Fifth Year|Eighteen| "What Are We?"

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
And face it all together
At sky fall

Evan and Barty had been sneaking around for a few months. They weren't officially a thing, but that was fine with Evan. At least he got to be close to him.

One might, the two were sitting up in the Astronomy Tower, smoking weed they'd stolen off some third years, holding hands and looking up at the stars.

"Hey, B?" Evan started, looking turning his head to look at Barty. "Yeah?" Barty inquired. "What happened with your dad? You two were like mates when school started, and until fourth year" Evan asked.

Barty's face darkened. "Uhm, he just doesn't like me anymore" he said. Evan could tell he was lying.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah"

"Really?"

"..no"

"What happened?"

"I don't wanna talk about it"

"Okay" Evan said softly. He put his head on Barty's shoulder and held his waist.

"Y'know, I never would have thought we'd be doing this" Barty whispered after some silence.

"I know, right? It feels unreal" Evan replied. He inhaled the smell of Barty's sweater. "Y'know, you're so beautiful" Barty said, boldly.

"You think?" Evan asked, smiling. "Yeah. You're the prettiest boy around" Barty answered. Evan's heart melted.

"You're being oddly sweet" Evan commented. "I'm high as fuck" Barty laughed dryly. Evan grinned and kissed Barty's cheek.

Barty was laying in bed, with Evan's head on his chest.

"You two look so gay" Regulus said from his bed. "Says you! Mr 'I call my boyfriend Jamie'" Barty teased. "Leave him alone about that already, B. He can call his boyfriend whatever he wants" Evan jokingly ridiculed.

"Alright, Evvy" Barty said. When Regulus turned his head, Barty quickly kissed the top of Evan's head. Evan smiled up at him. Evan had such a perfect smile.

Remus was sat at the Slytherin table, waiting for Barty, Evan, and Regulus to finish their breakfast so he could follow them to their first class (he had a free period).

Remus looked over at Barty and saw his hand on Evan's thigh underneath the table. His jaw stiffened and he glared at the sight.

"What's your problem?" Evan asked. "Nothing" Remus said through gritted teeth.

He decided to leave before them, and walked around, deep in thought.

Were Barty and Evan a thing? That would really suck. But why would it suck? He and Barty had been over for almost a year.

Tuesday, May 4th, 1976

Barty didn't see Remus for the rest of the day. The day after, he was back to sitting with his friends. He apparently wasn't speaking to Sirius though.

"Hey, D'you know why Lupin isn't with us?" Regulus asked. "Nope. Maybe he figured things out with his mates yesterday when he was missing" Barty replied.

"Shame, we were just starting to become friends" Evan said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. "Ev, don't" Barty warned.

"What? I'm not doin' anything!" Evan defended. "Yeah, yeah, whatever" Barty replied, waving him off. Regulus threw his bag over his shoulder and said, "I'm meeting Jamie in the library to study. I'll see you lot later".

He left and slammed the dorm door shut behind him.

"So..we're alone.." Barty said, raising his eyebrows suggestively at Evan.

"Mhm, so we are" Evan replied, returning the suggestive look.

Barty walked over to Evan's bed, and straddled him. He put his arms around his neck, and kissed him.

The kiss was nice, like always. Although, something was different. One of Evan's hands were in Barty's hair, the other one gripping his ass.

Evan pulled away, and looked into Barty's eyes.

"B, I wanna talk about what we are" he said, seriously.

"Yeah, okay. Let's talk" Barty said, climbing off Evan's lap.

"So, what are we? Are we together? Are we just messing around? Are we just friends? What are we?" Evan asked.

"I dunno, what do you wanna be?"

"I'd like to be able to call you mine"

"Okay"

"Okay?"

"Yeah, I mean, do you wanna be together?"

"Obviously. I've liked you for forever"

"Okay, then. Evan Rosier, will you be my boyfriend?" Barty asked, dramatically getting down on one knee. "You're such an idiot" Evan laughed nervously.

"Will you?" Barty asked again. Evan was silent for a moment, "okay".

"Okay?"

"Okay. Yeah. I'll be your boyfriend" Evan grinned. Barty jumped up excitedly, and pulled Evan into a hug.

"Are we actually together? Or are you just bullshitting me?" Evan asked after a few minutes.

"I'm not bullshitting you. I promise" Barty replied. He held Evan's jaw and gave him kisses all over his face.

"Stop, stop, this is so gay" Evan laughed.

"You're so gay" Barty replied.

"Speaking of which, what's your deal? Like sexuality?"

"I dunno. Bi? I like tits but I also like you"

"What if I grew tits"

"That's not possible"

"I'll find a way"

"You don't have to, I like you the way you are"

"Aww, all gay and manly?"

"I wouldn't say manly, you're a twink"

"Nuh uh! I am not! I'm very manly!"

"Bullshit"

Evan pushed Barty down on the bed, him on all fours on top of Barty.

Barty's breath hitched when he realized what position they were in.

"This manly enough for ya?" Evan grinned when he noticed Barty's change in composure.

"Mhm" Barty replied, trying to muster up a proper reply.

Evan moved away and laid next to his boyfriend.

Y'all, okay, so, I realized the other day that Barty and his dad's relationship change never got an explanation, so in the next chapter, there'll be some sort of back story or whatever.

Sorry for this chapter being a day late! I could have sworn I updated yesterday!

Tysm for reading, I love seeing and replying to comments, and seeing that people are voting for my story and adding it to their libraries, it really makes my day.

The song at the beginning is Skyfall by Adele!
