Chapter 10(Lucius' POV)

Lucius was confused, He had seen the way people had started to treat Potter and he wasn't sure why he felt like he wanted nothing more than to be there for the boy. When he arrived to eat that day he wasn't expecting to have any entertainment other than watch the students eat. He was mistaken when Potter entered the room and knocked right into Weasley.

He listened intently to what the boys were saying to each other then Potter burst out with his little rant. He was waiting to see if anyone would respond to his outburst and was surprised to hear Ron talking about the article that was in the profit.

His mind raced with thoughts of everyone believing what was written. He also thought that Potter had known about the article. After seeing Potter rush out of the Great Hall, Lucius started to stand to go after him, but was stopped by one of Severus' hands on his arm.

"Don't, one of his housemates is going after him now." Lucius looked up and felt a jolt of jealousy run around his brain.

He was happy that someone was going to see if Potter was alright, but he couldn't shake the feeling within him that was telling him he should be the one to be comforting the boy. The jealousy got much much worse when he saw Potter walk back into the Great Hall hand in hand with Theo Nott. Shaking his head he excused himself from the table and made his way towards his classroom. He had to do something to get his mind off the boy before he drove himself crazy.

As the day wore on the thoughts wouldn't leave him alone, and only grew worse when he noticed the boy missing from his own class. Finally when the day of teaching came to an end he decided he would take a trip down to his old friends room and have a drink, and maybe something more. He was surprised, however, when he heard Potter's voice when he was about to enter.

After talking to the boy for a couple moments and seeing him about ready to leave he couldn't help but reach out and ask him about Mr. Nott. Seeing the longing look in the boys eyes and the hurt behind that made him want to seek the other boy out and hurt him.

He couldn't believe his own ears when he heard him self telling Potter that Nott didn't know what he was missing out on. Once Potter had left he felt a little pain of guilt as he looked over at Severus. He saw the other man looking at him in confusion and shook his head.

"So why was Potter down here so late, and why was the boy not in my class?" Lucius asked trying to sound distant from the interaction moments ago.

"He has read the article in the paper and wanted answers. I couldn't lie to him so I told him everything." Lucius saw Severus watching him closely to see his reaction to all of this. He tried his best to seem detached but knew his friend could see around his act.

"I think this calls for a drink Severus." He stated at he moved closer, wanting to feel the warmth the other man has so willingly been giving him. He needed to get the thoughts of Potter out of his head and shake the feeling that Severus was suspicious.

Once he felt Severus' arm wrap around his back he let him self relax. He couldn't help but think this is where he belonged, the main reason he took up the teaching position, to be as close to this man as he could, everyday.

Ever since school they have had a very close relationship. When Lucius saw the lost first year he immediately took him under his wing and quickly fell in love with him. His marriage to Narcissa was arranged well before he had met Severus and he could do nothing to get out of the contract. He married the woman who gave birth to his son and eventually fell in love with her too. Once this happened he called off all ties to Severus, other then friendship, and stayed faithful to his wife.

Once she passed he could no longer hold off his feeling for the other man and returned to his side and his bed. He told Draco the truth about them right from the beginning and the boy had no problems with his father being happy. He just wondered what his son would think of the thoughts and feelings swirling around his mind about Potter.

He felt the arm around him tighten and he knew that Severus must have been saying something while he was off thinking. He slowly turned his body to pull the others lips down to his and ravished the other mans mouth, showing him how much he loved him. All the while flashes of messy hair and emerald eyes would show, making him pull back sooner than he would have liked.

The look Severus was now giving him made him think the other man knew what he was thinking. He was only hoping he didn't actually sit there and read his mind.

A/N: I'm sorry this is so short, being Lucius' point of view these chapters will most likely be shorter then the rest. I just wanted to get a little back story in there and his own thoughts about Harry. I hope everyone liked it and going to try and get a couple more chapters out by tomorrow or the next day.
