Hey here is a new story! I know I'm confusing in some things but I please ask to bear with me.
Summary: Harry has not talked sense his real uncle died and that was when he was 9 years. His aunt remarried a year later and that's when his torture began. He entered Hogwarts (which has no houses in my story) and didn't talk to anyone. But all that changed when he learnt that he was…
This story has no four houses and each student gets a room of his or her own.

Chapter 10 - Year 6 (Part 2)
"No Master Severus, Albus Dumbledore is here. Says he wishes to talk to both of you" Dobby said. Severus look at Harry than, before turning back to the elf.
"Tell him we will be there in a moment," Severus said. The elf nodded bowed and disappeared. Severus and Harry stood and made their way back inside the house and towards the study. Both wizards entered the study and found Albus sitting in the seat facing away from the door. "Albus?"
"Severus! Harry! The minister gave me great news…of course it will benefit both of you" the old wizard said with a smile turning to look at them. Severus walked to the chair across from Albus and let Harry sit down while he stood at his side.
"What do you mean?" Severus asked.
"Well for one you won't have to go back to Tom" Albus said with a smile.
"Why?" Severus asked.
"We have other things to worry about my dear Severus, and one of them is for you to be safe for Harry. I don't think he can keep living without you." Albus said his smile disappearing.
"I have to help some how Albus…if I don't go and get information he…"
"I have taken care of that Severus" Albus said. Severus was about to keep arguing but stop when Harry grabbed his hand. Both stared into each other's eyes for a long moment before Severus sighed in defeat.
"Okay. What is the great news the minister gave you?" Severus asked looking at the old wizard.
"You and Harry are bound under the law of all kinds of creatures…a rare thing" Albus said his smile returning. Severus look beyond surprise, and Harry just look plain confused. He was smart, and knew the laws of all the creatures, but he didn't know that it was possible for wizards or witches to be able to bond under all the laws.
"Bond under all laws" Severus repeated surprised.
"Yes my dear boy, you two are not to be far from each other…and student/professor relationship won't work with you two. So I have decided that you, Severus won't be teaching Harry…I think I have the perfect candidate for that" Albus said calmly.
"Not teach Harry" Severus repeated disappointed.
"That's right" Albus said his smile disappearing once again. Severus stayed quiet not saying anything, and he didn't seem like he was going to say anything any time soon. "Is something the matter with that?"
"Well…Harry doesn't learn with others the way he does when he knows the person" Severus said looking at Harry. Albus looked thoughtful for a moment but said nothing for a while.
"Is that true Harry?" Albus asked the boy directly. Harry waved his hand and the quill in front of him began to scribble his answered.
"I don't tend to pay attention to others that I don't know…or trust. I pay more attention to what they are doing or what they are about to do. Hum…who is it anyways?"
Albus looked at Harry for a moment, and knew that neither of them was lying. "Well, her name is Niphadora Tonks…she's great at Potions master" Albus said.
"Tonks, the Auror?" Severus asked surprised.
"Yes, she is good at potions…and I think Harry will get along with her. If he decides its okay" Albus said.
"Well we will tell you a week before school. I will send you a letter with Dobby" Severus said. Than he remembered something Albus had said before. "Who will be taking my place? I mean if you are so calm, there must be someone inside already."
"Yes, and you know him" Albus said smiling.
"Who?" Severus asked confuse.
"Lucius Malfoy" Albus said and Severus noticed as Harry body tense in reaction to the name.
"I didn't know Lucius was on our side" Severus finally said.
"He has been for a while…I think that one of his reasons is young Mr. Malfoy" Albus said. Severus stared at the old wizard for a long moment.
"So that's the reason he kept pushing Draco like that" Severus said. Albus nodded but said nothing otherwise.
"The new reason is because Narcissa is pregnant" Albus said.
"I see, well tell Lucius, he's free to come with his family. To just send me a letter saying when he would be here" Severus said.
"I'll do that, now I'll take my leave" Albus said.
"I'll take you are going to diappeare away" Severus said when Albus was at the door.
"Yes, I have to stop somewhere else before going to Hogwarts. I must do many things actually" Albus said smiling.
"Well I'll go with you to the door" Severus said. He looked down at Harry who had gripped his sleeve. "I'll be back in a moment, I promise." Harry nodded reductively, and let go Severus' sleeve. Severus kissed Harry's forehead and left with Albus to the door.
"I see that Harry is attached to you" Albus said as both walked down the hall.
