Harry x reader where Harry flirts with the reader like how James did with Lily
“Are you my patronus? Because you’re my ‘deer'est.”
You didn’t look up from your homework as you studied on the floor of the Gryffindor common room. “Your patronus is a stag.”
There was a shake of your head, as you still continued looking at your homework, “That’s a lazy pickup line and you know it Harry, you ought to be ashamed of yourself. You’re better than this.”
He sighed, “Well then what sort of pick up lines do you like?”
“I don’t like pickup lines.”
“I hope you know that limits my options.”
There was a pause before– “So how am I supposed to flirt with you if you don’t like flirting?”
“I like flirting, I just don’t like pickup lines.”
You rolled your eyes before you finally looked up at him. “I like flirting– I like lingering touches and nice conversations. I like feeling like someone can’t take their eyes off of me. I like feeling like our conversations are meaningful. I do not like puns that are supposed to make me drop my pants.” very quickly you turned back to your homework. “Now leave me be for a while Potter– I need to finish my charms paper.”
Harry stared for a moment, unsure of how he could accomplish such a thing before doing as you wished and leaving you alone.
Flirting was weird. He didn’t think he liked it.
