A not so simple battle
Chapter 2
"Harry I will kill everything you hold dear'' It was the cold and raspy voice of Voldemort and Harry started to panic. He hadn't dreamed of Voldemort since the night that Sirius died. Suddenly whatever dream Harry was having took a turn for the worse.
The Department of Mysteries appeared again but what Harry saw was much worse. Malfoy had gotten a hold of Sirius and the other Death-Eaters had gotten the order members that were there and his friends.
"Come on Potter," Malfoy sneered, "You can have your precious friends, order, and even more importantly your dear godfather back. All you have to do is give me the prophecy and this will end.
"NO!" Harry cried out, "MALFOY YOU KNOW THAT THE PROPHECY WAS SMASHED. WHY TORTURE ME LIKE THIS! JUST SUMMON YOUR GOD-DAMNED MASTER AND HAVE HIM END THIS. I'LL GLADLY TRADE MY LIFE FOR THEM! PLEASE LEAVE THEM ALONE! GIVE THEM BACK! PLEASE I BEG YOU!" Harry sunk to his knees crying when he heard the soft voice of Remus,
"Harry wake up. Please wake up. This is only a dream please wake up."
"POTTER WAKE UP NOW! I THOUGHT I TAUGHT YOU TO FIGHT THESE DREAMS! YOU KNOW THE DARK LORD IS ONLY USING YOU! NOW WAKE UP YOU DAMN FOOL!" Harry knew the sneer all to well and thought out weakly as the scene faded slowly,
"Professor Snape?" Suddenly………
Harry gasped, feeling cold sweat trickling down his face when he realized he was on the floor of the kitchen at Grimwald Place. Remus seemed to be holding him with Snape kneeling to one side.
"What happened?" Harry weakly asked as Snape pulled a calming draught from his robes. Remus answered rather shakily,
"Harry I got you to the kitchen after your little break down upstairs. I had started making tea when I heard a crash and when I turned around you were on the floor. Snape walked in at the point of where I got over to you. He said he knew what was going on and he told me what to do. When he saw what I was doing wasn't working he decided to go in and get you to come out of this dream."
Harry turned slightly so he could look more directly at Snape and he said quietly,
"Thank you Professor Snape. I think I surely would of gone insane in there. I guess I should have tried harder in our Occlumency lessons when we had them." Snape seemed shocked but after a moment he replied,
"It is mostly my fault. I didn't teach you hard enough and I kept pushing you harder than I should have. But I am glad you are okay no matter how much I might hate you." With that Snape swept from the room and left Harry to be with Remus, the man Harry was falling madly in love with rather quickly.
The next few weeks went by rather slowly, for Harry and Remus were having to think over the new development that has occurred in their relationship, even though it really hasn't even fully took off to what they both wanted to be. At least not until the day before Harry's 16th birthday…………..
Harry and Remus sat in the drawing room of Grimwald Place, as they often did after dinner, the day before Harry's birthday quite uneventful. Remus sat on the chair right next to the fire, while Harry laid on the couch a few feet away. They had books in hand and were reading, again as they often did on quiet evenings or in other words every evening.
Suddenly two tawny owls came flying in, each carrying a letter. One dropped the letter on Remus' head, causing him to curse ever so slightly. Harry, however, exclaimed when he got his letter dropped on his stomach,
"FINALLY!" Harry ripped opened his letter (which included his owl results) and read the whole thing through in a matter of a few mere minuets. Remus took more time with his, rereading it a few times before he slumped to the floor, but not passing out. Harry hurried over to him asking as he went,
"Moony everything alright? What happened? What's wrong?"
"Harry Potter you are to start getting into the habit of calling me Professor Lupin now." Remus should not have said that for a second later he got tackled and got fully knocked to the ground.
"Harry get off me! I know you're excited that I'm teaching at Hogwarts again but control your self," Remus panted as Harry pulled the former werewolf to his feet.
"I'm sorry Remus but this is so exciting! Man wait till Ron and 'Mione find out! Man they will freak out!" Harry replied. The two of them stood together longer than they thought and Harry could have sworn he saw a longing in Remus' deep, amber-brown eyes as they stared back at him. Harry sighed and hoping what he was about to do wouldn't get rejected and he hurt again.
Harry leaned into Remus, kissing him fully and with all his heart. He thought Remus would push him away but he wasn't. No in fact Remus wrapped his arms around Harry's waist and returned his kiss, causing Harry to stumble back onto the couch. Of course Remus and Harry were still glued together so Remus came on top of Harry. They wrestled for dominance inside each others' mouths. Both of them finally found the love and comfort each other needed and could give each other.
Remus broke the kiss, gasping for air. Harry was doing the same but Harry managed to ask,
"What the bloody hell just happened because I liked it truthfully."
"Whatever it was I want it to go on, slowly of course but still I want us together as more than friends," Remus replied as he laid his head over Harry's heart. There was silence for a minuet and then Harry and Remus both heard from the doorway,
"FINALLY!"
