The happiness of HP

Harry had the longest, fullest night's sleep he'd had in years.When he regained consciousness, he didn't even want to open his eyes.

He seemed to have a beautiful dream, he dreamed of Severus, dreamed that Severus was not dead, and spent a long time with himself in that dream, with his kisses, his hugs, and even his promise to himself I will be with him every day in the future. —He had been dreaming about Severus for twelve years, but every time he opened his eyes, he realized that he was only dreaming.

So Harry closed his eyes subconsciously.He thought, as long as he kept it closed, he could picture everything that belonged to Severus in his mind, at least, let him fool himself temporarily...

However, he soon felt that there was something warm beside him, and he seemed to be tightly locked in someone's arms.Surprised, he immediately opened his eyes.

When he saw the man next to him clearly, Harry had an unrealistic feeling, but soon, he felt the man's heartbeat and gentle breathing, recalling everything that happened yesterday, a real dream?His Sif really didn't leave, so, wasn't this a dream? !Deep in his heart was filled with joy and satisfaction like a huge wave. He stared blankly at the man's sleeping face: his paler face and bony body than 12 years ago showed the poor physical condition of the man in the past 12 years. The black hair mixed with gray and white and the many extra wrinkles made his heart ache even more... He knew that the man had always been a light sleeper, so he didn't dare to move, but only looked at his man greedily with green eyes.

Not knowing if it was because Harry's gaze was too prescient, Severus also opened his eyes.

"Are you awake?" The hoarseness in the morning added a bit of temptation to the already sexy silky voice.

"Sev..." Harry nudged his husband's arms.

"What?" Severus rubbed Harry's face with his hand.

Harry kissed Severus on the lips, then smiled, "Good morning."

Severus looked at the happy brows and eyes, and felt itchy in his heart. Harry fell asleep after talking last night, which showed that he was tired.There is ample time.Both of them knew that there were a lot of things to do today, so they had to give up and continue to lie on the bed.When Severus entered the bathroom after Harry and came out quickly to tidy himself, Harry had already tidied up the room and handed him a glass of water.

Severus took the water glass, took a sip without hesitation, and was taken aback by the clear, sweet and magical water.

"Elf spring water." Before Severus could ask, Harry told him directly, "You will drink it every morning from now on."

"This thing..." Of course, Severus knew that this thing was rare, and it was a good conditioning product, but...

"Don't worry, I have a lot. The snacks I gave to Apu and Al all use this. It's my apprentice's tribute to me." Harry explained.

"Apprentice?" Severus was suddenly nervous, but seeing Harry's calm smile, he couldn't help laughing secretly that he was not confident again. A while ago, his young husband just got up from his arms, didn't he?Harry was so dependent on himself, he loved himself with all his heart.

"Yes, Jacobson Andals, the orphan of the previous elf king, the only elf prince at present, my apprentice." Harry said, "The kid likes Apu and Al, and because he was young in the He was poisoned while playing outside, and I rescued him, so under the guidance of Elder Ambu, I became his mentor. That was also a poor child. The elf king died of illness in his early years, and the queen was born prematurely due to internal rebellion , Desperately gave birth to Jacobson Jr., and the queen also died. Elder Anbu was a retainer of the previous elf king. He and a few elders suppressed the civil strife and have been supporting and raising that Highness. Now we just wait for Jacobsen As an adult, His Highness the Prince can sit on the throne in a legitimate way. It is also a coincidence that I can be his mentor. Because the child is His Highness the Prince does not have many friends, so it is rare to have playmates like Apu and Al. I have been fascinated by the elegant etiquette of the elves, and I go there every year to play." Harry said as he brought Severus a transformation suit and helped him put it on.

"When can I meet him?" Listening to Harry's introduction, Severus probably knew that Harry regarded the elf prince as a child like Apu and Al, but the elves actually let a foreigner become Master Wang, this made Severus faintly worried.

