*****Chapter 5

The rest of the morning went well for the three men. Sirius and Severus talked about school, and Harry listened intently. After a couple of hours of talking Harry got tired of talking and wanted to go exploring some more.

“OK, here’s the deal, we eat lunch and we go to the vaults, fair enough?” Sirius nodded, he really hadn’t had any idea of what exactly the vaults were. “Yes, Severus you can play in the potions room if you like. I’ll be going back and forth from odds and ends and the library.” Severus nodded his head, again he looked like a kid in the candy store and Harry smiled.

They had a very satisfying lunch and then left to the patch of grass. Harry raised his wand and said “I am the Gryffindor heir please allow me entrance to the vaults.” The grass opened up just like it did the day before. Sirius again was very surprised.

“Harry, aren’t you worried about someone getting in there?” Harry laughed.

“That can’t happen, you have to have the Gryffindor blood in you to get in. Come.” The torch flew up and Harry entered. “Sirius just so you know, I have to be the first to go in and the last to come out. No one can take anything out but me, so don’t try anything stupid. Elon didn’t tell us what the consequences were, and I don’t feel like finding out.” Harry said as he started lighting the torches. Severus made a b-line for the potions room.

“Thank you Harry” Severus said as he walked by. Harry simply smiled. He liked to see Severus happy, he really did. “Si “Sirius, you can go into any room except the one that says money on the door, only I can go in there. I am going to go to the odds and ends room, there were some boots in there I want to find out about.”Harry said as he walked to the odds and ends room. Sirius went to the library and found some things that James was working on before he died. It made Sirius sad to think about it, but he did feel better now that he had his cry over it. Sirius sat down and started looking over the research. It was potions and had to do with the wolf’s bane potion. It looked like James was trying to make it better but knowing James really wasn’t that good at potions, it wouldn’t work.

Sirius picked up what he had seen and took it to the potions room. “Severus, may I interrupt you for a moment, I think I have something here that may be of interest to a potions master.” Severus looked up and cocked his eyebrow and looked at what Sirius had brought to him.

“You know Sirius I think he was on to something with this. Let me do a little more research, we all know James was crap at potions, but he does have a good base on this.” With that Severus swept out of the lab and back over to the library and saw the books that James had opened all those years ago. He started to study and research the theory of improving the Wolf’s bane potion.

Harry was in the odds and ends room and was looking through the inventory book trying to find those boots. he had found a lot of neat stuff, Sirius came in with a “Wow look at all this stuff” Harry was deeply concentrating on finding out about the boots.

“A-HAH found them” he exclaimed pointing in the book. Sirius came and read over Harry’s back. They were boots of endurance. They were able to make you walk longer and a little faster then normal.

“Harry, what’s in the other 2 rooms up front?” asked Sirius.

“Those are the rooms that hold all the family wands and staves from the past. They all get in there magically. Mum and dad’s are inre ire if you want to go see them. Dad had a staff too, a really pretty one. I should invite Mr. Ollivander over to look at them. I think he’d have a blast looking at them.”Harry smiled to himself. “Do you know what isn’t in here that should be in here?” Harry said thoughtfully.

“The only thing I can think of is that sword you pulled out of the sorting hat, but how it got in there I’ll never know.” Sirius admitted.

“Oh I think I had a little devine intervention on that one, by one Godric Gryffendor.” Harry smiled to himself. Harry held out his hand and thought of the sword and it magically appeared in his hand. Harry placed it back in it’s sheath and put it back in it’s place. Harry kissed the hilt before taking his hands off. “Thank you Godric, I am still here because of you.” Harry said softly enough that Sirius couldn’t hear anything but a murmur. Harry suddenly felt a warmth through his heart as almost a your welcome. He smiled again.
Albus was sitting in his office when the sword hissed and vanished. Albus smiled and said “Well, at least it is now where it belongs.”

Harry, Sirius and Severus spent a few more hours in the vaults before heading out for dinner. Severus actually made quite a bit of headway on the research James had started, he wasn’t far off at all. He would have to make some next month and see if it did in fact help with the pain of the transformation. After Dinner, Sirius bid his farewells, he was invited to spend the night, but he wanted to be there for Remus, he was not feeling well that morning due to his transformation.

“Sirius before you go, I want to loan you something that may help Remus feel better.” Harry pulled out a ball from his pocket, pushed it into Sirius’ hands. “It’s an orb of healing, it will help him recover faster from his transformations. It is on loan indeffinetly to Remus. Would you please see that he gets it?”Sirius nodded. and pulled Harry into a hug.

