A Father's Love

Chapter 16: Two Weeks in August

Same Lake, Different Day

Harry and Draco sat by the lake and watched the sun set before heading back into the castle. The two were greeted by none other then Ronald Weasley. Ron's back was turned to the door and he wore baggy muggle jeans and a navy t-shirt. His hair was interrupted by a navy headband.

"I am ninja… and you my student… fear no evil." Ron then turned and faced them. "So what do you think?"

Draco and Harry were both trying there hardest not to laugh out loud uncontrollably. Finally Harry managed to speak. "Ron what are you doing?"

"Being Ninja… fear no evil?"

"Okay… and an explanation would be nice… "

"I stayed with Fred and George for a month and they bought me a couple outfits from some muggle stores… did you ever here of Wal-Mart? And they showed me some Muggle DVD's the bargain bin is full of funny stuff… they had this one that was about some Ninja's and it was really funny because some people had taken it and redone the voices… so they weren't saying what they really were saying.. it was funny and it was about ninja's hey did I even say 'Hi' yet I don't think I have and Draco has on a very cool looking ring and wow I am so glad to see you guys so how's it going?"

Draco looked dumbstruck… "I will never let Harry ask you for an explanation ever again. Ever. Never Ever. Ever."

"I caught most of it…" Harry admitted.

"All I caught was 'I' and 'going'… I swear. Never. Ever."

"Hey that's okay… I also found out about some pretty cool bands… none of that weird sister stuff for me anymore… my favorites are Evanescence and Jimmy Eat World. I'm hungry. Are you guys hungry I think we should go eat…"

"Ever." Draco interrupted Ron's next rant. The three boys went to the Great Hall and had a sit down dinner with a few of the staff members. Most were in the hospital wing.

Half way through the meal Harry got curious. "Hey Ron, why are you here so early? I mean it's cool and all but we still have two weeks before the beginning of term. So what's the deal?"

"Ohh that well you see…"

"No no no…" Draco interrupted again. "See if you can do this in ten words or less…"

"Dumbledore asked me to come early because he wants us to start doing some extra training together and he said he was going to approach you two about it before I got here but I guess he didn't so anyways it's cool though right I mean like two weeks practically to ourselves before term!"

"Just so you know that was fifty four words…" Draco laughed.

"Yeah well I can't help it! So what's been up with you guys this summer?"

"Well before we get started on that lets go down to our room where we can get more comfortable." Harry stated quickly getting up. Draco moved quickly next to him slipping his arm around Harry's waist.

"More comfortable with the public display of affection I see…" Ron smirked following them down to the dungeons.

Harry summoned a couch and a couple of chairs to choose from. Harry and Draco sat down on the couch with Harry leaning in to Draco for comfort and just to be held. Ron draped himself over a chair. "So what have you been doing without me all summer?"

"Well I kind of asked Draco to marry me…" Harry said almost shyly.

"I said yes." Draco finished for him.

"THAT'S BLOODY BRILLIANT!" HE was so excited that he jumped out of the chair before sitting back down… "I am so planning the bachelor parties! There is nothing you can do to stop me either! NAAAAHHH! So cool so cool so very very awesomely cool. Congratulations!"

"I was going to owl you but it's been a madhouse…" Harry then went on to explain the rest of summer to the excited redhead.

Infirmary

Severus Snape was now able to get up and walk around and do some exercises but he was recovering from a small stroke due to the malnutrition that led to his fall. He was eating but had yet to see Harry or Draco for the past month. Remus was with him every day except days of transformations. Severus was getting lonely and wished that he had the energy to make the potion to fix what was wrong with him, but he didn't. He also wasn't telling anyone the password to his private stores and lab.

"Remus…" He spoke softly from the bed.

"Yes?" The husky voice asked.

"Why are they avoiding me?"

"Because he's hurt and is still a young man who doesn't realize how much it's hurting you."

"But what about Draco?"

"He's Harry's lover. You could expect no different behavior from him, he's only trying to comfort Harry in a way only he can."

"I want to see them. They both need to know how much I love them."

"Just concentrating on getting better. I'm sure Harry and Draco will come see you soon."

"Do you really think so?"

"Yes."

A few days later Harry entered the grand hall after being attacked my Minerva she was one of the toughest witches to fight because of her ability to transform. Ron and Draco were headed out the front door.

"Hey guys, wait up!"

Ron responded. "Sorry Harry. We wish to have this romantic tryst to ourselves this time. No threesome tonight. Goodbye!" He had managed to wrap his leg around the front of Draco who looked positively green. "Come Draco my love away to the bridal suite! And away we go!" Ron was positively hyped up on some sort of energy but Harry couldn't place it.

"I love you!" Draco managed to get in before Ron pulled him the rest of the way.

'Love you too' Harry thought.

