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 since his real uncle died and that was when he was 9 years old. 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 ~ 16 - Year 7 (Part 3)
"Just promise to stay calm while I'm gone and I will go" Severus said than.
"I promise" Harry said and kiss Severus on the lips. Severus returned the kiss, it had been a while since they had kissed. Severus hadn't wanted to do it afraid that he would scare Harry away. Even when his young bonded slept in the same room as him. Harry would just cuddle up to him and let Severus tell him stories of Lily, James, Sirius, Remus, and all that were involved in Harrys life in hopes his young bonded would remember.
"Okay than, you know what to do if you need something" Severus said when they separated and summoned his cape.
"Yes, I know what to do. Be careful, and remember before the sun sets" Harry said. Severus nodded as Narcissa gave Rose to Draco. The Malfoy couple stepped into the fireplace and floo'd away. Severus put up stronger anti apparition wards, and than timed the floo system to be warded when he left, and opened only when he and the Malfoy couple came through it.
"I'll be back" were Severus last words before the flames took him away, and to the Liking Cauldron in Diagon Alley.
~Break Line~
Harry felt panic start to come to him, but once he saw Rose in Draco's arms he calmed down. He walked up to them and sat down on the couch, next to a standing Draco. "Have you asked Ginny Weasley out?" Harry asked suddenly making the young blond look at him in surprise. "Sorry…I…"
"No Harry don't worry, you just surprised me" Draco said soothing the raven-haired teen. Harry didn't look convince and Draco smile slightly. "I asked her before my family came here. My and her family were surprised, even Ron. Either way they accepted that we love each other and that we want to stay together. She accepted to go out with me, and our parents agreed to get to know each other for our sake."
"Do I know her parents? Have I ever met them?" Harry asked as Draco let him have Rose in his arms.
"No, the only ones you have met were the ones that where at your old home. No one really got near you, because you wouldn't acknowledge them…but I didn't give up easily. I wanted to know you, the real you. The one that wasn't famous, the one that forgave Tom for killing your parents…but unable to forgive the one to hurt Uncle Sev. I wanted to be your friend, the one you could count on," Draco said softly.
"How about Petunia and Dudley?" Harry asked as he began to rock Rose in his arms.
"Mrs. Petunia Dursley is your aunt. She took care of you, or that's what Dudley tells me. I really don't know much about them…but Severus does. He knows almost everything about your family" Draco said sitting down on the couch.
"I see, I heard you talk about an album," Harry said looking at the young blond.
"Yeah, you had one here and one at your aunt's house. I think each is different, I don't know…but I saw one in your old room. When I saw it for the first time, I noticed that you looked at it all the time" Draco said with a smile. Harry nodded but said nothing.
~Break Line~
Severus looked around the stores, Harrys' 17th birthday was coming up and he wanted to buy something for his young bonded. He looked around, the Malfoy family with him at all times. They finally came in front of a jewelry store, Severus entered and the Malfoy couple followed curiously. "Sev, what are we doing in here?" Narcissa asked.
"Harrys' birthday is soon, and I want to buy something for him" Severus said looking around. He came to a stop at seeing a bracelet connected to a ring by a small chain; the ring had a black pearl in the middle. "Excuse me sir, how much is this bracelet and ring?" Severus asked. The wizard neared him and looked at the jewelry that Severus was pointing at.
"That's for someone that is bonded to you, sir," the wizard said softly. He looked old, hazel eyes, white hair, and thin lips.
"For a bonded?" Severus asked surprised. The old wizard nodded and Severus looked at Narcissa and Lucius.
"I think that your bonded will like it. Why don't you get it?" Lucius said with a small smile. Severus nodded and turned back to the old wizard.
"I would like to get it, how much will it be?" Severus asked.
"It will be 2,000 galleons," the old wizard said. As Severus took out the money the old man went through a door behind the counter and came back with another bracelet and ring. He put them both in the box and at Severus questioning look the old man smiled slightly. "This is the other one, your bonded must put this one on…since you have chosen that one for your bonded. Once that's done, you have to seal the love you two feel for each other with a kiss."
"What does this bracelets really symbolize?" Severus asked as the old man worked with the small boxes.
"The black pearl means love and protection for the other. The emerald pearl means love and trust for the other. Each pearl has different meanings depending on the couple. I can see in you that you love and want to protect your bonded under any circumstance, and I'm guessing that by this your bonded loves you and trusts you with that" the old man said as he finished with the bracelets. Each in a different box.
"Thank you" Severus said as he pay the old man, and shrank the small boxes. "Now to find something for Dobby."
"Dobby?" Lucius asked surprised as the three walked out of the store.
"Yes Dobby, he has taken well care of Harry and I think he deserves to be reward for that," Severus said as they kept walking down the street.
