Graves/Newt - Arranged marriage

(Anonymous) 2016-12-08 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Newt and Graves are in an arranged marriage, and have been since Newt was eighteen, Newt's family having arranged the match to keep him out of trouble. Graves was expecting his partner to be older, and was disconcerted to find himself married to someone not even out of their teens, Newt was furious at the whole idea. Regardless, they came to an agreement - there's no expectation of love in the relationship, or sex, but they respect each other's autonomy and try to remain at least moderately friendly, and Newt gets the social cover and respectability of being married to Graves.
Newt doesn't even realise he's fallen in love with his husband until he comes back to New York after a year away researching his book, and finds Grindlewald impersonating Percival.
Bonus points for:
- Newt and Graves have ended up sleeping together occasionally in the years since they married, but on a purely convenient basis, as neither one of them wants to sleep around outside marriage and it is practical.
- Graves has loved Newt for years, but not wanted to pressure him into anything.
- At first Newt thinks the Credence thing means Percival is cheating on him.