Harry began walking randomly before he ended up at the door to his father's dungeon chambers. It would be no use, no one was in there at the moment but Harry spoke the password and entered. It was cold and let go like any other day during the summer when it was vacant. Harry found his way to the bedchamber and began looking around. There wasn't anything to see, the closet had a few school only robes… and the bed had it's own sheets but it was void of personal effects. They would all be shrunk somewhere in some pocket of some such robe or another. So Harry went looking for them. He moved back into the living room in the corner where the Christmas tree would be in a few months he saw a single wizards trunk. No locks or closing spells it was just a small box to carry things in. It looked like it had been shrunk also. Harry did the reverse spell and it expanded to the size of a trunk. In it were yet again smaller boxes labeled with different rooms. He picked up the bedroom one and resized it. When he opened it he began the tack of resizing each object. He resized a photo taken third year at Christmas of the three boys posing in their new Weasley sweaters. He found several framed pictures that were various shots of Harry, Remus, and Draco and every now and again Ron in a group. Then he came upon one of Sev and Remy. Harry got very angry again. He threw the picture at the wall and the glass shattered. Then he threw all of the pictures one by one against the wall and began crying.

Harry forgetting to reset anything or even care ran from the room abandoning his search. Harry ran into someone and they both stumbled and fell. Harry wouldn't have looked up but he heard the deep voice of his father.

"Harry? Is everything all right? What's the matter?" Sev had been wondering outside the Infirmary when Harry came running and plowed into him.

"I'm fine. I'll help you up." Harry stated the tears still staining his cheeks. He wiped away at them with his sleeve but his eyes were still red and puffy. He was a gentle young man even with the man that who had tried to kill himself. Severus had regained much strength but it had still been a nasty spill. "Dad, there is something I would like to do if you would let me."

"Alright Harry." Severus agreed. Harry put his hands on his father one on his head and the other on his torso. The green light surrounded the two people, the green light got so dark and both bodies were sinking to the floor. Sev's screams were not audible to anyone but Harry and Harry's screams were just as loud. The amazing pain both men felt was unlike the one felt when any of the physical healing done before. Harry had just meant to clean up the effects of the stroke but he felt as he were getting more then that and he couldn't let go. Severus was clawing into Harry's arms to try to make the pain stop but like Harry he couldn't stop the pain even with the amazing amount of power he did have. The light suddenly disappeared and Harry and Severus were flung away from one another. Harry landed on the other side of the infirmary landing hard on the stone floor. His arms were still showing the faint aura of green as the fingerprints left by his father healed rapidly. Harry was quick to regain his breath and move out of the infirmary.

Again running he collapsed into the room Draco would be returning to. He had managed not to pass out and not to break down in the hall but it was all he could do not to cry again. Harry instead got angry and began throwing things against the walls and smashing them with his fist. He pounded on the stonewall and when he broke the bones in his hand and they healed he broke them again. He wished for once something would stay broken so he would have a reason to be so upset. But then again was it not enough his father had nearly killed himself and there was a mad wizard after him who had killed his mother fifteen years before. No, it wasn't enough. Harry felt he needed a better reason, a better reason to feel like shit when he should be perfectly happy. His father was alive, he knew he could beat Old Voldie and he had a loving boyfriend who had been one of the best things to happen to him since his Uncle had beat him when he was too young to understand adult fear.

Harry still was angry, angry about being so weak when he was and angry the good things he tried to do caused so much pain. Harry briefly contemplated killing Remus but he knew it would do no good in the end and he didn't have the heart to kill the man Draco thought of as a father. Harry's head began pounding as if it were trying to escape from his skull and Harry passed out.

In the Infirmary

Severus looked up as the boy ran out of the room. "What just happened? Harry? Please come back… I don't know what just happened." But Sev's voice was very quiet. He could barely whisper because he was so scared. Severus moved to a bed and wrapped himself in one of the blankets and sat there trying to remember why Harry had fled in such a hurry. Remus came in to check on him perhaps twenty minutes after Harry had left. Remus noticed right away from the expression on Sev's face that something had happened. "Remus, I don't know what happened. Harry was here and then he ran out… but I don't remember what happened between then. Help my Remus." Sev just sat on the bed still covered with the blanket.

"I'll go get Albus. Just stay here until I get back." Remus watched as Severus nodded.

Harry and Draco's rooms

Draco and Ron entered the room to find Harry pacing and muttering to himself. "Harry? You alright mate?" Ron asked him.

"Arthur! Your child has once again interrupted my class. Would you kindly tell Bill that he is expected to behave in class!" Harry bellowed. "Lucius you get your dirty paws away from me. Go fuck Narcissa if you must but get he hell away from me!"

"Harry, calm down." Draco stated.

"No! I will not join you! I refuse to serve a man so blinded by power that he will use up our lives and use it to kill us all!" Harry continued yelling at the two other sixteen year olds.

"Harry stop this at once!" Draco commanded because he didn't know what was going on.

