~What Am I Feeling?~
~Chapter 39- The First Time~
The 5th of May, Scorpius' birthday, came faster than they could have wished. The couple hardly spoke of the events to come on that day but when they did, their was a jitter of excitement. Even when they kissed or touched softly, their would be a certain anticipation, a glint in their eye.
But despite their enthusiasm, they still couldn't help but be scared and nervous. They were taking a big step, a step which some couples take much earlier in their relationship but it just made it all the more special now. They knew everything about each other and trusted each other completely, loved each other more than anything and now they were making a more physical commitment. In a way, it was better this way.
Scorpius woke up the morning of his birthday, curled up among the white sheets. It turned out to be a hot week, quite suddenly. The window was wide open and the fresh breeze tickled Scorpius' cheeks.
Lazily, the blonde lifted his head from the pillow, letting his eyes flutter open. He ran a hand over the cold space next to him and his thoughts immediately wondered to where on earth Albus was.
Scorpius stretched his arms behind his head and groaned. He only remembered it was his birthday when he saw the small present wrapped carefully at the end of his bed. He smiled, reaching over to take the note that was next to it.
I'll be back soon but don't open the present without me!
As if on queue, the door flung open and Albus stepped through with a huge grin as well as holding a tray of food.
"I half expected you to still be asleep." Albus teased, carefully placing the tray on Scorpius' lap.
"Only just woke up actually." Scorpius smiled as Albus placed a lazy kiss on the younger's lips.
"Happy Birthday, Scor." Albus smiled, gazing at his boyfriend.
Scorpius blushed under Albus' intense smile, "Thanks."
They kissed again but this time longer and more sensual. With nips of the lips and a mess of tongues, the two boys pulled back before they got too carried away. They smiled shyly as they caught each other's eyes.
"Later." Albus whispered with a quirk of the lips.
"Later." Scorpius repeated while biting his lower lip.
Albus pulled Scorpius' head towards him so he planted a warm kiss on the other boy's forehead. They slipped into a more comfortable position though there was still tension dwindling in the air.
Albus handed the small present to Scorpius, "Open it."
Scorpius' blush only deepened. He started to peel the wrapping paper off, glancing hesitantly at Albus every once in a while who was watching and hoping his boyfriend would like the gift.
When the wrapping paper was thrown to the side, a small box was left. Scorpius looked at Albus with raised eyebrows, "Are you giving me jewellery Albus?"
Albus chuckled, "Kind of."
Scorpius dropped his head onto Albus' shoulder and he finally opened the box. Lying on the little pillow in the box was a little pendant, a red ruby heart lined with gold sat there.
Scorpius gasped slightly, a huge smile painting across his face. He picked the pendant up, holding it to the light delicately, "Oh Albus… it's beautiful…"
"Let me put it on. It's for your necklace," Albus unclasped the chain holding Scorpius' stone, letting his fingers brush longingly over Scorpius' neck, "My mum gave it to me… When my dad was proposing, he gave three things to my mum, including the wedding ring and this. This was the second, James got the first, a bracelet. My mum told us that we had to pass it on, she told them they were special. She said that we had to give it to the person we loved the most, more than anyone on this earth. The person who makes your heart beat faster and stronger than anyone else, the person who makes you feel happier than ever in their presence. The person who you want to spend the rest of your life with…" The pendant fell down so it sat perfectly next to Scorpius' stone. Scorpius' breath quickened at the sincerity of Albus' words and explanation.
Albus started to fasten the latch on the necklace but couldn't resist touching Scorpius' neck so moved the blond hair out of the way so he could lay gentle but passionate kisses there. Scorpius gasped and allowed a small moan to leave his lips. The necklace finally stayed in place so Albus could start speaking again, whispering against Scorpius' skin, "That's you, Scor. I want to be with you forever and you make me so happy. I'm giving this to you because you're everything. You're the only one I could love forever."
Scorpius fiddled with the heart pendant, his heart thumping out of his chest. Out of all the sweet things Albus had said and done for him, this was by far the one that touched his heart the most. He felt himself fallen in love with Albus all over again in that moment.
"Al… There are no words to describe how much this means to me…" Scorpius rested his forehead against Albus' cheek, "Thank you, thank you so much."
They hugged each other close, not speaking but not finding the need to. They breathed softly, savouring the feeling of holding their lover.

The day went by fairly quickly. Scorpius received many birthday greetings and Albus even organised a cake for him at lunch. Rose, Lily, Hugo and the Scamander twins went to celebrate. Louis also sat with them, making obvious hints about their plans for that night when no one else was listening.
Lessons had dragged on, much to their annoyance. The lessons they shared, they had sat there tensely, anticipating the night ahead. The few lessons they didn't, they just waited and waited to see each other again. They were excited. And incredibly impatient.
