The air was steadily becoming chillier as winter was easing its way into Hogwarts, tomorrow a day, which was well known, as all hallows eve would mark the last day of autumn. Al rejoiced as the Quidditch practice drew to a close, due to an ex-team member by the name of Lysander Longbottom, Slytherin failed to win the previous match against Gryffindor, the next match which would be against Hufflepuff house, was not until after the Christmas break however team captain Scorpius Malfoy had no intentions of letting his team slack off until then. When the first droplet of the warm shower water hit Al's cold skin he released a sigh of relief, more droplets came bouncing out of the showers head and Al embraced them as they quickly began unfreezing his hands face and neck. He felt he never wanted to leave the shower, he could easily have spent hours in it if it was not for the fact that he had to meet his boyfriend Scorpius outside the changing rooms, Scorpius was truly the only thought that could pull him away from his dazed existence in the showers steam. He lazily dried himself and threw on the clothes he had brought with him stuffing his Quidditch uniform into his bag swinging it round his shoulders and setting off for the door. Scorpius was leaning slouched up against the wall and still managed to look graceful, he white blonde hair newly dried and somewhat fluffy when Al's hair was wet and more messier than usual, Scorpius's silver eyes gave Al Goosebumps as they stared hungrily into his green ones. Al parted his lips to say hello but nothing came out, how was it that Scorpius still has this effect on him, Scorpius smirked at him.
"Nice hair, Potter," he said pointing at the wet birds nest that was Al's hair.
"Shove off Malfoy," he replied grinning stupidly at his boyfriend.
"Come walk with me," Scorpius said unsticking himself from the wall and strutting off with Al to wonder the corridors of the ancient castle they called home.
"Are you free tomorrow," Al asked nervously looking down at Scorpius's hand longingly wanting to reach over and grab it to entangle his own fingers within Scorpius's.
"As it just so happens I'm very expensive," Scorpius teased, Al rolled his eyes and quickly forced himself to take his hand.
"Very funny," he commented.
"Did you have something in mind?" Scorpius inquired his voice was like a story that Al's ears were forbidden to listen to, but if he didn't hear it he would cease to exist, Al wished he sounded like that, he reckoned his own voice sounded all but too common.
"I just thought we could visit the astronomy tower after the feast, because you know the views nice and we'd be alone and stuff," Al scratched the back of his neck with his free suddenly he was very flustered.
"Or why don't make our own feast up there? The great hall is always ten times louder on Halloween and I am not sure I would be assed to endure it," Scorpius said giving Al's hand a hard squeeze.
"Yeah that sounds much better if I'm honest," Al said giving his boyfriend a light peck on the lips, it was true that the Halloween feast he always sat with his family even back when they were friends in the first few years it was tradition however this meant more alone time for the boys and that was not something Al was going to argue with.
The rest of the day pasted by and before Scorpius knew it, it was the day of all hallows eve and he was minutes from joining Albus potter on top of the astronomy tower for what could be called their second date, Scorpius smiled to himself and pulled his Leather Jacket over his shoulders and patted his hair down before grabbing his wand and leaving the bathrooms of the boys dormitories. As he descended the stairs to the Slytherin common room, it lay empty and quite, everyone must already be at the Halloween feast. Scorpius always loved the Halloween feast it was one of the very few times that he would allow himself to indulge in foods that were bad for you when training. He scanned the room for Al but couldn't see his favorite mess of black hair and lifted his eyebrow, he must have gone on up to the tower. He left the common room into the freezing corridor of the castle and began walking towards his destination, the hall was scattered with small groups of two, muttering an giggling to one another, no doubt it being couples looking for the safety of an empty corridor to take part in some holiday antics. He smiled at a few of the girls as he walked passed, most of them grinning and blushing which caused their boyfriends to throw Scorpius looks of anger and hatred. The boys had arranged to meet in the common room and would walk together to the tower so Scorpius was finding it strange that he hadn't yet come across his boyfriend on his travels, given Al's history Scorpius decided to check the great hall, Al may have wanted to spent a small amount of time with his family as Scorpius was getting ready.
