Harry and Severus spent the next few weeks trying to see as much as they could of one another without it seeming suspicious. Severus continued to tease Harry in lessons, but not so much to upset the boy again, only to keep everything how it was and to not raise suspicion.
Quick kisses when nobody was looking, accidental brushing of hands when they were near each other. Harry must have had so many fake detentions in the last three weeks than he'd had real ones in his entire lifetime.
Harry loved it when he could cuddle up and go to sleep in Severus arms. He felt so safe, so secure. Feeling his lovers lips brushing on Harry s made him feel weak. He wanted Severus so badly but his partner was having none of it.
"I want our first time to be special," Severus said softly when Harry started complaining about their non-existent sex life. "You'll have to wait, and the more you push me the longer it might take."
Harry felt hurt every time he had been turned down in this way. "I don't understand. As long as we've got each other, as long as it's me and you, how much more special can you get?" Severus ignored this last comment and rolled off to sleep, turning his back on Harry.
A tear fell on the pillow beneath Harry s head. "I love you," Harry whispered. He knew Severus had no idea how much Harry loved him, otherwise he wouldn't have a problem with Harry s desire for sex. Severus hadn't even told Harry that he loved him, Harry would only tell Severus when he could not hear. Neither of them dared to say it in case they did not have the love returned.
Harry left Snape's quarter s early in the morning. This gave him enough time to get ready and dressed before anyone noticed he wasn't there that night. Severus yawned and asked Harry if he couldn t stay a bit longer. "I feel so lonely without you. Every second without you is a second wasted." When Harry explained that he had to go Severus decided to walk him to the common room.
"Nobody s going to be up at this time in the morning," Severus told Harry when he started to worry about being seen. He took Harry s hand and led him out of the dungeon. I wish we could walk around like this properly. He said sadly.
"One day we'll be able to. It was you re idea to keep it a secret remember!" Harry said, kissing Severus passionately.
"I know, he sighed. Just wish we didn't have to tiptoe around everyone.
They embraced, Severus giving Harry a quick kiss before he returned back to bed and left Harry in Gryffindor tower. "I love you," Severus muttered when Harry was out of earshot. I just wish I could tell you.
Harry spent the next two nights in Snape's bed, creeping back to his common room in the early hours. They shared kisses at the end of lessons when all of the other students had gone to bed and made plans for lunch in places where they could be alone together. Nobody seemed to have noticed that something was going on between them. It wasn't until one morning when the front cover of The Daily Profit caught his attention.
Harry Potter s New Romance. Somebody had leaked that Severus and Harry were together, but nobody knew. As he read the article it hit him. Draco Malfoy, a student in his 6th year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was shocked to discover his classmate canoodling with his Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher. "I thought there might be something going on when I saw Potter leaving Professor Snape's quarters early in the morning. I returned the next morning and caught them kissing, I was so shocked."
Harry slammed the paper down. He noticed everyone was silently staring from him to the professor. "Harry, have you seen the bullshit Draco's been telling the papers?" Ron said, it was obvious that he thought the article was a lie.
"Ron," Harry sighed. "It's true." His friend s mouth dropped open in shock. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you before it s just that If anyone found out then Severus would have been fired. Now everyone knows he's never going to talk to me again."
Ron looked furious. "How could you. Especially with him! I didn't even know you were gay, which other teachers have you been bumming without telling me?"
Harry couldn't think of a single answer. He fled from the great hall, all eyes on him. He crawled under the cover s of his bed in the Gryffindor Tower and started to cry. Angry tears stung his eyes. He knew Severus would hate him now, all he wanted was to have his love there in the room with him. He buried himself in his pillow, cuddling it as if it were Severus. Worst of all he never had the chance to tell Snape he loved him.
Harry was not surprised to be summoned to Dumbledore s office later that day. After missing all of his lessons, not talking to anybody, he finally had to come out of his safe, warm bed and talk to Dumbledore about how he could never see Severus again. When he entered the office he saw Severus stood nervously in the corner of the room. He wanted to run up to him and hold him, to tell him how amazing and wonderful the man was. Tell him how much he loved him.
