Harry Potter was 18 years old . He lived on his own and attended a local Private school in England for insanely rich people . His hobbies include writing and drawing erotic Yoai manga, being worshiped by every girl in school for his baby face good looks, and dodging every cute guy in school whenever he could. It wasn't just cute guys it was all guys. Harry just couldn't talk to them he'd blush and go mute avoiding eye contact all together. Of course he couldn't make eye contact for any reason with anyone.

His parents Lily and James Potter ran a family run publishing company. Potter Publishing. Harry was set for his career but he didn't really want his parents to know what kind of stuff he worked on . That's why he was at a rival company today. It was Riddle Publishing.

He wore a black suit, he only ever wore black. His midnight black hair while cut short was made of long strands that were curly at the ends making his hair look a mess. His eyes were a bright rich emerald green and though everyone said that he was the spitting image of his father and grandfather he was baby faced and looked very delicate. He was also rather short for his age. He could pass for mid teens if he wanted. He wore a satchel over his left shoulder making sure that it rested on his right hip it too was black.

He was currently sitting in front of a bunch of hot guys and a bunch of old wrinkled grandpa's with some cute girls and old women mixed in. As always he stared at the table his face bright red as they read his work.

"Well, Severus do you see a problem with this young man's work?" Tom Riddle the Head of the company asked a man with shoulder length black hair that looked in need of good wash.

"None ." the man said in a velvety voice that almost left Harry nothing more than a puddle on the floor."Just a question. "

"Yes , sir?" Harry asked, timidly.

"Why Riddle Publishing?" Severus asked, eyeing the only son of his worst enemy and ex lover. "Your father owns Potter Publishing." Everyone saw Harry tense. "I know him and your mother well in fact."

"Well, if you've read Hogwarts the Manga Magazine put out by Potter Publishing you'll know that they don't use my kind of work. " Harry answered trying to make a logical argument when in reality he just didn't want his parents to find out until the magazine came out with his work in it. "Also I do not want to be accused of riding my father's coat tails. This is what I want to do with my life and I already know that my parents wont approve. I don't care. "

"Very well, I'll look in to getting you with one of editors. " Severus said, "There are only five of us the department . It says here you're still in school..."

"That wont be a problem I can assure you." Harry said, instantly. " I graduate in three weeks and don't do any after school clubs or activities so I'll be able to focus all my attention on my work don't worry."

"Very well." Severus agreed then looked at Harry's address.

"Problem, Severus?" Tom asked, seeing the piercing look on Severus' face.

"Looks like I'll be taking on our new little prodigy personally." Severus sneered, "He lives right next door to me."

"Convenient." Tom sneered, he'd already known that. He'd wanted it to be Severus who took on this up coming star. Severus was the best editor he had in yoai manga. He knew Severus had problems with the Potter family but hoped that his job would mean more to him than an old grudge. "Remember to treat our little prodigy like a true prince."

'I'm dead so dead!' Harry thought to himself, ' How'd I get in this situation?! I'm in a two seater car with a hot older man whose my new editor and lives next door to me! If I get a nose bleed now it's going to be so embarrassing! I have to calm down! but he keeps talking! and man his voice! '

Severus glanced over at the teen in his passenger seat. He noted that his face was still red and he refused to make eye contact.

"You live a lone?" He asked unnecessarily . The apartments were one bedroom. He noted out of the corner of his eye that Harry nodded. He cleared his throat. God dammit the boy was cute! He forced the thought from his head. "No pet?"

Harry shook his head. No he didn't have a pet. Severus growled to himself . It was like talking to a brick wall. They were silent for awhile.

"When was the last time you ate anything?" Severus finally asked, he'd noted earlier that the boy seemed way too thin.

"I...I've been a little si-sick lately. " Harry lied, in truth he didn't eat because he had a disorder that steamed from his mother always complaining loudly about how much eat and telling him if he kept eating like that at his height he'd get fat. His mother was a bit crazy but it'd stuck. Though now that he thought about it that could be the reason that he was so short. He'd noted that he barley reached Severus' chest. He hated being short. Of course he didn't want anyone to find out about his problem. "I-I''ll eat at home..."

"You should take better care of yourself." Severus stated. "You're going to have a lot of fans when this comes out."

"Y-You d-Don't k-Know that."

Severus glanced at Harry again. Why would the son of James Fucking Potter have such confidence issues? He almost jumped when Harry's cell phone began ringing. He saw Lily's name pop up and was shocked when Harry instantly hung up. Now that was interesting .
