Visit
Severus looked up at the scratching sound and frowned. What was that? The sound continued, dragging him from his desk and to his door. He listened and threw the door open when the scratching started up again.
He blinked and then sighed. With a small smile, he held the door open and stood to the side. He watched the large lion slink into his quarters.
"You shouldn't be down here," he said as the lion sat on the floor and stared at him. "What if you were seen?"
The lion stood up again and rubbed against his legs, purring. It then went back to where it had been sitting and shimmered. Harry grinned as he stood where the lion had been.
"But that's the beauty of it all. No one knows I'm an Animagus, let alone my form, except you," Harry said.
Severus rolled his eyes and headed back to his desk. He was halted by arms around his waist and a body against his back.
"I just missed you," Harry mumbled.
Severus smiled and placed a hand on the clasped ones on his waist.