“Harry, I am so proud of you, you have become an extraordinary young man. James and Lily would be very proud to have such a young man for their son, and I am privilged to be your godfather.” Sirius said quietly so Severus couldn’t hear him. Sirius and Harry pulled out of the hug looked at each other and then Sirius apparated back to the house in the woods. Sirius took the orb and shoved it in Remus’hands, he knew he wouldn’t if he told him what it was. and almost instantly Remelt elt better.

“Sirius” croaked out the voice of a tired man, tired and sore. “Where did you get a healing orb? There aren’t many left in the world. and this one is virtually undamaged.”

“Shhh Remus, rest, I have a lot to tell you when your felling better. At this rate tomorrow morning, just get some good sleep my friend.

Back at Godric’s Hollow Harry and Severus were in bed talking and cuddling. They hadn’t really had a chance to talk during the day.

“You know Severus, it’s lucky for me that everyone thinks Godrics Hollow is named after Godric Potter not Godric Gryffindor. Otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to get any peace today.” Harry said while snuggling into Severus neck.

“I do believe your right. I got a lot of research done on the improved Wolf’s bane potion, thank you for letting me down there.” Harry looked up at him and kissed him.

When they broke the kiss Harry said “Your quite welcome Severus. I do believe that you’ll have enough material in the second floor library to finish your research and there is a potions lab in the basement as well if you wanted to practice, it is fully stocked. I had them stock it for you this morning. I know how much you do enjoy your potions making.” Harry smiled and Kissed a big eyed Severus.

“Harry I don’t know what has gotten into you with this house, but I think I really like it.” Severus kissed Harry. Harry then deepened the kiss, soon they found themselves in the same position as that morning, Harry’s haon Son Severus’ face and Severus’ hand in Harry’s hair. Unlike that morning though, they didn’t stop there. Soon hands were roaming bodies, hot bodies that were squirming to be touch, ready to be on fire, ready to be pleased. Both men were soon very aroused. They then broke the extremely heated kiss and stared at each other for a few moment, talking with their eyes to each other, seeing what the other wanted. Harry snapped his fingers without breaking eye contact with Severus and both shirts went flying off their bodies. Now they were skin to skin on stomach and chest, this made them even more arroused. They both dove back into kissing passionately. More passionately then either of them had ever done in the past. They both broke from the kiss and started sucking on each others necks, moans escaping both of them. There was no turning back now, none at all. They nibbled on each others ears and necks.

Harry started working his way down to Severus collarbone, Severus moaned with pleasure on this action, Harry sucked on it hard and that drove Severus wild, Harry could feel the body heat rise with he did that, he filed that away in his memory for later uses. Harry licked his was from the collar bone down to the nipples, he took turns nibbling and sucking on them. Severus was so close to the edge by this point. Harry drove him wild by simply touching him. Harry then licked and kissed his was down Severus’ stomach to his belly button where he methodically circled ever so lightly letting air escape from his mouth to his the moist areas where his tongue had already been. Harry hovered there for a second and then snapped his fingers again and Severus’ pants were suddenly gone. Harry looked at the mans rock hard member and looked up at Severus’ and gave an evil grin, then licked his member like it was a lollypop. Blowing on the head after it was good and wet. Harry then picked up Severus’ penis and slid it slowly into his mouth the whole time watching Severus. Severus was watching his too, and this about did it for him again. How could he deny anything as sexy as Harry Potter. Harry’s touch was like magic on his bare skin. Skin that hadn’t been touched for year. Skin that needed to be touched. Even when it had been touch in previous year it never felt this good.

“Oh, Merlin, Harry, yes.” Severus was able to get out before Arching his back and letting his load go flying into Harry’s waiting mouth. Harry sucked at the cream viciously. He couldn’t get enough of it. The fire in Harry’s eyes was so strong now that Severus was hard again almost immediately. No one had ever had that effect on him before. Harry took Severus into his mouth again, But Severus bit his lip and pulled up gently on Harry’s ear easing him up and simply said “my turn” Harry understood immediately.

