Having been so late, Harrison was beginning to get a little sleepy while being wrapped up so comfortably between both Thomas and Severus. Realizing that his courtship contract curfew would be arriving rather quickly, he began to fidget in their hold. Severus tried to glare at the teen, but Harrison was rather immune after their relationship improved during his seventh year. Thomas' voice, however, was sharp when he curtly ordered the teen to stop squirming. When Harrison pointed out the fact that his curfew was approaching, Thomas reminded him of the emergency clause that stated the courter was entitled to stay with the courtee in dire circumstances. Thomas was adamantly of the opinion that these were just such a type.
Harrison groaned, but gave in, calling for Kreacher to inform Sirius and Remus that he wouldn't be home due to a work issue. He didn't want to have to explain where he was actually staying, or the situation, which he was sure would be in the papers in the morning, or by the next day at the very latest, and he knew Kreacher would keep his secret. He liked 'little master Harrison' better than 'bad master Sirius.'
Once the elf had popped away to deliver the message, Harrison was snuggling back down between his lovers when Thomas sat up.
"Severus," he said silkily, locking eyes with the man. "Our little love was in danger today."
Severus immediately understood the implied idea presented by his Lord-turned-lover, and pinned Harrison with his dark gaze as he replied, "Yes, he was indeed, Thomas."
"He was not being appropriately careful, taking the necessary precautions, using his Slytherin self-preservation to keep himself alive and whole for us, was he?" the oldest purred.
Harrison's eyes flew open at the start of the conversation and had continued growing as the two men talked above him. He was in for it now. He squeaked when Thomas' hand gripped his waist more tightly, the man's nails digging in the tender flesh.
"He was not, I think," Severus said smoothly, his hands combing through the still unruly black locks of the youngest.
"Hmm…" Thomas hummed as his free hand stroked his own chin in an exaggerated thinking pose. "I think Harrison needs to be reminded of these instructions."
"I agree," the dark eyed man continued the little game, "I think he should be punished so he understands the consequences of his actions."
Harrison squeaked again as four hands and arms were wrapped around him, preventing any large movement he might have made to escape their clutches.
"Yes, I think our dear Harrison does need a little punishment," the red-eyed dark lord decided. "Perhaps he will remember to contact his suitors when there are problems in the future."
And with that the two men carried their small love off to the master bedroom.

The next morning, the two men sleeping in the comfort of the large bed woke slowly. Sniffing and whimpers could be heard from their pet who was still suspended above them. Severus slowly disentangled himself from the silky sheets and stood to quietly observe the teen. He had clearly dozed off at some point, as even with the small whimpers coming from his mouth, his eyes were shut, and hadn't opened at his movement. He walked silently around the fitfully sleeping boy, and tapped Thomas on the shoulder. The two men locked eyes and Severus pushed his thoughts regarding contacting Harrison's supervisor to alert them to his absence. Thomas agreed and pushed his thoughts for waking the teen to the potions master who smirked, and nodded.
Severus quickly grabbed a robe and buttoned it. He strode quickly from the room and to the single fireplace in the house that was connected to the floo network. He tossed in a pinch of floo powder and stuck his head in the flames, leaving a floo message for Harrison's manager regarding his absence. He indicated that it was due to the stress of the previous day and that he would be back to work the following day with no issues. Necessary steps complete, he swiftly returned to the bedroom, seeing Thomas had spent the time observing their intended.
Sharing a glance, the two moved simultaneously. Severus began stroking his hands across the sleeping teen's body, and kissing the pliant lips. Harrison woke with a cry which was swallowed by a busy mouth. The potion master's tongue was mapping Harrison's mouth with purpose, stroking the wet muscle and surging in and out, mimicking the actions which were about to take place.

Harrison was adrift in black warmth. He reveled in the comfort afforded him, and enjoyed the blank darkness. Slowly, sensations brushed against his heavily sleeping mind and blackness shifted into a kaleidoscope of color before settling slowly on a starry night sky. Harrison could hear quiet speech, and feel more from the outside world as he awoke slowly from his orgasm induced blackout. He felt fully comfortable again, and warm.
He blinked his eyes open slowly to see both men pressed close to him, their hands rubbing different parts of his body. He was completely relaxed, boneless almost, as they cajoled his weary body into a pliant puddle. Once they determined his body was sufficiently restored, they offered him water and thinly sliced fruit, allowing him small bites and sips as they took turns feeding him until all the fruit was gone. He teased a bit by wrapping his red lips around their fingers as they presented him with pieces of fruit, or by lapping at the juices which ran down their fingers, but was too tired and comfortable to do anything serious about the low level arousal slowly dripping through his veins like thick honey.
Deeming him awake and aware enough for further care, they carried him carefully into the bath, where a house elf had filled the tub with heavenly warm water and a restorative bath oil of Severus' own brewing. They enjoyed the comfort of the bath for almost an hour before Thomas noted the prune-like wrinkles on their fingers, and ordered them all out of the bath.
Thomas lifted the teen to his feet gently and Severus wrapped him in an overly large bath towel, that when fully draped around him, made him look rather childlike. They assured him his workplace had been notified of his absence for the day, and instructed that he was to do nothing strenuous since they had taken full advantage of his body the previous evening and prior to their bath.
Once they were all comfortably ensconced in the parlor, Harrison wrapped up snugly in a fuzzy warm blanket, Thomas spoke seriously, "Now, Harrison, much as you enjoyed the events of last night and this morning, it was punishment."
Harrison flushed and nodded mutely.
"And what were you punished for?" Severus continued.
"Not being careful enough at work," Harrison said quietly, head bowed.
"And how will you resolve that in the future?" Thomas inquired.
"I'll be more careful about how I handle belligerent muggles. And hopefully convince Julius to call for backup sooner," he decided.
Severus looked at Thomas sharply at his indrawn breath when Harrison implied he might have contacted the aurors sooner had Julius not prevented it, but could do nothing about the situation right now.
"And about us?" the potion master asked.
"I'll floo, owl, or send a patronus if there's even a slight chance I'll be delayed," he said meekly, blinking up at his once professor.
"Yes, you will," Thomas spoke commandingly, even as he adjusted Harrison's position to be leaning against him. "We worry about you, love," he finished quietly, pressing his lips to the teen's messy hair.
Harrison turned, and pressed their mouths together, tongue shyly darting out to tangle with the older man's. He turned and pouted a bit at Severus until the man also leaned forward and allowed him his kiss.
