Severus bit back a groan towards his quarters. He was aching horribly because the potions were in his quarters. He glanced back at Harry who was looking as still if he was still half asleep. What was he going to do with the boy, he had nothing wrong with him. Severus caught himself watching Potter more and more. "Come on, Potter!" Snape snapped at Potter. Pushing Potter into his quarters, with a slight hiss coming from Severus.

"What's wrong?" Potter asked as he walking into his quarters, "Just got get a headache and pain potions." As he collapsed into the chair closest to the door. "Are you sure you don't want me to go get Mamade Pomphery?" Potter questioned, Snape stared at him. "Potter I told you before we left my classroom, that Poppy had already seen to us. I just need those potions." And this was his soulmate, he glared down at the bracelet knowing that this was a good and bad thing, maybe. He wasn't even sure his what the orientation was of Potter, he wasn't even sure Potter knew himself.

There was just one other thing that Severus still had to do and what was to pop his shoulder back into place. He was waiting for Potter to get back in the room with the potions, his personal lab wasn't that hard to find. Trying to mustard up the strength to go and find Potter, when he heard Potter walking down the hall the potions clinking together as he walked, "Finally was it that hard to find potions that were labeled correctly?" Severus bit out in pain. "Well you didn't really tell me where to find them, either." Potter spoke back to him a tab bit annoyed. Severus downed the potions, and looked at Potter, "I need your help, Potter." Harry rose his eyebrow up, "Alright, what is it?" He asked quietly trying not to anger Snape. "I'm going to need you to pop my shoulder back in place." Harry stood there slightly wide eyed looking at his Professor wondering why he just had not left the nurse do it. "Right okay, sir." He spoke, "On the count of three, Potter." Harry nodded his head, and grabbed a hold of Snape's left arm, "One." "Two." "Three." Harry shoved Snape's arm up he heard the grind and a pop, and a loud groan from Snape who had stifled a scream of pain.

Although before Severus could take the pain potion, he left magic tingling all over his left arm, the one that Potter was still holding. He looked up at Potter, and the boy blushed and slightly placing Snape's arm down. Both of them were feeling slightly uneasy with each other at the moment, it had gotten kind of awkward Harry still had his blush, Severus never had much encounters with women or men. He thought he had feelings for Lily, true in love feelings but he realized over the years that they'd been no more than friendship feelings and even if they had been something more than that, Lily would've never given him the chance, specially after what he had called her. He looked up at Potter and sure he saw his old school rival as well as enemy, but he also felt the comfort from his best friend when he looked at Harry Potter now.

Feeling very uncomfortable Harry shifted, looking out into space. Harry didn't know how he was to feel about things. Every since all this stuff that had began, he had felt a lot more confused about everything, even about himself. He was intended to be with a man, a man that had hated him for the last few years. Harry didn't even know if he gay, bisexual, most teens his age were about to have a fun, and exploring things. But him, the boy that lived, he'd never got to be one himself. It wasn't easy, he wished to be normal but he had a madman after him trying to kill him. But even before then Harry hadn't got to have a normal childhood, he was brought up by abusive people, he wasn't raised he was neglected and thrown to the side. He went to reach his hand out to touch Severus to make sure he was okay, "Sir?" Asking because Snape had staring off into space for the last ten minutes or so.

When his hand finally went out to touch Severus, it was then that Harry felt magic in his hand but it was too late his hand had already made contact with his intended, his mate, bonded. He could feel Severus' magic touching his and he wondered if it was the same Snape. He could feel Severus eyes on him, and he felt uncomfortable, awkward even. It was uplifting and it made him feel tingly all over, "Harry..." He heard Snape whisper, he got spooked dropped his hand from Severus shoulder. "Sorry, sir. I-i-i g-g-got to go." Harry took off running out his door.

Severus groaned, but also was a bit angry but it was at himself than at Potter. What had he done, had he spooked him, no he didn't think so at least. Maybe it was the magic that was being felt between them. He threw his head back against the chair and stared up at the ceiling for a few moments, they hadn't even got to talk about anything- about the bracelets, about the book. Severus sighed angrily at himself, he didn't quite understand what happened with Potter. Well detention was in a few hours, maybe Potter would figure things out for himself by then.

He didn't know how long he running for, he hadn't stopped to think at all. He was frightened and scared of himself, he didn't know what was going on. He hadn't had time to think about a lot of things, such as which way his door swung. Sure he had kissed a few girls, but one was wet and the other was like kissing his sister. Once he stopped running, his head was running he could still feel the magic tingling all over him. It wasn't his magic he could feel tingling over him, it was Severus Snape's. It was weird, it was like he could feel the presence of Snape with him. It was like the bond was aware of each other, Harry didn't know how to process this at all. His head felt fuzzy, it was like it was a rush. Almost scrambled, it was weird.