Harry laid back down next to Severus and they were giving kisses so full of lust and passion they almost hurt. Trying to get as much of the other essence as humanly possible. Severus started at Harry’s ears and sucked and nipped at Harry’s neck, Harry started thrashing about with pleasure. Severus filed that away. He then went down to the collar bone just as Harry did on him only it wasn’t as effective on Harry as it was on Severus. Severus moved down to those marvelous pinkish red nipples and went back and forth on them for a minute or two. By now Harry was growling. Severus moved down to the belly button and Harry was on the verge of screaming. This excited Severus to no end. The thought of scream of sheer pleasure almost drove him to come yet again. Severus started tugging on Harry’s pants and with a snap they were gone, thanks to Harry. Severus then took Harry into his mouth and sucked ever so lightly and making the suction stronger with each stroke, tickling the tip with his tongue. Harry was screaming now. Harry collected himself enough to look at Severus and growl “Fuck me” at him. Harry snapped and there was a jar of lubricant next to him on the bed now, Severus dipped his fingers in there, stroking Harris deliciously hard cock with one hand and circling his puckered hole with the other. Slowly Severus eased in the first finger, it wasn’t too hard since Harry was so damned excited to start with, the second and third fingers were a little more difficult, but Harry wasn’t complaining.

After a few strokes of the prostate with three fingers Severus pulled then out and placed a good deal of lubrication on his hard dick. He then mounted Harry and Harry wrapped his legs around Severus’waist. Severus used one hand to aim and one to hold himself up, when his tip was at the entrance, Harry squealed with lust and excitement. He looked at Severus who was looking at him for concent and Harry nodded his consent to Severus, Severus slowly pushed into the wonderfully tight place in Harry’s body. Both Harry and Severus were screaming now, both with pleasure. Severus had gotten all the way in and was now pulling out again, and pushing his way back into the warmth of the cavity he had entered. Harry was thrashing about wildly now, and Severus had to literally hold him down.. This excited them both more then they expected. Severus kept up with his steady pace and then removed one of his hands and started moving it down towards Harry’s member. Harry watched with such lust in his eyes he didn’t even look like Harry anymore. He looked like soex cex crazed monster. Severus kept up his rythm and soon he could feel Harry on the brink of an orgasm. Severus made sure his hand and his cock were moving at the same time. Two strokes later Harry came and Severus followed. When all throbbing and twitching was done, Severus pulled out and rolled over next to Harry pulled him into a hug and then relaxed to a cuddle.

“Harry, that was I have to say the best I have ever had. Who taught you all that stuff? You were absolutely perfect.” Severus was amazed at how his body felt when he had been making love to Harry.

“Severus, no one taught me anything. I was a virgin until a few minutes ago.” Harry giggled and pulled himself into Severus chest. “I feel sticky” Snap, everything was clean again and boxers on both men were put back on with either one of them moving from their current position. “I like the amplified power of this house. Too bad I can’t use it outside the house. Oh well” Harry said as he yawned. Harry was very sleepy after all that and was just about to fall asleep when he felt the need to say something.“Severus.” The very tired voice said so quietly it almost wasn’t heard.

“Hmm?” Severus answered quite dreamily as well, he was tired from that little bit of exersise. He was now combing his fingers through Harry’s hair again, and Harry was now tracing patterns on his chest

“I love you“ Harry said in almost a mutter, he was so close to being asleep.. Severus however was awake enough to hear it and his eyes shot wide open. He did continue to stroke Harry’s hair, he didn’t think Harry was waiting for a reply and a minute Later he knew he wouldn’t have heard it as very soft snores and contented moans were leaving Harry’s mouth.

“I love you too, Harry.” Whispered the potions master to the man who lay asleep in his arms. Severus knew that Harry liked him, a lot, be he never would have thought that Harry loved him. They would have time to discuss it, they still had 5 days left there, at least. Harry didn’t know how long he wantedstaystay at Godric’s hollow, and Severus said he would stay as long as Harry wanted him too.


******Chapter 6

The next morning found smiles on both Severus and Harry’s faces. Harry hugged him and kissed him good morning. Severus kissed back. They both started their intimate things again, Harry tracing patterns on Seveand and Severus combing through Harry’s unruly hair with his fingers. Both were in thought this morning. Neither one wanted it to end. They were both happier then they had ever been in their lives at this very moment.

Their robes were cleaned pressed and ready to be worn. Harry looked, Bishy must have made him a new one. The ones hanging up were a different shade of green, a little darker. They both heard a small pop and looked up and breakfast was on the table ready and steaming.

“I don’t think I can get used to that. Food just popping up as soon as I am awake enough to feel like eating, it’s just too weird.” Harry said and got up and began to dress. “Are you going to do some more research on the potions work my dad started?” Severus stretched and got up himself and was dressing.

