Well I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I finally found another beta. Celebrate all of you out there who read this and aren't grammar challenged like myself. SchroedingersKat is now making this story readable. Its she amazing. (Please note that author crap at the top and bottom are not apart of what she cleans up and are still at risk of being butchered)
The bad news is that chapter is kind of short. That and I'm pretty sure that there are only about 3 more chapters after this and this story will be done.
*sobs*Its been soooo long since I started this. 2005 I think.
I don't own it. If I did, Harry wouldn't not have ended up with the fangirl.
Beware of yaoi, violence, rape, and other adult themes. Actually, most of the last chapters have been mild, its the first ones you have to watch out for.
Chapter 37
Harry knew that this would eventually happen and that it was only a matter of time before the Order of Fried Chicken managed to recover from the loss of its leader and several members and confront him. However why in the bloody hell did it have to be today. He had barely gotten any sleep, since he had been up all night being introduced to death eaters and other supporters of his grandfather's cause. The last thing he needed was to deal with was a group of back stabbing sheep.
Yet here they were standing in front of him. He should have known something was up when the new headmistress had called him into her office. Yet, he hadn't expected to find himself surrounded; perhaps he had spent too much time with the Gryffindors, because he hadn't thought that they would try and confront him at the school. Clearly he was giving them too much credit for brains. Of course they weren't aware of his Slytherin inheritance however surely they realized that the wards on the school would protect him.
After all, almost immediately after the old coot had been removed, the board members, Lucius in the lead, had appeared at the school, with a group of curse breakers and ward crafters in tow. Apparently, the events that had happen to him during his years at school should not have been possible due to the wards. He wasn't even slightly surprised to learn that Dumbledore had somehow negated the wards surrounding him. Of course his grandfather could do the same thing as one of the founder's heirs, but that didn't explain several other attacks on his life, including Umbitch and Dementors. Nope that was all Dumbles doing.
However Dumble's meddling had been wiped clean and none of the other members of the order had the kind of power necessary to override them, especially now that he was a student. According to Lucius it was easier to set such things up before Hogwarts acknowledged him as a student and thus someone to be protected. It was unlike that even the coot had the kind of power necessary to change them now.
So really, cornering him in the school was really not in their best interest. However it seemed like somebody had forgotten to tell them that. Moody was already glaring at him, wand in hand, and nothing had even been said yet.
"Headmistress, you wished to speak to me?" Harry asked, with forced politeness, when nobody said anything. He wanted to get this over with, he hadn't had a chance to see Severus today and he missed his lover.
"Ah, yes…" She trailed of hesitant, glancing at the others. Apparently this particular meeting wasn't her idea.
"You know exactly why you're here boy," Moody snarled, raising his wand threatening. Several months ago, Harry would have panicked and either drawn his and cast or tried to make a run for it. However between his lover, grandfather and Lucius he had much better control over his emotions and a great deal of confidence. So instead of responding rashly, he turned to stare at the man coolly.
"No, I do not. I was informed that the headmistress wanted to speak to me about something academic. However at the moment that does not appear to be the case, since I highly doubt you are here about my grades, especially considering you spent your single year as a teacher tied up in the bottom of a trunk."
"Don't be dense boy; this is about you turning on Dumbledore," Moody, snarled, practically spitting in Harry's face.
"And for what you did to my children," Molly spat at him. Harry turned to look at her. He caught sight of her husband standing behind her. But instead of glaring at him like the others in the room, the man looked ashamed, though he was hiding it pretty well. Perhaps not everyone in the order blamed him for the coot's arrest.
"All I did was report a series of crimes. It's not like I forced them to commit the crimes they did." Harry answered coolly. Moody glared at the younger man, before spitting out a curse. The yellow curse sped towards Harry, before hitting a silvery shield. Harry sent a quick mental thanks to Hogwarts for the protection.
"Attacking a student?" Harry asked, looking around, to note that nobody moved and that there was annoyance and disappointment, in all but Arthur's and the headmistress's eyes, "In Hogwarts's no less. You are aware that it is against the law and that I will of course have to inform my lawyer." He continued.
Before Mad Eye Moody or one of the others could respond the door flew open to reveal Professor Flitwick. The Ravenclaw head paused momentarily frowning when he saw who was in the room, before turning to the Headmistress.
"Minerva, there is Madam Bones in the Great Hall with several Aurors, it seems the Albus has escaped Azkaban." The short man explained, sounding rather out of breath. Harry froze at the words, as the Order hurried out of the room. He barely even noted when Mr. Weasley paused to whisper an apology in his ear.
It was a few long painful hours later that Harry managed to escape the Gryffindor common room and sneak down into Severus's room. Classes for the day had been cancelled due to the chaos. Aurors had questioned both the Order Members who had been at the school thanks to their attempt to interrogate Harry and the teachers. Harry doubted they'd get anything. Dumbles was too cunning to leave behind any clues in Hogwarts.
The school had basically split into three groups, Dumbledore's loyal supports, those who supported the man's arrest, which included the deatheaters, and lastly those who were unsure where they stood. Fortunately, the old coots supporters were a minority, many had been shaken by the crimes the man had committed, however that didn't stop them from trying to torment Harry.
The most they had dared to do was yell taunts as Harry's spot at the top of defense as well as his position as a Lord of two Houses was enough to prevent anyone from directly attacking him. However it was a relief when he finally managed to get away and see Severus.
The older man was pacing in front of the fire place when Harry approached, and the older man turned and wrapped his arms around the teen. Harry sunk into his embrace.
"I'm sure you've heard about Dumbledore's escape by now. We should have known it was too easy, that he wouldn't go down without a fight." Severus murmured, as he held the younger man.
"Merlin, I hate that man," Harry whispered, pressing his head against his lover's chest. The idea that Dumbledore was once again on the loose and would no doubt be after him was not something he liked thinking about. While he didn't doubt that his lover and new family and friends would protect him, it didn't stop him from fearing the man who had caused him so much pain.
"Don't worry love, the Dark Lord will see that he is put down this time," Severus promised, before pressing a kiss to lover's forehead. Harry turned to look up at the dark eyed man. Seeing the love in the man's normally closed off expression, he pressed a kiss to his lips.
Sensing the teen needed reassurance, Severus immediately deepened the kiss. After a few minutes of ravaging the young man's mouth, he pulled back, smirking at the sight before him. Forgotten were the worries about Dumbledore, instead the teen was flushed with desire, lips red from the kissing and his green eyes glazed over in pleasure.
"Spend the night?" The Slytherin purred in the teen's ear. Harry was unable to do more than nod as the darker man wrapped his arms around the more slender teen and dragged him from the room.
LOL Cliffy
Actually this scene won't be continued in this story. I've decided that I'm going to try and finish this fic without fanfiction tossing it out the window. That being said the ss/hp/lm version is already more graphic. You can find it on the adultfanfiction site under the same pen name and title. Its under the threesome/moresome section if you are interest. Still only on like chapter 5 but is some changes. There will be more later, however I probably won't focus to much on it until after this is finished sometime around christmas. Love you all. Please Review otherwise I will let Dumbles do terrible things to Severus.
