Walk away and I stumble
Chapter five
Harry was now six weeks into his pregnancy and as it was his first he wasn't actually showing, he had asked Madame Pomfrey about this and she had explained to him that his stomach muscles were tight and he wouldn't show for a little while but time was running out.
He still hadn't told Severus.
On the plus side the desk had arrived, only yesterday he and Severus had got into an interesting situation with a pair of handcuffs and the desk, something he was sure that he couldn't repeat again even if he had wanted to do so.
By next week however Harry was sure that he would start to show, his stomach may not have been showing but his stomach muscles were not as defined as they usually were, he was fortunate that Severus hadn't noticed as of yet.
Harry however had a plan, since he was still pretty much sex mad he was going to seduce the older wizard into bed as per-usual and then tell him while they sat sated in the aftermath.
It was a pretty good plan if Harry did say so himself, he wasn't sure how Severus was going to react to this, he was getting on in years, Harry didn't mind this so much but having children at his age wasn't exactly the norm.
It was while Severus was teaching that Harry was lounging in the bath caressing his belly thinking of the life growing inside of him. He did not of yet know the gender of his baby but he wasn't sure that he wanted to until the birth.
He closed his eyes and let his mind wander, usually when he did this he thought of crazy, passionate naked monkey sex but now he tried to imagine what his boyfriend's reaction would be. At first he imagined Severus getting mad and chucking him out and then him breaking down into tears and proposing marriage.
He hoped it wasn't either of those, he didn't want Severus to propose just because of the baby, in fact he didn't want him to propose at all, Harry didn't think that he was ready for quite a big step, certainly not the high level of commitment.
Although when he thought about it the baby in itself was a pretty big step for them both but he knew that he wanted to keep it, there was no doubt about that. The pregnancy may have been a bit of a shock but he did want it.
In about an hour Harry had his fortnightly appointment with Poppy who was eager to see him and do an ultrasound to see how the baby was developing; Harry was equally as excited about this.
He even had a date with Severus in the forbidden forest after lunch for sensual, sweaty, sweet, salacious, scornful, slutty snaky sex after which they were going to head back to their room ad put the desk to good use again in what Harry called large, luscious, lip-smacking, lovely lion sex.
These were two totally different styles to just the normal crazy naked monkey sex but each was just as enjoyable as the other. It was certainly better than remarkable, unreal, ripe, ravenous, randy Ravenclaw sex. But at least that was better than high-quality, heinous, heroic Hufflepuff sex.
An hour later found Harry skipping up to the infirmary, the little trips he had managed to conceal from Severus he didn't know how. The infirmary fortunately was empty when he arrived and thankfully Poppy was able to see him right away.
The blank screen appeared before a cool potion was poured over his stomach, Poppy's wand then touched his stomach and the screen came to life.
"Oh" Harry said in awe as he saw his baby that was growing inside of him, he could make out the head and the little arms and legs that had begun to form from the buds that they had been since the last time Harry had seen the baby. "Wow" He concluded, Poppy couldn't help but smile at him as she continued to show the proud mother his child.
"Your child is developing perfectly and right on schedule it would seem, it has a fluttering heartbeat and is perfectly healthy for a child at this stage." She said happily removing her wand from Harry's stomach and vanishing the gel like potion from his stomach. "Although I must warn you Harry that magical baby's especially children from two wizarding parents are prone to performing magic from the womb."
"Is that good or bad?"
"It can be both, the more magic that the baby uses the more tired you will become, also you may have to explain to Severus odd occurrences since you haven't told him as of yet but on the plus side the baby will use magic to protect itself and it's mother from anything that will cause either of you harm."
"Harm as in?"
"I once had a case when the baby would go so far as to protect itself from anything too hot or even too cold from touching the stomach of the mother, pretty much anything that doesn't say 'I love you' to your stomach."
"Well" Harry said chuckling, "I'll have to be careful then, I was actually thinking about telling Severus after the Order meeting tonight, or maybe after our for sensual, sweaty, sweet, salacious, scornful, slutty snaky sex in the forbidden forest."
"Now that Harry was a little too much information than I needed to hear."
"Sorry, want to hear what we're going to do when we get back?"
"Not really but you have intrigued me so do continue to tell me."
"Large, luscious, lip-smacking, lovely lion sex."
