Disclaimer: If I owned Harry Potter then this fanfic would be the real story…and J.K the fic.

Chapter 14 Harry's birthday

Severus would do almost anything for Harry. He would kill whoever made him cry--be it the Dark Lord himself or, Merlin forbid, Albus. He would carry him in his arms all the way across America. He would do anything and everything for him. But he had to draw the line of waiting in a closet with…with children just to surprise Harry. The man shifted to get some room between Hermione and himself. She was trying to get as far away from the petrified Ron (he was going to make it an unsurprise party by telling Harry about it…So Hermione and Ginny hexed him and stuffed him in the closet with them. Severus thought he should reward points to Gryffindor because of that.) Anyway, here he was with two children (including Mr. Weasley) and one was the wrong gender and one was not Harry! So needless to say, Severus was not happy and was torn between being a part of his mate's birthday or getting out of here.

"He's here!" Hermione whispered.

Severus looked through a crack on the door. He was now starting to get it: if he could hide in their room….and surprise him….He smirked at the thought.

"Sev," A voice called out.

Severus heart constrained on his chest as he heard the frightened voice.

"Surprise!"

Everyone came out of the woodwork except Ron of course. Harry had tears on his face and then a grin spread out when he saw everyone was there. "You didn't leave me."

Severus immediately went up to him and began to whisper in his ear. "Are you okay, Harry?" he asked kneeling down in front of Harry.

The boy nodded his head and whispered back. "I thought that everyone had left or they didn't want me anymore."

Severus nodded and hugged the boy to him. "I won't ever leave you Harry," he let go and stood up holding out a hand, "Let's enjoy your birthday party."

Harry smiled and him and took the large hand before him.

"Oh I am so sorry Harry!" Molly exclaimed as she hugged him to her.

"Mrs. Weasley you're…cutting…my breathing out," Harry gasped out.

She quickly released him, "Let's go downstairs to your party Harry."

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- SNARRY RULES THE WORLD...PEOPLE JUST DON'T KNOW IT-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Harry was having a great time. He had the best party ever he was sure. The boy blushed as he remembered how he handled it at first--crying, but everything was alright now. Things just got better when he was laughing about something Hermione said when she told him that she would be right back. Harry nodded and watched her go to Ginny. 'Maybe Ginny is the one she likes…' Harry thought as he started to look around for his mate. He didn't have to look far when he spotted him talking to Mr. Weasley. He was just about to go to him when he heard Mrs. Weasley say something.

"RON!"

Everyone stopped talking and looked at the red-haired woman who was going to a petrified Ron.

"Hermione what is the reason for this?" Molly asked taking out her wand and undoing the hex on her youngest son.

"Let me go get Harry for a sec. Mrs. Weasley then we will explain everything," Hermione told her, she looked at Ginny, "Make sure his doesn't get out of sight."

Ginny grinned and saluted her, "I will ma'am."

The older girl frowned. "Quit doing that...I am not a captain."

Harry looked at his friend as she came closer. "Are you going to let them know?" He asked her as she got close enough to here him.

She grinned, "This is part of my present to you."

They went to Mrs. Weasley with everyone watching. Ron looked like he was about to crap his pants and tried to move away from his sister. If his family found out about what he did….

"Mrs. Weasley…we have something to tell you about your son," Harry started to say.

"What did our dear…"

"Dear brother do…."

"Now?" Fred and George asked.

"He was pretending to be Harry's friend for a chance to be on the Chuldey Cannons," Ginny told her family as she glared at Ron.

There was silence. Mr. Weasley was the first to do something; glasses had shattered at the force of his power. "He did what?!" No one had ever seen the mild-mannered man look that angry before. He walked up to his son and glared at him, "Did you do that?"

The boy shook his head thinking if he lied than everything will all right.

"I saw him talking to Professor Dumbledore about him wanting Ron to be his friend so that they could keep an eye on him," Hermione said quietly to the listening people.

Mrs. Weasley was also beyond angry. "Ron…you are going to live with Kreacher. Take out all your things from your room."

Ron's eyes widened. "But mum!"

"I don't care! I don't want Harry near you!" She turned to Harry. "I am so sorry for my wayward son…" She shook her head. "I cannot believe that he would do such a thing…"

"It's not your fault Mrs. Weasley," Harry smiled sadly at her.

"And it is not your fault ether young man."

"I did nothing wrong!" Ron exlcaimed.

"Yes you did!" Molly growled turning to her son. "You will march up right now and get your things out of that room."

Ron grumbled and went up the stairs. He was never the thinker in their group…what is going to happen when that crazy old man finds out that he failed? The boy shivered and got his stuff.

Downstairs the group of people looked at the Weasleys who looked back at them. "Well?" Molly asked. "We have a party to continue. We will deal with Ron later. I am sure that Severus and Sirius could find something to do with him."

The two people smirked at each other and grinned.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-TIME SKIP TO JULY 30TH *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

So far Harry had a great time. He had spent time with his godfather and his mate and they started to become almost civil to each other. 'Though whatever they did to Ron might have helped them get along better,' Harry thought. He shivered at the look that they had given him when he asked what they did to Ron. They looked at each other, and then looked at him. 'Don't worry about it,' they said. The scariest part would have been when there was blood on their clothes and Ron was whimpering…here…but not here…

Harry shook himself of that memory and looked at the clock hoping that Draco and Lucius would get here soon. The bell chimed somewhere that announced the arrival of Dumbledore and his guests. People stopped talking when they saw who was with their leader. Dumbledore was wearing a bright orange robe and his long beard had a ribbon that wound down to the end of it, but that was not what made all conversation stop; Draco and Lucius Malfoy were walking in the room with a dignified air about them.

