10th, January, Transfiguration classroom
As the class ended with all the students filing out Harry turned to Daphne, Hermione, and Neville saying "I will see you guys in a minute?" getting a nod from his friend and a reluctant nod from his fiancee.
"Why Mr. Potter, I have to ask what is your intention behind getting me alone in the classroom" Minerva teased with a smirk leaning back in her chair, her public appearance glamor gone revealing the beauty hidden underneath. Her raven black hair flowed back down to her waist, her curves now more prominent through her thick robes and her beautiful bluish green eyes unbidden by glasses.
He admired her for a minute as he walked towards the table stood on the opposite side before saying "My intentions a simple Minnie, I desire to ask if you are free for a afternoon tea, at your quarters as I find myself missing the warmth your company my dear Minnie~" his voice deepening as her newly assigned nickname rolled off of his tongue like a sinfully sweet honey and unconsciously flaring his aura raising the temperature of the room.
The older witch felt a shiver travel down her spine spreading through her breast, hardening nipples which started oozing milk ending down to the her rapidly moistening core soiling her undergarments. Rubbing her thighs together and holding back moan but a whimper escaped as she said "I… I share your sentiment Harry, I have missed you so much over the holidays. How about Thursday, same time as always"
"Thursday? A little further down than I was expecting but I guess we are both quite busy with everything" he sighed looking a little disappointed which tugged at her heartstrings.
She stood up and made her way over to his side, on autopilot kissed him on the corner of his mouth saying "Don't look so down, Mo-ghraidh, it's not that far and if you want we can do it more often after all I can never get enough of you" she husked in a raspy voice. It would just be so easy to kiss him, express everything she felt, and let him take her to the table in her classroom. Oh how many nights she has soaked her sheets fantasizing about it.
Yet she can't, until he takes charge she won't, as much as she needs him she also wants to do it the right way, not the easy way.
He felt her warm breath, touch of her lips in his skin and felt all air leave his lungs, his face getting redder by the second feeling a little lightheaded and swimming in the scent of bluebells. Taking gulp he looked in her eyes replying in a deep voice "I feel the same Minnie, can't get enough of you! So let's make it Monday and Thursday, we will think about something for summer"
For a couple of minutes, they stared into each other's eyes breathing heavily before Minerva broke the moment saying "I… agree Harry, so I will see you on Monday, after Lunch"
He smiled "Can't wait Minnie" he said kissing her on the corner of her mouth before leaving the class and a beaming witch in his wake.
As he joined his friends he found Tracey, Luna, Susan, and Hannah along with them. The redhead was facing away as she was talking with Hermione, while Neville was busy with Hannah, and Daphne was catching up with Tracey. Seeing his arrival hadn't been noticed he carefully made his way behind her before snaking his arms around her and kissing her neck.
Suddenly feeling a pair of strong arms around her torso and warm lips around her neck kissing her making her moan as she leaned back. Her hands went up roaming through the familiar messy of black hair relishing in the sensation for a minute before bunching them and pulling them away, she turned her head tilting up slightly and kissing her fiancee deeply.
Hermione and Luna watched with the bushy-haired witch rolling her eyes while the pixie blond simply smiled at them. Daphne and Tracey turned just in time to see this with the former getting beat red as such a public display of affection, not yet comfortable with any form of intimacy.
As the kiss ended she cooed her face flushed red "Hmmm… hello there love, by the look on you been busy" her hand still roaming in his hair.
"Hey Sue, I know… but soon I will remedy that after all I owe all my ladies more than a few dates", he said pecking her before squeezing her closer and glancing at his blond fiancee.
The witch who averted her eyes but felt a tingling in her stomach feeling his gaze on her while the redhead beamed at him "Oh I can't wait! I have a place in mind that will be perfect for our first date, the only catch is we have to go in summer"
He smiled "Anything you want love" pecking for the last time before his stomach grumbled not lowed to be heard outside but a clear sign that it was time for lunch. He sighed against crimson red hair saying "And now I think we should get some lunch, cause I am bloody hungry"
"Stole words out of my mind, brother of mine!" Hermione commented as she felt her stomach grumble.
Harry turned to Neville and Hannah who were lost in their world, he sighed yelling "NEV! HANNAH!"
His voice startled the love birds out of their haze bringing them back to reality. Their faces were on fire making everyone giggle while he continued "Good now that you guys are back with us we should be on our way down" as he took Susan's hand while offering Daphne his hand.
