〈 DIAGON ALLEY 〉

@( s ) hakyeon “Sounds great” He agreed, sighing and waiting for them to come back, until Hakyeon threw the powder and in a second they were in the Slytherin common room again. Well, since all of his friends always knew that he didn’t like Christmas, he never really got a present - but since Hakyeon was insisting on that, Chanyel should buy a present for him as well, right? But what...? What would Hakyeon like for Christmas. “Where do you pretend to cook?” He asked, raising one eyebrow as he stepped away from Hakyeon, his hands going back to his pockets - that was almost becoming an habit now. Chanyeol walked quietly out of the common room, he was sleepy and he usually wouldn’t talk a lot when all he wanted was to sleep with his precious wife, his bed. Such a beautiful and warm and comfortable wife he got, seriously, he’s a lucky man. “I’m sleepy. I will probably fall asleep in a few minutes” He mumbled, blinking lazily and the turning to look at Hakyeon.

Well, the reason behind his eager act to insist to buy C a present was pretty simple. Christmas wasn't really hakyeons favorite time of the year, and well only brought back memories of loneliness. He never got to celebrate it. While others were partying and hanging out with friends and family, N normally would choose to study that day, as like a normal day. He had the choice of going home, but grandfather were busy all the time, and even if he had free time, wouldn't it be so Christmas ish. It would only result to hakyeons despair and grandpas strict rules of home visiting. Either do chores or leave. And hakyeon chose to stay at Hogwarts. He smiled at the other. For once, he could actually celebrate it. Not in the full Christmas spirit and blablabla. Not that traditional kind, but bringing happiness and well spend a good time and create memories would be a nice wish,and he wanted to spend time with his tall friend. After all, it was considered as a holiday, and hakyeon could show how much he really loved the boy, and all the other slytherin guys went home, so he was basically alone at the dorm. Well, of course the exception of yifan, but he was mostly at the library or somewhere else. He brought up some powder, walking to a spot where he could throw it and brought the boy closer to him. " let's go home and rest, I make food while you can take nap. Is that a good plan?"he asked, not wanting to answer the earlier opinion of his hatred for Christmas. All he wanted to do now was to forget their little argue and make him happy.

@( s ) hakyeon Great, just great. Now he felt bad for acting like that. Sighing, Chanyeol let go of the other male’s wrists, not wanting to hurt him, and hesitantly wrapped his arms around the smaller’s body. “It’s fine. And I really don’t want a christmas present, Hakyeon-ah” Like if Hakyeon was going to hear him. As he waited out of the shop, Chanyeol leaned against the wall, seeing people passing by, until he saw someone - oh hell no. . Taking a deep breath, he put on a smirk on face, staring at his uncle’s figure. No, he wasn’t going to talk with him - he didn’t has the guts to do so. Never had, actually. Deep inside, he hoped the man would notice him - see how he had grow up and was now a healthy guy, how he didn’t need any of them. But the next moment, Hakyeon came out from the shop, and his attention was brought to him, with two big bags with probably his christmas present. He frowned deeply, and then took the bags. “I hate christmas. I hate christmas presents” Chanyeol said, knowing that he sounded a little mean, but that was the truth - Christmas would only bring him bad memories and he usually spent the day sleeping while everyone else was partying and everything. No, he never got any christmas present and he didn’t want it. But still, since it was from Hakyeon, he shouldn’t throw it away, right...? After following him around for a while, Chanyeol was already tired, not exactly sleepy - even though he was sure that soon he would be - but tired. He was hungry too, and he hated being hungry tired, and having no bed of his around him.

@( g ) chanyeol Aish.. One thing Hakyeon should be aware of, is that his giant of a friend/ date was pretty much stronger than he ever could be. What he said was sort of true, but hakyeon has his temperament, especially when he is freaked out, worried he might have offended the boy. “Aah.. it hurts “ he hissed lowly, maybe he was really weak? After all, the boy had a point. He wasn`t a mind reader, and Hakyeon should have been more clear. He hated himself for the lack of his social skills failed. “I-I`m sorry… I just don`t want grandpa to ruin me even more than he had done. I don`t want him to force me staying away from you…” he muttered, and dragged his hand back, instead of burying himself to his own misery when he would usually sink down to the ground, instead, he searched warmth, he searched for C`s embrace. Therefore he hugged the boy. “ Stay with me, we`re soon going home anyways. I just need to buy a few stuff and get a letter from the post office, then we`re off”. Hakyeon truly had to act calm, she didn`t notice after all, its just that… He had this hatred for attention, only because of his position in the family. People said he was the luckiest in the world. He earned wealth, status, money and recognition. Yet, they didn`t knew the horror behind everything. Ok, he had to prove to C that he wasn`t ashamed of having him around, right? He linked arms with him, putting on a smile. “Whether you like it or not ! You will get a Christmas present!” he said cutely. Hopefully the high pitched, cutie acting was something that worked, he wasn`t sure. He never really fell for it himself. It took a few minutes. Hakyeon decided to buy that huge big sized plushie C was looking at, and as well the giraffe. Basically because he had the money, and well, he found both irresistibly cute. Of course forcing the younger to wait outside, he came out with two big packages with the name of C on from N. Afterwards they finally reached the post office and he received the letter, along with a rectangular package. Of course he needed help to carry everything, but well they were finally heading back to Hogwarts, and as promised. Hakyeon would prepare dinner.

