Ficlet: Pillow Talk #1

Title: Pillow Talk #1
Author: Emma Grant
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Harry/Draco
Summary: Vignettes from a relationship.
Length: Short (636 words).
Note 1: Written for

anise_anise, who is loved muchly.
Note 2: Part of a series of short fics written out of order, all centered around a theme. I'll post one a day over the next few days. I don't yet know how many there will be.

Start with the first one.

"Harder... yes..."

A drop of something wet hit Draco's cheek and he brushed it away with an impatient swipe. Harry always got sweaty during sex, but at the moment Draco really didn't care. How could he? -- with Harry pounding into him, hitting just the right spot, right there...

"Like that... oh god..." Draco covered his eyes with one hand as the sound of Harry's panting increased. He would feel guilty later -- it always took him a long time, while Harry barely needed friction -- but now all he could think about was the grip of Harry's fingers on his hips, the pressure building in his groin, the steady rise of sensation pushing toward release.

"I'm... I'm... ah..." His words spiraled into an inarticulate howl as it overwhelmed him; his fist a blur on his cock, his mouth open, his body arching into Harry.

The feeling faded into a lovely sated dizziness. He was vaguely aware of Harry's grunts of effort turning into another sound altogether, of the rhythm in his arse becoming erratic and then stopping. Harry collapsed onto him, shaking a bit.

And he was… sweaty. Draco sighed and tried not to think about it. He stroked Harry's arms -- which were less sweaty than his back, Draco knew from almost a year of experience. He shouldn't mind. All of that sweat was the result of Harry's hard work, he reminded himself. Hard work done almost entirely for Draco's benefit.

Harry chose that moment to rub his forehead against Draco's dry cheek.

"Eww!" Draco groaned, pushing him away.

"What?" Harry grinned, now hovering over him. "Afraid you'll get dirty?"

Draco grimaced. "You know I have a thing about sweat."

"Oh, look," Harry said, staring at Draco's forehead. "You're sweaty too. I'll just--"

"No!" Draco said, but he already felt the warm swipe of Harry's tongue on his skin. He closed his eyes. "You fucking… You know I hate that!"

"You secretly love it," Harry whispered between licks.

"I don't. I hate it. I hate you."

"No you don't," Harry replied, his tone one of mock exasperation. "You love me. You're so fucking in love with me that you secretly wrap yourself up in the sweaty sheets when I leave." He licked some more, working his way down Draco's neck.

"Stop it!" Draco said, but he'd started to laugh. He couldn't help it.

"Admit it," Harry said as he buried his nose in Draco's underarm. "You love this."

"No."

"You love me." Harry was tickling him now, trying to pry his arm away from his body. Draco tried to wriggle away, but Harry's weight on him kept him from moving. Harry caught his arm and pressed it into the pillow above his head.

"I hate you," Draco laughed.

"No you don't," Harry said. His voice was muffled against Draco's skin. "You love it when I drip sweat all over you. You love me for it."

"I…" Draco began, and then gasped as Harry's tongue wormed its way into the hair under his arms. It felt... good. "Oh god," he breathed. "I do."

Harry's head popped up. "You do?"

"I what?" Draco asked, feeling himself blush. What had he just said?

Harry's eyes were wide. "You love me?"

Draco stared back at him for several seconds. It wasn't exactly what he'd meant to say, but... it was true. At least, he thought it was. He'd never really been in love before, so he wasn't entirely certain.

He took a deep breath. "Yes."

For once, Harry was lost for words. He stared at Draco for a long moment and then leaned forward.

Draco put a hand over Harry's mouth and grinned. "Oh, no -- not after where your mouth has been!"

Harry kissed him anyway.

And it wasn't that bad, Draco thought -- when he could think again.

Just beautiful, and oh so perfectly perfect!

Thanks!

Thank you so much!

Thank you! Yeah, he's channeling me there. :-P

Oh, that was just what I needed. The boys are excellent and the sex wonderful. So much in 636 words.

Thank you so much!

