16. An unexpected date (Charlie/Blaise)
Charlie Weasley finally decided he needed a long awaited vacation from the dragon reserve he was working at and decided to return home. He regretted it the moment he walked into the house as his family wouldn't stop asking him about his life, from work to personal.
Once everyone had figured out he was still very much single, they all told him about a girl they knew that they could hook him up with. Unfortunately for them a girl is not what he wanted. he shifted uncomfortably under the close eye of Harry, who he noticed had been staring at him all night. Once the activity in the house calmed down, Charlie decided to go outside for a smoke, to clear his head and be alone.
Being alone was a hard thing to come by in this household, and he should have known better. No sooner he was standing outside, Harry came walking out and stood by him. No words were exchanged for a moment, but Harry broke the silence finally.
"I know someone that has fancied you for years, we just became friends." Harry stated.
"I told everyone inside I don't want to date right now."
"I think you would really like this person Charlie. Let me set this mystery date up and if you don't like them then I'll never do it again." Charlie looked at Harry and saw that his adopted brother really wanted to do this.
"Fine, but i'm telling you I'm not going to like this girl, who ever it may be." Charlie was a little uncomfortable when a smile lit up Harry's face and he started laughing.
"Oh I think you will change your mind when you see them. I know I almost did." With that Harry left Charlie speechless in the backyard.
The night finally came for Charlie to meet this Mystery person Harry was so adamant he meet, and Charlie had to tell himself he was not nervous about a hundred times. he found himself sitting at the empty table in the back of the restaurant, awaiting his date to arrive. He kept getting anxious when ever he saw a woman walk by, and smile at him, thinking this person was Harry's friend.
When he wasn't paying attention, he felt the chair across from him slide out and someone take a seat. He looked up and was shocked to see the person sitting there, smiling at him.
"Hey Charlie, I'm Harry's friend, Blaise." Charlie couldn't speak, let alone breath at the moment. They guy sitting across from him was gorgeous, Dark haye, deep blue eyes, tanned skin, perfect body. He looked to be Italian and this drove Charlie a little crazy.
"I don't understand." Charlie finally found himself saying. He never told anyone he was gay, and here Harry was setting him up with this guy.
"Harry said he suspected you might be gay, he has also known I have fancied you for awhile now. I'm sorry if he was wrong, maybe I should go." Charlie watched as Blaise began to stand up, but quickly grabbed his arm.
"No, please stay." There was no way Charlie was going to let this man go, not right now. Blaise nodded and sat back in his seat. They talked for a couple of hours, while eating, and Charlie found out they had allot in common, and that he really like his company.
At the end of the night Charlie apparated Blaise back to his place to say goodnight and couldn't help but pull the younger man into him. He looked into his eyes and saw no resistance, so he placed his lips upon the others. He felt the electricity flow into his body and never wanted to let go. After a couple of moments, he reluctantly pulled away, and saw the smile upon Blaise's face.
"I'm really glad Harry did this." Charlie breathed out.
"Me too, do you think we could do this Charlie?"
"I would be stupid if I said no." Blaise placed another small kiss on Charlie before he went into his house. Charlie quickly apparated back home, he had a friend to hug and then kill.
