-- Hi, this is set during HBP. There are a few alterations though. Snape stays as potions master (just cos I can't bear Slughorn!), and obviously he lowers his standards enough that Harry can get on the course! Hope you enjoy the ride. SP
Chapter One : Diaries and Memories

October 1st.
Had the weirdest day today... well, I say today, it's actually after midnight so it's really the 2nd, but I couldn't write it up earlier as I've been in Snape's quarters. God that looks weird!
Dumbledore called me into his office after lunch. I thought he was going to bollock me about flicking mashed potato at Seamus, but he didn't. He said he wanted me to go to Snape in the evening as we had to work on something together using Snape's 'area of expertise'. Obviously I had no idea what he was wittering on about, but I did as he asked.
Snape was not pleased when I gave him the message. He said that D didn't understand what he was asking of him (Snape). I had no clue what was going on so he explained it.
Oh. My. God.
Apparently, according to Snape, D believes that Voldie is my complete opposite in almost every way - bad where I'm good, cruel where I'm kind etc. - so D wanted Snape to make me more like V in one way so that when the final battle comes, V won't be able to attack me through that area. I can't quite make heads nor tails of it, but that's what Snape reckons D is thinking. I'm not convinced D is thinking at all! Especially not when you consider what he wanted me and Snape to do - have sex!
I mean, bloody hell! One, I'm not even gay; and two, even if I was, screwing Snape would never be high on my list of priorities! I mentioned these to S (well, I altered the last objection so it didn't sound so rude) but he got what I was hinting at. He got really pissy with me and said some crap like "He didn't want to shag my scrawny bony arse anyway!" Git! What's wrong with my arse?
Did I just write that?!
I forgot to mention that D had said it was really important we did it tonight. Snape said he couldn't think of a reason why it had to be done on a specific night and basically his response was "Sod it!" which I agreed with.
To stop D from getting cross and forcing me back to S. (S said D would probably watch to make sure we did it - dirty perv!), S said I should hide (he called it "waiting") in his rooms until D would think we'd done the deed. S said he'd speak to D tomorrow and explain that we hadn't and would basically laugh in D's face. Whatever screwy plan he was cooking up is ruined now!
I'm really tired. But at least I got all of my homework done!

Severus Snape, Potions Master, Voldemort's "follower", spy for the Order of the Phoenix, Head of Slytherin, and all round general bastard, rested his head against his pensieve and resisted the urge to groan.
His memories of the previous hour were whirling in the rune covered basin, and images of Dumbledore's serious face kept surfacing.
He lowered his head into the bowl, hoping it would make more sense this time:
Severus stood before the headmaster's desk, staring at the older man who sat, eyes twinkling, and looked at him.
"You wished to see me, Albus?" Severus asked, knowing full well what the other would talk to him about, but he didn't care. He wasn't going to have sex with a 16 year old just to stop sex magic being used on the boy.
"Severus. I believe Mr Potter visited you last night, and that you refused to couple with him?"
Why did the old fool ask questions when he already knew the answers?!
Albus took the other's silence for assent and continued, "I wished you to couple last night particularly as that was the night when your magics were in flux. Had you done so, you would now be able to draw on Potter's strength to use it in the final battle, and he would be able to utilise your strength when he faces Voldemort." The white haired man frowned, "I had hoped, Severus, that you would have understood that I would not have asked such a thing from you if it had not been necessary. I am most disappointed in your failure to follow my instructions."
The Slytherin said nothing. He could live with Albus' disappointment if it meant a young man didn't have to lose his virginity for a "cause".
"Last night was when your magics were most closely aligned, allowing for the most powerful link. However, should you couple tonight, you will still both gain enormously." Albus stood up and paced the room. "Harry is only a boy, if he faces Voldemort, he will die. If your true loyalties were discovered, Voldemort would hunt you down. This coupling provides protection for you both. Now, I am ORDERING you to have sex with him."
Severus' jaw twitched as a muscle worked.
"He isn't gay." He commented dryly, letting all the other thousands of objections - moral and legal - slip past.
"No, he is." Dumbledore sounded very sure. "He is very uncertain at the moment and thinks he is attracted to women. A night of pleasure with you, Severus, will enable him to begin to come to terms with his own needs, as well as put the Order and him in a much stronger position." There was a pause before the Headmaster said softly, "He deserves to have some peace, if the worst should happen."
Severus hated the Headmaster at that moment. The other's blue eyes shone with apparent warmth and love for the boy. Severus felt manipulated and trapped.
"Shall I ensure Mr Potter visits your chambers tonight?"
Severus fought to keep all expression from his face. He nodded.
No, he decided, pulling free of the bowl, it made no more sense this time around.
-- I'm not going to have much diary writing in this as I don't like the style, but this was pretty much the quickest way of giving you the information needed to get the story without it being loads of conversations.
-- The next chapter will involve an adult having sex with a 16 year old. If that idea bothers you, don't read!
-- Feedback is always welcome! Good or bad. SP
