vampires kiss




  CHAPTER ONE: Harry felt his blood run cold as the potion trickled down his
  slender almost feminine throat. As he started to drift into the blanketed
  bliss that was sleep he heard a voice off to his left. "POTTER OPEN YOUR
  EYES YOU MUST STAY AWAKE!! DO YOU HEAR ME MISTER POTTER?!" (Oh no... Not
  him please do not let it be...) "Harry please open your eyes professor
  Snape and I need to have a word with you my dear boy." Harry opened his
  eyes to meet those of Albus Dumbledore head master of Hogwarts School of
  witch craft and wizardry. "What is it professor?" the boy asked more then a
  little scared because you see the twinkle in the headmasters' eyes was
  absent and Harry Potter knew instinctively that the conversation he was
  about to have was a serious one. "I think that this can wait until we get
  up to my office my dear boy." "But head master I do not think it is wise
  for Harry to be leaving the hospital wing so soon! After all he just woke
  up after being in a comma for duration of three full weeks!" "Calm down
  Poppy dear I assure you this is in his best interest. I promise he shall be
  retuned to the hospital wing in one piece when he Severus and I have had a
  small chat with him." Seeing the look of determination on Albus's face the
  nurse knew it was pointless to prolong the argument and simply sighed
  saying `very well then head master.' Soon after Harry was dressed and
  following professors Snape and Dumbledore to the landing with the stone
  gargoyles which sprang aside upon hearing the password (Sugar quill) to
  reveal the revolving stair case that would ultimately take them inside
  Dumbledore' s office. Once inside the head master offered his usual lemon
  drop to his guests who both declined, Snape with a none to polite no and
  Harry merely shook his head in refusal. "Very well Harry this may seem an
  odd thing to ask however humor me in answering it. What is the last thing
  you remember clearly?" why is he looking at me so intently and why the
  bloody hell is my neck so stiff? "Well sir I remember learning to make a
  hair growth potion in potions on Friday and the rest is a blur I am sorry."
  Harry said feeling guilty when he saw the look of disappointment on both
  professors faces. "Professor Dumbledore sir might I ask why I woke up in
  the hospital wing, and what was that potion professor Snape was giving me
  when I woke up??" Harry inquired. Well the potion Severus was administering
  to you when you awoke is called ju due toxin. "Harry looked puzzled and
  asked where have I heard that name before?" at the answering growl both
  professor Dumbledore and Harry looked over at Snape in question. "You
  should know that name very well mister potter as you do have an essay due
  next week on that very potion and its effects on the body." It started to
  come back to Harry then , going on a Hogsmeade weekend with Ron and
  Hermione he had split from the group to go buy needed potions ingredients
  when he saw Snape being attacked. FLASHBACK Oh my god that poor man! He's
  being attacked. A woman screamed off to Harry's right. Without a thought to
  himself Harry pulled out his wand and ran to aid the unknown man. Since it
  didn't seem to him that anyone else was egger to help him. When he reached
  the battling pair he saw that the man was his potions master. Harry tripped
  the second man when he saw that he intended to stab Snape. There was once a
  time that Harry would have simply let this thing happen but he had seen
  enough death he would stop this if it was the last thing he did!! As he
  lunged in to stun the attacker he felt a sharp blow to the head and an
  intense burning siring pain in his neck before all went black... END
  FLASHBACK CHAPTER TWO: Albus could see by the look on the boys face that he
  was beginning to remember the things that had landed him in the hospital
  wing three weeks ago. "Potter do you remember what happened now?" Severus
  Snape demanded smugly. "Yes Sir but only just. That must have been quite
  some bump I received to have landed me with Madam Pomfrey for three whole
  weeks." Harry explained in an attempt to joke his tension away. Truth be
  told he was scared and the way Snape was staring at him was only making his
  agitation grow. Then Harry remembered something he had written in his
  potions essay about Ju due toxin. "Umm professor Snape why were you giving
  me the Ju due toxin potion? I mean when I was doing research on its
  properties an effects on its users I read that this potion takes three
  weeks to make, and that it must be brewed using only fresh Boom slang
  roots." "Make your point Potter I grow board with your very presence as we
  speak!!" the potions master ground out at his least favorite student. "I
  was just saying that I remember reading that the potion in question is used
  for two reasons 1. To sustain fledge ling vampires until they heal enough
  to hunt. 2. To numb the pain of a newborn vampire until the turning is
  complete." Harry recited what he had read all those weeks ago. "Very good
  mister Potter you seem to have done your own work for a change instead of
  relying on Miss Granger to do it for you. I must ask you though why did you
  interfere in matters that were none of your concern? "If you are referring
  to my helping you in Hogsmeade I did so because you looked like you could
  have used some, help I mean." Harry answered. "Well I did not want your
  help Potter and I promise you once you find out why I gave you that potion
  you will wish that you hadn't offered your help so freely. With this said
  Severus Snape burst into bitter laughter as he collapsed into the chair
  next to Harry. "Severus that is quite enough what Harry needs is an
  explanation not the sound of your laughter in ringing in his ears." "Oh and
  just how do you suppose I start off Albus? Do I say Harry I hate you, you
  are the bane of my very existence, however, because of your unnecessary
  attempt to save my life you are now a vampire and because I was forced to
  kill your creator I am now your master." Severus stopped when he heard
  Harry cry out, "YOU ARE MY WHAT!! CHAPTER THREE: The potions master glared
  at his employer with every ounce of anger and loathing he had in him. Now
  had Dumbledore been a normal person he would have wet himself or at least
  shown a little fear. However Albus Dumbledore was well, Albus Dumbledore
  and so all that met Severus' gaze was that damnable twinkle the man was so
  well known for. "My dear boy I am not asking you to tell him everything as
  of yet but he does need to know the basics." The headmaster explained just
  as patient as ever. "Excuse me professors but, WOULD ONE OF YOU MIND
  TELLING ME WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS GOING ON..." Harry stopped yelling once
  he noticed he was doing so. "Sorry professors, it's just that you were
  carrying on a conversation consuming me while I am right here and well the
  Dursleys ignore me quite enough thanks." The Gryffindor huffed. "Oh now
  let's all feel sorry for the golden boy of the wizarding world because no
  one in his household will give him their complete and total attention."
  Snape bit out though clinched teeth. "Severus the boy needs understanding
  now more then ever before. So please no snide remarks about him or his up
  bringing." "Very well headmaster." Snape sighed in resignation. He turned
  sideways in his chair to face his most hated student. "Potter I am about to
  tell a story one which I have never told before and as such you are not to
  interrupt me there will be plenty of time for your questions after the tale
  Is told. Also you are not to tell anyone of what has been discussed in this
  office today. Is this clear mister Potter?" "Yes professor Snape sir."
  Harry answered grudgingly. (The only way I would tell anyone would be if
  absolutely necessary. Even then I would only tell Ron and Hermione. As it
  is now I have a few secrets not even they know about...) "Potter pay
  attention will you?!" "Now as I was saying the day you saw me in Hogsmeade
  I was battling vampires. They were not average vampires they were of the
  Julius clan and the have the ability to walk in the sunlight also they
  don't have to kill or turn the prey from which they drink. Snape paused
  then and rubbed his neck in an attempt to ease the building tension that
  was beating at his skull. Deciding it was useless he gave up on relaxing
  and continued on with his story. "I was unfortunately losing that battle
  when you came upon us. For what ever reason they lost interest in killing
  me and went after you. By the time I realized what was happening you had
  already been drained of most of you blood to the two vampires who had
  originally attacked me. The fight that ensued is a blur to me but somehow I
  managed to defeat both of them. However when I reached you, you were dying
  so I did the only thing I could think of to save you, I gave you blood. Do
  not look so thankful mister potter for you see I am a vampire and because
  you were not only bitten by but also shared a blood transfusion with one
  there is no going back you must be turned or you most certainly die.
