SpellBound

(1st Person P.O.V {Izaya})

While it doesn't feel like it, the days are becoming progressively longer. Now January, all the students, including myself, are working hard for our upcoming O.W.Ls. I am surely going to fail my D.A.D.A exam, all of us are,  as we haven't exactly learned anything on this subject. I honestly can't stand that witch with her damn pink cardigan and infuriating smile. No one can. As for the rest of the subjects, I'll definitely pass. They're pretty easy, some almost on the borderline of tedious.

Outside of class, I'm still getting used to the fact that Shizu-chan asked me out, and that I'm his boyfriend. And he gave me such a beautiful gift... I touched the snake on the necklace, running my finger along it. It makes me blush, how he just sat me down on his lap and asked... But not as much as his teasing does. It's mean! He's always calling me cute... I'm not cute... And some of the things he announced so shamelessly... Great, I'm blushing now... Softly I sigh and shake my head, berating my silliness.

"Shizu-chan is super sweet and gentle... And I'm not the only cute one!" I folded my arms, pouting, thinking about how adorable my boyfriend could be.

"...Shizu-chan kawaii, nē? His eyes just light up whenever he's excited, and they sparkle with life!"

"And he has such soft hair and a sexy ass, right?"

"He does~." I agreed, smirking... Wait, who am I agreeing with?! 

"Eh..?!" Turning around in the chair I was sitting on, I gaped in horror as Draco entered my vision. My smirk vanished. Hang on, how did he know I was thinking of Shizu-chan? Did I say all of that out loud?!

"Ano, Draco... How much did you hear..?" I asked hesitantly, fearing the prat's answer.

"I heard how attracted you are to his eyes. And that he's 'kawaii'." he replied, looking smug. "So lover boy, what's going on in your life, and what's 'kawaii'~?

The Malfoy heir sat down beside me, acting like how an ever idiot is supposed to act. I felt like hitting him. Why must I deal with him now? Why was he the one who overheard something that wasn't even meant to be spoken of? ... Oh... I can just leave... I don't have to answer him! Before Draco could stop me, I raced out of the Slytherin dorms, Draco shouting after me.

(1st P.O.V {Shizuo})

So? My teasing is apparently mean..? Well, it sounds like today he's just angry at being called cute... If only I could tell why I can hear his voice lately.. It started popping up into my mind at random times on New Year's Day. Well, nothing bad has happened so I guess it's fine. I wonder if flea can hear my voice... Or am I just that obsessed with him..?  I sighed once more as I tried to refocus on my homework.

...

...

...And I'm lost. I don't completely understand anything that isn't Care of Magical Creatures or Potions. And who cares about the stars or planets?! Closing the book I lay my head on top of it, the cover actually making a decent cushion. I felt like a mini version of the stupid solar system was around my head, the planets whizzing in their continuous circular motion, completely making my brain melt into an even more useless puddle of mush.

I want a hug...

"So Shizu-chan." A voice sneered. It wasn't Izaya's, and I'm pretty sure the only one who was either brave enough to talk to me in such a manner was...

"Aka... Just the person I needed to see..." I groan inwardly and turn my head to them side, looking upon at the other's face, which was twisted into a smirk. I kept my expression blank.Was he really going to pick a fight in the library?

"And what do I owe the pleasure of the honour of having you approach me so boldly?" I sarcastically question, watching his smirk disappear and in its' stead, a scowl formed. I just don't feel up to anything today... Well, meeting with flea would be ideal, but I can't just pester him every day.

"Professor Dumbledore wants to talk to you." the red-haired male growled out.

Huh... Did I do something..? Wait... Is he against homosexuality? Well, if he is, screw Dumbledore, even if he was the one who gave me this opportunity to transfer here and doesn't care about my ability... And the one who kinda lets me do what I want on the school grounds... And doesn't expel me from here after all the trouble I cause... And...

Yeah, I think I'll shut up now...

