A few things in Diagon Alley || B/Greg

"I think it already has." he said chuckling. "Ice cream can’t stand up to serious conversations. It melts under pressure." He didn’t care about the ice cream, he didn’t care about anything but the woman in his lap. "I love you." he said totally out of the blue. it just popped into his head and he had to tell her.

B smiled brightly, biting her lip a bit from the inside. "I love you," she softly whispered, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him closer to her, pressing her lips back to his. She was happy. He made her happy, and thta;s all she needed.

"As you do to me." he said against her lips. He couldn’t believe how mushy she made him, but he couldn’t see being another way. He loved her. So much.

She kissed him before pulling back again and looking at her, shaking her head and laughing slightly. "Our ice cream is going to melt."

"They aren’t worth the waisted emotions dearest." Greg said. The nickname he had once used as sarcastic now held so much more meaning. "Let them go, they mean nothing."

"No, you're right." She smiled, nodding her head and running her fingers through her hair. "You do though. You mean the world to me." She leaned in an pressed her lips back to his again.

"You don’t need to, dearest. They don’t matter." No one mattered but her, not really. His friends mattered, Duncan, Natalie, Geoff, Aidan, V. But B, she was more than anything, above all of them.

"I know," she smiled, running her fingers over his chin gently. "I just hate them and want nothing to do with any of them anymore." She really meant that. If she coul walk away from her parents, she could shut anyone else in the world out. It wasn't that much to ask of her. Didn't even need to be asked.

"You have nothing to make up for, B. You don’t need to pity me, I didn’t tell you that so you would." He wasn’t mad, but he didn’t need pity either.

"I'm not pitying you." She shook her head. "Honestly, I would love to burn all of the rotten elitists." Having grown up with them, slight things had always annoyed her, but nothing had ever pissed her off as she was now.

Greg’s hand slid up her back and threaded through her hair, pulling her in tighter to the kiss. She had never made him feel inferior, she always took what he said and listened, she heard what he said, argued her facts and conceded when she knew he was right. She had never once made him feel like she was better than him, which was more than likely the reason he had let himself fall in love with her.

B let her tongue move into his mouth and she held him tightly in his arms. She loved him so much, she really did. Pulling back slowly, she softly caressed his face. "I know I can't make up for everything that elitists have ever done to you, but I promise you, I will never treat you like that. You're way too important to me."

"I don’t hit on pureblood elitists." He wasn’t trying to be mean, but given his back ground, she would understand what he was saying. "I don’t like making myself feel lower than other people, but all the purebloods i’ve ever been with have made it feel like they were doing me a favor, when really, it wasn’t a favor I needed nor wanted, so…" he shrugged. He wasn’t lower than the purebloods, he knew that and he didn’t let them make him feel like it, but a few had succeeded.

B abandoned her ice cream and walked around the table to sit on his lap sideways. She wrapped her arms around him and pressed her lips softly to his. She didn't say anything. She couldn't apologize for anything anyone else had ever done to him, but she loved him and she never wanted anyone to make him feel like he was less than who he was, and who he was was the most important person in the world to her. She wanted them all to burn for how they'd made him feel.

"Bull shit you don’t know. I don’t mind that you thought that I was, I have after all been with more than a few guys, but I really want to know why you thought that I wasn’t interesting in woman." He had told her at the hockey game that he would have fun with both the man and the woman, though he had picked the guy over the woman in one on one. Maybe that was why.

B swallowed her bite of ice cream. She felt like a dolt for admitting this, but she had no reason to keep anything from him, even if it made her look conceited and full of herself. "Because you never made one single pass at me. You're like the only person I've ever known who didn't."

Greg cocked an eyebrow, “I have, yes. Why were you so convinced that I was gay?” He never hid his sexuality, but he didn’t really understand why she was convinced that he was gay.

B felt the heat of blush fill her cheeks and she instantly shoved the spoonful of ice cream in her mouth. "Idnknw," she muttered with a closed mouth, shrugging her shoulders. It was so vain of her, her reason. She almost felt silly about it.

"We aren’t that bad together." Greg said with a laugh. They probably could be, but they didn’t get into fights like he did with others. She didn’t piss him off or raise his walls like some of the other people in his life. "But we will be awesome."

