Harry walked through the grounds with Dumbledore. "Why did you have to do that?"

Dumbledore peered at him coldly. "Perhaps I shouldn't have slightly bent," Harry rolled his eyes at the euphemism, "exactly eight school rules for you to have the special tutoring your entire future depends on . . . . Or you could be grateful for Professor Snape's having gladly volunteered his time to help you."

Harry he couldn't help but to smile a little at that. "Gladly?" he pressed.

Dumbledore returned the smile, and clasped a hand on Harry's shoulder. "Reluctantly might be a more suitable word."

Harry rolled his eyes.

*hp*hp*hp*

Severus would have gladly smothered that reckless brat as soon as he saw how carelessly he added the ingredients to his cauldron. He glared his displeasure and returned to his Potions journal, mentally slashing the scientific text with red.

A moment later, his brain registered the mistake and he lurched forward, Potions journal thrown over his shoulder. He saw Potter's eyes widened before Severus could help, and he was obscured by an eruption of purple effervescent concoction.

His heart lurched unpleasantly when a horrified gasp came from Potter, as his clothes dissolved from his body, probably eating through skin afterwards.

*hp*hp*hp**

Harry Potter changed before Severus eyes and he could not un-see that which was already burned into his brain. "Are," his voice broke, "are you unharmed?"

Immediately, he found himself under the evergreen glare that always made Severus's blood boil; made him want to shake Potter, squeeze him, break him . . . own him. By Merlin, that heated expense of pale skin, gently encased in pearl-coloured silk and black stockings. How easy it would be to snap the straps in the chemise, pull it down to Potter's waist, and fasten his mouth to . . . . Bollocks! Was he fantasising about a student?

*hp*hp*hp*

"I knew people would be like this, bloody patronising!" Potter snapped. "I don't need molly-coddling! You can still yell at me. I promise I won't break."

Severus felt himself grow tense. The ungrateful brat! Severus could see that the way he wrapped his arms around himself was defensive, but there he was, scorning Severus's offers of goodwill. "Excuse me if I though you could use a bit of kindness in this moment."

Harry pressed his lips together. "Why, so you can mock me later in front of your House?"

"I believe this is something I'd like to keep for myself."

*hp*hp*hp*

Harry flushed. Replaying his words, Severus found he couldn't resist flushing; he shook himself. "Are you all right?" he insisted.

Harry nodded. Severus quirked an eyebrow. "All right, I feel some itching in my ar—er, backside, chest and inner thighs."

Severus's breath hitched. He prepared himself to send Potter to Poppy, endure her suspicious glare, when he noticed the mischievous glint in Potter's eyes. "Potter!" Potter chuckled. "That was singularly not funny. You almost gave me a heart-attack at the thought of explaining this to Poppy."

Harry looked up. "I'm all right. Clean up and five-hundred lines like usual?"

*hp*hp*hp*

Severus would have said yes; he would, if Potter hadn't just smiled at him. As it was, he cleared his throat. "Nonsense. I've got to clean this up and see what sort of damage you did. Albus would kill me if you got poisoned in my lab."

Harry was staring at him. Severus suddenly felt extremely conscious of every inch of his body, as if he were thirteen again. He looked away and busied himself with scraping samples from Harry's desk. "You can borrow a robe from the cupboard and be on your way."

Harry touched his arm. "Thank you."

*hp*hp*hp*

Harry never really told Severus why he wore women's underwear. It was obvious, when one thought about it: the grace of his movements, out of nowhere, after the war; the newfound confidence and the sudden lack of romantic partners. Potter was finding himself. That he suddenly fit every of Severus's kinks, as if he was made for Severus, was neither here nor there.

Potter was just a few months away from graduation. Maybe, perhaps, Merlin help him, Severus might just buy him the lacy knickers he'd been flirting with at Witches' Secret and cross his fingers that Potter might consider wear them with him.
