Late Nights in the Office

Something a bit different from me this time. The headcanon channel on the @harrypocter server has opened my eyes to the amazing-ness that is Auror!Padma.

Thanks to @lanaturnergetup for beta-ing!

'The Witch Weekly Mail-In Matchmaking Service promises to match you with compatible singles from our extensive database! Just owl through your questionnaire and a recent photo and we'll do the rest!'

It was a joke, something Padma and Anthony did after a few too many drinks. But when a familiar face shows up in the pile of profiles, Padma can't help but be intrigued.

If only she hadn't packed it away with the files she'd borrowed from the office.

Read on AO3

It was late, so late that Padma had lost count of how many cups of coffee she’d had, but here she was, in the break room, leaning against the counter so she could read the file in her hands while she waited for the water to boil for the two more cups of the horrible instant coffee the Ministry provided. She’d give anything for a decent latte, but everything was closed at this time of night, so crappy instant coffee was their only source of caffeine.

With the coffees made, both with a generous helping of milk and sugar to make it palatable, Padma tucked the file under her arm so she could carry them back to Harry’s office.

It was only a month since Harry had been promoted to Deputy Head Auror, which came with the added benefit of a fancy office, complete with a surprisingly comfy couch. She nudged open the door with her hip and found Harry exactly where she’d left him, sitting cross-legged on the floor, surrounded by files pertaining to their case.

She hadn’t worked much with Harry in the early years of their time in the Auror department. While he had joined straight after the war, she’d chosen to complete her final year at Hogwarts. She’d wanted to complete her NEWTs, but more importantly, she wanted a year where she could just be a teenager whose biggest worry was whether she could get an O on her DADA exam and who she’d go to Hogsmeade with, instead of what disaster would befall the school that year.

By the time she’d completed her training, Harry naturally partnered with Ron on most cases, and then with Neville following Ron’s departure. It was only the year before, after Neville had left, that Padma approached Harry for help on her case, a string of robberies of Muggle jewellery stores that had evidence of magical involvement.

They worked well together; Padma’s logic and ability to find patterns balanced well with Harry’s gut instinct and his talent for reading suspects. It wasn’t anything official, but more often than not, Padma found herself asking Harry for his advice, or would find a note from him seeking her opinion on a lead.

It was nice having someone like Harry that she could rely on at work, even if it did result in her name ending up in the gossip columns more than she would like. No doubt she would see an article there sometime this week. All it would take was the wrong person to see them leaving the office together, late one night, and she would be the ‘exotic beauty’ who was ‘tempting him away from his faithful wife’ (even though last week they’d claimed that Ginny was off having a torrid affair with Oliver Wood).

Rita Skeeter really needed to come up with some new material.

‘Is it just me or is there a discrepancy in the transactions between the husband and wife’s vaults?’ Harry’s distracted question pulled Padma back to the room, where they were meant to be searching for any kind of link between the sudden appearance of a new party potion on the black market and their suspect's movements and financial records in preparation for their interviews in the morning. He handed her the parchment he had been reading and leaned back against the couch, roughly rubbing his face in an attempt to wake up.

Padma took a look at the list of transactions he’d handed her, noting the ones he’d marked, ‘No, these are going to the wife’s second vault.’

‘She has a second vault?’

‘It’s a common practice for daughters of wealthy pureblood families. It will be one that she’s inherited as part of the terms of her marriage. She might have only been able to access the funds after she produced an heir, or the money might need to go back to her father’s family after her death.’ Padma twisted around so she could reach behind her and grabbed the file she’d been reading at home the night before that had the details for the additional vault. ‘Here, these are the transaction records for it.’

She handed him both the folders and checked her watch to find it was past two in the morning. With a sigh, she drank deeply from her coffee, grimacing at the taste as she picked up another file. Rich people really had too much money.

‘Padma?’

‘Hm?’

‘Why am I looking at a profile of Dean Thomas that’s telling me he particularly likes ‘taking time at the end of each day to unwind while sketching the beauty around him?’

Padma looked up sharply and easily recognised the parchment Harry held up. The blue Witch Weekly logo was stamped in the corner, Dean’s face grinned at her from his photo and a list of his attributes were listed below.

