Drarry Snippet: Snow Ball Fight
Hey there! This is a excerpt from my 240K fanfic, Vera Verto on AO3! Hope you like it! :)
He kissed the top of my head, squeezing my shoulders gently. I saw his hand wave slightly before he jerked himself away from me, a puffy ball of snow hitting the side of my face only a split second later, sending my glasses flying.
I gasped and clutched my stinging cheek, trying to find Draco. I saw a blurry pair of dark trousers and his laughing face.
“Malfoy, you git!” I shouted, lunging forward to push him backwards.
He laughed as we landed on the ground, snow puffing up in a cloud around us. I picked up a handful of snow and dropped it on his face before I climbed off him, snatching my glasses up from the ground. He shook his head wildly to rid himself of snow, ducking as I threw a snowball at him. He laughed loudly, waving his hand to throw a snowball at me.
The edge of it hit my arm as I dodged it, throwing another right into his sweater covered chest. He chuckled and waved his hand three more times, turning on his heel to run away from me. I was pelted three times, but that didn’t stop me from chasing him so fast it felt like I was flying.
Suddenly he stopped and turned around, his hand raised in the air, his face completely rid of emotion. I halted in my tracks, watching as he lifted his hand higher, at least 20 snowballs lifting from the ground behind him.
“You wouldn’t...” I said, slowly beginning to retreat.
“Watch me.” He said, a devilish grin spreading across his face.
I opened my mouth to tell him to stop, but all that came out was a laugh as I turned and ran the way I had just come, ducking the few snowballs that came flying at me. Only two hit me, and I wasn’t sure if that was intentional or unintentional that the others missed, but I didn’t have much time to think about it before I was being picked up from behind by Draco’s arms around my waist.
I laughed and gave weak shouts of protest, holding onto his arms tightly as he spun us around. Suddenly he was falling to the ground, holding me against his chest as we dropped to the snowy floor. I turned over in his arms, laughing and grinning down at the crinkly eyed smile spread across his face. His nose was bright red, large flakes of snow in his white-blond hair.
My lungs were burning as I looked down at his smiling face, our chests rising and falling against each other. We were both breathing so hard I couldn’t tell what who’s air was who’s. I reached one of my cold hands up to wrap around the back of his warm neck, leaning down to press a kiss against his cold lips.
