Chapter 11
Aleabar Seeds
The last week of November was a torture for Albus, the main problem being that the Mandrose Treatment had affected his ability to fall asleep. During the last weeks he'd just done it because of the potions, and now his body felt unable to just shut down on it's own accord, like some kind of drug dependence. He struggled at night, rolling from one side to the other, waiting for his body to finally give in, but it proved harder than he thought. He was sleeping barely two hours a night, and even if he spent the whole day practicing Quidditch, at night he'd still feel completely awake.
Scorpius felt bad for him, but there wasn't much he could do about it. Giving him something to fall asleep would just increase the problem in the long term, so it was up to Albus' body to recover its sleeping routine.
By the first days of December his mood had dropped dangerously low, the sleepless nights making his body feel tired and jumpy during classes. He was barely learning anything, and kept making excuses for falling asleep in the middle of the lesson. Scorpius felt powerless watching Albus sleeping during the lessons and frustrated over his poor performance at Quidditch. He wanted to do something for him, but didn't know what to do without affecting him further in a negative way or getting too close, letting the boy discover his true feelings towards him.
That night Albus felt particularly frustrated for not being able to sleep. He kept rolling around, grumbling and muttering under his breath, but Scorpius couldn't sleep either. He felt useless for not being able to help Albus. It was weird because he had never cared about anyone before. He wandered through life doing his thing and forgetting about everyone else, but for the first time he felt like there was someone worth helping.
He listened to Albus roll around and complain for about an hour, until he finally decided to do something about it.
"Merlin, Al, could you shut up?" he said, in a throaty whisper. Knowing that Albus wouldn't be able to ignore him. The boy immediately stopped moving.
"I can't sleep, I Can't. Fucking. Sleep, Scorp" he said, making emphasis on each of his words, while poking his head out of the curtains.
Scorpius could see that Albus wasn't wearing his shirt.
"Like literally, I can't, for the life of me, drift off to sleep. It's frustrating!" he said, looking at Scorpius with an exasperated look. He sighed and let himself fall back to his bed.
Scorpius quickly jumped off his bed and climbed on Albus' one. Albus didn't realize it until Scorpius was already sitting on the bed with his legs crossed.
"What are you doing?" he asked, sitting on the bed.
"I'm tired of hearing you whine, I know a technique to make you fall asleep." Scorpius replied, with a mysterious smirk on his face.
"Alright, lets's see it then..." said Albus, sounding challenging. He crossed his arms over his chest and waited for Scorpius to do something.
"You must lay down, with your head on your pillow."
"O...k..." Albus lay back down. "Do I have to close my eyes too?" he asked.
"No, That's not necessary..." replied Scorpius. He moved to the side of Albus, still sitting on the bed, and raised his hands.
"Ready?"
"Just do it, Scorp!"
Scorpius moved one hand with his index and middle fingers raised towards Albus and poked him right in the neck, aiming just above the shoulders.
Albus flinched a bit at the strike, but he lay quite still. He waited a couple of seconds, looking from one side to the other. Finally his eyes rested on Scorpius' face and he smiled.
"You're an idiot" he said, stifling a giggle.
Scorpius had never seen a smile as beautiful as that one, and he thought that it was worth it, everything was worth a smile from Albus. Scorpius smiled too, his heart swelled and warm with love.
"At least I gave it a try" he said, shrugging with a huge smile on his face.
"You call that a try? I think I'm more awake now than before!" replied Albus, sitting on the bed. Scorpius couldn't help but to laugh at that.
"Shu'up!" came an annoyed voice from outside the curtains. Scorpius muffled his laughter covering his mouth with a hand, which made Albus laugh too.
Once they both stopped laughing, Albus twitched his lip and looked at Scorpius again.
"So what now?"
"I don't know, I can't sleep either" replied Scorpius, trying to come up with something to do, and suddenly an idea came to him.
"I know! I wanna try something I saw a while ago in a book, while I was making some research for the Mandrose treatment." he said excitedly. Albus just looked a him with his face a bit tilted to the side, looking confused.
"You'll see..." he said, and with that he jumped out of the bed and walked around the dark room looking for something inside one of the cabinets. When he came back to the bed he was carrying a goblet and a bowl. He took the black bag from under Albus' bed and started looking for a specific plant.
"Aha!" he said triumphantly, as he took a handful of round seeds the size of small marbles. He put the seeds in the bowl and started crushing.
"What on earth are you doing?" asked Albus, fearing his friend had completely lost his mind, brewing some kind of potion in the middle of the night.
"I read a couple of days ago in a book, that these seeds, Aleabar seed, can cause strange reactions when consumed. Obviously it's all safe, don't worry. I want to see what happens if we eat them." finished Scorpius, filling the goblet with an Aquamenti charm.
"Are you sure this is...safe? Is it...legal?" asked Albus, weary.
"Of course it's illegal, but who cares, they're completely harmless. Probably we'll just feel lighter and more relaxed. It may even help us fall asleep!" said Scorpius.
