Summary: By the lake.

Draco has an idea of what he looks like under moonlight. Pasty, ghoul-like, something in the process of stepping out of a nightmare. He has looked at his reflection in the lake, watched his pinched, unhappy face ripple with the water.
"You're beautiful," his companion says.
Draco shivers. He forgot to pull on his cloak. His lover's voice always affects him like this.
"You shouldn't be out here," he says. "You could be caught."
Sirius Black's rough chuckle stirs something dark inside him. Draco turns to look at him as he says, "You worry too much."
Draco cannot deny him.

This is such an evocative scene, the contrast with the self-reflection and then encounter.
