Harry ventured out of his room to find Snape had yet again vanished before he woke up. The man had been avoiding him
ever since...the \'incident\'.
xx Flashback from Harry\'s POVxx
Harry stepped out of the bathroom, a large cloud of steam trailing after him. There was nothing like a scalding hot shower
to calm him down. He stretched lazily; enjoying the newfound freedom of being naked without worrying about some pervert was
spying on him. He ran a towel over his sopping wet hair and tossed it onto the bed. At that exact moment, the door swung open
and Harry reflexively swung round to see who it was.
Sev: AHHHHHHH!
Harry: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Sev: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
After quite a lot of screaming it finally struck Harry to cover himself up, and he reached hurriedly for his towel, wrapping
it around his waist. His professor looked away, and almost seemed to be blushing, though it was hard to tell with his complexion.
\"Er...the, um...Dumbledore...wants to see y-TALK, to you...out there...I\"
Harry blinked. He had never in his life seen the man so flustered.
\"Uh…” Severus retreated, pulling the door shut behind him and leaving Harry very confused.
xx End Flashback xx
Harry sighed, sitting down at the kitchen bar table and pouring a bowl of cereal. He didn\'t understand why it was such
a big deal. I mean, shouldn\'t HE be the one all freaked out by it? He was the one who was walked in on. He was the one who had
bad experiences with creepy old dudes walking in on him. Harry wasn\'t overly bothered by it, other than thinking it was creepy
that his teacher had seen him naked. And THEN the man had hid in his room for, like, 10 minutes, and refused to come out.
\"He must really hate me.\" The BWL pondered, taking a bite of his Cheerios.

Severus growled as the entire bottle of cockroaches fell into his potion, causing it to turn bright pink, and the cauldron
to shake ominously. That was the third potion he\'d ruined within the last hour. He couldn\'t get Potter out of his thoughts. The
boy was taunting him. He\'d been avoiding him ever since it had happened and still, the mere thought of Potter made him feel...odd.
A weird sort of fluttery feeling he\'d never felt before.
\"I really hate that kid,\" he hissed, dumping the cauldron.
oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
xx Searing pain. Ripping, tearing, and burning. xx
Severus awoke with a start, hand flying to his blackened brand. He gritted his teeth and pulled off the covers, cursing the dark
lord’s fascination with thirty odd, half-asleep men, raping and pillaging. Rubbing his arm, he stumbled half blind through his room,
trying to find his ceremonial clothing. All his graces seemed to leave him after one am, and until he\'d had his morning cup of pepper
up potion, he was useless. He changed hurriedly, putting on his mask and flooing to Malfoy Manor, his lord’s latest haunt.
Stepping out of the fireplace, he was surprised to see he was one of the few there. Voldemort smirked, looking at him pointedly,
and immediately the Potions Master fell to his knees, muttering words of reverence, and kissing the hem of his robes.
\"Your mask is not necessary tonight, Severus.\" The Dark lord said from his throne, and Snape rose and took his place next to
Lucius. Severus nodded, removing the white form from his face and tried to look at the repulsive serpent with silent awe.
\"I hear you have information about Potter\'s whereabouts?\" Voldemort asked, looking pleased.
Severus\' eyes darted quickly to the blonde beside him. Damn that Malfoy.
\"Yes my lord. Dumbledore had me remove him from his Aunt\'s home and relocate him to the school,\" he answered obediently.
\"He knowingly removed him from his greatest protection? And what led to the old man risking so much?\" Severus frowned.
\"His...Uncle, sir.\" He said stiffly.
Voldemort chuckle, \"I see. Not so safe after all. We can use this. Who’s watching the boy?\"
\"I am. He\'s living in my quarters.\"
\"Perfect.\"

Severus gave a sigh of relief as he stepped out of his fireplace.
\"Merlin, I need a drink.\" He muttered, heading out into the living room. He had downed two brandies before he noticed the noise
coming from Potter\'s room. He tried to ignore it, but the cries became louder, and he grumbled, setting down his drink and rapping
lightly on the door. \"Potter, shut up.\"
Suddenly the muffled cries of a nightmare turned into screams of pain and Severus started, hurrying inside, afraid Potter
was being murdered.
The boy was thrashing in his bed, hands clenched, forehead drenched with sweat and screaming a scream the older man
knew well. How the hell is he feeling Cruciatus? He thought, rushing over to the bed, and trying to shake the boy awake.
\"Potter. Potter wake up.\"
Bright green eyes shot open and Harry reflexively clung to him, shaking, and eyes full of fear.
Snape stiffened, and awkwardly rubbed his back.
\"Potter...was that Cruciatus?\" he asked urgently.
The BWL nodded, still feeling the phantom pain.
\"How?\"
\"Our mind connection. I always feel it, ever since...\"he trailed off pulling away.
\"Ever since what?\"
\"The graveyard.\"
oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Severus paced back and forth in his office, furiously confused. Potter was feeling curses that weren\'t being cast on his.
Severus was feeling...he didn\'t know what he was feeling. Stupid Potter being all...broken. He cursed as his experimental potion
exploded. He took a small black notebook out and crossed out wormwood. He paused, that was it. He would just treat this
\"Potter Problem\"as he would a failed potion. He quickly cleared off his desk and opened his book to a fresh page.
xx AN: -----word----- means it is written and then crossed out. xx
Reasons I hate Potter.
1. He looks like his father.
2. He is a rude, selfish, ---Spoiled brat--- , GRYFFINDOR
3. Horrible at Potions
4. Reminds me of past.
5. Ruins Order spy work.
6. Student.
7. Too immature.
---8. Stupid God mutt.---
8. Relations.
9. Half blood
10. …messy hair.

\"Do you always feel his curses?\"
\"No. Only when he\'s particularly emotional.\"
xx furious scribbling xx
\"How strong is it?\"
\"Depends on how emotional he is. If he\'s really pissed then it\'s as strong as it would be if he were casting it on me.\"
xx furious scribbling xx
Treating Potter like an experiment seemed to be working. Moreover, perhaps if he fixed him he could actually stand to be
around him. He\'d taken it upon himself to fix this Curse problem. It was very puzzling, something he\'d never seen before. He couldn\'t
yet comprehend how the dark lord passed someone else\'s pain through himself, into Harry.
The visions and emotions were simpler. Point \'A\' to Point \'B\'. But this equation of Curse to random guy, to Harry , through Voldemort,
made no sense. Voldemort didn\'t physically feel the pain and Harry had no mind link to the people who did feel it. So how did it work?
\"Did you feel it the day the Dig-\" He stopped, noting Harry\'s look and corrected himself. \"-Cedric, was murdered?\"
\"That curse wasn\'t used on him. And Voldemort didn‘t even curse him. He wasn‘t whole yet.\" the smaller boy said stiffly,
looking uncomfortable.
\"But did you feel any pai-\"
\"Not physical pain, no.\"
Severus nodded, jotting it down.
\"Right. I\'ll try to come up with something. Let me know the next time it happens.\"
Harry nodded, standing up and going to leave when Snape thought of something.
\"No one else was there when I left. Who was he-\"
\"Malfoy.\" Harry murmured.
\"Lucius? What did he-\"
\"Not Lucius.\" the Gryffindor said softly, closing the door to his room.