“Yes, if you don’t mind. You know me too well Harry. I love doing my potions. If I am doing that what will you be doing?”

“Today Severus, I am going shopping. I need some new shoes. Do you need anything while I am out? Or do you want to come with me? I shouldn’t be gone too long, and it would give you a break this afternoon.” Harry said kind of shruggingly, he didn’t mind if Severus came with him or not. He knew the potions master loved his potions too much.

“If it’s alright, I’ll stay here and do the research, it really is nearly complete. I don’t think I need anything, everything here is more then enough. Thank you tho” Se” Severus was now at the table eating and reading the paper, nothing of real importance was in there. There was a history of the house, but still no one had linked it to Godric Gryffindor. Severus and Harry were glad about that. Not too much attention to be paid about that.

Harry heard a ticking at the window and saw Errol, the Weasley family owl. He shook his head, the owl really should be dead by now but still wasn’t. Harry opened the window with a wave of his hand and Errol flew over and flopped onto the table in a pile of feather. Harry shook his head and passed a piece of bacon in front of Errol. Harry then took off the parchment that was attached to his leg. Harry unrolled it and read it.

Dear Harry,

We hope all is well with you. We saw in the daily prophet that you rebuilt the house. If you need anything, anything at all don’t hesitate to ask.

The Entire Weasley Family.

Harry had a brilliant idea. An evil smirk crossed his face and Severus raised an eyebrow.

“Elrod?” With a pop a house-elf with glasses popped into the room.

“Yes, my lord, how can I be of service to you?” Elrod bowed deeply to Harry. Harry simply rolled his eyes, and Severus let a small giggle escape him.

“I would like to host a dinner party this Saturday night. Arthur Weasley and his entire family are invited as well as Hermione Granger and her parents. Also Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall are to be invited as well. Dinner will be promptly at 7 and one of the sitting rooms ready for coffee afterwards.”

“Will there be a special menu for dinner, or just the typical rack of lamb?” Elrod asked.

“Rack of lamb will be fine. Thank you Elrod. Oh, Severus here will be joining us as well. Also please invite my godfather and his friend Remus Lupin as well. Thank you.”

“It shall be done sir” with a pop Elrod was gone.

“Harry what are you planning?” Severus asked.

“Are you deaf, I am planning a dinner party, I could sworn I said everything loud enough for you to hear.” Harry smiled.

“Harry you know what I meant and you know it.” Severus stated, getting slightly aggitated.

“Honestly Severus, I’m not planning anything but a dinner party. I want to see my friends and family. That’s all, I promise. I want to share with them what I have and most of all I want them to see how happy I am.” Harry had a look on his face that Severus knew Harry either wouldn’tl hil him or he was being completely honest. Severus dropped it. They both finished eating and Harry scooped up Errol. He took him up to the fourth floor to the owlery and placed him on a soft blanketh soh some food and water. A house-elf popped up and shook his head.

“This is a very old owl master Potter, I do not know if he will make it. I will do my best to heal him master Potter.” The old house-elf said.

“Who are you might I ask”

“Of course you may sir. My name is Gello. I am the owl care taker. That is all I deal with are the owls. The house has seven owls that live here and are members of the house. This snowy owl is the newest”

“Yes Gello, that is my personal owl, her name is Hedwig.” Hedwig looked up and saw Harry and flew over to him and sat on his shoulder and nipped at his ear affectionately. “Are they taking good care of you girl?” Hedwig hooted softly in his ear and nodded to him. “Good, that makes me happy. Gello, when Elrod comes to mail invitations can you make sure that he sends Hedwig to Remus Lupin and Sirius Black please? They will not accept an owl they don’t know.” Gello nodded. “Thank you Gello.”Harry turned and left and Hedwig flew from his shoulders and landed on a perch and began pecking at the food in the dish attached to it.
Harry went downstairs and got ready for his trip to Diagon Alley. He had some Galleons left on him from his last withdrawl from Gringott’s. He pocketed those and made sure he had his key for the vault there just in case he needed more money. He found Severus already knee deep in research. “Are you sure you don’t need anything? I’m on my way out now.” Severus looked up from his books.

“I’m sure I don’t need anything thank you for asking. Will you be back in time for lunch Harry?”

“Oh, I think I can be back by then, are you that used to me being around all the time already?” Harry smiled. Severus blushed slightly. Harry turned to walk out of the room stopping briefly with his hand on the door knob, turned to look ay Severus and simply stated

“I meant what I said last night to you.” and closed the door quickly behind him and apparated from that point to Diagon Alley. Harry went immediately to the shoe shop and order a pair of s shs shoes to be delivered by Saturday and two pairs of everyday shoes. Once Harry was done with those he shrunk them and put them in his pocket. He proceeded to go to Ollivander’s.

