part II
It was the evening of day three and instead of meeting up with Tao and snog the hell out of each other, here Sehun was, sitting in the cold yard and playing a round of wizard chess with his one and only Gryffindor friend Kim Jongin because apparently Zitao had a lot of Potions' homework to do which Sehun had too but he really couldn't care less.
“So you and Zitao, heh?” Jongin asked, not really grinning but Sehun knew that he wanted to.
“Yea,” Sehun said back, “Bishop F3.”
“Hate that guy,” Jongin murmured under his breath but Sehun had heard him, looking up and exhaling loudly.
“Seriously, you too?”
“Why, who else hates him?”
“Baekhyun does. And he doesn't even have a reason!”
“I'm pretty sure he has one,” Jongin answered, “Queen 5E”
“You sure? That's where you want your Queen? Bishop 5E!”
“Oh man!” Jongin made a face at Sehun who was grinning at taking the broken Queen pieces from the chessboard. “Well, I know I have one.”
“One what?”
“Reason to hate Zitao,” Jongin answered, calming down a little from the shock of having lost his strongest chess piece and giving the next instruction to the game. “We were in the same flying class back in our first year. He knocked me off of my broom every-single-lesson! Never apologized.”
“Oh come on,” Sehun hit Jongin across the shoulder, “That was like four years ago. And I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose.”
“Doesn't matter. Still won't like him.”
“Well, then don't. After all I am the one who has to like him.”
“Right,” and now Jongin was grinning for the first time, moving his eyebrows in a ridiculous manner. “so... what's he like?”
“Tao?” Sehun asked innocently, not even thinking about going into the direction Jongin obviously wanted to go with this conversation, “He's cute and very funny. I like the way he talks, it makes me happy.”
“Wow, sounds booooring.”
“Yea well, at least I have taste,” Sehun argued, thinking about Jongin's unrequited love that has been going on even longer than Sehun's, “You're in love with a little grumpy man.”
“Kyungsoo is the best!”
“Kyungsoo is violent!” Sehun shot back. “He always hits me even though we're not even close enough for it to get through as friendly punches.”
“So what, can't handle a bit of a beating, what kind of man are you?”
“What kind of man are you, falling for a guy like that?”
“At least Kyungsoo doesn't have to take pictures of his giant nose every two seconds and post them with ridiculous comments underneath that have absolutely nothing to do with the actual picture.” And Sehun really couldn't say anything about that because he had noticed that the amount of selfies Tao took of himself was quite impressive in a not so good way. “Hah, you know I'm right!” Jongin shouted in delight after Sehun hadn't been able to shot back one of Kyungsoo’s bad traits fast enough. “But seriously now, how is Zitao? In bed, you know?”
“How would I know, we've been going out for three days.”
And suddenly Jongin was doing that weird thing with his eyebrow again while talking in a deep voice, “Is he the horny and begging type? I bet he is.” He sounded absolutely ridiculous.
“Again: I don't know!”
“I'm sure he likes getting slapped on the ass. Real hard. Probably has a daddy kink too. You should make him call you daddy.”
“Ok. Could you please stop talking about my boyfriend's kinks and anyway, Tao does not have a daddy kink!”
“How would you know, you've been going out for three days”, Jongin shot back, imitating the way Sehun had said it and grinning hard as he noticed that Sehun was starting to get kind of pissed off. “That's what you get for insulting my baby boy.”
“I should tell Kyungsoo that you call him that. He'd rip your balls off.”
“I don't even think I would mind that,” Jongin answered suddenly seeming to be in deep thoughts “Because you know, he'd have to touch them first before ripping so... yea, that'd be kinda hot.”
“You're sick!” Sehun spit out in disgust, “I can't believe people actually think you're that innocent little boy when you're really dreaming about some short twit ripping out your balls.”
“Shut up,” Jongin said back and then continued daydreaming which Sehun took as a sign that it was time for him to go.
**
Sehun and Zitao were alone in the library, in the middle of the night, snogging like crazy when suddenly Sehun felt a hand approaching his crotch. He tried to stop it half way, entwining his fingers with Zitao's but the boy was kind of eager in getting his hands down Sehun's pants so suddenly there was his other hand approaching and Sehun had to separate their lips and step back.