"No, its not that really" Severus said as both stopped in front of the living room. Albus looked at Severus with a questioning look. "Dobby always comes to see what I'm doing every five minutes. He did it last summer too, so I know…anyways I asked Dobby once why he did it and he said that Harry sent him to see if I was still in the house. I think he is more afraid of me leaving, than staying."
"Have you asked Harry?" Albus asked.
"No, I don't want him to think that I'm mad that he keeps sending Dobby. I'm just worry that he won't ever trust me" Severus said softly. Albus opened his mouth to say something when Dobby appeared at their side. "Is something the matter, Dobby?"
"No, Master Harry Potter wants you and Albus Dumbledore…if he was still here…to go to the study" Dobby said.
"Did he say why?" Severus asked. The small elf shook his head. "Thank you, Dobby, you can go finish your chores."
"Yes, Master Severus" Dobby said with a bow and left at once. Severus and Albus look at each other for a moment before walking back down the hall to the study. Both entered and found Harry still sitting on the chair. Harry looked up at them for a moment before standing and going up to Severus. Harry handed an envelope to Severus and another to Albus.
"Did this just arrive?" Severus asked Harry. The young wizard nodded slightly as he grabbed Severus' sleeve once again. Everything stayed silent in the room as Harry stared out the window while Severus stared at Harry's grip on his sleeve, while Albus just stared at both of his favorite people.
"Well why don't you read the letter Severus" Albus suggested. Severus nodded and opened the letter as Harry looked at Severus' hands work. Once Severus opened the envelope he took out the piece of parchment.
"Dear Severus Snape," the black hair wizard began to read.
Hey there dear friend. When you read this letter it's because we are dead and our son is with you. Its late at night and we have a bad feeling that something will happen to us sooner or later so we decided to write this and send it to Gringotts to wait for the moment to come.
Since you are reading this we know that our son trusts you in a way or another. I know that you are risking your life by going to that son-of-a-bitch…sorry for that but its true. We really appreciate you doing that, and we also know that the other spy's identity is well protected for his or her own good.
Anyways we are not writing because of that, we just want to thank you for taking care of our son. For accepting to do what we asked even when he was just a baby. We know that we did the right thing, and that our son will be happy with you know matter what. That he will find happiness with you.
We also know that you won't let anything happened to him while under your care…and if something happened to him that you would make sure he would feel safe.
Severus we know that Harry was attached to you in someway sense the moment he was born. We know because you were the only one of the three of our most loyal friends that he would look for. Lily and me were ecstatic that our son would react to your presence every time you entered a room he was in.
We don't know if you noticed but we certainly did, and Lily began to investigate about the subject sense we can't do much in this house. Sev, we love you as one of our family and we always will…we also own you the 'favor' that you did for Lily and me while we were in school.
Take care Severus, friend, brother, and much more…and make sure that you are happy along with our son. We love you both, and we will be look out for the both of you from the sky.
Sincerely and with Love,
"James and Lily Potter" Severus finished reading and looked up at the other two wizards. Harry was smiling slyly and Severus was glad that the young wizard was happy to learn new things. "What do you think, Albus?"
"I think that Lily and James were more than happy to do what they did" Albus said as he opened his envelope.
"I think so too" Severus said as he gave a kiss to Harry on the forehead. Severus looked at Albus who was reading the letter in silence, his eyes tickling even more…if possible. "What does it say?"
"Dear Albus Dumbledore" the old wizard began to read from the beginning.
Hello dear headmaster of Hogwarts. We decided to inform you of what we have done. You are the head of the order and you are like a father to both Lily and me. We really appreciate your effort to keep our son and us alive…after all that has happened.
We are writing this on the night of the 31st of July, our son's first birthday. Everyone, except Severus, have left…he is down stairs at this moment with Harry. His bonded…even when we had a big argument with him…Lily convinced him. I'm not surprised at that…anyways we just wanted you to know why we did what we did.
Severus and Harry are to be together by fate…they are a half of the other. They are what the other needs, and I'm…we are sure Harry will be more than happy with Severus. We know that neither will let the other suffer…not willingly. We know that Severus is risking his life for us…and now we know that he has a new reason to come back to us.
His reason is our son, and without doubt we know that he cares for our son more than he lets anyone see. I can hear Harry giggling at something Severus did. He always does when he spends time with our friend…and I'm glad he is part of this family.
