Summary: Harry tells Severus who, or rather, what he is...
Here's the next installment...I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 21: Harry
"Mr. Potter. It seems that there is much we need to talk about, wouldn't you agree?" Severus drawled, arms crossed in front of him and his brow raised.
Um…I…" he looked down, nervous and terrified about what Severus wanted to talk about, yet his heart was pounding with a hope that maybe, just maybe, Severus would forgive him and give him a chance. When he looked back up at Severus, he spoke, his voice surprisingly steady, "Yes sir, there is."
"I have read this letter," he sneered the word, "And have come to a conclusion, despite the anger and humiliation if felt, I have decided, against my best instincts, to give you a chance to explain," he moved closer, no, more like stalked, to Harry, and if he was wearing robes, Harry imagined they would be billowing behind him. He felt a hand grab his chin and force him to look up at the man before him, his heart pounding harder against his chest, and he swallowed. "My first question to you is this: Who is the girl to you and why have you brought her here?"
All Harry wanted to do was take a step back so that they weren't so close, so that his hand was no longer touching him. He felt his face heat up at his close proximity. He finally managed to say, "She…She is my daughter…through magic only. A friend brought her to me because he found her in the same circumstances that I had once been in. I took her in and decided to make her my heir, or at least one of my heirs."
Finally, Severus let go of his chin and turned around before asking, "Who is this friend of yours and what circumstances are you implying."
Harry felt himself breathe a little bit easier, and answered, nervousness in his voice, "Her parents were abusive because of her magic. Her father pushed her down the stairs and…" he paused, what was he supposed to say. He couldn't tell him that he was the Master of Death…not yet.
"And…?" Severus prompted, looking over his shoulder at him.
"And nearly killed her. My friend was walking by and heard her cry out. When he found her, he took her and altered the man's memories…"
"Your lying. I can hear it in your voice. You were always a bad liar." Severus told him, anger filling his voice. "You will tell me what happened, the truth this time, Mr. Potter," he practically spat at him.
Harry winced, he had no choice…he had to tell him. "Her father pushed her down the stairs, it killed her. My friend…my friend is Death, and I am his master. He brought Emberly to me, or rather her soul. She has been with me for nearly 2 decades now." He refused to look up at the man, refused to see the rejection on his face, the disdain. Harry felt the pounding in his heart lessen as the hope he had held for so long slowly bled away.
It was silent for several minutes, and Harry remained on the floor where he landed when Tilly brought them there. He felt his eyes well up with tears, but he refused to let them fall, he would not let Severus see how much he could hurt him with his next words.
Tension filled the room as the waiting grew longer until, finally, Severus spoke, "Of course, the Elder Wand. That is what Draco was referring too."
Harry's head snapped up in shock and surprise, "Draco? What has he told you?" he demanded, wincing at the glare shot his way, making him look away again.
"Draco did not tell me much, only that he was responsible for you gaining the Elder Wand." Severus sighed and sat down on the couch. "Why do you believe so strongly that it was your fault for my coma?"
"Because it was. It wasn't long after the Elder Wand came into my possession, and unbeknownst to me, my magic was already evolving, changing so that I could take on my role as Death's Master. It had to be able to handle Death magic. When I put you in stasis, that changing magic interacted poorly with the antidote, Nagini's venom and the magic mixed with it from Voldemort's horcrux," Harry told him, still looking down at the floor. He needed to get it all out, needed to say it, but he still worried, worried about being rejected.
"Earlier you said that Emberly has been with you, or her soul, for 20 years. Explain."
"Time flows differently there. I…I am far older than I look…" he whispered just loud enough for Severus to hear.
Again, there was silence. For how long Harry did not know, nor did her care. He was waiting to be condemned, condemned for who and what he was. He squeezed his hands closed in his lap as he tried his hardest to keep his emotions from showing.
"I heard what you said…" came a whisper from the couch, causeing Harry to look up once more.
"Heard?" he asked, confused.
"I will always love you, my Severus."
Harry's eyes went wide, fear now far more visible, not just in his eyes, but on his face. He sat there on his knees, stiff with terror. No! No, he couldn't have! He thought in a panic. After another moment, he stood quickly, shaking his head, whispering, "No…no…I left before…" He turned and headed for the door, letting his shadows wrap around him once more, taking him to the only place he knew he could be safe from rejection.
"Harry?" a concerned voice said, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder, "Are you alright?"
"I…" his voice shook with fear, "I'm sorry…I…" he shook his head this time, hoping to find his voice, and steady it once more. "Please, may I stay here for a while Andy? My other accommodations…they…I cannot stay there." He looked at her, eyes pleading and hoping that she would let him stay.
"Of course, stay as long as you need. The guest room is always ready for guests, so you may take it for now." Andromeda said, confusion and worry on her face.
"Thank you," he turned towards the stairs before continuing, "Please let Teddy know that I wish to be a lone for the rest of the night. I…need to think." The rest said in a whisper.
"I will. I'll let him know that you will see him in the morning at breakfast and tell him not to ask to many questions that you're not ready to talk about." Andromeda assured him.
Nodding his head, Harry quickly, and quietly, went up the stairs, remembering where the guest room was. Once there, he closed the door with a soft click and locked it, both magically and physically before tossing up several wards, including a silencing charm. When he finished, he turned his back to the door, and slid down it until he was sitting, his head buried in his knees. Finally, Harry let his emotions free, great, big heart-breaking sobs.
He sat there and cried for what felt like hours. Surly Severus was going to reject him, tell him he is nothing but a selfish, though it was partly true, self-centers, spoiled brat of a boy, just like his father. Severus deserved someone better than him, and how could He have thought that he could be with such a proud and brave man such as Severus.
He didn't deserve someone like Severus, never had if he was honest with himself. It was foolish to even think it was a possibility. So, he sat there and cried as his heart broke, knowing that Severus would never want him, knowing that the man he loved would be mocking him and calling him all sorts of names. Draco had be right of course, he was the worst Gryffindor ever…he was a coward and that was all there was to it.
