Harry’s ready to banish the Golden Boy image and take charge of his life. Unfortunately for him, or fortunately, there are surprises in store for him.
As his thoughts wandered, the game had been continuing. Everyone was getting pretty pissed by this time. Many of the faces around the room were flushed and people were a lot more relaxed and lounging against each other. Harry decided to see how much he could up the ante.
On his next turn he started by saying, "I never got a tattoo." He took his drink, then sat up and stripped his shirt off. That alone got all eyes on him. Gasps could be heard as he stood up and turned around.
Harry had been able to find a charm over the summer that made his tattoo move, much like wizard photos. Now the snakes endlessly slithered and twined around each other, constantly moving.
His tattoo suddenly had a new meaning as he looked down at Draco over his shoulder. At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to be twined around the silver snake that was looking back at him with a touch of awe and lust. Draco's gaze flicked again to Harry's back and he unconsciously licked his lips as he took another look at that wonderfully smooth skin of Harry's. The leather trousers he was wearing rode low on his hips, yet the entwined snakes dipped a bit lower. Harry watched as Draco flicked his eyes to Harry's for a brief moment, and then slowly reached up to pull the back of the trousers that little bit lower to be able to see the complete tattoo.
Every pair of eyes was locked on the action between the two. Everyone knew that Draco was the leader of the Slytherins. Everyone also knew that whatever Draco wanted, Draco got. Harry was the new guy in the group, but it was becoming increasingly clear that, even aside from being their Head of House's son, he was a force to be reckoned with. Anyone who could bring their Slytherin Prince to his knees like that had to be someone important.
In the back of his mind, Harry recognized that he was gaining the respect, if not the trust, of the house. His focus at that moment though, was narrowing down to the blonde directly behind him. Harry slowly turned and looked down at Draco, who was still kneeling on the floor where he had moved to get a closer look at Harry's tattoo. Harry lowered himself to his knees in front of Draco, his eyes still locked on those beautiful silver eyes in front of him. Without ever saying a word, they both leaned forward until their lips met. It was just a casual brush of lips at first. Eyes still locked, with questions and answers flowing between them, not asked aloud. Both wanted to know if this was okay with the other, and they both answered yes.
Harry brought his hands up to Draco's waist and Draco brought his hands up to Harry's shoulders and as they leaned towards each other once again, their eyes drifted shut. Harry met Draco's lips and ran his tongue along Draco's lower lip, asking permission for entrance. Draco quickly parted his lips, sending his own tongue out in a quest for exploration. They became lost in the discovery of each other's mouths for long minutes.
Eventually, the others in the room lost their sense of shock and wonder and the paralysis was lifted. Catcalls and wolf whistles could be heard throughout the room all of a sudden. Harry and Draco drew back as they realized that they were the centre of attention. Neither blushed, though. The interaction between them felt too right to be ashamed. Harry looked Draco in the eyes before he spoke.
"Will you be the silver snake to my black snake?" Harry asked Draco the question without consciously thinking about it. Once the question left his lips, he realized it sounded extremely quirky, but he didn’t take it back.
Draco didn't seem to think it odd either as he quickly nodded his head.
Both teens remembered the picture of Harry's tattoo, the black and silver snakes intertwined together. Somehow it just all felt right.
