----------------------------------------

G - The Look

---

Severus stood on the stone battlements, Harry standing next to him. The spring sun was rising slowly. Severus glanced down at Harry, wondering if the young man understood what could happen. Harry looked up to meet Severus' eyes. Emotions, revealed through fatigue, ran through Harry's stare. Severus saw fear. Severus' normally unreadable gaze flickered with compassion. A breeze ran though their hair, drawing their attention to the dawning sun. It's innocent light filled the delicate hanging crystals with a searing white light before bursting out of it's confines and rushing through the heart of every dark soul within its range.

--------------------

PG - The Kiss

---

Everyone dark was killed, but Severus remained standing. Harry had tears running down his cheeks.

"Why are you crying?" Severus asked softly.

"I thought I was going to lose you." Harry answered, burying his face in his hands.

Severus hadn't known that Harry cared about him. He pulled the crying man towards him. Harry's teary eyes looked up at Severus before looking away. Severus tilted Harry's chin up so their eyes met. He leant down and pressed his lips to Harry's. The wind rustled forcefully through their clothes. Harry's lips parted to give Severus access to his tongue and mouth.

--------------------

R - The Desire

---

The wind rushed around them strongly as their kiss deepened. Severus and Harry kissed passionately and the fiercer their kiss grew, the fiercer the wind howled. Their hands clutched at each other and Severus pulled Harry close, Harry's arms encircling his neck. Their bodies crashed together, joined from lips to thighs in a tornado of heat amidst the strong wind. The wind blew warmer, though just as fierce, as their bodies became more aroused. Severus' hands trailed over Harry's waist and down over his firm, tight, arse, before coming back to rest his hands on Harry's waist and lower back.

--------------------

NC17 - The Passion

---

Harry glanced up at Severus and gave him a shy smile. Severus placed a soft kiss on Harry's lips. The storm battered against the windows. Severus thrust into Harry, watching Harry's innocent face. After all the man had been through he could still retain his pure innocence and Severus felt like he was innocent too, just by being in Harry. The storm reached it's peak and fell with a last crash of thunder and strike of lightening. The lovers collapsed and lay in each other's arms, watching the pure snowfall outside the bedroom window, cleansing the land of the storm.
