The Little Voices

"I'm not sure this is a good idea".

Hermione rolled her eyes as she dragged her reluctant friend deeper into the dungeons keeping an eye out for Prefects and Professors.

"Well if you hadn't rejected all my other ideas you wouldn't be doing this" the witch said.

"All of them had me cross-dressing and tied to either his bed or desk!"

Which we were fully in support of.

"I wasn't!" Harry protested.

Not our fault you're such a prune.

"Oh shut up" Harry grumbled.

"Here we are, you remember you're lines?" Hermione asked when they stopped in front of Snape's door.

"No" Harry answered looking all the sudden nervous and was clinging the present he had in hand tightly to his chest.

"Good"

Hermione then knocked on the door before quickly taking out the Invisibility Cloak and putting it on.

"Hermione wait—"

"Mr. Potter"

Harry squeaked and stared wide-eyed at his Professor, taking in the bare muscular chest and sleeping pants that hung dangerously low.

.Gah.

That's a lot of skin.

Harry nodded in agreement.

"And what do I owe for this unpleasant visit?"

"Um"

"You're speaking skills as usual, have much to be desired" Severus said dryly.

"Um" Harry said again, eyes glued to the man's chest, and he was pretty sure he was starting to drool.

You're not, but we are.

So much skin, quick! Touch it!

Harry raised one of his hands, only to have it lowered by Hermione's invisible hand, the brainy witch tensing when Severus's eyes swirled in her direction. She carefully took a step back just as the man made a grab in her direction. Narrowing his eyes, Severus turned his attention back to Harry who was still staring wide-eyed at the man.

"What do you want Potter?"

Oh the possibilities that comes with that question.

"Skin, no I mean uh stuff um—"

Rolling her eyes Hermione gave a swift kick to her stuttering friend's leg.

"Chocolate!" Harry blurted out, shoving said chocolate into the man's chest.

Severus instinctively took hold of the box, and stared down at it.

"…Chocolate?" the Potion Master finally said after moments of just staring down at the box.

"Yes, I made them for you" Harry answered, "as a…gift"

Then to Severus's amazement, the boy blushed before scurrying away.

Severus stared at the box of homemade chocolate he had placed on his coffee table, he had done every spell he could think of on them, and discovered they were just regular homemade chocolates.

White Chocolate to be exact.

His favorites.

"But how did Potter know?" Severus thought.

Cautiously, Severus picked up one and placed it in his mouth, the sound he made, made the man happy he was alone.

Merlin it was delicious.

Swallowing, Severus picked up another, then another and another until the whole box was emptied.

"He threw them away Hedwig"

No he didn't.

Stop being so negative, you'll get wrinkles.

Hedwig hooted in agreement with the voices from where she was nestled on Harry's pillow (and Harry still wasn't sure how he felt about his owl being able to hear the voices in his head).

"He probably thought it was a prank"

Can't argue with that.

Good point.

Harry sighed, groaning when the bell ranged signaling that he needed to get to class. With another sigh Harry gathered his things and made his way to Potions.

We should have went with Hermione's naughty school girl idea.
