Harry Potter: Veracity and Maelstrom (COMPLETED/ENDED)

ALEX


Alex stared at Eliza. He couldn't get that image of her out of his head, when he had been loopy on love potion. "Yea. That amortentia stuff is just lingering a bit." He admitted.

"Sure." She stepped forward, and gently moved her hand forward. "You seem like an incredible person, Azra'el."
 
"Was my antidote that bad?" Eliza frowned, pondering. "I know it wasn't my best, but it can't have been that terrible, can it?" She turned to regard Alex, gently taking his face with a hand, examining his eyes. "Hmm..." Her eyes roamed his face, before she pulled back. "Sorry, I didn't think it would be that terrible." She sighed, placing her head in her hands.
 
ALEX


Alex's face tingled where she touched, and he reached out unconsciously to touch her hand. He cleared his throat awkwardly, pulling his hand back. "Sorry." He muttered, clenching his fists to stop himself from doing stomaching he'd regret.
 
Azra'el felt as if his face was on fire he was blushing and before he knew it he took her hand and began to whisper his at his snake. Suddenly the snake vanished into his clothing and a moment later Lilith's head came out of his sleeve and she made her way up Evelyn's arm to her head. "Just stay calm and she won't bite you." He let out a muffled laugh.
 
"Hmm? Oh, no it's fine." Eliza was obviously distracted, mulling over her ingredients. She sighed, feeling ridiculous for feeling this despaired about an antidote. She quickly wiped away a single tear, hoping Alex hadn't noticed.


"Alright." Evelyn's smile grew, her hand squeezing Azra'el's slightly. "Can I pet her? Would she mind much?"
 
ALEX


"Are you okay?" Alex had seen a single tear escape her eye and touched her cheek without thinking before wrenching his hand free. "Damn. Sorry. I can't stop seeing you without feeling... Never mind." He mumbled, blushing bright red.
 
"I think it'll be fine... I should ask though." He matched her smile in kind and began to speak in an incomprehensible hiss pattern. The snake responded with a different pattern that seemed to sort of echo. Azra'el looked into Evelyn's eyes once again and told her "She likes you and thinks it would be alright if you pet her." He liked holding hands with her it made him feel calm and happy.
 
"Yes, I'm fine. Fine." She sighed. "Are you sure you're alright?" She felt strange after he had placed his hand on her cheek, flustered almost. She sighed, before gripping his hand slightly. She felt immediately embarrassed, but refused to remove it. "Do you want me to return to Professor Brew to receive another antidote?"
 
ALEX


"I don't like drinking potions. I don't care if it's permanent, I won't drink another potion. I just feel very strangely about you right now." Alex said instantly. His eyes were glued on her lips, and he imagined what kissing them would be like. Stop it, Alex!
 
Evelyn smiled, her hand that clutched Azra'el's once again squeezing slightly as a thank you. She reached up, running a finger carefully down Lilith's head and back, making sure not to rub the scales the wrong way, smiling happily down at the snake as Lucifer hissed softly from below her, pawing at her leg.
 
"Are you sure?" She glanced up at his face, her eyes roving his features once again in concern. He looked handsome...why was she thinking that? He might be sick or enchanted? "You seem...out of sorts."

Alex lurched forward, kissing her without thinking before pulling back, his entire face bright red as he realized what he had done. "Oh, shit. I'm so sorry." He said, embarrassed beyond belief.
 
Evelyn laughed. "He's just a jealous cat." She continued to stroke Lilith, before slowly reaching her arms out to allow Lilith to move back to Azra'el through their held hands. However, she circled around Evelyn's neck like a loose necklace or scarf. Smiling, Evelyn ruffled Lucifer's head.
 
Eliza blinked in surprise, touching her lips, before lurching upwards and pressing her lips to Alex's, her eyes fluttering shut.
 
ALEX


Alex kissed Eliza, gripping her to him. A small noise escaped the back of his throat, but he couldn't bring himself to care.
 
Eliza tangled one hand in her hair, the other wrapping around her neck. She sighed, pressing her lips closer to his, pressing closer to him.

Alex had no idea what he was doing, but he had no problem with it. He wrapped his hands around Eliza's waist and lifted her so he didn't have to bend down as much.

Eliza felt like her heart might burst out of her chest. It felt right, she didn't care what someone might think, she felt safe, and, dare she say it, she felt loved, like she had never felt at her own home. Eventually she pulled back, pressing her forehead to Alex's and panting. "I...Alex..."
 
Eliza shook her head, laughing breathlessly. "No. That was amazing." She smiled at him, her eyes still slightly glazed. "Alex...I..." She didn't seem to be able to form the next words, trying to voice her real feelings.

"Talk to me, Eliza. You what?" Alex urged, placing her on her feet when he realized that he was still carrying her.

Eliza swallowed nervously, before speaking. "This seems stupid...I think I like you." She couldn't seem to force the word 'love' out of her throat. She wasn't sure if that was the right word anyway, but...she couldn't say the word. "I...maybe we could...go out, sometime?"

"There's a Hogsmeade trip next week. Would you like to go with me?" Alex asked, sounding a bit too formal. He cleared his throat awkwardly, scratching the back of his neck. "Sorry. I'm better at the kissing than the talking." He admitted, chuckling.
