I waited for him to wake up on the first day of the term, watching his sleeping figure with a smile he only sees .He is 28 years old but he has the looks of a 33 year old man, thanks to the war that he was forced into at the age of 14 years old. A box sits on my bedside table, along with a letter that I have written to him. His jet-black hair sweeps across his face, the scar he should not have gotten visible beneath it.
I push a small piece of his hair out of his closed eyes, smiling how he turned into my touch. I break my gaze from his peaceful face to look at the clock and I notice its half an hour until the hour is 7 in the morning. The school day begins today and i remove my arms from his waist and go to the shower. He curls up into a ball where my body use to be.
harry's POV
I wake up to Severus' side of the bed empty, his body heat and magical signature still lingering. I stretch with a yawn and look at the calender. Its September 2nd and I groan. the Welcoming Feast was last night and the newest Weasley Twins (from none other than Ron Weasley, my best friend) pulling a light prank on the 1st years in the Gryffindor house.
As i get up, a box with a note on it catches my eye but I tell myself that I will see what it is after i get ready.
Withing 10 minuets my teaching robes were on and my hair sticking up like it always has. My glasses were on and I retrieve the box that sat on Severus' table, grab my lesson plans and such, and rush to breakfast.
Severus' POV
My boyfriend hurries into the Great Hall only a few minuets behind me, his briefcase in one hand and the bonding ring box in another, apparently unopened.
"Hey Sev" Harry says after giving me a light kiss on the cheek. Then he turns to his godfathers, Remus and Sirius Lupin-Black, and gave them a hug. He sits in his customary chair by my side, on the left side of Remus. He pulled a cup of tea towards him before he opened the letter attached to the box.
Remus and Sirius shoot me a knowing look, glad that I was finally doing it. The look on his face was priceless as he read the letter and then opened the box, revealing the gold rings in it.
Harry's POV
I opened the letter after I got to breakfast, the early risers' (being nearly every student and teacher) voice filtering out as I read the letter from Severus.
Dear my beloved boyfriend,
I wanted you to know first is that I love you a lot. I want this to be a like a late birthday present from me and I hope you say yes to my question. Will you marry me? okay now that I have asked the question, open the box.
Love always,
Severus Snape
I opened the black box and found two golden rings in it. One had an emerald encrusted snake on it with a ruby encrusted rose enertwined with the snake. The other had a ruby encrusted lion with an emerald encrusted rose behind it. They took my breath away. I turned to Severus, slipping the snake engagement ring on my finger and handing him the lion ring.
"Yes" I simply said. I watched as his face lit up as he slid his ring on and drew me in for a kiss. My godfathers congratulate me and even the headmistress congratulated me. The students stared but we didn't care. Severus and I just cared about one thing. We were to be married.
