There you were laying in bed, crying in Blaise's arms. He did his best to console you, holding you tightly. Somedays, some days just go on for too long. Blaise is always there to make them go quicker, or make it feel like the next day will come quicker at least.

You had walked into his dorm after bombing an important test. Blaise took one look at you and moved from his desk to his bed. Climbing in and opening the covers for you to climb in. You smiled softly, before going to his dresser and pulling out a pair of sweats and one of Blaise t-shirts. You took your skirt off and shirt, not caring that it was in front of Blaise. You two had seen each other naked more times then you could count. You got into the comfy clothes and climbed into Blaise's bed.

The second his arms wrapped around you, all the tears you held in during the test, after the test, the walk to his dorm, and while getting dressed, all came out. They came out hard too.

Blaise knew your schedule better than anyone and knew you better than you know yourself. He knew that you were crying over the test, because he had calmed you down the night before.

He wrapped his arms around you, gently kissing the top of your head every once and a while. He started humming gently, hoping to help you ground yourself. You knew that in the grand scheme of things, crying over this test was dumb, but you coudlnt help but feel overhwlemd with frustration over how it went. Blaise knew it too, you just needed to cry it out and then afterwards you were able to bring perspective and move on.

Right now though, you just need to feel Blaises arms around you, holding you tightly.

After about thirty minutes of Blaise's quiet humming and you trying to match your breathing to his, you finally feel like you can talk.

You mumbled a thank you and he stood up. You looked at him confused as he put his hand out for you to grab it.

"Come dance with me" he said, motioning for you to grab his hand.

You wiped your eyes to make sure you had no more tears and then grabbed his hands.

He spun you in a circle and pulled you in tight to his chest.

" I like being close to you" he says as you two sway back and forth.

You lifted your head up and smiled at him, " I like being close to you too"

He leaned down and kissed you. He pressed his lips against yours for a long time before pressing four short kisses causing you to giggle into the final kiss.

He pulled away and spun you once again, dipping you dramatically. Causing you to burst out laughing at his dramatics.

"You know I would do anything to hear your laugh" he said as he brought you back to a standing position.

" I know, Mr. Prankster," you say, remembering the time he made Draco trip just to make you laugh.

Blaise laughed at the nickname and pulled you in for another kiss.

You pulled away, just enough to mumble a "can we cuddle" that earned you a chuckle and a "mmhmm"
