Chapter 2: Loneliness
Harry Potter was depressed.
Nothing could ever be easy for him, could it? He had had an evil psychopath after him since he was born, relatives who got their main thrills in life out of making him as miserable as possible, and two best friends who were so wrapped up in their new relationship that they didn't seem to care about him anymore. Oh, and he was gay. Not only was Harry gay, but he was in love with his evil, greasy Potions master.
Harry sighed as he looked out his window at Privet Drive. He knew he should tell Ron and Hermione that he was gay, but he didn't know how they'd react. He was fairly positive that Ron would flip out on him, but he wasn't sure about Hermione. She seemed more likely of the two to understand, but that didn't mean that she would be supportive.
Hey guys; I'm in love with Snape. How was your summer? Oh yeah, that'll go over well, thought Harry miserably.
Not that there was any point in telling them that he was in love with Snape even if he did plan on telling them that he was gay. Snape would never love him back, of that Harry was sure. The Potions master was so intelligent, so sarcastic, so beautiful, that Harry knew he didn't have a chance.
Harry moved away from the window and started to pull his pajamas on. So what if Snape would never love him? Harry didn't need Snape. He would forget all about the older man, and find someone who could love him. After all, there were over six billion people on the planet. One of them had to think he was worth something.
Right?
A/n: I know this was short; that's why I posted the first two chapters at the same time. These first two chapters aren't really chapters; they're more like two prologues used to show the audience Harry's and Sev's feelings going into the start of term. The chapters should be longer in the future.