When he got to Ollivanders, Mr. Ollivander was no where to be seen. “Mr. Ollivander?” Harry called out, not yelling but loud enough so he was sure he was heard.

“Ah Mr. Potter what brings you here today? Your wand is in good condition is it not?” Harry pulled out his wand, it was well cared for and polished nicely.

“As you see my wand is just fine thank you. I have come to ask a favor of you that I am sure you might find entertaining.” Harry said and Mr. Ollivander raised an eyebrow to this.

“Oh really, well do tell.” Mr. Ollivander placed his hands folded together on the counter waiting for Harry to say what he was going to say.

“Well, as I am sure you have seen in the Daily Prophet, I have rebuilt Godric’s Hollow. I have also gained access to the family vaults.” Harry started and was slightly cut off by Mr. Ollivander.

“By family I assume you mean Godric Gryffindor and his decendants. Yes, Mr. Potter I know your family oh too well. What is it you would like me to do with the wands and staves in the vaults?” Mr. Ollivander was sometimes too smart for his own good.

“Well, I was thinking it you felt up to it sometime you would come addraddress the wands and staves, as to whom had which wand and staff. I do know a couple of them were made by their owner Godric’s being one of them, but the rest you should remember who you sold them too. They all appear to be your handy work.” Harry said smiling at Mr. Ollivander.

“Why Mr. Potter, it would be an honor and a privilege to do such a thing for the Gryffendor family line. Thank you for asking me. I accept. How will Sunday be? It’s the only day the shop is closed and I would love to look at the custom made wands.” Mr. Ollivander was excited. He absolutely loved his craft. Just as Severus did, neither man could get enough of the craft they each were the master of.

“Sunday would be perfect. I look forward to seeing you at say, 11, then we shall have a nice lunch before heading to the rooms.”

“Sounds perfect Mr. Potter. I can’t wait.” Harry shook the mans hand and walked out of the store.
Harry was just about done with all his shopping, he was just walking around window shopping when something caught his eye. Harry stepped into the shop and he asked the store keep to help him with the object he had seen in the window.

“What is this and where did it come from?” Harry asked pointing to a ring that looked familiar to him.
“From what I am told it originally came from Godric Gryffindor himself. It is a ring of invisbility. It makes the wearer invisible.” The store keeper told him.

“Well how much are you asking for it? I will buy it even though it rightfully belongs in my family.” Harry stated matter of factly.

“If you can prove your a Gryffindor by blood, I am sure the owner will give you the ring. But he is asking 150 Galleon for it.” Harry nodded and looked at the ring. If it had in fact belonged to Godric then he knew it had to be charmed for the bloodline.

Harry closed his eyes held out his hand and the ring danced on his hand. A spew of light came out of the ring that said Gryffindor heir in red letters with gold trim. The shop keeper called for the owner who wasthe the back doing some paperwork. He came running out to see what the yelling was about. When he saw what was happening with the ring the shop owner told Harry it was his to have. Harry was the rightful owner.

“If you don’t mind, please don’t mention I am the heir to Gryffindor. I really don’t like the attention. If you keep this secret I can promise you all the Gryffindor heir business for the future since I am the last of the heirs.” The shop keep and the owner both agreed to it immediately. Harry promptly left the shop and apparated back to the house.

Severus was waiting for him and quiet impatient about it as well. “Where were you, I was getting worried about you.” Severus stated before Harry had a chance to say anything. “And what did you mean you meant what you said last night?”

Harry smiled at Severus. “First off I’d have been home thirty minutes aut Iut I had to prove something to get something. Second, I meant it when I said I love you last night. Anything else or can we go have lunch now?” Harry asked walking by Severus and kissing him on the cheek. Severus was dumbfounded by what Harry said.

They got into the dining room and lunch was waiting for them. “What did you mean you had to prove something to get something?” Severus asked while starting to eat his soup.

Harry pulled the ring out of his pocket and showed Severus. “I had to prove I am the Gryffindor heir to get this back into the family. It was in one of the stores on Diagon Alley. Go ahead, put it on.” Harry pushed it towards Severus and he took it. He looked at it and slipped it on his finger. Severus disappeared. Harry smiled. “So how do you like one of my families treasures? I am glad it’s back where it belongs.”