“Don't Tao,” he said out of breath, not looking the boy in the eyes. He knew that he was going to have to explain himself which gave him a little of a headache because he couldn't possibly tell Zitao the truth about how he didn't want to go any further when Tao was not gonna remember and Sehun honestly didn't think that he would even get the words I am not ready yet out of his mouth because damn, he could not have been more ready plus he was such a bad liar.
“It's ok,” Tao said immediately, though, Sehun looking up at him in surprise “I mean, I know this is going pretty fast... so it's ok if you don't want to yet. I can wait. It's just that I... I don't know, you make me forget that we haven't even been together for a week and should probably not be doing any of this. It's weird.”
“I bet,” Sehun murmured but shook his head when Zitao said that he hadn't understood him. “I said thank you. Just don't misunderstand. I really like you and I want to do this with you but only in like three days, you know.” When the potion would lose it's effect and Tao would be able to think straight.
“Three days?” Tao asked, looking kind of confused at first but then grinning “You have some kind of schedule?”
“No?” Sehun answered and leaning his head to one side, playing the cutie card which seemed to work as Tao started to laugh, pulling Sehun closer while hands fisted in his shirt. Sehun felt like he was in a dream that was way too good to be true - like everytime he was with Zitao - and there was that huge fear of waking up soon but then he felt soft lips against his earlobe.
“I really don't understand,” Zitao whispered into Sehun's ear, looking him in the eyes afterwards “Why did I not notice you before?”
Sehun suddenly had a lump in his throat, trying to swallow it away hard, “I don't know.” He felt like a terrible liar and was sure that Zitao was gonna notice soon.
“I mean, I knew you existed and I had heard your name before because we have a few classes together and our friends know each other but... it was like that one morning I woke up and saw you at the breakfast table and you were so perfect.”
“I am not perfect,” Sehun answered. No he really wasn't. If he was perfect he wouldn't be so selfish and tell Tao what was going on. He had been in love with him for over a year but couldn't even bring himself to wait for another week to approach him. Because he was selfish.
“You are perfect for me.” and then Tao kissed him again and Sehun didn't even have the chance to disagree. He was glad, through, because he was really anything but perfect for Tao but the boy would probably never even realize that because in three days all he'd have left was the memory of seven very empty days and a few very confusing pictures on his instafram while Sehun would be the only one to have all of those memories and he'd make sure to treasure them and push them into the deepest and most precious part of his heart so to never forget them. “We are perfect together.”
Sehun wanted to cry. But even more than that he wanted those words to be true. And the knowledge that they weren't hurt too much to bear.
**
“You can't be serious,” Baekhyun shouted out loud and Sehun rolled his eyes, “You can't be fricking serious, Oh Sehun!”
“Is it just me or did we have this exact same conversation before?” Sehun murmured instead of trying to shut his best friend up because that wouldn't work anyway.
“I can't believe you would say yes to something like that!” and apparently Baekhyun wasn't the only one who thought so because Chanyeol and Jongdae who were sitting with them on the sofa in the common room were just looking at Sehun like he was the biggest idiot on the planet and was about to get himself killed.
“You can't go to the Hufflepuff house! Breaking into the library at night is bad enough but actually sleeping over at another house? That's forbidden!” Baekhyun said, horror in his voice and Sehun considered smacking a pillow to his face because he was making such a scene.
“No one will find out, ok? Tao's got some kind of secret path.”
“Don't be so naive, the bitch is bullshitting you! He just wants in your pants and will lead you in some kind of dark alley and then have his way with you! And you can't escape from Zitao ever, he knows Wushu which according to Joonmyeon is some kind of muggle Avada Kedavra!” and normally Sehun would get mad at Baekhyun for saying such stuff about Tao but Sehun was too tried and sad because this was their last evening together and all he could think about was waking up the next morning and knowing that Tao was not feeling the same way about him any more and that there'd be no more sweet good morning kisses or fingers touching his neck ever so lightly while snuggling. He looked at himself in the mirror and sighing.
“I look so boring. You guys could so something with my hair?” he said, ignoring the railing Baekhyun next to him “some sort of colour... someone got a nice spell for that?`”
“I do,” Jongdae suddenly said grinning and had already whipped out his wand when Sehun jumped out of the way screaming.
“No, don't! Not you, Jongdae! I don't want to end up bald. Or dead!”
“Hey, I just suck at potions, I'm good with my wand, though,” and then Chanyeol was grinning and Baekhyun couldn't help but join when Jongdae noticed what he had just said and made a seducing face “If you know what I mean.”