Scorpius entered the large hall, it's celling covered in floating jack O' Lanterns and long white candles, the tables crowed with many hungry students that stuffed there face full of pasties and candy while washing it down with pumpkin juice, Scorpius looked towards the Gryffindor table again searched for the mess of black hair that he longed to run his fingers through, but his eyes only fallen on the small red haired cousin Rosie, Scorpius approached her his face wide in smile, the girl chatted away with her family and friends about how great it was that they didn't have to worry about homework, this of course was unusual but even the smartest people need a break.
"Rosie have you seen Al?" Scorpius asked coolly sitting down beside her, feeling the eyes of his former friends at his own house table burning into his back, Rosie turned to him and smiled.
"I haven't" She answered popping a lemon drop sweet into her mouth and pulling her face tight, this was followed by laughter of the group around her "Last I heard you two were meeting at the tower" she continued taking a sip of her juice looking at him her face a little red.
"Yeah we were suppose to walk together but he seems to have left on his own" Scorpius said a little disheartened, he rose from the seat beside her and looked once more around the hall "I guess I'll have a look about for him, if you see him tell him I'll meet him at the tower" he walked slightly as Rosie called after him.
"Maybe he has gone on up?" Scorpius nodded and gave her a thumbs up in answer to her suggestion and began walking towards the great hall doors again, breathing deeply he heard footstep behind him as he stepped out of view of the hall and in the direction of the Tower.
"Off you see your boyfriend Malfoy?" Lysander spat from behind him; Scorpius rolled his eyes and sighed.
"Don't start Lysander, your jealous you never got with me first that's all" the three boys that stood with Lysander choked slightly while trying to hide their laughter, Lysander scold.
"Don't be sick Malfoy" his eyes were wide "Your tainting you family's pure blood with such acts" he spat taking a step closer to Scorpius, Scorpius had never been afraid of Lysander, more felt sorry for him than anything, but now was not the time to play friends. Scorpius straightened himself and stared into Lysander's eyes.
"Don't speak of my family in such a manner Longbottom" he hissed, his eyes turning to almost slits "you don't know what you'll get yourself into playing with fire like that" Lysanders face grew white "Now am I going to have to hex you? Or are you going to waddle your way back into the great hall with you lackeys and continue to eat yourself into a sugar coma?" Scorpius continued, Lysander backed away and looked to his friends his eyes pleading.
"This isn't over Malfoy, you and Potter hurt my sister and I don't take that lightly," he said over his shoulder as they rushed back into the hall leaving Scorpius alone to continue his search for Al.
Finally Scorpius reached the top stair of the tower and was about to push the large wooden door open but paused to see if he could hear anything from behind it all, he sighed and screwed up his face, not even a footstep, he thought to himself and as he unlocked the door and pushed it open. A blanket was laid out on the ground before him covered in many types of sweets and food and two glasses with a bottle of wine and fire whiskey, Scorpius' favorite, a few candles floated overhead and lay silently blowing beside the blanket. The night sky was glittering with stars, it was a cool night, but cold and Scorpius pulled his jacket closer to his body as a slight breathe of wind passed by, Al stood with his back to the door and his hair blowing in the wind, looking towards the sky. Scorpius smiled and cleared his voice, this caused Al to jump slight and turn around, his skin in the moon light glowed and Scorpius wanted nothing more than to reach out and run his fingers over it. Al blushed and smiled walking towards Scorpius, both meeting at the blanket that lay warm looking on the ground under them.
"So here is where you are hiding? I thought we had agreed to walk up together" Scorpius asked placing his hand on Al's face and leaning in kissing him hard on the mouth, pulling back Al smiled.
"I wanted to surprise you" he said placing his arms out wide in front of him and shouting "Surprise" Scorpius smiled and sat down on the blanket pulling Al down with him.
"I am surprised, you have out done yourself, I was think a little glass of fire whiskey and maybe a few pumpkin Pasties, but this is something else" He lifted a medium sized sugar covered circle and held it out to Al.