"Dumbledore…" Mr. Weasley started to say but was stopped by a wrinkled old hand.

"I would like to introduce our newest members," The old man said happily.

Harry was the first to speak. He stood up and walked over to them holding in a smile. "Hello Drakky."

There was a hushed silence when Draco scowled.

"I thought I told you to stop calling me that."

"Harry?" Dumbledore asked. 'Crap!' the man thought. 'Did they become friends when I wasn't watching?'

"Yes professor?" Harry asked looking at the headmaster.

"I didn't know you two were friends."

"We talked after he learned that Sev and I were mates. Then we came to a truce and decided to try to become friends." Harry said smiling inwardly.

"Draco," Lucius started to say. "I didn't know that…"

"I didn't have time father. With the whole 'trying to keep the Dark Lord from knowing that we don't like him and wish him gone.'"

Lucius nodded and put his cane in the other hand and held out his hand to shake Harry's hand. "I know we didn't have a …ah…good introduction last time we met. So let us considered this a….what do people call it…a do over if you will."

Harry nodded and took the hand, shaking it.

"It is nice to meet you Mr. Malfoy."

The sliver haired man nodded his head, "It is nice to meet you to."

Harry turned to the rest of the group and raised an eyebrow, much like the man who he had mated with some noted. "Well? Let's welcome them to the Order," Harry said.

"Hello," Draco told them all.

"Hi…" Hermione told the two new members. "It is nice to see you on the right side…" She was looking at Harry when she said that. She knew that the explanation was not the truth. He mouthed 'later' to her and she nodded.

"Draco…" Lucius said bringing the attention to him again. "Why don't you go upstairs and talk to your friends."

Draco nodded and looked at Harry, who looked at Hermione, who looked at Ginny, who nodded. Harry went up the stairs and proceeded to his room, now Ron free, with the others trailing behind him. When they reached his room his stood back and let Draco and the girls pass him. He made sure that no one was following them, and then put a strong silencing spell up. Hermione immediately rounded on Harry.

"You are lying, Harry! What are you not telling me?"

Draco was sitting on Harry's bed and looked away from the posters in the room. "Are you sure she needs to know?"

"I trust her with my life."

Hermione snorted, "You better."

"I didn't know that a lady could snort," Draco sniffed.

"I didn't know that men sniffed," She retorted.

"People, people," Harry told them unsuccessfully hiding a smile.

"Let me guess Harry, you and Draco met earlier this summer and then became friends." Ginny told them while looking through a magazine that Severus had left.

"That's it in a nutshell," Harry told her grinning.

"That's it?" Hermione asked in a disbelieving tone.

"Well, the Dark Lord showed up and Harry made the Dursley's slaves," Draco commented while looking at his nails

Hermione stood there gaping as she processed it. "You made the Dursleys slaves!?"

"Yes…"

"Oh, okay."

"That's all you're going to say about it?"

Hermione sat down on the king size bed. Harry had decided to leave his old room that he used to share with Ron and decided to move in with his mate. Well they were going to do that anyway but the other reason was because they both knew that Draco and his father was going to come…and someone needed to use the room after Ron was forced to sleep with Kreacher. Severus was of course delighted about the thought of Harry in his bed and Molly said as long as they couldn't hear what was going on then she would allow them to sleep in the same bed…not that they used it much for sleep.

"I don't see a problem when you do that with people who deserve it," Hermione told them.

Harry nodded and then grinned evilly at her.

"W-why are you grinning?" She asked warily.

"Soooo Hermione... who could be your crush Hermione?" asked Harry who was smirking at her.

Hermione bristled. "You will find out soon."

"Oh come on Herms! Who is she?"

"She?" Draco looked at the girl on the bed and grinned, "So you like girls?"

"Took you that long to figure it out? And no I will not tell you until I am ready," She told Harry.

The cat boy looked at her and pouted. "I told you who I like…."

"But you didn't have truth serum running through your veins, Harry."

"Good point."

"I know who Hermione likes," Ginny piped up.

"Ginny!" Hermione said warningly

"Don't worry…I won't tell," she grinned, "I finally have something that you don't know Harry and it will stay that way until Hermione tells you."

"Fine I will wait," Harry pouted.

"So are you ready for the next school year?" Draco asked.

"Yes! I have two more classes to enjoy this year!" Hermione said dreamily.

"I will never get you at all Hermione," Harry told her while shaking his head.

"I am going t feel sorry for Ron this year," Ginny commented.

"Why?" Harry asked.

"Because he is no longer the Boy-Who-Lived's friend than he is fair game for a lot of people," Ginny told them.

Harry looked at the red head questionably.

Ginny smirked at the three of them. "He had been talking horridly to many people while you are not around and the only reason that they didn't hex him to next week was because of him being your friend. There are a lot of people who do not want to be in your ire."

A smile appeared on everyone's face.

"So that means the boy will finally get what is coming to him," Draco laughed. "Keep us updated, will you?"

Ginny nodded and promised pictures.

"I can't wait to move into Sev's room in Hogwarts," Harry said happily.

"Oh. Dumbledore let you move in?" Hermione asked.

The raven haired nodded. "We are mates. It is some law that Sev has read that no one can keep mates from living with each other."

"I heard that the new teacher for DADA will be something the ministry appointed," Draco said.

They all looked at him with disbelief.

"What? My dad is on the Board of Governors!"

"Oh we know that…"Hermione waved her hand in a dismissive jester, "But why is the ministry putting a teacher in Hogwarts?"

No one could figure it out.

"Well…" Harry said, "This will be a year that no one will forget."
