-Chapter
Eleven-

 

 

Harry and
Severus had been in the Hospital Wing for two weeks now, and they still hadn’t
woken up. Dumbledore was watching them like a hawk, along with Fawkes who plain
refused to leave.

 

Some time
into the first week a man appeared with a huge black dog at his side, and
demanded to see Harry. Dumbledore had let them enter after a long argument
which ended with the stranger showing his badge. It told Dumbledore that he was
a respected Order of the Phoenix agent. Once inside the doors of the Hospital
Wing, the huge black dog couldn’t be chased out. It just sat there day in and
day out, watching Harry now and then growling at the bed arrangements.

 

When Madame
Pomfrey had arrived in the Chamber of Secrets they had managed to make the two
boys lay straight, but there wasownsownside to this. Harry and Severus couldn’t
be separated more than a few inches from the other, before both began to glow
golden and gasp in pain. So the two boys were placed in the same bed, Severus’
arms round Harry in a loving embrace.

 

-------------------------



Severus
really didn’t want to wake up. He felt as though a rampaging hippogriff had
jumped up and down on him, and after that that Voldemort had cast the Crucio
spell on him three times in a row. He wondered why he bothered with the evil
git. All he got out of it where pain and humiliation.

 

Severus was
suddenly aware of the body lying next to his. He dared to open his eyes and was
met with the sight of Harry lying in his arms, face buried in the nape of
Severus’ neck, sleeping peacefully.

 

Severus
watched the other boy until he slowly began to wake up. Harry’s green eyes
opened and he looked in confusion at Severus for a second, then those unnaturally
green orbs flew around the room, quickly taking in everything, and turned back
to the taller boy, this time they were calm as ever though Harry himself, began
to blush a really nice shade of pink. Severus just smiled and as Harry opened
his mouth to say something, he kissed him.

 

Harry
responded to the kiss immediately. He wouldn’t have cared if the whole damn
world saw it, they could go fuck themselves……… come to think of it, that wasn’t
such a bad idea either, and he was sure the Severus wouldn’t mind………

 

Suddenly there was a startled yelp from
somewhere in the room, the sound of the doors to the Hospital Wing opening,
someone running out, and the doors shutting again with a bang. The two
Slytherins ended their activities and sat up in bed to see who else was in the
room. They came face to face with a very flushed Lily, James who was trying to
hold his laughter back and Remus who was politely looking away. The doors of
the room opened and a very pale and at the same time flushed Sirius walked in.
Harry relaxed and leaned back into Severus’ embrace.

 

“So, um, what’s up?” Lily asked, then
realised that that wasn’t exactly the best question to ask at a time like this.
James cracked up again, Sirius flushed a deep crimson and Remus chuckled. She
herself went completely read. “Well, um, I, um, didn’t mean it like that, you
see, I-” she was cut off by Harry who began to laugh, Severus settled for
smiling slightly.

 

“By the feel of it,” Harry said evilly,
sending a devilish look at Severus. “We’re feeling much better.” The other
Slytherin had a hard time fighting down his embarrassment.

 

“Too much information!” Sirius complained,
putting his hands over his ears.

 

“But really, how are you?” James asked after
he had calmed down. He sat on the bed beside the one Chase and Snape were
occupying, and Lily sat down in his lap. “And what happened down there?”

 

“Not much,” Harry replied enjoying Severus
gently caressing his arms. “And I’m not going to tell you anything before
Dumbledore shows up.” The four Marauders looked angrily at him. “What? It’s not
the end of the world, you know?”

 

“That’s what he says.” Sirius mumbled. “I
told you he was a Slytherin from the start. A weird one, but definitely a
Slytherin.”

 

James was
about to say something else when the doors of the Hospital Wing opened and in
walked Dumbledore, followed by McGonagall, Fudge, several Auror’s and before
Harry could see the last person coming through, a huge black dog jumped up on
the bed, and started to lick him all over the face. Harry had trouble getting
the canine off, and Severus was certainly no help. The taller boy was just
sitting there, his arms around Harry, watching how the boy struggled to get the
dog off.

“Get off Snuffles!” Harry managed to say, but
the dog didn’t listen. “If you don’t get off, I’ll go and marry Voldemort!” the
room was silent, a second later there was a unconscious dog lying on the bed.
Harry checked him over before he looked up at the rest of the people in the
room. “Damn, he fainted.” Then he spotted the last person by the doors. “What
the bloody hell is HE doing here?!”
