Disclaimer- I don't own the Harry Potter series, I swear this story has no end insight. There are still some many ideas I want to put in the story. Love the reviews guys.
"The two of you disappoint me," Poppy said as she made them swallow different types of potions. She had already fixed the cuts, Severus's broken nose, Harry's busted lip, the broken bones, the bruised ribs, Harry's knee and Severus' ankle. "Now that you two are well go find that child and don't fight about it."
"Yes Poppy," Harry said leaving the room. Severus just followed him without saying a word.
--
Looking by the lake Harry asked, "Severus where did you go last night?"
"None of your business Potter," Severus snapped.
"You ruined Christmas for Taji."
"You ruined long before I did," Severus said walking away from Harry.
Harry caught up with him, "What is that suppose to mean?"
"Figure it out Potter," Severus said heading toward the forbidden forest. Not wanting to be left alone Harry followed him. "Potter you can look for him away from me."
"No! We're suppose to be doing this together."
"Don't talk to me," said Severus as the pair went deeper into the forest. As night approached, the temperature was dropping quickly and snow started to fall. Severus knew they couldn't continue to search for to much longer, but he knew it was his fault Taji had ran away so he kept going. As the snow fell harder, the pair could barely see in front of them. "Potter we have to turn back before we're caught in the storm."
"No we have to find Taji."
"We can't find him if we freeze to death, we may not be able to make it to the castle, but we can make it to Hagrid's hut." Severus grabbed Harry's hand and pulled him quickly toward the hut. Even if Severus hand was cold, Harry loved holding it.
--
As the storm grew worse the search party met in the Great Hall to discuss if they found anything, no one had not. "Albus I'm afraid Harry and Severus are caught in the storm," said Molly.
"When the storm picked up I'm sure Severus turned back toward the castle; I know their ok Molly.
"But what about Taji," asked Hermione.
"I can only pray that Harry and Severus found him," Albus said.
--
Sitting by the fire in Hagrid's hut Harry was shivering not only from the cold, but also from his fear that Taji was dead somewhere. "Severus tell me the truth why did you leave?"
Severus who was sitting on Hagrid's bed wrapped in a blanket just stared at the fire. A few minutes went by before he spoke, "I couldn't stand the happy feeling of the house."
"Do you still care about Taji?"
"Yes, I was still getting over being drunk when I fought you."
"Then you're sorry about what you said about Ginny?"
"No," Severus said without emotion.
"I swear you're the most inconsiderate man alive," Harry said turning his head to look at Severus.
"I'm inconsiderate did you even talk to Taji, before you proposed to Ginny?"
"No I already thought he would love the fact that I was going to marry her."
"Potter you don't just spring something like that on a child."
"I know now," Harry admitted. "Because he said he hated Ginny before you came."
"When we found him what are we going to do," asked Severus changing the subject.
"Sit him down and say we're sorry." What Lyra had asked him popped into Harry's head, "I think we have to get away for a few days to figure this situation out.
"Where would we go?"
"Lyra asked me if we wanted to spend New Year's with her, Aden, and her parents. I think we should go, so Taji and Aden can see each other again for maybe their last time."
"What do you mean," asked Severus.
"Albus said we can come back to Hogwarts, once the holidays are done."
"I won't be coming back."
"I know you quitted. Where are you going to go to," Harry asked curious.
"I was thinking the states for awhile."
"Oh," Harry said disappointed. "Taji will miss you."
"And I'll miss him to," Severus admitted.
"You know I'll miss you."
Severus hid himself under the blanket as he started to blush. "I might miss you Potter." Getting up Harry climbed onto the bed with Severus. "What are you doing?" Harry didn't say anything, but grab Severus's head and kissed his lips. Severus was somewhat shocked, but started to deepen the kiss as he pushed his tongue in Harry's mouth. The minute Harry felt Severus's tongue go into his mouth he pulled off. "Why did you stop," asked Severus savoring the kiss.
Not saying a word Harry got off the bed and went to sit back down by the fire. He had decided to kiss Severus to found out if Hermione said was true and now he knew it was. In his mind, he thought Severus was cute, but the boy-who-lived could not be involved with a man. He had to do what people expected of him, but still he wanted to break away and be his own person. No, I have to marry Ginny and raise our child, but what if it's not mine like Hermione and Severus said. No, it is mine I know it is. Severus drifted off to sleep thinking about the kiss and his love for Harry and Taji.

