Kitsune no Yobi (狐の呼び)

Sunday 31st October 99 (Epilogue)

Draco had spent the whole week training after class, and after four days, was able to make his features appear and disappear without any meditation. Today was Halloween and he was happily getting ready for the ball that had been organised. He looked at himself in the mirror, satisfied by his vampire costume. Of course, the idea could be considered basic, but his outfit was far from it. He had managed to find an antique suit, had paled his skin even more thanks to a charm, turned his hair black, his eyes red and made his teeth longer and pointier. On top of it, he had managed to make his long nails appear and had dressed his hands of old rings and chains. Only one ting was bugging him: the ball was an hour away and Harry still had not asked him out. He sighed and let himself fall on the couch ungraciously. "What is he waiting for?" He thought with a pout.

He was snatched from his sulking by a knock at the door. Sighing, he got up and opened it on a knelt... Pirate? In Harry's messy hair were sparkling a couple of golden jewels, holding little braids together. One of his eyes was closed and crossed by a scar. He was wearing a large silk shirt that opened on his torso, showing a few more scars, and a corset right on it as well as wide pants and boots. At his waist hanged a sword. He looked up, his golden earrings and hair ornaments tinkling, and took Draco's hand before kissing it.

"Will you go to the ball with me?"

"I thought you'd never ask."

"I was waiting for you to ask."

Draco started laughing.

"So, is it a yes?"

He pulled on Harry's hand, making him stand up and pressed their lips together, gently pulling his hair, then moved away smiling.

"Of course it's a yes."

And hand in hand, they headed to their common room where cat-Pansy, knight-Ron and angel-Hermione were waiting.