"I will take him away from you. You and your Slytherin pride. The hat placed him in Gryffindor, so that's where he belongs. I'm not happy about it either but you just need to calm down. I know what you do to that boy. You beat him and rape him. And the things you let Narci do to him. You are one of the worst wizards to walk this earth and Draco will never be yours again!"

"We need to get him some help." Ron whispered to Draco. Draco nodded but Harry's wand was out. Ron noticed this too. The two boys decided it would be best if they distracted him with not talking at all and seeing if they could wrestle him to the ground. Ron leapt at him, but Harry turned around and petrified him before Draco managed to get a good hold on Harry.

"Get off of me you rapist!" Harry screamed as loud as he could. "Lucius you will pay for this!" Ron was returned to normal by Draco who managed to lose his wand to the flailing Harry. Ron stupefied Harry and then the boys called down a stretcher. Harry was levitated up to the infirmary where Sev was still under the blanket while Albus and Remus were discussing what to do. Poppy was getting some much needed sleep when the three boys entered.

"What's going on?" Albus asked of the young men.

"See for yourself." Draco said before releasing Harry from the spell.

"Albus I don't know how to do this. I hate sitting on my hands while Harry is with his overgrown family and I can't see him." Harry said immediately. "I don't know what I would do if it weren't for you and all of your help. I hate the fact that Lucius managed to talk me into becoming a deatheater, even if it was to become a spy." Albus stupefied the young man again and he fell silent.

"It seams Harry has a number of Sev's memories. I've seen this before, however not quiet so much. Tell me has he said things to you also?"

"Yes, he thinks we are our biological fathers."

"I see I see. Well Harry is acting as a human pensive… but there is a difference, Severus can no longer retain even small details of the memories that Harry has now discovered. I imagine if we look hard enough at Severus we will find that he too has some of Harry's memories."

"But how did this happen?" Draco's concerned voice rose up in question.

"Ahh well I guess it's time to explain something. Harry as far as any of us can figure is a Bohemian Healer. That means among other things and as the name implies he can heal people. It was first demonstrated when he first came to Hogwarts by removing Severus's dark mark. He gets a dark green aura whenever he uses his powers. This is also how he managed to kill Lucius."

"So wait wait wait… not that I don't love and adore Harry no matter what but your telling me this power of his can get all out of hand and he can just up and kill somebody?" Ron asked very confused.

"No, Lucius was killing Harry and Harry's powers took over and somehow managed to kill Lucius. It wasn't just because he wanted to. I believe in that instant it was either his life or the life of Lucius and the powers took over and saved Harry. Tell me has anyone noticed any cuts or bruises on Harry?" There were various murmurs of no and then Draco began thinking about himself… sometimes when Harry touched a bruise it would sting but then it would be gone… the same was true with cuts but Draco had never noticed a green aura.

"No, he doesn't have any cuts or bruises and neither do I, when we both should." Draco finally spoke up. He's also a parselmouth. The portrait on our ceiling… it hisses normally but the dragon spoke to us the one day and said something weird… so I mentioned it and then Harry started talking about what the snake was saying. That's when I found out. It slipped my mind till now; it wasn't the most impressive thing of the day. And no I don't want to give you any more details." Draco stated firmly.

"This is fixed easily enough." Poppy said after Draco was finished. She placed a spell on both Harry and Severus both men were unconscious for an hour or so and when they woke they were back to themselves if not a little embarrassed about what they had seen of each other's world. Neither thought they would ever be able to look at the other's lover quiet the same again. For less then an hour there most extreme memories had been switched. They had even come to a silent agreement that Harry would not do that to anyone ever again.

Ron however was concerned about Draco. "Hey Draco, did what Harry say… was it true?"

"Which part? I mean about the beating yes, that happened, what my mother did to me yes that happened. Did he ever abuse Sev? That I don't know, you would have to ask him."

"What about… what about the rape Draco, did he ever rape you?" Ron watched as Draco's features became more set I place and he refused to look at the red haired young man.

"Yes, he did. He started when I was five or six. He continued until Severus took the 'appropriate actions to ascertain my guardianship'. Not that I'm not grateful but I didn't think he knew… I didn't want anyone to know. Lucius was sick, how else could you explain getting your rocks off on your son's minuscule body? He was sick and that's all there is too it. Remus is my dad now, that way it doesn't seem so much like Harry and I are brothers… but Sev is my godfather, it just wouldn't work to have him as my dad."

"I'm sorry about what happened to you Draco."

"That's alright. Harry killed him anyhow remember. He can't ever hurt me again."

"We should probably get some rest. Term starts in a few days, I think Remus is taking us to Diagon Alley tomorrow."

"Yeah. Thanks, for helping me today. And for just being a good friend." Droca managed to meet Ron's eye again.

"Hey now don't get all mushy and girly on me." Ron mocked and play punched Draco on the arm.