“I do but that's not the kind of wand-skills needed here!”
“You sure, I could just take it out and do all kinds o-”
“I'm outta here. Thanks for the help,” and Sehun just ignored Baekhyun's warnings and screams before he left the common room, hair as boring as ever, and made his way to the Hufflepuff house.
**
Baekhyun had been right. As much as it hurt Sehun to admit that, apparently there was no secret path to the Hufflepuff house and Zitao had just locked Sehun and himself inside some room - that Sehun thought to be the Room Of Requirements of which he'd only heard rumours up until then, - starting to kiss Sehun like there was no tomorrow - which very ironically there wasn't.
“Wait,” Sehun started to separate himself from Tao but the boy was strong and atypically horny “Tao wait, three days remember?”
“Yea but,” he started, lips not leaving Sehun's skin as he sucked on his right earlobe, “it's like 10pm so... two more hours to go. No difference, right?”
But there was a difference.
“Tao, no!” Sehun said once more and this time he pushed the boy away from him, against the locked door, and Tao gasped in shock.
“What is wrong with you?”
“I just don't want to do this now,” Sehun said desperately. He couldn't explain, he just wanted Zitao to understand. “Please Tao. Tomorrow... if you still want to be with me tomorrow, let's do it then. I will even skip classes so we can fuck. I am serious. Not today, though.”
Zitao was looking at him confused and disappointed. He obviously wasn't going to accept that condition without any explanation. Sehun was about to touch Tao's cheek and apologize for pushing him when he saw the look is his boyfriend's eyes change.
“No, you know what Sehun?” Tao said, unlocking the door behind him “You come to me tomorrow because I am not making the first step again just to be pushed away and told off to wait because of two ridiculous hours!” And Sehun was about to tell him that it doesn't work that way because it was Zitao who had to want it but Tao had already stepped back “And if you don't come to me this time, I am taking this as if you are breaking up with me,” he looked at Sehun once more and suddenly Sehun could see tears in Tao’s eyes, “and I hope that won't be the case.”
**
What was he supposed to do. What was he supposed to do. He had spent the night tossing and turning in his bed, asking himself that question while not being able to stop thinking about what Tao was doing, if he was sleeping or if he was awake, slowly falling out of love with him. Would he wake up the next morning, check his instagram and wonder why the hell he had uploaded so many pictures of himself hugging and kissing some Slytherin guy throughout the week and wonder what happened? Would he be furious and approach Sehun the next morning at the breakfast table to ask what the hell he had done to him? And if Sehun told him the truth, would there be a chance that he'd forgive Sehun and fall in love with him anyway?
“Would you get up already, I am not skipping breakfast because you're love-sick like some stupid girl!” Baekhyun shouted up to Sehun who was still in his bunk bed, face turned to the wall.
“Who's fault is this,” Sehun said back, turning around “If you could just mind your own business, Baekhyun!”
“I am your best friend so you sulking and acting like a pre-teen girl is my business! Now get your fat ass down here and put on your nicest robes.”
“I only have one pair of robes.”
“Then put them on especially nicely and maybe I will tell you a secret.”
“What secret?” Sehun asked even though he was pretty sure that it wouldn't be of any interest to him at all.
“It's about Zitao.”
“What would you know about Tao,” Sehun just whispered back uninterested, heart already hurting at the mere sound of his name when he suddenly felt someone tugging on the fabric of his pants hard.
“Get down here already!” Baekhyun shouted “Don't be such a baby about it and go get your breakfast and maybe you will see that nothing is as bad as you think it is.”
“How could it not be that bad,” Sehun said back, feeling like shit, “Tao doesn't like me any more! He just woke up to check how many likes he got on his instaflam over night and then discover pictures of his beautiful self kissing some boring guy like me and he will hate me and then he will approach me angrily and I will have to tell him how I made him drink that potion even though I didn't and how I took advantages of the situation which I did and shouldn't have and he will hate me so much and I will never be able to kiss him again and urgh this is all your fault!” Sehun whined, ending up kicking Baekhyun's arms away angrily and devastated “I am never going to leave this bed again!”
He was still looking at the wall on the other side of the bed when he heard Baekhyun sigh, a sound of him giving up.
