Even Ginny had her limits...
"Aconite first," Theo murmured, running a hand through his curls as he skimmed through her potion book.
Ginny bit her nail distractedly, jotting down the note. She could feel her hands start to shake and it only caused her to chew her nail more.
"Don't forget that thing I told you about monkshood..."
"Belladonna?" she said, praying her voice wasn't as shaky as her hands.
"If it helps you remember it..."
He never once looked up from her book. It was methodical. She appreciated that he kept tutoring her. He'd done all this himself last year. He shouldn't have had to go over it again...especially not for her.
She wrote another note, beginning to realise that she couldn't even read what she was writing anymore with as much as she was trembling.
"Are you cold?" he questioned, glancing up briefly. "I assume I'm used to it from living in the dungeons for so long. This room feels quite warm to me."
She watched as his tongue darted out, moistening his lips. He didn't even know what he was doing to her. Actually...he knew she liked him. She'd slapped him for bringing it out in the open in such the way as he had. And that tension between them only furthered to drive her insane.
"I'm fine," she mumbled.
"Now, about asphodel..."
Ginny had her limits.
She pinned him against the headboard, pushing the potions book from his lap as she straddled his hips and pressed a soft kiss to his lips.
"Sorry," she whispered against his lips, not moving back.
Theo's body tensed as expected, his eyes closed, brow furrowed, and she waited for him to do something...anything. When he relaxed beneath her, she was confused. She expected him to be upset, push her away...anything but tempt her more.
"Quite a change from your last impulsive decision," he said calmly.
She sighed, biting her own lip, knowing he could feel the action as her breath washed across his soft lips. "You know how I feel and yet you don't seem to care."
"You're not the only girl that has an unreasonable affection for me, Ginny."
"I'm not like the other girls," she said with a sharp intake of breath, dying to kiss him again.
"I know," he smirked, opening his eyes. "And that's why I don't offer to tutor the other girls privately in my room."
She opened her eyes wide, looking deeply into his, but her thoughts barely had time to register before his hands swiftly threaded into her hair, bringing her face closer as his lips crashed upon hers. His tongue drifted languidly across her lips, coaxing them to open.
You'll break my heart, she thought fleetingly. She knew this couldn't last. No matter how she felt about him, there would always be someone he wanted more. And that someone had the one thing she could never provide...a cock.
Ginny had her limits. And her impulses continually pushed them at her own expense. But for now...she had this. And maybe that was enough.
