lighted eagle: You were a great reviewer, you told me what you liked about it what was brilliant, thank you so much for your review. About the length, the longer they are the more inconsistent updating will be, but every now and again there will be a long chapter. Thanks again.

Unwanted or Improper - Chapter 7
*
Revelation - the speech act of making something evident, an enlightening or astonishing disclosure
*
Severus, under no circumstances, was going to be nice to the boy. But, the more he thought about it, the more he knew that even Potter didn't deserve to be... raped. No one did. Snape shuddered. Rape was a large part of being a Death Eater. Riddle enjoyed the helpless feeling it gave the victim.
*
He needed to talk to Hermione! Hermione was always good at calming him down. But she still wasn't talking to him. Dammit! Why was his life so messed up? Ron. He'd talk to Ron. Ron would know what to do. Or not. Ron would probably run away screaming something about mental images.
Oh, come on! He told himself. If Ron could deal with him having to bond with Sn-Severus. Severus. If Ron could deal with him having to have sex with Severus, then he could deal with him doing it this week. But Harry wasn't so sure if Ron could handle giving advice about it. He imagined it would come with a horror something akin to his fear of spiders. Oh well, it had to be worth a try.
The two had just escaped Snape's chambers. The hours in the isolation inflicted by Albus were up, thank Merlin.
Ron was probably crawling up the walls. He did that. Worry. It was in his nature. And he still had to talk to Sirius. He wasn't looking forward to that. But then there was what Severus - it still felt strange - said. If Siri and Professor Lupin were a couple it would make telling them ten times easier.
*
"Ron?"
"Yeah, Harry?"
"I have a week."
Ron sat up quickly on his couch in the Gryffindor common room. "For what?"
"I have a week to do it with Sna-Severus." He stumbled over the name again, cursing himself.
"Do... it? You're joking!" The look on Ron's face was priceless, and it would have been funnier had Harry not been in the current situation.
"No, Ron, believe me, I'm not." There really wasn't much of a positive response.
"You're not?"
"No."
"Sorry."
"It's okay."
"No, it's not." Ron insisted.
"I don't - I don't..." Harry didn't know what to say. For the first time in a while he was scared. Really scared.
"Yeah." Ron leant back, unsure of what to do.
"Yeah." A resigned sigh sounded. This was his life.
*
A few moans were heard from inside the room. Harry almost turned and ran. He didn't want to interrupt. Not this. But Harry only had a certain amount of time to tell them and if he chickened out now, he'd never be able to do it. He braced himself as he knocked on the door. "Who is it?" An irritated voice asked. Harry grimaced.
"It's me, Harry!" He yelled back.
"Oh! Wait!"
Then a series of words were heard. "... move... pants... not... now!... robes... where are my..." Harry squeezed his eyes shut, trying not to provoke any disturbing images of his godfather and professor.
"Harry!" Sirius cried in delight as he opened the door. Harry ignored the disheveled hair and shirt. He was enveloped in a hug.
"Hi." He greeted the two, Remus was seating on the chair in the corner.
"Albus told us you would want to tell us something." Sirius gestured for him to sit.
"Sirius tried to weasel it out of him, but you know the Headmaster." The werewolf grinned at Harry.
"Cryptic." Harry knew the Headmaster alright, he knew him a little too well.
"Anyway, what was it?"
"Well..."
"What?"
"It's that..."
"Yes?"
"Oh for goodness sake Siri! Let him finish." Remus finally ordered.
"Okay, fine, go on Harry."
Well, he had to start somewhere. "I'm gay." He burst out.
"Gay?"
What other kind of gay was there? "Yes, gay."
"And Albus knew this?" Remus sounded curious. Why didn't they just get to the point?
"Well, yes." He still had to ask about that actually. Sick old man.
Sirius still hadn't said anything. That worried him but made him a little angry at the same time. After all, Sirius wasn't exactly one to talk.
"Why would he tell us just for that?" Just for that! Just for that! He'd spent ages agonizing over telling them, and it was 'just for that'?
