A/N: I'm so sorry it took me so long to get this up. After my last update I got very busy with stuff for a convention and then the next week I was just taking a rest and this week I've gotten sick and am still pretty sick right now and have been writing on this thing for a couple of days now and finally finished it. I will also admit to reading a lot of other author's fics during my rest time after than con and my sick time. Thank you to all of those who have reviewed. I very much enjoyed seeing what you all thought

Breakfast had come and gone and Harry and Sev were walking around the Hogwarts grounds.
'I really am going to miss this,' Harry said
'These past months have been filled with the best moments of my life,' Sev told him.
'I have to agree, especially with all the shit I've been through over the years.'
'Judging by how my older self has turned out, it would seem I have quite a bit to go through over the next few decades myself.' Sev paused a moment. 'I can't say I'm looking forward to leaving, but it's something that has to happen.'
'I know,' Harry said vacantly.
'I suppose in the end I do at least have something to look forward to.'
'That being?'
'Seeing you again. Trying to make your younger life a living hell so you don't catch onto how much I really wish you would grow up faster so I wouldn't feel so bad about having dirty thoughts about you. Not that I know the me of this time ever had those kind of thoughts, but it seems like something I'd do.'
Harry started to get a disgusted look on his face
'Definitely not of you at that age of course, I mean the you right now,' Sev defended himself, or rather his future self.
Harry began to chuckle and Sev joined in.
They spent the rest of the morning and the first hour and a half of the afternoon just walking and talking, and on the occasion shoving one another up against a tree and ravishing each others mouths and necks.
As the hour of 2:00PM came closer and closer they began making their way to the lake near the spot where Sev had originally in his time gone into the lake after the light. Dumbledore was there waiting, watching a pocket watch.
'You've shown a bit early, which is good just in case an old man's calculations aren't precisely correct,' Dumbledore said to Sev.
They all waited in silence waiting for the light to appear. Every so slowly not too far into water, smaller portions of light began to swirl and slowly created one large beam in the water.
'I suppose that's my cue,' Sev stated. He began walking out into the water. As he came merely a foot away from the light, he heard another person slosh into the water not far behind him.
'Wait!' Harry yelled out.
Sev turned around and Harry sloshed through the water to him. He grabbed Harry around the waist and pulled him closer like his older self had merely days ago instructed he do, except that he did it more out of instinct than just playing along with what he'd been told to do. He kissed Harry passionately. As they broke apart he angled his head to whisper directly into Harry's ear. He remembered exactly what to say word for word.
'I love you and I will never stop loving you and am still incredibly in love with you up until this day. If you do love me the way you claim to I'll be sitting in my office waiting for you.' He kissed Harry again quickly, not knowing how much longer the portal was going to stay open. They broke apart and Sev began backing up towards the portal. 'I'll be seeing you.'
'I love you,' Harry said.
'I love you more,' Sev replied
'Don't even get me started,' Harry said as he watched Sev back up into the light. And with a splash the love of his life was gone.
Harry walked back to the bank and looked at Dumbledore.
The old man's eye held their familiar twinkle as they looked at Harry. 'What are you standing around for, my boy? It's rude to keep people waiting.'
Harry chuckled and blushed lightly. 'Yah, sorry. Excuse me, sir.' And with that Harry ran toward the castle. Through the entrance hall, to the dungeons, and all the way up to the door to the Potion Master's office.
He stood outside the door catching his breath. He gazed at crevices in the wood of the door in deep thought for about three minutes before he took a deep breath and knocked n the door.
'Enter,' the deep baritone voice spoke from inside.
Harry slowly entered the office to see Professor Snape sitting at his desk look as emotionless as ever. Harry walked up to the desk, and then around the side of it to where he was standing next to the older man.
Severus twisted his chair to face Harry. 'Is there something I can help you with Mr. Potter?'
'Yes. I believe there is.' Harry climbed onto Severus lap straddling the other man's legs, took his face in his hands and kissed his professor of seven years.
Severus quickly responded and Harry continued to deepen the kiss, sliding his tongue across Severus' bottom lip, begging for entrance, which was more than happily allowed. Tongues slowly mapped the mouth of the man opposite them, until oxygen was becoming a bit necessary. They slowly broke the kiss and Harry looked down into Severus' eyes.
'It would seem that some things don't change,' Harry said.
'How much do the things that have changed matter to you?'
'Not enough to keep me away,' Harry replied.
Severus smiled. Genuinely smiled, something he promised himself would be reserved only for Harry's eyes.
'I love you, Sev.'
'I love you more,' Severus replied.
Harry chuckled and whispered across Severus' lips 'Don't even get me started.'

A/N: Well, there it's over. My muse finally came back, but was fading in and out so if some parts are better than others that would be why. This isn't completely the end, as promised there will be an epilogue. I'm trying to figure out what kind of fic I'll write next. Maybe by the time I finish the epilogue I will have decided, because I've been playing around with a few plot ideas in my head and nothing's screamed absolute yet. We'll see what happens. Well, give that button down there a little clicky and let me know what you think.