Anyways…we want you to please make sure the two of them are happy. Lily and me know that if Harry…and I don't want to sound as if it will happen…but if Harry dies, Lily and me are afraid Severus will do something reckless.
We ask you to protect both of them from doing any damage to themselves. To not let either do any damage if the other is no longer in the world. Lily and me don't wish to have both of them up in the sky with us because of something they did to themselves. Please make sure both are happy…and that both are safe from any danger.
Our regards and wish you to live many more years. We love you as our father, Albus Dumbledore.
Sincerely and with much Love,
"James and Lily Potter" Albus finished reading his letter his smile never disappearing for a moment. Severus was stunned at everything he had heard. He wasn't sure of what had happen.
'Well that explains a lot of things when the two of them acted the way they did' Severus thought as Harry looked out the window smiling at the sky.
"Well, I wish to stay longer my boys, but I must talk with some people and than go to Gringotts to do some business, I'll tell Lucius your message" Albus said. Severus nodded as Albus left the study. Not having the need or mind to walk the old wizard to the door again. His mind was going a hundred miles a second. He was thinking a lot of things at once and he didn't know when he would stop. All he knew at the moment was that Harry was destined to be with him no matter what.
Severus felt a tug on his arm and look at Harry. The young wizard was looking at him curiously and Severus almost lost control of his own actions. He smiled at Harry, kissed the young wizard's hand and hugged him, but said nothing.
Break Line
Two weeks later Severus received a letter from Lucius saying he would arrive that day at four o'clock sharp, if it was okay. Severus sent a reply with Dobby, saying that they should bring some of their things to stay over for a while. When the small elf went back with Lucius' reply Severus went up to his guest rooms to prepare two of the rooms. To concentrated in his work he didn't watch time go by.
At four o'clock sharp he heard noise downstairs. Severus concerned and curious at what was going on walked out of the room he had prepared for Draco and walked down the hallway and down the stairs. There at the entrance of the living room stood Harry with his wand out and pointing it at something…or someone in the living room.
"Harry?" Severus questioned softly and in a quiet tone that no one but Harry would be able to hear. Said wizard looked at Severus slightly before turning his attention back to whoever or whatever was in the living room.
"We mean no harm" a male's strong voice came. Severus recognized the voice as Lucius' and decided to walk down the rest of the stairs and behind Harry. There stood a sight that he never thought he would see. At the middle of the living room stood Lucius with Draco and Narcissa behind him protectively. "Some help" Lucius said to Severus when the dark hair wizard stood still.
"Harry, its okay. They are on our side" Severus said softly. Harry lowered his wand and turned to hug Severus. "Sorry about that Luc, I forgot to tell Harry, that you were to come with your family. I was too distracted."
"It's okay my friend…it was just surprising to see Mr. Potter with his wand out and pointing it at us. I didn't know he was able to do magic out of school" Lucius said as Narcissa and Draco step to his side.
"His magic wouldn't be able to be traced unless he was in real danger…or if he was using magic to defend himself or hurt someone that was dangerous or didn't deserve punishment." Severus said as he stroke Harry's raven hair. "Calm down Harry, if you don't you will end up hurting someone."
"Is he this unstable?" Lucius asked.
"Not really, Draco should know. Harry is usually calm…except when it comes to people he really doesn't know" Severus said as he felt Harry relax.
"I see" Lucius said and Severus could see the older blond look at his son but said nothing. "I didn't mean for him to be uncomfortable."
"Its okay, he just needs to know you. He is like this with everyone that he doesn't really know…especially if they have to do with the Dark Lord" Severus said.
"I understand" Lucius said as Harry turned to look at the family of three. Draco stepped forward and extended his right hand towards Harry in silence. Harry looked at Severus who nodded slightly at his young bonded.
"You still wish to be my friend even after I totally ignored you for the past five years?" Harry asked with his hands in a rush.
"Of course, if you want to" Draco said with his hands, a smile on his face. Harry and Draco stared at each other for a long moment before both extended their hands in front of them as a greeting. Severus looked at Narcissa and Lucius, both had a questioning look on their face…both looked confused.
"They just became friends" Severus said as Harry and Draco began to say things with their hands at high speed and Severus smiled at everything they seemed to be talking about in a silence only him, Severus, of the three adults could understand.
"Their hands are dizzying me" Narcissa said suddenly making Draco chuckle and Harry smile slyly. Severus was just happy that Harry finally had a friend…someone that he was sure would help him through school.
