So this is Love

The Malfoys reappeared in the girls’ bathroom and watched as everyone tried to send a blasting curse to the sink. Fawkes flew over to Albus and they disappeared, everyone just stared at the place where he was.

Lucius brought everyone’s attention to him “What are you doing?”

Narcissa and the twins ran up to them, both checking their prospective partners for damage. The twins were the first to break the silence. “Where were__ you and __ what happened?”

“We were in Salazar Slytherin’s quarters and Harry gave us a present.” Draco said then kissed the twins chastely on the lips.

Lucius nodded and turned to his wife not bothering to hide his smile. Narcissa eyed them obliviously awaiting an answer. Lucius smirked. “The rooms were gorgeous, done in warm woods and light greens.” He rolled up his right sleeve. “The library was full of books on potions, light and dark magic, and his personal journals. There were also a lot of books in what looked like parseltounge. Harry said we can go back later.” Lucius rolled up his left sleeve.

Narcissa was watching him carefully something seemed off. She saw Lucius roll up his right sleeve then his left. She grabbed his left arm, and stared. She quickly turned to her son and pulled his left sleeve up. Upon seeing the clear arm she pulled him into a hug, tears rolling down her face.

Lucius pulled her back to him, after she let go of Draco. The twins pulled Draco back and were eyeing his arm. Since Draco and Lucius were found out, Voldemort had been using it to torture them. The twins were always trying to take care of Draco. George and Fred ran their finger against the smooth clear skin, getting a small giggle out of Draco. George quickly pulled Draco into devour his mouth pulling away to breathe. Fred did the same, leaving a slightly dazed and out of breath Draco, clinging to his neck.

Severus was extremely happy for his friends, but he wanted his mate. He started pacing and glaring at the sink. Lucius saw this and had to stop himself from laughing. “Sev, I don’t think Salazar’s quarters would be in the girls’ bathroom.”

Hermione turned to him. “Actually it’s the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets. Where are the quarters and how do we get down there?”

Everyone turned to Lucius who shook his head. “I don’t know where it was, we were kind of in a daze at the time. But I know he is sleeping, taking off the marks took a lot out of him. Actually, Cissa, before he went of to sleep he told us that he was going to open Rowena’s quarters and asked if we wanted to stay there. He said you and Draco were her other heirs so he thought it only fair to give us her quarters. They are right by the DADA room and the hospital wing.”

Narcissa’s eyes widened at the mention of staying in her quarters. She nodded her head, then turned to the rest of the group. “This has been too strenuous. I’m going to go lie down.” Lucius followed her and they left.

Draco turned to Severus who was still glaring at the sink. “Sev, I don’t think the quarters where down there. He’s asleep he said he would talk to everyone tomorrow. Go down to your quarters and get some sleep, ok?” He turned to the twins, “Removing the mark pulled a lot of energy out of both of us, so I am going to go lie down.” He kissed both the twins on the cheek and left.

“I thought that Dumbledore said ‘the heir of six’ had the Malfoys. Does that mean Harry is the heir, and the heir of whom?” Everyone turned to Hermione as she started talking. When she noticed everyone looking at her she blushed and mumbled an apology.

Remus looked thoughtful. “He did say the heir of six, I’m sure Harry will explain tomorrow. We’ve been here for a few hours and it’s kind of late now so I am going to go to bed. See you all tomorrow.”

Remus and the twins left, leaving Ron and Hermione with Severus. Hermione watched Severus for a few minutes. “Professor, if he is asleep, it’s not going to do you any good to stay here. Why don’t you go get some sleep? Harry still doesn’t know that you’re his mate, so he doesn’t know that you’re still worried about him. He said he would talk to everyone tomorrow.”

Severus nodded seeing the logic and turned to go to his quarters, he stopped and turned at the door. “Thank you Ms. Granger, if either of you see him tomorrow please don’t tell him about being my mate. I think it’s something I should do on my own.” Hermione and Ron smiled and nodded.

Ron turned to Hermione. “Come on same thing goes for you.” He grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the bathroom.