~Break Line~
Harry began to walk back and forth in the study as the sun began to set. He had been having a conversation with Draco, and the blond was currently sleeping with Rose on a couch big enough for both of them. Green flames came to life, and even though Harry knew no one but Severus and the Malfoy couple were going to be able to come through, he took out his wand and pointed at the newcomers.
"I see you still get on the defensive when one comes through the floo" Severus said as Harry hugged him.
"The sun is setting and I thought you were going to break your promise" Harry said softly as the Malfoy couple carried their kids to their room leaving the couple alone.
"I would never break a promise to you. I was just finishing buying some things that you will need for school…and I wanted to make sure everything was ready for the end of this month" Severus said kissing Harry on the forehead.
"Dobby came twice saying dinner was going to be ready in a moment," Harry said than as Severus begin to move them in small circles.
"Now that we don't have to worry about being discovered, I'm going to ask Albus to prepare another dance for the holidays" Severus said as they stopped spinning around.
"Another dance?" Harry asked curiously.
"Yes love, another dance like the one in your fifth year…and now I'm going to be the one to ask you to go with me," Severus said.
"I'll be glad to go with you" Harry said smiling at Severus, and leaning his head against his chest. Dobby appeared than.
"Dinner is ready masters," the small elf informed them.
"Very well, call Lucius and Narcissa. I think Draco is still sleeping" Severus said. The small elf nodded and bowed and disappeared from the living room.
"I think I'm remembering more…but I'm afraid to sleep now," Harry said
"Why love?" Severus asked softly backing away a little so he could see Harrys face.
"I don't want to keep forgetting Sev, I feel like my world goes down. I don't remember my family…the ones that took care of me for so long. The ones that feed me and treated me with love" Harry said a lone tear making its way down his tan cheek.
"You'll remember love. I know you will remember" Severus said drying the tear with his thumb.
"But when Sev?! I have gone like this for…I don't know how long, and I still awake with no knowledge of who everyone around me is! I want to remember everything, to remember Uncle Vernon and his teachings. The one that told me that life is not about hating but of forgiving all those you could…and now I don't even remember that!" Harry screamed in annoyance and began to pace back and forth.
Severus stared at his young bonded and let him keep screaming what he thought he didn't remember when he was saying it out loud. It was a chuckle from the door that made Harry stop screaming.
"Draco, why are you laughing?" Harry asked confuse.
"Harry, you just said that you didn't remember anything about your life…and just a moment ago you summarized your whole life" the young blond said and walked up to his friend. "You need to know, that it doesn't matter when you will remember, but what you remember every time you wake up. Keep in mind that no matter what, no one that loves you will leave you alone. Not even when they are dead. As long as they are in your heart, and you in theirs there's nothing on earth that can break the connection."
"Thanks, I needed that" Harry said going back to Severus and hugging the older man. "Sorry for loosing control like that."
"Don't worry love, it's okay" Severus said with a small smile.
"Dinner is ready, why don't we all go eat" Lucius suggested. Everyone nodded, and as Draco turned to leave Harry talked once again.
"Sorry for waking you up."
"It won't matter if I'm dead Harry, when you need me, I'll be there one way or another. Always backing you up my friend" Draco said turning slightly before leaving with his parents. Harry smiled than, and Severus led him to the dining room.
~Break Line~
The end of the month was near, and Harry awoke with the knowledge that the Malfoy family was staying there. That Draco was his friend, and that he wasn't alone no matter what. Severus was glad of the progress his young bonded had made. Harry was currently sleeping on the couch, as green flames came to life in the chimney.
"Severus?" Sirius' voice came. Severus walked up to the fireplace and knelt down.
"What is it Siri?" Severus asked.
"Is it okay if Remus, Petunia, Dudley, Ron, Hermione, and me come through?" Sirius asked. Severus looked over at Harry for a moment.
"Yeah, and bring some stuff so you guys can stay for a while. Remember that the day is near, and everything needs to be prepared and what other way than staying over" Severus said turning back to Sirius.
"Okay than, we will be over in an hour or so" Sirius said and at Severus' nod his face disappeared. Severus looked at Harry once again, he kissed Harrys forehead and walked out the study.
"Lucius! Narcissa! Draco! Dobby!" Severus called out knowing all were already awake. Not long after he called, said people and elf appeared in front of him.
"What is it Severus?" Lucius asked.
"Sirius, Remus, Petunia, Dudley, Ron, and Hermione are coming over in an hour or so, and I want you guys to help me clean rooms for them" Severus said.
"Have you told Harry?" Draco asked curiously, and at Severus look everyone smile and shook their heads even the small elf.
"What? It will be fun, to see who is in front of who" Severus said as they walked up the stairs and to the guest rooms on the right side of the hallway.
"I sometimes don't recognize you anymore Sev. The only time you used to do those kind of things was when Lily and James lived," Narcissa said.