They were sitting up in the common room with Louis and Martino who had come from the Gryffindor and Slytherin dorms. Scorpius was opening a package from Teddy and George, which was filled with sweets from Honeydukes most likely. He had also received some galleons from his parents, however after Albus' gift, by far the best was from Etienne; he received two tickets to a festival which Beyond Magic were headlining!
Albus watched Scorpius as he chatted to Louis. Finally, Scorpius looked up at Albus. Albus looked embarrassed but he flicked his eyes towards the stairs, hinting. Scorpius took a deep, nervous breath and nodded.
"We're going to go upstairs…" Albus said hesitantly, still watching Scorpius.
Louis raised his eyes suggestively, "Oooh, are you really? Have fun…"
Louis was laughing at them as they left the room, getting ready to leave with his own boyfriend. However Albus and Scorpius didn't even notice, they were gazing at each other too much. They only had eyes for each other.
They reached their room, finally being able to entwine their hands. Albus slowly pushed open the door and they stepped carefully inside. He closed and locked it immediately, not wanting to risk the chance of someone walking in on them. Their hearts were beating incredibly fast. They were nervous. Excited nerves. But nervous.
Albus led Scorpius towards the bed, their fingers hanging loosely. Scorpius' breath was coming out short and quick. He tried to regulate his breathing, so Albus didn't get worried but when he came closer to Al, he could hear he was the same.
They stood at the foot of the bed, staring at it for a moment. Albus tugged on Scorpius' hand and Scorpius understood immediately. He clambered onto the bed, seating himself in the middle. Albus joined him and as he crept closer, Scorpius slowly lowered himself down so he was lying flat on the sheets.
Albus climbed over Scorpius, straddling the younger boy's hips. They shifted until they were completely comfortable. Albus smiled down at Scorpius and Scorpius returned the smile with a blush.
"Are you sure you're ready, Scor?" Albus breathed, his lips approaching the blonde's.
"More ready than I'll ever be." Scorpius said softly.
No more words were exchanged, their lips touched and sparks flew. The kiss was different from the rest; it was soft, yet hot and full of so many promises. It brought more anticipation and started to erase the nerves.
They paused the kiss, though their lips were still faintly touching and a tingling sensation was left upon their skin.
"Still okay?" Albus chuckled against the other's lips.
"Merlin yes…" Scorpius gasped as Albus' hand wandered over his chest, "Make love to me, Al…"
~X~
Albus and Scorpius lay next to each other on the bed, completely nude, only covered by a thin layer of sweat. They were panting heavily, letting the recent happenings loll over in their heads and also revelling in the feeling of post-orgasm.
That had been beyond anything they could have imagined. They had been expecting it to be awkward and rushed but it wasn't at all. It was hot and passionate and it came so naturally to them. At the same time, the tenderness of the whole thing had been enough to make their hearts explode.
Scorpius turned his head to the side, admiring Albus' flushed face and parted lips. He smiled, not able to help himself, "Well…"
"Wow." Albus breathed, a smirk quirking the corner of his lips.
"Wow indeed." Scorpius pushed his head back into the pillow, trying to regulate his breathing.
Albus shifted so he could run a hand over Scorpius' cheek and down his neck, "A-are you feeling okay? It didn't hurt too much did it?"
"It did at first… but it was worth it. Definitely."
"Merlin, I've never felt like that before. Not just because it felt so good," Albus' fingers ghosted over Scorpius' chest, "But I've never felt so whole either."
Scorpius sighed, resting his forehead in the crook of Albus' neck. The brunette brushed Scorpius' sweat drenched locks out of his eyes, "The only thing we've got to do now is tell the family then we're set for the future."
"And get married of course." Albus teased.
Scorpius blushed in shock for a moment but quickly recovered and giggled, "Was that a proposal?"
"Still a bit too young, Scor. Still a bit too young."

A/N: So I'm sure a lot of you have heard about fanfiction coming down hard on stories with 'sexual content' in them... Now I'm annoyed about it, as I'm sure some of you are. I honestly think they should just introduce an MA rating and only let people access it who have got an account with confirms you are the right age... makes sense, it's what other websites do.
But I've had to delete a lot of my stories and I'm really annoyed about that, including Snapshots! I've written the whole of this chapter with their first time but can't post it now... I'm really upset about it :/ Hopefully one day I will be able to repost those stories but I don't know... I don't want to risk getting my account deleted really.
On a lighter note, this is the end of what I'm classing as Part 2... The next part is very intense, I have to say. Can't wait to start writing!
Also, I'm going to be re-posting my story, 'Without The Flick Of The Wand'. I'm making improvements as well as changing the POV but it should be posted pretty quickly really.
Thank you drumline, BlackDawnRose, lordsteinman, Satary and AFLlover for reviewing the last chapter!
Next chapter:: Albus and Scorpius are staying at Malfoy Manor during the Summer and decide to go on a romantic date. But did they go to the right place for that date?
