Broomstick Riding-for Rose
A/N: Happy four month anniversary, love!! I asked what your favorite things to read about are and you said Hogwarts AUs and Fake Dating AUs so here is your present!
Roman's POV:
It had been a long summer break...it seemed to drag on for forever and that was surprising. Out of their friend group Roman was one of the last people who anyone thought would miss school...but Virgil wasn't at his house..nor did he live near him. Virgil was a pureblood and while his parents weren't as crazy as some...he wasn't allowed to visit muggleborn or halfblood friends over breaks. So when he got a note from Virgil asking him to meet on the Quidditch Pitch after classes he practically ran there.
"Hey, Princey....you got here quick. You had potions last...and it took you half the time it normally takes to get here. Anyway, I need your help." Virgil was wearing athletic robes, holding one of the school brooms in his hand as he looked nervously at Roman.
"You hate flying. I'm not going to help you do something that caused you to have a panic attack in first year." His heart sunk a little. They went a on a few dates before summer break and wrote each other a LOT of letters, but Virgil didn't seem to want to talk about that. Roman turned and started to walk back to the castle only to feel Virgil grab his hand and squeezed it tightly.
"Please? My parents want me to try out...and you're the only one who I trust." Damnit! Virgil knew how to push his buttons and get him to agree to anything.
"Fine. But we're not using that broom." Roman let go of Virgil's hand and pulled out his wand, muttering "Accio.." under his breath and a few moments later his nimbus 2005 appeared in his hand. Roman let it go and it hovered a few inches off the ground. "There..get on."
Virgil backed away, eyeing the broom and then Roman. "What'll you ride?"
Roman nodded towards his broom. "That one. We're riding together. You need to be more comfortable with flying. I won't have you fall off because of a panic attack."
Virgil hesitated for a few seconds and the apparently decided it was safer to get on with Roman than on a broom by himself and got on, gripping the broom handle tight enough it made his knuckles turn white.
Roman got on behind Virgil, looping his arms through Virgil's and resting his hands on top of Virgil's. "You have to relax." Then they were flying higher in the air and staying in one place until Virgil let out a deep breath and his shoulders slumped a little. Then they were slowly flying around the perimeter of the pitch. "So..what do you remember from flying lessons?"
Virgil sighed. "Everything. I've been reading all the books I could find and notes I took on flying to be ready..."
Roman grinned and kissed Virgil's cheek. "Excellent! Then we can skip the basics and start to learn a few tricks!"
Virgil looked up at Roman, eyes wary. "What kind of tricks...?" His cheeks were a pretty shade of light pink either from the wind, the kiss or both.
"Trust me."
A hour later they were flying around the pitch, doing spins, speeding up only to stop quickly or do sharp turns. Virgil was leaning against Roman's chest, a relaxed smile on his face as he looked out at the scenery.
"So, Virgil. Why don't you tell me the real reason you wanted to fly." Roman could feel Virgil tense in his arms and pull away slightly.
"I don't know what you mean. I told you! My paren-"
"Yeah yeah..you're parents are making you try out for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, but they don't need any new members and you know that. So you would've told your parents."
"Fine! It's ridiculous. I wanted to be alone with you and the only way I knew how to do that was to get you up in the air. Then no one would bother us."
Roman laughed, smiling at Virgil. "You're such a schemer..!"
Virgil huffed, frowning softly. "I hardly think it's a crime to want to spend time with my boyfriend."
Roman froze, he felt the air leave his lungs as he looked at Virgil. "Boyfriend..?"
And then they were flying towards the ground, Virgil practically flung himself off the broom and backed away from Roman as soon as it was safe enough to get off. Roman got off after him, following Virgil and effectively backing him up into the Gryffindor stands.
"I-I didn't mean boyfriend boyfriend..! I-I meant it as w-we're b-b-boys and we're f-friends..! I don't know w-why you jumped to that c-c-conclusion, b-but you're being ridiculous...!" Virgil's eyes were wide and he was looking around frantically for an escape.
Roman cupped Virgil's cheeks, the warmth from his hands hopefully warming Virgil's wind-chilled face. "That's a shame. I think we should go on another date so I can convince you to be my boyfriend. You're a keeper Virgil."
Virgil rolled his eyes and laughed breathlessly. "No. If anything I'd be a beater."
Roman snorted and leaned closer to Virgil, kissing him softly. "You're adorable."
At least once a month, the couple would meet at the Quidditch pitch and have a date. They did go one other dates, but they both agreed that they should meet where they first got together and enjoy that time together.
A/N: I hope you liked it everyone, but especially mind_writing!! I love you very much! I can't wait for another four months with you!! Kithes!!!