The blonde took it blushing bright red as she entwined her fingers with his loving the feeling of warmth and safety it provided her and the way he smiled at her, it made her feel like everything would be okay. Soon they were leading the group in the direction of the great hall with Hermione following behind along with Tracey and Luna while Neville and Hannah followed hand in hand.
Through out the lunch Harry's scar was burning, at first it was just a itch but as the time went on he felt pain increasing more and more. The noise around him didn't help ,he felt as if his head was going to explode any second now. Trying his best to hide he kept eating little bites with a straight face and taking deep breaths.
But all his efforts were for naught as his blonde fiancé who was sitting on his left did notice so did Fleur who was sitting on his other side and busty redhead who was sitting across him. With a nod Fleur squeezed his hand asking "Mon Amour? Are you alright?"
Though her question was but a polite gesture as she could feel pain, nausea and discomfort radiating from him. Physical touch only reaffirmed that what she already knew. Sometimes being a natural empath felt like a curse.
"Hmm… um oh, nothing just…" he started but his mask slipped and a pained look came on his face which he quickly tried to hide with a smile but was unsuccessful as his fiancees were already worried about with along with his sister.
He sighed giving both the fiancé of his kisses, sharing a look with third saying "I… I just need some air… I will see you guys later at… um our usual place? We still have to figure out what the hell that screaming egg is about… " he quickly pecked FLeur before standing up and walking out.
Three witches were about to follow after him with but Hermione stopped them saying "Don't, let him be for a while" as she calmly took a sip of water from her goblet.
Seeing the outrage on all three witches' faces, he leveled them with a stern glare continuing "I know what I am talking about. So give him some space to clear his head. Once he is done he will come back and talk to you about it himself.
But if you go after him right now, he will just shut himself down to you. Trust me I made that mistake in our first year took him a long time to open up again, it still does" continuing with her food.
There was a silence before they all agreed with silent nods and they continued with their lunch worry for their green eyes wizard plaguing their thoughts.
The very wizard who walked out clutching his head found himself sitting on the rock near the lake which was his usual place to relax whenever he felt overwhelmed or when pain in his head was beyond manageable. He enjoyed calm and letting it sooth his mind with Squid entertaining him from time to time. Somehow the squid could sense when he there, another mystery of the magic.
"Hadrian?" a heavily accented voice drew his attention. He turned only to see Sif coming towards him dressed in a simple Red knitted sweater, form fitting black bottoms with leather boots. All of it enhanced her beauty many folds and was successful in distracting him from his woes even if it's only momentarily.
Seeing that she had his attention she smiled moving closer to him and sitting beside him on the ground, their shoulders touching and asked "So vhat's wrong?"
The question brought him out of the haze as he sighed "Nothing, just wanted some quiet and peace" his body relaxed as he answered truthfully with a smile which unlike before reached his eyes. Shaking the weary and broodiness off his face before asking "What about you? Are you doing okay? I mean after everything that has happened"
She gave him a small uncomfortable smile "A little sleep deprived but overall I am… okay" She took a deep breath and released it "I was just going for lunch vhen I spotted you sitting here all alone and came to keep you company"
He smiled before saying "Listen Sif… I… we… I mean… your aunt…"
'He looks so cute when he is bumbling! And by Odin, dose eyes!' she thought a little red dusting coming on her cheeks as she added "I know all about it Hadrian, it's videly known about tradition back home. Every clan chief chooses a shield maiden for his heir and dey are bonded for life with a blood ritual. After my mother's death in de last clan war, my aunt got every protect of me, she volunteered to be my shield maiden"
Harry nodded before asking "But what about your father? And how does it work if heir was male or you had twin brother?"
She smiled "Vell my grandfather chose a hand maiden for him and all of his late siblings vith a tournament. My mother won and became father's shield maiden well you can figure out the rest" with smirk and wink.
She cooed "Aww! You are so adorable Hadrian" when he looked a little flustered and her comment only made him redder.
"As for your other question, it would be the same if a shield maiden tourney were held and one would have been chosen. Now if I had a brother, no matter whether younger or older, we would have to prove ourselves worthy to the clan with various tests" she ended with a sad smile.
He gave an understanding nod and there was a brief silence. Sensing the somber mood he asked "Why are you wearing a sweater? I thought you never got cold"
She blinked looking at him for a second before shrugging "I don't… I just like it. Why don't you like it?" giving him puppy eyes complete with a cut pout adorning her lips.