“Ok, this will probably get me beaten up sooner than I wanted to but anyway”, the boy started and Sehun couldn't help but wonder what kind of rubbish his best friend was talking about again, “Listen Sehun. You remember how you really didn't like the idea about giving Zitao that potion when I first told you about it?”
“Ehm yea!” Like he would ever forget that.
“You remember how you insulted me in the library when I made that proposal and you didn't like it?”
“I remember, what are you getting at?” Sehun asked turning around to look down at Baekhyun now who was having a troubled look on his face making Sehun seriously wonder what was going on.
“Well, and you know how I always pretend that I'm alright when I'm really not, and get back at everybody who's been an ass to me without any consideration of the other person's feelings?”
“Yes?”
“Well... let's just say I did that again”, he started to explain, taking a few steps towards the door, “And let's just say that you bringing up Yifan made me so mad that I cancelled my plans of helping you with that potion.”
“Yea, you didn't, though,” Sehun said confused.
“Yea well, let's just say I did. And let's just say that that would mean... there really never was a potion in the first place.”
Sehun was still lying down when he looked at Baekhyun startled, not quite sure what to do with that information at first. He sat up and looked at his best friend some more, trying to figure out if he had just told him the truth.
“No potion?” Sehun then asked, looking at Baekhyun who was having that very weird and conflicted smile on his face, one hand on the door handle.
“...Yes.”
“No potion?” Sehun repeated because he needed to hear this at least another 100 times before actually getting what Baekhyun had just told him.
“Yes, no potion. But before you get mad,” Baekhyun started holding up a hand, “think about what this actually means. So Zitao really did like you after all! That's great, right? And you could say that this is all thanks to me.” Baekhyun smiled but Sehun couldn't really smile back because he was still way too confused and shocked to even function properly.
“No potion?”
“Yea?” and then Baekhyun made that little sound in the back of his throat when he saw Sehun flinch a little as the realization hit him hard.
“NO POTION?!”
“I guess I will get going then,” and that's when Baekhyun stormed out of the room followed by a furious Sehun who had jumped from his bunk bed and was chasing the screaming boy through their whole house, cursing at him and threatening to beat him up with a stick as soon as he'd find one.
“You have no idea how miserable I felt those past few days!” Sehun shouted desperate, stopping in front of a table, Baekhyun having run to the other side of it and making sure that Sehun couldn't get any closer. “I really thought that all of this was fake! I thought that this was over!”
“I'm sorry, ok?” Baekhyun started, seeming to mean it, “I wanted to tell you at first but I was still so angry at you and then everything was working out fine between you two and I thought that it'd be alright if I tell you a little later an-”
“It wasn't!”
“I can see that now!” Baekhyun screamed back in panic as Sehun tried to reach over the table to grab Baekhyun by the collar but failing. “Calm down, Sehun! I know I should have told you and I''m really sorry but don't you have to get to Zitao now and fuck him or something?”
And only then did Sehun remember, despite the still burning rage inside of him, that Tao was probably feeling miserable and that he was waiting for Sehun to come to him and tell him that they were alright and that every second of waiting made him feel so horrible. Sehun couldn't let his boyfriend feel that way because of him.
“I do,” he realized and turned around to leave for his room to hurry up and get dressed and find Tao.
“Yes, you do!” Baekhyun shouted after him eager, “Go and fuck him! You can do it!”
“Shut up, Baekhyun! I'm not done with you yet, just wait till I get back!” Sehun made clear and then hurried up to get to his room.
**
Sehun was late for breakfast and almost everyone was gone already, probably on their ways to their classes, but Tao was still sitting there, most likely having waited for him, and the moment their eyes met Tao froze on the spot as Sehun started approaching him. Sehun had actually planned on sitting down across from the boy but Tao was already standing up when he arrived at the Hufflepuff table, fiddling with his fingers nervously.
“Before you say anything,” Tao started, seeming really troubled, “I'm sorry about yesterday. I realized that I was basically forcing myself on to you and it doesn't even matter what reason you have, I shouldn't have done that and I will wait for as many days or hours you want me to, but please!” and all of a sudden Tao looked so miserable, it broke Sehun's heart, “Just don't break up with me.”
“Oh god, don't say that,” Sehun answered getting closer.
Somehow he was relieved even though his boyfriend was feeling like crap and so was he for having gotten the two of them in such a situation but oh god, Tao was really still in love with him! Sehun hadn't really doubted Baekhyun's words this time around, but since the guy was impossible you never really knew for sure. There had still been the slight possibility of all of the stuff about not giving Zitao the potion being total bullshit which would have been sooo much worse. So seeing that Tao remembered was everything that counted .
