Damien had instantly panicked when he felt the muscled arms of a man wrapped around him. Too muscled to be Severus and his father. His chest felt constricted and his eyes filled with fear as a man's voice spoke next to his ear. Nearly shaking in his skin out of his fear of the man behind him.
"Why hello there." Three words had never made Damien more frightened in his life. He stood ramrod straight in the man's arms before turning his head slowly and studying the man's features. Although dark like Severus' eyes, this man had a slight glint in his eyes that Damien didn't like. Not at all. "I am Rabastan Lestrange. And who are you?"
"H..hello. My..my name is Damien.." Damien managed to stutter out. His eyes widening slightly as the man smiled, a terrifying smile that had managed to seep in his skin and quake his bones.
Rabastan smirked at the little beau in front of him. His cheeks were a lovely shade of pink and he loved the fear in those eyes. He ran a finger down the shorter man's cheek and smiled wider as he watched him shiver. Out of either fear or excitement he did not know. But, he was gaining a reaction from the beau and he loved it.
"You are very very pretty." Damien inwardly screamed. Screamed for anyone to come help him. Screamed for Severus, Dad, or maybe even one of the Malfoys to come and save him. And that was when he heard it. Footsteps. A slow paced walk but with long strides. Severus. A small smile graced his face and he looked over the man's shoulder, seeing Severus walking towards them with an angry scowl on his face. Rabastan had glanced at him and turned them around. Wrapping a protective arm around Damien's shoulder as he glared at the man before them. "Severus."
Severus was outraged. This disgusting man was touching Damien. The sweet and innocent Damien that he was only supposed to touch. He looked at Damien, seeing the flicker of fear in his eyes. He felt himself soften as he looked at him, and then his eyes hardened once again as he looked back over at the vile man touching what was his. Rabastan.
"I think you should unhand him Rabastan. What would the Dark Lord say if he saw this?" Damien had instantly felt more calm at the sound of Severus' voice. It carried over his skin and calmed him. Giving the man in front of him a wide smile. A light flush in his cheeks.
Rabastan looked down at his little beau. Feeling a deep set of anger and jealously as he saw his object of affection looking at another man like that. Let alone Severus. How dare he? However, since he was the Dark Lord's son, he decided to just put a smile on his face and let Damien go. Watching as he stumbled a bit forward toward Severus. And then his eyes narrowed dangerously as he saw Severus place a hand atop of Damien's shoulders.
"I shall say the same to you, Snape. What would He say if saw someone from his inner circle touch his son so lustfully." Rabastan smirked as he saw Severus eyes light up with anger. Ah. He must have taken a liking to Damien.
Damien's eyes had widened at that last word. Lustfully? His eyes slowly glanced up at Severus. Seeing his eyes full of utter hate and anger toward Rabastan. Did he really actually like him? Or was it just lust? Thoughtfully, he chewed on his bottom lip and slowly looked back Rabastan. Seeing a smirk on his face as he watched Severus.
"Goodbye Rabastan." It was short, but it held a certain coldness and tone in it that had sent shivers down Rabastan's spine. And then he watched as both Damien and Snap walked off. Smirking as he watched his beau's bottom sway.
Once Damien and Severus were back in the main room of the manor, Damien had sat down and placed his hands on his lap. Flinching a bit as Severus started to scold him.
"You should never wander off by yourself again. There are dangerous people that could do a multitude of things to a person like you." Severus glared at the walls as he paced back and forth. Thinking of the various situations and people that Damien could have ran into other than Rabastan. He growled lowly at the mere thought of that filthy man's name.
"I.. I'm sorry Severus.." Damien sniffed. Glancing at the floor and looking up at Severus. He had stopped pacing now and was kneeling in front of him. A hand on either side of his knees, placed on the couch. He was looking at him with such a caring look in his eye, and that had surprised him. This man was usually so cold to everyone and didn't show expression, even to his father. But it seemed like when it came to him, he was so caring.
"Next time have someone escort you. I, I mean, your father would feel much happier knowing you have someone to look after you." Severus looked intently in Damien's eyes. Looking into the blood red eyes that seemed to look through his soul. They were so like his father's, but also so much difference between the two of them. Of course they both shared the color. However, Damien's eyes showed every emotion that he was having. They were so expressive and seemed to pull Severus in. He watched as Damien slowly nodded his head.
"Could you happen to escort me?" Damien looked shyly up at Severus. Hoping the man wouldn't say no and reject him.
"Yes. But, if there was a meeting, then I shall send Draco to escort you." Severus stood then. Straightening out his robes and looking over at the door where Voldemort and all of the Malfoy's exited out of. They all made their way over. And Severus did not miss the way Draco's eyes seemed to follow the Dark Lord a bit more often than they should.
"Father!" Damien rushed over to his father. Hugging him tightly around his waist and smiling as he felt the safe arms wrapping around him. Then blushed as he felt four sets of eyes upon him.
Voldemort had looked up from his son and looked over at Severus. "What happened?" He felt his son stiffen in his arms as he asked that question. And he instantly felt bad. What did happen?
"Rabastan had found Damien wondering the gardens and took a particularly liking to him. I stopped him though before things got too far." Severus' eyes had betrayed his other wise emotionless face. And Voldemort wondered how much Severus had actually liked his son. Then he felt a set of eyes on him, the Dark Lord's red eyes looked over to find Draco staring at him. Once they locked eyes, Draco quickly looked over at the wall, going back to his stone cold Malfoy sneer.
"Fine. I'll Crucio him later. Severus, take Damien up to his private chambers. It is getting late." Severus nodded and bid the man good night, also saying good bye to all of the Malfoy's. Getting back the expecting nod and wave of a hand. And then he took Damien's shoulder in his hand and led him up to Damien's private chambers.
Damien had fallen on top of his bed face down. Feeling tired all of the sudden before poking his head up to look at Severus. He was standing in the doorway still before Damien nodded his head. Beckoning him over. While he walked, Damien sat up. Lacing his fingers together and looking at Severus. Patting the bed next to him and smiling as he sat down a bit awkwardly.
"I wanted to thank you.. I don't know what could have happened if you didn't come." The two stared at each other, simply stared. Severus didn't want to think of what could have happened if he didn't find them. It wasn't an option. He had to keep a look out for Damien.
"No need. People that have to find others and try to sexually molest them are disgusting filth." Damien nodded, biting his lip and looking down at his hand. Twisting his fingers together before looking up at Severus.
"Still though, without you I couldn't have gotten my father back in my life. Thank you." Severus watched in amazement as a large smile lit up on Damien's face. A bit of guilt tinging his stomach as he felt heat go to his groin. He simply nodded and looked away. Standing up and walking to the door. "Wait." Severus stopped and felt a pair of thin arms wrap around him and a face press against his back. Heat flooded in his veins and he closed his eyes. Placing his hands atop of Damien's. "Good night Severus."
"Good night Damien."
And then he left. Damien stood there. Looking at the spot where a second before Severus stood. A smile lit up his face as he remembered the way Severus had felt. Hard with lean muscle but still a bit soft in some places. He sleepily walked over to his bed and plopped upon it. Closing his eyes and smiling.
Outside the door Severus took deep and calming breaths. Cursing the Gods as he felt all his blood rush south. He had simply ignored it and apparated out of the house and into his own apartment to take control of his not so little problem.
