The lion and the eagle || Godric & Rowena

Godric watched, shocked as Rowen seemed to not care at all as she quickly disrobed. He felt his mouth go dry and he licked at his lips, unable to take his eyes from her. She was beautiful, no matter what and it only made Godric want her even more. He shook his head as she came back to him, giving her a shy smile and nodded, watching her turn around, her bare back and the soft fabric of her dress a sharp contrast. He did up her laces slowly and carefully and right before he tied the last knot, Godric dipped his head and pressed a slow kiss to her skin. “All done my lady.”

Rowena had noticed the way Godric acted as she stood bare for a moment. She could feel his eyes traveling over her skin, his love and passion for her more evident. She didn’t know where the boldness to undress in front of him came from but after the other night spent in his company, Rowena felt a deep trust in him, deep enough not to feel embarrassment as he looked at her naked body. He finished fastening her dress and she could feel his warm lips kissing her skin. For a moment she closed her eyes and let out sigh in happiness. When Godric’s small demonstration of affection was over, she turned to face him, a smile on her face. Rowena was tempted to kiss him but she knew that if they started kissing there in her chambers, the events could follow the same pattern as the last time he was there. They had planned their ride out, if they started kissing they wouldn’t leave the room. It was so very tempting, but maybe after their ride they could return to her chambers or go to his. “Let us go, my love” she smiled and began to walk away, waiting for him by the door.

Godric nodded, walking with her to her rooms. He glanced down at her gown, noticing the fine material and the way it clung and yet moved with her and he smiled. Rowena was beautiful, and her clothing only added to it. But he felt that even dirty and in homespun she would stil be the most beautiful woman he’d ever laid eyes on. As she flicked her door open and they entered, Godric smiled. Her rooms always made him so, because of the memories they held for him. “I will wait here for you to change Rowena.” He kissed her knuckles and gave her a wink.

The doors were closed after they entered and she headed towards the trunk where she kept her dresses. She picked a blue dress made out of a thicker fabric than the silk one she was wearing at the moment. It was a simple one, very comfortable and fit for going out with Godric for a walk or a ride. Rowena undid the front laces from her dress and her dress fell to the floor. She was aware of Godric standing near her but she was no longer as shy as before when he saw her body for the first time. The Ravenclaw lady took the other dress and put it on. She turned to face Godric and gave him a smile “Would you help me with these, please?” The laces from this dress had to be fastened behind so she turned her back to him, taking her hair over her shoulder so he could fasten the laces.

Godric liked the idea of learning from her, smiling as she spoke it. “I believe you shall make an excellent teacher Lady Ravenclaw.” His smile grew as she kissed his lips quickly and took his arm. He tapped his long fingers gently over her hand before escorting her from the library. “Shall we stop of at your rooms, get a cloak and gloves, or will you be alright as you are?” 

“I will certainly do my best to be a good teacher, worthy enough of having you as my student” Rowena said with a smile and laughed a bit. Certainly having the great Godric Gryffindor as her student in potions, a subject she was still working hard to perfection, ought to be an interesting experience. “Oh yes, I will certainly be needing both my cloak and my gloves. I should change my dress as well, I suppose” The blue gown she was wearing was way too fancy for a stride or ride outside the castle. Not that she cared too much about clothes, but it was unnecessary to ruin such a fine dress and also, the Ravenclaw lady wished to be more comfortable by wearing a simpler dress. So they headed towards her chambers. A quick and agile move of her wand opened the wooden door of her room once they arrived there.

Godric nodded, smiling down at her. “You might have to help me, I’ve always been a bad study when it comes to potions. But I’d like to try.” He returned her kiss, smiling as she tugged him out of the library, fingers intwined. He had forgotten about Salazar and Helga and almost walked through the door when she suddenly stopped and let go of his hand. He looked at her, frowning a bit before shaking his head. “It’s alright.” He said softly, dropping a quick kiss to the top of her head. He held out his arm for her the way any lord would for his lady and smiled. “This will work.”

“Then you shall be my very first student in the subject. You will be able to judge if I am good teacher or not” she smiled after Godric confessed he wasn’t very good at potions. He would be able to help her in learning more and also in improving flawed teaching skills in potions if there were any. She hoped Godric would not resent her for letting go of his hand. If she were able she would walk around the entire castle holding his hand to let the world know she was his, only his. Unfortunately things weren’t like that. Rowena smiled when he kissed the top of her head and before he could move away she stood on her toes and kissed his lips lightly. Then she placed her arm around his, like a proper lord and lady would do.

The lion and the eagle || Godric & Rowena

godric-the-bold:

Salazar’s hatred for anyone not born of pure blood ancestry made Godric furious. The screaming matches that he and his best friend had held made him upset and he worried for their friendship. Godric would give his life to make this school work and didn’t care what anyone said, but Salazar was doing more harm then good in his opinion and he didn’t know what to do any longer. Godric tilted his head towards Rowena’s hand, trying to give her a hopeful look. “Perhaps I can look over some of the books, figure a few things out and help you with potions. It couldn’t hurt….” He tried to relax and quickly wrapped his arms around her as she moved closer to him. “Yes, please…that sounds wonderful.” Godric always felt more alive when he was out, being active and doing something rather than stuck inside all day.

“I would really appreciate your help Godric, thank you” Rowena smiled when he offered his assistance with her hard study of potions. Besides, they would be able to see each other more often if he helped her with that. Finally, her time working would not be keeping her away from him. “Let us go, then” she let go of his embrace and gave him a soft, quick kiss on the lips before intertwining her hand with his and walking to the exit of the library. Just as she was about to open the door into the hallway she remembered Helga and Salazar were not supposed to know about their relationship and even though she didn’t want to let go of Godric’s hand she had to.

Godric’s smile turned sour as she spoke of Salazar and the half-bloods and muggle borns. He couldn’t understand his oldest friends aversion to them. They were just as needy for shelter and teaching as a pureblood witch or wizard, perhaps even more so, if they didn’t have at least a knowledgable parent or guide. He held onto Rowena, trying to take a bit of comfort from her. “I’m glad you’ll be teaching them, I’m a failure at potions….” He rested his forehead against hers and sighed. “I do not understand this Rowena….not at all.”

Rowena watched with sad eyes how Godric’s smile faded away. He seemed troubled and she didn’t like to see him that way but she understood why he would be, for she felt the same way concerning Salazar and his denial for students that were not pureblooded wizards. Her hands gently caressed his cheek, hoping to provide some comfort for him, her fingers gently trailing to his jaw and chin. “I could not allow those children to remain without a teacher. My talent lays in charms rather than potions, but I have learned so much these past few days. Hopefully I will be half as good as Salazar already is in the subject when the students get here” She gave him a small smile. “I do not understand Salazar’s reasons either but I accepted his conditions so he would not leave. We cannot afford to loose him before even starting” She moved closer and embraced him, resting her head against his shoulder. “Let us go away for a while. We both have worked so much lately and I missed you… Would you like to go out for a ride with me?” she whispered softly next to his ear.