When things were finally settling in his mind, things were still bouncing everywhere. His thoughts keep going back to Severus. When had Snape, become Severus? He felt confused about a lot of things, but when he felt safe, calm when he thought of Snape. What did that mean for him? He was wondering about the grounds, trying to figure out his own head. His head had never been a simple place to figure out, and with everything now. It was just so much more confusing for him, at least with everything in the past few days. It was making his head spin, what would he do. What was he going to do, he still wasn't even sure who he was in that way.

Harry had been so far in his head, he forgot about lunch, and dinner. If it wasn't for the fact that he had detention he probably wouldn't have bothered of coming back inside. How he got there, and how he was standing outside of Gryffindor Tower, just staring at the Fat Lady, who was rapidly talking to him. When he heard the humph from her, he spoke the password, "Dancing Loins." She swung open mumbling under her breath at Harry.

He walked right into the commons room, saw no one that he truly knew not even Ron and Hermione. The two people he was hoping to see, the two people he wanted to talk too, not wanted needed too. He just walked up to his dorm room, once inside he looked around to see if Ron may have been in there, but what he sees is Neville Longbottom, sitting at the foot of his bed. An eyebrow rose and he cautiously walk up to Neville, "Hey Neville, buddy. What going on?" Neville looked at him half dazed out his mind, looking at Harry. "Nothing, just sitting here thinking about how sexy Draco Malfoy is." That was a huge alarm there for Harry, "Uh Neville, you just realize that your talking about Malfoy, Draco, right?" "Yes, isn't he beautiful?" Neville said blushing. "Neville?" "Yes, Harry." "Have you ate something?" Neville looked at him with a very creepy grin on his face. "Why, yes Harry I have." "What was it Neville?" He asked, "The chocolate that's on you bed." Harry stood up and looked at his bed. Harry didn't know where that had came from, "Neville, do you know where that came from?" Harry asked looking confused. "No, it was there after dinner, and I didn't think you'd mind if I took a piece. But really isn't Draco Malfoy, sexy Harry?" No this wasn't going to happen, he picked the chocolate off the bed and told Neville,"Come on, Neville." It was about an hour before his detention, and Neville needed an antidote to the love potion that he had been given, by Malfoy or someone that was playing a huge joke on Neville. "Where we going? Are you going to introduce me to Draco?" "Sure Neville, just come on." Harry muttered as he pulled Neville out the portrait of the Fat Lady. It took them about twenty minutes to get from Gryffindor Tower to the Dungeons, because Neville keep walking off and spouting off about how beautifully handsome, and sexy that Draco Malfoy was. Harry hadn't seen him since class this morning before the explosion of his potion. What was it with Slytherins, and him? Was it because the sorting hat said that he would do well in the house, or was it because who his intended already was, being the head of house. Harry was still confused, about himself more than anything else in his whole life. Two men. One being his school rival seemingly has a crush o n him, and his Potion's Professor was to be his bonded because of some prophecy. He didn't know his sexual orientation, he never really stopped to think about it. He knew that the Dursley thought that being a homosexual was wrong, and were freaks because of it. He was already a freak to them, and Dudley already made fun of him and assumed that he was a queer, because of the nightmares with him screaming Cedric's name. "Neville, come on!" Grabbing Neville by the arm again, "But Harry, I got to tell Draco how beautiful he is." Groaning he continued to drag Neville towards Professor Snape's office.

Finally making outside of Snape's office, knocking. He heard he was the shuffling of a chair. Looking behind him and grabbing Neville when the door flung open, "Earlier I see Potter, for once in your life." He sneered down at Potter. "Sir, -" Before he was interupted, "Sir! Hi, you are Draco's godfather right?" Snape looked over at Potter flabbergasted by what was coming from Longbottom, who was usually afraid of him. "Isn't he sexy, could you introduce me to him?" Neville looked up at Snape, with a huge goofy yet creepy grin on his face. "Potter, what is wrong with Longbottom?" "I think he was posioned with a love potion, that was meant for me, sir." Harry watched Severus nodded, "I assume that it was laced within this, because he said he ate a piece of it." Handing the chocolate, over. Severus looked at it, and shocked but hid it well from Harry. It was the only type of chocolate that the Malfoy's would eat, Honeyduke's finest and the most expensive. He turned his attention to Harry and Longbottom again, before he stalked back into his office for something. "Potter, take yourself and Longbottom here to the classroom, once he is back to his normal self send him on his way, I'll return shortly." He spoke shoving the antidote into Potter's hand. "Come on, Neville." Pulling him along with him towards the potion classroom. Harry stared after Snape for a moment, he still had the tingle of magic run over him when Snape had shoved the antidote into his hand. It made him feel a bit more safe in his skin, made him worry less that his rival was attracted to him, and was crazy enough to send him a love potion.

