The next day was interesting to say the least.

Harry woke walked into the Slytherin common room and asked were the showers were. A first year escorted him to the massive shower room. They had a swimming pool inside also. He smirked and made his way to the shower, dressed and headed for the grand hall. Everywhere he looked students were looking down engrossed with their tablets. He heard two Hufflepuffs and a Ravenclaw laughing as they watched a student play angry birds.

He made his way into the grand hall. Snape was sitting at the students table waiting for him. The room was a complete transformation. The teachers sat eating staring around completely mystified as to what the hell was going on. There were no more flags showing only one house. The Hogwarts flags hanging proudly on every surface. The normal four house tables were gone. Now there were tables littering the place everywhere only holding enough room for six people. The students had listened to him. All houses were intermingled sitting with one another laughing talking about last night and what they were going to do with the new classes once they had been put together.

Minerva spotting Harry jerked away from the table and almost ran to him. Harry sat with Snape and waited for her to join them.

Snape rolled his eyes as she plopped down with them. "What is going on Mr. Potter? Every student in Hogwarts has dropped Muggle studies and says they will be taking an alternate class. Would you like to explain?"

Harry smiled and did. He told her about the meeting he had with the students.

She looked at him utterly flabbergasted. "Can I see your memory?"

Harry smirked, "Sure."

Harry took his wand and handed over the memory in an empty goblet. She didn't wait and picked up the memory as Snape and Harry continued to eat.

"Have you decided to go to him?"

"I'm leaving tonight. We will leave tomorrow night. Are you going to tell Draco what you are planning?"

Harry looked around the room and saw the blond in question. He was sitting with Blaise and Neville. Looks like they were trying. Harry turned back around and looked at Snape but shook his head no.

Minerva came out of the memory then. Her eyes whipped to Harry. "I must say. I agree with you."

"Good, you can help. We will need a classroom and student volunteers to teach. I think Hermione should be one of them. I don't know who else. Maybe, you can plan it with her so she can do that and her classes without affecting her grades. We will also need people for the wizarding classes and with that I have no idea where to begin. I know nothing."

Minerva was still looking at Harry floored when Zabini, Malfoy and Pansy walked to them. Pansy spoke quietly. "We are volunteering for the wizarding classes. I want to do mine on fashion and etiquette. Blaise wants to do it on customs like greetings and formal meetings. Draco wants to do his on business practices and integration."

Harry smiled. "Minerva is helping us. Please give her your schedules and times you think it would be easy on you. She probably needs everyone's house quiddich schedules so spread that around. I think we will be able to pull this little coo off."

"Hey, Neville! I want you to help me with my class. I'm going to need to show flower and plant arrangements for some of the custom greetings. Will you help me?" Zabini screamed as he saw Neville getting up to leave.

Neville nodded and Zabini followed him out the door as they spoke about what he needed. Harry turned to Minerva. "That's right. What you just saw. It is hell freezing over."

Minerva watched the boys retreat and started putting food on her plate deciding to eat with them and finally spoke. "I'll be damned."

Everyone's mouths dropped open as Harry burst into laughter.

His first class of the day was potions. He thought it was utter bullshit that he had to take these damn things again but he was trying to be some what good. He made it in his classroom and looked around. He walked to Neville which everyone avoided in this class and sat next to him.

"Will you be my partner?"

Neville looked at him like he had grown an extra head. "Harry, you know I'm daft at potions."

"Well, I've gotten a lot better. We can do this together. I will work with the ingredients and you can do the potion. We will do this just wait. We are going to shock the hell out of everyone today."

Neville gave him the insane look again but smiled and nodded. Slughorn came in then and pointed to the board. "Page 127, you have until class is finished."

Snape walked into the room then. Harry was confused. "What is wrong?"

Snape leaned in and sneered at Longbottom.

"You quit that shit now." Harry snarled.

"Fine. You need to take this before you begin so if you inhale anything it won't hurt the fetus."

Harry took the potion and handed him the empty bottle. "Anything else?"

Snape snorted and walked back out of the room. Harry shook his head and flipped the page open and went to get the ingredients. He made it back to their desk and sat them down. Neville started the fire and added water. While they waited for it to boil, Harry looked over the instructions.

He looked up to Neville who looked upset. Harry took his hand and waited until their eyes met. "Neville, I promise I'm going to help you. Look I was horrible at potions because Snape made me so fucking nervous. It was like I could never get anything right. I fucking hated this class." Harry smirked. "Still do, but my boyfriend."

Harry didn't notice Malfoy sitting with Pansy behind him listening completely ignoring his potion with Pansy just as interested.

