Flirting with the enemy (A Jeverus story)

~•~Chapter 21~•~

The next, when James walked into the great hall, everyone began cheering again. Even the professors joined in.
James stared around at everyone, "Uh- Is it my birthday?"
Sirius came up next to him, patting his back, "No no... It's something better!"
"Is it Severus's birthday?! Oh god I didn't get him a guft!" James shouted, "I don't wanna be a bad boyfriend!"
Severus came up to him, grabbing his hand, "No James Its not my birthday..."
"Then- It can't be Christmas..." Severus smiled sweetly, kissing him on the cheek, "No James not Christmas, Although we have a few weeks.."
"James Potter!" Dumbledore shouted, making James tremble slightly, "Will be awarded 100 house points for solving the black magic crisis!"
James stared wide eyed at Dumbledore, "M-Me?!"
"Yes you!" Remus shouted.
"H-How?! I-I-"
McGonagall walked up to him, "Yesterday, when you confessed your love to Mr. Snape." She nodded her head towards Severus, who was clinging onto James's arm, "That was enough to over power the black magic, you saved our school!"
"I-I! I can't believe it!" James shouted, pulling Severus into a hug, "But what you really mean, is that we did it. If I had never fallen in love with Severus in the first place.. Then I wouldn't have been able to save the school."
"Well then, I guess we could award Mr. Snape 50 points but-"
"Excuse me professor, but if he gets to points then I do as well." James argued.
"Oh, well if that's what you would like, I will talk about it with Dumbledore." Professor McGonagall replied, walking away.
Dumbledore stood up once more, "And because of that beautiful love confession that saved our school, we say that all Exams are cancelled, and there will be no school today!"
Everyone clapped harder except for Snape, who looked bummed that the exams were cancelled.
James lifted Severus's chin up, planting a small kiss on his lips, "How about me and you have a real date today?"
"That would be nice" Severus smiled.
---
"Today was really great Sev." James smiled, "Even if we just spent it together in the library."
Severus blushed a deep red, and he became slightly nervous, "I-I... Uh... James.. There is one more thing I want to do..."
James looked down at Severus, "And what us that?"
Severus took his hand. Leading him to the room of requirement, he had a room that he used for studying, but today it would be used for something different. (I See all y'all dirty minds coming out- 👀)
"The room of requirement?" James asked, while he watched Severus close the door.
"Y-Yeah, this is where I come to study... But right now I wanna use it just to be alone with you..." Severus looked away, "I want to get to know you more, it's feels like in the seven years we knew each other, it feels like we never knew each other well."
"Sev.. Is this about me bullying you.. Cause I really am sorry-"
"Its not about that... It's about me not knowing the real James Potter... The real you.. I mean we were enemies at a very young age and... I never got to know you.." Severus muttered.
James sat down in a chair, patting his lap for Severus to come and sit on, "Come sit and we can talk."
Severus nodded, sitting On James's lap, facing him, "Alright.. So what do we do first?"
"How about I do this." James kissed Severus.
Severus pulled away, playfully hitting James, "Save that for later!"
"Oh~ What's later?~" James tease.
Severus smiled, "You dork."
"But I'm your dork~" James chuckled, "Anyways what do you want to know first?"
Severus thought long and hard, "What's your favorite color?"
"Blue." James replied, "What's yours?"
"Black." Severus replied quickly, "Favorite Hobby?"
"Quuditch?" James said unsure of the answer, "Or it could be having fun with my friends."
"Oh, mines reading.. Obviously." Severus laughed.
James's face suddenly became serious, "Severus.. There is something I really want to know.."
"Hm?~" Severus hummed, while he layed his on James's Chest, Inhaling the scent.
"What was the last smell you had in amortentia?" James asked, blushing.
Severus sat up quickly, his face scarlet, "I-I.. I-It was.."
James smiled, "Don't be embarrassed by it."
Severus nodded, "The last smell... Believe it or not is... Your cologne.."
"Now I understand why you didn't want to say it out loud.."  James replied, "Hm,  I wouldn't blame you... This cologne is easy to memorize."
Severus giggled slightly, Kissing James. Severus yawned slightly, resting his head back on James's chest, Slowly drifting off into sleep.
"I love you Sev." James yawned, warring his arms around Severus.
