Caspar still felt awful about what had happened between him and Xavier. Even if he'd wanked himself to death over it afterwards. He honestly couldn't help it. He didn't know what to do with himself anymore. But, he knew he had to sit with Xavier and Scorpius through a dinner. He ran his hand through his hair and glanced at the door, adjusting his tie before he knocked on Malfoy Manor's door.

Cepheus didn't like that he'd actually invited James for this dinner. He looked at his brother miserably. "Did you invite that Caspar bloke tonight?" He asked Scorpius. "Albus wouldn't come with me because of his boyfriend. So I had to ask James Potter."

"I guess I'm just crazier about you than I am about my hair," Xavier said, looking in a window and reaching up to try and fix it. "They're right, though. I don't like messing up it or my clothes. I'm gayer than Scorpius and Cepheus."

"We've met," Scorpius said, glancing at Cepheus and grinning a little. He was pretty sure his brother was frowning to keep from staring. James Potter was hot. Too bad he was an arse. "I'm friends with his brother too."

James nodded, holding a hand out to Scorpius. "But I'm your brother's date tonight and he's being polite," James said. "It's a pleasure to re-meet you, Scorpius."

Caspar hesitated for a moment, then reached up and slicked back Xavier's hair. His fingers moved over it until it was fixed just right, the way that he'd always seen Xavier wear it. "There. That looks better."

Cepheus didn't like the way that James was looking at Scorpius. He frowned to himself for a moment and then cleared his throat. "Do you want something to drink, Potter?"

Pansy walked up to her sons and then gentleman in front of them. She glanced over Scorpius and then Cepheus. "Scorpius. Is this your date?" She could only assume. There was no way Cepheus would bring someone home who was so well dressed.

Xavier smiled down at Caspar. "Thanks," he said. "My mum would know something was going on with me if my hair wasn't in place for this." He reached up, touching Caspar's cheek, his thumb brushing over it, and then kissed his forehead before pulling back. "Come on. Scorpius is waiting."

James was about to reply to Cepheus when his mother came in. James hadn't met Pansy Malfoy before, but he knew of her, and he was usually pretty good at charming older women. He pulled his hat off, turning to smile at her, and offered Pansy his hand. "I'm Cepheus's date, actually," he said. "Although I practically had to beg him to get him to invite me. I think he's planning on trading up. You have a lovely home, Mrs. Malfoy."

All Caspar could think about was grabbing Xavier and kissing him. But, he couldn't. Instead, he followed behind him. When they reached the room where Scorpius was, he calmed himself down and walked over to his boyfriend. "Sorry I'm late."

Pansy looked at James Potter. She knew his type. He was just like Theodore and Blaise had always been, but a tad less nauseating. "You'll have to do better than that, Potter. I'm very used to your kind. You can call me Pansy." She informed the boy, then held out her hand to him.

Cepheus frowned. "He thinks he's a lot better looking than what he is. Where's Father?"

Scorpius looked up at Caspar and smiled. "It's okay," he said. "Mum just got here and watching James Potter flirt with Cepheus to annoy him is plenty entertaining." He looked at Xavier over Caspar's shoulder. "Did you come to the front door?"

James laughed, relaxing a little when Pansy called him out on his behaviour. He liked the Malfoys more than he'd expected to. This one, at least." He kissed the back of Pansy's hand. "Duly noted, Pansy," he said, and then glanced at Cepheus, pulling back and wrapping an arm loosely around his shoulders. "You're going to destroy my self-confidence. If I'm not as good looking as I think I am, I must look very out of place next to you."

"Here," Draco said, walking into the room. "Your mother had to pull me away from some last minute paperwork. Are we ready for dinner?" He stopped and looked at the two boys standing by his sons, then glanced at Pansy. The good looking one looked a little familiar, but he seemed too... put together to be Cepheus's date, and the other boy was a bit... Scorpius usually brought someone more Pansy's type to these things.

"Yeah. I thought it'd be more appropriate." Caspar admitted with a smile. "Kind of like a real date or something. Which we haven't really went on yet." He kept his voice quiet. "We should."

"You do." Cepheus assured James and shrugged. "It's not my fault that I outshine you. I'm a Malfoy. It just means I'm naturally beautiful. You know?" He motioned for him to follow. "Father. This is James Potter."

Aurora smiled softly and walked up to her brother Xavier, taking his arm into her own. "Are you okay?" She asked. "One of your buttons isn't buttoned right."

"I wish I'd been there to answer it," Scorpius said. He wished he could kiss Caspar in front of everyone, or at least hold his hand. But he held himself back. "We should. Will you let me take you out once we get back to Hogwarts? We could go to London some weekend when we won't be missed."

"Potter?" Draco repeated, raising an eyebrow at he looked at the boy. He certainly didn't look like the other Potter Cepheus liked to hang around. Draco offered James his hand. "You must be Albus's brother, then."

"I am," James said. Draco Malfoy was gay, right? He smiled his best smile at the other man as he shook his hand. "It's nice to meet you, Mr. Malfoy. I've heard a lot about you from my uncle Charlie."

"Have you?" Draco felt like maybe he should have a conversation with Charlie about what he was telling the other Weasleys about him, if that was the case. He looked at Cepheus. "Are you two in the same House at school?"

Xavier looked down at Aurora and then at his buttons, sighing, reaching down to fix it. "Do you see the boy with Scorpius?" he asked her. "I want him. Badly. It's making me forget about things like my hair and my clothes."

"It's okay. Xavier was nice." Caspar assured Scorpius. He glanced around for a moment, then leaned in and pressed their lips together. "Maybe I could spend the night tonight. If you want."

"He is." Cepheus nodded and then shrugged. "He and I aren't friends or anything. I just needed a date to this thing or Mum would have given me problems. You know how she is." He looked at James and elbowed him. "Stop it."

Aurora's eyes moved over Caspar Longbottom. "I know him. Caspar. He's not your usual type, is he? I'm surprised you can see past his hair." She paused. "He kind of looks like Cepheus, in an uglier way."

"Okay," Scorpius agreed, smiling at the kiss and then brushing their fingers together. "I'd like to be able to get some alone time with you before school starts again. You'll have to give me your choir schedule so I can figure out when I'll get to see you between classes and practices. At least I'm not in any clubs."

"What?" James looked down at Cepheus and laughed. He thought it was adorable, how much the other boy objected to him being around. "I'm just being nice, sweetie. If you tell everyone you don't like me then being a good date is going to be a lot harder."

Draco wasn't sure if he liked the fact that Cepheus's date was so obviously enjoying all of this, but maybe it was better than having an uncomfortable, quiet, awkward boy at the table with them. "I'm sure your mother appreciates you making an effort."

"Please don't compare him to Cepheus. Cepheus said the same thing," Xavier said, making a face. He looked down at Aurora and then wrapped an arm around her, pulling her close. "He's not my usual type, but type doesn't really matter when you fall for someone. And he's... I really like him, Rory. I haven't felt this way before. And he's not as devoted to Scorpius as he wants to be. We had sex." He paused. "Are you old enough for this conversation?"

"Why aren't you in any clubs?" Caspar asked as he looked his boyfriend over. "Don't you think you should join something? It'll look good on job applications."

Cepheus nodded at his father and then pulled James aside. "Don't hit on my family members." He told him. "It's weird. Especially since we shagged."

"Please. I'm plenty old enough for this conversation. I may be just a girl, but I'm not stupid." Aurora looked at her brother. "I'm almost sure I probably know more than you do. My room is directly beside Mother and Rider's." She sighed softly. "Why would you sleep with Scorpius's boyfriend?"
