“oh, i’m not here beause i’m l,” potter said, hastily. “nor do i think you are.”
somehow, drao didn’t believe him. but he said nothier ontinued.
“it just suks sometimes, you kuk between being arouhe time aheir shit over me. there’s not very muh iween.”
“so…” drao deliberately left the rest of the sentene hangiter seemed to pik up on that.
“so, you’ve always treated me…well, i’d like to say like a that’s rue, is it? but you ed me like something i ouldo and you never walked on eggshells arouher. i like that.”
drao stared at him. while potter had talked, two offee ups had floated ihehemselves in front of him and potter. drao quikly put toons of sugar in his, thinking hard while he piked it up airring.
“are you saying you liked that i was treating you like shit?” he narrowed his eyes. “is that some kind of weird kink?”
potter made a sound that was somethiween hoking and ughing. “i don’t have a weird kink,” he said, and then added under his breath, “at least, that’s hem.”
drao felt a prikle on the bak of his nek whih he tried very hard to ignore. slowly, he took a deep breath, hoping potter would exatly are you saying, then?”
“i guess i’m saying…i feel like i doend with you. you know, i…an just…be me.”
drao almost dropped his up. it seemed he had just lost ontrol over his bodily funtioed wateriared at potter without blinking, beause he ouldn’t move a siied how the now slightly blurry, bk haired figure in front of him started fidgeting again. drao would have savoured it, if he wasn’t feeling so utterly ruffled.
otter had just said…it was the biggest ompliment he had ever bee of. no, atually, it was. still, drao wasirely sure how potter had meant it. surely, dra far too muh into it. this iion with potter was making it unneessarily hard to distiual spoken words aly wao hear.
he suddenly realised he eted to give some sort of answer or omment. but he had o say.
&. meanwhile, i feel like i’m going to hurl whenever you’re anywhere near me as to jump out of my hest and into yours, but don’t mind me. you keep being yourself.’
&ely tried to keep a straight fae, slowly liftio his lips. whatever he was going to say o divert potter, but also himself if he was being ho, from the thuorm that was raging inside of him.
“so you didn’t py dumb, is what y me,” he drawled. “y your true, imbeile self.”
potter bli him like a barn owl. “what?”
drao fored himself to smirk. “exatly. but it’s alright, we’ll just add ‘ompassio list of outstanding traits.”
potter blinked some more, before he rolled his eyes and his lips strethed into a lopsided smile. “clearly, you haven’t l modesty,” he snorted.
& sazar, drao had made him smile. this was not helpi down the up, his hands slightly shaking, aberries into his mouth. he peeked over at potter’s pte and frowned. why had he bothered t breakfast if he wasn’t goihing?
“why areing?” he asked. “surely, you haven’t brought all this just for me?”
“oh.” potter bit his lip and suddenly looked…weird. almost inseure.
“go on,” drao said, leaning forward and nudgio him. potter’s eyes immediately darted…where? oh. drao leared his thred his dressing gown, his exposed olrbone. “y me nervous, sitti eating anythi least half of that serue.
potter slowly nodded ahe table fgs. drao notied how uhusiasti he looked, apparently lost in thought. he e that potter eeking right bak at him and quikly turention to his own pte.
“you just admitted i make you nervous,” potter said, and drao ould pratially hear his grin.
& his tongue, hopi blushing. if only potter knew. “i’ll also admit y me a headahe. you seem to be ay about ausiions.”
“feeling nervous isn’t always bad.”
before drao ould stop himself, his eyes darted up to potter’s. for oi, drao thought he saw somethihing that made him inhale sharply.
“speaking of your outstanding traits,” potter said, his v with sarasm. “it olite, the way you ran off st night.”
“i did not run off,” drao said defensively.
&her way, i thought it was a shame you didn’t stay longer.”
drao ould feel suspiious. this felt like a trap. but he ouldn’t see where poing with this, yet; he ohe goal was to embarrass him. and post- ok-gate-drao really for any more embarrassment.
&alking about st night,” he said, already feelio his heeks.
“rex, drao,” potter hukled. “i know you didn’t touh me up iionally.”
& was true. still, drao felt like he was hiding a dirty little seret. whih, tehnially, he was.
“good, as long as we’re lear on that,” he said, grabbing more raspberries. “i would ouh you iiohough drao had always take pride in bei liar, he wasn’t sure if his fae was betraying him just then. judging from potter’s look, at least, something wasn’t rig
