Bitter Sweet
A rattling of cups altered them to Poppy’s impending return with the coffee. Harry made to put some distance between them but Severus held him close.
“Stay, Harry” he whispered gently holding him “Please” Their lips met briefly and parted to the tune of Poppy clearing her throat, tactfully.
“How you and I met **elegant shrug** is something we need to work on, I was thinking of going for ‘love at first sight” Snape smiled accepting the mug of coffee from Poppy with a wink. He turned his head to look longingly into green eyes. **beautiful**
Everyone sipped their coffee for a while in silence strewn with small loving smiles.
“How about,” suggested Poppy with a big grin “Harry was feeling poorly one day and came to the Medi-wing. He saw the gorgeous new DADA professor and fell totally and devastatingly … in lust”.
Snape and Harry spluttered into their coffee with shock; the ward filled with the sound of laughter.
“Poppy, I love you” cried Snape wiping tears of laughter from his eyes. “I love you too, but I think I need to get in line” she added with a nod in Harry’s direction. Snape smiled and kissed Harry’s cheek tenderly, conveying more than words. “Lucky me”
Conspiratorially Severus added “Of course you can imagine the horror of the DADA teacher when he realised that the luscious man concerned was” Snape paused for dramatic effect “a Merlin be damned Gryffindor, horror of horrors and him a Slytherin”
Poppy and Snape put their hands to their chests in mock shock, and broke into peals of laughter.
Harry grinned and dealt his trump. “Actually if it is of any consolation to the poor DADA the hat wanted to sort me into Slytherin”
“Well, it is actually.” Snape raised one elegant eyebrow “I feel much better now.” Snape winked “I might even be able to hold my head up in public.”
It was to the welcoming tune of laughter, guffaws’ and giggles that Dumbledore strolled into the ward.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
He stood grinning, screened from view enjoying the precious sounds that drifted out and caressed his soul. Dumbledore hadn’t heard such music in a far too longer time.
“Sssssomeone’ssss eavesss dropping” Caesar alerted them. “That sssstrange man with the long white beard”
“Come in Dumbledore we don’t bite” called Snape. “Sssspeak for yourssself” whispered Seth and Caesar.
Dumbledore smiled brightly “I have arranged for the funeral of our esteemed Professor Snape for this Thursday. The ministry of magic shall be attending, and be presenting a ‘posthumous’ medal for services to the wizarding community.”
Snape nodded “Thank you. You are quite good with people Albus” “Well they are my species” countered Dumbledore.
“An Ogden’s moment I believe. You may find some in the bedside cabinet” Poppy looked shocked, Dumbledore merely twinkled, and Snape stuck out his tongue.
Harry took the initiative fetching the bottle and conjured up glasses for everyone, and wriggled back into ‘his place’ beside ‘his man’.
“So Albus, Pray tell who am I? Now that is?” Snape inquired as he poured the golden liquid.
Albus accepted his glass as it hovered before him. “It was most interesting” Dumbledore upped his twinkle-ability “Your birth name is Antinous Vaspasian, third in line to the Unseelie crown.” Snape looked at Albus blankly**the man has fallen out of his tree**
Harry upended his glass at the revelation and quietly choked into the pillows, whilst Snape, distracted, gently patted his back.
“You left the court in the summer of your 18th year, no doubt eager for adventure and independence. Discharging any claim to the throne. ZiZy” Dumbledore coloured “errrr, the Queen, is arranging a family reunion to substantiate this publicly.”
“What of when he returns?” inquired Snape
“Rest assured he will not be” Dumbledore felt as if he had committed a thousand unforgivables **my son is lost forever; unidentified and living in St Mungos**
“Oh and Harry”, Dumbledore smiled “About the Lemon Drops … it’s a total of 23”
