Chapter 1 - - Dropping In
It was the last period before lunch for the seventh years, Potions. Professor Slughorn was chortling merrily about some famous niece's cousin's mother's father's nephew. Students milled around diligently working on their potions, while anticipating lunch eagerly.
20 years later a young man had just disappeared from his Potions class. Said young man was the newest hero of the wizarding world, after killing yet another Dark lord threatening to take over the world, after all that's what Dark lords do, plot, rampage, kill and generally cause chaos till some young naïve hero, pampered from birth, comes along and vanquishes said dark lord, and then rides away into the sunset with his fair maiden.
However such only happens in fairytales and as much as he wished it Harry James Potter didn't live in one. For one our hero had never been pampered, no rather he had been a house elf since he could walk. Then after an abusive 11 years, young Harry was rescued by the great half-giant Hagrid, and thus began his story.
Now, he was 17, single, ridiculed by his would be friends, hated by his house, gay, and completely and utterly in love with his godparents. He had been secretly lusting after Remus Lupin and Sirius Black, his now dead father's best non-traitor friends at school. He had been with young Miss Ginerva Weasley that was until he had deemed it stupid to continue his façade of straight orientation. He had told his ex-girlfriend to her face a few days after the vanquishing of Lord Voldemort, his exact words had been, "Hey, Ginny, you know I love you but it is family love, and I don't think I can be the one you need, because I might, just a bit be gay, you know?"
And her exact words had been, "fuck off you fucking bastard, we were supposed to get married!! Wait till I tell everyone!"
And tell she did, though a few half-truths and straight out lies had been thrown into the mix, Half truths like, "he came out gay after I caught him," and, "he had been spending a lot of time with Malfoy," the Malfoy bit was true however, though ick Harry wasn't into blondes, nope, but Neville was.
Mr. Potter had been playing matchmaker between his friend Neville and his newest Slytherin friend Draco Malfoy. It was this particular newly formed friendship that saved Harry from the fury of stupid rampaging Gryffindors. Miss Ginerva had taken it upon herself to become the bane of Harry Potter's existence, and the ugly manipulative witch see was only helped when she convinced the other Gryffindors that Mr. Potter had been cheating on her with Malfoy, and dumped her after taking her virginity. Of course anyone in their right mind would know that Ginerva Weasley was a new kind of whore, that lost her virginity at age 13 in the astronomy tower with Terry Boot. But Mr. Ronald Weasley, now former best friend to Harry, had refused to believe that his perfect little sister had done anything with anyone, steady become the second bane of Harry's existence.
But of course the final blow was Hermione Granger turning away from him, the poor girl was crazy for Mr. Weasley and would have done anything to get him. Of course that anything became, spitting him her best friends face, even though she herself had once found Ginerva in the Charms classroom, half dressed, sucking off Mr. Ernie Macmillan. But as they say love is can make people do crazy things, and yes Karma too had played a key role in the ruining of all Harry Potter's belongings.
The entire Gryffindor 7th year had taken themselves up to Harry's Dormitory, and proceeded to destroy Harry's belongings. Said young man was able to escape with only the marauders map, Neville and several broken bones and bruises. Much to his horror he discovered that his former best friends had not only incinerated all his clothes, Harry's most prized possessions, his invisibility cloak and his only photos of his parents, were now also ashes.
Running down the corridors they came across a surprised Albus Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, and a rather more sympathic than his usual stoic self Severus Salazar Snape. Once of course the story was told Harry and Neville found themselves dressed in Slytherin robes, thanks to a furious Snape who now thought of Harry Potter, the former bane of his existence as a son, and Neville Longbottom his second least favourite student as a godson-in-law, it was no secret in Slytherin that Draco Malfoy fully intended to marry Neville.
So of course the next day when they showed up at breakfast donning Slytherin robes, there was a not-so-silent uproar. All of Hogwarts failed to see how Harry Potter icon of light could be anywhere near the dark side of the school. Said icon only smirked and plonked down across from Neville and Draco, high fiving the blonde, before letting Neville snog the Draco's breath away, in plain view of the rest of the castle. The shouts of indignation died as the rest of Hogwarts save Dumbledore and the Slytherins, gaped at the right out bizarre sight of Ice prince Malfoy kissing the cowardly Gryffindor.
But then of course once the initial shock wore off, the Gryffindors were shamefaced. Not that Harry cared much, truthfully he was glad Ginny's accusation had been taken the way it was. He now knew where his so called friend's loyalties lay. Harry looked up briefly to catch sight of a glaring Ginerva Weasley placed firmly of the lap of some Ravenclaw that was desperately trying to win Ginny's attention. He grinned at Draco who had also noticed Ginny, the blonde winked before once again locking lips with his boyfriend.

The first 7th year class of the day happened to be Potions much to Severus Snape's delight. He had long come to terms with Harry explaining that his snarkyness was only due to his spy position in the war, and he was actually good friends with Harry's parent's and thanks to Lily was Harry's honorary Godfather, along with Sirius and Remus. Severus was in fact smirking in anticipation; he was going to show off his newly found godfather position by flaunting his powers as a teacher.
By the time they had all arrived, Severus had already written up their potion. It was Curatio Potion, a highly explosive concoction that was also a highly effective healing potion. He noticed Draco and Harry had already started, pairing up. Poor Neville had not been able to make it into the NEWT potion class, though somewhat by miracle Weasley had, no doubt thanks to Grangers meddling.
Severus's gaze strayed to Harry. The boy's growing infatuation with Black and Lupin was becoming increasingly desperate. He had seen those longing looks Harry cast at the couple; he had also seen the longing looks cast back. No doubt the fools were too dense to realize that they all wanted each other. But of course that was your Gryffindors with their foolish morals. He rolled his eyes slightly, before he began his rounds around the classroom.
Gryffindor was near negative points when it happened. A furious Ronald Weasley glaring at Harry, as Snape took more points for Dean's pathetic attempt at a potion, flung over a piece of Bloomslang skin, that flew across the room and promptly landed in Harry's near perfect potion. Nothing happened for a moment, until the potion turned an ugly shade of brown, and began fizzing and hissing and all in a moment there was a blast and icon of the light and all things not evil vanished, taking half the potion classroom with him.
20 years in the past, Professor Slughorn's speech was interrupted by a loud bang and the appearance of a small elfin raven haired boy covered in soot, who promptly passed out.
