Harry looks back at Severus.

"I'm going to go. Get me if you need something... or if Severus does."

Harry nods and runs his fingers through Severus' hair.

Severus smiles in his sleep. 

Now to 41:

In the morning, Harry is still awake.

Severus wakes up and notices he is on the floor.

Harry looks down at him.

"Hello, Harry."

"Hello"

Severus gets up.

Harry goes to the kitchen.

Severus follows him.

Harry cooks Severus breakfast.

Severus watches.

Harry puts the food on a plate then puts it on the table.

Severus looks at the plate. "Did you make yourself anything?"

Harr shakes his head and grabs some bread.

Severus pushes his plate to harry. "Eat."

Harry shakes his head and puts some jelly on the bread he toasted with his wand.

Severus sighs and eats leaning against the counter.

Harry goes to him and hesitantly puts his head on his shoulder.

Severus grins and eats less than half and sets it down.

Harry goes to their bedroom and looks for clothes.

Severus goes to the bedroom and says, "there are classes today. Are you going to your office?"

Harry nods and grabs his notebook.

Severus changes and says, "I'll be in mine if you need me."

Harry scribbles something on the paper.

Severus looks at it.

"Draco?" It says.

"What about him?"

"He help?"

"I'll go ask him," Severus says and kisses his forehead.

Harry changes into some slightly torn up clothes and goes to his office.

Draco goes to Harry's office.

Harry looks up as he knocks on the door.

Draco walks in and looks at Harry. "What happens to your clothes?"

Harry shrugs.

Draco nods and says, "okay. I'll fix them." Draco then mends harry's clothes.

"Thank you." Harry signs.

"Your welcome."

Harry looks at his startled.

"What?"

"Know signs?"

"Yah. My mum taught me. Said it's important to know the language I speak. Then sign language and any other I pick."

Harry nods.

"I'm surprised you know."

"Have to."

"Oh."

Harry nods.

Draco looks at him.

"Need help."

"With what?"

Harry grabs his notebook. "Assistant..."

"Okay."

"I'm still learning"

"It's okay. Ill help."

Harry scribbles on his notebook again. "You will not be a student."

"That's okay."

Harry nods. "Tell Severus for me please."

"Why can't you tell him?"

"I gotta find a way to tell dad all this" he grabs his paper. "I'm sure Severus didn't fulling explain..."

Draco nods and says, "I'll tell him, I'll be back."

"Thank you" Harry signs.

"Your welcome." Draco sighs and walks out.

Harry watches him leave.

Severus does not move when Draco walks in. He has his head down on his desk.

"Uncle?"

Severus looks at him. "Yes?"

"Harry told me to tell you that I am no longer a student here."

Severus nods and says, "okay."

Draco nods. "Mind telling me what happened to him."

"He made a potion and drank it. He messed up."

"You don't expect me to believe that do you?"

Severus shrugs.

"Please tell me."

"No."

"Why not?"

"I don't feel like it."

Draco watches him put his head down then starts to go through his mind.

Severus pushes him out of his head forcefully.

Draco had already seen what he needed to know.

"Don't. Get. Into. My. Head."

"Okay."

"Leave."

"Okay."

Severus hears him leave and he starts crying.

Draco goes back to harry. Draco walks in and sees Harry.

Harry looks up from the book.

"I read Severus' mind."

Harry looks down.

Draco sits next to him.

Harry sighs.

Draco frowns. "I'm sure he feels bad."

"It wasn't his fault."

Draco nods.

Harry looks up as James walks in.

"Are you okay Harry?" James asks.

Harry nods.

"Why did you need me?"

"Can you tell him, please?" Harry signs to Draco.

"Harry. Severus has no memory of how you got hurt. I only saw the before and after."

Harry grabs his notebook. "His demon."

Draco nod. "Yes I know that's why be blacked out."

"It. Raped me."

Draco looks at James and says, "Harry wants you to know what happened. And. He says the demon. Raped. Him."

James looks t Harry.

Draco looks between them.

Harry looks down nods.

James frowns and walks out to go to Snape.

Harry looks at Draco. "Should we stop him?"

"I'm sure it's fine," Draco says grinning.

Harry puts his head on Draco's shoulder.

Severus looks up as James walks in.

James sits in the chair across from him.

"Yes?"

"Are you okay? Harry and Draco told me what happened..."

"I'm fine."

"Are you sure?" James asks softly.

"I'm fine."

"Talk to me."

"What good would that do?"

"Sometimes it's good to get something off your chest."

"I said I'm fine. there is nothing to talk about."

"How about I'll tell you something..."

"Fine. tell me something."

"You remember when my father committed suicide?"

"Vaguely."

"It wasn't suicide."

"Okay."

"I kill him..."

"Did you enjoy it?"

"Yes."

"I enjoyed killing my dad too."

"When the Aurors asked I told them he stabbed himself and they didn't question anything further."

"All they knew was that it was death eaters and didn't question further."

James grins.

Severus looks at the desk. "When they came to take him away for abuse. I told them it was a lie because he was hiding with a gun. He was going to shoot me if I gave him away."

"No one ever found out about my father... did you know I had a little sister?"

"No."

"No one did... she broke an heirloom when she was three and he killed her..."

"Oh."

"Yeah... Lily doesn't even know any of this..."

Severus looks at him then looks away.

"I don't know how she'd act."

Severus looks at him.

James sighs.

"What?"

"Nothin."

Severus looks at his arms and realizes that now the blood went through the bandages.

"Do you want me to heal those?"

"Heal what?"

"Your cuts."

"What cuts?"

"Severus..."

Severus puts a wandless spelled glamor on. "See. Nothing."

"I can see through glamour, perks of being a seer."

"Well. I don't need you to heal me. I have potions if I needed it.'

"Potions aren't always the answer."

"There are potions to heal cuts."

"They leave scarring."

"I didn't say it's good."

"Please let me."

"No."

"Why?"

"I don't want you to."

"I'll be getting Harry then."

"He won't do anything."

"Are you sure?"

"Well, he's acting scared and submissive so if I say no hell do nothing."

James freezes time around them temporarily and heals him through the bandages then goes back to his spot and unfreezes everything.

Severus looks at his arm. "I said. I don't want to be healed."

"What are you talking about? I haven't moved."

"You used seeker magic!"

James looks at him. "When?"

"Whatever. Just go."

"Okay, bye!" James smiles.

Severus looks at him.

James leaves.

Severus watches him.
