Somewhere

Just an itty bitty one
i've already started on the next one though and you should all be grateful because i'm writing this with one hand!
i've screwed up my shoulder and i can't move my right arm... although it does mean i get the day offa college!
nother one for you soon hopefully although in general the chapters start to get longer from here so it'll take me longer to write them.

DON'T FORGET THE MAILING LIST

He woke slowly, layer by layer. What woke him first was the irritating bit of hair that kept tickling his nose. Next he become of a familiar smell, then the warm body next to him shifted and everything rushed back to him and his eyes snapped open, only to meet a dark, sleepy onyx gaze. Letting out a yelp he rolled over and fell out of bed with a thud.

“Ow,” he moaned. Oh dear Merlin. What was he doing in bed with Severus? Not that he really minded, he’d have done anything to get him there but not like this. He didn’t even remember falling asleep. Suddenly a head popped over the side of the bed and looked at him in concern.

“Are you ok?” Severus asked in a sleep roughened voice that sent shivers down Harry’s spine.

All he could manage to do was squeak and nod his head.

“In that case either go away or get back into the bed. I, personally, am still tired,” came a reply as the head disappeared back over the edge.

Getting up onto his knees, Harry stopped and gawped at the man who was lying on his bed. Flat out on his stomach, one arm under the pillow, the other wrapped around it, nose buried deep in its midst, he was a tempting sight for sure. An eye cracked open to look at him before shutting once more.

“Well? Make your mind up and stop gawping like a dying fish. Get into the bed.”

And not knowing what else to do, he did exactly that. Inching in beside the other man he put as much distance between them as he possibly could or at least he did until an arm snaked out and pulled him flush against a very warm, very firm side. Biting back a moan he settled down. This was heaven. Who cared if they both had their clothes on? It was still nice.

“Don’t say anything and just go back to sleep. Feet to yourself as well, they’re ice cold,” the other man muttered into the pillow.

“Ok,” he squeaked.

Lying as still as possible he daren’t even breathe. Maybe it was a dream, his subconscious playing vicious, evil tricks on him. Finally closing his eyes he begged it to be real. After a few minutes he was sure it was though. The slow, even breathing, that wonderfully familiar smell and the warm breath tickling the back of his neck was all still there. Letting out a long breath he didn’t realise he’d been holding he relaxed fully, smiled happily and let sleep claim him once more.

Helea -- well as for creature... i wouldn't say creature... in fact technically it's not inherited but... never mind you'll find out soon enough

mis -- yay hugs and kisses!! as for inheritance like i said to healea you should find out fairly soon. in about 24 pages of my notebook in fact... so about three chapters i think

vyator -- yay for kisses and glompage and yeah sorry about the chokeage thing... it was worth it though wasn't it?

Amanda Rose -- mwuah! *smooches you* thank you for being understanding :D i'm trying to update as fast as possible but with college it can be harder

rugbygal -- glad you like it :D yeah sev is a little OC but i'm trying to keep him fairly normal. there is the odd bit where he goes weird and later when he gets loved up he'll be a bit strange but never mind. as for sirius... he's to good to not bring back! and why would anyone be suddenly ok with everything? it wouldn't happen so why write it that way... kinda gets my goat a little when people do that. thank you

never_tempt -- not that long!! this is faster than i've ever EVER updated ... well... anything! *prods you with a stick* you'll just have to be patient and hopr it's worth the wait :D