  Severus regarded the boy before him with a cool calculating expression .he
  wasn't entirely sure how the boy was going to take this last bit of news so
  to give himself time to think of how he wanted to word this last little tid
  bit of information he asked if Harry had any questions. "Yes sir I do when
  do I have to start drinking blood? For you see I am feeling just a bit
  hungry but the thought of food makes my stomach lurch." the professor just
  reached into a robe pocket and produced a vile filled with what Harry
  supposed must be blood. Here drink it; it will help with the dizziness as
  well." That said Severus thrust the vile into Harry's hand. "Umm just one
  other thing professor h-how am I to be turned? What must be done?" Harry
  asked not sure he liked the look in his potions masters gaze as he regarded
  him. At Snapes' answering smirk Harry knew he was not going to like the
  answer he was about to get. "Well mister potter finally standing your
  ground and facing what scares you I am most impressed." The potions master
  answered actually seeming truthful. "I did some reading while you were
  sleeping and it would appear that since I am not the one who gave you the
  vampires kiss that the only way to complete your transformation into a
  vampire is for you to receive yet another bite. This one most be given
  during an act of intimacy. The bite must also be given and received by the
  original blood giver. In short Harry we must bite and drink from one
  another while in the act of mating." Severus Snape usually pale complexion
  grew even more so as he uttered this last sentence... Chapter Four Harry
  sat dumbfounded. (Did, did Snape just say that we have to have... sex?! No,
  no he cannot have said that! I simply must have misheard him is all. Yes
  that must be it , I mean the man hates me after all I am the boy who
  fucking lived for Merlin sakes!! Oh and just don't you forget Harry James
  Potter you are the very bane of this man's existence... ) "Harry my boy are
  you quite alright? You look a bit pale." The headmasters question while
  interrupting one train of thought started yet another one. (No I am not
  alright you jackass! I just recently started questioning my sexuality and
  now I am being informed that I have to shag my most hated professor. Bloody
  hell you've done it now Harry!) "No professor Dumbledore I am fine. I do,
  however, have a few questions that I wouldn't mind having the answers to...
  that is if the two of you don't mind." As Harry said this he fixed his
  heated gaze upon Severus Snape "No Harry my boy please do go on whatever
  questions you may have I am quite sure that either Severus or I can get all
  your questions answered, to the best of our ability. The headmaster took
  the liberty of answering for both himself and the potions master. Speaking
  of our potions master, he heard none of this conversation because he was
  lost deep within his own thoughts... (Oh bloody brilliant Sev just what
  have you gone and gotten yourself into now?! Well I will tell you what a
  mess you have gone and gotten yourself into William Severus Snape.. You've
  gone and made it so that you are now Harry Potters mate... FOREVER!!) (Well
  I guess there is naught to be done about it, except hope, hope that James
  potters son would not reject him the way James had done all those years
  ago. Because I know my heart cannot stand to be broken yet again.
  Especially by someone who is almost your double in appearance James.)
  "What?! So you guys weren't just joking? Snape,... he and I are going to
  have to shag, as in become lovers?!!" Harry said this last bit with very
  obvious distaste in his voice. Snape had heard this last statement because
  Harry's elevated voice had brought him out of his musings. "Yes Harry I am
  afraid it was no joke your very life depends upon this mating so, I am
  sorry to say that there is no way around this." Dumbledore answered his
  golden boy gravely. `I am also sorry that you are so upset by this Harry.'
  he said as an after thought. "Well of course I'm upset! I mean it is not
  every day that one finds out that they are a vampire...and I did just find
  out that I have to sleep with my greasy git of a potions master after all!"
  when our Harry opened his mouth to fume some more he was cut off by Snape's
  voice. "What's the matter Potter?? Pissed of because I don't throw myself
  at your feet like Ms. Granger and miss Wesley do?" To both professors'
  shock and surprise Harry Potter burst into hysterical laughter. "Why
  professor I am shocked!!" Harry choked out. "And prey tell me why is that
  mister Potter?" Snape asked his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Because as
  far as I knew lesbians do not throw themselves at people such as myself"
  The boy who lived responded. "Oh,... well then do tell me why you are so
  all fire pissed off Har- mister potter??" the potions master questioned
  heatedly. Severus had a mad gleam in his eye that Harry just hated and so
  he decided that he would do whatever it took to wipe that stupid smirk off
  of his pale face... "Because professor I am a virgin and I am almost
  certain that I'm gay but I'll be damned if I will ever sleep with the likes
  of you!! I... would... rather... die!!" Harry screamed emphatically. With
  this said our Harry turned on his heel and left Dumbledore's office leaving
  two stunned professors in his wake... As the two men watched the teen boy
  leave they could say nothing. Severus Snape was the first to recover from
  his mental stupor, "Albus did I just hear what I think I heard?" the
  potions master asked his mentor. "Well my dear boy that depends because you
  and I have known for quite some time that Harry's sex life is shall we say
  umm nonexistent." "DAMN IT ALBUS!!! That was not what I meant and you know
  it. What I meant was did Mister Potter just admit that he is a
  homosexual?!?" "Severus if you want an answer to that inquiry than you
  shall just have to ask Harry. As a matter of fact I must ask that you
  continue teaching young Harry occlamency. > (Stupid Snape has to look at me
  in that condescending way!) Harry thought to himself as the spiral
  staircase descended. (Oh well I'll talk to Mione about it later she'll help
  me to understand this whole thing without being judgmental about
  it...)Harry was so lost within his musings that he had not even realized
  that his feet had carried him to the entrance of Gryffindor tower. The fat
  lady had to ask him twice for the password. He came to his senses and gave
  it to her quickly `equinox'. He then entered the common room to wait on his
  best friends to return from lunch. As Harry waited for Ron and Hermione his
  mind began to wander back to a recurring dream he had been having for the
  past three weeks: ------DREAM SEQUENCE----- He was walking alone on
  Hogwarts grounds during sunset.. "It is so pretty out here I think I'll go
  and have a rest under the oak tree that overlooks the lake." Harry said to
  himself. As he reached his destination he sat down and gazed at the sunset
  as it was reflected in the lake water...Oh Sirius why ?? Why did you have
  to die and leave me all alone? Why do the streaks of blue in each and every
  sunset remind me of your eyes? WHY!!! The feel of something wet upon his
  wrist brought him out of his musings. "I am crying again... will this ever
  stop? It has been two years now." As Harry said this to himself something
  inside of him snapped and he began to sob so hard that his lungs burned
  from the effort of trying to breathe. Harry continued on like this for some
  time after sunset... then he heard someone approach him from behind, they
  dropped down and pulled him into a strong warm embrace. This startles Harry
  and he asks in a teary voice, "W-who are you and why do you hold me this
  way?" The only answer he received to his question was in the form of a deep
  chuckle. Upon which he was turned toward his would be comforter only to
  realize that they were faceless. Faceless that is until they kissed him.
  And oh man did they ever kiss him!! It was the kind of kiss that teased as
  well as promised things. The kiss was full of passion and love. When the
  two brake apart Harry gazes into twin obsidian eyes filled with need want
  longing and so much passion that it made Harry want things that he never
  had in all his seventeen years. Soon obsidian gave way to long greasy
  looking black hair and a medium sized slightly hooked nose... -----END
  DREAM SEQUENCE----- It would appear that Harry's would be comforter is none
  other than his most hated professor. So Harry was left with only one
  question... why? Why was he dreaming of his potions master in this way?
  Chapter Five >>>>>> "Albus how can you be so calm about all of this?
  Especially when you know what must be done to keep him alive?!" Severus
  asked incredulously . "I am calm about it because I know there is no way
  out of it. You know as well as I do that if you do not do this within
  thirty days form now he will die." the headmaster answered very matter of
  fact. "Be that as it may Albus it does not mean that I will do it. I cannot
  he is a student it's forbidden for a teacher to become involved with their
  student! Plus I can't stand him he is arrogant and spoiled selfish, and an
  attention seeking prat! No, headmaster I simply Will not do it. Sev folded
  his arms and set his face in what he hoped was a resolute expression. (Well
  I had hoped it would not come to me bringing this up, after all you did use
  my pensive in the strictest of confidence. You did ask for this my dear
  boy, it is only because you are so damn stubborn that I say this to you...)
  "William Severus Snape I never thought I would see the day that you run
  from a challenge! Dumbledore smirked inwardly as he saw the potions masters
  face flush and his eyes spark to life with a very evident anger. "Before
  you fume off at me my boy you are going to hear what I have to say." There
  was a look of pure resolution in the old mans eyes so the potions master
  shifted in his seat as to get comfortable. He knew this look all too well,
  it meant he was in for a lecture and it was to be a doosey if that twinkle
  in his eye meant what Snape thought it did. The old man knew something that
  he did not and he was not sure he liked that fact all that much. "Now then
  my dear boy know that I am truly sorry for all that I am about to say to
  you but I feel as though it has to be said for all of our sakes." Taking a
  deep breath to steady himself he continued. I know that you have other
  feelings than hatred and jealousy for mister Potter." before you make a
  move to deny this fact I would like to say I saw a certain memory you
  forgot to remove from the pensive Severus Dumbledore sat there behind his
  desk totally silent for quite some time after the potions master had gone
  to his own chambers. Without warning he stood and walked over to a cabinet
  off to his left, which was standing slightly ajar. Sighing once more he
  pulled out a stone basin that held a glittering, silvery substance.
