"Harry, what are you doing here?" Draco asked, looking surprised as Neville simply stared at Charlie and Charlie stared back. They had a silent conversation with each other of, how did it end up like this?

"Why don't we start at the beginning," Charlie said as he got up off the sofa and offered his seat to Harry.

Harry placed his hand on Draco's knee. "You've been acting so strange ever since I started making plans for the summer holidays-"

"I know, I just..." Draco sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

"Maybe we should give the two of you time to talk," Neville said standing up from his seat and stood awkwardly next to Charlie. "We'll just go in the other room or-"

"Why are you here, Neville? Did Draco bring you-"

"They're on a date," Draco replied to Harry. "I'm afraid, I've, now we've, interrupted."

"Ah..." Harry said, finally taking in the scene in front of him. Both Neville and Charlie's clothes were slightly dishevelled. Charlie's more since Neville did have a chance to go hide and get himself together.

"Maybe we should just get back," Harry said.

When they left, Charlie turned to look at Neville, obviously expecting an explanation. Even if it wasn't his place to say anything in the first place, now Neville had to confess.

"Draco stopped by earlier because when Harry discussed summer holidays, Draco was going to propose. Then, he panicked. Then, he was here..."

"Well..." Charlie said giving it a deep, long thought. "It's good to know that two people who are so committed to each other can also have their share of insecurities."

"Right. Leaves some hope for the rest of us. It's good to know no one's perfect."

Neville smiled and Charlie pulled him close. Kissing him again. next part: Tender
