There he was again... the notorious chocolate brown haired Ravenclaw who always seemed to have a genuine bond with magic and non-magical creatures. Otherwise known as "fantastic beast" to Newt who was currently busy gawking at the male Ravenclaw.

Newt throughout his entire lifetime had never really found anyone who connected with beast in the same manners he did. He never truly thought he would ever find another who shared his enthusiasm with creatures, but then somehow he managed to stumble his way towards you.

Literally.

It was during that faithful encounter during Defense Against the Dark Arts, D.A.D.A., in which Newt accidentally bumped into you, he finally received the chance to speak to the immensely popular [M|N]. It was actually nice being able to talk to the other male. Not as bad as Newt originally thought. The Hufflepuff enjoyed the Ravenclaw's natural charming presence and admired the way [M|N] gave special attention to any magical creatures.

It was rather a pleasant surprise when Newt came upon his first discovery: [M|N] in the dinning area tending to a baby barn owl. It was a sweet sight. The baby barn owl was affectionately nuzzling it's head against [M|N]'s neck and in response the chocolate brown haired wizard smiled warmly. Newt couldn't help but smile as well. Seeing the pair share such a caring moment made the red-brown haired Hufflepuff feel a sense of tranquility yet at the midst of it all there was a twinge of envy that dawned on his subconscious. His fingers twitched slightly but at the time, Newt passed it off as not eating lunch that day not noticing it was only till when the baby barn owl was left on to a soft blanket - noticeably away from the [M|N]'s gentle grasp - Newt's fingers eased.

Maybe it was the way [M|N]'s striking features expressed a soft angelic gleam of happiness caused Newt to be utterly smitten with the boy? Or the rare, mesmerizing smile [M|N] would always give Newt every time the duo would encounter each other? Or maybe it was because of the passionate feelings Newt felt towards the Ravenclaw that even Newt's feelings towards the fantastic beast were at a constant rivalry? Maybe that's why Newt always found himself in the same footsteps as [M|N] - maybe that's why Newt made it a hobby of his - to trail after the raven whenever the red-brown haired badger could. A guilty pleasure Newt had ever since he first dreamily gazed at the teen during dinner.

Newt knew about the chances of getting caught by the teen he was ever so hopelessly entranced by were undeniably high but yet the Scamander remained to his normal routines (following [M|N] while using hiding spaces he finds which are often poorly fortified) after some awkward mental prep talk all the while. Perhaps this is why Newt missed the amused smile a certain Ravenclaw formed after noticing the poorly hidden figure that was awfully fidgety.

Suddenly, Newt felt a gentle tap on his right shoulder. "Hey there Newt."

Newt immediately felt his body go rigid.

"Uh hi [M-M|N]. I was j-just going-"
"Nonsense, stay with me. I've been wanting to show you something anyways Newt. I think you might enjoy it."

Newt felt his blood rush to his face as he felt [M|N]'s observing eyes on his being. God, this wasn't how he wanted to approach [M|N]. This wasn't even how Newt wanted to [M|N] find him.

God, it's embarrassing.

"C'mon follow me Newt. Maybe it'll make your blush calm down."

Newt felt a comforting, protective warmth on his hand. It was like a warm cup of Newt's favorite seasonal drink. Newt's orbs trailed downwards to see where the source of warmth was coming from and to his pleasant surprise It was [M|N]'s hand intwined with his own. The Hufflepuff instinctively smiled endearingly as his gaze was locked on their hands. Although the blush did turn a rosier shade of pink, Newt couldn't help but admire the sight. It was a piece of art that held the beauty and warmth of a Phoenix. It wasn't till Newt heard the sound of a door opening, his attention was brought back up.

Newt found himself in a room that seemed to be unoccupied. There were no desk, no chairs, and no signs of school work. What can this room be? Swiftly that thought was pushed to the side when he heard the heavenly voice owned by no other than [M|N]. "Close your eyes Newt. It's a surprise after all."

Newt hesitantly closed his eyes as he felt his face flush a light pink. His blush only got worse when he felt the other's breath on the nape of his neck. The sensation itself made Newt experienced a chill of shivers that urged the Hufflepuff to squirm while moving his hips upwards. However, the Scamander was barely able to resist the daunting urge and weakly opened his eyes after hearing [M|N]'s command to do so.

To Newt's delightfully dazed astonishment it was a creature known as a Bowtuckle. A male one to be exact. "I named him Pickett. I found him near the potions room. I thought you'd like to have another magical creature since I know you admire them all endlessly Newt. I know you'll look after Pickett more better than–"

[M|N] was slightly shocked by the hug Newt gave him but quickly hugged the badger with the same amount of passion. "T-Thank you so much [M|N]."

"Ah, no problem Newt."

Newt comfortably endorsed the warmth coming from the teen as he enjoyed the moment for what it was. [M|N] did just the same as the two hugged in a welcoming, content silence. Maybe getting caught wasn't such a bad thing after all.