It had arrived the night before, along with about ten others from the Witch Weekly Mail-In Matchmaking Service . It had been a laugh, something she’d signed up for after too many wines with Anthony Goldstein during their monthly catch-up to moan about their jobs and their endless singledom.

Initially, they’d been tossed aside, but curiosity and boredom after reading endless lines of financial records had gotten the better of her. She’d flipped through the profiles, faces of unknown, unfamiliar wizards staring back at her; some showed a group of wizards where she had no idea who she was meant to be looking at and others seemingly decided that showing off their broomstick was more important than their actual face. The bios weren’t much better, with claims of ‘looking for a partner in adventure’ or that they ‘weren’t interested in endless letters’, rather that they wanted to go straight out for a date.

Looking to hook up and never write again was more likely.

Too bad Witch Weekly still refused to offer a ‘witch seeking witches’ option for their matchmaking service.

But then, suddenly, she wasn’t looking at the face of another stranger, but at someone very familiar to her.

She’d laughed at first, exhaustion from the case and the surprise at seeing Dean’s face staring out at her from the stack of Quidditch bros and unemployed ‘entrepreneurs’ giving her the giggles.

The bio was a bit ridiculous, not something she could imagine him writing for himself. Maybe it was all a trick. A prank played on him by one of his mates.

She’d put it aside, planning to show Parvati so they could a good giggle over it the next time she saw her, but Padma’s attention kept wandering, and she found herself picking up the unassuming piece of parchment once more. She’d gotten up to make a chai, and found herself reading over his bio again while she drank. His photo smiled and winked on a loop, and she started to feel her heart flutter. So she’d done the sensible thing and flipped the page over to focus on her work.

And clearly had packed it up with the financial records she’d been checking.

In Harry’s office, she lunged over the files on the floor, her cheeks burning as she tried to snatch the page from him, but he held it out of her reach. ‘‘ Dean is looking for a woman who puts family first and enjoys nights in on the couch.’ Is that you, Padma?’ asked Harry with a teasing grin.

She glared at him and managed to snatch the parchment from his hand. ‘I think I liked you better when you were a string bean who could barely look at a girl.’

Infuriatingly, Harry just grinned, unfazed by her insult. He nodded at the paper in her hand, ‘What is that anyway?’

‘You’ve never seen a matchmaking profile before? Oh right, you married your Hogwarts sweetheart.’

He laughed. ‘Technically we only started dating again after I’d left Hogwarts.’

‘ Technically , you’re annoying, Potter.’

Harry just grinned again, and silence fell across the room as they returned to their work.

She managed to get through another couple of pages of transactions before her mind wandered back to Dean’s profile.

‘Anthony and I thought it would be a laugh,’ Harry looked up at her, face questioning, ‘signing up for the matchmaking service. It was a joke, really. I’d forgotten about it until last night when all these profiles showed up. I must have accidentally packed Dean’s away in the file.’

‘Right, okay.’ Harry said, turning back to the page again.

But Padma couldn’t concentrate. She kept thinking of Dean’s face, winking out at her from the page instead of focusing on the lines of numbers that weren’t making sense.

‘I’m not going to owl him,’ she said. Harry looked up again and just nodded before once again turning back to the parchment in his hands.

But she still couldn’t focus. She tapped her quill against the page while watching a beetle crawl along the wall behind Harry and slip under the door. ‘Should I owl him?’ she asked.

This time when Harry dragged his gaze from the page he was reading he had a faintly amused look on his face, ‘Do we do this?’

‘Do what?’

‘Talk about our love lives.’

They did! Sometimes. Well, not really. Mostly only if something exciting had happened at one of Ginny’s matches, or if the latest date Padma had gone on had been hilariously awful.

‘It’s not my love life,’ grumbled Padma, ‘it’s me considering going on a date with an old friend.'

‘You and Dean were friends?’

‘Friendly enough.’

They fell silent, but nothing could get her focus back on the parchment in front of her. It was when Harry yawned that she threw them down. ‘Right, this is hopeless.’

Harry checked his watch with a grimace, then sighed. ‘We’ve got enough for the interview tomorrow. If that comes up with nothing we’ll come back to the files.’

‘You couldn’t have said that two hours ago?’

‘Two hours ago I thought there was more to be found!’

Padma flicked the crumpled-up paper from their long-eaten dinner of stale sandwiches at his face and started packing away the folders.