"Well, if you're lucky, you'll probably be able to see it through the double-sided mirror within a day or two." Harry smiled, "The kid has also reached the age to go out for experience, and I will take Apu and Al in June this year. When I left the land of the elves, I promised him that I could show him the world next year. Therefore, I guess he will come to me in the next few days. Elder Anbu also decided to see me for my ability to protect Jacobsen Let me be his mentor, and now they will only feel that such a decision is worth it."

Indeed, if a strong man with four additional souls stood beside the elf prince, the prince's safety and status would naturally not be threatened. Even if there were rebels in the elf clan, Harry's energy should be weighed.In addition, in addition to the additional souls of the elves, Harry also has the additional souls of the aquatic, titan, and dragon races. Being able to obtain the additional souls represents the friendship of these races to Harry. At the same time, as long as Harry needs them, they will unconditionally use all their power.Such a mentor is more of a protection for the elf prince.For His Royal Highness, the elf prince who had lost his parents, Harry was like a father, and Severus believed that Harry would not favor Apu, Al, and that Highness casually.

"Don't worry, I will definitely introduce him to you, because you are my partner, and you can also be regarded as his other mentor." Harry buttoned Severus.

"Well, but, Harry, didn't you say that you want to be a professor at Hogwarts, then, what about the experience of His Highness?" Severus grabbed Harry's hand and pulled him closer, then circled Walking out of the bedroom with his partner.

"In fact, His Highness just wanted to visit the wizarding world and the Muggle world. Therefore, I think it's a good idea to put him in Hogwarts. Then he can be taken out for inspection on weekends and holidays. What do you think?" Harry imagined.

"You are his mentor." Severus was very satisfied with this arrangement, so he didn't express any other opinions.

Harry waved the time and it was seven o'clock, by which time the children should be awake.

Sure enough, before the time had completely passed, the voice of a password came from outside the door.

"Father, Dad, Merry Christmas!" Artemis ran in lively, holding two small boxes in his hand, "I really like Dad's gift, and I like Dad's gift very much." Les's arms, "Father, father, look at the gift Al made for you."

Harry watched their father and daughter interact, smiled and shook his head, then looked at his steady son, pulled him over, hugged him gently, and said gently, "Does Apu like it?"

"I like it. The magic circle carving knife my father gave is very useful, and the potion made by my father, Apu also likes it very much. My father hopes that Apu will study his favorite alchemy, and my father hopes that Apu will be in better health. These expectations and intentions Apu has received it." Apollo nodded.

"Well, good boy." Harry smiled and touched the boy's hair, "What did you do for me and Sev this year?" Harry knew that the boy, like his father, was not good at expressing himself, but Artemis Si will be more outgoing and lively.

"This is for Papa, this is for Father, and this is for Al." The boy took out three gift boxes.

A family of four warmly opened the presents.Apollo's gift to Harry was a blood tonic made of star grass, the gift to Severus was a cauldron with a magic circle added by himself, and the gift to Artemis was a very beautiful handmade hair folder.Artemis gave Harry and Severus a hand-woven scarf, and Apollo gave Apollo a book of alchemy that was said to be Rowena's alchemy from the Ravenclaw library. Handwrapped manuscripts.

Harry and Severus looked at each other with relief.

"Father, Father, didn't you make a present for Dad?" said the girl nestled in Severus' arms.

"I'll get it." Severus stroked the kid's red hair lightly.

Harry watched Severus walk into the potions workshop suspiciously, so he pulled Artemis and Apollo over, and quietly asked what Severus wanted to give him, but he found that the two The cub who crawled inside and outside refused to reveal anything. It was only a few months ago, and he was completely bought by Severus!While eating, Harry was also very happy in his heart, after all, it was beyond Harry's expectation that the children could get along so well with Severus.Harry put on a mournful look, and said, "Sev is too powerful, he has only raised you for less than three months, and let you completely 'betray'."