@( s ) hakyeon Chanyeol’s eyes widened as he was pushed into the alley - seriously, was that really necessary? He just raised his eyebrows at all that screaming - that was the side of Hakyeon that he really didn’t like. Somehow he reminded the taller boy of his parents, with all that screaming and all that thing for their image. Chanyeol sighed, grabbing the other male’s wrists with a tight grip, hoping that it wasn’t enough to hurt him. “Cha Hakyeon, can you stop yelling at me, please?” He asked, staring at the other male without blinking. Chanyeol took a deep breath, and then rolled his eyes. “Whatever you say, uh? I’m just trying not to be seen with you in public, isn’t this that you want? If it’s not, please tell me because I’m no mind reader” He kept staring at the other male, that was so weird. It felt like ages since he acted so, uh... Serious talking with someone. “I don’t like Christmas. I don’t want anything for Christmas” He said, sighing and then shrugging slightly. “Now can you please be clear and tell me if you want me to stay, or go back to Hogwarts? You’re seriously complicated, and your yelling made my head hurt”

@( g ) chanyeol As they came out, the space was clear for moving. Maybe it was another plushie shop nearby, and well. He still needed to get that stupid letter. He sighed, about to say something to C. But the outcome turned out horribly. “Huh? Why so upset all of sudden ?” He asked, confused and well surprised over how C was affected by this little unlucky turner. “Look, for you it might be as innocent as those little sensual moves you made earlier, but for me, it can create the outcome of my future, and probably for us as well….” He sighed, not really wanting to talk about it. “ Here, let`s go, I still need to get something from the post office before we can go home” he said, about to take the boy with him, unfortunately, C seemed to be really offended by it. Which really freaked hakyeon out. Swiftly he forcefully grabbed the boy by his sleeve, dragging him into a dark lane and slamming into a brick wall. Yes, even if he seemed to be weak, he sure had his strength from somewhere. Honed, sharpened eyes, staring directly into the eyeballs of the male, with palms strictly holding him on his place. “Listen C. I-I`m not used to this kind of relationship…. And I thought you thought the same, but it seemed that you are taking things faster than I can handle. I mean…. I- I ,… That lady knows grandfather, she knows me… I`M A ING HEIR OF A POSITION I DON`T EVEN AM SURE OF I CAN HANDLE EITHER; BUT I AM FORCED TO NOT RUIN IT; THEREFORE I CAN`T LET THEM FIND OUT ABOUT US OR GRANDFATHER WILL FORBID ME FROM ALL GOOD IN LIFE !! HE WILL FORBID ME FOR NEVER SEEING YOU AGAIN AND I DON`T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN!” He growled at the others face, afraid, worried that people around them might hear them, hopefully they didn`t, still. He had to make C realize how dangerous it actually was, and the risk of falling in love with this boy was even further that he could go. “Please don`t act like a sassy baby and just tell me what you wish for Christmas, I just want us to be alone and eat food right now” his voice cracked, almost in a frustration which brought him to almost shed tears. He hated when people shown him a cold shoulder. And he didn`t wanted C to be offended, he didn`t wanted to hurt the boy. Please understand C, that I love you.

@( s ) hakyeon Chanyeol soon turned around to see the woman talking with Hakyeon, tilting his head. Were they friends? She looked a little old, but who knows. He soon smiled brightly, walking over then and wanting to say hi - after all he was a sociable person, but before he could do so, he felt someone grabbing his wrist and pulling him out of the store. Chanyeol frowned deeply, he wanted to talk with that lady too, maybe she was nice... But still, what made him frown even more was what the other just said. “If you don’t wanna be seen with me, then why did you brought me here?” He raised one eyebrows, burying his hands deep down his pant’s pockets and making sure to don’t walk too close to Hakyeon. “Well, fine, then. You won’t be seen with me” He said, furrowing his eyebrows and then shrugging, not making any eyecontact and trying to look cold - until his stomach screamed for food again. He was still hungry, and he needed food - well, maybe he could go eat something and then go back to Hogwarts and sleep. That seemed like the perfect plan, really. And Hakyeon didn’t want to be seen with him, right? So he probably wants to go shopping alone.

