Their clothing was removed too eagerly for it to be folded neatly in a pile, on a chair or table, or hung up in the wardrobe. The room was dark, it was the middle of the night. The pair on the bed were about to have sex for the first time in their bonded lives together. The Dark Lord, Voldemort, newly returned to his thirty five year old state, and his husband, Severus Snape, his black hair now around his waist, were close together, anticipation clearly shown on their faces.
"I love you," Voldemort breathed, as he kissed down the side of his lovers jaw bone. Severus moaned lightly, he'd been waiting for this all day and now it was finally upon him, he meant to enjoy himself.
"I love you too," Severus replied, holding Voldemort's face in his hands and claiming the lips hungrily.
"Stop it, Severus," Voldemort scolded, and with a half hearted wave of his hand, Severus's wrists were secured tightly together, to the headboard. The older man chuckled as Severus squirmed at the feeling of the cold wood against his warm skin. "Remember that the bond needs this, won't you, love, the bond needs to know I'm in control."

-Severus sat up, panting, his eyes wide, trying to focus as the light from the open curtains hit him. He exhaled, looking around the bedroom. The bed was empty. Cursing himself, Severus rolled over and stood up off the bed, pausing only to take a sip of water that was on his bedside table. Next, he pulled a robe towards himself, shoved his feet into his shoes and walked into the sitting room. Voldemort was sat down at the table with a plate full of food, surveying the Daily Prophet with one eyebrow raised.
"Morning," he said, without looking up. When Severus didn't bother to reply, he looked up, a concerned frown on his features. "Dreams again?" he asked a moment later. Severus grunted, pouring himself coffee. Voldemort returned to his paper. "You should really consider taking a potion or something. You look ill."
"No," Severus replied as he took a sip of his drink. "It's not me. It's the bond."
Voldemort sighed, and folded up the paper. It was one week into his reign, and already there were problems. "Well, you need to do something about it. We have enough to deal with, without you getting ill on me." The Dark Lord stood up, and threw the paper onto the table. "I have a meeting with Vector and Grubby-Plank in a few minutes. Will you be there?"
"Of course," Severus replied tiredly. "I need a moment to recuperate and then I'll be ready."
Voldemort nodded. "I'll be in my office with them, then." With that, he turned on his heel and left the room. As soon as the door was shut, Severus dropped his head into his hands, and shut his eyes. What was wrong with him? Ever since the bond... Something hadn't felt right within him. Voldemort was getting annoyed with him, he could tell, the man never waited in bed for him anymore, knowing he would have to endure one of Severus's weird dreams, as if they were telling him something. It almost felt like they were growing apart, and that scared Severus more than anything in the world. They'd been bonded for a week, and already this sort of thing was upon them?
Shaking himself, he sat up, knowing that Voldemort could feel all of these emotions coming from him, and yet his husband did nothing to make him feel better. He just didn't understand why. He decided he would speak to Voldemort about it after the meeting with the teachers, perhaps drag the Dark Lord out with him for lunch to Knockturn Alley or something, so they could talk somewhere different.
"Just on my way, love," Severus reached out to Voldemort's mind.
"Take your time, they aren't with me yet," Voldemort replied. Severus left the room, and walked along the corridor and down the steps to the study. He opened the door, and went and sat down next to Voldemort, taking advantage of the empty room to place a kiss on his husbands lips. "Mm, Severus Snape, you bad man," Voldemort murmured, his eyes on Severus's lips.
Severus chuckled. "I was wondering if you wanted to take an hour out for some lunch today, you haven't had a moment to yourself in a week."
"Sounds wonderful," Voldemort replied. "Maybe we could invite Ginny and the Malfoy's?"
Severus shook his head. "When I said a moment for yourself, I meant a moment for us," he replied.
"Ah." Voldemort smiled knowingly. "Perhaps, love, we could have an evening all to ourselves tonight, go out for a meal and some drinks, and then come back to ah... Sleep..?"
Severus smirked. "That's more like it," he responded, and kissed Voldemort hard on the lips, until a knock on the door had to pull them apart. The Dark Lord squeezed his knee under the table as he spoke.
"Enter." The door opened, and Professor's Vector and Grubby-Plank entered, both of them obviously nervous. Severus smiled to them both, out of all the teachers at Hogwarts, he'd liked these two the most. "Have a seat," Voldemort said, carelessly gesturing to the two vacant seats in front of him. The two women sat down thankfully, and Severus was pleased to see their nerves drop down somewhat. "The purpose of this meeting is merely to ensure you two know and understand that you are going to remain Professor's of Hogwarts school, and to assure you both that little is going to change in your curriculum, and the way that you have taught the students in the past."
