Little sister, new ally

After breakfast Harry made his way to the headmaster´s office. When he came to the entrance to the staircase he came to a stand. He didn´t know the password. He stood there waiting for a teacher when Dumbledore opened the entrance and told him to follow him back up the stairs and sat down in his office.
“Harry, my boy it is good to see you are well. How are you?”
“I´m fine thank you headmaster.” He couldn´t hide all the bitterness away and Dumbledore looked at him.
“Harry, I know that you are mad because you had to spend the summer at your aunt´s and uncle´s house. I am really sorry that there wasn´t another way.” He looked down sadly, but Harry looked right through his charade.
“Why wasn´t I allowed to stay with the Weasley´s for a while. Every other year I could why not this summer?” Harry looked at him.
“I am sorry Harry, but I spoke with Molly and Arthur before you left for summer break and they told me that they must inform you that they couldn´t take you in this summer. They didn´t tell me a reason and I thought it wasn´t my place to ask. It is their house after all.” He said with a forced sadness. Harry decided to play along.
“I didn´t know that but I could have stayed at Grimauld place.” He mumbled.
“Alone? My dear boy that would have been foolish. The most part of the summer you were underage. You couldn´t have protected yourself if someone would have attacked you.”
“I thought one can use magic outside of the school to protect oneself. Besides Grimauld place is unplottable. No one can go in there without you telling them where it is first. I would have been much safer there then at my family´s place.” Harry noticed with smug satisfaction that Dumbledore did not look happy. He didn´t like people thinking for themselves.
“The important thing is that you will never have to go there again is it not?” Dumbledore ask a breath of irritation in his voice.
“I guess.” Harry said letting the old coot think he again won Harry over.
“Do you have any plans for this schoolyear?” Dumbledore asked him in his best impression of a loving grandfather.
“I don´t think I am going to have much time left. With Quidditch and all the schoolwork. I hope I can get one of the student teachers positions but since DADA is my best subject, I doubt that will happen. Snape would rather give Neville the job then me.”
“Professor Snape Harry,” Dumbledore said with a smile and a twinkle in his eye. “Let me see what I can do about that. I think it would be a very good thing indeed if you and Professor Snape would find a way to work together. The least I can do is make sure that Severus will consider you if you meet the criteria.”
“Would you do that for me sir? I don´t want special treatment but I also want a fair shot and I know that Professor Snape will not give me one.”
“But of course, my boy. You have to realise that I want what is best for you. Yes, I had to send you back to your relatives, but I had no choice. I will always watch out for you.” Harry wasn´t sure but with everything he had learned in the past couple days Dumbledore´s words sounded like a threat in his ears.
“Thank you, Professor. Is that all? I promised Ron and Hermione I meet them in the library. Hermione has her mind set on planning every minute of every day of our last year. I guess I should be happy that I have a friend that wants me to do good.” He gave a little smile.
“I heard she and Mr. Weasley have finally found together, that is nice isn´t it?”
“Yes, I am very happy for them.” Harry said looking down trying not to smile.
“What is it my boy?”
“I don´t know I mean, the school just started up again and already I feel left out. Yesterday for example. They spend the evening together for their five-week anniversary. We were supposed to meet to study, and they went off without telling me. I´m happy for them I am, I guess I just don´t want anything to change is all.”
“I understand Harry, don´t be sad. You will find someone too. What about Ginevra Weasley? She always seemed quite fond of you.”
“I don´t know. I love her don´t get me wrong, but as a sister, I think. And what if it wouldn´t work out. I would lose the only family I have.”
“That may be but maybe you should give it a try. Just think about it you are allowed to be happy.”
“Thank you sir, I must go now, but I will see you soon.” He gave him a smile and turned around and left.
Harry almost ran away from the office until he felt he was far enough away. Shuddering at the thought of the headmaster he shook his head in disgust. He was on his way to the common room when he ran into Ginny standing there.
“Hello Harry, I was waiting for you. Can we talk for a moment?”
“Sure Ginny, do you want to go to the common room?”
“No, I think it would be better if we were to speak in private.” Harry looked at her. She was acting weird.
“Alright the transfiguration classroom should be empty let’s go there.” She nodded and together they made their way to the empty classroom. Harry threw up a locking and silencing charm and turned to look at Ginny.
“What´s up you´re acting really weird.”
“Harry I am worried about you. Yesterday Dumbledore asked to speak with me. He told me some bullshit about you not knowing what is good for you or not knowing what must be done for this war to end. He then told me that he knows that I love you and asked if I would be willing to help him to make you see reason. He told me he would give you a potion so that you start listening to the people who can help you. He asked me to talk him up to you since he thinks that you don´t trust him anymore after… you know the whole disaster at the ministry and Sirius and stuff.” She looked at him anxiously. Harry was mad and he couldn´t hide it. The windows in the classroom began to tremble and you could cut the tension in the room with a knife. Ginny backed away fear written on her face.
“I´m sorry Harry, I thought you would want to know. Please don´t be mad at me.” She pleaded in a whisper. Harry advanced at her and pulled her in his arms.
“I am not mad at you Ginny. I´m sorry I almost lost my temper. Thank you for telling me.” Ginny sighed in relief.