(De-lurks)
I've always loved how absolutely genuine and real your writing is - especially the sex scenes. Sure, perfectly perfect Draco and perfectly perfect Harry getting it on is nice, in it's own way, but I much prefer your realistic take on every aspect.
Makes it FAR easier to imagine in your head I think, because all of a sudden they feel human, and are doing human things -be it sex or not. It's very refreshing to read things like this and see very clearly that these characters do actually fit into this world, and aren't just pretty things doing pretty things to each other.

I ADORE your character interaction. This really really brightened up my morning, thankyou very much!

Oh, I appreciate this so very much! I try really hard to write realistic relationship dynamics, even in something as short as this. And I totally agree with you that realism makes fic more enjoyable. :-)

Thank you so much!

Sounds like some of the arguements me and my friend have. XD

LOL! Those would be close friends, huh? ;-)

This was absolutely what my day called for! I loved it. Well, I loved it except for the squicky armpit licking thing. Naw, that was good too!

Thanks so much for raising my spirits!

*grins* It's funny how subjectve squick is, isn't it? Thanks so much!

You lovely, fluffy queen! You're a dear heart. I've been trying to write for her all day but writer's block and my meeting schedule have not been kind. -sigh-

This is the only thing I can do! I don't want to rant in my journal, because that doesn't really do any good. I can't go there and hold her hand. But I can try to write something for her. :-)

I love the sweetness.

Thank you!

I love you! Oh emma! that's the first time i've smiled all day!!! *hugs* *grovels* You're way way too good to me, honey. *loves and loves and loves*

Yay! Smiles are good! :-D

I gotta work our favorite kink into one of these. *grins*

Lovely, just beautiful fluff! ♥

Thanks! ♥

Let's celebrate fun ficlets! This was funny. I liked it.

Yes, fun! We need a little fun lately. Thanks! ;-)

So cute! I loooove it.

Thank you! :-)

Every time I read something by you, you have me convinced of Harry/Draco. This is especially cute and sweet. But all of your stories are great.

I really am a Harry/Snape fan. Really. ;-)

LOVE! --is what it's all about... what the world needs now, and etc...thank you so much for taking the time for this. May there be thousands of ficlets givng birth to more ficlets of l*o*v*e and may it be highly contagious to OTPs everywhere!

I love this like Harry loves Draco. And that's sayin' something.

*grins* How sweet! Thanks!

That was *wonderful*! They're just so, so... sweet! In a very snarky way of course;)

Thank you so much! Sweet and snarky -- hee! ;-)

You and this rush of fluff... and underarm sweat! *squirms and hides with Draco ;)

Fluff and squick, all at once! Cats and dogs, living together!

I blame you for the squick that seems to have infiltrated my writing of late. You've been such a bad influence... ;-)

Still more with the love, here... ♥ Lovely! :)

Thank you! *♥'s you back*

I loved it. I could really relate to that! The husband will turn funny once in a while and he'll start doing things like that and as much as I want to be outraged by it, I can never do it.
Real life situations in fic are priceless and you do it so easy!

Thanks so much! I really like to try to do real relationship dynamics as much as possible, so I appreciate that. And are we married to the same man? ;-)

i really like this.. like others have said you pack so much in to a smallish drable... complete with uncomfotable moments of conessions that perhaps you realy do like it.

*beams*

Thanks so much! I like writing people in uncomfortable positionis, because those are so rich, you know? :-D

yay! more boy!smut fluff.

you make my hearts happy. ♥

thanks! *throws more ♥s around*

I so love the way you write. You can really capture all those tender moments. Both stories were great.

Thank you so mnuch! How sweet!

I'm in love with this series! I read #4 as well and enjoyed it very much. I always adore how you characterize them and show their thoughts. It feels very real and natural.

Thank you! I appreciate that very much! It's been a while since I decided to experiment, so this has been fun so far. :-)

I'm confused.. Why does it go #4 then #1? hehe I mean other then that slight confusion it's really good. ^_^

*points to author notes above* Because I'm writing them out of order. ;-)

I've always wanted to experiment a little with nonlinear storytelling, so this seemed like a funplace to try it. Thanks for reading!