"I once did that myself, I did prefer remarkable, unreal, ripe, ravenous, randy Ravenclaw sex personally, that was my house you know."
"I never knew that, I tried that once myself once as well, didn't find it to my liking."
After this very strange conversation that neither would ever admit to having (well maybe Harry would) Harry was on his way, it was just about lunch time so he skipped all the way down to Severus' dungeon classroom and patiently waited outside.
He was rewarded a minute or so later by the bell ringing and the fourth year class filing out, when they spotted him standing there whispers broke out, ignoring them the Gryffindor slipped past them and into the classroom closing the door behind him.
"Hey there lover" Harry said approaching Severus' desk where the older man sat skim reading over some essays that Harry presumed had just been handed in.
"You know, these seem to become worse each year, it's astounding really."
Not satisfied with this greeting Harry sat himself down in Severus lap and began to nibble at his lovers earlobe, which did exactly what the Gryffindor wanted it to, distracting the potions professor from his work and making him slightly turned on.
"You know I think my greeting was a little better than yours, could you at least pretend to be happy to see me?" Harry said pouting.
"I'm sorry," Severus said returning the kiss that Harry had given him, "Forgive me?"
"Always, but you now owe me sex in the forbidden forest while everyone is at lunch and then more sex in our rooms this afternoon as you don't have class to teach."
"I did promise didn't I?"
"Yep, so are you ready?"
Severus nodded and together they headed up and out and fortunately didn't meet anyone along the way, anyone like the headmaster who would no doubt dislike the idea of Harry and Severus having for sensual, sweaty, sweet, salacious, scornful, slutty snaky sex in the forbidden forest.
Severus was leading the way; apparently he knew the perfect place for snaky sex in the forbidden forest, it made Harry wonder whether or not he had done this before. When Harry voice this thought it made Severus laugh, the younger wizard had always loved the potion professors laugh.
"Actually I have done this once before" But then seeing Harry's hurt look at this not being the first adventurous outdoor sex he had had Snape continued. "It was before you were born, I had just figured out that I preferred to sleep with men. I couldn't exactly sleep with men in the Slytherin dormitory, so Lucius who was a year younger than myself agreed to come out here, he was experimenting and from that day he was bisexual."
"Well, you're enough to turn any man gay." Harry said as they followed a small dirt path through the undergrowth.
Where they ended up surprised Harry, he had never seen anything like this in the forest before now. There was a small clearing in which a large oak with a thick tree trunk stood, from one of the sturdier branches hung a double swing and up on one of the higher branches was what looked like a roomy tree house.
"You found this?"
"Oh yes, I used to come here often in my school days but since I began teaching I had little reason to visit here." This was not the sort of place that Harry had expected Severus Snape, feared potion master of Hogwarts and God of sex to know about.
"It's beautiful but it is missing one thing,"
"And what would that be?"
"I'll show you" Harry withdrew his wand and muttered a spell in parceltongue at which point the ground seemed to rupture and form a small pile of rock, then with a second muttered spell, this time in some sort of old Celtic language a small fountain started to trickle from the rock and a pond appeared at the base.
"Since when have you been able to conjure the elements Harry?" Severus asked an intrigued eyebrow raised.
"I've been studying" Harry responded vaguely.
Soon it didn't really matter about Harry's surprising new talents as they were up in the tree house, very much naked as the day they were born pleasuring each other.
Erections rubbing against each other, moans of pure ecstasy the only sound that managed to escape their lips as both Harry and Severus gave each other the best sex that they had ever had.
As they lay sated and happy in conjured sheets of satin and velvet, Severus running long, slim fingers over Harry's chest and stomach that he noticed the usually defined chest muscles that his young lover had possessed were now nowhere in sight.
"I think you've been studying a little much" Severus said, Harry's mess of ebony hair tickling his neck and chin.
"What do you mean?"
"I know I'm not in the best physical condition but you always seemed to keep on top of your exercise, especially quidditch."
"It's my stomach bug, I haven't had time but don't worry I'll start again soon, I don't like feeling fat." Harry lied smoothly, he didn't enjoy lying to Severus but he wasn't about to tell him here no matter how perfect it was.
"You are by no means fat." Severus replied as he kissed Harry's forehead.
Thinking fast Harry changed the subject, "So come on up and clothes"
"Why on earth would I want to do that?"
