chest. I snort, laughing at his pose as Levi snickers. "Alright then. I dare you to turn every desk in here into a bird."

He blinks at me, looking around at the 30 something desks before shaking his head and saying "Nope." And downing his shot. He gasps and shakes his head, watching as we all chuckle at him as Fred seems perfectly content to simply watch. Levi looks up at me and says "Truth or Dare Eren?" I shrug and say "I'll take a dare from you." He shakes his head at me before saying "I dare you to take 4 shots consecutively." I blink down at him before sighing. "Fine. Pass me all of them and I'll down them."

George nods from where he is, looking like the alcohol is finally starting to effect the two of them as he takes all 4 glasses and lines them up, refilling his own before nodding at me. I grimace at them before grabbing the first one and downing it, quickly following it with the others as I swallow down the burning feeling. I could feel the warmth of it settle in my stomach, warming me pleasantly from the core. I lean into Levi, resting my head on his as I wipe the reflexive tears from my eyes.

Levi snuggles into my chest as I lean against him, letting out a small sigh of content as I hold him close. "Levi! Truth or Dare?" George asks, looking at my content midget. "Hmmm… Dare. Truth doesn't like me." He says, sitting up slightly as George says "Alright! I dare you to take 4 shots! If you don't than you have to lick Eren's shoe to get out of it." Levi stares at him like he just got slapped, grip tightening on me for a second before he grabs the bottle from George, filling the shots that were still lined up from my round.

"I'm so going to regret this tomorrow." He says before he downs one, the others following it quickly. As soon as he's done he let's out a choked gasp, wiping at the tears in his eyes as he passes the bottle back to George, which is more than half empty at this point. I pull him to my side, which he happily accepts and leans against me as Fred says "Alright. Eren! Truth or Dare?" I let out a quiet yawn, feeling daring and say "Eh. I'll do dare." Fred nods before he says "I dare you to eat something in this room, besides the firewhiskey."

I nod at him and look around, seeing chalk and gum wads and other gross things before I remember the thing I had grabbed right before leaving our room. I grin at him and say "Alright." And pull a firework lollipop out of my pocket. Levi stares at it, looking surprised before saying "You got more? How is that different than what I got? Is it strawberry?" I kiss his nose and say "You'll see why it's different." Before yanking off the thin plastic wrapper, the candy being bright red and about the size of a gumball, and mentally cross my fingers before popping it into my mouth.

The moment it touched my tongue I thought that I had bit into a actual strawberry, it tasted that real, before it started popping. I could feel it start to go off, I grin and smile down at Levi, seeing tiny sparks of pink and red color jumping out of my mouth. I pull it out of my mouth, the sparks then coming from both my mouth and the lollipop as I watched them all stare at me, sticking my tongue out as the final sparks lit up my tongue as the lollipop continued to sparkle and explode, the fireworks making little strawberries as they went off, that or simply throwing off colorful sparkles.

I pop it back in my mouth and suck on it, pleased with my purchase of this magical treat as I felt it pop and spark in my mouth, yet didn't feel any pain. Within a few seconds Levi was tugging on my sleeve, looking up at me with an absolutely pitiful expression, looking at my mouth then back to my eyes. "Please?" He asks as he tugs my sleeve again, looking like he was going to cry if I didn't give him one.

I react instantly, pulling the sweet from my mouth and offering it to him, watching as his eyes light up with joy as he happily accepts the sweet, popping it into his mouth instantly. I smile at him, feeling the sparks vanish in my mouth as he cuddles into my side, his mouth glowing softly from the lollipop, provided this room was on the darker side.

We quiet down after that, Levi happily cuddled into my side, sucking on his lollipop while nuzzling into me, giggling softly every few moments, looking perfectly content where he is. George had yanked off his outer robe and is just laying on his back on the rug, seeming a little out of it where as Fred was laughing quietly and smiling softly at me. I can feel my head gaining that pleasant fuzzy feeling as I grab the bottle by George's feet, looking at it and seeing that we have about 4 shots left, if that.

I fill up the glasses in front of me, looking around our tiny circle. "One more round, than we can get our asses to the common room, provided it's almost midnight." I say, motioning to the glasses in front of me. George swings up, looking slightly dizzy as he takes a glass, and quickly downs it, setting it back on the floor as he coughs slightly, Fred doing the same. Levi and I take ours together, Levi unhappily removing the lollipop from his mouth.

I grin at all of them before I pick up my wand and tap the bottle, levitating it into the trashcan. Levi continues to cuddle into my side, grabbing onto my arm. He let's out these tiny adorable giggles every few seconds that make me want to just pull him into my lap and hold him for hours. But I resist and say "Come on. We need to get back to the common room." George nods and tries to stand, finding that to be far harder than he expected it to be.

Levi let's out a tiny whine at my words, nuzzling into my arm more insistently as I pull away. I kiss his cheek gently and say "Come on… I'll cuddle you as much as you want once we get them back to the common room." He pouts up at me before asking in a slightly slurred voice "Promise?" I nod and say "I promise…" He nods back and let's me go, allowing me to stand. I sway slightly, having to shake my head as I balance myself.

George is apparently unable to balance, but is okay with Levi helping him, letting my Midget pull one of his arms over his shoulders and letting him lean on him. I grab my bag as I help Fred up, finding that he can't even stand. I sigh softly as I say "Get on my back, I'll have to carry you." He smiles at me and let's me get him on my back, and I feel him bury his face in that spot between my shoulderblades.

I see Levi glare at him before helping George walk, Fred wrapping his arms around my neck and holding on. I nod at them and Levi opens the door slowly, watching for teachers before he and George exit the room, Fred and I barely a step behind them. The walk to the common room was pretty easy and uneventful, and we were lucky to see that the Fat Lady was still in her portrait, and to top it off she was awake.

"Hello you four. How are you?" She asks, smiling softly down at us. "We're alright." I say to her, giving her a smile that she nods at before opening for us. I see that the entire common room is empty, the fire had died down and the whole room gave off a warm, homey feeling as we entered. We easily walk over to the boys staircase, climbing them easily as George and Levi stumble slightly due to George.

Levi opens the door once we get to their landing, finding it to be nearly identical to ours as we walk in. Fred let's out a small hum of content when we walk in, finding the room to be rather dark as Lee Jordan had already fallen asleep. I see that the only two beds still in use have trunks in front of them, one with a large G on it and another with a large F on it. I nod at Levi who helps/drags George over to his bed as I walk Fred over to his.

I set him down gently, watching as he practically falls onto the bed. As he sat down he suddenly grabbed my shirt/sweater, and yanked me down to him, kissing me full on the mouth. The fuck?... I thought as my mind came screeching to a halt.

Hehehe. That was an OH FUCK! Moment wasn't it? I just love cliffhangers, don't you? Comment! Review! Tell me how I did!
