Who: Alfie and Julien
What: Late Valentine's Day
Where: Their classroom
When: A few days ago
Rating/Warning: TBA, slashy

He was worried that Julien had been avoiding him - hiding in the library, trying not to see him. He knew it was stupid, if he was avoiding him then he was, and there was nothing Alfie could do about it. It made him upset, though, hurt in a way he wasn't sure he really understood, since he'd never felt it before. But he also knew that there was shite going on with Jules' family, and maybe it was just that he needed some time alone?

Alfie wasn't sure, but he knew that he wanted to see him. So he ended up swallowing his own worries and sending him a note to meet in their room, then he went straight there, waiting.

	"Happy Valentine's..." Alfie echoed, and it was a little late, but it was nice to be able to say it. He wanted to touch him, and a second later he decided to fuck it and gave in, reaching for Julien and tugging him closer. "Hi." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Julien's smile was slight and tentative when Alfie repeated the words back to him, but it changed into a full fledged smile as Alfie tugged him closer, the Ravenclaw eagerly coming near and holding Alfie back gently, taking his time to savor feeling connected again. "Hi you." he said back, the smile flickering into a shy grin. "I've missed you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, you too," Alfie smiled back, glad that Julien was smiling, and wrapped an arm around his back to pull him in closer. Just feeling him solid and there did a lot to banish the thoughts and insecurities he'd been having. "You okay?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Willingly coming closer, Julien turned his head so that he could nuzzle in under Alfie's chin, breathing him in and feeling that same weird sense of satisfied stillness that he usually found so elusive; he couldn't lift his head once it was rested there.

"Yeah." he said with a heavy sigh, sounding tired. "I am really. Things are..." he didn't end the sentence, wasn't sure how. "How are you?" he murmured the question, his hand rubbing up and down the small of Alfie's back gently.

	"Bored, mostly, most of the time." Alfie sighed, but he sounded far more content than he'd felt in weeks, with Julien's head nestled there and tucked in beneath his. "I missed you, you know?" He was sure that wasn't something blokes were supposed to admit, but still. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Julien made a soft thoughtful 'hmmm' sound at the boredom, feeling guilty for leaving Alfie on his own, so to speak, but he smiled at the confession and risked lifting his head to brush a kiss against Alfie's jawline. "I know." he said with a smile. "I missed you back. And I'm sorry about the anonymous owl. I wasn't sure if anyone else would see... you know." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alfie hadn't even thought of it like that, which worried him suddenly. Wasn't he terrified of people finding out? The answer came just as easy, though - not really. He shrugged, "I guess I didn't think about it? You don't have to ... you know, be afraid to owl me, or something." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Julien stood back from the semi-cuddle but slid his arms to Alfie's hands, holding them in his own between them. He shrugged back, looking somewhere at Alfie's chest. "I'm not, I mean, I'm not afraid just, I don't want to put you in a position where you have to lie or say something you don't want to." he said, awkward. He really didn't care who knew about them as long as there was a them to know about, but Alfie felt differently and Julien would do what he could to make sure Alfie was always comfortable with them.

Alfie didn't know why he cared, really. He wanted to protect it, maybe? And protect himself, because if Goyle's blackmail had taught him anything it was that there would be some people queued up to give them a beating, no matter how nice his friends were about it.

He squeezed Julien tighter though, and didn't say any of that. "Well, it was sweet anyway, getting something from an admirer and whatall."

	Julien grinned, cuddling back in and laughing a little. "Admirer? I don't know, idoliser maybe. Idoliser? Is that a word? Well, it is now, and who better to use it on." He'd missed this, actually talking to someone and not feeling like he wanted to stave his head in with the corner of a wall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Idoliser?" Alfie rolled his eyes, "It's not as big as all that, is it?" Except, for him, it felt like it was - except for Julien, instead. Like the days they hadn't talked just ate at him. After a minute more just holding him there, Alfie let him go in favor of taking his hand and pulling him over toward the couch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"No, it's bigger." Julien commented with a cheeky smile, pouting a little bit when Alfie pulled away but letting it slip away as he realised he was just being tugged closer to the couch. "Why young master Cattermole, I do believe you are attempting to entice me, an unescorted young boy, to sit with you on this seat of fadedness." he exclaimed, affecting a posh voice and trying not to snerk.

	Alfie had no idea what he was doing, but he laughed and didn't even try - his voice couldn't even do that posh bit of things. "Seat of fadedness?" he laughed again, "Like you don't really want to..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Julien laughed at hearing Alfie amused and restrained himself enough to raise an eyebrow at the Hufflepuff. "How very dare you say such things of an innocent young boy such as I!" he exclaimed before nudging Alfie until the boy fell down onto the sofa and straddling his lap, leaning in against Alfie's chest. "You're lucky you're right." he murmured with a grin, reaching up to pet the ends of Alfie's hair and eskimo kissing Alfie's chin.
