WHO: Daphne and Harry
WHERE: HOME
WHEN: Middledayish
RATING: TBD
STATUS: complete/closed

It was nice to finally get things underway with the move. Sure, they had picked a Friday to do it, but it was also a better plan to have a three day weekend and using it to get things moved than try to fit it all into two days. Plus, with as much stuff as Daphne had, it would take her two out of three days just to unpack it, probably more to put everything up. She really needed to downsize, but the truth was, she didn't want to. Out side she heard the yipping bark of Quibbler and rolled her eyes as she plopped down onto the sofa. The whole drawing room was a mess, everything was surrounded by boxes and bags and shelves and things hovered for a lack of places to be set. It was a bloody mess.

Daphne felt buried as she sprawled out on the couch for a moment to rest. She had a glass of iced tea some place, though she couldn't remember where. There was a flutter of wings and she peered over at the owl sitting on top of a book case. Early birthday present/late wedding gift for Harry. She didn't know if he had one or not, but she figured they could make due with one eventually. It sat on top of the book case and blinked pridefully at Daphne. She had purchased it in an excursion earlier in the day and had to hide it from Harry. Now was as good as a time as any to reveal the gift, though she actually didn't have the slightest idea to where he was. No worries, he was probably surrounded by a sea of nothing just as she was. And the unfortunate part was that she hadn't even made it to her bedroom to put things away. Idly, she hoped her closets would be big enough.

Sighing, she shut her eyes and yawned. It was only noon and she was exhausted. Luckily they had magic to do all the real work.

It was unusually hard to hold in a laugh, but she did her best, ignoring him playfully, her nose up in the air in the snottiest way possible as she continued pretending he wasn't even there. When he spoke, she said nothing in return, in fact, she didn't even acknowledge him.

Feeling him move on the couch, she watched him from the corner of her eye, grinning slightly as he moved behind her. She turned her head further away from him to hid her smirk, though it probably wasn't a job well done. Instead, she just wiggled in his arms slightly, doing her best to turn around and face him, a coy smirk on her face, though her lips pursed as she refused to speak.

Harry grinned, but loosened his arm to allow her to turn around with as much ease as their current positions would allow. When she was turned around completely, he let his arms settle back around her.

"Well," he started, pretending to take a moment to think about it, before grinning. "I've always been in the city which would lead one to believe that I like the chaos. I really don't think peace and quiet is my thing. I'd much prefer the chaos, so by all means, make as much noise as you like."

She stared at him, hands resting against his chest gently as they laid comfortably, or awkwardly, in their current positions. Her face softened, though she still held a smirk. He definitely just egged her on a bit. She wanted to scream as loud as she could right in his face, but she knew that just wouldn't be appropriate.

Tapping her fingers against his chest lightly, she thought of the next alternative. Yelling could work. A malicious grin was given and Daphne opened her mouth, tilted her head back and let out a vicious shout that had no specific need. When she was done, she looked back at him and smiled sweetly.

In all honesty he should have expected something and he did....though not until that malicious grin slid across her face and by that point it was really too late to prevent it. Okay...so perhaps saying as loud as you like had been a bad thing. Should have specified the octave below eardrum splitting.

When she'd finished, he shook his head. "There, you see," he responded, returning the sweet smile. "You can be loud enough for the both of us."

He figured he might not get away with that comment, but he made sure to lock his arm into place around her so she couldn't escape him and his teasing, though he wasn't going to continue in such a manner for much longer. You definitely had to know when enough was enough.

Again, Daphne gasped and instead of smacking him this time, she kneed him, though gently to prevent the loss of any specific organs in that general vicinity. "Git," she mumbled, laughing as she rested her forehead against his.

Another grin spread across her face and she kissed him gently. Now she was just going to be dirty. "You have no idea how loud I can be," she whispered, kissing him again, though this time biting his lower lip gently. She wouldn't push this, it was just fun at the time and now it was pretty much done with. He could think whatever he wanted to think.

Upon feeling her legs shift, he immediately felt a brief sense of panic. A panic that he was sure, at some point in their lives, all guys felt. The panic disappeared when the pain didn't follow. Well, that was just playing dirty.

His plan to prevent anything of the sort from happening was waylaid when she kissed him. Now you couldn't say Harry wasn't intelligent, but you could certainly say he had a full year pass to oblivious. Being distracted by Daphne's lips, her words didn't exactly penetrate into his conscious as easily and successfully as one would have liked.

"Yeah, I know." he responded with a smile, only when she had released his lower lip. "My ears are still ringing."

Daphne snorted as he spoke and tried not to make it too obvious. "Just wait, Harry," she said with a short laugh, kissing him again. He'll figure it out eventually. She had the slight feeling it'd dawn on him at the least appropriate time, but it didn't matter. The fact that he didn't get it just made her laugh some more.

She had a small sense of pride right then, stumping the great Harry Potter and also knowing that her couch was big enough for two bodies. That was honestly something that was good to know. At least in her eyes.

Her comment and laugh immediately sent warning bells off. He'd obviously missed something...unless this meant she was going to shout again...hopefully, that wasn't what she meant. Taking a moment to replay the conversation, her meaning ended up all but hitting him in the face. oh..

His focused back on her and he could feel the heat rise up his neck and his ears turn red. "That wasn't what I meant." he responded, as naturally as one could when they were blushing, which quite clearly wasn't at all easy. He really didn't know what to think about that particular topic.

Still, all Daphne could do was laugh. He was just so cute and she couldn't help it. She shrugged before grinning and kissing him on the tip of the nose. Now it was just time to lay there and do whatever. No more shouting or making fun or one another. She knew they'd have to get unpacking soon, but it still wasn't about to happen anyway.

"I know," she said softly, giving another quiet laugh. She felt a little bad making him blush like that, but it was just so darling in her opinion.

There were times Harry wished he really wasn't so much of a dork...the current moment was certainly one of those times, which only made the flush deepen upon realizing it. Of course she knew, he was the oblivious one. He always said he'd know the next time and every time, it always seemed to catch him off guard.

"That wasn't fair," he groaned, hiding his face in her shoulder and letting his free arm snake around her to join the other. He wasn't mad or embarrassed really. He didn't know what the big deal was talking about it, but he could never get rid of the blush when he did. George and Lee knew that well enough and proceeded to test it out whenever they had the chance. It was just one of those things that he had no control over.

Idly, she ran her fingers through his hair as he hid his face in her shoulder, kissing the top of his head gently. She cared very little about what he meant, she was only teasing and they both new that. A small smile stayed present on her face as she held him close in return to him putting his other arm around her.

"I know," she said coyly, though left it at that. They had their obvious differences in this situation, but Daphne didn't care about that at all. She just cared about him and letting him feel as comfortable as possible with her around.