“Is it true Ginny? Do you love me?” She looked at him.
“I used to, but I don´t anymore. I mean I do love you, but like a brother. I met someone and I love him very much. He is a bit difficult at times, but he has a good heart.” Harry smiled down at her.
“I am happy for you Gin. I think I found someone too. Come I have to meet Ron and Hermione, we have to tell you something.” She smiled and he took her hand and pulled her with him.
They walked into the common room and Harry looked for Ron and Hermione. They sat by the fire with the back to him whispering. He walked up to them. Just as he opened his mouth to say hello Hermione looked up and breathed out in relief.
“Thank God, there you are Harry. We were so worried. What did Dumbled…” She stopped talking when she realised Ginny standing next to him.
“You guys want to go for a walk?” He asked. “Ginny asked me if we could do more stuff together this year because we won’t be here anymore next year.”
“Sure, thing sis! Ron said catching on. Come on Mione lets go. Maybe we can visit Hagrid.”
“Be right back.” Harry said and ran up the stairs to the dorms. He griped his cloak and the map and at second thought packed up all his things threw them in his trunk and shrank it to put it in his pocket. He hid the cloak and the map in his robes and went back downstairs.
“I´m ready let’s go.” They climbed into the portrait hole and Harry took out the map checking if there were many people in the dungeons. Seeing no one around he quickly led the others down there always checking if the coast was clear. They stopped before Snape´s door and Harry knocked. A few seconds later the door flew open, and the Professor glared at them before quickly stepping aside letting them in.
“You are late.” He snapped.
“We didn´t say a time.” Harry said. Snape glared at him and Harry could see in his eyes that something was very wrong.
“What happened?” He asked worried now. Snape looked at Ginny, Harry following his gaze.
“Right, sorry I guess we have to explain everything to her. Ron? Mione? would you mind filling her in?” He asked looking at them and then Snape.
“Of course not. Let´s get her to our rooms.” Ginny looked confused from one to the other and back. Snape let them to his quarters and the three of them climbed in the trunk. Harry closed the lit and turned around to look at Snape.
“Tell me Severus, what happened?” Snape looked at him.
“The potion Harry, the potion.”
“You know what it is then?” Harry asked.
“Of course I know what it is!!” Snape spat. Harry looked at him disapproving then went over there and took his hand.
“Hey, please don´t be like that. Just tell me.” Snape looked at him and sighed.
“It´s the Imperialus potion. It works like the imperius curse but it´s potency is 10 times stronger.” Harry paled.
“He… and he… he wants to give that to me?” Harry asked his panic rising quickly. He stumbled back a few steps not feeling very strong in the legs. Snape nodded.
“We will not let that happen Harry, I promise you. You know the elfs are loyal to you. You can tell them to check every drink and food three times before they bring it to you.”
“I think I made the right decision by packing all my stuff to bring it here. I will not go back to Gryffindor tower. I will tell Ron and Hermione to pack their things as soon as we done with the warding. I think Ginny will have to live with us too.” And he went on and told Severus what Ginny had told him. After he was finished Severus thought for a minute.
“Harry, I know the original plan was to place the trunk in the room of requirement but maybe it would be best to leave it here. This way you will not have to come down here every time you have to speak with me, and I can protect you better. All of you. What do you think?” he looked down waiting for the rejection to come.
“I think that would probably be for the best. With that kind of potion… the situation became much more serious. Are you sure you are okay with that? I know you are a private man. I don´t want to burden you any further.”
“Burden me?” He asked looking at him incredulously. He walked over to him and put a hand on Harry´s shoulder.
“You are no burden Harry Potter.” Harry looked away. “No, look at me Harry, I want you to know that I mean it.” And Harry did.
“You-Are-NO-Burden!” He stressed out every word. “I know you were told you are your entire life but believe me You-Are-Not.” One tear rolled down Harry´s cheek and Snape thumped it away. For the second time that day Harry lost himself in Severus´s eyes. He couldn´t look away and he didn´t want to. He leaned against him and buried his face in Snape´s chest. Inhaling the man’s sent and Harry revelled in it. He smelled like cinnamon, pine wood and coffee. Snape wrapped his arms around him, and they stood there for a minute in silence.
“I´m scared Severus, I am in way over my head. If it were one evil man after me, I think I could handle it but two? One of them being the man who defeated Grindelwald. I´m seventeen. Dumbledore has more than a century on me. He knows things I couldn´t even dream about because I don´t know they exist.”
“I know Harry, but you are not alone. I know a great deal of things. Not so much as Dumbledore but I know a lot. Your friend Hermione knows a great deal too, and you forget the gifts you received not long ago. You will have to train to master them, but I bet it will be much easier to learn now. Rowena Ravenclaws gift was the power of knowledge. You will have to find it within you but ones you do you will be knowing much more then Albus Dumbledore.” Harry was glad. Somehow Snape knew exactly what to say to calm him down.
“After you find your knowledge, you will also be able to share your gifts. If you do then no one will stand a chance against you and your friends.”
“And you.” Harry said.