"I have someone that has brought that back Cissa. I'm glad for it too" Severus said as he entered a room and the other four begin to clean the rooms they entered the muggle way. It was about an hour and a half when everyone heard a crash down stairs. Severus walked out of the room, forgetting why he hadn't told Harry anything.
"What was that?" Draco asked.
"I don't know" Severus said. The three wizards and witch walked down the hall. At the door stood Harry, wand out…Severus still not remembering what he had originally planned began to walk down the stairs. "Harry?" he asked so softly that the Malfoy family almost didn't hear. Said wizard looked at him for a moment before looking back inside the living room.
"We didn't come to harm you" Remus voice came and Severus remembered everything. He walked behind Harry and looked at the sight in front of him. Remus had Sirius behind him, as Ron had Hermione, and Dudley had his mother. "A little help here, Sev."
"It's okay Harry, they all are friends" Severus said softly. Harry lowered his wand and turned to hug Severus possessively. Lucius, Draco, and Narcissa walked down the stairs and into the living room, the three were smirking.
"Please tell me that he didn't do this on purpose," Sirius said.
"Not really, he didn't want Harry to be scared, but he did wanted to see what position you guys would end up in, and apparently one that he didn't expect" Lucius said.
Remus and Sirius turned to accuse their friend, but at seeing the smile on his face as he stroke Harrys raven hair stopped them. It had been so long since they had seen their friend smile like that…the last time they remembered that was when Lily and James were young. When they still lived.
"It has been so long since he smiled like that," Sirius said than.
"Indeed" Lucius said as everyone stared at the couple by the door.
Severus felt as Harrys' body relaxed completely, and he looked up at the guests. "Did you wake him up?" he asked as he put one hand behind Harrys' knees and the other on his small back.
"Technicality he awoke when we came through the floo," Sirius said with a mock glare at his friend.
"Sorry about that…I didn't want him to get scare like that. He does it every time someone comes through the floo, even if I had warn him, he would have still done it" Severus said as he sat on the couch and motioned everyone else to do the same.
"It's okay, it has been so long since you did something like that" Sirius said. Severus just smile slightly and went back to look at Harrys now peaceful face.
~Break Line~
He could hear voices around him. He could hear the familiarity in each voice, but he didn't know who they were. He stayed still as he felt Severus right beside him. "Has he looked at the album?" a young male's voice came. One that didn't belong to Draco, his friend.
"He looked at it at the beginning of the month, Severus had gone to do some things and had to go with my parents to Diagon Alley. I show him the album and explain some of the things he didn't recognized or understand" Draco's voice came to his right.
"I see" the same young male's voice came…and Harry wanted to know who it was.
"Don't worry Dudley, he will remember in time" Severus voice came. Harry smiled mentally when his bonded said the name.
"I know" the boy said. Harry stayed like that, wanting to know who else was present, but unconsciousness took over him once again.
~Break Line~
Severus could feel that Harry was awake, and that he wanted to know his cousin's name, and once he said it. He felt Harry trying to fight unconsciousness, but was not successful. "Does he keep forgetting things?" Hermione asked than.
"He remembers the Malfoy family now, after he began to scream about not being able to remember anything…and in the process telling us what had happened during his life" Severus said looking at the young witch.
"I see, well…than that means, that Harry needs to get mad more often in order to remember others" Hermione said.
"No, Ms. Granger…it doesn't work like that" Severus said and stayed quiet. No one talked hoping the man would explain.
"May I explain?" Draco finally asked. Severus looked at his godson for a moment before nodding. "Harry remembers because he was frustrated about not remembering anything about his life…and when I spoke I only said things that came from the heart at that moment. It's as if he was able to relate things with me, as I talked truth to him" Draco explained softly.
"Than why did he remembered Severus first? How is it that he remembered him right away?" Ron asked.
"Well, Uncle Sev protected him, and Harry had fallen in love with him. A bond couple is not easily forgotten…even when one of them forgets everything. Deep down they will trust that person. They will trust that no one will hurt him or her with the other near by" Draco said softly.
"How do you know all this?" Sirius asked making Severus look up at him.
"We had to find information on situations like this, when Harry lost control of his magic in the battle field, the only reason he lost control of his magic was because Tom had hurt Severus. Harry was unable to forgive that, he forgave Tom for killing his parents…but he would have or would never forgive someone that hurts Severus. That's why he reacts like that when anyone comes through the floo," Draco said.
The flames came suddenly to life, and everyone watch as Harry awoke in an instead taking out his wand and putting himself in a defensive position in front of Severus. What no one expected was Harry to lower his wand and turn his back to look at Severus.
"I know that he is not dangerous and that he wouldn't hurt me…but what I don't understand is why is all these people are here," Harry said to Severus in a low voice.