@( g ) chanyeol “Pff… Just be careful ok! I don`t want anyone to see us” It sounded harsh, but it was for their best. He noticed that the younger poked a teddy. Did he liked teddy`s more? Maybe he should ask, or would it be too obvious? “Uhm…” he poked the boy on his shoulder. “ Is there anything you like here? Or should be go somewhere else to look?” It was soon Christmas. Yet, Hakyeon needed to find something for himself, however, he didn`t really wanted much this year. Actually, he wanted C, that’s all he could wish for. He looked down, lurking around without any notice as he bumped into an older couple. “Oh sorry, young wizard! You ok?” she asked politely. The lady was a lady around her 60`s maybe late in the years. Her smile was dominated by the crinkles, her perfume was devastating strong, making hakyeon sick of it. He just bowed down politely about to leave them by until she turned around, telling him something which grudged him, something he hoped never would happen. “ Oh my, aren`t you the heir of Mr. Cha? Cha Hakyeon? “ she asked, nearing him again, and so pinching his cheek as he was a kid. “ Such a cute young man!” she grinned, totally fascinated by the young slytherin`s presence, and all he wanted to do was to leave as fast as possible now, take C with him and leave this place. “Uhm… yeah, but I`m sorry to end this, but I have some errands to do” he apologized nicely and striked through the people, grabbing C by his wrist for so leaving as fast as possible. Aish, and he who wanted to buy him a gift. However, if someone saw them two together as close as they were, would this ruin everything.

@( s ) hakyeon “I’m a giant, I eat people as well as food” Chanyeol laughed at the other male’s reaction, shrugging and then letting go of him. “I’m just joking, sorry” He said, still laughing as they walked into the shop, looking around at all that weird stuff - animals, right? Stuffed animals, it was kind of cute, but still, why did Hakyeon wanted to buy one of these? Well, maybe Conan wanted a friend. He chuckled at that thought, stopping to stare at a few teddy bears. That was cute, and with a small smile, Chanyeol poked the bear, before shrugging and turning to look at what Hakyeon was paying to attention to - a giraffe. Weird, weird, weird. But he was already used to Hakyeon’’s weird actions, so he just walked around the shop, looking at all of that cute stuff and laughing at some ridiculous stuff. Seriously, who would want a stuffed heart wich was written: “Dumbledore loves you”? That was sick, man. After all, if Dumbledore loved him - what is actually impossible - he would hella scared, dude. After stopping and staring at the hearts for a few moments, Chanyeol continued his journey around that weird shop, until he got bored and all he wanted was to find somewhere where he could sleep. After all, what is better than sleep when you’re bored?

@( g ) chanyeol
The giraffe, maybe that will suit as a nice gift! As well with a Christmas dinner, and perhaps a letter? That would be a nice gift right? He thought, shrugging his shoulder of the shill passing him. It was sure windy outside, blowing gently lock from his hairs so elegantly to the sides. Earning the quivers from the sudden encounter of the other male, how his tongue thoroughly created a line with his tongue, the prints of his lips left on his neck, following with the nipping on his ear, with his extraordinary change of his normal deep voice, raspier than usual. The words teasing his limits of standing against his ual frustrations. What was he thinking? That it was fun doing it outside, and more importantly, in public? It was dangerous! What if someone saw them? What if some
acquaintances of grandfather saw him, or others that knew Hakyeon. Being the heir of the only man in the magic of ministry representing the Cha family, truly was like the role of a celebrity. Everyone knew him, everyone recognized him. Basically, all heirs of the magic of ministry was the future holders of the law in the wizards universe. If someone saw him, he would get in trouble, probably never have allowance to get married or even fall in love. It would ruin their family name. The boy failed in holding it back, gasping in a great surprise of the youngers actions, composing this tremendous sensitivity of pleasure underneath, this fizzy warmth softened his pants underneath. Aish so embarrassing. Why did his hormones act so untimely to this small actions. Irritated by the thought of how satisfying this was, he snarled back annoyed to the younger. “ Ey, spare that till we come home! What if someone sees us!” Personally he would love doing it, wherever C desired where to do it. As long as they were together and nothing would bother them, he could completely, undeniably give all of his dignity to him. “After all… I`m not the food!” he added, trying to put on a gentle smile of the last comment, jokingly said to the male. In the end he decided to enter the shop, taken by all the colors, this cuteness. Yet his eyes only were on the giraffe. It fit perfectly to C. He was tall, and cute. Right? Wait, did giraffes eat much? N forgot to double check the facts about this creature. Darnit!