"Well, there is something else." Harry admitted reluctantly, wishing Sirius would just say something. Anything!
"So, you're telling us you're feeling a little lighthearted today?" Maybe not that.
Remus socked him. "Sirius! Stop teasing him, you know exactly what he's talking about!" Sirius burst out laughing. Relief washed over Harry. Remus patted his shoulder. "Ignore him. Sirius and I are together."
"I know." Harry sighed. Oh how he wished he didn't.
"You know?" Sirius had composed himself.
"Another time." Harry sighed. "I'll tell you another time."
Remus interrupted any protests Sirius might have had. "What else did you want to tell us?"
The hour of truth. "Er, well you see, the Headmaster has discovered something."
"What?"
"Sirius!" Remus glared at the other man. Sirius was silent.
"He found out that there was a bond between me and -"
"Who?" This time both had jumped to ask the question.
"Snape." Harry whispered quickly.
Too quickly. "Who?"
"Snape." He said, slightly louder.
Both men leant in. Dammit! "Snape!" He shouted.
The leapt away, Sirius falling to the ground. "What?" The outrage was clear on his face and voice. "I'll kill the bastard!"
Albus or Severus? Harry would've thought it would take longer to process but it was clear that the two were in perfect understanding. That Snape would very soon be dead.
"Don't you dare!" He shouted. "After all, if you kill him, you kill me! The bond, remember?"
Sirius' face fell. "But-"
"No buts!" Harry couldn't believe he was defending the Potions Master, nor that he was telling off his godfather.
"Harry, he's-"
"My soulmate." No! No, he wasn't! He was just a greasy professor who hated him!
Remus tried. "So, Albus knew this?"
"Yes."
"And he approved?"
Approved? "He locked us in a room together." That should be more than enough of an answer.
"And what happened?" Sirius roared. Harry didn't think Sirius could roar. He was wrong.
"Nothing. Nothing happened."
"You're calling him Severus." Remus sounded doubtful.
"Dumbledore said I had to."
"So," Sirius had actually begun to smile. "He has to call you... Harry?"
"Yes..." He couldn't see what was so funny to Sirius.
"You know," A thoughtful looking Remus broke in. "If Harry is your godson, and Snape is his bonded, that would make him something like your son in-law."
This time a wicked grin graced Sirius' face. "You're right. It would."
"Don't even think about it." Harry warned. There was no point in getting Sirius worked up.
"Yes, Harry is right." Harry sighed in relief. "You'd better not get Snape pissed off by even mentioning that." Remus turned to Harry. "When do you two have to... you know?"
Sirius' face turned stormy again. "Yes Harry, when?"
Harry almost took a step back. "Well-"
"Yes?" Not again!
"Well, it turns out..."
"Go on?"
"By the end of the week." He just let it sink in.
"What?" This was turning into a long day.
*
Snape could anticipate the reactions Harry was going to receive from that mutt of a godfather and his partner. A lot of revelations to make there. He could expect some death threats, maybe a few attempts. He had no doubt that the boy would not do anything to defend him.
Albus might not find this so amusing when he discovered just how many were against this. The Granger girl already seemed to be against the boy quite strongly. She'd come around. Harry's (he had to get used to that) friends loved him. That much was evident. It was strange how he seemed to attract that kind of simple devotion. Not hero-worship after all. Although that Weasley was far too much like his mother. Molly Weasley was one of the only people to truly scare Snape.
Now he just had to figure out how to deal with the incoming disaster the bond was going to cause. He had to stop calling it a disaster. Snape sighed, disaster was too weak a word for it.
He had to make sure the boy felt something. Otherwise it would be as good as rape and that was exactly what he was trying to avoid. Okay, firstly, he had to wash his hair. There was definitely a considerable turn off there. It wasn't too hard to see it go though, greasy hair was just another side affect of dealing with potions. So, off to the shower.
*
End of Chapter 7
So... how was it? It's definitely shorter than the last chapter, but I realized how long it had been since I'd last updated and was extremely ashamed. So I hope you enjoyed it and please review.