  Carrying the basin over to his desk the headmaster took his seat. Then
  pulling out his wand he poked at the surface of the liquid, he had
  successfully extracted a particular one of Snape's memories. ---MEMORY
  SEQUANCE--- Severus was at twelve Grimmenwald place. He was watching as
  they lowered an empty casket into serious family plot as a final show of
  respect to Black. To Snape's right stood Lupin who even to Severus looked
  lost. Lupin held a very emotional Potter in his arms. "Oh professor Lupin I
  miss him so much! It's my entire fault he's gone!" Remus at a complete loss
  turned to Severus as he watched the grief stricken boy walk over to the
  casket. Harry bends down and taking a handful of dirt tosses it onto the
  slowly lowering pine box. Snape watches a single tear slide down Harry's
  face to mingle in the dirt. The former death eater then notices the young
  Gryffindor is speaking. "Serious I am sorry I didn't have more time to get
  to know you. Keep my mum and Dad Company until I can be with you guys again
  okay? I'll miss you Snuffles." As Sev watches the boy walk away he quickly
  falls in step behind the young boy "You know Harry if you need a dreamless
  sleep potion all you need do is ask and I will make you some." "Thanks for
  the offer sir but I'm tired of running, especially from my dreams." Harry
  says cryptically. "What exactly do you mean mister...?" Snape never got to
  finish his inquiry, however, because before he got the last word out Harry
  had turned his potions master to face him and pressed his petal soft lips
  to Severus'... ---END MEMORY SEQUENCE---___A.N the memory sequence was of a
  dream Severus had extracted from his own mind___ As the pensive went black
  Albus sat lost in his musings, (It seems as though I must devise a way to
  force Severus and young mister potter to work together in hopes of making
  them do what must be done. But... how??) All at once his blue eyes light to
  the brightness of carved sapphires caught in the midday sun. The old man
  smiles as he starts to pen the letter that will force two well known
  enemies to work together... Well he finally got curious then did he?? Time
  to find out what I want to know without seeming like I want to... "even
  though I forgot to remove that memory I don't appreciate the fact that you
  looked at it before disposing of it! Look Albus I know not what it is that
  you THINK you saw but it's most assuredly not that!!" "Oh Severus dear boy
  but I think it was. For you see there was more than just one memory left in
  the pensive, more then just your dream yet you automatically assumed that
  is the memory to which I was referring. I believe you need to give yourself
  as well as young Harry a chance contrary to what the both of you believe
  you two do deserve true happiness and that I really do believe the two of
  you can and will eventually be that for each other. Just think over what I
  have said my boy." Without another word Dumbledore was gone. Snape who knew
  it was no use to try and reason with the old codger got up from his seat
  and left to his rooms considering his mentors words on the way... after Sev
  had departed to his chambers Dumbledore sighed out loud as he took a seat
  behind his desk and said "Severus my boy you are still fighting a battle
  you have already lost... you love him and what's worse you do not even
  realize it ---Back in Gryffindor tower--- " Hermione! I thought you would
  never be done with lunch!!" Harry exclaimed as he jumped up to embrace the
  girl that had ,over the course of the years, become like a sister to him.
  Hermione returned the hug while guiding the both of them onto the couch in
  front of the fire. "Alright Harry spill it the last time you looked this
  bad he who must not be named had just come back." the girl stated simply.
  Our Harry thought about lying to her but one look into her brown eyes told
  him that she would know it if he did. Not knowing where to start Harry just
  blurted out the first thing that came into his spinning mind, "Snape is a
  vampire Mione. "I know Harry I've known since third year, but that's beside
  the point... go on." "Well that day in Hogsmeade as I came out of the
  potions shop I saw Sev-- uh Snape being attacked by two men. He was winning
  but then I saw a third coming up behind him. To be honest I still do not
  know why but I rushed in to help him and that's what landed me in the
  hospital wing for the past three weeks." Hermione was growing impatient
  with her friend's ranting and decided she could not wait it out. "Harry
  maybe you should just come out and tell me what the problem is?" She
  suggested becoming frustrated. "Yeah Hermione you're probably right it
  would be the easiest way to go about things. The guy I fought in Hogsmeade
  was a vampire. At some point during the battle he bit me. Long story short
  the guy that bit me was killed so Severus had to give me his blood. Now if
  I don't wish to die I have to mate with him." Harry was amazed at how just
  telling someone something could make him feel one hundred percent better.
  He came back to himself as he heard his friend sigh and say, "Oh Harry
  James Potter what have you gone and gotten yourself into now? Well we will
  just have to put our heads together and see if we can't figure this one
  out. Now Harry as you have said you don't know why you saved professor
  Snape's life. So before we can start planning to get you out of this mess I
  must ask, Harry are you gay?" "WHAT?!? Am I--- NO of course not! At least I
  don't think I am... why do you ask Mione?" The wizard finished lamely. "Hn
  I think we can continue with our planning now Harry. Because lets face it
  friend you and I both know that this has to happen and if you're at least
  somewhat attracted to Snape then it won't be so bad now will it??" Hermione
  looked at him pleadingly as she finished. "Just because I may be attracted
  to guys does not sugar coat the fact that I have to sleep with my most
  hated professor to stay alive!!? DAMN IT why does this stuff always have to
  happen to me?" the golden boy ranted on. "First off Harry technically he is
  not your professor. Not since you tested out of potions class last year.
  Secondly there is a very fine line between love and hate." as Hermione said
  this she looked over to see Foulkes, the head masters phoenix swoop down
  upon her friends knee, a letter clasped within his beak. "What do you mean
  Mione?" Harry asked puzzled. "You'll figure it out Harry I believe in you."
  With this said she left to her room. As Harry opened his letter from
  Dumbledore. As she reached the base of the girls dormitory stairs she gave
  a soft chuckle when Harry's curses, reached her ears. (I know you are the
  one behind this Dumbledore and I cannot wait to see what you have planned
  for Severus and Harry. I don't know how but I am certain that, that letter
  concerned him as well as Harry...) Severus was in a sour state indeed as he
  left the headmasters office. In fact, as he was descending the final flight
  of stairs to reach his chambers he managed to scare a second year girl out
  of her wits as he barged past her in a flurry of swishing black robes. The
  dark haired professor was so caught up within his own musings that he took
  no house points from the girl as he passed her. (Stupid Potter! I shall
  never be free of him. each time I remove and dispose of an unwanted thought
  or image of him it is replaced by a new more graphic one. damn it Albus!
  this is somehow your doing, I just know it!!) Before the potions master had
  realized it he had reached his chamber door. Without hesitation he spoke
  his password, (Jade), he entered and looked for his whiskey. When he did
  find it he poured himself a generous helping as he cursed the old man for
  all he was worth. Once he had downed the first Severus poured himself a
  second glass. He then dropped unceremoniously into the chair that sat
  before his fireplace. The former death eater ground his teeth in
  frustration as once again his drink induced numbness was shattered by
  visions of a certain green eyed teen aged boy. (Oh shit Harry I will never
  admit this to you or anyone else for that matter... I think may have done
  something unforgivable. I have gone and developed feelings for the savior
  of the wizarding world. I damn myself each and every day because I did
  nothing to stop myself from falling for you.) Chapter Six As he came out of
  his mental stupor Sev stared into the fire burning before his eyes. Then
  with a flick of his wrist he sent his glass careening into the fire. The
  fire gave a great spit of light as the alcohol met the flames. Only when he
  heard a disapproving trill did Severus take his eyes from the fire. "Shit
  Foulkes tell the insufferable ole coot I can't meet with him right now,
  that I am indisposed." The ex death eater wasn't sure how but he knew that
  the letter contained in the birds beak was his superior asking to meet with
  him about something, probably potter. That was a meeting he was not looking
  forward to in anyway. Snape grunted in anger as he realized the damnable
  bird was not leaving. He snatched the letter from the phoenix beak and
  tearing it open read it quickly. Foulkes, whose job was now done flew out
  the door which Snape had so carelessly left open. Following on Foulkes'
  wings was a string of very loud and vulgar curses. "You can tell Albus if
  wants me he can hold his meeting here in my chambers because I am not going
  ANYWHARE!!" Severus bellowed out in the birds wake. "SEVERUS SNAPE!" Our
  potions master started as he once again turned to face his fireplace. Held
  within the flames was none other than the head of an angry Dumbledore. "You
  are to come straight up to my office. I will hear no arguments on this, now
  Floo your butt here now!" Dumbledore said in a stern voice that even
  Severus dare not challenge. The headmaster stayed in the fireplace until he
  saw with his own eyes that the potions master had taken a handful of Floo
  powder into his hands... Severus took a deep breath in order to steel
  himself against the head masters' mood. With a final prayer for his soul he
  dropped the fine powder into his fireplace while calling out, "Headmasters
  office." The second he stepped fourth into the green flames Severus
  instantly regretted not taking some pepper up potion first. He soon felt
  his feet touch the carpet of Albus' office. Caught off guard by a sudden
  bout of dizziness the potions master stumbled forward and only just managed
  to catch himself. After a moment or so the former death eater could feel
  someone pushing a goblet of warm liquid into his hands. "Here drink this
  and sit I want to talk to you when and only when you are sober." Against
  his better judgment Sev downed the stuff in a single gulp. As the drink lit
  his throat afire the Slytherin realized two things, one Dumbledore was
  pissed off. Two he was about to feel the wrath of an angry Albus. Oh yes in
  short he was doomed. As his vision cleared the potions mater noted that the
  head master had pulled out a chair within a darkened portion of his office.
  "Sit William I am very disappointed in you." Albus said sternly. "First off
  do not disobey me again. You know very well that when I ask you to do
  something that it is for your own good. Secondly starting Monday I will be
  assigning you a teachers assistant. This will take effect on Monday and
  shall continue until further notice. Dumbledore finished putting his hands
  together and resting his chin on his finger tips. Severus quickly forgot
  about his impending headache when he heard the words `teachers' assistant'.
  "WHAT?! Dumbledore I do not need nor do I want a teacher's assistant.