Severus cleared his throat. "If I may, Master, Professor Grubby-Plank had only been teaching half of Hagrid's lessons, I think it would benefit the students if she revisited the curriculum in several areas." He smirked at Grubby-Plank, who nodded vigorously.
"And you feel comfortable doing that unaided, Professor?" Voldemort asked the woman, one eyebrow raised.
"Yes, my Lord," she replied, and wonderfully well for the first time speaking to the Dark Lord.
"Excellent," Voldemort replied. "As we have decided that we will no longer be using History of Magic or Divination as subjects at the school, from the first year to the fourth, Care of Magical Creatures will be compulsory, and from the second year to the fourth, Arithmacy will also be compulsory. We did not think that the students could handle the complicated subject of Arithmacy in their first year," Voldemort added on as he looked at Vector. "So, I leave it entirely up to you what you will teach them. If you have any questions on the matter, speak with Severus, he is the experienced one in this subject."
Severus continued. "Also, myself and the Dark Lord have discussed this heatedly," Severus cast Voldemort a sideways glance, "Repeatedly, and we have come to the conclusion that it is not in the schools best interest for the ah... means that the Carrow's used last term in discipline. So, that means we will be going back to the conventional detentions. Since the House system has been removed, house points cannot be deducted."
Vector spoke for the first time. "What will happen to the sleeping arrangements, my Lord, if you don't mind me asking?"
Severus was pleased to see that she wasn't too nervous around the Dark Lord. "Dormitories, with passwords, and several common rooms. The Prefects and Head Boy and Girl will each receive their own suite of rooms," said Voldemort. "I expect some of the new teachers will be contacting you for aid in making their lesson plan and curriculum's. If there are any problems with them... Well, it shall be made clear that you two are high in Lord Voldemort's favour from the first time you meet them. Don't expect any problems then." Voldemort smiled thinly. "I shall send for you soon, when Hogwarts is in readiness to take you back again. For now, feel free to return to your homes."
Taking this as their dismissal, the two teachers stood and left the room, smiling happily at both men.
"That went well," said Severus with a smile.
"It did," Voldemort replied, searching his desk for something. "Oh for Merlin's Sake," he muttered. There was a knock on the door. "Come in," Voldemort called still searching.
"Did I choose a bad time?" Ginny Weasley asked, as she opened the door.
Voldemort cursed under his breath. "Whenever would you do that, Ginny?" he asked sarcastically. "Stay here, I'll be back in a minute." He walked past Ginny, and shut the door behind him, leaving the pair alone.
"Is he alright, Professor?" Ginny asked, moving forwards and sitting down.
"Stressed," Severus replied darkly. "I haven't seen you since the ball. Did I see you accompanied by young Mister Malfoy?"
Ginny blushed scarlet. "Yes, well, he's rather handsome."
"And?" Severus pressed, suddenly curious as to what was going on between his former students.
"He invited me to the ball with him after he took me back to my rooms. At first I thought it was only so he could be polite and please our Lord but clearly not, as we're out to dinner again tonight." Ginny smiled shyly. "I never thought I'd be having this conversation with you, Professor."
"I don't think any of us did," Severus said with a smile. "You must call me Severus, Ginny. I think we're past this Teacher-Student relationship now, don't you?"
Ginny nodded. "Thank you, Severus," she said softly. The door was thrown open, and Voldemort walked back in.
"Playing nicely, I hope, Sev," Voldemort said as he sat back down, placing the paper he'd brought with him down on his desk.
"I don't know what you're talking about, love," Severus replied, with an air of complete innocence. "Myself and Ginny were just getting acquainted."
"Severus was showing me his nice side, my Lord," Ginny said quietly, with a smile to Severus.
"Severus, is it now?" Voldemort asked with a smirk.
"Ginny has another date with Draco tonight," Severus said as Voldemort passed his a sheet of parchment to read.
"Oh yes, where is he taking you then?" he asked, focussing on sorting pieces of paper into tidy piles now he had messed them up while searching for the other piece.
"London."
"Take a guard with you then," Voldemort said, tapping a pile with his wand, causing them to catch alight for a second, and then be blown out by an invisible wind.
Ginny frowned. "My Lord, we surely don't need a guard to go out to dinner-"
"Ginny, you're taking someone with you, what do you think would happen if one of my enemies saw a Weasley having dinner with a Malfoy?" Voldemort asked incredulously, stopping his work for a moment. "One of you would get killed, that's for certain."
"I can do magic," Ginny mumbled.
"You're under age," Voldemort snapped decisively.
"You're not my father!" Ginny said loudly. Voldemort glared at her, but Severus kept his head down. He wasn't going to get involved with this one.