Though I'm not even talking and you're just a person who is reading my thoughts that are typed out by a-

Right... Breaking the fourth wall... It's not allowed.

"Well? Ya gonna go or do I have to escort you there myself?" Akabayashi snapped me out of my musings, his gaze on me starting to p̶i̶s̶s̶ m̶e̶ o̶f̶f̶ make me feel uncomfortable. I stood up and packed away my book, exiting the library without another word to him, lest I completely trash the library.

Mmn... I still want a hug... Preferably from my flea... He's just so huggable... Like a teddy... Soft and squishy and small and cute...

I am now craving hugs... Now I know what Yuuri felt like when he couldn't find Viktor... Hugging everyone around him...

Ugh... Hugs are nice, though...

I wonder how those two are... I've only seen them once or twice, the first time Yuuri was frantically going on a hugging rampage, looking for Viktor, who I ran into five minutes after Yuuri sped off to hug others...

Yuuri's Hufflepuff Huggle Hug Supreme... What am I even thinking..? Oh... I'm at Dumbledore's office...

...

Crap...

I didn't ask Aka for the password...

I huffed out irritably and started making my way back to the library, feeling like the most idiotic mutt in history...

Woof...

Why am I even thinking all this shit?! First, I crave hugs, then I can't tackle Astronomy homework, I still crave hugs, so much so that I don't ask for the password to the Headmaster's office, start to think about the hug fest Yuuri, a guy I barely know, started, and now I think 'Woof'.

Where is my mind today?

...

...

...I want a h-DON'T EVEN!

(3rd P.O.V {Izaya})

Izaya stood outside on the school grounds near the Forbidden Forest, feeling a cool breeze flow through his hair. The raven was half-hoping that he could catch a glimpse of a certain brown-furred creature. He sighed and sat down on the grass, but his senses alerted when he sighted a pair of gold glowing orbs in the shadows of the trees. The raven-haired teen sent a small smile towards the mammal as it stepped forward, bowing it's head slightly. Izaya felt slightly nervous around the huge wolf, as he honestly detested the species after what had happened to him. The male was suddenly hit by a jolt of terror as a haunting memory
appeared in his mind.

____________________Flashback...

Izaya Orihara had never been so afraid in his life. He could feel his heart pounding against his rib cage as he cowered behind the counter in the kitchen. His two sisters, Mairu and Kururi, were also with the boy, each one hugging his arms. The children's parents were in the back garden, dealing with something you could definitely say it was bigger than a house dog. The trio could hear the rabid snarls from the beast along with the shots of spells being fired. 

'Why is this happening?! What did we ever do wrong?!' the eldest thought frantically. But before he could think any further, a pained scream from his mother interrupted, followed by a shout from his father and the sound of padded paws thundering towards their direction. Izaya quickly attempted to usher his sisters up the stairs, away from harm, but the sudden skull of an overgrown wolf bashed into his side, sending him flying into a wall. Mairu and Kururi shrieked, unwillingly turning the attention of the werewolf to themselves. 

The younger form of Izaya was overcome by a sense of protectiveness, forcing himself to his feet, ignoring the agonizing pain. Pests or not, they were his siblings, and what kind of brother would he be if he couldn't protect them?

"H-hey!" the auburn-eyed boy stuttered, a fire burning in his eyes. The werewolf paused mid-swipe as its gaze wandered over to the trembling ravenette, letting out a huff and tilting its head. Izaya froze as he felt the creature's eyes bore into him, feeling like the beast could see into the very depths of his soul. He could see the overgrown wolf's lip start to curl into a snarl, its eyes filling within bloodlust.

It all happened in slow motion.

The savage lunge at Izaya.

The wicked, sharp claws of the monster tearing into his flesh.

The horrified screams from his parents once they saw what was happening.

And the excruciating pain the young ravenette felt.

Izaya Orihara had never been so afraid in his life.