  Besides I know of no one qualified to take on the job of my teachers'
  assistant." Severus rationalized. Ah but Severus my dear boy you seem to
  have forgotten all about the one student who did in fact manage to test out
  of your class a year early." Dumbledore smiled as he saw a brief flicker of
  panic flash in his former students' eyes. (Of course I have not forgotten
  him! He is all I appear to see when my eyes close. But wait that must mean
  that... Oh shit no! Just what have I done to deserve this??) "Head master
  you cannot possibly mean Potter! If it were not for Minerva's' tutorage he
  would never have passed that exam! Severus fumed. Now William that was not
  fair to Harry. You know as well as I do he is very adapt at potions." Albus
  defended. "The only time mister Potter has been `adapt' at potions is when
  miss Granger was there to correct his foul ups." Snape laughed mirthlessly.
  (Harry and Hermione are a lot like James and I used to be. When James would
  screw up a potion I always had to bail him out and he repays me by
  shattering the heart I so freely offered to him...) "Now Severus you know
  as well as I do that this has to stop." at the potions masters questioning
  gaze, Dumbledore went on. "Don't act dumb boy and don't think that I can't
  tell that you are blaming young Harry for both your heartache and for being
  his fathers' son." Albus smiled inwardly as he felt Williams's aura spike
  in anger. "Damn you Albus you said that you would no longer use your
  legemency skills to read my mind!" Severus yelled. "Is it not bad enough
  that you're having me attempt to teach that insufferable brat occlamency
  again? Do you enjoy putting me through hell Albus? I know I couldn't have
  done anything so bad in a past life to have Potter constantly dumped on
  me!" The potions master almost whined out of frustration. So what you think
  I wanted to have to deal with occlamency lessons on top of my impending
  vampirism...please!" For the second time that day both professors were
  caught off guard by none other than Harry potter himself. Chapter Seven
  "Potter how long have you been here?" Severus cried out surprised to see
  the Gryffindor standing in the shadows of the headmaster's doorway. Long
  enough to know that you're about as keen to have me as an assistant as I am
  to be starting occlamency training again professor." Harry answered with a
  smile. Severus paled considerably as he took this information in. Then he
  could gave been here to hear our argument. (This is not a good thing. The
  Slytherin thought to himself.) "Look I see no possible way out of this so
  let's just shake hands and agree to disagree, okay?" Harry asked his
  emerald eyes turned to Snape. The pleading in them very evident as he
  extended his hand. Severus stood and walked the short distance between
  himself and the Gryffindor. Harry gasped as his former potions master
  stopped his lips a scant few inches from Harry's lips. "Understand
  something Potter just because I have agreed to this truce doesn't mean I
  like you." Snape bit out in a harsh whisper. Knocking away the hand Harry
  was holding out and stepping around the boy he gave Dumbledore a curt nod
  and left via the Floo. Harry was thankful Snape did not turn back to face
  him after he had slapped his hand away. The seeker knew that if he had done
  so the Slytherin would have seen the hurt that radiated through Harry's
  entire being, complete with the slight sheen of tears that coated his
  irises. What Severus had missed seeing from his soon to be lover the old
  man didn't. As Harry also turned to leave he was called back by the
  headmaster. "Harry could you stay I believe it's time we had a little
  chat." "Dumbledore can't this wait until morning? I need to get back to
  Gryffindor tower. I am tired." Harry pleaded his voice cracking more than
  once before he had finished. "No Harry my boy I am afraid that it cannot
  wait until morning. Please sit down. Albus answered. Harry sighed in defeat
  as he walked over and took a seat before the headmasters' desk. "What is it
  that you wished to speak with me about professor? Please be quick it`s late
  and I don't think I can stay awake much longer." the boy who lived
  explained. "Very well then Harry I shall get to the point. I wanted to tell
  you a bit about the position you will start on Monday as well as a bit
  about the person you will be working with." Dumbledore explained. What more
  is there to know, the man hates me and that is never going to change. Even
  when we have sex that won't change the fact that he cannot stand me. (Even
  though I think I may have a crush on the greasy git...)Harry thought to
  himself. Dumbledore smiled to himself as he read the young students mind.
  "As I said in the letter I sent you Harry you are to start you new position
  the day after tomorrow my boy. You will be charged with keeping the potions
  lab clean each day. Also since you have your potions time free now, you are
  at professor Snape's call during those times too." When our Harry made a
  move to interject Dumbledore cut him off with the raze of his hand.
  "Further more Minerva has recently informed me that transfiguration is no
  longer a challenge for you. In fact the headmaster went on. She has
  unbeknownst to you given you a test to see just where your abilities lie. I
  am very pleased to inform you Harry that you've tested out of
  Transfiguration with scores higher than Tom Riddle himself." Dumbledore
  informed Harry. (She must have been testing me last week when she asked me
  to help her fix the furniture in Gryffindor tower for the holiday since
  dobby ill. It all makes sense to me now, why she had to leave right then to
  Dumbledore's office and asked me to completely redo from scratch. I was to
  transfigure 150 yards of silk into furniture and anything else I thought
  the room may need. It took me nearly two hours before I was finished. All
  the chairs and couches and such I made mid-backed with clawed oaken feet.
  Each was upholstered in gold with moving red lions that pounced on silver
  serpents. This was in honor of our upcoming Quidditch match. I added two
  cafeteria length tables complete with chairs and three tiffany style lamps
  that have lions for bases. I also enchanted the carpet to change form red
  to gold and back again. I even managed to make red curtains with gold
  fringes to go over the windows in the common room...) "Harry, Harry are you
  listening my boy?" The Gryffindor shook himself from his musings when he
  herd the headmaster's voice. "I am sorry sir I was just lost in thought."
  Harry apologized. "Yes well I can see that my boy." Albus chuckled. "Now as
  I was saying since you've tested out of Transfiguration you are to assist
  professor Snape during those times as well." I have to WHAT?!? No I won't
  do it I can't! Headmaster he hates me. I'll be spending enough time with
  him as it is. You know what with the occlamency lessons and all." I see I
  did not want it to come down to this Harry, but if you refuse to do this
  then I shall remove you form your position as Gryffindor seeker. Dumbledore
  knew he had won when he saw the young wizards body tense and his eyes light
  with pure anger as they locked with Albus' in a brief but intense staring
  contest. Naturally the elder wizard was the victor. (You have more of your
  mother in you that I thought. Only she could stare me down like this. I
  suspect you get her ability to transfigure things for although your father
  was good at it your mother had a certain grace to her ability that cannot
  be taught or even leaned. One that you seem to posses Harry.) Albus came
  back to himself as the boy who lived lowered his piercing green eyes and
  muttered, "You win." Chapter Eight It hurt Dumbledore to have to threaten
  Harry with removing him the Gryffindor Quidditch team, but damn it couldn't
  the stubborn boy see that his life was in danger? Oh well, in the end he
  had gotten what he wanted. Harry had agreed to work with Severus >> "You
  know Harry I don't like to have to resort to threats." The headmaster
  explained. "Yes, well could you please just get on with telling me what
  else it is I must do?" Harry bit out in an angry teary voice. "There are
  some things you need to know about Severus my boy." Dumbledore stated
  flatly. "Like what? That he is cold and has no heart." Harry asked
  bitterly. "Oh no quite the opposite my boy. If I may be so bold, I wish to
  offer a piece of advice. Observe Severus from a distance for awhile and see
  if your views of him don't change, mister Potter. The headmaster offered
  cryptically. "Thanks I'll keep that in mind professor Dumbledore." Harry
  answered in a disbelieving voice. "Secondly you need to know that your
  father and Severus were not always enemies, in fact, they used to be quite
  good friends." Albus went on ignoring Harry's snotty remark. This time the
  headmasters remark was met by the young mans disbelief. "My father and
  professor Snape friends?? Even if what you say is true headmaster what on
  earth could have caused them to become such bitter foes?" Harry saw
  Dumbledore's' eyes dull in thought as he said the words that would forever
  change the way the golden boy saw his father. "It is quite simple my boy
  William fell in love with your father and he told him just that. He however
  did so before James was ready to hear it and deal with Severus' heart in a
  mature way. Because of this James broke Severus heart by rejecting him in a
  none too gentle way." Albus explained as he watched Harry carefully though
  for what he didn't know. Harry felt as though he had been sucker punched in
  the gut...(Snape was in love with my dad?! No wander he hates me I am
  nothing more than a reminder of the pain of rejection to him. Gee Albus why
  not just tell me more to make me doubt myself even more?! Harry thought to
  himself in disgust.) "Is there anything else you wish to tell me
  Dumbledore?" the Gryffindor asked this question in a defeated whisper. "No
  my boy, however, before you go I must ask a favor from you." The headmaster
  answered. At the seekers answering nod the elder wizard reached inside his
  robes and pulled out a vile of pinkish liquid. "Please take this vile and
  give it to professor Snape Harry. Be sure that he takes it because his very
  health depends upon it." Albus stated. "Yes sir I will do as you ask." Our
  Harry answered taking the potion from the headmasters out stretched hand.
 ( Oh I do hope that this is all I have to do because my stomach hurts and    
  my veins feel as though they're on fire... I just want to go lie down.)