"What! No… No… not no… I mean! You… you look gorgeous!" He answered quickly before adding "It's just, I thought you won't get that cold naturally"
She nodded "I don't but have to keep up the appearances, back home I am alway in a tank top and a shorts, it's very freeing" she said with nostalgic smile but she turned to fiancee and found him a little dazed. With a smirk on her, she teased face "Are you imagining me ina tank top and shorts, Hadrian~"
Seeing him turn atomic red and avert his eye contact. She chuckled loving how easy he was to tease and how cute he looked, enjoying it a little too much, she piled on whispering "You should after all you are the only one vho my explicit permission to do so~" in a low husky tone
Now the emerald-eyed young man looked like he was about to pass out but thanked magic that he didn't. He gulped before stammering a reply "Go… od to know" with a goofy grin on his face their face barely an inch away from his.
She smiled before leaning back giving him space to breathe asking "So any clue vhy the egg screams?" seeing his shocked expression she shrugged "Viktor opened it in de dining hall after task, I sure everyone was yelling at each odder for a rest of de day"
He sighed fetching the miniaturized golden egg from his jeans pocket saying "No, no luck so fa…" Before could complete the egg suddenly resized and fell, tumbling down the slop.
"Hey Hadrian? Why did your egg resize suddenly?" She asked as they watched the egg on it's journey.
Not taking his eyes off of the egg he said "Cause I forgot to reapply the charm!"
"Shouldn't we… I don't know, stop it before it goes into the lake?" her question made both of them blink for a moment before, chaos erupted as both of them tumbled getting up before following the egg down hoping to catch it but failed as it dropped in the lake.
Harry and Sif jumped after it. Both of them went underwater when they noticed that somewhere during it's tumble the lock of the egg opened and the screaming turned into a melodic voice singing
"…And to recover what we took,
But past an hour, the prospect's black, Too late, it's gone, it won't come back.
Come seek us where our voices sound, We cannot sing above the ground,
And while you're searching ponder this; We've taken what you'll sorely miss,
An hour-long you'll have to look, And to recover what we took,
But past an hour, the prospect's black, Too late, it's gone, it won't come back.
Come seek us where our voices sound, We cannot sing above the ground,
And while you're searching ponder this;…"
Both shared a shocked look before he closed it and as they surfaced back up both gulped air but a second later Harry started panicking and flailing in the water. She was quick to realize the problem and swimming towards him, she easily helped him to the shore and out of the lake.
Both coughed up some water "you *cough* don't know *cough* ho… *cough*…w to swim!"
"No *cough* I acted *cough* on instinct" as he coughed up last of the water and laid on the ground beside her.
"Mermaids! Dat's vhy ve couldn't hear it in the open air!" Sif explained looking up at the cloud sky.
He nodded wheezing out "Yeah, now I just have to learn to swim and figure out some way to breathe and stay underwater for an hour" As the wind blew he shivered from head to toe. Brandishing his wand he applied a quick drying charm followed by a warming charm, as the relief flooded his system he turned to Sif asking "Do you wan…" but his tongue froze as he saw the beauty laying beside him.
Thanks to water her sweater was clinging to her body like second skin and so was her bottoms. Her breasts were perfect orbs of flesh topped with small peaks under the red knitted wool while her muscled torso led the way down to where he could see the clear outline of her panties and how they stuck to her mound to create perfect camel toe.
It was only a second but it was enough for him to once again turn atomic red when he caught his fiancee's eyes and she gave him a knowing smirk. He gulped asking in a squeaky voice "Do you want me to dry you" air leaving his lungs at this point.
She giggled saying "Takk Fyrir, Hadrian" with a nod. Once she was dry she added "I tink ve should inform odders about this new development" as she she stood up and offered him a hand
Harry nodded "Yeah and it will be perfect way for you to meet others" with a excited smile on his face as he took her hand but didn't expect that she would pull him that hard. As a result she practically caught him in her arms and their bodies molded into each other. His face was buried between her breasts.
She apologized red-faced when he stepped back "Sorry… forgot my strength…" though had a pleased smile on her face.
He stammered "I… it's ok… ay"
As they both started walking back towards the castle she stepped closer and took his hand in hers both had a smile on their faces. They arrived at the empty classroom on the sixth floor they had decided to meet previous to their chance meeting by the lake.
"Hey loves" he greeted Daphne, Susan, and Fleur but was surprised to see Dora "Dora! When did you arrive?" as they took seats his being between Fleur and Sif.
As soon as he did the metamorph climbed on his lap wit crashing her lips with his, both moaned in satisfaction savoring in each others tastes. He didn't know how much he missed Dora until she was in his arms which where firmly placed on her rump which he kneaded on a instinct.