"He is a fucking nutcase and he loves this damn class. He gets so enthusiastic about it. He loves how things interact and how each step is like building a beautiful crescendo or however the fuck he tries to explain it. I just love the way he talks about it and I really tried to get better for him. He encouraged me and cleaned up all my botched tries and we laughed every time I exploded a cauldron. We lost count on how many." Harry grinned then. "He even started rewarding me when I would get them right. Blow jobs were a great incentive."

Neville's eyes got the size of saucers. Then they both snickered quietly.

"I can promise you I'll help and I can totally give you chocolate."

Neville laughed then. "You really love him don't you?"

Harry smiled his hand going to his stomach without his knowledge. "With everything I am."

Neville smiled and looked to the cauldron. "Okay, I'm ready."

Harry nodded and grabbed the first ingredient. The potion was a sixth year potion so it wasn't easy. There were so many ingredients and ways to stir and if it wasn't for all of what Draco had taught him, they would have failed miserably. But, they were hanging on. All the tricks of getting extracts out by using daggers instead of crushing and crushing instead of cutting Harry told Neville and showed him explaining it as he did it. Neville followed every instruction and took notes in his book like Harry did so he could look at it later. Several cauldrons had exploded. All eyes would go to their table but Harry would grab Neville's hand assuring them they were okay and Neville would smile and they would continue. By then end of the class, their potion was perfect.

Slughorn walked to their table and was shocked as he and Neville were grinning like loons at their finished product. "I must say Harry good show."

Harry snorted. "If you were paying attention, I only prepared the ingredients Neville did all the cauldron work."
Slughorn looked at Neville again his mouth falling open then he nodded. "Good work. Top marks to both of you. Put a sample on my desk."

Harry leaned over and whispered as Neville filled the vial. "He's a wanker. You were perfect."

Harry loaded his books and walked with a happy Neville back to the hall for lunch. He watched Snape come in and sit at the teacher table and nod to him. He'd gone to the Manor. Harry sat as Neville beamed. Zabini and Pansy joined them with Luna and Ginny a few steps behind. Malfoy grabbed another chair and joined them. Harry stared out the window. They would be taking such a huge risk but they had no damn choice. Until they got that damn cup, everyone was screwed and Narcissa needed out of that fucking house. Harry knew Lucius was not going to protect her. He hadn't protected Draco when he had been raped.

Malfoy touched his hand to get his attention. Harry whipped his hand from the table startling everyone. Harry tried desperately to play it off and laughed. "Sorry, you scared the shit out of me. I was daydreaming."

Everyone snickered then. Crisis averted.

He turned back to the table. "Blaise was asking about your world. Did everyone get along?"

Harry laughed. "Hell no. It was totally different. The first time I fought Voldemort I listened to Dumbledore he only gave me half the information I needed and it was a fucking disaster. I couldn't attend my last year and the death eaters invaded the school. They tortured first years and killed several students. It was awful. I don't want that to happen here. I want everyone to be safe. If the houses stay unified, the death eaters will not be able to enter the school."

"Did anybody we know get together?" Pansy asked and leaned into the table.

Harry smirked. "I probably shouldn't say."

Blaise smirked. "Yes, you should."

Harry had the opening that would have Blaise questioning his words. He smirked leaning in everyone else followed. "There was the one lion snake couple."

Blaise laughed. "Who the hell was it? Tell me it wasn't the bookworm."

Harry laughed. "Oh no, it was you and Neville."

Shock resounded around the table. Both boys went completely red. "It was bad too you were both fucking rabid. My prat of a boyfriend demanded he would not be outshone by Fucking Longbottom and let me tell you neither one of us could barely walk or sit down for three fucking weeks. We became very close by the way hiding from both of the gits. We bonded over spells to relieve discomfort as we hobbled around the school hiding."

Everyone at the table but Malfoy, Neville and Blaise burst into laughter.

"There is no way I am a fucking bottom."

Harry laughed. "I assure you. In my world, needy."

Blaise blustered and the laughter roared around them again. Even Malfoy smirked. "Neville, we don't have to listen to this shit, come on."

Neville red faced smiled at Harry then followed Blaise out the door. Pansy wiped tears out of her eyes. "I swear. I think I like them together. A lion and a snake, who knew?"

Harry just turned back to the window as Pansy and Ginny started showing each other what they were doing on their tablets and Malfoy moved to the table across from Harry and began to speak to Luna. Harry tried to ignore the thoughts focused on the Manor.

Before lunch was over, Dobby popped up and handed Harry more potions. Harry wanted to snarl but threw them back and handed Dobby the empties and waited.

"Harry, is there something wrong with you?" Ginny asked concerned.