"I told you that everything had to be done by the end of the month," Severus said.
"Yes, but what?" Harry asked as the flames came back to life, this time Harry didn't turned around.
"That I can't tell you, Harry" Severus said. Harry kept staring at him, and Severus sight. "It's a surprise."
"Well since you can't tell me…" Harry turned to Draco. "…Dray?"
"No Harry, don't get me into this. I don't know what he is talking about" Draco said looking away.
"Yes, you know and you will tell me" Harry said.
"No Har, please don't involve me" Draco said standing up from his sit.
"So, no one will tell me…fine than" Harry said and left the room in a rash. Everyone stared at him in surprise. Severus begun to laugh suddenly making everyone turned to look at him.
"What's so funny Severus?" Lucius and Remus asked at the same time. Severus stared at them for a moment before laughing harder and standing up. He walked to the door and turned to everyone in the living room.
"Lunch will be in a moment since we all missed breakfast…" Severus said and snapped his fingers. Dobby appeared at once.
"Have you call master?" the small elf asked anxiously.
"Please serve Lunch in the garden, Harry and I won't eat with our guests today. I must talk with him, everyone please excuse me" Severus said and left leaving everyone surprised.
~Break Line~
Harry began to pace back and forth in Severus and his room. He wanted to know what his bonded was hiding. What was so important that he couldn't know? Harry stopped when the door opened and Severus entered. The young man walked to the window giving his back to Severus.
"Just like the little Harry I remember" Severus said than. Harry turned to look at him questioningly. "When you learned to walk and I wouldn't tell you anything you would walk away mad because I wouldn't tell you the surprise I had for you."
"Well than tell me" Harry said.
"It's better if I show you another surprise" Severus said.
"Another?" Harry asked.
"Yes, come" Severus said waving his hand taking the anti apparition wards down for a moment. Harry walked up to him and hugged him. "Close your eyes and don't open them until I tell you."
"But-" Harry begin to protest but Severus stopped him by silencing him with an index finger.
"Remember it's a surprise" Severus said softly.
"I trust you" Harry said and hugged Severus turning his face towards Severus' chest. Harry felt as the floor under him disappeared, before touching ground once again.
"You can open your eyes now" Severus said softly. Harry opened his eyes and turned around to see the most beautiful sight.
"Where are we?" Harry asked softly.
"This was your parents' first home. James used to say that I would keep it once you were old enough so we could live here…to come here when we wanted to be alone" Severus said embracing Harry from behind.
"It's so beautiful" Harry said tears of happiness rolling down his face.
"Why are you crying love?" Severus asked.
"Because I'm happy" Harry answered turning around in Severus' arms and kissed the older man on the lips. Severus kissed Harry back, slowly, softly, with care and love. With great trust for the other.
Severus separate when the need for air came, and his black eyes met bright emerald ones. "Do you want to see the inside?" Severus asked softly.
"Yes!" Harry beamed and Severus smiled back at him. He kissed Harrys' forehead before leading his bonded to the house. The small path was beautiful, with flowers on the path and the door was emerald. "The color of my eyes" Harry said softly.
"Yes, your mum's eyes were emerald too. Your dad loved the colour, and when you were born and had the same colour of her eyes he said you were the most wonderful miracle" Severus said smiling.
"I love the colour of your eyes more" Harry said in a low tone that Severus almost didn't hear.
"I'm flattered, but let's enter and see the interior," Severus said. Harry nodded and Severus led him inside.
The inside of the house was beautiful. The couches were a light tan; the curtains were light colors, matching the couches. There were portraits and photos around the house. Above the chimney was a portrait of two people, that Harry guessed to be his parents but he wasn't sure. He turned around ready to ask Severus.
"That's Lily and James" Severus said pointing at the portrait above the chimney. Harry turned back to look at the portrait with a small shy smile on his face.
~Break Line~
Severus walked with Harry back to the spot they had appeared at as the sun begun to set. "This is so beautiful Sev, and I don't want to forget I came here with you today" Harry said looking down. Severus put a hand under Harrys chin and made him look up at him.
"You won't forget love, mark my word you won't forget we came here" Severus said and kissed Harry on the lips with all the love he felt for his young bonded.
"I'll trust you with that" Harry said when they separated. Severus smiled at Harry and the young man couldn't resist and return the smile.
"Let's go back home," Severus said embracing Harry.
"I'm home wherever you are," Harry said leaning his head against Severus and letting his body relax completely as he let sleep take over. Severus carried him bridal style and apperated away, making sure the wards around his house recognized him before letting him pass and settle in Harrys' and his bedroom.
He laid Harry on the bed, kissed his forehead and smiled. "You won't forget the place we went love. You can't forget because that home was your parents, and it will become ours once you are out of school" Severus said into Harrys' ear before kissing him on the cheek and leaving the room to go to the others.
