Closed Precious Moments

[Vivian Brackenstall]

The idea of attending a school dance with a date of his own was still a relatively new one to Vivian, but one he was also finding he quite enjoyed. The Yule Ball with Hudson had been wonderful, and in the months since, he had found himself growing closer to the other boy. They had a lot in common, and Hudson felt easy to talk to. He was handsome as well, and Vivian felt more and more comfortable around him as time went by. It was definitely nice, being in a relationship he didn't have to hide. Holding hands in the hallways, kisses goodbye when one of them had to go to class... Everything felt comfortable, and free. It was hard not to think about how much he would enjoy those things with Tristan, but focusing on Hudson made things easier. As he walked into the dance, arm in arm with Hudson, Vivian found his thoughts entirely focused on the younger boy, smiling shyly. "What would you like to do first?"

Hudson walked arm in arm with Vivian. It was still weird to him in his mind that he had a boyfriend now. He was certain Fleur knew and wondered if she had written home to her parents yet about it. He didn't care however, he knew Viv wasn't a pureblood, or a woman but that matter not to Hudson. Putting his family's wishes aside the teen smiled from cheek to cheek as he looked at Vivian, "I'm not too picky, you can decide if you want." Hudson looked around the room enjoying the cheesy decorations a lot more now that he officially had a guy by his side. He knew he was the first guy Vivian had been with but the way the older guy treated him he felt like he could be the last, in a very good way. Hudson's eye wandered over the other guests of the dance so far, his eyes stopping when he noticed a pretty girl across the room. But as soon as he thought that he looked back to Vivian and knew he was much happier with him than with anyone else.

Vivian generally found all the noise and movement of school dances overwhelming and difficult to be part of, but it was easier to tune out the noise with someone to focus on, and tonight that person was Hudson. He smiled a little at the younger boy, considering their options. "How about we dance first? I think we're getting better at it." Vivian commented lightly. He wasn't much of a dancer, but he always wound up having a good time dancing with Hudson, and had somehow managed to avoid stepping on the other boy's feet yet.

Hudson was glad to see the dance going so well, and everyone would see him and his boyfriend. This dance they were official, and he took Vivian's hand as they moved forward in the Great Hall. He turned and looked at Vivian as the older boy suggested dancing. It was a great idea, even though there was really only two options and he wouldn't have minded either. "Splendid idea I think," he said with a nod of his head and grew a little more bolder and lead his date out on to the dance floor. He hadn't ever felt so confident when he was with Vivian than before. His mind and heart were focused on one thing only and that was Vivian.

Vivian smiled, pleased that Hudson liked the plan. When the younger boy took his hand Vivian laced their fingers together comfortably, enjoying how easy everything felt with Hudson. It felt natural to hold his hand, to follow him onto the dance floor, to meet Hudson's smile with one of his own. It still felt a little strange to behave so romantically in public, part of Vivian feeling as though he was breaking a rule as he rested his hands on Hudson's waist as they started to dance, but he did his best to ignore that voice. There was nothing wrong with this. Everything was as it should be. Smiling shyly, he met Hudson's eyes as they started to dance, feeling warm and comfortable with the Ravenclaw. "This is nice..."