Harry shook his head. "No, I came here only minutes after I fought him. I'm trying to get my health back. It took a lot out of me. Right now my body is at a low point."

Everyone nodded. Ginny turned to him and spoke quietly. "You will get back there before you know it."

He nodded. "I don't even know how. I'm just going to focus on Voldemort and helping the students stay safe and just hope when it's all over. I'll make it back."

"You will."

He leaned over touching his forehead to hers. She was startled at first by the gestured then smiled. It was something he did with his Ginny. They'd become so close. Her crush was gone and she'd become his sister. It was such a sibling gesture she hugged him. "You will." She repeated.

They all made it to their next classes. His was transfiguration. He walked in and Neville sat with him again. Harry grinned. "I swear, I was only trying to embarrass Zabini. It was the truth but I didn't think about embarrassing you until it was out of my mouth."

Neville snickered. "I think its funny Draco was trying to out perform me...me."

Harry laughed. "He's a git. And you can laugh about that shit all day. Neville Longbottom, sex god, if what Zabini was telling me has any merit."

Neville flashed twelve shades of red and then did his first true to god smirk. Harry burst into a fit of giggles like a girl. Minerva walked into the room and they tried to not smile at each other about their conversation from earlier when their eyes met. Class dismissed and Harry followed Neville to herbology. This class Neville was in the lead and kept Harry from killing himself on the plant that tried to eat him several times. He only had three or four damn bite marks on his arm. The damn plant loved fucking Neville thou. The fucking traitorous bastard continually stroked Neville's hands and face like a lover. Stupid prat plant.

Neville was still dusting Harry off as they walked into the hall for dinner. He was joined by the same people for dinner Malfoy, Neville, Luna, Ginny, Pansy and Zabini. Harry looked around and all the tables were still unified. At least three houses to a table a lot though had all four. He was so proud.

The teachers were still thunderstruck by what was going on. Dumbledore stood and addressed the students.

"We have been informed of your hatred of muggle studies classes and your ideas on new classes being added. All professors and myself agree with you. This will be implemented as soon as possible. We all wish to congratulate you on house unity. This is the first time in Hogwarts history that Hogwarts has unified all the way to the wards. Hogwarts has never been safer."

Harry smirked at the occupants at his table. Dumbledore smiled and sat down again.

They all got up for dinner and headed to their dorms. Harry walked with the Slytherins until he pointed to Snape's rooms. He walked the rest of the way knocking on the portrait waiting for Snape. He found Harry minutes later and ushered him in.

"How did it go?"

Snape ran his hand along the back of his neck. Something Harry had never saw before. "I spoke to Narcissa. She told me she would do whatever the hell you told her as long as you keep Draco safe. She will be waiting tomorrow. I told her we would take her to Grimmauld Place. She agreed. I didn't tell her about Bellatrix. I was worried she would get nervous. She planned to fake wizard's flu tonight. I gave her a potion that would give her the symptoms. She should be deathly ill right now. I'm sure everyone will stay away from her. I told the dark lord what you wanted. He is quite confused about your change of house and very intrigued at the same time. He was practically smiling when I told him you were angry at the golden trio and Albus. You're right he will let his guard down a little. He is too ecstatic that the golden boy is a snake. He is going to leak it to the press tomorrow."

Harry nodded. "I hope so. Rita will descend with the ministry and what will they see Hufflepuffs laughing with Slytherins and banners unified something that hasn't happened in Hogwarts history. Rita will fucking salivate and turn this shit around so fast because that is not only selling news that is history."

"Fudge is going to be furious." Snape smirked.

"Good."

"I want to visit Remus."

"Fine, but I'm going with you."

They both walked to the fireplace and Snape threw in the powder. Harry followed Snape through the floo and what he found was fucking disturbing.

Remus was sitting in a chair reading but Grimmauld place was unrecognizable. Harry and Snape just fucking stared around the room like damn morons. It was completely clean. The color schemes had changed from Mordor to home and garden. Creams patched the walls and furniture. Pictures of Hogwarts and castles, creatures of that looked dreamy and mystic covered the walls. Harry saw pictures of himself, friends, family.

Remus stood up and greeted them laughing at both of their faces. "I know. Kreacher has outdone himself."

"Kreacher."

A pop followed by a beaming elf.

"Did you do all this by yourself?"

"Master Potter Black I did this with Master Dobby. We thought it would be a good surprise. Kreacher is happy that the house shines again. We thought you would like a more happy house."

Harry collapsed on the couch. "This is… I can't even think of the words."

Kreacher beamed.

"Kreacher Narcissa is hopefully coming tomorrow night. We are going to try to save her from the manor."

