Lucius & @beautyispoison - Date Night Late evening, Three Broomsticks // Harvest Festival
Lucius’ parents had been all too happy to take Draco for the night. That was something Lucius wouldn’t have counted as unusual if it weren’t for the fact that Abraxas had given a suggestive look that would have had some uncouth comment attached to it if he hadn’t spoken first when it came to saying goodbye. The process of changing out of the clothes he wore out that day to put something a little less stifling on and return to the festivities had taken more convincing than he could appreciate. While Cissa had offered to simply stay home or find somewhere a little more intimate, he had given a firm head shake and mumbled about sticking to the original plan of getting a few dances in before properly retiring for the night.
His focus was on Narcissa, one hand resting against her lower back while the other lightly grasped her hand, swaying in time to the music. He had been overly quiet for the first few songs, quite content to bask in being with Narcissa. Lucius gave a low chuckle when they went to turn, eyebrows furrowing together before he spoke. “I would not have put it past my father to make some sort of remark about expecting an announcement that we are expecting within a month’s time after tonight.” He spoke just above a whisper, treading carefully since it wasn’t the best place for bringing it up. Not the best place but not something he could easily get off his mind. It was too much to think about and there would be no holding his tongue if they did go to pick up Draco and Abraxas had the audacity to properly say the comment he tried to avoid when leaving.
