Playing Games

“The Burrow on New Year’s Eve,” murmured Severus as they approached. “Salazar help me.”

“Behave,” Harry said. “It’ll be fun. Traditionally, they play games.”

“Charming,” Severus replied as the door opened. “Molly.”

“Happy New Year!” Molly cried, accepting the bottle of mead he offered her.

After obligatory hugs, they were ushered into the living room where various Weasleys were playing assorted games. Severus settled in to watch. When Harry handed him a brandy, he hummed.

“Having fun?” Harry asked.

“Quite.” Severus smirked. “We could play our own intimate games at home, you realise?”

Harry grinned. “Something tells me we will.”

Despite Severus' hints about leaving early, Harry insisted they stay until the new year arrived. “It’s not a New Year’s Eve celebration unless we kiss at midnight,” he insisted. “It’s tradition.”

Not Severus’, but he let that slide. Plus, watching drunk Weasleys was moderately amusing.

Just before midnight, Severus positioned himself close to Harry in case anyone got ideas, and as the clock struck, he drew Harry close, treating him to a slow, deep kiss.

“Wow,” Harry sighed, sagging in Severus’ arms. “That was some kiss.”

Severus smirked. “Wait until you see where I kiss you when we get home.”

this was lovely, and brought back memories of a new year's party 23 years ago...

i was 3 months pregnant and was not drinking because of it. we went to a friend's house and planned on spending the night, all kinds of safety!

...and i got to watch the amusing drunks trying to play taboo. it was amazingly fun! plus, i got to tell people how SILLY they acted all night long. which was doubly amusing to me. :D

thank you so much, i really liked this one!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
And that sounds like quite a party. *g*

Hmm, where might he kiss him, I wonder? On the doorstep? In the kitchen? Or - gasp - on the street? (Sorry for being silly :P)

Thank you for sharing! ^^

[alisanne]

Haha! You know, I imagine he's kissed him in those places, too. *g*
But for the kisses he has in mind now, a bed might be best. ;)
Thank you!

“Wait until you see where I kiss you when we get home.” LOL. Best last line, ever. :D
