Snogging Pox

Busy Holiday

Last Time:

"I can't just have Severus killed. At least, not until the summer so I have time to get a new DADA professor and by then Harry will be horcrux hunting so as a spy Severus wouldn't be needed anymore. I'll have a house elf drug him with some potions like Lupin." Dumbledore shrugged carelessly, but then winced in pain because of the effects of the counter potion ...

XXXXXXXXXX

Ron pouted on his bed, "I miss Harry." He blushed as he remembered the hug he shared with Harry before leaving. "I wonder if he's ... with the Slytherins."

"Would it matter if he was? Harems are normal for heirs, remember?"

"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Ron yelped as the completely unexpected voice of his brother came out of nowhere, "Dammit Percy! Have you ever heard of knocking?" He snapped as he threw his brother a nasty glare.

Percy gave a mock snarl, "Yeah, I heard of him. He owes me money." He joked with a balled up fist raised in the air playfully as if threatening to punch someone, but then he walked in the room, kicked the door shut and flopped on the bed next to his brother. "So what has been flying around in my dear baby brother's mind?"

"N-nothing." Ron stuttered with a blush.

The older redhead hummed at the unconvincing answer, "Really ... strange, I swore I heard Harry's name a minute ago." He sighed and laid back on the bed as if relaxing.

"Well ... maybe." Rom mumbled and started twitching under his brother's lazy gaze until he finally broke. "Fine ... I was thinking of Harry."

"Was he on top of you in your thoughts-oof!" Percy grunted as a pillow hit his face. "So that's a yes then." He said without removing the pillow perched on his face, which made his voice muffled.

"Pervert." Ron huffed, his cheeks were practically glowing a deep red color.

The pillow wiggled as the older brother chuckled and lazily tilted his head to let the pillow fall off his face, "Yep! Now that we settled that what are you afraid of? That Severus or any of the others will get a hot Potter cock up the ass before you? Ron, you know what Bill told Harry about all the titles he has inherited. The Potter title, the Black title, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and some lordships are in there too. He needs a lot of kids to pass those titles down. We are a fertile family, but you might have trouble with all that by yourself. With a harem it'll be easier and, you know, Harry always respected the Slytherins even with their treatment."

"I ... I know, but what if ... he doesn't need me?" Ron muttered so softly it sounded like a whimper.

Percy sat up and pulled Ron into a hug, "Tell me, little brother, do you agree that Harry was always more Slytherin than Gryffindor?" Percy could feel Ron nod into his chest, "but that never affected your friendship, did it?" He felt the smaller red head shake his head. "You're his friend and I doubt he'll let you go. Harry isn't the type of person who will throw away someone like that so just tell him how you feel ... considering how observant he is he might have some clue about it already, but just never said anything because you didn't." Ron looked up at Percy with a clearly horrified expression and embarrassed blush. "Oh please Ron, you are not subtle. We all knew you loved him. You were the only clueless one because you built some sort of wall around your heart and tried to deny it ... I don't know what destroyed those walls so suddenly, but I'm glad you're opening up."

"Why weren't you in Slytherin?" Ron mumbled into his brother's chest feeling better about his place in Harry's life after Percy's words sank in.

"The Sorting Hat actually said that it would be a good house for me, but then decided I'd drive them mad so it put me in Gryffindor." Percy said all too casually.
