Actions Speak Louder

“Wow, that was brilliant.”
“Indeed. And...unexpected.”
“...but not unwelcome, right?”
“Had your advances been unwelcome, Potter, you’d not be here.”
“Okay, good. Um, so...was everything all right?”
“My orgasm wasn’t convincing enough for you?”
“Heh. I just wanted to be sure you enjoyed yourself, you know? Because I had a good time. Well a great time really--”
“You’re babbling.”
“Sorry. Just nervous. It’s been quite a day. Your acquittal, then this--”
“Quite a day indeed. So...are you staying?”
“May I?”
“I’ve no objections. Just...less pillow talk, please.”
“What can we do instead?”
“We’ll think of something.”
~
“I told Ron and Hermione today.”
“And?”
“Hermione knew, Ron--”
“Bad?”
“No. By the end of the conversation he was okay. He...heh. He did say he was glad it wasn’t Malfoy.”
“Draco?”
“No, Lucius. Of course Draco!”
“Sarcasm doesn’t suit you. Is there something I should know about your relationship with Draco?”
“I don’t have a relationship with Draco.”
“You work together.”
“We rarely speak.”
“When you do, what do you discuss?”
“Severus! Are you jealous?”
“Certainly not. Now, enough pillow talk. Come here.”
“Planning to make me forget Draco?”
“I’m planning to make you forget your name.”
“Brilliant.”
~
“Minerva knows.”
“Did you tell her?”
“I didn’t have to. Evidently Lovegood told Longbottom during their pillow talk, and he told Hagrid. And we all know how discreet he is.”
“Oops.”
“Indeed.”
“Are you...upset?”
“Why would you think that?”
“Well you do value your privacy--”
“There’s something I value more.”
“Oh? Should I be jealous?”
“Idiot. If you’re not aware of my regard for you by now--”
“You could show me.”
“Come here, then.”
“...mmm, that was brilliant, Severus. And yes, I know how you feel about me. You show me every night, after all.”
“Well I do try.”
~
“Alone. Finally.”
“Indeed. That went well.”
“You sound surprised.”
“Historically, Gryffindor/Slytherin weddings have...problems.”
“Like what?”
“Hexing, typically.”
“Hm. We’ve always been different.”
“Also, I put Calming Draught in the punch.”
“Severus!”
“You expected me to rely on people’s good will?”
“I expected you not to drug anyone!”
“Too late. I didn’t think you’d object to my peacemaking-- Where are you going?”
“To warn Hermione.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. We’re in Tahiti. On our honeymoon. We should be indulging in pillow talk, not Floo talk.”
“But... Is that a grass skirt?”
“Indeed.”
“Mmm. Hermione’s smart, she’ll figure it out.”
“Undoubtedly.”
