Re: Hidden Rooftop Garden

Nev loves Mya.

"See you!" She said and then hung out and looked around the garden for a bit longer before leaving. Nev hopes Mya's meeting goes nicely and that it goes by quickly. <3

Because the Astronomy Tower is taken, we're going to pretend this is the Astronomy Tower.

Draco grabbed the rest of the things and nudged the door open, making sure he wasn't going to drop anything and that she was okay with all the bowls. Max ran out ahead of them but kept coming back to circle them, making sure to follow them along as they worked their way upstairs to the tower where Draco put the things to the side and spread out the blankets.

Pansy carefully went up the stairs, not really wanting to fall and drop all their dinner. She stepped out onto the tower and sat the bowls down next to where he put the things he was carrying, sitting down on the blanket once he had it spread out. She looked up at him, waiting for him to sit with her before she put the bowl of stir fry between them and sat the bowl of food she made for Max off to the side, where the dog happily dug right in.

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco sat down opposite her and pulled he silverware out, passing her what she needed before grabbing the wine bottle and using his wand to open it. He poured them each a little and passed her the glass, "I had a great weekend." He held up his glass to hers.

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy took the silverware from him, lifting her glass as he lifted his. "Me too." She touched their glasses together and took a sip, mmming appreciatively. It was good. Sitting it aside, she picked up a fork and stabbed some of the stir fry to try.

[Draco Malfoy]

He picked up his own fork and knife and cut himself a piece of the beef to eat with his stirfry. Grinning he poked her with his foot, "Not bad. Not bad at all, I'm rather impressed actually." He reached for the bowl again to try some noodles. "Where did you learn to cook?"

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy smiled and looked down almost embarrassedly at her lap. "Thanks." She took another small bite, chewing with a slight smile. "Well, growing up in my house, if I wanted dinner I had to either go ask for some or make it myself. So Dilly taught me some things one summer so that I could eat even when mother had her busy doing other things." She picked up her glass, taking another sip of wine. "I'm glad you like it."

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco nodded, reaching out for more of it. "Well this is impressive by my standards, I'm pretty sure I would ruin a bowl of cereal." He grinned at her and put down his fork to drink some wine, moving so his back was against one of the walls. "So what else can you cook?"

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy laughed when he said he would ruin cereal. "I'm sure you could manage cereal." She kept drinking her wine, quite enjoying how it tasted. It was sweet and smooth, and she was thirsty. "I don't know. Simple things mostly. I made a lot of shepherd's pie because it was easy. Cornish pasties, but that's the same basic idea as shepherd's pie."

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco almost dropped his wine, "You make shepherd's pie!?!?!? How did I not know about this? Please please make me some Pans. You have to." He reached out and took her hand, "I know I still owe you for that massage but this just doubles the 'I'd owe you anything at all' debt."

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy smiled at him, taking another little sip of her wine. She better keep that in check, the poor girl's a lightweight. "It's not that good, I promise." Laughing as he took her hand, she shook her head but agreed to his request. "Alright, alright. Sometime I'll make you some shepherd's pie, but I promise it's only good if you're very hungry."

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco raised an eyebrow and chuckled at her, "When am I not hungry?" He leaned over and kissed her cheek, pushing her fork back into her hand. "Eat some more, you don't want me finishing all of this myself do you? You'd have to roll your boyfriend around."

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"True enough." She laughed, taking another sip before she picked up her fork again and took another bite of the stir fry. "I could always put you on a sled or something and let Max drag you around." As if on cue, the dog looked up at them, snorting slightly, and then went back to nomming his dinner quite happily. "Or not. I guess I'd better share with you." She turned a little so that she was facing him across the bowl of stir fry. She went to pick up a piece of meat, but somehow managed to rocket it out of the bowl into his lap. "Whoops."

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco laughed at the look Max gave them, "Yeah I don't think he was made to work that much. He's spoilt in the best possible way." He looked down from his bite as some meat landed in his lap. "Ooops?" He chuckled and reached down, picking up the piece and eating it. "Better not waste any."

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"Yeah, but now you've got grease on your pants." She laughed a little, picking up her wine again. Meanwhile, Max had finished his dinner, turning the bowl over in the process as was customary for him, and had found a nice cool spot to flop down and put his head over his paws to take a little nap.

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco looked down and shrugged, "The house elves'll get it out." He heard Max's bowl go over and chuckled, reaching down and getting himself some more food. "If I was a dog I would want to be Max."

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"Max has it pretty good." Pansy ate a few more bites, but was soon full. She settled back to rest her weight on one hand behind her, holding her glass of wine in another. It was soon empty, and she refilled it, glancing over her shoulder as Max snored softly. She looked up at the sky, smiling as the blue had started to change into sunset colors, fading dark on one side, glowing red on the other.

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco let her take the bottle and refill her glass, rather surprised she was drinking this much but hoping that with the food and the fact that it was only wine she wasn't going to get too inebriated. He almost finished the stirfry before deciding he had had enough and that it would be better to stop now and drink the wine before splitting the chocolate with her.

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy continued drinking her wine, and soon it started to affect her a little. She blinked more slowly and looked at Draco in a way that could nearly only be described as seductive. She took another sip and scooted forward toward him, resting her knees on his thighs as she tucked her feet under herself. "Thanks for coming home with me. Even though last night was rough, yesterday was one of the best days I've had in a long time. Full of lots of new things." Definitely lots of new things, from the heated events in the sauna she couldn't stop thinking about to the confessions in the tower that made her heart soar.

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco was just looking to the side when she moved and his eyes refocused on her, blinking himself at the look on her face. As she moved in to sit almost on him he reflexively put his hands on her hips to steady her. "I'm glad. It was one of the best, something I'll never forget." His hands moved up slightly, pulling her in closer to him.

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"I definitely won't forget any time soon." Pansy took another drink of her wine, nearly finishing off her second glass before she sat it aside and looked up at Draco again, the same look in her eye as from a few seconds ago. She was flushed from the wine now, but she didn't move any closer to him on her own, only the few inches that he had pulled her himself.

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco didn't make any moves to refill her glass, knowing she was getting closer and closer to too much. One hand moved up to brush her hair back, thumb tracing over her reddened cheek. He smiled at her and stayed where he was, waiting for her to make a move.

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy nearly giggled when Draco pushed her hair back, his thumb moving over her face. She closed the gap between them and pressed her lips to his for a second before pulling away again, just looking at him very intently as if she were waiting for something to happen. Something sort of like this.

Spoiler:

[Draco Malfoy]

Draco looked back at her when she pulled away before sliding his hand behind her neck and pulling her in for another kiss. His grip around her waist stayed motionless, not pulling her any further onto him, just pressing his lips against hers, moving slowly, waiting to see if she would respond.

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy leaned forward again to meet his lips as he put his hand behind her neck. She got a little off balance and caught herself with her hand, which accidentally landed somewhere on his lap. But that wasn't being paid attention to now, because she was concentrating on kissing him back, slipping her tongue carefully out to run across his lip before pressing into his mouth, her other hand reaching up to hold the side of his face gently.

[Draco Malfoy]

Her hand was sitting on the crease between his thigh and upper body, a few more inches over and it would be a whole different story. As she pressed in further he wrapped his arm better around her and sat up a little taller, using the wall as a stop for his back so they didn't fall over. His own tongue slipped out to trace hers and slide past to enter her mouth. He still didn't want their relationship to descend into just snogging again but he was 99% sure that this was brought on by the wine so he wasn't going to change anything now.
