Harry stormed out after the game, too frustrated at the opposing Seeker's skill and his own performance to commiserate with his team mates. Ron had followed, but Harry quickly dismissed him, telling him he wanted to be alone and to go join the rest of their team.
Half an hour later, Harry found himself walking a familiar path, one he had walked many times before, a path that led to a stream and a path where he often went to think. He was sitting on the river bank, breathing in the fresh scent of the water and the nearby trees when a rustling sound pulled him out of his reverie.
"I thought I'd find you up here," came the familiar sound of Ron's voice.
"I thought I told you to go out with the rest, that I wanted to be alone," Harry replied, not meaning to sound so sharp. He cringed. "Sorry."
"S'alright, mate. I just thought you looked like you could use some company, despite what you said." Placing his hand on Harry's shoulder and giving it a squeeze, he sat down beside him on the bank. "Want to talk about where your mind was today?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean it clearly wasn't on the game." Harry's body tensed at the accusation, and Ron squeezed his shoulder again. "Relax, Harry. I wasn't accusing you of anything. I just noticed that your mind seemed to be somewhere else, is all. And …well, if you want to talk about it, you know I'm here."
Harry relaxed. "Yeah, I know that, and thanks. It's just … well, I've been distracted lately."
"About what?"
"I don't know how exactly to say this …"
"Say what? You know you can tell me anything, right?"
"Yeah, but this is big … something that ... I don't know … well, I don’t know how the wizarding world views this." He closed his eyes, taking a deep, soothing breath, thankful for Ron's uncharacteristic silence. "I think …" He looked up at Ron and braced himself for his friend's reaction. "I think I'm gay."
Harry held his breath for what seemed like a lifetime before Ron reacted.
He smiled at Harry and once again placed his hand on his shoulder. This time, however, he pulled his friend closer to whisper in his ear. "I think you'll find that the wizarding world can be quite accommodating."
Harry looked wide-eyed at Ron, not sure what he meant. He found out soon enough, as Ron's hand move from his shoulder to weave through his hair and draw him in for a kiss.

Date: 2007-11-11 02:15 pm (UTC)Beyond that...OMFG I LOVE YOU! This was so adorable! I think this is one of my favorites that I've read from you. The last part:
"He smiled at Harry and once again placed his hand on his shoulder. This time, however, he pulled his friend closer to whisper in his ear. "I think you'll find that the wizarding world can be quite accommodating."

Omg, that had me squeeing and happy!
This was AWESOME!

Date: 2007-11-11 05:32 pm (UTC)Wow! Thanks. *ponders* One of the best lines I've written was for a pairing I don't usually do? Hmmm ...
I'm so glad you liked it enough to squee! :o)

Date: 2007-11-12 12:37 am (UTC)But can we please have Ron be a friend with benefits, one night stand and put Harry back in Draco's bed, where everyone knows he belongs.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-12 12:47 am (UTC)Kind of surprising to see you do a Ron/Harry
Yeah, I won't be doing that again ... it was just for my cabin-mates that I went outside my usual comfort zone ... with a Ron/Harry, Pansy/Hermione, and a Ron/Viktor (though only the one with Harry was touchy for me to write). There's also a gen Ron fic thrown in for good measure. But yeah ... nothing goes further than a kiss with either Draco or Harry except between each other. *holds firm*

Date: 2007-11-12 01:09 am (UTC)Isn't it amazing the things we do for our friends. *grin*
no subject
Date: 2007-11-12 01:19 am (UTC)Yeah, but I limit it. This was a one-time deal. I shan't be doing that again any time soon. And I didn't write anything over a 'teen' rating. They can imagine whatever they'd like afterwards.

Date: 2007-11-12 02:03 am (UTC)I never IM anyone. I'm so behind the times. Perhaps one should try to get some sleep...nah, probably not.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-12 02:06 am (UTC)Sleep ... nah ... I'll get lots when I'm dead. My mom used to cringe whenever I'd say that. *cackles*
no subject
Date: 2007-11-12 01:34 am (UTC)Have you written the Ron/Viktor one, and I've just missed it? I can't wait to read that one, it should be really hot. I know alaana_fair did one with Viktor and our guys, but I've not seen yours.

You wrote me Harry/Ron!!!!
"S'alright, mate. I just thought you looked like you could use some company, despite what you said.
Totally canon! Ron always knows what Harry needs!
Harry looked wide-eyed at Ron, not sure what he meant. He found out soon enough, as Ron's hand move from his shoulder to weave through his hair and draw him in for a kiss.
*big sigh*
lovely! Thank you so much babe!
no subject
Date: 2007-11-16 05:27 am (UTC)Yes, I wrote you Harry/Ron. Only for you, because you're such a sweetie.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and I really hope to see you again at Terminus. Maybe?

Date: 2007-11-16 05:19 am (UTC)I really have enjoyed all the of the cabin-mate fics that you have written.
no subject
Date: 2007-11-16 05:48 am (UTC)As they broke apart, they looked into each other's eyes. "That was ..." Harry began.
"Weird," Ron finished for him.
"Yeah."
"Well at least we know ..."
"Yeah. Er ... thanks?"
They both collapsed into laughter, a good kind of laughter, the kind shared between friends. They knew it would never be that way between them, but Harry couldn't help but be thankful for that moment, that kiss. He didn't feel so out of place any more. Ron had always known how to make Harry feel normal, and as strange as it seemed, this was no exception.
... and Harry eventually went off with Draco and they had wild monkey sex and they lived happily ever after.
... and Ron found Viktor and they went off and had wild monkey sex and they lived happily ever after too.
... and Hermione and Pansy went off and had wild monkey sex and they lived happily ever after as well.
The end. *g*
Oh, and I'm glad you enjoyed all the fics I wrote. It was fun writing them - even more so after meeting you guys. I'm glad I took the extra time afterwards to tweak them based at least a little on what I learned about everyone.
Hope to see you at Terminus ...