He pulled Zitao towards him, hands on his hips and really wanting to kiss him but holding back for now “Why would I break up with you when I love you that much,” and he really didn't care that there were still a few people around when he kissed his boyfriend on the lips hard, it going way faster than planned but oh what the hell. He felt Zitao's arms closing around his neck, pressing their bodies together harder. A few seconds into their kiss, he felt something warm and wet drop on his cheek but he didn't want to open his eyes because he couldn't imagine anything worse than seeing Tao cry because of him “I love you, Tao and I'm so sorry for being all weird about postponing sleeping with you but I really thought I had my reasons which turned out that I didn't after all...”
“What do you mean?” Tao asked still holding onto Sehun with both arms and Sehun then decided to tell him what had been going on. He told him about how he had thought that they had given Zitao the potion to make him fall in love with him because he'd been in love with him for over a year but had never had the balls to actually do something about it. When Sehun expected Tao to get mad at him for having lied to him this whole time or taking advantage of him, his boyfriend ended up laughing, though, pressing another long and passionate kiss to his lips.
“You're not mad?” Sehun asked, a smile of relief on his lips.
“No, I was just thinking that for once that idiot Baekhyun really did a good job.”
“You think so? I'm still mad at him,” Sehun said even though he couldn't really feel anything besides utter bliss at that moment.
“Well, we kind of got together thanks to him, didn't we? He made Jongdae tell me about you after all.”
“He did?” Sehun asked when Tao stepped away a bit and started explaining.
“Well, you know how I approached you that morning all of a sudden? That's because Jongdae told me that he thought that you had a crush on me and that you were really cute and I should talk to you and see how you were doing and that the way you ate sausages looked really ridiculous and that made me kind of curious so yea... I guess Baekhyun was behind that as well, wasn't he?”
“I guess so,” Sehun answered and it did make sense.
Maybe he'd have to think about beating up Baekhyun again.
They spent a few more minutes kissing and hugging and Sehun telling Tao how nice he looked and Tao saying I know when the two of them realized that they were the only ones left in the great hall and that they'd be late to their class which was very bad.
“I guess we could skip it and... you know,” Tao started, grinning at Sehun who was already grinning back and realizing that now there was really nothing that still stood between the two of them.
“I guess we could do that, yea.” That's when Tao tugged him by the arm, leading them to his house and this time they were really going to go inside Hufflepuff. Sehun felt the portraits watch them run through the corridors and judge them while entering the dorms when they should be in their classes studying, but he really couldn't care less at that moment because oh god, he was about to have sex with his boyfriend!
Tao was already taking of his robes, urging Sehun to hurry and do the same when they fell into Zitao's bed and Sehun realized that hee hadn't even had the time to look around the house once. Honestly though, he'd rather see Tao naked and he'd have time to look around Hufflepuff in the future.
They were taking off each others clothes, giggling when Tao got stuck in his pants and Sehun had to get off the bed and pull really hard. And then all of a sudden, Zitao was naked, grinning at Sehun who was about to take of his boxers when he realized how fricking lucky he was and that this was the best day of his life and instead of beating up Baekhyun later he should buy him a bouquet of flowers and make sure that the boy got back together with Yifan because Sehun knew that Baekhyun was still secretly in love with him and he'd have to talk to Tao about that later and get him to help hook the two of them up again, but first of all there was a naked Tao waiting for him.
And as soon as he had taken off the last piece of fabric covering his body, he was on top of Tao by his arms and both of them were touching places while kissing and it felt so right, Sehun was going crazy. He was still smiling in that situation which made Tao smile back and they must have looked totally ridiculous and Sehun thought that this would probably make the worst porn movie ever - yes, Sehun knew what porn was, Jongdae had made them watch a muggle porn once.
“Wait,” Tao suddenly said when shit was about to get real and Sehun had gotten up to sit between his boyfriend's spread-apart legs.
“Oh god Tao, please don't tell me you feel like it's the right time to take a selfie now,” Sehun said, already fearing that Tao was about to get his phone out of his pants on the floor which would require them to get up and Sehun was really not ok with that.
“What, no! But now that you say it...”
“Tao!”
