The four of them were sitting in a storage room adjacent to the hall the party was in. Harry was telling Snape the funniest joke he'd ever heard about a little green man. Sev was laughing too hard to notice Ron and Hermione had started snogging beside them. Harry pointed the couple out and this stared them off on another round of drunken giggles.
" I knew it!" Harry giggled as he and Sev leaned against each other's foreheads for support.
"You look like a Cyclops!"
They laughed again as they pressed foreheads and noses together so it looked like the other had only one eye, their faces framed by Sev's greasy long hair and Harry's short tousled hair.
The giggles died down and Harry kissed him.
/ I was drunk /
Sev kissed back.
" So what do we have here?"
Fred Weasley was grinning from the doorway.
" Well its about time Ron and Hermione got together but Harry..." Fred shook his head and laughed, "I always knew you had it in you. Anyway, George if about to start the games so come out and join the rest of the party."
Harry was blushing and smiling. Ron was looking at them a little shocked. Hermione said it was great that Harry finally found someone. They went out and joined the rest of the party.
/ Some chaperone I was/
Much of the night went past as a blur. Sev couldn't remember exactly when but at one point he found that he had been holding Harry's hand for quite some time. He also realized that for the first time in a long while he was having fun.
Snape hated Potter and his friends as students but now he was seeing them as ,well, equals and seeing things from their point of view he found them quite likable. Even Harry. Especially Harry.
