Gravitation

A fic in the Physical-universe

By Mara202

Warnings/classifications: AU, geeky-ness, SLASH, weird humour.

Pairing: H/D, sort of.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters.

Author's notes: Takes place in the AU of Physical, a fic of mine that hasn't been written yet, except for a teaser/prologue. I had no idea how to incorporate these quotes into Physical, so instead I wrote this drabble.

Contains SLASH. Don't like? Don't read. Also contains humour of the nerdy kind.

It was another day at Hogwarts University of Exact Sciences, and Harry Potter had just finished his experiment -- an extremely interesting experiment, in which he had to determine the resistance of a resistor of ten kiloOhm -- as a certain blond Maths-student walked into his direction.

"Hey, Potter!" called the blond guy, known as Draco Malfoy, wearing an exceptionally wicked smirk.

"Malfoy," said Harry, cautiously. You never knew with these Maths-freaks, especially not Malfoy, who had a history of embarrassing him. Well, not this time!

"You know, Potter," he said, looking Harry into the eyes, "I think I'm attracted to you."

Harry's Experimental Physics partner, a Maths-student called Blaise Zabini, was watching the exchange with interest.

After a dramatic pause, Draco continued: "With a force of about... G m1 m2 divided by r squared. Which is close to non-existent, I might add." He started to walk off, laughing, but he hadn't counted on Harry's quick wits.

Harry said, his voice low and slightly husky: "You do realise that if I do this --" Harry walked up to him, "-- your attraction to me goes to infinity, do you?" and kissed him, thus effectively reducing their distance r to zero. 1

Before Draco could react, he pulled back and walked out of the classroom, inwardly grinning, leaving a quite dazed-looking Draco and a laughing Blaise behind.

"What the hell just happened?" Draco asked, subconsciously touching his lips.

Blaise snickered. "I'd say you got exactly what you asked for."

End!

1 ...thus effectively reducing their distance r to zero... -- Not entirely true. There's still a large enough distance between their centres of mass for the gravitational force to be negligible, since the constant G is only 6.673 x 10-11 N m2 kg-2.

Well... this was my first attempt at writing Harry/Draco slash, and my first attempt at writing a drabble. I don't particularly like the ending, but well... At least I got to annoy you all with geek-humour :P