  Harry left Dumbledore's office with his word that he would be allowed to
  rest after the package was delivered. The headmaster was worried about
  Harry he was as pale as death warmed over. As Albus watched the boy leave
  he became lost in thought.( I hate to deceive you Severus but you and Harry
  will be mated and if all it takes to make you and he see that a mutual
  attraction does exist is some tasteless veerelisurm then so be it...) >> As
  Harry approached the potions masters the symptoms he felt earlier only got
  worse. His vision was becoming blurred and he had begun to shake as beads
  of sweat formed on his brow. The Gryffindor reached out his fist to knock
  on the chamber door but he was forced to stop as a sudden bout of dizziness
  hit him. Harry swayed on his feet. (I hope Sev answers this ...) Severus
  was lying down trying to get some rest when he heard the first knock. The
  man cursed the fates for his rotten luck. Here it was 10:30p.m. And someone
  was pounding on his door. "I'm coming!" Severus ground out as a second more
  urgent knock resounded throughout his chambers. The potions master was not
  quite sure what to expect as he threw open his door. However, a deathly
  pale Harry Potter was clearly not one of them. Upon seeing Severus Harry
  lost consciousness and fell into Snape's arms. Chapter Nine "HARRY!!" (Oh
  how well he fits into my arms. He's so beautiful with his fathers build and
  his mothers eyes ...stop it you fool it is only the blood bond that makes
  you feel this way!) The professor was snapped from his mental bashing when
  he felt Harry shiver in his embrace. He scooped him into his arms and
  carried him into the sitting room. (he is going into shock don't panic Sev
  think! ju due toxin Harry's long over due for a dose of it.) Without
  hesitation the potions master summoned a vile of it to him as he woke the
  Gryffindor and instructed him to drink. Harry's eyes fluttered open to gaze
  at Severus as he answered, "No I won't. at least not until you take this
  potion the headmaster sent for you." "Gah fine! We have no time for this
  boy!" Severus yelled out as he snatched the potion from Harry's weak grasp.
  Both men looked at each other as they drank their potions at the same time.
  (things are about to get interesting mister potter... that potion was laced
  with veteralesurm. I am about to get some answers out of you Harry.) .
  Harry gazed at Severus as he swallowed the potion he was given. The boy
  felt himself grow weaker still as the potion circulated through his system.
  "Hey, the burning in my veins has stopped." The young man said more to
  himself than anyone else. "Good this means that the ju due toxin has taken
  effect. How are you feeling Harry?" Snape asked with a smirk planted firmly
  upon his face. "I am feeling fine now save the fact that I have this strong
  urge to kiss that stupid smirk off your face professor." The Gryffindors
  eyes widened with each word that passed his lips. There is only one
  explanation for this... "Truth serum professor?" "Yes mister potter I laced
  your dose of ju due toxin with truth serum." For an all too brief moment
  Harry thought he saw a sliver of fear enter the potions masters onyx eyes.
  Damn it all!" the vampire exclaimed clamping his mouth shut with a look of
  barely suppressed furry upon his pale face. Harry Potter smiled as all the
  pieces began fit into place. "It would appear that great minds do indeed
  think alike sir. Tell me if I am correct in assuming you are also under the
  effects of a truth serum?" The boy asked rather smugly. "Just because you
  managed to trick me into drinking a potion does not make your mind all that
  great potter!" William shouted, his once pale face going slightly pink.
  "Okay one I did not slip you that damn potion. I could never do that to you
  its wrong! Two, for all I knew vampires are immune to the stuff, or worse
  we could be allergic to it. And three why would I give you truth serum when
  I already know you hate me Severus Snape?!" Harry asked bitterly as tears
  began to form in the corners of his irises. "You're quite right Mister
  Potter it was wrong of me to assume you had drugged me. Only someone such
  as the headmaster could have known that it takes a certain type of truth
  serum to work on one such as myself. I am sorry for my rash behavior." the
  older man apologized. (Damn you Albus! What are you trying to do to me?! I
  owe Harry no explanations on how my mind works... I will get even for this
  you basterd!! ) "Hey Sev lets play a game..." Harry said suddenly breaking
  into his thoughts. "A game? What sort of game mister potter?" Severus asked
  nervously. "Well have you ever seen the muggle movie `the silence of the
  Lambs?' Severus?" "Why yes I have, allow me to guess, quid pro quo...I tell
  you things you tell me things right? Sure since I see no better way of
  getting you to stop your pouting, Mister Potter. You go first." "Okay then
  Sev tell me why do you do that?" Harry questioned. "Do what?" Call me
  potter all the time it is most...infuriating you know. "I do so because...
  calling you Harry seems much to intimate for me. But if potter upsets you I
  will call you... Harry, but only in private. "That is all I ask Severus it
  is your turn to as me a question." Harry said nearly sounding anxious. "I
  know this Harry please allow this old man time to think." Snape said
  jokingly before he went on. "How long have you known you were gay?" Well I
  have only known for about 12 hours, I have suspected it since my 4th year
  though." Harry answered blushing madly. "And what made you question your
  sexual preferences Harry?" Severus asked the young man. "Hey that's not
  fair that was two questions professor!" Harry yelled pouting. "If I
  remember correctly Harry we did not state the number of questions one could
  ask in a single turn. So answer it, or maybe you're afraid to." Severus
  challenged. "I am no such thing and you know it! If you must know it was
  the end of fourth year when you and professors McGonagall and Dumbledore
  busted in on the fake professor Moody. The look of pure anger and disgust
  set upon your face made me wander what your face would look like alight
  with pure and utter passion." as Harry finished his answer he was unable to
  meet his professors eyes. It was a shame too for if he'd done so he would
  have seen Snape's mouth fall agape in shock. "Harry from now on when we are
  alone you may call me Severus." Snape stated/ "Alright professor, Severus.
  Though I think Sev sounds better." The Gryffindor joked. "Oh how I do love
  the wit of you Gryffindors potter." upon saying this the potions master
  cracked the first real smile he had in years. One that reached the black
  onyx orbs that were has eyes. "You know Sev you should smile more often it
  makes you look..." "What does it make me look, Harry...?" the potions
  master asked. At the word Harry he dropped his voice two octaves. He just
  couldn't resist doing so. He wanted to make the boy lust for him in the way
  he did for Harry. Speaking of the boy he had for some reason nested himself
  so deeply within his embrace that he was practically in Severus' lap. He
  could no more berate the boy for this than for calling him Sev. Heaven help
  him this whole situation sounded and felt well, right. Stop it you fool! it
  is only the blood bond that makes you feel this way. The ex death eater
  mentally chided himself. "Well Harry do you have any more questions for
  me?" The potions master asked as the young man began to trace shapes on the
  chest he had so recently discovered was bare. "Just two Sev." Harry
  answered. "Why did you lace the ju due toxin?" "I would have thought that,
  that would be obvious, I wanted to find out what it was that you and the
  headmaster had discussed." "Oh well is that all! I'll tell you then.
  Dumbledore just told me that since I also tested out of transfiguration
  that I was to assist you during those times as well. He threatened to
  remove me from the Gryffindor Quidditch team if I were to refuse him."
  Harry finished smiling. "He WHAT?!?" Severus shouted. "Relax I was giving
  him a hard time about working with you" said Harry. "You fool he would have
  done it you know?! It was in your best interest to just do what he says
  even though you do hate me Harry." William explained exasperated. "Stop
  right there Severus Snape! First of all I don't hate you. Second he would
  not have taken me off of the house team because it was an act." "An act??"
  the older man looked puzzled. "Yes, an act. The truth is I wanted to work
  with you, to be with you as much as possible. But I had to appear to be
  fighting it, otherwise Dumbledore would have nothing left to scheme for...
  and heaven forbid that I should be the one to take that from him." Harry
  was laughing out right now. Harry stopped laughing when he felt warm breath
  swirl within his ear. "And what else did you discuss with the headmaster
  Harry?" Harry's mouth went dry and the saliva seemed to turn to liquid fire
  that went straight to his groin when he swallowed. "Um well uhh he said
  that you once loved my father and that dad hurt you. I am sorry for that
  Sev my father was a fool." The Gryffindor finished locking eyes with his
  former teacher. "Please do not be angry with professor Dumbledore. He was
  only trying to help me understand you Sev..." Our Harry explained with a
  pleading look on his face. The older man had considered teasing, but at the
  sight of slight pain held within Harry's emerald eyes he changed his mind.
  "I am not angry with Albus Harry in fact I'm grateful to him. I would not
  have been able to tell you about how I felt about your father without being
  bitter." William stated. "Now Harry what was your second question?" Well,
  I've just decided I have more questions for you Sev..." Harry grinned. "1)
  Do you still love my dad? 2) Why were you attacked that day in Hogsmeade?
  3) What am I to you? 4) Could you ever, grow to love me? 5) Why did you
  save me that day Sir? "Well Mister Potter those are some very good
  questions. I see you're planning to take full advantage of this truth
  serum." Severus smiled yet again. "You could have very well been placed in
  Slytherin house." Snape finished. That is what the sorting hat says. You're
  avoiding the subject Sev... please answer my questions? They are important
  to me. "Very well then Harry , but I don't think you will like some of what
  you are about to hear." the potions master took a deep breath and went on.
