Title: Let Me Get What I Want Author: celandineb Fandom: HP Pairing: Harry/Severus Rating: general Length: 100 words Warnings: schmoop Summary: Harry wants Severus. [Don't we all?] Note: For alisanne, who wanted Severus/Harry, "please". The title and quoted lyrics (which are slightly elided from the original song) are from "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want" by The Smiths.
The snatch of music caught Harry's attention as he hurried along the street.
Please, please, please... let me get what I want. Lord knows, it would be the first time.
Harry patted his pocket, feeling for the tiny box there.
Severus was already at the restaurant, looking sour, his usual cover for discomfort. Once the waiter had taken their orders and disappeared, Harry placed the box into Severus's palm where it sprang open.
Candlelight glinted off gold inside. Severus stared motionlessly for several moments before he let his eyes meet Harry's.