"Because we're not done and it's getting a little too cold to stay here sensual, sweaty, sweet, salacious, scornful, slutty snaky sex may be done outside but Large, luscious, lip-smacking, lovely lion sex is best done inside with a desk and handcuffs."
"True maybe we could think of another type of sex that we could do outdoors before we go in." Severus suggested.
"Okay how about…"
"I was more thinking sex first, name later."
Harry laughed but that sweet sound was soon cut out by Severus as he claimed Harry's lips with a kiss while his talented fingers caressed Harry into erection.
By the time they managed to return to the castle it was near dinner time and within hours the Order meeting would commence, a few of the members had gathered for dinner already. Tonks meet them in the entrance hall, one look over their ruffled appearance and miss buttoned clothing told her exactly what they had been doing.
She had to bite back a laugh when she saw Severus in this state, he was usually so perfect, even his skin did not go unblemished as Harry had given him a love bite that had gone an interesting shade of maroon right on his neck for everyone to see. She could safely say that he had not of yet seen it otherwise he would have concealed it with magic by now.
"Evening Harry, Severus, how are you this fine evening?" She asked suppressing her grin, Harry noticed and smiled, taking the potion professor's hand within his own.
"We're great thank you, it's been a while Tonks how are you?" Harry asked politely even though Severus was showing signs of wanting to get down to the dungeons where the desk awaited there arrival.
"Not bad, Remus sends his love"
"Will he not be coming tonight?"
"Full moon, he was so disappointed when he realised, but he promised to come and see you tomorrow if he could."
"That would be great, wouldn't it Sevvy"
Tonks bit back her giggling fit, "Yes" Snape said teeth gritted and tone low, "wonderful."
"Oh lighten up Sev, he's my godfather, you'll have fun I promise."
Severus shook his head in disbelief, as Tonks was about to speak again however he spoke again, "Harry and I have to go and prepare for the meeting tonight, we will resume this conversation then."
"He actually means that he wants to have large, luscious, lip-smacking, lovely lion sex with me so we'll talk later okay."
Tonks nodded, she was in fact speechless, Severus allowed Harry to wave goodbye before dragging him down into the dungeons. "Must you tell everyone?"
"It's so funny though, did you see the look on her face?"
"Yes, very amusing."
Two hours later and the Order members were all gathered in the great hall; Harry was sat in Severus' lap, arms around his waist possessively. They were receiving some very strange looks but the happy couple were just ignoring them all.
The headmaster then appeared, there was an undecipherable look upon his face but it didn't worry Harry who was far too content to just sit where he was, in the warm embrace of his lover.
"Voldemort is back" Albus began startling the witches and wizards surrounding him into silence, Harry winched. "However we also have our saviour back," Severus was about to comment when he saw that Harry was looking sadly at him, he knew that he couldn't say anything about Harry going, he didn't want to let Harry go but it wasn't exactly his choice.
"We have discovered his whereabouts only recently but it is fair to say that his target is the same" Dumbledore didn't have to explain what this target it was, that much was obvious.
Harry however had suddenly realised something and he was not afraid to voice these thoughts, in fact, he decided that he would. Dumbledore was prattling on about how Harry would go into battle and save the day, what the headmaster wasn't expecting wasn't for Harry to interrupt him.
"Sorry headmaster but you seemed to making a lot of plans that involve me and I haven't even agreed to re-join the war, I left for a reason Sir."
"Oh Harry, don't be silly, you have to fight, there is nothing you can do to change that, you've known that since the age of eleven."
"I think you should let Harry make his own choices Dumbledore, if he doesn't want to fight then he shouldn't have to fight." Severus said finally speaking up, he didn't want Harry to fight, he was too scared that he would lose him.
"Severus this does not involve you."
"It does involve him because he is my partner and besides he's just voicing my opinion Professor, besides I am in no condition to fight right now."
"Why, what's wrong, are you ill?" Dumbledore asked, even Severus was looking concerned now, Harry just smiled at his lover and placed a soft kiss upon his lips before standing to address the room.
"I have known for a couple of weeks now but I couldn't really think of the best way to tell everyone but since your all here I may as well do it here." Harry said, every eye in the great hall was upon him, waiting for an explanation. "I'm pregnant."
At these words Severus promptly fainted and Dumbledore started to have major chest pains.