“Ok ok, I just wanted to ask if you actually know what you're doing there,” Tao pointed between their bodies and Sehun didn't really know how to answer that. He'd never had sex before but he knew how to do it because ok let's be real for a second, he'd seen more than one of those porn movies and non of them had been straight so he felt pretty much like an expert.
“Don't worry,” he assured Zitao and got his wand ready, using two quick spells to make some condoms and some lube appear right where his stretched-out hand was.
“Do I want to know who taught you those spells?” Tao asked half smiling half making a face and Sehun laughed at that.
“I don't know. Remember Kim Jongin?”
“The Gryffindor I used to kick off of his broom in our first year because he pissed me off?”
“Oh my god, you did do it on purpose!”
“Of course, I did. He was better at flying and looked cuter than me back then, what the hell!”
“Oh believe me, you are waaay cuter than Kim Jongin. He's kinda disgusting to be honest,” Sehun admitted, having to think about their ball-ripping conversation when Tao suddenly grasped him by the ass with both hands and pulled him down towards him, making Sehun gasp in shock as their hard dicks were pressed against each other.
“I believe you, but how about we stop talking about weird Gryfindors now and continue where we left off?” and before Sehun could even say anything they were kissing and touching again, Jongin more than forgotten when Sehun started jerking Tao off with one hand while opening the cap of the lube with the other.
“Hurry,” Tao moaned, eyes following Sehun's fingers and the moment he slowly pressed them to that place, moving them inside slightly and Tao was making such sexy noises, Sehun felt himself getting dangerously horny, not sure if he could wait much longer. “Come on,” Tao murmured after a few minutes though, seeming ready for the next step and he really didn't have to tell him twice.
When Sehun entered him, after having successfully put on a condom for the first time in his life, he gasped at the feeling of such warmth surrounding him and having Tao squirm underneath him with the pressure of fitting something that big inside of him.
“Oh god,” Sehun moaned out loud when he was finally all the way inside, waiting a bit to let his boyfriend adjust to the completely new sensation.
Only moving a bit at first, Sehun leaned down with his arms placed next to Tao's head, moving his hips in a slow but steady rhythm. He wanted to go faster but he felt like Tao wasn't quite there yet and he would come too fast anyway, so he continued rocking against him slowly for a few minutes until he felt Tao's hands on his hips, urging him to get faster. And when he did, he found himself unable to control himself any longer. He was getting faster and his thrust were getting harder and Tao was suddenly leaning forward to place his hands on Sehun's ass again and push him forward some more so the friction between their bodies was getting totally out of hand.
The moment Tao came, back bending and hands grabbing Sehun's ass hard, he was making such sexy sounds, not even trying to keep his voice down, and all Sehun could do was watch Tao in ecstasy under him, his face making expressions he'd never seen before and hoping that he'd get to see them a lot more in the future.
It didn't even take Sehun a minute to come after that, spurting his cum inside the condom while still inside of Tao, thrusting inside of him until the last drop was sucked out of him just to move back slowly, making Tao whine as he pulled out the tip and finally got the condom off of him. He lay down next to his boyfriend, both of them still out of breath and completely exhausted.
And normally this would have made Sehun turn a dark shade of pink but because he really couldn't care less at that moment and was happier than he'd ever been, he leaned forward, pressing an opened-mouth kiss to Tao's lips and looking him deep in the eyes before saying “I loved watching you come. Let me see that again soon, alright?”
Zitao was looking back at him, hands on his hips when he answered with a grin on his face “And I hope with soon you mean now because I'm not done yet!”
“That's fine with me,” Sehun grinned back, pulling the blanked over their heads before being pulled down by a giggling Tao and realizing that this was real.
So fricking real.
*
The day Kyungsoo found out that Jongdae had sold the potion to some random guy instead of giving it to Sehun like promised was a very bloody day. Jongdae would have had been admitted to the hospital wing if it hadn't been for head boy Joonmyeon passing by and shaking his head at the bloody mess that was Jongdae who was lying on the floor in the middle of the hallway, and murmured some simple spells to heal his wounds.
“You should have let him suffer for a bit longer,” Kyungsoo said, throwing the stick he had used to beat Jongdae up with away and look at the head boy “I spent hours on that fricking potion and he just sold it to who knows whom.”
“Kyungsoo, you know that you're not allowed to make those kind of potions and give them to students. You should be glad that I’m not reporting you.”
