Geranium lover, I’m live on your wire
Canapes on Thursdays: Round Deux
Chapter 7 of 9
pokeystarA second series of small bites featuring Pansy Parkinson and Harry Potter.
Harry glowered at the ballroom full of glittering sophisticates and knocked back another long swallow of his firewhisky.
Misery incarnate, he almost longed for a new Dark Lord to rise so that he could be justifiably hacked off, instead of indeterminately peevish.
Also, he was bored out of his rakishly scarred skull.
No such luck. Not even Malfoy was interested in playing evil reindeer games these days. He was far too keen on getting into his best friend’s knickers.
The swotty one.
Harry set down his tumbler carefully, signaling the house-elf minding the bar for another round. The mental picture of Ron in a frilly thong positively begged to be obliterated.
Another five minutes and then he’d blow the joint.
Not wide open, unfortunately. Hermione would not be amused if he mussed her fiance’s not-so-humble abode. Especially after his parents went to all that trouble renovating it to please her at Draco’s behest.
A grimace stole over his mouth and his eyes narrowed when he caught sight of flashing deep blue eyes, and lips a blurred “o” of crimson as she laughed at something Zabini said. They were dancing closely together, and her arms slipped up to his shoulders to encircle his neck.
As Harry watched, her arms drew him closer still.
Poor schmuck. Blaise had obviously forgotten everything he’d learned in Herbology. She had him now, ensnared in her embrace and Blaise would cease breathing before he realized he was being suffocated by those sexy, needy vines.
Devil’s Snare. Her parents had definitely named her after the wrong plant.

Can I play hero and Groupie, too (better with Severus or Lucius but I won't mind if it's Harry)
Very nice. I like how he makes her laugh.
Well, I'm sure with a bit of effort and the HUGE talent that he has (*snicker*) he should be able to convinve her not to publish the story...
Heroes and groupies sounds like great fun.
Loving these tempting mis-en-bouche morsels.
Ah, but the fox gets the grapes in the end, doesn't she?
No capes? Every self respecting super hero has a cape.
Harry's in trouble. He's met his match here
Err I'm not sure I understand what Ron in a thong has to do with Hermione's and Draco's (engagement) party?
Anyway, I like it all the same.
Maybe if she tried to just be herself without any of her usual tricks he may be more interested.
Nice turn of events!
It's so sad. I feel for him, them. Because she must be as devatated.
Well, I suppose they found a way to avoid getting bored by the rain... *wink*
Does that mean Harry like it raw? I've never imagined him to be like that.
