They were lying in their bed; the heavy dark blue curtains were opened, only two spiral columns blocked their view of the glowing fireplace. Severus´s fingers were lazily playing with his husband´s hair. Harry was nearly dropping off. He was exhausted after the full day even though their new house welcomed them fondly. He was grateful that they were wizards. Moving had to be terrible for Muggles. He sighed. Severus turned his head and looked at him.

“I feel so good under the stars...”

“You mean – under the canopied bed,” Harry objected.

“No, under the stars... in your eyes.”

 

A/N2: In Czech canopied bed means bed with heaven (literally), so I don´t know if it´s clear... It was a momentary idea.

That's lovely. I love the literal translation of the canopy--a beautiful metaphor.

Thank you! I am so sorry that in English it sounds differently but never mind:-)

[elmyraemilie]

It makes a strong word-picture, so no apologies! I too am impressed with your command of English. We who were raised speaking English struggle with it sometimes, and you speak it very well!

[patolozka]

Oh, thank you:-) It could be one and half year of very intense translating or because I like your language and I prefer films in original than dubbing, and songs... Oh how I love some songs! Romantic soul...
And English is everywhere. I would like to manage French as well, but I have no time for it, even though I had it for 5 years at school. But it was before university and 8 years of different udecation are 8 years, you know...