"That's a muggle food, it's called a doughnut, dad's obsessed with them back home" he smiled "I thought you would like to try one" Scorpius examined the doughnut and took a bite, his face getting covered in sugar, he smiled as he chewed.
"This is good, good choice Potter" he said lacing it back on to the small plate where it had been. Al smiled back and grabbed two glasses and the Fire whiskey and poured two glasses, one for him and Scorpius who took it with quick pace and knocked it back placing his empty glass in front of Al for a refill, Al laughed and poured.
"I'm beginning to think you have a drink problem" he laughed and took a sip off his own drink sitting in front of him and lifting a grape, Scorpius sipped at his and followed suit, sitting the glass down and place his hand on Al's.
"It's beautiful and peaceful up here" he smiled looking into Al's bright green eyes and almost getting lost "The great hall is like a war zone, everyone is there" he went on and lay back, Al following him and placing his face right beside Scorpius's, Al leaned over and kissed Scorpius lightly licking at his bottom lip and smiling as Scorpius allowed him enter into his mouth. Al and Scorpius explored each others mouths as if pulling away would make one of them disappear. Scorpius rolled over on top of Al and kissed at him hungrily, Al grinded his hips up towards Scorpius and moaned softly. Scorpius pulled back smiled pulling his top off and reaching forward to take off Al's the two boys looked at each other longingly as their eyes traced every inch of each other. Scorpius leaned forward and started to kiss at Al's neck, this caused his back to arch and sent little shivers down his spine. He began kissing down on to his Abdomen and stopping just above his jeans waistband and smirk. Al's breathing was heavy and ragged, how did Scorpius have this power over him, he would never have through he would have been the type of guy to be doing such things on top of the astronomy tower. Scorpius undone Al's button and zip pulling gently at his trousers to come off, Al lifted his hips put to make it easier, he became more aware of the cold air now that he was basically naked, he shiver slightly and looked at Scorpius who was staring down at him.
"What?" he asked slight alarmed "Is everything ok?" Al was becoming slight self-conscious of himself with Scorpius laid his hands on Al's hips and dropped his head just above his manhood and breathing, Al feeling his breathe hot on himself and moved his hips slightly up with out realizing, he felt his face go a little red as Scorpius smirked widened.
"Wow settle down we have all night" he whispered placing his hand into Al's underwear, Al grasped deeply and felt his eyes closing with pleasure, moans escaping his lips and throat as Scorpius hand moved slowly up and down his shaft. Al sat up and pulled Scorpius closer to him, Scorpius never losing his grip on Al, Al's back tensed with pleasure as Scorpius speeded up, there wouldn't be much time if Scorpius kept this pace up, Al thought to himself and without another thought he reached into Scorpius already opened trousers and down into his underwear, mirror Scorpius movements on his own manhood. Both boys threw their heads back as the intense feelings of pressure built up within them. Al kissed Scorpius hard and passionately, a kiss that Scorpius was only to willing to return, both of the boys free hands gripping on to each other hair to steady themselves. Their breathing was ragged and heavy, Al moved his hips forwards slightly, while Scorpius wasn't the type to be shy and pushed himself hard and fast in Al's hand. The pressure was becoming too much and both boys had filled the night air with loud moans and groans of pleasure. Suddenly both boys gave out a long and loud moan that seemed to echo off the night sky and return to them as the erupted into each others hands, collapsing beside one another trying to steady their breathing Scorpius pulled his hand from Al's underwear and wiped his hand on the blanket beside him and pacing his arm around Al, Al followed but he curled up into Scorpius body, forgetting the cold air that would normally be nipping at their skin. The two lay in silence as their breathing slowed and became shallow.
"Well that was interesting" Scorpius breathed with his eyes closed, Al looked up at him and smiled.
"Yeah, this is by far the best Halloween I have ever had to date" Scorpius breathed out a soft laugh and kiss Al on the top of his head, it still felt weird that both of them after intense situations could find comfort almost anywhere to fall asleep, as long as they were together.
