𝕴 stumbled around the cottage, my hands in my hair, holding it up in a pony tail position whilst trying to find one of my hair ties.
"Fuck— where the fuck do they all go?" I cursed, feeling pretty irritated and peeved that every time I needed a hair band, I could never find one, even though I know I have hundreds of them around here somewhere.
I stilled when a shadow loomed over me from behind and began gathering my hair for me, securing it in the pony tail tightly, yet handling with care and delicacy. My shoulders slumped and I relaxed as he raked his fingers through the ends, bending around to press a lingering kiss to my cheek, mumbling,
"You're cute when you're mad"
I grumbled, turning around to face him blankly, a weak smile fleeting across his lips as he gazed down at me, a glimmer of worry fogging his irises. In order to reassure him, I rested my palms on his chest, leaning up on my tiptoes to capture his lips into a gentle kiss, murmuring,
"We'll be fine. When we're done, we'll come home and spend the entirety of tomorrow in bed"
A chuckle rumbled from the depths of his chest from her cheeky insinuation, lifting his hand to brush back a fallen loose strand, allowing his eyes to dance all over her tempting features as he replied lowly,
"You know we're going to see my mum, you bloody badger. I suppose we could be a little late though, it's not like we said we'd go at any specific time"
"My thoughts exactly, Casanova" I hummed gently, blissfully aware of his hands travelling to dive into the back pockets of my dark trousers. I arched my eyebrow in warning when he squeezed with a mischievous grin, muttering gruffly,
"You look very sexy, by the way"
I snorted unattractively, glancing down towards my assigned duelling gear, which happened to be dark colours to camouflage in the night. I guessed patrolling the streets of Hogsmeade on Order business wearing Hufflepuff yellow would perhaps attract unwanted attention by those we were assigned to check up on.
Dumbledore had decided tonight he wanted many eyes and ears patrolling the most notable places in the Wizarding World; Sirius and I in Hogsmeade, Remus, Scarlette and James in Diagon Alley, Regulus, Peter and Marlene in Godrics Hollow, leaving Alice, Frank and Dorcas at the Ministry. Everyone else had the night off supposedly or where already on longer undercover assignments.
"I don't understand why we're not together, we're married, we should be doing this together" He huffed, slumping his forehead on to hers to soak in as much of her as he possibly can, hoping it would soothe some of his anxiety and frustration on the entire thing.
I sighed quietly, winding my arms around his neck to secure the embrace, theorising calmly, "You know why, we've been over this. We're only patrolling anyway, we're not picking any fights and we're not expecting any surprises"