"Mistress Narcissa is coming?" He asked excited.

"Yes, Kreature. Can you make her a room? She is probably going to need stuff. I have no idea what she needs, but will you help her? I'm sure she can ask for whatever she wants when she gets here just make sure she has a room."

Kreature bowed and popped out of the room. Harry was still so flabbergasted by his surroundings he didn't notice Remus approaching him or him sniffing him.

"Harry, you're pregnant."

Harry's head whipped around as if he'd been slapped. "Damn it. I can't keep shit secret. How the fuck am I supposed to protect myself. Snape knew without me telling him and now one more damn person knows. This fucking child is doomed."

Remus turned to Harry upset. "Harry, wolf. I know your normal smell and you smell like." He sniffed again. "Malfoy."

"Right in two." Harry groaned and fell on the couch.

"I can't explain this shit again. Snape, I give you permission to tell Remus."

Harry stood and walked around the house going to Sirius's room. Regulus and Sirius rooms had not been touched. Harry was grateful for this. The god awful painting was gone and now had one of Sirius and Regulus standing together. Much better Harry thought.

Harry explored the rest of the house then joined Remus and Snape in the living room. Snape had skipped the explanation and let him see his memories instead. When Harry walked in he knew Remus knew the truth of him.

"Harry, I don't know what to say."

Harry shrugged. "Your Harry will be fine. He is probably holed up with either Draco or the Weasleys. He won't have my prejudice against them. Molly loves me even though I hate her son. She would take him until I can find our way back."

Remus nodded and jerked him into a hug. Harry just lost it then. The tears he'd not shed his grief he'd buried under his pain for losing Draco burst like a damn breaking. Sob after sob wracked him. Even Snape felt sorry for him and hugged him from the back as Remus still was plastered to the front of him.

"I had to walk over your dead body on my way to die."

Both men around him flinched. "Harry, it's over."

Harry shook his head. "No, its over for your Harry. I'm here now and have to do it again."

"Harry you can't face him pregnant. You can't risk that baby."

"I will because until this shit is done and until I can save as many of you as I can. This shit isn't over. My gift to the other Potter is you alive, Tonks alive, Fred alive, Bill not being bitten by a werewolf and maybe save a few more. Dobby fucking dies. I can't face losing you all again even if you aren't mine but his. I can save you for him and maybe death will let me go back, maybe fate will give me my Draco who I know is just as fucking scared and upset I'm here. He has the old me who doesn't give a damn about him. Who has Ron screaming how horrible he is and how I'm a fucking poof and disgrace yelling at him." Harry felt his knees give out. "I just want fucking Draco back."

"Harry, it's okay."

Remus and Snape stood not looking at the other as they held him from collapsing. Harry finally stopped shaking and felt the tears stop falling. He would be okay. He had the beginning of a plan. One step. That is what he did last time. He didn't think about the bigger picture or the future. He'd survived by doing what he could one damn step at a time. One goal. One tiny goal. And each time he reached it, he would go to the next. That is how he'd won the war and not gone fucking crazy.

He could do this, again.

Harry finally collapsed on the couch. "Please help Narcissa, if we can get her here."

"Of course, it will be good to have someone else in the house."

"I'm sure after Bellatrix and Voldemort for company you will be a fucking holiday."

They all shook the disgust away at the thought.

"Let me see your back."

Harry hesitated then turned and waited as Remus lifted up Harry's shirt. He kept lifting until he saw all the scars. He lowered his shirt and Harry watched his hands shake as the wolf inside of him fumed.

"I understand why you can't forgive him."

Harry nodded and stood. "Snape we should head back. Remus, I'm glad I got to see you even for a little while. Please, be safe and stay the hell away from Dumbledore. You should owl Tonks."

Remus blushed but nodded. Snape smirked beside Harry as they made their way back to the floo and Hogwarts. Harry fell through the fireplace and was caught by Snape. He nodded his goodnight and headed for the Slytherin dorm. He'd made it a few steps inside when he was almost tackled by a first year asking him what kind of socks Dobby liked to thank him for his gift.

Harry laughed and told him simply crazier the better. "He loves them bright and crazy and he likes his clothes like that too if you want to spread it around. I give him socks and shirts with muggle phrases all the time."

The first year nodded and ran out of the common room to spread the news. Dobby was now everyone's favorite elf. Pansy joined him as he made his way to his room. Harry walked in stripping and put on pajamas as she chatted away about the insanity of what was going on and how she was enjoying the redhead's company.

Harry laughed and sat on the bed. She flopped down beside him and they talked about boys until Harry fell asleep beside her. Neither noticed the blond outside his open door listening to every word.
