Drabbley

Here's a little drabble-and-a-half. Yes, honest to goodness, 150 words ONLY. This is for tipgardner, who has been urging me to try out new things, including drabbling again. ^_^ *loves*

It can go with this story if you like, but it doesn't have to.

(H/D, PG, boys aren't mine, yadda yadda)

It was the same bed, and the candles were lit. Cream colored sheets, burgundy duvet rolled at their feet, and four soft pillows with their scent in the cotton. Harry’s jacket perched over the mahogany dresser. The antique bookshelf still held spellbooks and Muggle novels, and Draco toasted Pansy’s wedding silently over and over in the photo there. But Draco caught Harry’s hand and Harry looked at him and waited.

Draco breathed. “Husband… is a big word.”

The enormity of it settled over Draco. He bit his lip, blinking. Harry’s hand crept to Draco’s wrist, thumb moving in slow circles over his palm. He kissed the gold band on Draco’s finger, then his own.

“Yes, it is.”

Draco closed his eyes. When he opened them, deep green shone back. Harry found his mouth tenderly with his own, and their room was the same as always, if just a little warmer.

Oooh, lovely! I like the idea that it's the same bed, the same room, and yet something really big has changed between them. Good work!

Pegged it, m'dear! *loves* Thank you!

Hey, have you gotten a chance to see Sith yet? ^___^

*grins* Now that would be like me asking you if you'd seen "Goblet of Fire" a few days after it had come out :). I love it, although it seems to have cursed me with a headache since then (Revenge of the Sith indeed!). There are a number of flaws with it, but that just opened the doors for a whole bunch of plot bunnies to come in, so I'm a happy camper. If it had been perfect, there would be nothing left to do! :D

Yeah, I was just happy that it surpassed Eps 1 and 2 BY FAR. My god, it was almost like watching the original three again. Almost. Not exactly, but still much better than the other two. I loved Obi Wan in Ep 3. LOVED. His relationship with Anakin was so beautifully done. So like a father/son togetherness. Anakin just wanted to please him... You could tell he was the only thread holding Anakin to where he was. Anyway. I liked the show. ^_^

*smiles* I'm glad you liked it. I saw it again today and I'm definitely even more in love with it now. I agree, the Obi/Ani relationship was wonderfully built. That's why it was so sad it fell apart :(.

Yesh. I am sure you have a million more plot bunnies now though. ^_~
