Ficlet: The Return (Colin/Oliver)
Here's a little pre-slash Colin/Oliver that I've been working on to get back in the swing of writing.
Title: The Return
Pairing: Colin/Oliver (Eventually); Implied Oliver/Marcus
Prompt: Inadvertent Investment
Rating: PG
Word Count: Approx 1275
Summary: Four months after the Final Battle, Oliver resumes visiting a bed-ridden Colin, who has been comatose since nearly dying while defending Hogwarts from Voldemort. One Creevey is glad to see him; another Creevey is most certainly not.
Author's Notes: Pre-slash for now, but this sets up the post-war lives of both Colin and Dennis Creevey, as well as the growing affections of one Oliver Wood. Unbeta'd -- forgive (and point out) any mistakes, including Welsh geography. Written for rarepair_shorts

Preview: There was a fair bit of irony found in Oliver’s coming to Flintshire on such a regular basis, considering whom he had been ignoring for the six months. But with each visit to his former lover’s namesake, the sting of that nasty break-up had dulled, until he could barely remember the many sleepless, rejected nights. Was that why he continued his periodic visits to the Creeveys? Was there something else that motivated him? Or had Colin simply become an inadvertent investment?
