Week later…

Harry looked around the bed room, it wasn't in red or gold it was Slytherin colours green and sliver. He wasn't shocked by that it shocked him to think that there was other colours in the room. "I know it's not your gold and red this is Slytherin you have to make do." Severus said "Tho I am sure you can change it if you wish." He told him. Harry looked at the potion master

"Thank you sir, the room is fine." Harry smiled weakly

"Harry I'm not going to bake your head off you and I are going to be family from now on." He smiled softly as he approached the boy. "I will have to be strict with you sometimes but as you are my charge I will look after you as if you're my own child." …until I can make you my wife… He told himself. The dark haired teen blushed rather too cutely for Snape liking but he did nothing to make it know.

"It will take a while for me to get use to people being nice to me, normally they want something in return." This make Severus raise an eye brow at the pale skinned boy in front of him

"Even Miss Granger and Mr Weasley? Are they only being nice to get something in return?" He asked with amused look on his face.

Harry frowned at him and walked over to the bed and sat down before looking up at the Potion Master who declared himself Harry's father "Yes, everyone wants something and if you can be nice it goes unnoticed what you want until you sucked into their sweet talks. But my uncle, my Aunt and cousin didn't have to be nice to get what they wanted from me they just took it." Severus smiled at Harry and walked into the centre of the room

"You my sweet child are clever than I first thought. You are right I do want something from you." Harry's frowned deepen as he looked up at the vampire

"I thought so."

"But all I want is you." Harry titled his head and looked at him "I've asked the head master to let the house resort you. Being bitten can change a small part of your personality and we need to make sure you are in the right house." He told him, before leaving the room.

The hat chuckled as he sat on Harry's head the teen huffed as the same gruff voice spoke to him "Back again Mr Potter? May-May you have changed haven't you? Something bitter and cold has seeped into your veins and dare I say a bit of old blood." He laughed

"Just get on with it, I know what house you're going to place me in any way?" Harry growled as he crossed his arms

"I told you, you will be great in Slytherin but the choice can still be yours sweet child." The hat said, it made the teen bite his lip and feeling embarrasses that the hat is calling him that because that is Snape nick name for him.

"I…I… can't be in that house I'm a dark creature now I…I belong here don't I? With the other bitter and cold beings." Harry said with a little remorse in his words

"There is nothing wrong with being a creature like yourself, many great wizards and witches have been in your place a house they were brought up in does not change the choices you make. But perhaps I will make you choice to day? Slytherin!" The hat yelled.

Dumbledore's face dropped as Severus' face light up with pride as Harry slipped of the chair and walk over to the Headmaster and potion professor/ adoptive father. The young teen held the hat in his hands as he looked down at the floor feeling a tide of magic wash over him change his red and golds to green and sliver. "I'm sorry Head Master but the Hat is right I can still make my own choices no matter the house." The boy said as he looked up into the blue twinkling eyes

"How true my boy, I just wish you had more choice in your life." The old man said, Severus moved and placed his hand on Harry's shoulder as the boy handed the hat back over to him

"Well my sweet child we will inform you new class mates once they return after Christmas."

"Yes sir."

A couple of days passed and he notices a sad look on his wards face. The boy had hidden himself in his room and rarely left said room and feel some of the blame was his he wanted to know how to make Harry happy. He knocked on the door and walked in see the child curled up on the bed doing his homework. "Harry is there something bothering you? I know being a newly turned vampire won't be easy for you but I am here to talk to." He said as he walked closer to him before sitting on the bed.

"I had a replay from Ron and Hermione. She is open to the idea of me being a vampire and you adopting me but Ron…Well… you should read it." Harry leaned over to the bed side table and pulled a neatly fold letter over and handed to Severus.

The potion master took the letter and open it gently and read though it and growled before looking up at his ward "You do not need so called friends like this Harry. If the boy is to narrow minded then you must forget him. Miss Granger seem more level headed." He told him as he saw the sad look in those emerald orbs placing the letter on the table Severus reached out and grabbed the dark haired teen who squeaked as he was pulled on to the older vampire's lap.

Harry was frozen in Severus' lap he laid there with his head resting against the older vampire's chest. He was letting the man comfort him by rubbing his back up and down slowly in comforting circles and the teen found himself closing his eyes and nuzzling into the man's chest and let himself fall into the embrace. "The day you said you wanted me? What did you mean by that?" Harry asked as he looked up at the vampire.

"I saw something a future event and you were there." He whispered softly as he ran his fingers though Harry's inky black hair

"Can vampires be seers?" Harry asked, Severus chuckled and kissed the top of the boy's head

"Some can but not me nor my family. I saw this wonderful event and we were both happy." Severus smiled at him and Harry closed his eyes as he rested his head back against the man's chest

"Were happy?" Harry asked

"Very." Severus smiled as he held him tightly

"Together?" He whispered

"Together."
