“Careful -- one of them’s going to come at us with a bat if we make any more noise” With his arms draped around her shoulders from behind, Harry kept his chin rested on the top of her head while suppressing a chuckle as they attempted to move through the now somewhat quiet house without making any sound. Knowing that he shared a room with Ginny, he opted for the last floor. He didn’t even know what to expect of tonight or why they were even still wearing the stupid masks, he just needed to be alone with her for one night. Reaching for the door handle, Harry pulled it down and pushed the door open, placing his hand on the small of the brunette’s back as they made their way in and shut the door behind them. His lips were already burning from the absence of hers, itching to feel her lips and tongue moving against his once again. Stepping towards her, he cupped her face and sealed the space between their lips with another kiss. He’d practically kissed all of the red lipstick off at this point. The feeling of her lips against his obliterated every thought. If any of them knew better, neither of them would be here right now, but he didn’t want to think. He only thought of right now and his desire to keep her this close to him. The dark room almost looked like an etched charcoal painting, barely anything but silhouettes visible.
They moved backwards towards the bed, ending up with his body hovering over her petite one. Nothing but the sound of the summer rain pattering against the window and their smacking of their lips against one another was audible in the room. He couldn’t get enough of this girl, not nearly. The way she moved, the way she spoke, the way she kissed him -- even one night wasn’t enough. He’d promised he’d learn her by the end of the night not a few hours ago, but a few hours wouldn’t even begin to cover the very start of this girl. With his heart practically galloping in his chest, he moved his hands upwards, one hand losing itself in her long, brown hair and the other cupping her cheek. Breaking their lips apart for a much needed breath, Harry pulled away and took a good look at her. In the darkness of the room with nothing but the dim moonlight offering the slightest clue of what he was looking at, Harry could barely see anything. He didn’t know he if he wanted to see anything at this point. He wasn’t ready to climb out of the rabbit hole they’d fallen into just yet. Dragging his tongue over his lips as he tried to catch his breath, he reached for the mask she’d been wearing all night and lifted it off her face gently, tossing it away onto the carpeted floor. He pushed the hair away from her face, unable to determine what it was he was looking for, exactly. The little glint in her glossy eyes -- the endless brown eyes he’d been staring into all night, he could still see a hint of that glint. For a moment, just a single moment, Harry knew he was lying to himself. They could pretend all they want tonight, but he knew that only one person he knew had that particular shade of brown in her eyes. The shades he’d spent years secretly memorising growing up. He quickly pushed all thoughts away -- shoving every bit out doubt out of his system. Tearing his own mask off and tossing it aside, Harry gently brushed his thumb against her prominent cheekbone and placed a soft kiss on her cheek before he found her lips in the darkness again, laying them both down on the bed. It was all lips, wandering hands, lips, clouded judgements, and some more lips.