  "The answer to your first question is yes. I still love your father. I
  always will he was my first love, however I am not still in love with him
  there is a difference Harry. Second I was attacked in Hogsmeade because it
  was discovered that I was previously given unsupervised time with you and
  didn't take you immediately to the dark lord. What puzzles me though is why
  they turned from attacking me to biting you. The only thing I can figure is
  that they thought you would be easier to control if you were made into one
  of us. Harry what you are to me is hard to put into words. You are brave,
  courageous, loyal, stubborn, caring, and sometimes whiney. But I admire you
  for all those things so yes, I could very well grow to love you Harry James
  Potter. there is some thing that needs to be said, if I grow to love you it
  will be just that. It will be you that I love. I promise I will love you
  for you not because you are your fathers' son and not because you are this
  world's savior as they have so lovingly termed you. Finally I saved you
  because, well to be totally honest I do not know why I saved you Harry."
  Harry sat there in total shock with his head on Severus' lap listening to
  all his words as well as his heartbeat. No his heart rate is the same he is
  telling the truth! (Does he really think all those things about me? He must
  or he would not have said them... oh I am so happy I have finally found
  somebody who doesn't see me as my dad, at least not anymore...) Harry was
  brought from his thoughts when pair of warm lips were pressed to his. Harry
  opened his eyes in shock. Slowly very slowly he relaxed into the kiss.
  Severus couldn't believe he was kissing Harry. (What the hell am I doing?!)
  He thought as he made a move to pull away only to discover he couldn't. The
  younger male had leaned in and recaptured his lips. Severus slowly ran his
  tongue along Harry's bottom lip. The boy let out a shuddering passion
  filled gasp. Snape needed no further invitation. He slid his tongue inside
  the warm cavern that was Harry's mouth. Soon the kiss became more heated
  and arousals became very apparent. Severus reluctantly broke the kiss. "Wow
  so that's what it feels like to be kissed!" Harry said breathlessly his
  eyes glazed over with lust. "You, you've never been kissed before Harry?"
  Sev asked disbelieving what he had just heard. " Nope I never let anybody
  try because I was afraid they just wanted bragging rights you know?" "Yes I
  do Harry and I am sorry you had to feel that way but you must sleep now."
  Harry had no time to comprehend what was said, the compulsion to sleep was
  to strong. "I am sorry about this Harry I want to make love to you but not
  until you are sure you want to without the aid of truth serum. If I don't I
  will feel as though I have trapped you because you see when we choose to we
  take mates for life and when I take you it will be forever." The potions
  master sat cradling the young man in his arms. Occasionally he would brush
  the hair from Harry's eyes. Harry mumbled something in his sleep that
  sounded a lot like you smell good Sev, before snuggling deeper into the
  arms that held him. The last thought that occurred to the former death
  eater before sleep clamed him as well was, (I don't just love you I am in
  love with you and have been for some time. I only just now realized it...)
  Chapter Ten It was so dark and cold. Harry was walking alone through the
  halls. Madame Pomfrey had just released him from the infirmary, with strict
  orders to go straight to defense against the dark arts for what was left of
  his class. Harry didn't know why he was in the hospital wing to start with.
  It couldn't have been too serious because the med witch had allowed him to
  return to his schedule. The Gryffindor was so caught up within his musings
  that he failed to notice he had passed his intended destination. He would
  have kept on walking were it not for the voice of his best friend Ron
  Wesley calling out to him. "Oi, mate did Pomfrey let you come back? You
  look affright. Well lets go in then, professor Lupin is giving a lecture on
  vampires. We cannot afford to miss this one he says it will be on the
  final!" "Alright, alright Ron." Harry said as he tugged his hand free from
  his friends grasp. The Gryffindor was confused as to when his friend had
  taken his hand but he chose to ignore this as he had started to note more
  frightening things. Things like he could now see Ron's veins pumping all
  that life giving blood through his body. As the two boys turned to go back
  to the DADA classroom Harry suddenly heard his friends' drum like heart
  rate speed up. "Heh, Heh Harry mate are you okay?" Ron asked more then a
  little scared by his best friends change in demeanor. Just as Harry was
  about to answer Ron he felt something stretch and tear within his mouth.
  WHAT THE...fangs!?! Then and only then was Harry made aware of the voices.
  Voices that cried out... bite drink drain KILL HIM!! Ron Wesley tried to
  run as he saw Harry potters eyes bleed crimson and fangs lengthen.
  Attempting to run was futile on his part, for Harry had Ron trapped between
  his body and a cold stone wall. Lost to the beast within him Harry sank his
  fangs into the jugular. The scream died upon young Wesley's lips as his
  life force was quickly drained from his body. Ron's body fell in a lifeless
  heap to the ground. As the beast was sated and Harry came back to himself
  partly he heard a high pitched laugh that could be none other than
  Voldemort as he said, you've lost it Harry. You have lost all that remains
  of your mother and father; you are no longer protected from me... Chapter
  Eleven Harry sat bolt upright or at least he would have were it not for the
  burning sensation in his forehead. "Oww." the Gryffindor whined as he
  touched the rapidly growing knot on his forehead. As Harry potter lay
  rubbing his head he began to realize things. For one his mattress was
  awfully lumpy and...moving?! "Damn Potter! I always knew you were hard
  headed but this is ridiculous!" That was Snape's voice. Suddenly Harry's
  memory came back. He was in Snape's chambers on his couch. The young man
  began to blush as he felt himself being shifted. I am still in Severus'
  arms hm... so very warm. "Potter, Harry, what's wrong? Tell me what was the
  nightmare about? Don't try laying you are still shaking and you've been
  crying... Harry, tell me." Severus almost pleaded. "Not now Sev. I, I just
  h-hold me please?" The normally brave Gryffindor shook with fear as he
  asked this of Snape. Normally Snape would just demand the answers he wanted
  but he could tell Harry was in need of patients and understanding. So he
  enveloped his love within his strong warm embrace. Severus simply held his
  Harry until the sea of tears had ebbed into dry hiccupping sobs. "Shhh
  Harry can you tell me of your nightmare now?" Harry nodded weakly as he
  started to tell the potions master of his nightmare. When he had finished
  Harry was still lying within Severus' arms very much warn out from both
  crying and reliving his dream. "Harry I must speak with the headmaster and
  it is imperative that I do so now." Snape explained while moving to stand
  up. "Sev please don't leave me here alone I'm scared." said Harry "Would
  you like to come with me Harry? Perhaps you should, after all you're to be
  the topic of our discussion." The potions master explained to the tired
  boy. Sev I don't even think I can stand... Hey, hey what are you doing
  Severus?!" the boy who lived asked in a panicked voice. "Relax Harry I am
  going to take you with me to Albus' office." Sev said as he lifted the
  young man into his arms. Harry smiled to himself as he snuggled deeper into
  the Slytherin's arms. He soon fell back to sleep feeling totally safe with
  Sev, his Severus. The potions master let out a sigh of relief when he saw
  Harry was once again sleeping comfortably. He started up to his fireplace
  and casting an anti nausea spell over himself and the boy who lived he
  started forth. Leaning Harry's head into his chest William reached for the
  Floo powder... Now standing in the headmaster's office Severus sat Harry's
  sleeping form carefully in a fluffy looking armchair. Well I see Albus
  still likes to sleep in armchairs rather then beds... Dumbledore watched
  this scene unfold before him unseen as he was invisible, at the moment,
  behind his desk. The older wizard smiled as Severus reached his hand out
  and brushed a stray lock of hair from Harry's face. Albus saw his potions
  master stiffen as Harry began to shiver in his sleep. "S-s-so c-cold Sev."
  Without a seconds hesitation William turned and walked over beside Foulkes'
  perch. The phoenix trilled as Severus passed him to open a hidden closet
  within the wall. He quickly removed one of his cloaks from inside and
  closed the door. I am glad Albus brought this back from the last order
  meeting... Severus thought as he gazed at the still shivering Harry Potter.
  Sev returned to the boys' side and draped him with the said cloak. The man
  then seated himself before Dumbledore's desk. "You can show yourself Albus,
  I know you are here." A chuckle was all that was heard before the
  headmaster appeared once again behind his desk. "Might I inquire as to why
  you are in my offices barely clad at two a.m.?" Albus asked the man sitting
  across from him. I would have thought that would have been obvious by the
  state Harry is in headmaster. Snape finished tiredly. "Yes, well I had
  hoped my eyes were deceiving me due to the lateness of the hour." Albus
  sighed heavily. "Well it is most certainly not a trick of your eyes
  Dumbledore. Harry's bloodlust dreams have started. We have less then two
  weeks to complete the ceremony. I fear it may be even worse than that
  though. I hope I am wrong about this but it looks as though the fledgling
  fever has started. If it has that gives us less then a week!" Severus
  ranted. As Albus listened to his potions master he was keeping a close eye
  on the last surviving Potter. Harry than began thrashing about whimpering
  in pain. The Gryffindor then said something too low for human ears to
  catch. Severus heard them though and they, the words said were enough to
  make his breath hitch and his heart race... "Sev please don't leave me... I
  , I love you." "Harry!!" Severus cried out instantly lunging from his seat
  to the young Gryffindors side. Dumbledore became very worried then as Harry
  continued to thrash about. "Severus, what is wrong with Mister Potter? What
  is happening to him?" "Well headmaster it would appear that Harry's body is
  metabolizing my vampiric blood faster then even I thought possible." The
  potions master was looking more and more worried with each passing moment.