"Yes, we will." She smiled, looking down at her ice cream. She scooped some up but didn't eat it just yet. Looking up at him, she arched an eyebrow. "Have you ever been with a woman before me?" He said he wasn't gay, but she wasn't sure if that meant he had only been with guys but he was attracted to women as well.

"You’re not volatile," Greg said with a smirk. She was right though, Scott wasn’t as temperamental. "I don’t know what I want as far as everything goes." He wasn’t sure he ever wanted kids and marriage and all of that, it just wasn’t that important to him. "I’d like to think we could try and remain friends if this goes pear shaped, but I’m not sure. It wasn’t that Scott and I went bad, it was more that I couldn’t bring him into our world so I had to step back. It took years for him and I to get our friendship back." He took a bite of his ice cream and looked back up at her. "I think the real question is, is the risk worth the price?"

"Yes," she said without even a single thought. She had walked away from her family for him. She had given up everything she was used to, the life that she had being that pureblood elitist she was raised to be. He was worth so much more. "I think you and I could be epic," she let go of a soft laugh, "for lack of a better word. Legendary? As long as we don't kill each other in the process." She laughed a little, taking a bite of her ice cream.

"I really do understand, B. You don’t have to explain your reasoning. Its alright, honest. I’m ok with things the way they are." He was, they could stay the way they were, they didn’t need to move forward. relationships were messy anyway. Though if Greg were being honest, he would have liked to try it out with B.

"No, I do," she smiled slowly. "But get me some chocolate ice cream first and then we'll sit down. Because I really do need to say this." She grabbed his hand and lead him over to get ice cream, chocolate for her and chocolate and banana for Greg before they sat down. She looked at Greg. "I want everything with you. When my parents were forcing me to find someone, I didn't want it. I didn't want you know the whole husband, kids, all that. I know we're just starting, but falling in love with you has made me want all that. I'm not too scared to try, and I want to try if you do... But if things don't work out, I don't want to lose you as my friend. If we do this, if we let this thing take us through all the possibilities, if something goes wrong, can we still be friends? I know you have that with Scott, but something tells me he's not as volatile as I am." She was honest. She knew she could make things horrible between them if things went bad. "Please don't let me be my own worst enemy. You're far too important to me."

"I think I’d be worried if it didn’t." He knew what she was scared of, he had a little more experience in this, but it still scared him too. She was easily his best friend and he loved her, but if it went bad, he doubted he could save it like he did with Scott. "I understand if you don’t want more than whatever this is." He didn’t really know what it was, but really he did understand.

B sighed, pulling him into the ice cream shop. Taking a deep breath, she looked up at him. "The problem is, I want so much, and if for any reason," because she wasn't disillusioned, she knew the things that could happen in a relationship, "that this doesn't work out, I know all I'd have to lose and I don't like that." She wasn't saying she didn't want to do this with him. She was telling him she was heading into it in spite of what happened, but he needed to know that she was scared... Not that he didn't, she just needed him to know why she was scared.

"Whatever you want, we’re doing it." He was ok with not actually dating, if its what she wanted. He wasn’t an easy person to deal with, or so he’d been told. She did it better than most though.

She smiled, loving the way she felt in his arms. "I've never been in love with anyone, Greg. This is all so new to me. I'd be lying if I said," her voice lowered, "this didn't frighten me a bit." She wasn't afraid of anything, but all the possibilities and the fall out should things not go so well could be disastrous. She knew she could only admit something like that to him. Anyone else, they'd mock her.

"Yeah, us quidditch players, we’re no good. Thats for sure." He was maybe being a little sarcastic, but at the same time, he wasn’t. There were a lot of guys on the teams that Greg knew first hand were no good to date, Duncan, was one of them. Though he liked the guy, dating him was just bad idea. He wrapped his arm around B and pulled her into his side and smiled. He really did love her.

B smiled, pulling his arm more around her. "I know there's one quidditch player that isn't too bad to be dating..." She turned her head to look at him. "If that's what we're doing?" She laughed just a little bit. "What are we doing?"

"She’s my little sis, B. He’s a quidditch player. You and I both know the sort of things players get up to. If he had been anything less the fucking terrified for her safety, it would have been his life on the line. Though I will say… Having it be Aidan asking about Nat was perhaps even more unsettling."

B placed her hand on his arm. "I understand. Honestly, I wouldn't want Alyssa dating a quidditch player." She may be a bit of a hypocrite, dating one herself, but Greg was the least of people she had to be concerned about.
