Who do you admire?
“Who do you admire?” Harry asked from Ron’s lap.
Ron stopped stroking his hair and looked down, “What?” he asked.
“Who do you admire?” Harry asked again.
Ron shrugged, “I admire you,” he said.
“No seriously Ron, who do you admire?” Harry asked as he sat up and looked at Ron.
“Seriously Harry, I admire you,” Ron said, “When I was a kid I used to admire the guy who invented chocolate frogs, thought he must be the most brilliant person in the world. But then I met you and, you know, I’ve admired you since.”
Harry frowned at him, “That’s not true, what about Krum?” he asked.
“Can’t a bloke admire two people at the same time?” Ron asked with a raised eyebrow.
Harry sighed and nodded reluctantly, “I suppose.”
“Of course he can,” Ron said and grinned at the still frowning Harry. He opened his arms to him, “Come here,” he said.
Harry scooted over and let himself be held tightly against Ron’s chest. He sighed softly and nuzzled his nose in Ron’s shirt as he brought his own arms around his boyfriend.
“Ron?” he said after awhile.
“Hm?”
“I admire you too,”
“Of course you do,” Ron grinned and kissed him on the nose.