Dora moaned into the kiss loving the feel of his warm and rough hands on her arse, she moved her hands through his messy hair. The others watched the display with mixed emotions.
Susan and Fleur, smiled at the display having gotten used it during the holiday at Black manor, both them felt aroused and were trying to be discreet as they rubbed the thighs together to get enough friction to get some form of release.
Daphne for her part was shocked at the display of passion for the second time in the day while her cousin looked a little jealous that she couldn't be that forward yet as her sister's wife looked like she was enjoying herself in their man's lap but there was also a speck of the awe as it was her first time seeing a metamorphmagus and stared as Dora's hair settled on the dark red.
As they broke apart panting gulping air with her red dusting on her cheeks, she smirked "Oh, I missed you so much Harry-bear!" as she kept moving her hands on the side of his hair.
"Me too Dora" giving her a light slap on her ass before saying "We can catch up later as I have something important to discuss with everyone"
She pouted saying "Alright lover, but I will hold you up to that" as she pecked him before getting off of his lap and sitting back in her chair. Noticing the Sif she greeted "Ah, so you are the new addition to our… what are we? Harem? Collective?"
Harry turned to Fleur holding her hand saying "How about Family?"
With eyes sparkling the Veela hummed "I zink I love zat idea, Mon Amour" before kissing her man deeply. As it ended she turned to Sif greeting her warmly "Welcome to our family, Sif and Daphne" with the other three sharing the sentiment.
"Thank you for accepting me so graciously, I look forward to my life with all of you in it" Sif replied with a shy smile.
Susan nodded "Us too" before turning to Harry and asking "So what did you want to tell us?"
He sighed and looked at Sif who nodded explaining the situation of her aunt and how she is going to be the part of there family. All of three them seemed to accept it pretty easily much to Harry's relief who added "Along with that we have a bit of a good news! We figured out the clue for the second task"
Fleur was fastest to react as she jumped up in her seat in excitement eyes widened in a excitement asking "Par Magi! 'Ow did you do zat? Every time I open ze damn egg it does nozzing but assault moi ear drums!"
"Well Flower it turns out the answer was water!" he sated with a huge grin on his face.
Daphne gasped "Of course! Mermaids! You can't hear their songs open in the air only under the water!" showing her intelligence which made her Hermione's academic rival.
Susan was still confused and asked "But how did you figure it out?" with Dora nodding as had a similar confusion about the discovery.
Sif chuckled answering "Oh, Hadrian here forgot to reapply shrinking charm on his egg and when took it out to show me, it resized to original size and went tumbling down straight into the lake. We went after it and while under water heard the message, when came back to surface, our dear to be husband revealed that he doesn't know how to swim. I brought him back to the shore. You should have seen him flailing around in the water"
The girls laughed at the mental image making their man blush up a storm which made Dora gush "Aww, don't worry lover we will turn you into a fish in no time if you want, now what did the egg reveal about the second task?"
"Thanks, Dora," he said before explaining "Well it was a message in the form of a poem that goes like this…" he recited the poem.
"So in short, you guys have to go in the lake, stay underwater for an hour which is the time limit and find something that is set up for three of you to find" Susan summarized looking more than a little worried.
He nodded "In short yes" he turned to look at Fleur who looked ash white. He has been reading the books she gave him about veela culture and nature, he understood what it is about. Taking her hand he reassured "Hey, Hey Flower look at me" turned her head with finger under her chin.
Looking in her sapphire eyes he cradled her face with his hand and continued "Listen to me, you will be okay you hear me? Everything is going to be fine. I will be there by your side, we will get through what ever this is together, we will train for it and we will be okay, I promise" he kissed her soothing her anxiety and fear a little bit.
It was deeper than any kiss the couple had shared ever before this it was evident by the tears that came down her face as she enjoyed the warmth and comfort he offered the world outside melting away for a few minutes. When they broke the kiss, she sighed a little overwhelmed "Je vous aime, Mon amour" with a smile on her face as she settled her head on his shoulder.
"Je t'aime aussie, Fleur!" he replied wiping the tears from her face.
Dora gave a determinant nod "Yeah both of you will be fine, starting tomorrow we are going to start swimming training and looking for both of you to survive underwater for an hour"
"I have some ideas already but we will brainstorm them tomorrow", Daphne said with a contemplating look on her face as her brain started working.
Susan smiled "Don't worry Fleur, we got your back" winking at the veela who chuckled in response feeling hopeful once again about the future.
