They were all such gluttons.
He was laughing by the time the bar was full of people, the magically induced euphoria kicking in quickly. He took another three for good measure, sliding that honey warm liquid down his open throat like a pro.
People were talking to him. Their voices came in like static through a TV, he was aware of his name paired with the different names of the drugs in front of him, but he didnât care to get more information.
âEveryoneâs yelling at once...â He mumbled softly. Far too softly for the crowd to hear. He grinned at someone that grabbed a pile of giggle water shots, his eyes glassy and happy and so far away.
Something cute and yellow popped into his vision and he instantly thought of sunflowers. Which made him think of that field on the way to Hogwarts, which made him think of the Express and how
awesome trains are. He fucking loved trains, kind of wanted to live on one someday-
âTeddy!âThat was his name. Loud and clear. He could hear it through that warm tingling static. Oh.
Teddy glanced to his right and encountered Lysander, strung up over his shoulder like he belonged there. Well, he fucking did belong there, especially with all those dimples and smiling eyes.
Heâd been asked a question, he was aware only because Lys was staring at him with his eyebrows raised and his mouth slightly open. Teddy let his eyes wander away from molten brown to soft pink, parted in a way that made him want to take advantage. Slid his tongue across them and feel hot breath against his.
âWhat was that?â Teddyâs voice sounded far away, but apparently not far enough for Lysander. The kid repeated his question, this time with a little quirk to his lips that made Teddy want to grab his face roughly. There was a lot of people around and he wasnât sure Lys wanted that at the moment.
âOh
Lysâ He purred, sliding his arm around a thin waist and tugging him closer, âLiterally anything for you. Take your pickâ. Teddy grabbed a couple different packets of pixie dust and pushed them into his companionâs hand, then untangled himself before he got too caught up. He
wanted to tie himself up in that for the rest of the night, but it was still hour one and he had to make sure everyone was good and fucked before he got to do just that.
Some students felt comfortable enough to just grab and go, veterans of the practice. A couple stood their awkwardly, unsure what was safe, and it required Teddy to put on his warmest smile and explain that he wouldnât provide anything unsafe.
âLive free, pick whatever you want.â If you feel nasty come let him know. But he
promised everything would make you feel gooooood.
Heâd wink, smile, toss a shot back with anyone that was still nervous. He was determined to get the entire party high tonight, one way or the other. If it required him being dragged back to the castle by Kingsley, James, or Scor, well be it.
Time came back to him when a familiar weight slid against his body. He was pulled away from the bar heâd been heavily leaning on and felt a warm chest on his back. Breath near his ear, hair tickling his face, arms wrapped around him in a way that made him feel comfortable and antsy all at the same time. Ted leaned back and grinned from ear to ear, a fresh wash of honey sliding through him from the warmth.
âHey Lysâ James voice was loud in his ear, drowning out the party. Ted remembered Lysander had been here (had that only been a moment ago?) and glanced sidelong at the small blonde. He saw him, but his brain was still all wrapped up in the body against his back that he didnât really register. It wasnât until James started pulling back that Teddy frowned.
Such a fucking tease.âHereâ Teddy grabs two vials of euphoria, turning his back to the bar to face James. He hands one to his best friend and grins, uncorking the other, âTo the beginning of the end?â
âBeginning of the end,â James echoes, his voice a faraway dream. It hits Teddy that this was their last year,
end of all this insanity and the beginning of reality. But for now, he could ignore that.
They knock back and Teddyâs mind rushes away from thoughts of Hogwarts. The euphoria hits James like the first shot of gin and a burst of happiness has Jamesâs mind doing flips. Suddenly hyper-aware of the dozens of people moving around them, the music blasting in their ears, alcohol and weed smoke filling the air.
âDamn,â James laughs, tossing the vial onto the counter behind his lanky friend,
âYou didnât even make me beg for it this time.âTed wanted to say something cool. He was all revved to go on their usual back and forth, but he was already six vials deep and feeling it hard. So, instead, he giggled madly and slid down the cabinet of the bar, throwing his full weight onto his knees.
âOh mate, the image you of begging...â he let out a gust of air, his hair falling in his face in a wild way and streaming highlights of red sliding through his locks to frame a feral grin, âDonât tempt meâ
âOk,â James hums, chest tight from holding back a laugh. Itâs hard to be good when Tedâs voice takes on that narcotic stilt that he likes, already on his knees like they hadnât gone through
that scenario a couple times over.
James shouldnât be enjoying this as much as he is. Or maybe he should. Heâs high. James slides down next to his friend, runs a hand along the back of his neck until it's buried in Teddyâs crimson hair. Ted's shirt kinda smells like moondew and has his mind wondering. What if he just kissed him? The sweat pooling at the base of his neck is inviting enough.
James grips a little tighter, turning Tedâs head until theyâre facing each other.
Teddyâs face withers a bit. Fuck, his hair was his weak spot, especially when someone throws a bit of force into. A little mental chant of pull harder, pull harder, pull
harder starts up as he stares James down with burning green eyes.
James gaze was equally as intense and Teddy was captivated.... but not enough to stop his eyes from slipping down to his friend's mouth as he spoke.
âNot tempting you, am I?âHe swallowed, wished he hadnât
cause he looked so weak right now and looked back up quickly with a mild shake of his head.
âYour gonna have to try harder than thatâ
âYeah?â James nods. All slow like. That raw, searching look to Tedâs face slits him open like a razor, and he doesnât miss the way sharp green eyes meet his own.
James letâs go of his hair and wraps a hand around his neck instead. Shoves Teddy onto his ass, back pressed against the counter. He canât help the smirk that creeps up as his thumb draws lazy circles around an artery, way to intrigued by the way the kids pulse quickens beneath his grip.
âYou want it harder, Teds?âJames was blocking out any lights, a looming silhouette of pure black. Teddy swallowed, the movement exaggerated by the grip around his throat.
Had there ever been a more erotic thing said? Teddy let slip a little grunt of pleasure and reached, grabbing fabric and tugging the black silhouette to him. He blindly gripped James jaw, forcing his face till they were breathing the same air. He couldnât make out much, but he stared where he thought James eyes were. âAlright. Your moveâ
Something about the thrum of the music over the counter and hot breath on his face was making him want to play this game, even though he knew it was only going to end one way. James was so good at getting him to do whatever he wanted.
Teddyâs words barely register past the buzzing in Jameâs ears, the kind of feeling you canât make sense of but you know it by its absence.
_His move_. His way. Itâs all he needs to hear, really. The hard floor feels like hell against his knees when James climbs on top, his vision going black around the edges when Tedâs shirt rides up and exposes the smooth skin underneath. Harder. The kid wants it
harder.
Tedâs grip is strong enough to leave bruises and the anticipation has Jamesâ heart hammering inside his chest, all too reminiscent of the way things usually are; James blurry eyed and pining after the liquors got him all too fucked up. He could get used to this, though. Tears Tedâs hand away from his face and closes the gap between them without missing a beat.
Then Jamesâ mouth is on him. Biting. A mess of nails, teeth, and aggression, as if heâd lost the last shreds of his decency and the only place left to look was Tedâs mouth. Under his shirt. Against his neck. Jamesâ whole body lights up from the search.
