Two For One

~

“Charlie?” Harry shook his head. “This is so weird! I’ve been running into all sorts of people today...”

“I haven’t been here in ages,” Charlie said, settling into the chair Draco had just vacated. “But something gave me the urge to stop in for a pint.”

“Great. Can we go now?” Draco asked Neville pointedly.

Neville rolled his eyes. “I suppose so,” he said, and, with a wink and a significant look at Charlie, Neville dragged Draco away.

Harry smiled. Apparently Neville approved of his current prospect. “So what are you doing in the country?” he asked, his eyes lingering on Charlie’s fine form.

Charlie grinned easily. “I’m home visiting Mum and Dad for their anniversary,” was the surprising answer. “We’re all in town this week and Bill wanted me to come by Gringotts. I was on my way there when I got thirsty.”

Harry hesitated and after a moment of wrestling with his conscience, decided to come clean. “Um, I may have had something to do with that,” he confessed. Explaining quickly about the matchmaking Spell, Harry finally said, “So you see, it may be the spell making you do this. Sorry.”

Charlie was still smiling though, and Harry let out a relieved breath. “Oh, I have no problem with a spell pushing me in your direction, Harry,” he murmured, leaning closer. “I’ve always thought you were more than passably attractive.”

Blushing as Charlie took his hand, Harry wondered if the spell had actually worked this quickly.

“So, would you consider going out to dinner with me?”

Harry opened his mouth to reply, but was cut off.

“Oi, what am I, then? Chopped liver? I thought we were having dinner tonight.”

Harry, his hand still clasped in Charlie’s, looked up into soulful brown eyes, Could I be this lucky? he wondered. Two for one...

darn those timezones and my gym morning
Something to look forward to, then ;-)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Awww. *hugs*
I'll do my best to have it up soon, k? *kicks work for interfering with fandom time*

[nefernat.insanejournal.com]

Oh don't worry - I'm whining my ass off regularly about timezones. It often keeps me from talking to people in IM, it seriously hinders me ever taking part in an RPG and I usually miss live threading in posts...

*sigh*

But other than that I'm enjoying the fics!!!! *bright smile*

[kabal42.insanejournal.com]

Oookay, I may be infected by ragdoll here, but, erm, my first thought was Tonks! :-D (Harry/Tonks is a bit of a het-thing of mine ;-) )

But yay! I hadn't thought of Charlie and it's great you brought him in!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Maybe you have been hanging out with her too much. ;)
Actually, I'm not that good at writing Tonks, so you can safely exclude her from the list of potentials. Hee!
And yes, Charlie is yummy and needed to be included.
Thanks!

[firefly124.insanejournal.com]

Yay, Charlie! And ... oops, for the double booking!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

LOL. It may be a good thing, you never know. ;)
Thanks, my dear!

[sweetmelodykiss.insanejournal.com]

Two for one is always good! Lol, Lovely!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Depending on who's involved, that's true. *g*
Thanks, hon!

[suntzu_s.insanejournal.com]

I don't blame Harry at all..Charlie isn't someone you'd kick out of bed turn down!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Mm, we certainly agree on that. We'll have to see how Harry feels about it, though. ;)

[cblue9.insanejournal.com]

Finally someone Harry actualy likes!*grin*
A dragon tamer *Yay* and a ex-Quiditch captain perhaps? I'm all for threesomes! 8D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hehehehe. Your guesses are always entertaining. *g*

[angela_snape.insanejournal.com]

I love Charlie! I don't care who the new one is ... I'm voting for Harry/Charlie!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

We'll see what happens. My muse has agreed to let Harry have the ultimate vote, so we'll see what his opinion is. *g*
Thanks, hon!

[witchdragon.insanejournal.com]

OMG- who who??? Please not Ron- doesn't he have blue eyes?
*swoons from excitment*

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hahaha. Ron does have blue eyes. ;)
*revives you*
Hang in there, sweetie! There's more to come (barring weather emergencies).

[erikdesoir.insanejournal.com]

*does a dance* It's George, I just know it! OR BILLomg *falls down in ecstacy* OR HAGRID!!! *dies a little laughing*

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hahahahaha! You really are stuck on this Hagrid kick, aren't you? :P
Poor Harry. Hee!

[gin_tonic.insanejournal.com]

Mhmmm Charlie! Is the new one Bill? Ooooh, I get nice threesome images in my head! *licks lips* :D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hee! Stay tuned. The next one should be up in a couple of hours. :)

[entrenous88.insanejournal.com]

*tries to puzzle through soulful brown eyes plus the "Oi"*

Also, yuuummmm, Charlie!

I was going to try to write Charlie into a drabble later, because it's supposed to be his birthday today, according to JKR's website. So it was fun to see him here!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

I'm glad I included him, then, especially since it's his BD! Yay!
Thanks so much. :)

[fleurdeliser.insanejournal.com]

*giggles madly*

Cheeky.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hee! I do try. *g*
Thanks, Nessi! :)

[sassy_cissa.insanejournal.com]

Which Weasley is behind the door?

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Mmm, one of the sexy ones. ;)
You'll see in a sec! *g*

[lesyeuxverts.insanejournal.com]

hehehe, who's the second? I like Charlie, I may forgive you for the lack of Snape. So long as there is Charlie, and there is more Snape in other fics. :D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Hehehe. So I've tested your Snape loyalty by dangling Charlie? *g* Interesting to know...