Severus stalked down the hall casting glares at students that dared look his way, "Point Me, Draco Malfoy." He muttered under his breath, he would have a few choice words for his godson. What was the boy playing at? Sure, he didn't understand his own feelings towards Potter, or what happened to them hours ago now. The gentle caress of Potter's magic lingered over him again, from where he shoved the vile into his hands for Longbottom. "Point me, Draco Malfoy." He muttered again, he would find his godson and if Draco knew what he was good for he'd get over this little obsession that he had with Potter, and leave him alone.

Barely speaking it this time, "Point me, Draco Malfoy." Severus stalked in the direction that his wand was pointing. "Mr. Malfoy, may I have a word in private?" He spoke eloquently to his gulping godson. Severus watched as those that had been around Draco scattered, as well as the others that had been lurking about the hall. It was after school hours and dinner was over, many of the children were just visiting with friends from other houses, or in study groups. "Muffliato." Severus cast intimidating his godson, by saying nothing. "Amortentia, really, Draco." He chuckled darkly at Malfoy, who just gulped again. "Did you not think, about this clearly?" He watched Malfoy shake his head 'no' "Longbottom is who ate the chocolate." "Ugh..." He heard Draco groaned, "Is that your assignment from our Lord? To make Potter fall in love with you? Or was it for your own obsession? Hmm Draco?" He got a bit closer, to Malfoy. "Now let me tell you something. Don't. COME. Near. Potter. AGAIN." Speaking sternly at Malfoy. "If I catch you near Potter causing trouble with him, or trying to make him fall for you in anyway, I will make you rue the day you was born." Pushing his wand into Malfoy's chest.

"Oh, and Mr. Malfoy. For taking a potion outside of class, and left a toxic field and nearly leaking it to exposure to the whole school. You'll be serving a two week detention with Flinch for the next two weeks." Draco was left gaping like a fish, as Severus left him and cast 'Finite' to get rid of the Muffliato charm. What Severus nor Harry knew was that Draco after this, would be planning revenge on Severus if not both of them.

Stalking back down the fall with his robes bellowing behind him, he needed to get back to his classroom where Harry was. No, Potter was sitting in his classroom waiting on his return for his detention. It was a good thing that Draco had been down in the dungeons it hadn't taken Severus long to make it back. He threw the door open with a smirk, he saw no Longbottom but saw Potter cleaning up the classroom from that days earlier explosion in his classroom that was caused by Potter's potion. Severus cleared his throat, it caused Harry to jump and the caldron landing on his hand that he'd been cleaning out. "Oh, I hope you don't mind me going ahead and giving myself detention I didn't know how long you'd be." Harry spoke cradling his hand from were caldron landed on his hand. "Foolish boy, let me see." Severus shook his head, Harry looked at Snape and handed his hand over to the man to fix. Severus felt his hand to check it, he felt a bone moving around and Severus could also feel the magic stiring between Harry and himself once again. Before he could say the spell, he felt their magic draw them closer and closer. The magic had healed Harry's hand both were looking down at it, before Severus felt the urge to kiss the young man, he tried to fight it but his magic wouldn't let him. Lacing his fingers with Harry's hand and pulling the boy close, "Snape.. what are you-" Harry was cut off when Severus put his other hand under Harry's chin causing Harry to look up at him and leaned in to kiss him. There was a spark of magic rush throughout the both of them, the kiss had been nothing more than a peck. Harry pulled back and his hand away from Snape's, and hid over in the corner of the room. He knew that they needed to talk about things, and running out would only delay that more. Neither had noticed someone lurking in the background in the doorway of Severus' classroom, or the flash.

"Potter, I apologize." Harry turned back biting on his thumbnail, looking nervous. "It's fine, it's the bond." Harry muttered, "I know, I wanted to take all of this slow as I could. But we don't have that.." Severus spoke trying to be gentle with Harry, even though he wasn't a gentle man. Severus sigh silently cursing himself. "We only have til Christmas, to make this bond perment before the magic does it, it's self." Severus spoke again and Harry nodded with a whisper of, "I know."

"Potter, we'll take this as slow as we can, but our magic is already starting to urge us to do these things. Its just going to keep getting harder." Severus spoke, "I know." Harry spoke trying to keep his voice from breaking, "Thing is... I don't know what I am... meaning bisexual... gay." Harry said the last in a whisper. "Harry... It's okay, to be uncertain about these type of things at your age." "I know, but I'm also the boy who lived, the world wants me to be with a woman...and make babies." Harry mumbled the last part. He wanted the last part, but he couldn't have that now. He if he was gay, "Potter, did you not read the sexual education. Men can have babies too." He smiled gentle. "Uh, no.." Harry spoke blushing.

Next Chapter: Severus and Harry talk more. Next day, The Prophet has the picture taken of harry and Severus kissing. Things finally break loose, Harry finally asks about training, and then after is attacked.
