Chapter 1: Relaspe
Chapter One
“Mr Potter do you think you can focus on the task that I have assigned for you?” Snape sneered at him as Harry just stared into space. He felt numb this was one of those rare moments his past crept up on him and consumed him. “Harry?” Severus voice had now taken a concerned tone.
Harry just felt claustrophobic on every side of him Severus had him surrounded by boys. Everyone of them were bigger than him naturally and built enough to over power him if they found it in themselves to do so. Being surrounded like this reminded him of the time his uncle Vernon took him to one of his 'friends' parties were they each had their way with him.
“Harry?” Snape asked again a little firmer but still gently.. when he received no response he turned his attention to the class. “All of you out of your seats and wait outside of the classroom.” He snapped at them “Draco I need you to go to my office and grab a Calming Draught. Now!” he bellowed when he noticed none of the students seemed to want to move. They all but jumped from their seats when he snapped at them to leave the classroom. Hermione seemed a little reluctant to leave Harry but the look in Snape's eye left no room for her to argue with him.
“What's the matter with him Sev?” Draco asked when he reappeared with the Calming Draught.
“No matters I can disclose Draco. Go wait with the others. I will let you know when you all can come back in.” Severus said as he pulled Harry into his arms and laid in him on one of the counter tops he had cleared off.
“Will he be alright?”
“Talk to me later Draco I have to take care of Harry. I want you to wait outside with the others.” Severus told him. His eyes never left Harry as he pulled Harry back into his arms so he could pour the Draught into his mouth.
As Draco was leaving the classroom he glanced back at his Uncle. He had never seen him so gentle with anyone as he was with Harry. After giving the Gryffindor the Draught Harry broke down in tears. The last things Draco saw before the door closed was Severus pulling the weeping Harry into his arms.

“Shh..It's okay Harry.” Severus told him as he brushed the hair out of Harry's face as he gently rocked him.
“I'm sorry Severus. It all just came back.” Harry said as he tried to blink back his tears.
“What triggered it Harry?”
“You had me surrounded Sev. To many boys.” Harry said burying his face in his “uncle's” shoulder.
“What did it remind you of Harry, begin surrounded by those boys?”
“The day my uncle Vernon would take me to one of his 'friends' parties. He would let them do whatever they wanted to me.” Harry said sobbing in Severus shoulder. “Oh God, I thought I was past this.”
“This is the first time in a long time Harry.” Severus said kissing Harry's head. “You've been doing quite well so don’t let this bother you.”
“I'll try Severus. Do you think I can go back to my room. I don’t think I could go to anymore classes.”
“You can use my office to floo there.”
“Thanks Sev. And please don’t tell Remus he doesn’t need me adding more stress on him.”
“He's not going to be happy with either of us if we don’t tell him about this. And I really don’t want him to be putting me on the couch.” Severus said with a grimace.
“He is all the way at Grimmauld Place and you stay here so you don’t have to sleep on the couch. And this pregnancy is harder on him than the other two. Please don’t tell him, I'm fine.”
“You aren’t going to hurt yourself if I let you go back by yourself, are you?”
“I won't.”
“Promise me Harry. I don’t want to find you bleeding out on the floor of your bathroom again. You talked about stress on Remus you don’t know how bad that stress got when I had to tell him you were at St. Mungos for all the blood loss.”
“I didn’t mean to cut that deep but I promised the both of you that I'd never do it again.”
“I know you did Harry, but I wanted to make sure you remembered that promise. Go get some rest and I’ll make sure that you teachers know that you won't be coming to their classes today.”
“Thanks Sev.”
It had been almost eight months since Harry's last slip up. And even that one had some distance between the one before it. He had learned how to deal with most of his traumatic childhood but it crept up on him sometimes. He even got past it enough to have had an active sex life before the lab accident in his sixth year. Now he was practically celibate. Mostly because he was waiting to give himself to the one person he had a crush on since his fifth year.

“Severus are you going to tell what happened with Potter now?” Draco asked his Godfather once the class had emptied out.
“Draco these are private matters which I’m sure Potter doesn’t want shared with this nemesis.”
“Cut the crap Sev. You know that Potter and I have mended fences for you and Remus' sake. We may not be exactly friends but we are civil. And this past summer you had him stay with us. I can only imagine that he will be returning once we graduate. I think I have the right to know what is going on just in case he freaks out while staying with us and you and Remus are not around to help him.”
“If we aren’t around Draco I doubt there is anything you could do to help Potter. What Potter is experiencing was because of his traumatic childhood. The things that boy has had to endure are monstrous. I wouldn’t wish that treatment upon my worse enemy. If Potter ever goes through one of his episodes and neither Remus nor myself is around do not leave him alone and send an house elf for us immediately. And under no circumstances are you to touch him, that would only make matters worse.”
“Why wont you tell me exactly is the matter with him? What happened to him? You know that I wouldn’t spread rumors about him, he is practically family.”
“Because it isn’t my secret to tell Draco. I have work to attend to so you will have to find some time later to talk to me on any other subject other than Potter.” Severus told him which was clearly a dismissal but Draco didn’t immediately respond to it.
“For all you know Severus I could help him figure out a way for him to get through his problems.” Draco told his uncle before he left