@( s ) hakyeon Chanyeol took a bite of the food, nodding excitedly as he chewed, OMG FOOD. FINALLY. HE WAITED SO MUCH FOR THE MOMENT WHERE HIS STOMACH WOULD STOP BOTHERING HIM AND - He was just so happy for finally getting some food. He quickly ate the ddeokbeokki, his hand still around Hakyeon’s waist - it seemed just normal to him to stay so close to the boy. As they walked past a few stores, Chanyeol couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows as he eard the question, not really understanding that. “Uh? What are you talking about?” He asked dumbly, blinking for a moment, before he finally understood what Hakyeon was talking about - and seeing the other male’s face redden up was kind of funny, so with a smirk on his face, Chanyeol tightened the grip, and slowly leaned down, pressing his lips against the other male’s neck and pressing a kiss there, before slightly biting on that spot. The tall Gryffindor all the way to Hakyeon’s ear, before whispering with his voice even huskier than it usually was. “Ah, you’re asking if /this/ is okay in public?” He said, before chuckling as they suddenly stopped by a shop. He tilted his head slightly as he saw a lot stuffed animals - did Hakyeon wanted to buy one?

@( g ) chanyeol The diagonal alley, the most centered place all wizards came for shopping. It was here everyone bought their wand, schoolbooks, everything they needed for school. Hakyeon, remembered when he came alone buying his school items. Grandfather was too busy having meetings that he didn`t even bothered to say goodbye or even following him to the train station. Thinking back remembered him on his first day at school. How he was so scared to run through the bricked wall. He remembered getting encouraged by an old lady that somehow felt pity for him. She found it a shame that his family never were there for him. Hakyeon was forever grateful to that lady. He would never forget her face; she even gave him those wizards’ chocolates. He ate it so well there he sat alone at the train, reading books about Hogwarts histories and the second year’s basic spell book. Yep, he was already one step ahead even back then. So many memories, and still he felt like they were erased, that it never really happened. A sense of a hand nicely twirled around his waist, he couldn`t help but blush that they did intimating interactions in public. “You sure its ok? In public?” he whispered to the boy. A smile curled up as he directed them to a grocery shop, having a list ready of what to buy. It took maybe a few minutes for him to get all the ingredients, and on the way, he got to buy some street food on their journey. Giving a stick with spicy ddeokbeokki to his ehm.. friend or should he say boyfriend or? Wait, he didn`t truly know what to call him. Date? Anyways, he gave it to the boy, taking a bite of his own. “ Eat well” he mumbled with food in his mouth. Now all he wanted to do because they went back was maybe buying some gloves at the quidditch shop, he remembered that his grandfather stated clearly he had to buy what he needed. He also had to. Well, buy himself something he wanted. Aside from the broomstick grandpa bought him already, his grandfather gave him extra money to buy something for himself. Something he wanted. Hakyeon didn`t like that arrangement. He wanted grandfather to surprise him, to show that he cared, still, that never would happen. Never. Suddenly, the boy stopped at a shop. A shop with plushies and cards and well mostly toys. He spotted that giraffe one, glancing over at C. Maybe, maybe C wanted something for Christmas? What did he wish?

@( s ) hakyeon “Whatever” He mumbled, and shrugged, wrapping his arms around the other boy as he threw the powder down, and in a moment they were in the Diagon Alley. Chanyeol blinked, feeling a little uncomfortable because of all the dust. He sighed, turning to look around, but kept one of his arms wrapped firmly around Hakyeon’s waist, after all, he was sure that hakyeon wouldn’t mind and he liked staying like that. “So, where are we going first?” He asked, before coughing. Stupid dust! Chanyeol looked out of the windows, blinking as he saw a lot of wizards passing by, and hoping he wouldn’t find anyone he didn’t want to - after all, it would be so awkward if he ended up bumping into someone from his family. No, he didn’t even wanted to think about it. Shaking his head slightly, he turned to look at Hakyeon once again, and then down at his stomach. “I’m hungry~” He said again, grimacing. He knew he was acting like a child, but what could he do? He was hungry!
