Harry was locked in his room again he rubbed his writs trying to sooth the rope burns. You see ever since Harry's encounter with Voldemort he has been cursed with not only people having an urge to tickle him but to also have sex with him. This has caused him many problems in his life as his uncle decided it would be turned into his personal play toy.

It was not as bad as it is now, he would simply sneak into the room he was given after Dumbledore paid a visit one day and made sure to have him moved from under the stairs to the room. But now he ties his wrists to the kitchen table as him and his cousin take turns with him. Before his aunt would tag in after they had their fun and simply start tickling him until he passed out from not being able to breath.

What Harry could not understand was that the strange thing about Dumbledore is that he is one of the two people who are not affected by the curse. The other was Professor Snape he never tried anything. It was weird to him as he tried to get close to Snape as he could trying to see if maybe he had to stand closer to him to have to effects happen.

But nothing happened except for the embarrassment of Snape looking at him with a glare before walking away from him. After that day Harry would run to his room whenever a student or teacher would get a little…handsy with him. Snape would yell at him at first but once after many embarrassing tries finally informed Snape of why he was now in his classroom hiding.

At first Snape would through him out not believing him but after he caught Draco pinning him to the floor trying to undo his pants. He realized the crying boy was not laying and in fact was in desperate need of protection. So, with a conversation with Dumbledore Harry was moved from dorm of hell to a private room that was next to Snape's.

They would have dinner together and it was always silent neither would talk but both found it nice to be able to not have to pretend to be somebody they are not. Harry smiled at the memories until he heard a bang on his door ripping him from of his mind. He turned to the door breathing heavily as he waited to see what the person wanted. It was his aunt and she sounded furious with Harry once again for something he could never control.

"HARRY HURRY UP AND GET YOUR THINGS WE ARE LEAVING FOR THE TRAIN SOON."

"Y-yes aunt Petunia I will be out soon."

Harry quickly put a jacket on to hide the red marks before grabbing his luggage and running out the door to get to the car. Harry had just opened the door when he came face to face with Snape himself. Harry was confused by this and was about to ask why he was there, but Snape grabbed his around the waist pulling him close against his body. Harry gasped as he let of his luggage shocked by the sudden action.

Harry looked at Snape with a confused and shocked face, but he quickly went white when he heard the screams from his aunt coming from downstairs. Snape snarled before he apparated them away to a place he knew no one not even Dumbledore could find them. He had to wait for Harry to turn 18 and the second he did he was there to pluck the boy from that nightmare of that place to take him somewhere safe from everyone.

When they got to their destination Snape went to let go of Harry until he felt the boy start to fall. He quickly tightened his hold on the boy and waited for him to get his strength back. When he did Harry nodded his head and stepped back from the older man and looked around his new surroundings becoming more confused as all he saw were woods and a small cabin. Harry frowned his brows as he looked back at Snape.

"Where are we?"

"We are in the last place anyone will find us...also the last place me and your mother went to get away from your aunt."

"W-What why would you and my mom come here?"

"Me and your mom have…had a long history together listen let's go inside okay."

"NO! HOW DID YOU KNOW MY MOM AND WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FAMILY?"

"Do not yell at me boy I risked everything saving your ass now get inside before I make you."

Harry backed away from Snape as he looked at him not with hardened eyes, he wanted answers. And he knew he was not going to get them if he did not push the man even if it meant having to disobey him. Harry knew he was being unreasonable, but he needed his questions answered.

"Sir, I am sorry for yelling I just want my answers please tell me even if it is hard I need…I need to know about my parents besides from what everyone thinks I need to know."

Snape looked at Harry he saw that same look before that same determined look he saw in the boys mother. The girl he thought he loved when really all it was showing him was that he cared for the girl as a close friend. No if he was being truthful this boy is the one, he loved ever since he first saw him. He kept his distance not wanting to push his feelings onto the boy but when he came to him his heart soared to the point, he thought the boy would be his downfall.

He was confused by why he felt this way for him so quickly even with his mother it took some time. But with Harry it took a second that is when he did some research and found that he was Harrys mate. He let Harry freely wander the halls, but he made sure no one would be able to touch his mate anymore. He placed a spell over the boy that would allow him to be safe, but it came at a cost.

That cost was seeming little compared to Harry's safety but now with having to go into hiding. He was not sure if that cost was worth it anymore. You see once Snape realized that Harry could be safe with a certain spell then not matter what he had to do he would to save him. He could not lose Harry too Lilly was bad enough but if he lost the boy he does not know or want to think what he would do or if he would even be able to come back from that one.

"Let's get inside and after we are settled in, I will explain everything but please allow us to go inside first."

