Where: Susan's flat

When: Friday 5th September, 7pm

Rating: SFW

To say that Susan had had an interesting day was perhaps one of the greatest understatements since 'Hey, if we point sticks at one another our magic is scarier!' Her day had been equal parts annoying, awesome, and confusing, and the prospect of having her friends around for dinner had been one of the things that had kept her powering through her sleep deprived state. The brandy and wine at Rose's had helped too. Still, she had just enough time after seeing Rose to rush to the supermarket and buy panic buy enough products to feed a Quidditch match.

Two hours later: her kitchen smelled amazing, and she'd managed enough just enough downtime to slip into a cute little dress. She was just vaguely wondering where all the people were when the doorbell rang, and the first of her guests arrived.

"Yeah, it just 'happens', like the rain and lunar eclipses. If you two keep shagging, it's because something's pulling you together. You can't stay away from each other," Ernie said, only partially teasing. His own romantic nature was churning into overdrive with sudden vision of Seamus and Justin living a happy ever after.

He slid his arm over Justin's shoulders and shook his head mock-sadly. "Well, we both know I'm too much man for you, so it's for the best. But honestly, mate, I'm happy you're getting a little something. After how hard you work, you deserve something to help destress afterward. So... when will you see him again?"

Justin let go of Ernie's comment about being too much of a man for him. "You are quite a romantic, Ernie." He told his friend with a small laugh. "But it's not quite what this is, you know. It's just.." He sighed and looked at his friend. Sometimes, Justin didn't even understand himself. Why couldn't he just go to a bar and pick someone at random for the night? It sure would be easier than waiting to get his schedule and Seamus' to match up.

"I trust him, just as much as I trust you. Well, physically I mean. And.. and I'm not afraid of falling asleep with him in case.." He didn't like the idea of scaring someone to death because of a nightmare. It wasn't nearly as bad as it had been back when he was released though, but there were still there. And Justin could get scary when they happened.

"Actually, at first the plan was to see each other Sunday. But things just happened and we couldn't wait. And I had two ales and you weren't there. He obviously had to take me home."

Ernie softened when Justin talked about trusting Seamus enough to sleep next to him. There were times when Justin even showed up at Ernie's in the middle of the night, having been woken up by nightmares, and Ernie understood just how important that trust was for him. He hugged Justin close, their foreheads touching as Ernie lent him strength that he had in droves.

His grin returned, though, as Justin spoke further. "Of course, someone had to take you home and tuck you into bed. We're lucky to have Seamus as a friend, aren't we. Though how come he's never tucked me in at night?" He chuckled. "All right, whatever you say it is, that's what it is, but you can't blame me for thinking something else when I see you looking happy like you look tonight." And a part of Ernie wanted Justin to find someone if only to live vicariously through him - he'd always wanted to fall in love, it just hadn't happened yet.

Justin smiled as Ernie hugged him. But the expression on his face, Justin knew that his friend understood exactly what he had meant about trusting Seamus. "I don't know, you'd have to ask him." He replied with a smile.

"I look happy because I'm all relaxed and I slept really well." He had bee so spent that it seriously was no wonder that no bad dream had been able to creep in. "It just seems so easy, you know. Flirting with him and then.. everything else. It's not eve awkward between us. Ever." He worked on keeping his voice down still, smiling all along.

"I just might have to do that." He wouldn't, though. If Seamus was making Justin this happy, Ernie wasn't going to intrude on that in any way, shape, or form.

Ernie shook his head in a happily frustrated gesture, then moved to kiss Justin's temple. "It sounds absolutely brilliant. Isn't that how it's supposed to be? Easy and never awkward?" Not that Ernie knew anything about it other than daydreams and romance novels. Oh, he'd had boyfriends before and everything that came with them, but while they'd been fun, there hadn't been that soulmate feeling that he'd always dreamed of. "Don't listen to me, you just take it as you need it. Sometimes it takes time, and you have all the time in the world to shag on Sundays... or whatever day of the week you like."

He grinned and finally let go of Justin. "So, aside from getting well-shagged, how was your week? Are you ready to come work at mine next week?"

Justin chuckled. "How would I know. None of this ever happened to me before. He's my first and, you know.." He looked around, not wanting this bit of info to be heard. "The only one actually." There hadn't been much time before the war took of, then he was studying to get better at fighting, then he was in jail and once he was out he was too traumatized to let anyone touch him.

"My week was terribly full and I managed to get Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. I was given the evening shifts in yours though."

"I know," Ernie replied with a solemn nod. "I'm just happy for you, is all. Anyone who can put a smile on this face is worthy of you." Because if he wasn't, then Ernie would step in and kick the bloke's arse, friend or not. Nobody messed with his closest mates.

"You're lucky, I'm working Sunday through Thursday, mid-day shifts, so we'll have a couple of hours overlap I think. If you're doing the usual schedule, you'll be taking your first break when I get off shift, so maybe we can have dinner then?"

	He chuckled and bit his lower lip. "I have a feeling I'm going to like next week." He said. "Yeah, we can have dinner at that moment, that sounds perfect actually." He didn't know what kind of week it would be, but it certainly sounded more relaxed than emergency. A nice change of pace. (Reply to this) (Parent)
