Snape knocked gently on the door.

"Harry?"

"What?" came the sharp answer.

"Dinner's ready."

"I'm not hungry!"

"Please come out."

"No! Go away!"

"Harry....."

"GO AWAY!"

"Harry, please...."

"Why?"

"Because I don't want you cooped up in there all day!"

"Why?"

"Because it's unnerving!"

"Hmph."

"Because I don't like silence!?"

"Yeah right."

"OH TO HELL WITH IT! BECAUSE I FUCKING ENJOY YOUR COMPANY!" At this the door cracked open and a pair of emerald eyes peeked out at him.

"You don't mean that, do you? You're just saying that to get me out of the room."

"No, Harry, I'm not lying. As much as it hurts my pride to admit it, I've grown rather used to you, and sitting in silence has become unnerving." Harry snorted and closed the door again.

"GOD DAMMIT HARRY, COME OUT OF THERE!"

"Do you mind if I get some pants on first?" Severus bit his lip as he imagined Harry, strutting around with only his shirt on.

"Dammit! Why'd you have to say that!? Now I have a hard on!" He heard a giggle from inside.

"Why do you think I said it?" Harry came out and looked down at the large bulge in Severus' pants. He smirked and went to the sitting room to eat.

"Are you going home for the Holiday's?" Snape asked.

"Hn."

"Of course. That was a stupid question."

"Yes, it was." Harry grabbed a strawberry and dipped it in chocolate, then brought it to his lips and sucked the chocolate off the tip.

"Mmmmm…" he moaned, darting his tongue out to catch chocolate that had begun to drip.

he sucked every bit of the sweet liquid from the strawberry, then nipped at the tip before taking it all in his mouth and chewing it up. He repeated this process with five more strawberries, leaving his red lips coated with chocolate. Finally Severus couldn't take it anymore. He grabbed Harry, pinned him to the couch and kissed him, hard. Harry made a surprised sound and tugged at his wrists. Severus licked the sugary syrup from Harry's lips, and then forced his tongue inside the boys' hot mouth. Severus moaned as he tasted every inch of Harry's mouth. Finally he pulled away and stared down at Harry. The boy's eyes were wide with shock and his kiss swollen lips were still parted. He was blushing like mad.

"Mmm. You taste so good Harry." he breathed into his ear, before nipping it.

"Get off, Sev. I never said you could kiss me!" Harry panted. Severus sat back and sighed.

"I'm sorry, Harry. I just couldn't help myself."

"Why not?"

"That little act you were doing has me rock hard."

"What act?"

"With the strawberries!"

"What are you talking about? I always eat strawberries like that."

"You-you do?"

"Yes."

"Shit! I'm going to take a cold shower."

Harry smiled and watched Sev go, then got up and went to the study. He skimmed threw the books on the shelves, finding most of them to be potions books. Soon he came across a large book with the words 'All about Veela's' spelled out in gold letters along the spine. Harry pulled it off the self and opened the cover. On the inside was written,

'To my mate,

I hope this helps you with this relationship in understanding my actions more and what's to be expected.

Severus Snape'

Harry took the book into the sitting room and skimmed threw the book till he came on the chapter that was called, 'Veela's protection instincts.'

'Veela's are known to be incredibly protective of their mates. When they first find them they demand to know where they are at all times which can be frustrating for a non-Veela mate. Veela's usually lessen up their protectiveness when they are bonded with they're mate. But even then they are very anxious about they're mates. But the longer they're bonded, the more relaxed they become. Until their mate becomes pregnant, (see page 397 for pregnancy) at which time they are constantly looking over their mates shoulder……'

"Pregnancy?" Harry said, turning to page 397.

'Veela's usually impregnate or get impregnated when bonding, though at their mates request they can try and prevent it. Male's can get pregnant as well if they are mates with another male as well as two females. The submissive party is always to one impregnated.'

Just then, Severus came in. He looked over at Harry and smiled.

"Ah, I see you found the book."

"Why didn't you ever tell me I could get pregnant?" Harry asked.

"Oh, yes. That. Must have slipped my mind."

"Anything else important that slipped your mind?!"

"No."

"You should have told me."

"Well, now you know. So what's the problem?"

"Forget it!" Severus walked around and sat down next to Harry.

"Do you have a problem with having children?"

"Yes." Harry said. "I don't want any." Severus stared at him for a moment.

"Why not?" Harry looked at him laps were his hands rested over the book.

"Because........"