"I have called you both here to discuss the matter of you re relationship. Before I start I would like to hear from the both of you whether this accusation is true or not." Dumbledore showed no sign of emotion, he sounded very stressed and tired. Not the usual Dumbledore that was full of life.
Harry glanced at Severus. "It's true," Severus admitted. Harry gave a weak nod and looked down at his feet. This was it. Severus was going to get fired and it was all his fault. He was so scared that he would never feel Severus gentle kisses again, that he would never feel the warmth of his skin caressing his own.
The silence was unbearable, finally Dumbledore spoke. "As Harry is old enough to consent to any sexual activity I cannot prevent this relationship from carrying on. I do however give you a warning that this is a serious matter and others may not see this the way I do. After all, I knew how the two of you felt about each other before you expressed it. I personally feel that you two are well suited and it gives me great pleasure to think of the pair of you being happy. Harry you ve dealt with so much loss, as have you Severus. I hope you two have something that you can hold on to". Dumbledore smiled gravely. "I would also like to say that I hope you two good luck with you re future relationship. You re going to need it."
As soon as the words sunk in properly Harry felt a pair of arms sweep him up into the air. "Harry," breathed Severus softly. They seemed to be stood there for what seemed like forever. Dumbledore s eyes rested on the pair. They looked so perfect for each other. "I was so scared I was going to loose you." Tears formed in Severus eyes.
Harry wiped away a tear of his own as he felt Severus warm embrace. They were made for each other and Harry knew it. "I love you Sev," Harry whispered softly.
"I love you too Harry." Severus smiled and allowed himself to become human. Showing emotion in front of Harry was one thing but now Albus knew that he had such deep feelings for Harry.
Stumbling into Severus office, Snape dragged Harry over towards the bed. "I m ready," he said in a whisper. They undressed each other, taking in every moment. Pulling off Harry s shirt Severus admired Harry s body. He was so good looking. Harry was in turn delighted when he pulled off Snape's clothes to find the most amazing sight he had ever seen. Severus was so toned, his body was angelic. You would never have known what beauty lay under the large cloak that he always wore.
Severus felt himself becoming hard. Stroking Harry s erection he felt butterflies. They were actually going to do this. I want you inside me, moaned Harry softly. Severus knew that this was Harry s first time. He was frightened in case he hurt him. Sliding a lubricated finger into Harry s firm arse he felt his sweetheart shiver slightly.
"Does it hurt?" Severus asked concerned.
"No, moaned Harry." More.
Severus did as he was instructed and slid another oily finger into Harry. When he thought Harry was getting used to this he slipped in another. He was so frightened of hurting Harry and he went so slowly. When he couldn't hold out any longer Severus slid his hard cock into Harry s entrance.
They simultaneously moaned with enjoyment. Severus thrust into Harry as carefully as he could. He didn't dare move too much, he wanted Harry to be as comfortable as possible. Harder "Sev," Harry called out. "Please?" He begged when Severus ignored this request.
"I love you Harry," Severus called out before becoming more forceful and started to thrust harder into his lover. God, Harry felt so good. Why did he wait so long to feel such pleasure. They both moaned, wow Harry was amazing. He was close to cuming, but he couldn t Not yet. Slowing down Severus started to stroke Harry s cock. Harry groaned. It felt perfect. When Severus could hold it in no longer, Harry felt the hot substance Severus produced in his ass. It was so warm, so nice.
As Severus pulled out he started to kiss Harry, first on the neck, getting slowly lower. Eventually he became face to face with Harry s pert penis. Opening his mouth he started to suck, gently swirling his tongue around the head, teasing it. Harry moaned, he was close, he could feel himself getting harder. Severus prepared himself as the sticky cum entered his mouth. He swallowed it, savoring the taste. He d always dreamed of tasting Harry Potter. Now, he had.
Sweaty and tired, they fell into each other s arms and fell asleep holding one another. Harry used to love dreams, they kept him away from the truth that was reality. Now all he wanted was to be awake, nothing could be better than reality now that he had Severus.
