It Was All Right - Harry/Ron

[icarus]

Another drabble request, this is number seven of twenty (yes, they're going up -- people keep adding more) for ragnhildholm, Harry/Ron. This is my first attempt at a post OotP fic.


It Was All Right
by Icarus



The sun slowly settled beyond the outline of the Forbidden Forest. Harry leaned both elbows on Ron's shoulders and stared off into the distance, not really seeing the sunset, magnificent though it was. Ron shifted uncomfortably.

"You're getting heavy."

Harry leaned a little harder, wrinkling his nose in an impish grin.

"Harry..." Ron complained, "you're such a dick sometimes."

He relented, and nuzzled into Ron's hair and hummed in his ear, slightly off-key:

"Weasley is my king,
he can do most anything,
that's why Gryffindors all sing -
- Weasley is my king..."

Ron glowed, his chin dropped in embarrassment. "You're a dreadful singer, Harry. I think I hear Fang howling. No - wait - he's gone deaf."

Harry cuffed him, laughing. But he didn't draw away.

Ron eyed him cautiously, up and down, for a pregnant moment. If anyone caught them even sitting like this it was a good bet they'd hear about it. But there was an undefinable line they usually didn't cross. Usually. Just friends.

Still, lately Harry had taken to staring off in the distance, then becoming suddenly present and doing things... well. It was crazy. It was also hard to say no, who could say why? Because he was Harry Potter? Because he was his friend?

Warm arms slid around Ron's waist, causing Ron's pulse to race, and then Harry rested his chin on his shoulder. A puff of a sigh breathed across Ron's cheek.

It was all right.

God, your Harry/Ron is soooooo right. You're a sixteen-year old boy in love with another boy, aren't you, Icarus? Admit it. Damn, you do this perfectly.

*smiles slowly.* I really had you guys going there for a minute, thinking I was a girl and all that.

And you still do. I have no idea what to believe, anymore. What does it matter, of course? ^_^

What it matters is that some of us like girls, and I've had Icarus on my 'to-do' list for a while. *sigh* But if she's a boy...

And you've been on mine ever since I discovered your site. (;

...I suddenly realize how terribly stalker-ish that sounds coming from someone you don't know...

You know, sometimes these comments emailed -- well, they lose the context entirely. I had to go back in and check. Ah...

Send switchknife a photo. She will let you know if you'll go on her 'approved stalker' list. A suggestive one is recommended. ;)
