Chapter Twenty
Careful What You Wish For
By Coco Bebo aka EternusCaries
Chapter Twenty
Sitting in Potions class Harry couldn't help but feel disappointed that he was paired with Ron today and not with Draco. He never thought he would be one of those people who wanted to spend every waking second with someone but now that him and Draco had taken the next step in their relationship he could barely stand not talking to him. But Draco was currently paired with Millicient for whatever concoction they were making today.
“What the hell Harry? I know that both of us are a bit daft when it comes to potions but even I know how to follow instructions.”
Harry blinked a couple of times before looking back into the potion which was now thick and black, “I stirred too much didn't I?”
Ron just nodded sadly as he looked at their ruined potion and then back to Harry, “well, at least Snape won't be surprised by it.” He smiled a goofy smile and Harry had to return it.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Severus wasn't surprised by the disgusting thick, gooey black liquid that Harry managed to make out of a simple hair growth potion. What he was surprised was when Draco had managed to mess his own potion up, something that Millicient had desperately tried to fix but couldn't.
Draco was his best student and he had never botched a potion before, but as he watched both Draco and Harry and noticed their tentative glasses toward each other almost every other second he frowned as he assumed the reason why. He may have underestimated their new found infatuation with each other and tried to wrap his head around what was more than likely true. Harry and Draco were in a romantic relationship with each other, hiding it poorly which was yet again odd for Draco. Usually when Draco wanted something kept secret he was a stone wall and gave no indication.
He shook his head as he sat down behind his desk and looked at the wall. He had never seen Draco so vulnerable before and honestly he couldn't think of a worse time for Draco to fall head over heels in love. He also couldn't think of a worse person than to do it with none other than Harry Potter.
He sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose before turning his attention back to his class, “I want 18 inches of parchment on the properties of this potion, Draco please come here.”
He couldn't help but enjoy the puzzled look that Harry shot to his friend Weasley then to Draco himself. Severus watched as the class packed their things and filed out of the room, Harry being the last one out saying something to Draco on his way.
“Was their a problem sir?” Draco stood in front of him now and he didn't really know where to begin.
“What's on your mind Draco?”
“Nothing si...”
“This is the first time I've had to give you an uncompleted grade Draco, don't patronize me by saying nothing.”
“Well what do you think is on my mind?”
“I think that you and Potter need to remind yourselves that you both have enough problems this year as it is without staring at each other like star crossed lovers!” Severus stood up and he could tell that Draco was shocked but he quickly recovered.
“My personal life is of no matter to you sir.”
“Be that as it may you need to be more careful, Potter is an idiot Draco and he dives into danger head first any time he can!”
Draco shook his head and hoisted his book bag on his shoulder, “if this is all sir then I'm leaving, I'm aware of Harry's flaws and I'm not a child.”
Severus watched as Draco left the room and rolled his eyes when he saw that Potter was waiting outside for him. He hadn't meant for the discussion to go the way it had but it had to be pointed out to Draco. Severus didn't care who his godson was having sexual relations with, he didn't care if Draco was homosexual, but why? Why did it have to be Harry Potter?
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Narcissa smiled as she watched the 11 year old girl walk out of the door. She had came to the medical wing because of the nasty acne spell that had been cast on her and after Narcissa lifted it they talked for a few minutes about how hard it is starting school. She had never thought she would enjoy working, especially in medicine but as it turns out she was enjoying it quite nicely.
“You're such a natural with children Narcissa, I'm glad to see that Draco had at least one good parent a home.”
She smiled at Poppy who had quickly become one of her friends, “thank you. I always wanted to have more children, but it just never happened. Now I'm surrounded by them all day and honestly I love it.”
“I'm glad that you are enjoying your stay here Narcissa.”
She turned around and smiled when she saw Albus, her smile slipping off her features when she noticed the look in his eyes. “What's wrong Albus?”
“It seems that I've managed to injure myself on my last outing. It's nothing to worry over though. Do you have the medicine Poppy?”
Poppy handing him a vial and before Narcissa could ask what happened Poppy was pulling his sleeve up. His hand appeared to be shrinking, his ring finger was black and it seemed to be spreading to the rest of his hand.
“Albus! What happened?”
He smiled sadly at her and winced slightly as Poppy started to apply ointment on the area, “I'm afraid I can't go into specifics, let's just say that there are some things that shouldn't be messed with.”
Poppy pulled his sleeve back down and wiped her hands clean, “Albus, you need to realize that you are getting on in years. I know that you think he's too young and I agree, but you have to realize that it's him that will have to face Voldemort in the end.”
Narcissa's eyes widened, “Harry? Poppy he's just a child he should be kept as far away from that man as possible! And Albus, if you are messing around with dark artifacts you need to stop immediately, they are dangerous at best and deadly at worst!”
They looked at her for a moment before sharing a look themselves, “thank you for your concern Narcissa and yes Harry is much too young. Thank you for the medicine Poppy but I'm afraid I have an important matter to deal with in the office.”
They watched as he left and before Narcissa could say anything to Poppy she shook her head, “he won't tell me what he's gotten himself into either, I just know that he's been cursed and that me or Severus can't stop it spreading through his body. He's really done a number on himself this time...”
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
“What did Snape want with you?”
Draco sighed as Harry walked with him to lunch, “apparently he doesn't approve of our relationship.”
“What? Why? Everyone else on the staff seems to be pleased that we've become friens.”
Draco shook his head, “he knows that we are more than that, apparently we can't keep from making puppy dog eyes at each other.”
Harry blushed as he shrugged, “well...that's alright isn't it? We won't try to hide it or anything if we decide to make it official will we? And why does he care who you are snogging?”
“He's my godfather Harry and no I'm not ashamed of us so if we do decide to go together I won't hide it. Severus seems to be under the impression that you are an idiotic Gryffindor who can't help but throw yourself into danger. Which you are, but we're in this together and I'm pretty sure I can be the logical part of your brain when you try to do things.”
Harry scoffed and they were silent for a moment, “have you noticed that Pansy has been following us everywhere today?”
Draco raised an eyebrow at Harry, “of course, I'm surprised you have though.”
Harry bumped into his shoulder playfully making him stumble a little, “I might be an idiotic Gryffindor as you put it but I've learned how to be observant.”
Draco nodded and they walked the rest of the way in silence parting once they got to the Great Hall and going to their respective tables.
