Summary: Harry decides that bringing a date to a wedding is more hassle than it's worth.

Harry had decided to attend Neville and Luna's wedding stag. He was tired of every date he went on turning into a media circus. This was their day, not his, and he would be damned if his celebrity status outshone the bride. He was still seething from the article in Witch Weekly last summer that had 'outed' him.

So it was that he found himself nursing a drink by the bar while the couples around him were on the dance floor.

"My, my ... what do we have here? Don't tell me the Saviour of the wizarding world is dateless?"

Harry cringed as Draco Malfoy's words washed over him. "What's it to you, Malfoy?"

"Well, it's just that I'd have thought every eligible witch - or should I say wizard - would be falling all over you. After all, you're ... what did they say? Ah, yes ... every gay wizard's wet dream come true." He smirked as he said those last words, clearly enjoying himself.

"What's the matter, Malfoy? Afraid I might take away your reigning title of Most Eligible Gay Wizard?"

"Hardly, Potter," scoffed Malfoy. "I remember your skills on the dance floor from the Yule Ball at school."

"I've changed since school."

"Are you asking me to dance, Potter?"

"What if I am? Scared, Malfoy?"

"You wish," he retorted, pulling Harry onto the dance floor.

Their bodies melded together deliciously as their hips moved to the beat of the music. Before long, Harry found himself fighting to keep his libido at bay.

"Let's go dance somewhere more private," Malfoy suggested.

"Where did you have in mind?"

"Between my sheets."

Neither man noticed the camera flash, capturing the look of lust in their eyes as they Apparated.

Two Most Eligible Gay Wizards No Longer Eligible.

Okay... *swoons*

You know you just killed me, right? I mean, you were aware when you were writing this that I would die of happiness?

*flails and jumps up and down with joy*

Thank you so much for sharing this!
*kisses you*

[starrose]

Oh brilliant! XD

"Let's go dance somewhere more private," Malfoy suggested.

"Where did you have in mind?"

"Between my sheets."

Excellent!

ooooh, i liked this very much

i especially liked how it was only done in 300 words yet conveyed so much

*hugs*

[piratesmile331.livejournal.com]

Between Draco's sheets sounds like a very good place to dance indeed.

[jamie2109.livejournal.com]

Haha what a corny come on line, but so amusing!!! I do like the idea of them having to dance to finally realise how much they want each other.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Does that mean you'll take it as an early birthday gift? I can change the header to include that. (Hee - just kidding ... Saturday, right?) Ahh ... you like the boys dancing, then? ;)

Glad you enjoyed it.

*smooches you back*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Oh-so-cheesie, but if it works, why not? Heh.

Glad you enjoyed it. Oh, and I'm giggling at your icon.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hon. Now I just have to come up with a short-but-sweet (or not so sweet) one for dh100 this week. :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Mmmm ... most definitely.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Heh. I groaned, even as I wrote it. *cackles*

Yeah, the idea of holding the other person so close to you, then having realization dawn? *sighs* I'd have liked to expand upon it a bit, but those drabbles really limit the details. Glad you were amused. :)

Subtlety is overrated. A direct approach will get you there faster *nods*

*also wishes for a peep through the keyhole*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hee - indeed. I had actually written, "Is that your subtle way of asking me to dance?" but I had to cut it for length. Funny you mentioned subtlety. ;)

*falls over ded from the hot gay wizardness*
Gad, I'm so selfish; now I want a drawing of that picture.

*goes back to being ded*

[psycho-glam.livejournal.com]

wow :O
and there is something about dancing..that is seriously hot.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*revives you* Thanks. :)

Well, you wouldn't want ME to draw a picture of it. *shudders* I can't draw my way out of a wet paper bag. :(

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Mmm ... perhaps bodies close together, grinding to the music? ;)

[prettyhairs.livejournal.com]

My, Draco! You are as subtle as a pink elefant!;)

You amaze me again and again with your talent=)

[gurliemoviegeek.livejournal.com]

Saturday is indeed the big day!
33 years old. Ugh.

I freakin' love the boys dancing! And you blew my mind here! Like, literally, blew my mind!

So wonderful!!!! Thank you!

[coffeejunkii.livejournal.com]

[lijahlover.livejournal.com]

I love your Harry and Draco in this!

Thanks!:D

[svgurl.livejournal.com]

This was just awesome! I loved it so much.

"Let's go dance somewhere more private," Malfoy suggested.

"Where did you have in mind?"

"Between my sheets."

Take charge Draco! Those lines were fantastic.

Thanks for writing and sharing!

[hpstrangelove.livejournal.com]

Oh, this was wonderful. I love the way you write the boys (men) here!

[ravenqueen55.livejournal.com]

I like! I like! As odd as it may seem, my favourite part is when Draco says "Hardly, Potter...". I can just hear it in my head so clearly!

[ravenqueen55.livejournal.com]

Oh. My. Freaking. God. *licks Tom*

[ravenqueen55.livejournal.com]

LOL! Your icon is HILARIOUS!!