"Oh...Alright...Let's...Let's try them then" said Albus, excitement build up in his body already. He knew that with Scorpius he could be reckless and not worry about being caught.
Scorpius genuinely didn't know what the exact effects were, but he felt reckless and excited, so he picked a handful of the crushed seeds and put them in his mouth, swallowing them with the help of the water. He then passed the goblet to Albus, who did the same, but the dark haired boy grabbed a bigger amount, just to prove who was braver.
The seeds felt incredibly dry and they tasted like soil. The water helped Albus swallow them. They didn't taste horrible, but they made his tongue dry afterwards. He waited a couple of seconds, but nothing happened.
"What's supposed to happen now?" he asked.
"I don't know, just wait a moment and we'll see." replied Scorpius, who immediately grabbed his wand and cast a Muffliato spell around the bed, just in case.
Albus waited patiently for five minutes, looking alternately at Scorpius, the bed covers, and the tester above him.
"I don't feel anything..." he said finally, after about eight minutes, feeling disappointed.
"Just...Merlin Al, you're so impatient!" replied Scorpius.
But this time everything sounded different. Suddenly Albus felt like something shifted in his head. A small buzzing sound in the depth of his brain made everything sound distorted. Words sounded incoherent and distant in his ears, and watching Scorpius move his mouth unable to understand what he was saying felt incredibly funny, and suddenly he started to laugh.
"Are you laughing at me?" asked Scorpius, crossing his arms over his chest. This made Albus chuckle even more, unable to understand what was so funny. Scorpius' face couldn't stay angry for long though, and within seconds he started laughing too.
Both boys felt like they had a ball of air in their bellies that made them laugh freely, unable to contain themselves even if they tried. Albus then realized that the buzzing in his head kept going, he felt lighter, and soon everything became distorted. he could see the curtains moving slowly in waves, twisting in weird angles. Everything slowed down, like they were in slow motion, and Scorpius' body moved closer, giggling.
"Shh...Shush...Al...You'll wake...ev..." he was trying to say, unable to form a full sentence due to his giggles. Scorpius tried to put his index finger on Albus' lips, signaling to stay quiet, but the strange sensation of being floating and the laughter made it impossible to keep his finger still, which made it hover all around Albus' lips, and then enter his mouth, which spawned an even more exaggerated burst of giggles from the dark-haired boy.
"What are you doing?" asked Albus laughing with Scorpius' finger still in his mouth. Scorpius laughed at the sight of the whole situation, and unable to stop giggling he crashed his face against Albus' right shoulder, trying to muffle his stupid giggles.
Scorpius' nose was pressed against Albus' naked shoulder, and with a sniff he could sense the boy's delicious and characteristic smell. He felt light and reckless, like this was nothing but a dream without consequences.
"You know what would be even more funny?...If we kissed" Scorpius blurted out, between chuckles. This made Albus start giggling again, thinking that it was incredibly funny.
"Why...would we do that?" he said between snorts, looking down at Scorpius, but before his body could react, Scorpius' lips crashed against his in an aggressive kiss. They both opened their mouths automatically, still laughing. The giggles reverberated in their throats. Albus realized that his senses were incredibly augmented. He could feel each millimeter were his lips touched Scorpius, and the sheets under his body, and the texture of the clothes stuck to his body. Scorpius slid his tongue inside Albus' mouth to reach each corner, causing explosions of sensations around Albus' whole body. he felt like he was floating in absolute bliss. Everything felt distant, like a dream; like he and Scorpius were together in a parallel universe, apart from everyone else, where the only thing that mattered was increasing this overwhelming arousal that already threatened to choke him. But he wan't laughing anymore as he felt his body falling backwards to the bed with Scorpius' body on top, kissing him and touching his chest. Albus just wanted more of this, and as the buzzing sensation increased, so did his arousal. He started touching Scorpius, lifting his shirt and throwing it to the side, feeling the boy's pale and warm body crash firmly against his.
"You know what would be even more funny?" he asked against Scorpius' mouth, touching the pale boy all over his naked torso.
"Hmm?" replied Scorpius with a groan coming from his throat. This time both moved rhythmically, grinding against each other.
"If you sucked me off..." said Albus, feeling as the words escaped his mouth without second thoughts, without conscience or filter, and once the words were spoken a rush of thrill and expectation dominated him, holding his breath until Scorpius finally answered. "Well, maybe I'll do it" he said, giggling against Albus' wet and red mouth. He slowly started pressing soft kisses from Albus' cheek downwards, his wet lips touching Albus' neck, shoulders, and breathing hotly over one of his nipples.
At that moment Albus had a ephemeral recovery of conscience, like going back up for some air before diving deep again.
