Chapter Twenty-Six

The Boy-Who-Lived whimpered and ducked behind the nearest person, Remus. Harry peeked around the werewolf when he realized that the muggle was bound to the spot he was in.

"I'm going to kill you, boy," Vernon growled. The entire room tensed. Sirius snarled, and Severus and Remus pulled their wands out.

"I would refrain from saying one more thing about Harry Potter, or you will have more full trained wizards cursing you that you'd ever be able to count," Severus sneered at Harry's uncle.

"That freak got what he deserved," Vernon glared back.

"Silentium!" Severus and Remus both cast it on the ruddy faced man.

"Vernon Dursley, you just sentenced yourself to prison for life with those two statements," Fudge told him.

"And if word of this gets out to public, you'll be dead in a matter of hours for harming the Boy-Who-Lived," Remus bared his teeth slightly.

***

"We have your aunt and cousin's statements, Mr. Potter. We just need yours. We don't need the extent of your injuries, just that he did in fact hit you," The female auror, who Harry found out was named Erin McKinney, said to the teen.

Harry nodded, still behind his second godfather partially. At his request, the other auror had taken Vernon out of the room. Sirius, still as a god, stood protectively beside the young wizard. Severus looked as if he wanted to be in that position, but only to those who knew about Harry and Severus's relationship.

"He…he did hit me," Harry struggled with the words. Remus laid his hand on Harry's shoulder in a show of support and comfort.

Erin nodded. "Thank you Mr. Potter. I realize that was hard for you."

Dumbledore stood and escorted her and Fudge out of the office. Once they were out, Sirius changed back with a scowl on his face.

"Those stupid bastards! They shouldn't have brought that…that monster! in here!"

Harry sank down into a chair, not really aware of anyone else in the room anymore.

"Harry? C'mon, you can stay in our quarters," Remus knelt beside the chair.

The green-eyed boy shook his head. "I think I'll go to Draco's rooms. I…I want to be alone right now."

"Okay. But if you need us, you know where we are," Sirius told him, mirroring Remus's position. Severus looked uncomfortable as he watched the family.

***

"Thanks, you two," Harry whispered as he hugged his godfathers.

"Of course," Remus answered.

"Come get us if you need us, Harry," Sirius told him. "Or you can use the fireplace to call us."

"Thank you," Harry smiled slightly. Sirius smiled back and ruffled his hair. Remus smiled too, and tried to undo what Sirius had done to Harry's hair. Harry let out a small chuckle as the two left Draco's rooms. Harry yawned slightly and went to get in Draco's bed. He crawled beneath the familiar covers and fell asleep.

***

Harry awoke sometime later to the bed moving slightly. Harry looked over and saw Severus sitting next to him. Harry smiled up at the older man, who reached over to cup his cheek.

"How are you?"

"Better than I was," Harry answered truthfully. Severus bent down and placed a chaste kiss on his lover's lips. Harry smiled and snuggled into Severus. The older man picked him up slightly and pulled Harry into his lap. Harry giggled.

No words were spoken for several minutes, just kisses and snuggles.

"Do you feel like going to class?" Severus spoke finally.

"Not really, but I'll go anyway," Harry yawned.

"You're exhausted, Harry. I can tell. The Headmaster has already informed the staff that you might not attend classes today," Severus petted the boy's hair. "You should take advantage of it and rest."

Harry made a little sound of agreement, but didn't say anything.

Severus chuckled. "You're already falling asleep, aren't you?"

Harry just made the same sound and snuggled deeper into the arms of his lover.

"Sweet dreams, Harry," Severus pressed a kiss to the lightning bolt scar.

***

"I guess Harry's not coming to class today," Ron sighed. "I hope he's alright."

"Me too, Ron," Hermione answered

***

At lunch, Draco sat down with the two Gryffindors.

"Where's Harry?"

"We don't know. He hasn't been to any of our classes," Ron told the blonde.

"What ever McGonagall wanted him for, it must have done something to Harry."

"I'll go look for him," Draco stood up.

***

Draco shook his head as he saw his godfather and best friend lying asleep in his bed.

"They'd better not have done anything in that bed," he muttered. He turned around and left the bedroom. He placed a spell on the door so that only he could go in. It wouldn't do to have Ron or Hermione, or anybody else, find out about Harry and Severus. When he turned away from the door, he yelped. Remus was standing extremely close with a large grin on his face.

"Merlin! Don't do that again!" Draco whisper-yelled.

"Sorry. Did they fall asleep?"

"Yeah, they're asleep. Do you know why he was called to the Headmaster's office?" Draco asked the werewolf as they sat down.

Remus sighed. "Fudge and two Aurors showed up this morning. With Vernon Dursley."

Draco gasped. "They didn't le Harry see him, did they?"

"They did," Remus shook his head.

"No!" Draco growled. "Those idiots!"

Remus curled his lip up in agreement. "Severus was in the office with us too. He must have used every last nerve of his not to kill Dursley."

"He should have killed the bastard," Draco growled.

"I know. Sirius wanted me too," Remus said. "Speaking of Siri, I had better get back. I told him I was going to the library-" here Remus grinned. "That's why he didn't come with me; he hates the library."

Draco sniggered slightly.

***

"Did you find Harry?" Hermione asked the blonde as he resumed his spot at the Gryffindor table.

"Yeah. He's sleeping. Apparently, that idiot of a Minister brought Dursley here and Harry had to see him!" his voice started out quiet, but as Draco went on, he got louder.

"That moron!" Ron shouted. Half the Great Hall turned to look at the fiery red head.

"Why would he do that to Harry?" Hermione asked.

"Because, I think he's a Voldemort kiss-ass," Draco scowled.

"Great," Ron said sarcastically.

"Dumbledore called back the order, they should know about Fudge," Hermione whispered.

"Wait, do you mean we should tell them, or that they should already know?" Draco looked confused.

'Wait, what?" Ron asked Hermione rolled her eyes.

"It doesn't matter. We should tell them and see if they don't already know about it. If they do know, then they'll know if he's a Death Eater."

"I'm confused, so I'm just going to block you out," Draco grinned as she scowled at him.

***

Severus seemed to have this perfect sense of time. You had to, to be a Potions Master; you couldn't keep looking at a clock all the time for your potions. This is why he woke up exactly thirty minutes before his first afternoon class.

Smiling down at his small lover, Severus tried to get off the bed with as little disturbance to Harry as possible. The sleeping teenager mumbled something and snuggled into the spot where Severus had been. Severus kissed his lips once before he left Draco's room

***

The next Friday, Harry and Draco made another bet. Harry had lost the last one the week before, and had to wear makeup to Hogsmeade. You see, Harry had bet that Ravenclaw would lose to Slytherin in the Quidditch match. And Slytherin had lost. So, his forfeit had been wearing makeup to Hogsmeade.

This time, Harry bet Draco that Ravenclaw would win against Hufflepuff. If he won, Draco would have to wear a frilly, pink tutu to classes and meals the next week. Draco had been confident that Hufflepuff would win; Justin Finch-Fletchly was almost as good a seeker as Harry was. But as luck would have it, Cho Chang's replacement, Lila Johansson, caught the snitch about a minute into the game and won Ravenclaw the match.

After the game, Draco delivered a good kick to Justin's shin and stomped off to his room.

***

Everyone looked up as Draco came into Double Potions five minutes late, wearing a pink tutu over his robe. The Gryffindors and Slytherins alike had laughed at the blonde. He scowled at them and plopped himself next to Harry.

"Lose a bet, Mr. Malfoy?" Severus asked with an eyebrow raised.

Draco crossed his arms in a huff and glowered at anything that moved.