"Father, don't make such an expression, it's too fake." Artemis rolled his eyes, "Father and you are a family, how can this be considered a 'betrayal'? Besides, it's for your own good that we didn't tell you? "

Now, Harry was a little surprised, the kid actually said it was for his own good?He looked at Artemis suspiciously, and then at his son.

"Dad, what Al said is right, if we tell you what the gift is, won't you be surprised at all? That's not good, you know, isn't the gift that father put so much thought into to surprise you? ?” Apollo explained.

Harry thought about it and laughed, so he didn't dwell on it, and then asked, "Did you give Jacobson a present?"

"Of course, I sent him a Muggle reader," Artemis said. "I bet he likes that one the most."

"I gave him some Muggle toys." Apollo said, "Dad, Jacobsen will be able to take an adventure with you next year. He must be very happy."

"About this, I want him to come to Hogwarts to study in September next year, and then I can teach him while taking you." Harry laughed, "Then, we can go to the Muggle world on weekends, During the long vacation, we can visit Memed or go to Atlantis together. What do you think?"

"Wow, I dare say Jacobsen will be crazy with joy, he likes his brother the most." Artemis winked narrowly at Apollo.

"Little clever ghost, don't make fun of your brother, you are still young, what do you know?" Harry said helplessly, his apprentice was half a year younger than the twins, but, at a ball, he swore with all the elders that he would marry To Apollo, this made Elder Ambu and himself amused.

Jacobson is the future elf king, how could he marry a wizard?Even if the elves agree to their being together, they will definitely say they are married. Apu's character is as proud as Sif, and he will definitely not agree.Besides, the children are still young, and they may each meet someone they like in the future, so Harry felt that such children's words should not be taken seriously.

And when ten years later, the young elf king Jacobsen really became one of the few elf kings who married, Harry had to sigh at his son's charm and ability.

"Dad, do you have a present for Father?" Apollo diverted Harry's attention.

"I prepared some materials before, but now I feel that there are better choices." Harry said.

At this moment, seeing Severus approaching with a silver gift in his hand, he smiled at Harry and handed the gift to Harry.

"Can I open it?" Harry asked.

Severus nodded, and then watched his lover slowly undo the green ribbon on the gift, the slender fingers were the most perfect artwork in Severus' eyes, Harry's movements were very slow, he seemed Want to remember how it felt to open this gift that I only received 12 years later.Severus understood him very well, so he watched quietly, watching his partner open the gift box with great care.Surprised to see a manor key lying in the gift box, but I haven't seen its action for a long time.

"This is the key to our future home, and I haven't even seen it myself. Harry, would you accept this key?" Severus came to Harry's side, "Our home, Harry ..."

"Sev, I accept, of course, there's nothing better than this. Sev, Sev, I'm really... oh..." Harry held up the key tremblingly, and Severus held the man he loved Hugging into his arms, "This is really a surprise."

Severus embraced his lover with one arm, gently took his hand with the other, and kissed the back of that hand.The two children also smiled as they watched their fathers express their emotions.

"Oh, this is for you. I'll wear it for you under the witness of the children." After Harry calmed down, he fished in his pocket and took out a ring box, which Severus recognized as Legendary Status Ring.

"It's your honor, Harry..." Severus hesitated.

"What's mine is yours Sev, everything I've had for 12 years is here, I don't care how powerful the ring is, how representative it is, for me it's all my misery, all my joy for 12 years , all the sadness and all the memories and thoughts of you all pooled and I want to give it to you. I know you are beating yourself up for not being a part of my 12 years with the kids and this ring is 12 years you have been in my heart The result of your encouragement. For me and the children, 12 years, your love has been with us. Seaver, we can have many 12 years in the future, so take this, promise us, don't blame yourself .” Harry opened the box, and a very simple and exquisite platinum ring was lying there.

Severus no longer refused, he watched the 12-year-late ring being put on the ring finger of his left hand by Harry, and then Harry stretched out his left hand with a happy face, the old silver ring and platinum The rings reflect each other, so dazzling and warm on this Christmas morning——

Winter is over, can spring be far behind?