“Well, thanks a lot Mr. Head Boy,” Kyungsoo murmured, still angry, “And you!” he pointed at Jongdae who had just stood up and was looking kind of scared “you better not do that again or next time I’ll kill you.”
“No, you won't!” Joonmyeon shouted after the furious Kyungsoo who had already disappeared around a corner.
Sehun and Tao had watched it happen and where now utterly confused as to why Jongdae was suddenly laughing nervously.
“What's wrong,” Sehun asked and Jongdae scratched his head.
“I just hope he never finds out whom I sold this potion to,” he said with a weird twist to his smile.
“As long as it's not Jongin, you'll be al-” but then Sehun saw Jongdae swallow hard and Sehun gasped “You sold it to Jongin? Are you aware that he is going to use it on Kyungsoo?”
“Yes, that's why I'm worried.”
“Oh my god, your days are counted!” Tao added, more amused than actually worried while holding on to Sehun's hand “You could not have been more stupid, Jongdae!”
“Says the guy who probably spend the whole of last night sucking on someone's dick!”
And now Tao was grinning besides Sehun “You mean, says the guy who can wushu your ass into oblivion!”
“Don't wushu him, that's not nice, Zitao,” Joonmyeon said before Sehun's Charms teacher suddenly appeared out of nowhere and called the students into his class.
“Gotta go,” Sehun said with a smile on his face, pressing a kiss to Tao's lips and telling a classmate so safe a seat for him.
“See each other at lunch?” Tao asked but Sehun had to shake his head, as hard as it was.
“I still need to talk to Baekhyun. He's been avoiding me for the last two days. I think he's still convinced that I'm angry at him for the potion thing and want to beat him up. I have to find him and apologize.”
“And thank him,” Tao added, pressing another long kiss to Sehun's lips before the boy nodded and let go of Tao's hand reluctantly. “See you at dinner, Hun.”

Just as he had though, Baekhyun was seriously trying to avoid him. Sehun spent his whole lunch time searching for the boy who was nowhere to be found. Not in the great hall, not in the common room of their house nor his dorm room. He was about to give up when he looked out of the windows of their common room and saw the Hufflepuff's Quidditch team practice for their upcoming game against Gryffindor. And there was Yifan, their beater, avoiding a Bludger at the last second.
“Maybe...,” Sehun thought and made his way outside, letting his eyes skim through the crowd that was watching them practice as soon as he had arrived. He found his best friend in the corner of the last row, kind of hidden and eyes fixed on Yifan.
“Baekhyun,” Sehun said after he had successfully approached him without getting noticed - which hadn't been that hard since Baekhyun had been unusually concentrated on watching the practice take its turn.
“Sehun,” the boy said back and for a moment Sehun thought that Baekhyun might try to run away but he didn't because he was probably aware that this would attract all the attention, there being a chance that Yifan would notice him and Sehun knew better than anything else that Baekhyun didn't ever indent for Yifan to find out about his still lingering feelings. God knew why.
“I've been looking for you.”
“Well, you found me.”
“Made that quite hard,” Sehun started but he wasn't going to talk about that. He had come to tell Baekhyun that he was sorry for overreacting. One the one hand, Baekhyun had done something stupid and everything could have turned out really bad for Sehun, but on the other hand, it hadn't and everything was perfect now and Sehun really had to thank him for that. “I wanted to talk to you. About everything that happened between me and Tao.”
“I'm sorry, ok?” Baekhyun said tired, meaning it, though, but Sehun shook his head.
“No, I'm sorry. And thankful. I'd still be secretly in love with him, watching him from afar, if it wasn't for you. You methods may have been fricking insane but they worked so... thank you. And I won't beat you up, promise!” Sehun added grinning and he was so glad to finally see the boy smile back at him before standing up.
“I'm glad to hear that,” he said as they both started to walk down the seats, getting back to the castle as lunch time was about to be over and non of them had had anything to eat yet. Also, Sehun was really hoping to get one more sight of his boyfriend to share some kisses and make him whisper Hun Hun in his ear because somehow Sehun loved it when he called him that. “And I am also glad that you learned something important from that,” Baekhyun smiled again, looking Sehun in the eyes.
“Not to hide my feelings and trust in myself?” Sehun asked smiling but then he saw Baekhyun make a confused face.
“No?” the boy said, a mocking tone to his voice before grinning, “That Baekhyun is always right!”
“Oh shut up!”