Harry after some time nodded his head as he turned towards the cabin and walked slowly towards the cabin. He stiffened but slowly relaxed as he felt Snape place a hand on his midback not necessarily pushing him faster but giving him a slight push to the cabin. He still did not like people touching him, but Harry always felt safe when he had the older man near him or even the slightest touch.

When they finally reached the front door it automatically opened for the two of them. Harry hesitated for a second before stepping inside completely only to become instantly amazed with the inside. Harry smiled as he walked over to the couch and saw his blanket and cup of coffee waiting for him. He took his shoes off as he grabbed the blanket and sitting in the seat. As he was placing the blanket over him, he felt the seat next to him dip as the older man took the empty seat next to him before pulling Harry into him. Harry put his head on Snapes shoulder as he waited for him to speak to explain what is going on. Snape took one big breath before tightening his hold on the boy as he was about to open some old wounds and new ones that he was not too sure he was ready for.

"Y-you remember that memory you saw of me and your mother as children?"

"Yea I remember but what does that have to do with this cabin?"

"Your mother during the war wanted to make sure if something happened to her and your father that you would be able to go somewhere safe."

"But I went to my aunt and uncle...why would she want me to come here?"

"Dumbledore got to you before I could he left you parents bodies to me to take care of. But before I could convince him to give me you, he had already left."

"W- "

"let me finish…your mother knew about Dumbledore's plan to use you as bait to lure Voldemort out…But as time went on Voldemort's decisions changed. He wanted you for himself and Dumbledore saw that he was going to try and keep you not kill you. So, Dumbledore H-He released the protection barrier around your family's home to allow him to take you."

"W- "

"I said let me finish…Before Voldemort went to get you, I went to him. Telling him everything I gave up anything and everything to keep you safe. He was very mad but if I gave him Dumbledore then I could keep you safe. So, I made the deal Voldemort went and took care of that old man who knew everything that was happening to you and I was able to save you from both of them."

"Can I speak now?"

"Yes, what do need to say?"

"What happened to my family…yes, they were horrible, but they are the last family members I have."

"I did not kill them if that is what you are thinking I simply put them to sleep so I could grab you and quickly leave."

"I-sir I never thought you killed them I simply wanted to know what happened…thank you for telling me that you put them to sleep."

"Yes, well I also wiped their minds that way they forgot about you. When they wake up it will just be them and you will be a forgot memory."

"Ha… I would love to see their confused faces as they each woke up wondering why they fell asleep on the floor."

"Yes, well sorry to disappoint you there but I had to get you out of there before Voldemort came looking for you."

"I understand but now what do we do?"

"Well we live here until we can come up with a plan to take that man down…or we can simply live here and forget about the war and just live in peace…Together."

"W…We could really live here in peace with a war going on?"

"Remember when I said this is a place no one will ever find us what I meant by that is. This is another dimension this is the place me and your mom escaped to. We could stay here for hours sometimes days…But when the war came, she felt it in her to carry on in the real world no matter what I said she would not take you guys here… I still don't know why she didn't."

"Would you be disappointed if I said I wanted to stay here?"

"No, never I would actually be happy, but can I ask why?"

"The real world is awful and it showed me a world which I wish to not live in ever again…It's not that I don't care about what happens to anyone who hasn't tried to touch me or tickle me. But I just do not want to go back ever."

"I understand Harry trust me I will not send you back there if you wish to not go back. We can stay here for however long you want."

"Thank you, sir."

"Severus."

"what?"

"My name is Severus please call me by my first name since it will just be us."

"O-okay but then the same goes for you call me Harry."

"Deal…I do have one last thing to tell you though and you cannot be mad at me for not telling you sooner and do not feel pressured to do anything about it."

"Okay, what is it."

"I did not know why at the beginning what we were, but I knew something was off with every time I would get this feeling. So, after some research I found out that I was your bond mate…Your dominate bond mate I never pushed you in anyway and I will n-."

Before Snape could finish his sentence, Harry had twisted himself until his lips were firmly against the older mans. Letting him know how much he really cared for him in every way he always thought it was one sided. But to hear that the man felt that same feeling as him could not hold himself back anymore. Snape relaxed after a few minutes and started to kiss the boy back while placing one hand in his hair and the other on his hip. Pulling the boy closer to him as much as he could. Snape licked Harry's bottom lip asking for permission.

Smiling as felt Harry slowly open his mouth for him quickly taking advantage of this pushed his tongue into the boys mouth exploring every inch. Before pulling away trying to catch his breath along with the boy. His ego exploded when he saw the state of the boy not only was he panting but his checks were also flushed, and his eyes were heavily lidded. Snape pulled the boy back into the kiss knowing he could get use to this new life with his with Harry by his side.