All night Taji had been curled into his ball, when the storm had first started he managed to find small hole in a tree that he could fit in. Once he was inside he went into his ball, most people didn't understand why he did it. He only went into his ball as a defensive maneuver or in the situation; he was in now a way to retain body heat. As the hours went by his body temperature started to drop to dangerously low levels. Uncurling himself, he knew he had to go back to the castle, falling out of the tree he walked slowly to the castle. With every step, he became weaker until he collapsed.
--
The minute the sun came out Harry and Severus were outside looking for Taji walking into the woods the pair didn't exchange any words. After an hour of searching, Severus spotted a black fuzzy cord sticking out from under some snow, grabbing it he pulled up Taji. "Harry I found him," Severus said as he put the child inside his robes with him.
Harry became delirious with happiness, but his mood lessened when he saw Taji was blue. "Is he alive?"
"I can feel some heartbeat, we have to take him to the castle immediately," Severus said running to the castle.
--
Severus laid on Taji's left side, while Harry was on his right. After they had brought him in Poppy determined Taji was suffering from stage three hypothermia; she then had to spell warming potions into his system, then he was taken out of his wet clothes and was put into a pair of footed pajamas with a chibi style lion and snake playing together. He was now laying with on a bed covered in blankets while Severus and Harry laid beside them. Poppy had said the pair needed to transfer some of their body heat to Taji, so he could get better. Harry cuddled Taji as he slept; he was so happy Severus had spotted Taji's tail. "Severus,"
"What Potter," Severus said.
"Nothing," Harry couldn't figure out the right words to say that he loved Severus for saving Taji's life. Severus knew Harry wanted to say something important, but he decided not to stress the issue.
Albus came into the room and thought it was cute that the three were in bed together, "how is Taji Poppy?"
"He doing better, he must have found some way to retain or generate body heat when he was out there," she said leaving to give the men some privacy.
"The boy is a survivor," chuckled Albus. "Boys I have decided no to let you two come back to Hogwarts, until the three of you can truly get along."
"Albus," said Severus sitting straight up. "I told you I quit my job."
"I am well aware that you said that, but I legally have to make a magical signature that says you don't work here anymore and I refuse to sign it."
"That's not fair Albus; I'm an adult."
"I know that Severus, but I also know you made the decision without clearly thinking about it."
"I don't care what you say I'm leaving."
"Severus you're tired try and get some sleep," said Albus leaving the room.
Severus sat there fuming he hated how Albus treated him like a child, getting out of bed he started to head toward the door. "Where are you going Severus," asked Harry.
"I'm not about to let Albus run my life, I'm leaving. Tell Taji I'll come back to see him," said Severus leaving the ward. Harry just sat there he knew he could have gone after Severus, but there would be no point. Taking Taji into his arms Harry started to cry.
--
Waking up Taji noticed he was with Harry, earlier he remembered hearing Severus's voice. "Hawy no cry," Taji said wiping Harry's eyes.
Harry smiled he was happy Taji was awake; he gave the little boy a huge kiss. "You scared me and Severus to death, but I'm glad you're ok."
"Me in trouble?"
"No we know you left to get away from the fighting."
"Where Sevy," Taji asked looking around.
"He went to do some important stuff; we're going to see Lyra and Aden soon," Harry said trying to distract the child.
"Me want Sevy."
"I know but Sevy needs his space right now," Harry said holding Taji who was crying.
--
A few days later Taji and Harry were going to take the train Knight bus to London to spend time with Lyra and Aden. Ginny was upset that Harry was going to see some girl without her, but Harry had promised he would take her on a shopping spree in Paris for letting him go. Taji needed to get away for awhile, since Severus had left he was starting to regress to what he was when he first appeared at Hogwarts. Harry knew this vacation would be good for him. Getting onto the bus, Harry got Taji to sleep, so he would not act psycho during the ride. Sitting back Harry wondered where Severus had went, not only did Taji missed him, but Harry had to admit to himself he missed Severus to.

"Lyra I don't know about going to this club," Harry said, as he got undressed in Lyra's room at her parents house. It was New Year's Eve and the two were about to go out and party. Taji and Aden were going to have a small party with Lyra's parents at home. When Taji and Harry arrived Lyra asked, so many questions about Severus not being there, that Harry broke down and told her the truth. He told her he was a wizard, Severus and he weren't together, he had a fiancé and child on the way, and other things. Lyra who understood forgave Harry for lying to her. She seriously doubted Ginny was pregnant with Harry's child and she vowed to convince him of it.
"You're going to have fun," now put on this clothes," she said throwing him a pair of pants and a shirt.
"No I just stay here," he said changing his mind. "Ginny would be mad if she found out."
"Damn she's got you whipped, what she doesn't know won't hurt her," said Lyra pulling a short mini skirt on. Harry knew she was right as he pulled on a pair of tight leather pants with a silk emerald and silver shirt. "You look cute, but lets do this," she said as she ripped opened the shirt to reveal Harry's chest. Next, she slicked his hair back and took his glasses. "You look so hot."
"I can't see,"
"Here," she said giving him back his glasses. Finishing her make-up, she said it was time to go. Heading to the boys was the pair found Aden showing off his new toy to Taji. "Boys we're about to leave be good for grandma and grandpa."
"Yes mommy," said Aden.
"Taji are you going to be good," Harry said giving him a hug.
"Yes Hawy me promise."

At the club, the music was loud with a techno beat; bodies swayed and humped each other from all directions. The lights were turned down low, so no one could see each other faces, but enough so people could see where they were going. The scent in the air was pure sex and it drove Harry crazy. Getting on the dance floor Harry loosened up to dance with men and women. Attaching himself to a tall dark figure the two sweated heavily as they simulated sex while they danced. "You want to get a drink," said Harry feeling thirsty after hours of dancing.
"Potter what are you doing here," said the man.
Harry recognized the voice, "Severus."
p.s. Snape in the club, a little ooc but the man needs to loosen up some. Next chapter more scenes in the club and some slash.