____________End of Flashback...

The auburn-eyed teen was pulled back into reality to have a huge, furry, light brown muzzle greet him, teeth and all. He yelped out in fear, still partly stuck in the past... Until a slobbery, wet tongue licked his face off.

"Bleurgh! Eww!" the teen spat out, glaring at the figure of the wolf. "What the hell?! Why would you do that?!"

All he got in reply was a swish of a tail and a blank expression in reply, the wolf plonking itself down in front of him. Izaya shook his head, huffing out a breath of air. Now, with his face all wolf slobber and the front of his hair a mess, the male glared harshly at the animal, who yawned, turned its head and promptly ignored him.

"Don't ignore me! I'm angry as you now!" Izaya shouted, feeling very, very pissed up. The damn beast had never had the audacity to approach him, and yet here it was, giving him a huge, big kiss that was designed for their own kind.

'Would Shizu-chan get jealous of a wolf..?' the teen wondered, then decided to not try and figure it out. The wolf beside him now would didn't seem to like other humans.

"Nē Wolfie~?" Izaya smirked at how it gave him a look of dislike as the nickname. "Would you like to meet my boyfriend?"

The mammal tilted its head and whined, then turned around completely and lay down.

"I guess that's a no, then... Heh..."

Another whine.

"That's a shame." Izaya began. "He really likes animals. He has a dog at home, and two owls. And, in Care Of Magical Creatures, all of the creatures seem to like him." The raven smiled, recalling the look on Shizuo's face when he tended to the unicorn.

"He makes the cutest faces as well. His smile is adorable... And when he blushes..." The wolf seemed to be interested on listening, so Izaya spilled out all he had about Shizuo to the animal. It felt good to be able to talk about his boyfriend without any snarky remarks or giggles. Also, he told himself, being near the mammal should help him conquer his fear over wolves.

After an hour or so Izaya bid farewell to the overgrown creature, who bowed its head and slunk back into the Forest. The raven made his way back to the castle, happily skipping along the corridors.

'I wonder if Shizu-chan is around...' Izaya mused. 'Actually, he'll be in the library trying to finish his homework.' The Slytherin Fifth-year started to skip towards the library, humming a tune he'd heard. The raven entered the library to be greeted with the sight if his lover asleep on a book, hair astray. There was barely anyone else there, apart from the quiet sound of chatter from a group of girls behind a few bookcases. Izaya smiled and crept over to the sleeping male, tapping his shoulder.

"Shizu-chan~." He called softly. "Wake up~."

No movement.

Izaya frowned and nudged his boyfriend, who grumbled and turned his head in the other direction. Sighing, the ravenette moved and kneeled down before Shizuo's face. The raven couldn't help but admire the cute expression the blonde was wearing. Izaya loved how peaceful the Gryffindor looked, but then remembered he was going to destroy that very expression. He huffed out a breath, hesitating on what he was going to do.

'Come on, Izaya. Shizu-chan always kisses you.' he told himself, blushing slightly.

The ravenette lifted Shizuo's head slightly and kissed the blonde on the lips. To his surprise, the older teen kissed back, nipping at the younger's bottom lip, sitting up to wrap his arms around the smaller male. Izaya closed his eyes and allowed the other to push his tongue into his mouth, making a small noise of satisfaction, holding onto the Gryffindor's neck. After a good seven seconds, Shizuo pulled away, smiling and propping his head up with his arm.

"Thank you for the wake up call, flea~." the mocha-eyed teen said, Izaya's face flushed.

"Y-you were already awake!" spluttered out the ravenette. "You kissed back!" Shizuo shook his head, chuckling, much to the irritation of his smaller boyfriend.

"I was asleep flea." he started. "I just happened to be dreaming of you~."

"And what were you dreaming about that involved me?" Izaya demanded, then regretted the demand as soon as he saw the wolfish grin that appeared on Shizuo's features.

