auction - didn't know they were dating
226 words, by gdocs
Scorpius is not gay. Public service announcement! Scorpius is straight! He likes girls! And boobs! And... lady parts!
Albus Severus Potter is Scorpius' best friend. They are not, and will never be, boyfriends.
Because Scorpius. Is. Straight.
One thing Scorpius doesn't understand is this: why do people insist that they're dating? Why do people not allow two guys to be friends without making it sexual?
As far as he knows, Albus is straight too. Yes, sometimes they hug. So what? Albus gives Scorpius really good hugs. Like really good.
And yes, sometimes they cuddle together. Sometimes it's cold outside, people! Human body warmth is one of the best types of warmth. If it's really cold, then yeah Scorpius is going to cuddle with Albus to get warm. If they fall asleep in the same bed while cuddling, so what? It's warmer for them!
And they kiss! So what? Girls kiss each other all the time and guess what? It's completely platonic between them. Scorpius is slightly sick of people saying they're gay just because they're two guys who show their affection for each other. They kiss. Friends can kiss.
Maybe, maybe, Scorpius sometimes has fantasies and thoughts about Albus, but the fact of the matter is: he's straight. He's not dating his best friend.
(Albus, on the other hand, has never thought that they weren't dating)