“Yes Harry, and me.” Snape said smiling. “We should probably go and talk to your friends.” Harry sighed.
“Your right.” He said and let go of him, instantly feeling the loss of the safety he found in his arms and together they went to see the others.
As soon as Harry stepped down the stairs, he had his arms full of Ginny.
“Harry, I am so sorry. I can´t believe all that happened to you and that Dumbledore knew about all of it, and about your mum’s family. He will not get away with this. We will stop him, and Voldemort. We stop them both…” she went on and on until Harry gently pushed her away and smiled at her.
“Thank you Gin, but we have more urgent things to discuss. Ron, Mione we will ward the trunk later. After that you must go and pack your stuff. It is up to you, but I will not go back to Gryffindor tower. Severus found out what potion Dumbledore plans to give me. It is the Imperialus potion.” Hermione went pale, her lips trembling.
“Oh Harry!” She cried and in the next moment he again had a girl in his arms clutching his robes.
“What does the potion do?” Ron asked. Severus explained and by the end everyone in the room was shaken.
“And that is why I will not go back. Severus also suggested that we leave the trunk down here and not in the room of requirement. It would be much easier not always having to sneak down here. I think it´s a good idea. What do you say?”
“I think that would be much safer” Hermione said.
“I´m in!” Ron agreed.
“Ginny, it is your decision, but I would feel much better if you move in with us too. Dumbledore already approached you about me and I am worried he will hex you so that you do his bidding.” Ginny nodded.
“I also want to tell you about the meeting with the old coot. It was nothing important, but I placed the thought in his head that I feel left out since you got together and that you already started spending a lot of your time without me.” Ginny looked at Ron and Hermione.
“It’s a rouse Gin. Dumbledore was in our dorm the other day looking through Harry´s stuff. I walked in on him and he told me he wanted to know where he is. I couldn´t tell him that he was here with Severus, so I told him I spend the evening alone with Hermione because of our anniversary and he played right into it. We want him to think that we don´t have time for Harry as much as we used to.” Ginny nodded seeing the merit of the plan. Harry spoke again:
“I also played the Snape hates me cart. I told him that I am interested in the student teacher’s position. I also told him that I think I will have no chance at succeeding since my best subject is DADA and that Severus would sooner choose Neville then me. Don´t get me wrong Severus. I don´t want special treatment. I don´t want the post if I don´t deserve it but I think I can get it simply on my knowledge. He told me it would be good if we were to learn to work together and that he will make sure I get a fair shot. Should I get it, it would make things easier would someone see us together and you would have good news for snake face too. I think he would see it as a good thing that you come close to me so you can influence me.”
“Clever Harry!” Ron said. “Anything else?”
“No that was pretty much it.” Harry told them.
“How about tea?” Hermione asked. “Severus can explain to us how we build the wards.”
“I go make some.” Harry stood up and went to the kitchen. He couldn´t help but laugh when he came in. The house elfs made it their responsibility and loaded the kitchen with food. Harry heard a noise behind him and turned around. Their stood Ginny a wide grin on her face.
“What?” he asked while waiting for the water to boil.
“It´s him isn´t it? The one you want. It´s Professor Snape!!” Harry stared at her.
“Shhh…” he looked around, but they were alone. “Why would you think that?”
“Because he is. It´s obvious. I know you. I was in love with you for years. I watched you a lot back then. I bet I know you better than anyone. Ron and Mione probably know more about your life but I can read you as no one else can. Tell me!”
“I don´t know Gin, he is so different than before. He saw me with Dobby our first night back. Dobby healed me after the latest beating from my uncle and he saw. Since then, he… I don´t know. Everything is different now. Not only him and I, everything and it all happened so fast. The only thing I know is that I feel safe when I am with him and that I want to know him better.” She looked at him.
“That is nice Harry. I feel the same way about my special friend.” She smiled.
“Will you tell me who it is?” He asked. She looked around and came closer.
“Only if you swear not to tell the others yet. I want to tell them when I am ready.”
“I swear it.” He promised. She looked around again.
“It´s Draco.” Harry stared at her wide eyed. “Don´t look at me like that. I know he is a prig to you, but we been together almost a year now and he treats me like the queen I am.” They both laughed. “He is not like he presents himself.” Harry smiled.
“Then I guess it´s a good thing that we already talked about helping Draco. He talked to Severus and told him he wants nothing to do with the dark lord. I bet you are a big part of his decision to choose our site. It makes it certainly easier to trust his intentions.”
“He really is a good guy. I know it doesn´t look like it but he is. He is quite sensitive, and he told me once that he was very upset that you turned down his friendship in first year. I hope you can become friends now.” Behind them someone cleared his throat and they spun around. Snape stood their looking at them.
“We were wondering what takes so long.”
“Sorry Professor it was my fault.” Ginny said. You okay here Harry?”
“Call me Severus. I will help Harry carry everything. You could take some of the foot with you.” She nodded and took a plate with sandwiches and one with pie and went back to the living room.
“Who would have thought. Draco Malfoy dating a Weasley. I hope I am there to see Lucius face when he finds out.” He grinned an evil grin and Harry laughed picking up the tea Severus walked out the door Harry following him with milk and sugar.