"Oh flea, I dream about a lot if things involving you, none of them are innocent, mind you. Most times its a passionate love-making session, others... It gets more kinky." Shizuo admitted happily, still smiling. Izaya on the other hand, was at a loss.

The blonde stood up and hugged the Slytherin, who was now as red as a tomato. The raven buried his face into Shizuo's chest, mumbling incoherently. How could the mocha-eyed male say such things so shamelessly..? Izaya just couldn't get it.

"You know, even though I told my mum we wouldn't do it while we're underage, I don't think I meant it. I wouldn't mind having sex even though we're underage... We could always just have sex in th-Mhm!"

"E-enough, Shizu-chan..!" Izaya hissed, embarrassed by the notion, covering the other's mouth, blushing furiously. "Please don't say that out loud." 

Liiiiiick...
.

.

.

"S-SHIZU-CHAN!!!"

The older male had licked the palm of the raven's hand, Izaya pulling his hand away almost immediately after. Great. Now he'd been licked by a wolf and his boyfriend.

"Shh~." Shizuo pressed a finger to his lips, giving Izaya a coy look. "You don't want to make too much noise, now do we~? Other people could hear your voice~."

The ravenette shuddered at how husky the blonde had made his voice. Leave it to Shizuo to make it sound sexual. Izaya scowled while a light pink tinted his cheeks. His blonde-haired lover yawned and let Izaya support a bit of his weight as he hung his head over the younger's shoulder. The auburn-eyed teen smiled and stroked the taller's hair.

"...Oh yeah... Flea, I need to ask ya something..."

"Go ahead."

Shizuo hesitated for a moment, then looked down at Izaya.

"Have... Have you... Man, this is weird to ask, heheh... Um, have you heard my voic- no. Has my voice ever randomly pop up in your head with a weird or out of place sentence..?"

Izaya was glad Shizuo asked this, because he'd feel even more awkward asking it than the blonde. However... It sort of freaked him out on how Shizuo knew about it.

"Actually, yes. I have heard your voice in my head on numerous occasions... Why?" Izaya stated, adding on the question after a pause. The taller male seemed to sigh happily, then he smiled.

"Whoo... Man, at least I now know I ain't crazy..." Shizuo laughed and hugged Izaya tighter, nuzzling him. The raven was now thoroughly confused.

"Um, Shizu-chan, how does that prove you arent-"

"I can hear your voice too, sometimes." Shizuo grinned. "Today, your voice portrayed you as angry at how I call you cute. It was funny. And that my teasing is mean..."

"Shizu... That wasn't a random sentence..." Now, this was a shock to Izaya. He did not expect the random sentences to be Shizuo's thoughts...

"Huh? What do you mean?" Shizuo questioned, puzzled at why the smaller male would say that.

"Umm, I... Kinda thought that while I was in the Slytherin dorms..." came the mumbled reply from the younger teen, who was now blushing again.

"You did?" Shizuo asked. "Doesn't that mean I could... Hang on.."

It appeared the mocha-eyed teen had come to the same conclusion. Izaya took a breath of air, then exhaled. "Shizu-chan, it appears we can occasionally hear each others thoughts..."

"Yeah..." Shizuo shifted a bit, not letting go of the ravenette and snickered, much to the confusion of his boyfriend. "You do realise how creepy that sounds, right?"

"..."

"That is all you think about when you find out you can hear your boyfriends thoughts..?"

"Yes..?"

Just then, Shizuo yawned again, closing his eyes and rubbing them. Izaya huffed out a breath and pulled away from the hug, packing up Shizuo's bag and handing it to the taller male. He then proceeded to latch onto the older's arm, kissing the other's cheek and smiling.

"We can discuss this tomorrow when you're actually awake and able to pay attention, okay?" the ravenette spoke gently. Shizuo simply nodded along. The pair exited the library and made their way to their dorms, Izaya escorting the taller blonde to his. They bid farewell and went their separate ways, the auburn-eyed teen still intrigued about the the newly discovered ability they both had.