"What am I doing?" he whispered half-heartedly, feeling the exquisite sensation of Scorpius' lips all over his naked body. He arched his back towards the blonde's face as he pondered the situation. It was definitely not normal, having another boy touching him like that, but somehow it felt so right, like it was what he always wanted. He closed his eyes as the buzzing in his head increased it's volume, pushing the thoughts to a dark corner of his mind, and had to moan lowly as complete ecstasy took over him. He felt like he was rotating in space, floating high and disconnected from gravity, and shame, and reality. He only felt Scorpius' sweet and hot lips sending bolts of electricity as they travelled south at an excruciatingly slow pace. The darkness of his shut eyes was dyed with sparkles of different colours as the blonde's mouth licked just below his belly button, and grabbed the waistband of his sleeping trousers to pull them down.
This is it, Albus thought as he raised his hips to allow the trousers go down to his knees, exposing his hard cock. He dared to open his eyes to see what Scorpius was doing, feeling dizzy as his mind recovered conscience of the physical world. He saw Scorpius stare at Albus' prick with absolute amazement, and then grab it and gently stroke it twice. The sensation was almost unbearable, and Albus had to shut his eyes again, giving in to the dazzling sensation building in his stomach.
Scorpius had never done it before, but he felt a buzzing in his head, and a drumming in his ears, and his whole body was tense with arousal and excitement, realizing that this was Albus' cock, and he wanted nothing more than to please the boy. He finally lowered his mouth towards the head of Albus' rigid cock and slowly licked the drops of pre-cum right at the top. Albus moaned loudly, feeling like he could come right there, but he wanted the feeling to last. He grabbed the sheets with one hands as the other came to rest on Scorpius' hair.
Scorpius then proceeded to take Albus in his mouth, feeling the throbbing prick against his tongue and the unfamiliar taste of pre-come going down his throat. He worked his mouth up and down the length of Albus' cock, each time sucking deeper as Albus fisted the sheets and moaned as he approached the point of no return.
Suddenly Albus was pushing his hips forward, unable to contain himself, fucking Scorpius' mouth uncontrollably, making it hard for Scorpius not to gag as almost the full length of Albus' prick went inside his mouth, trying to match the dark-haired boy's rhythm as the drumming beats in his ears increased their strength. He could smell Albus' scent more clearly than ever, feeling the boy's hand moving roughly against his hair and his prick inside his hot mouth.
"I'm...I'm going to..." cried Albus, louder than ever, but he didn't care because the feeling far surpassed his wildest fantasies. The buzzing transformed into a loud beeping sound as his cock left Scorpius' mouth and he came in thick splatters all over his naked chest, feeling strong spasms take over his body. Scorpius' teary eyes caught sight of this and it was enough to push him off edge, coming inside his pajamas without even touching himself. He moaned and groaned loudly, pressing his fingers into Albus' naked stomach and closing his eyes while the orgasm lasted.
Scorpius let himself fall over Albus, he managed to grab his wand and cast a cleaning spell before settling himself comfortably beside Albus, with his head on the boy's shoulder. Both boys felt the buzzing still, feeling like they were floating in the middle of nothingness, quickly consumed by a drowsy sensation, slipping away into sleep.
"We'll regret this tomorrow" breathed Albus, with his eyes closed and his head resting against Scorpius'.
"I know..." whispered Scorpius, before both finally gave in and fell asleep.
The next morning Scorpius woke up before everybody else in the room. He felt his throat sore and raspy, and he could remember vaguely what had happened last night. There were blurry memories, but he had a general idea of the whole situation. "Fuck..." was all he could whisper, as he realized he was laying next to Albus, who had his pants down, revealing his flaccid member. He reached down and pulled the boy's pants back up, making him awake from his slumber. But before he could fully come back to consciousness, Scorpius jumped out of the bed and walked to the showers without looking back.
"Fuck..." whispered Albus, covering his face with his hands, as the memories from last night flooded back to him.
Albus found Scorpius having breakfast alone at the end of the Slytherin table. He built up his courage and walked towards him, sitting across the table.
"Wha...what happened last night..."
"I don't remember what happened last night" said Scorpius quickly, looking at Albus directly in the eyes. He was good at lying, and he knew it. So he concentrated all of his energy to make Albus believe it. "I just remember us eating the seeds, and then...I just remember waking up in your bed...curious huh?"
"Really? you...don't remember anything?" asked Albus, completely falling for it.
"No...do you?" asked Scorpius, raising his eyebrows while taking another bite of his toast, trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.
"No, I...no..." replied Albus, doubt covering his whole face. He was a terrible liar, and his weary eyes betrayed him. But Scorpius played along.
"Oh...alright then. let's go to classes, we're gonna be late" he said. Albus just looked at him, surprised and confused.
"...alright..." he said.
Albus wanted to believe that Scorpius genuinely didn't remember anything from last night, but the longer he thought about it, the less sense it made. He had eaten more seeds than Scorpius, and he could still remember everything, so it didn't make any sense for Scorpius to suddenly forget everything. He realized that Scorpius was trying to pretend it didn't happen, and it made Albus feel weird, and uncomfortable next to him.
Albus knew that last night they had crossed the line. A line that he didn't even knew existed until he tasted Scorpius' lips for the first time. And now the panic attacks grew stronger, so for the next week he didn't speak to Scorpius again, until it was time to go home for Christmas holidays.