  "Ah, I see so he's not supposed to be sweating blood then." the potions
  master rolled his eyes in response as he once again took Harry into his
  arms. He then took a seat where Harry had just been lying. Though the young
  man was still thrashing around in Williams embrace Snape spared the older
  man a glance as if to warn him not to speak. Then in a quiet voice laced
  with fear he said. "When I do this there will be no turning back, nature
  will take its course and there will be no resisting it. Forgive me Harry...
  (for taking away your time to get used to me). Dumbledore saw Severus steel
  himself in order to do what he had to as he said one last thing to Harry.
  "But I would much rather have you alive to hate me then dead because of
  Me." for the first time in a great many years Albus Dumbledore was
  confused. Because of the many laws protecting the vampire ways no one
  except the vampires and changelings themselves knew how this ceremony was
  carried out and they were forbidden to speak of its goings on. (What on
  earth?? Is he going to turn him right here before my very eyes! He must
  know that to do so and be caught would mean certain death for both he and
  Harry.) Before Dumbledore could voice his concern however Severus exposed
  his fangs and bit soundly into a vein in his right wrist. At first Snape
  thought he was going to have to pry Harry's lips apart and force him to
  drink, but then he heard him speak. "Sev, make it stop. Make the pain stop.
  It hurts so much." I know Harry and I will but you have to trust me. You
  must drink no matter how bad it may taste okay?" "Okay Sev I trust you."
  came Harry's tired reply. (What happened to I love you? Stop this William!
  You cannot afford to worry about weather or not Harry really does love you.
  Besides even if he doesn't love you now you have an eternity to change his
  heart...) Bringing himself out of his thoughts Severus removed his left
  hand from the wound it was covering on the right. He now allowed the
  bittersweet nectar to flow down hart's slender throat. Once his loves
  trimmers had stopped Severus sealed his wound. Severus soon looked up into
  Dumbledore's calculating gaze. "Headmaster Harry will need to stay with me
  for the next two days. Can you help us out in this Albus? I promise by the
  time Tuesday rolls around this problem will be solved." Severus explained.
  "Minerva and I shall think of something you just take young Harry and
  finish what you started. Oh and you just be prepared to explain all of this
  on Wednesday." Dumbledore stated firmly. Snape merely nodded as he scoped
  Harry up and flooed back to his chambers so that they could rid his love of
  at least this threat to his life. Chapter twelve When Severus returned with
  Harry in his arms he headed into his bed chambers. Severus placed his
  bundle on hid bed ever so gently. Snape took note that the Gryffindor was
  soaked though with sweat. as Severus spelled Harry into some dry pajamas he
  became lost in his thoughts. your fever must have been much worse then even
  I thought possible ... no matter it has broken and that is all that
  matters. You shall awaken soon and after some explaining we will complete
  your turning... "Sev, where are we?" Harry's groggy voice broke through the
  potions masters' troubled thoughts bringing him back to reality. "Severus
  where are we?" Harry's groggy voice broke into the potions masters very
  troubled thoughts. "We are in my bedroom Harry." The vampire answered
  calmly. Oh no did we... was my dream real?!! Harry gave himself the once
  over and quickly realized that he was no longer in his school robes. No, he
  was dressed in a pair of blue striped pajama bottoms and a matching long
  sleeved button up top. Harry Potter blushed as he thought,( I really hope
  he used magic to get me out of my robes. Because if my memory serves me I
  had a wet dream.. Christ Harry you have got to get control of yourself! I
  mean one dream of the man in a pair of tight black jeans without a shirt
  on... well you just have to stop these thoughts he sees you as a student,
  nothing more.) "Do not worry mister Potter, you began to run a very high
  fever in the headmasters office so I brought you back here so that we
  could, well break your fever completely Harry." Severus explained looking
  at Harry appearing very nervous. "Break the fever totally what does that
  mean professor?" Harry asked. "Well Harry the dream you had of attacking
  Ron is called a bloodlust dream this is a sign that the vampiric change is
  close at hand. Then about three weeks after these dreams occur something
  called the fledgling fever sets in. this fever happens in two stages. You
  have already been through the first stage Harry. The first stage is called
  blooding. Don't ask me why it's called that because no one knows. The only
  thing I know to tell you is the only way to stop the rise in body
  temperature is for the victim to receive blood directly from an elder
  vampire usually the fledgling's creator. Once the blood is taken into the
  bloodstream the body begins to flush out the toxins of the human dietary
  system. Some toxins include meat and all salts. The above mentioned is the
  second stage of changing. The third and final stage of changing has three
  parts. The first part is the blood call. This is where our blood will pull
  us to one another or `call' for us to finish what we started. At Harry's
  questioning gaze Severus sighed and told the boy flat out. We will become
  aroused and want to have sex with each other Harry. "Oh." was Harry's only
  intelligible answer as he blushed a deep magenta. "In the second part two
  things will happen." Severus went on. One your fangs will emerge and two
  you will bite the first person you see. Upon hearing this Harry paled
  considerably. He became angered when he heard Severus laugh that husky
  laugh of his. "Damn it William Severus Snape this is not a laughing
  matter!!" Harry shouted at his potions master. "This means that no one is
  safe from me... N-no one I could very well B-b-bite Ron." when Harry
  finished saying this he began to cry as he had done so many times this day.
  "Relax Harry I plan to be the only person you see until this is done and I
  have already cleared it with the headmaster so don't worry. "Snape
  explained to Harry. "Yes, Severus but what if...I do not wish to hurt you."
  Harry said while chewing his bottom lip from worry. Once again Severus
  laughed. "Potter I am an ancient who is more than capable of dealing with
  one such as yourself. Now shut up and let me finish my explanations so we
  can get some sleep on this night okay?? The last thing that is to happen
  will be the consummation. " William finished with a sigh. "HUH?!? Do you
  mean that we...that is to say do you mean we get to make love Sev?" there
  he had done it he had asked the question that had plagued his mind since he
  had awakened on this very messed up day. Now all that was left was to hear
  Severus' answer. It was at this precise moment that Harry realized that he
  had lied to himself as well as Severus Snape. The fact of the matter was
  that Harry would let his potions master have his virginity. Gladly.( If
  only his answer were yes...) CHAPTER Thirteen Severus smiled inwardly as
  Harry's question registered in his mind. "Yes Harry it means just that."
  "And - um - just when is this stage supposed to start, Sev," the teen
  asked. "Well typically it takes an hour or more after the blood is given. I
  suspect however, that as you did with the other phases, this one will start
  early, Harry." The Gryffindor knew even before the Slytherin Head of House
  had said sothat this phase, as he termed it, had already begun. The Potions
  Master's voice was sending shivers up and down his spine. William noticed
  that Harry was somewhat flushed. He was worried that the young man's" fever
  had resurfaced. Without a thought Severus placed a feather light kiss on
  the younger wizard's forehead to check. The instant that Severus' lips
  touched his skin, it felt as though his body were alight with flames. Snape
  pulled back from Harry and ran his fingers through his own unruly black
  tresses. (I have to stop this now. Harry deserves all of the time that I
  cangive him,) Snape thought, as he moved to pull farther away. Before he
  could do so, our dear Mister Potter sat up and forced Severus' lips to meet
  his in a tender kiss. "Thank you, Sev, you've always been my constant," he
  said. Then he kissed Severus again, much more urgently. This time it was
  Severus who looked at Harry with a very evident question in his gaze. "I'm
  ready Sev but, I've never... You'll to show me what to do," Harry finished
  lamely. "Alright Harry we will take it slow," when Severus had finished
  speaking, he stood up and began to unfasten his shirt buttons. Once he was
  done he allowed the silky material to slide off of his shoulders and onto
  the floor in a crumpled white heap. Harry's breath caught in his throat as
  he took a good look at his now shirtless, Potions Master. (When he had his
  shirt off earlier I didn't look because, I was too embarrassed. Hey, come
  to think of it when did he put on a shirt? Oh well, I don't care he doesn't
  have one on now and I prefer him this way,) Harry thought to himself.
  Severus had been watching Harry very closely in order to gage his response.
  When he was sure that the boy wasn't frightened he continued to disrobe. He
  hooked his fingers into the elastic waistband of his navy blue sweat pants,
  which had been a gift from Minerva. He slid them down slowly. When they
  were around his ankles he rose and kicked them off, with some difficulty as
  his socks were still on. He magiced the offending items away. As it was the
  older man was now standing before the Gryffindor; in nothing more than his
  Chudley Cannons boxer shorts. Harry had thought that Snape's chest and arms
  were a sight, what with the toned biceps, triceps and six-pack abs. But, if
  possible his legs were even better. His thighs firm and well shaped. And
  his calves were very well defined (Gods why does he hide himself, my pale
  onyx-eyed Adonis,) thought Harry as he grew achingly hard. Severus observed
  Harry nervously wringing his pajama top with his hands. It was then that
  Snape noticed Harry's compromising situation. Taking a deep breath he
  walked over to the bed and sighing took a seat next to Harry. "Harry I'm
  sorry but I have to know; just how much of a virgin are you?" At that
  instant, if it were possible, Harry Potter became redder in the face. He
  now had a death grip on his pajama top. "Well - um - I guess you could say
  that I'm about as much of a virgin as any-one can be. Please don't laugh at
  me, I've never even masturbated," he answered. Severus' mouth dropped open,
  "Are you joking? No man alive can survive without relieving themselves."