As they were heading to the Atrium to floo home, Padma’s thoughts kept straying to the parchment tucked safely in her bag. What she didn’t know was that at that moment, a letter was sitting on her kitchen table, from the same Wizard who hadn’t stopped thinking about her since he’d received her profile via Owl Post.

"straight as a ruler"

Hey yall, here’s the long-awaited deamus fic that we’ve all been waiting for! If you want to follow my tumblr, it’s on my instagram profile now :). And if anyone from tumblr wants to follow my instagram, my handle’s @em.jade_dragon on there! Do like, share, save, reblog etc my posts, it really helps! More interaction (i.e interaction with my stories, commenting) would be very much appreciated :D. Anyways, without further ado, let’s get into things!

This is an eighth-year AU. TW/CW: food, alcohol, parties. stay safe everyone!

After the war, Professor McGonagall (now headmistress) invited all of the previous seventh-years back to Hogwarts to give them the chance to learn all of what they missed out on, as well as complete their NEWTs if they wished to do so. Most of the students did end up returning, even though a lot of them already had jobs (or offers that they had accepted).

The “eighth-years” were given their very own common room, and Dean was very glad for this.

It had been a relatively easy Saturday, and now, it was around 6pm, and the sun had just set. And because it was a Saturday, everyone was prepared for the event they all looked forward to - the weekly eight-year party. When Dean finally arrived on scene, albeit slightly late due to some solo quidditch practise (they didn't have any teams, but the eighth-years often had fun matches that were inter-house) to take his mind off something that had been bugging him for a while: Seamus. he couldn't quite put a finger on why he was having that nagging, butterfly-feeling in his stomach whenever he thought of his late best friend, but he kept on ignoring it hoping it'd go a way. He had the slightest suspicion what it might've been - after all, Dean was pretty sure he was pansexual, so it wasn't completely unexpected. But he'd intentionally tried to forget about it. He had, for a little, whilst he was outside, but now, as he entered the common room, he grew queasy again knowing his best friend would be looking for him.

As soon as he stepped foot inside, he noticed that a lot of people were already half-wasted. He must've been later than he thought.

"Dean-y, there you are!" He turned to see Ginny Weasley bounding towards him cheerfully, her eyes a little glassy. Other than that, she appeared to be pretty sober. "Gin, hey," Dean replied, giving her a light hug. They'd dated for a short while previously, but had broken it off after they both realised they were better of as friends. He was glad for that - they'd never have worked out, not when Ginny was practically in love with another classmate of theirs (spoiler alert - it wasn't Harry). He knew she, Neville and Luna had snuck into the party again. Not that anybody minded.

Ginny laughed loudly, and ran a hand through her cropped shoulder-length hair. She'd reportedly gotten Neville to cut it for her. "Needed a change", Dean remembered her telling him a month back. It suited her. "Dean, helloOo?" Ginny waved her hand in his face, and Dean blinked. "Come on, let's go say hi to everyone else!" she said, and promptly dragged him to the end corner of the room. There, on the couch, sat the golden trio, squished in with the bronze trio group. Neville and Luna were there too - Neville and Blaise were engaged in a flirty conversation on the floor, and Luna smiling fondly at them. She turned when Dean and Ginny approached.

"Oh, hello, Dean. How was quidditch practise?" she asked sweetly. He told her it was fine and she nodded. "Got a case of wrack spurts around you. Seamus, too."

Dean wondered what it meant. He was about to ask but before he could Ginny had strolled up to her girlfriend and had begun kissing Luna rather passionately. Sighing, he sat down near Blaise.

Hermione and Ron were cackling loudly with Pansy, who was telling a story involving Draco and the giant squid. Draco was silently sulking, leaning against Harry who was playing mindlessly with his partner's hair. "Dean, mate, you made it!" Harry said, nodding at him.

He smiled slightly. "Yeah. What'd I miss?" "Well, Dray here's been traumatised by Pansy and Ron and 'Mione-" "-They were not!-" Pansy cut in, now listening to the conversation as Hermione and Ron started discussing something about Percy Weasley and his new relationship with Oliver Wood.

Dean and Harry laughed. Malfoy scowled, but their eyes were light. "-Anyways, Ron and 'Mione and I had a fun time teasing Blaise and Nev, and at some point we were all dancing to ABBA music but we settled down again." Harry continued.

