What to do when someone makes a plan and lectures are given.




  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 Gryffndor 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. They lost interest in killing me and went
  after you. I still don't know why though." 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 vampiric 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...

  [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 me" 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...

  (Wouldn`t you just hate my guts if I stopped the story here?? Well I won't
  so put down the sharp objects... please?? )

  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 occlumency.

  >

  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 Gryffndor
  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."

  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. TBC...