"I am your Master," Voldemort hissed at her. "And I am telling you it is not safe for you to be out in the middle of London at night. So if you want to go out, then take a guard with you, or if you don't want the guard, stay here with Malfoy tonight."
"I bet you and Severus don't take a guard with you when you go out," Ginny snapped, standing up. Severus was surprised she hadn't backed down yet.
"No, because I am the Dark Lord, and Severus is powerful. When we go out tonight, no one will dare come near us," Voldemort replied coldly. "Ginny, whoever goes with you will not be sitting with you. In fact, I doubt you'll even realise they're there with you. Now be sensible. Go and get ready for your special night with Draco." Severus was equally amazed that Voldemort had kept his temper with her.
Ginny sighed, but did as she was told nonetheless, and left the room.
"Well handled," Severus murmured, smiling at Voldemort.
"I've been expecting a rebellion from her," Voldemort replied with a sigh. "She is merely testing my boundaries, I shall be lenient with her for now."
"I see," Severus replied, finally looking at the parchment in front of him. "Oh, the teachers list..." he muttered, reading carefully. "Seems alright," he finally answered, nodding.
"Good, I'll publish this tomorrow then," Voldemort replied. "Love, why don't you try and get some sleep before tonight, you look exhausted." Severus didn't say anything, but secretly he was glad about getting some extra rest in. His dreams had been taking their toll on him, waking him up in the middle of the night some times and not being able to sleep again.
"Mm, I think I will actually," Severus replied, placing a light kiss on Voldemort's lips. "See you soon."
x--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------x
At around eight o'clock that night, Severus and Voldemort entered a restaurant located in the upmarket area of Knockturn Alley. Ginny and Draco had gone out, and taken the guard with them. Ginny had actually put her arms around the Dark Lord before she'd left and asked if just this once he could forgive her. Voldemort naturally gave in to her qualms, wishing her and Draco a good night. The Dark Lord ordered for both himself and his submissive Severus, and they held hands across the candlelit table, awaiting their expensive wine and meals.
"How do you feel?" Voldemort asked him over the table, after their wine had arrived.
"Amazing," Severus replied. "Much better after my rest this afternoon."
"Good. Even Bellatrix asked me how you were feeling earlier," Voldemort said with a smirk. "Everyone is concerned."
"They have no reason to be, really," Severus said quietly, absently swirling the wine about the glass. "It's probably just after effects from the bond. I'm sure it'll pass."
"Yes, I know, but-" Voldemort lowered his voice. "Sex dreams? They're not meant to end that abruptly. Why do they scare you so?"
Severus shrugged. "I am not sure," he said carefully. "I think it means something. We'll find out soon, I expect." He paused. "Love... Would you do something for me?"
"Anything," Voldemort replied with a smile, squeezing Severus's hands affectionately.
"Would you stay in bed with me until I wake up tomorrow?" he asked hopefully.
Voldemort looked surprised. "If you want me to... The other morning when I tried to comfort you, you lashed out and tried to hit me..."
"Did I?" Severus asked, completely shocked. "I tried to hit you? Oh... Love, I'm sorry, I've been thinking that you didn't care."
Voldemort tutted, but he was smiling. "I've been getting up so that you could wake alone and get it sorted in your head. I promise I'll stay with you now every morning I can."
At that moment, the food arrived, and any more talking seriously was delayed for a few hours. They resumed their conversation as they walked up the lawn to their house, a bottle of wine being shared between them in long sips.
"What do you think the bond's trying to tell us?" Severus asked Voldemort, passing him the bottle.
"That we should have sex more often?" Voldemort smirked, and took a swig.
"S'pose we should test that, love," Severus replied as they got inside. Voldemort pushed Severus up against the wall, and pinned his hands above his head.
"We should," Voldemort growled in his ear. "Right here, right now."
At that moment, the doors behind them opened, and Draco and Ginny walked in, talking in hushed tones. They stopped walking as they saw Voldemort and Severus in that position, Draco turned red and Ginny merely giggled. She walked towards Voldemort, and put her arms around him, and began to sing a Weird Sisters song loudly to him.
"How much has she drunk?" Voldemort asked Draco, above Ginny's chorus of "You've got me spinning like a crazy elf".
"She likes her wine, apparently, my Lord," Draco replied, and pulled his girlfriend off of the Dark Lord. "Come on, Gin, bed time for you." Ginny put her arms around Draco and allowed him to carry her upstairs. Voldemort smirked at Severus.
"It's your bedtime too, sub," Voldemort said, planting a kiss on Severus's forehead. Severus grinned, and did as he was told.
