Summary:
Based on the song, Anywhere by Evanescence. Harry knows he and Severus
can’t be together for obvious reasons. He’s a student and a hero for saving
the wizarding world, not to mention he’s expected to have a “normal” life which
means he’s expected to marry some nice witch and have a few kids. Severus
is his teacher and a spy and an ex-Death Eater. Everyone opposes their
relationship and Harry just wants to be happy with the one he loves. So
where do they go, the muggle world, and
Reviewers:
Nicoletta- It’s a role reversal with Severus as the student and Harry as the
teacher but it’s also a learning experience for them both.
Deadroses-
Thank you. I was going for sweet
considering my other stories tend to get darker as they progress.

Seamus walked downstairs and out to the Head Girl’s room so he and
Hermione could go to breakfast together.
He gave the password and entered the spacious room.
“ ‘Mione? You ready
to go down to breakfast?”
Hermione clipped back her curly hair and smoothed out the
wrinkles in her floral sundress. “Let’s
go.” She gave him a quick peck on the
lips and slipped her hand in his as they made their way down to the Great Hall

“No, I don’t even think he came in last night.”

Professor McGonagall sat patiently, or rather, as patiently
as one can sit when a student goes missing during the night, waiting for the
Headmaster. The Gryffindor Head of House
had gone in search of Harry when she didn’t see him at breakfast and noticed
his belongings were gone and his bed was made.
She had noticed a change in Harry’s behaviour a few days prior but
passed it off as anxiety.
The door opened and the four students entered following

mister Potter has gone missing.” Minerva
stated.
“I know, Minerva.
Mister Malfoy came running in during breakfast and brandished this
letter,” He handed her Severus’ letter, “which he found on young Severus’ desk
along with this addressed to you three.”
He handed the three Gryffindors the letter from Harry.

you has been an experience I will never forget.
I’m glad you finally came to sort of accept my relationship with Severus
even though you kept trying to set me up with people a year after Sev and I
first started dating. Be good to
Hermione.
Severus and I have left. I had to
leave. I was tired of everyone telling
me that I didn’t know what I was getting in to and the expectations everyone
had for me. I just want to be happy but
I can’t be happy with people breathing down my neck and always telling me what
to do all the time. Let’s face it, if I
had stayed the press and God only knows who else, would have driven Severus and
I apart. Don’t bother trying to find or
contact us. We will contact you when we
want to be found. Give Sirius, Remus,
and the Weasleys my love. Good luck at
graduation tomorrow and I love you all.
I’ll see you around.
When they finished reading the letter, Hermione had a look
of utter disappointment on her face. Ginny
and Seamus were plain old shock and Draco was confused.

“The truth, dear.
They would find out eventually.”
She replied. The room went dead
silent and then the quiet blonde in the corner spoke.
“I blame you, Headmaster.
You allowed this to happen. You

relationship with my godfather.
“Shut up!” Ginny shouted, nearly ready to launch herself at
the blonde boy and throttle him.