  "Yes, well I never have. The Dursleys gave me so many chores that I was too
  tired. And here I never have any time alone." "That's no big deal. We will
  just have to go slower than I anticipated." Severus leaned down and placed
  a gentle kiss on Harry's parted lips. "Relax, Harry. I'll show you what to
  do. Tonight is all for you, Harold James Potter," purred the Potions
  Master. Snape reached out with his strong, nimble fingers to undo Harry's
  shirt buttons. Swiftly the top was removed, revealing a very tan and toned
  seeker in his pajama bottoms. Harry let out a shaky sigh as Severus ran his
  skilled hands up and down the boys' arms and legs. "Sev I - to be honest -
  I'm a little scare d here." William lost it then, as he laughed his brown
  eyes lit up. For a brief moment Harry could have sworn that Severus had
  taken a leaf from Albus' book; because, of the twinkle that now resided in
  Snape's obsidian eyes. "Do not worry Mister Potter I shall instruct you in
  this." The Potions Master continued in his dark sensual voice, "And I
  guarantee that you will pay much better attention to these lessons; than
  you ever have to any potions class." "Sev - um - why are you smirking,"
  asked Harry. CHAPTER Fifteen Private Tutorage Harry swallowed. "Se-Severus
  why are you smirking?" the teen asked nervously. Wicked laughter was the
  only response that met the Gryffindors ears. Harry swallowed hard around
  the lump that had formed in his throat as Severus began to follow the trail
  his hands had made earlier with his lips tongue and teeth. This trail
  started at the junction of the neck and shoulder. Harry shuddered as
  William nipped at that place and began to scrape his teeth across the place
  where his pulse beat the strongest. This action caused the seeker's pulse
  to leap and then begin to race.

  The teen sucked in air through his teeth. Once more Severus laughed this
  caused his fangs to scrape his pulse point once more. Instinct overpowered
  the Gryffindor then as he dug his heels into the mattress and pushed
  himself up into Severus. "Oww that bloody well hurt!" Harry cried out in
  surprise. His cries of surprise and pain were soon replaced with moans of
  what can best be described as passion and need. William Severus Snape was
  lost the moment his fangs submerged themselves within Harry potter's
  jugular vein. The potions master using all his willpower brought himself
  around enough not to drink Harry's blood. Instead he stilled himself
  completely. SHIT, SHIT I bit him when I should have let him make the first
  move. I did not even get the chance to explain that our fangs produce a
  natural muscle relaxant to help with the pain of the conversion as well as
  the first bite. This is because the first bite must be deep enough to scar
  or the mating will not be recognized by the clan "Sev do something I need
  you to do something!" Harry potter cried out in a passion filled voice as
  he began to run his hands up and down Severus' back. Ah obviously the final
  stage has begun...Severus thought as he gave into his instincts and slowly
  began to take his loves life elixir into his system. Severus Snape knew
  that if he was totally honest with himself he wanted Harry potter with
  every fiber of his immortal being. He also knew that the blood call had
  very little to do with it. True it did play a part in it but he had wanted
  the seeker since the Gryffindors fifth year at Hogwarts school. So one
  could only expect the potions masters cock to come to life as a response to
  Harry's mewing sounds as Severus took sustenance from him.. With a flick of
  his tongue the Slytherin head of house sealed the neck wound. Harry cried
  out at the loss of intimate contact. "Relax for me Harry I promise you will
  never forget this night, our private tutoring session." these words caused
  the boy who lived to shiver from head to toe. It was not the words alone
  that caused this reaction, for you see as our Sev told Harry this he had
  slipped up onto the seventh year's body in order to begin to lick and suck
  upon his ear. The potions master while still suckling his soon to be lovers
  ear reached down with his long slender fingers and began to unfasten the
  small buttons on the pajama top he had magiced the Gryffindor into. As soon
  as they were all unfastened the elder man let the cotton material be pealed
  slowly back as he placed feather light teasing kisses upon any newly
  exposed skin until he reached Harry's nipples. Once there he took one into
  his mouth to lick around it until it was a hardened nub. He then began to
  pinch the other none to gently. When Harry opened his mouth to cry out
  Severus covered it roughly in a passion filled kiss. William once again let
  his hands roam over the younger males' body. Harry moaned loudly and arched
  up into Severus' hand forcing it to come in contact with his aching
  erection. Severus broke the kiss abruptly to gaze down at the treasure
  beneath him. Oh Harry my Harry I have dreamed of doing this and so much
  more to you but I must be sure that you know what this entails for I have
  no bloody intention of letting you go after tonight. "Harry love I'll say
  this once and only once this night if you do not wish for me to continue
  this tell me so now and I will leave. This important Harry once we make
  love I will claim you as my mate. Think carefully on this Harry because
  there is no divorce within vampire society." With this said our potions
  master waited upon baited breathe to hear Harry's response. Harry was lost
  within his own passion and want for the man now above him he had just given
  himself over to the passion he was now feeling and the greasy git also
  known as his potions professor has the nerve to stop his ministrations. "Oh
  god damn it Severus Snape!! I - to hell with ethics and propriety! I want
  you, all of you for all time and I have for a while now I have only been
  afraid to tell you. So I will only tell you this once so help me Merlin if
  you stop this now I will kill you. Oh and just so you know that was not a
  threat it was a promise. please do it Sev make me yours forever, please?!"
  Severus could hardly believe his ears. Harry wanted him! Not needing
  another word of encouragement the ex death eater resumed his previous
  activities. The Gryffindor let out a gasp of surprise as the older mans
  tongue just below the waist band of Harry's pajama bottoms and licked along
  the underside to catch a stray bead of sweat. "Hurry up Sev I'm dying
  here!" As if to push his point the seeker began to wriggle his hips in
  desperation. When the potions master showed no signs of hurry Harry decided
  to take a chance. With both hands he griped William's hair and tugged his
  body up until his lips were a hairs breath away from Harry's. the
  Gryffindor then leaned up and forward to claim Severus' in an inexperience
  but passionate kiss. As he broke away he began to grind his hips into
  Severus'. "Pants... off, now PLEASE?! Severus." Severus could tell by the
  tone in his young lovers' voice that Harry was close. Severus chose not to
  delay any longer, he slowly pealed away Harry's constricting garments.
  Snape let out a low almost animalistic moan of pure lust. Before him Harry
  lay completely nude radiating his need. Snape licked his lips as he bent
  down to kiss the tip of Harry's engorged penis. When Harry gasped Severus
  took the opportunity to take all of Harry into the warm cavern that is his
  mouth. Harry thrust up automatically into Severus' mouth only to be
  rewarded with the light scraping of teeth on his way back down. "Oh, oh
  yes, Sev gods you feel so good." Harry purred as his head began to thrash
  back and fourth on the bed. Severus smiled to himself as Harry thrust
  forward and back in his lovers' mouth. With each of the seekers thrusts
  Severus sucked in and pulled his head back. These actions caused a vacuum
  to form around the students cock. Harry felt as though he were going to
  melt. Severus wanted to taste Harry to see him lose control to passion.
  This thought prompted him to cup and start to play with Harry's balls. "Ah
  ahhh Severus I'm going to..." and with one final thrust Harry came into
  Snape's eager mouth. Severus swallowed every bit of Harry and came up to
  kiss his neck. Once there he felt Harry's fangs pierce his own. Snape could
  do nothing save cradle Harry to his neck and encourage him to drink from
  him. Harry did so with fever. Snape noted that as Harry drank he began to
  grow hard once more. Merlin bless teenage hormones... Severus decided to
  help Harry along a bit by stroking him. Once Harry was fully erect Severus
  cast a lubricating charm upon himself and slid slowly over Harry's shaft
  growing as he went. "SEV!" Harry cried out as he felt himself swallowed
  whole by an entirely new and wondrous type of heat. Severus sat still in a
  pleasant shock at the feel of his love inside of him. He did not have to
  wait long before Harry began to move in and out of him. "Oh gods Severus!
  What do I do now?" Harry whimpered. With Snape help Harry was able move so
  that he was now on top. "Now Harry move at your own pace." Severus
  explained in a lust ridden voice. So move Harry did and before too long
  both Harry's and Severus's breath was coming in short pants. "Oh yes, Harry
  that's it." the seeker lost control as his lover's walls clamped around him
  as Sev's orgasm hit. with two more powerful thrust Harry followed his lover
  over the edge. Harry then melted, still panting into Sev's waiting embrace.
  The lovers lay silent in one another arms for quite some time. That is
  until Severus Snape brought Harry potter's lips down to meet his in a
  tender kiss. " I love you Harold James Potter and I promise from this day
  forward to protect you in any way I can." Tears were now forming in the
  Gryffindors eyes. "I love you too William only until now I have been afraid
  to say it out loud." Harry snuggled deeper into Severus' arms and for the
  first time since his godfather's demise he felt as though life were worth
  living. (With Severus' love I now have the strength to defeat lord
  Voldemort. Oh yes he will no longer hurt the ones that I love.) End of part