Ron nodded. He made a terrible impression of Parvati and Lavender, who had been singing along, before he stopped and seemed to remember something. "Oh yeah, and Seamus came looking for you. Not sure where he's gone now, but Luna said something about some girl rejecting him and now he's probably sulking-" Luna, by this point, had tuned into the conversation, with Ginny now sitting in her lap and gazing lovingly at her. "I never said she was a she, Ron. But yes, he had quite a lot of fuzz around his head." "You should go check on him, mate, he's your bestie!" Ginny suddenly exclaimed, her voice slurring. Dean nodded and got up, exiting the scene.

***

Despite having left his circle of friends rather swiftly, Dean had been interrupted several times for small chats and drinks with people in the room before he could even start searching for Seamus. He'd heard the latest gossip from Padma Patil and Wayne Hopkins, been given a bottle of fire whisky from Theo Nott, and had discussed the uses of owl feathers with owl enthusiast Michael Corner. At this point he'd gotten rather tired and was a tad bit intoxicated.

He ended exiting the common room and heading down into a more quiet hallway to try and sober up, when he'd heard quiet sniffling in the corner. Curious, Dean cautiously approached the noise to find Seamus sitting hunched against the wall, a bottle cradled in his palms. When Dean approached him, Seamus looked up and wiped the tears from his eyes rather swiftly.

"Guess you finally decided to turn up whilst your best mate got his heart broken, huh?" he said bitterly, his Irish accent coming out thicker than it usually did. Dean's heart melted a little, and he felt incredibly guilty. "Seamus, I'm so sorry I was clearing my head out a bit at the quidditch pitch and lost track of time, I feel awful I-" Seamus put a hand up, telling him to stop. He stood up and put the bottle on the floor. Dean couldn't help but notice how soft Seamus' hair looked tonight, and how toned his muscles were through the thin school shirt. Seamus, unfortunately, noticed Dean's staring. "What're you staring at for?" "I- nothing", Dean said quickly, awkwardly scratching his neck, looking away at the wall for a second. He'd forgotten how incredibly fit the Irish boy was, even though he was both taller and more muscular than Seamus. They stood in silence a bit, before Seamus spoke up. "I asked someone out today. Thought I'd give m'self a shot, y'know? But they said no. It wasn't a girl who- who rejected me. It-" he breathed out shakily, and Dean realised how incredibly shattered he was, and put a hand on Seamus' arm without thinking about it too much. "-It was a guy. Stephen something from Ravenclaw."

Dean didn't know what to say. He had wondered if his best friend had been 'bent', but never really thought about it too deeply. Inwardly he felt his guts churn and he suddenly felt strangely content, but he wasn't sure why "I- I'm so sorry mate, that's awful," he began, and trying to lighten the atmosphere, continued, "Maybe Steph wasn't into white guys?" His best mate laughed, and it was a broken, hollow sound. "Thanks Dean-o, really makes meh feel better. Perhaps he's into you, eh?" "I- well I'm not into him-" he began, but Seamus cut him off. "Bloody no shit, you're straight as a ruler!"

"But I'm not. Straight as a ruler, you say. I'm- I think I'm pan, Shay." "I- what?" Somehow, without Dean realising, Seamus had brought his hands onto his chest. And now all he could feel was his calloused palms digging slightly onto his chest, over his erratically beating heart. "I thought I was the gay bloke out of the two of us! Like, I dunno, at least the only fruity one."

"I guess you thought wrong." Dean said awkwardly.

"I guess I did." They stood there for another minute, staring at each other.

And suddenly Dean remembered that he was still holding onto Seamus rather tightly, so he made to let go, when he felt hands sliding down to his waist and gripping him. Astonished, he glanced up from staring at the floor and looked into his best mate's deep brown eyes. He reached his other hand out unconsciously, cupping his chin. "Oh, for fuck's sake!" Shay said, the lilt in his tongue sounding for some reason really hot.

Next thing Dean knew, Seamus had crashed his lips onto him, pushing him into the opposite wall of the narrow corridor.

He didn't respond at first. Seamus stopped for a second, pulling back. "Kiss me back, you dolt, or I swear to merlin I'll be punching that fucking sexy face of yours-" Next thing Seamus knew, Dean was snogging him back.
