I dreamt of him last night. Not of the boy, but of his father. Lucius was the first great love of my life. He saw something inside of me that no one else could. He scooped me up, protected me from harm. Made sure all of Slytherin house knew that I was his, and they could not touch me, harm me, hurt me.
That summer, the summer of his 7th year, we were inseparable. I would search for him between classes, steal kisses where ever possible. Under stairways or under stars, it did not matter.
How many nights did he cradle me in his arms as we looked into the summer sky?
Then one night he brought some firewhiskey, giving me one or two sips, as he drank the majority of the bottle. Yet somehow, I felt a bit out of focus, disoriented, fuzzy and warm while he looked perfectly in control ... perfectly perfect.
With a flick of his wand, he commanded such beautiful music to be played. I was intoxicated, not only by the drink, but by every ounce of his being. Intoxicated by his smell, by his touch, even by his heart beat.
And then he touched me. He asked me if I wanted my birthday gift, but I expressed my nervousness to him (and that my birthday was six month prior). He stroked my hair, tightened his embrace, reminding me that I was safe. I was with my protector, my guardian, my love.
I allowed him access to my inner thigh and to my very soul. How my body pulsed and betrayed my true desire. He gently asked if he could proceed, I was unable to say the words, but my body granted him access. Such gentleness, such reverence, such utter desire.
My body sprung to life with his simple touches. How he made me ache! Loud moans of sheer bliss escaped from my mouth. He was the master, and I the young apprentice.
I dreamt of him last night. Of that very field, under the stars. Of the love we had. Of the love we lost.
