When: Today

He'd meant to go back to the shop last night, but he'd gotten caught talking to Viktor Krum and then hadn't made it before the shop was closed. George was a soldier about working for him while he helped Lee with shite, but he'd been taking advantage of it and so he sent George off to help Lee today and instead he stayed at the shop, working with Verity. About lunchtime, though, he came up behind her in the stock room, an arm sliding around her waist from behind.

He didn't want her to think he'd been avoiding her since they'd shagged.

"I locked up the shop for lunch," he admitted, against the back of her ear. "Want to see the blueprints for your new shop? Up in the flat?" And then shag again, a few times, before coming back and unlocking? A bloke could always hope.

Although Verity would never admit it out loud and barely to herself, there was a rush of relief that coursed through her body as Fred pressed against her. She'd scarcely seen him since she'd thrown herself at him in his flat and while it had been an experience she wanted to repeat again and again, she'd been beginning to regret it, afraid that it had scared him away.

"These blueprints," she started, continuing to arrange the shelf she'd been organising. Though her tone was nonchalant, she pressed back against him and tried to resist the urge to jump him right there. "Are they by any chance secreted away somewhere naughty?"

	"Give me a few minutes before you come up and they could be," Fred answered, laughing. "But right now they're on the kitchen table. Probably best to leave them there, though, they're pretty big. Would be uncomfortable if I really put them anywhere too sexy." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pressing back against him, Verity grinned to herself, placing the last few items on the shelf. "Are those blueprints in your pocket," she asked, turning around in his arms and pressing a kiss to his lips. "Or are you just happy to see me?" She grinned wickedly, having successfully amused herself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, that's definitely just being happy to see you," Fred answered, and he let her turn easily enough, looking at her for a minute before he kissed her too, quickly, then pulled away, eyebrows cocked. "Come on, come see your shop. See if you want to shag me or hex me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Slipping away from him, Verity started out of the stock room, hoping he hadn't seen her wide grin. She desperately tried to play it cool around Fred, but it was so difficult, she liked him so much. "I think you'll find," she said, over her shoulder as she started up the steps towards his flat. "That I generally want to do both most of the time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"So you're saying I need to distract you with the one so that you don't get to the other?" Fred locked up the storeroom behind her, then started to follow up the stars. "Because one way around, that works, but the other way around isn't nearly as much fun." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Giving her hips a little wiggle, Verity hopped onto the landing and turned around towards Fred. "That is an excellent summation. I'll give you a hint which way I prefer it." She lowered her voice and pulled a straight, serious face. "I'd rather shag you than hex you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	weasleyforge 2009-11-25 03:07 am UTC (link)
	Fred pretended to be very interested in her answer, and then looked jokingly relieved when she finally gave it, wiping his brow and then winking at her, stepping up toward her on the landing. "That's good. I think I prefer shagging myself rather than hexing myself, too. I'm very shaggable. I'm also very hexable, but it tends to burn." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"If all I was interested in was you being hexed," she reached out and grabbed his belt, tugging him towards her and pressing up against him. "I'd have let you remain with your true love." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well, George doesn't really hex me all that often...." Fred mused, but he did turn and lean his back against his door, letting Verity push up against him and sliding his arms around waist, tugging her in against him. She always reached for his belt first- that was a really, really bloody good sign. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Shaking her head, Verity looked up at him with a mock pitying expression. "Not George," she corrected, ghosting her fingers along the zipper of his pants. "Your love, the hag." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	weasleyforge 2009-11-25 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh, her." Fred shrugged, bumping his head against hers but batting her hand away with a snort. "Well, I don't know if I can be a one-woman man, you know. One species, even. Are hags a different species? And you stop that, or you'll never see those plans." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Making a show of pulling her hands away from him and holding them in the air, Verity gestured towards his flat with her chin and heaved a melodramatic sigh. "Show me these plans," she commanded, keeping her hands above her head. "And they better be absolutely brilliant." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He laughed easily and then reached up to catch one of her hands, bringing it down behind her back to pin it for a second, but then just holding it in his as he unlocked the door and went inside.

He let go of her then, telling her to have a seat but the disappearing into the kitchen to get the blueprints they'd been working on. "Clear off that coffeetable, would you?" He called back to her. "Want something to drink?"

Her heart skipped a beat as Fred held her hand for a moment, but she managed not to squeak or do anything else ridiculous. She settled on the couch and rolled her eyes, clearing the table. "Clean this, organise that," she called back. "Merlin, the amount you boss me around you'd think you paid me or something."

Coffee table clean, she settled back, wiggling until she got comfortable, then answered his question. "Just water's fine."

	"Guess I could stop paying you and stop bossing you around," Fred called back, and a moment later he was back out, sitting down beside her and unrolling the large parchment onto the coffeetable. He used a quick charm to keep it unfurled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Verity shook her head. "No... that won't work for me," she tapped her chin with her finger and considered for a moment. "How about... you stop bossing me around, but keep paying me?" She flashed Fred a mock hopeful grin as he came back into the room and slid forward on the couch, looking at the blueprints in front of her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"You'd rather be bossing me about, wouldn't you?" He asked, wagging his eyebrows at her. "Next time we shag you're going to get out a whip and black leather bits, aren't you?"

He pointed to the area where the register would be, and then shrugged. "It's to scale, you see. The storeroom there will be bigger, we're using a lot of the old shop and just redecorating. There's a flat above, but we've got some plans for that. If you're getting that cottage you wanted?"
