The happiness of HP

After the dinner, Harry got a list of several potion association auctions, which listed in detail the time, place, potion name and potion introduction of each potion auction.Harry took a look, and took a rough note of how many auctions he had to attend, and there were only about 3 of them. You only need to participate in your own auction, but Harry circled three auctions, and the remaining two are auctions with several better master works.He has been wandering outside these years, and he knows the importance of connections.

"Severus," Sith called out his name in public, "you can't not participate at will, you have to participate in at least 4 games." Severus, who was called out in public, raised his eyebrows calmly, and Harry couldn't help laughing Get up, this smile was caught by Sith, "Also, Jeremy, don't laugh, you too!" Harry immediately put away the smile, pretending to listen carefully, "Don't think I don't know, The two of you are the easiest to run away, listen, you are not allowed to run away this time! Whoever runs away will win the master's order next year."

"Yes, President Olymp." Harry didn't want to do those master orders at all. Anyway, there are so many masters, why should he do it?At that time, just bring a book and make a silence spell.

Seeing Harry's indifference, Olymp couldn't help feeling bitter. Isn't this little guy worried about his work at all?

And Severus didn't say anything, anyway, he would follow wherever Harry was going.

"By the way, Jeremy, some Squibs and their families want to get in touch with you at close range. When do you think it would be more suitable?" Instructor Mi Gao asked.

"It's still... You know, I don't like being the center of attention..." Harry said a little embarrassed.

"It's a bit embarrassing for you, but you can just show up... We can arrange other things, you just need to give us some free time." Olymp said, "I know, you don't like it, but Just show your face."

Harry thought for a moment and finally nodded.

"Hmph, hypocrisy!" When Harry finally nodded, several Gryffindor students snorted coldly, "Obviously I must like that feeling very much in my heart, if I insist on saying I don't like it, didn't I agree in the end?! Sure enough A hypocritical Slytherin dark wizard!"

"Shut up!" Professor Shaker slapped the table hard.

"Forget it, Kingsley, for now, it should be my honor to be called a 'Slytherin'. For more than ten years, I have been demanding myself as a Slytherin, To be able to get Gryffindor to call me a 'Slytherin' is at least my success. Kingsley, I don't mind being called a dark wizard because that's the truth, but I'm sorry, Gryffindors , you guessed wrong, I'm not a Slytherin." Harry said flatly, "at least not when I was studying at Hogwarts. Well, Apu, Al, I'll take you to the cellar, you guys today I need to boil the potion for 2 hours at night. Let's go."

"Okay, Dad." The twins said with enthusiasm after hearing what Dad said.

--

When Severus came to the Slytherin common room, he saw the twins working on the materials.

"Father." The children looked up at Severus.

"Where's Harry?" Severus looked around the common room, but couldn't find the target.

"Dad is going to your office." Apollo said.

"What kind of potion are you doing?" Severus asked. Although he was worried about Harry's mood, he felt that he should be more concerned about his child.

"I make hair softener, and my father said that I will make a No. 13 crucible. My brother is making a scar-removing potion, and it is also a No. 13 crucible." Artemis said, "Father, we will go to sleep when we are done. You'd better go see Dad, he seems to be in a bad mood."

Severus nodded and said, "Okay." Seeing how the children were skillfully making the potion, he felt that there was no need to worry about the safety of the twins.So he quickly left the common room to see his worried partner.

Watching their father leave, the two children looked at each other.

"Brother, those Gryffindors are disgusting!" Artemis said as he chopped an olive.

"Al, don't say that, Dad is also a Gryffindor. And Professor McGonagall and Shacklebolt are also Gryffindors, they don't hate it, do they?" Apollo said.

"But, I still hate Gryffindor, brother, will father appease father?" Artemis asked.

"I think so, Al, shall we introduce Laura and Seattle to Dad tomorrow? Isn't Dad always looking forward to us introducing new friends to him? I believe Dad will be happy." Apollo also wanted to make Dad happy stand up.

"Yeah." Artemis nodded.

Harry opened Severus' office directly in Parseltongue, and he was annoyed and amused by the "prejudice" of the Gryffindor kids.In fact, it never occurred to him to be eye-catching or otherwise.

In the 12 years since leaving Hogwarts, since giving birth to the twins, he has indeed demanded himself as a Slytherin in his life, and even in order to educate the twins well, he quietly went to the Muggle noble etiquette school to study.As he had told Dumbledore, the days away from Hogwarts were longer than the days in Hogwarts.In other words, Gryffindor is no longer the only mark on him.

He smiled indifferently, he was in a bad mood, but not because of Gryffindor, but because he was going to the Squibs' appreciation party, which would cost him less time.

Harry sighed, he didn't have time to be grateful, he needed to do more to keep the twins healthy.Even if Severus came back to him, this short-term goal would not change, and he believed that Severus would agree with it.So, he took out the book that he hadn't finished in the afternoon from his pocket, and read it in Severus' office.

When Severus walked into the office, he saw such a reassuring image: his partner was sitting on the sofa reading a book quietly, no anxiety, no bad mood - it seems that his partner really Now that he's grown up, he's really not that kid who needs him to worry about everything. Such a partner makes him feel more secure.

"Are you back?" Hearing the sound, Harry turned his head and smiled.

Severus also evoked a smile: "What a surprise, you didn't go to 12 Grimmauld Place?" Severus took out Harry's surprise from his pocket and put it on the table, "Such a good black knight , where did you get it?"

"As long as you like it," Harry said, "I can give you a few flowers every month, as long as you like it."

Harry smiled, put down the book, conjured a green vase, and put the bouquet in it.

"What are you looking at again?" Severus asked, sitting next to Harry.

"I haven't finished reading the book this afternoon. By the way, I'll borrow the lab tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to make Sither Potion." Harry said, leaning on Severus, "Severus, the cellar of our house Is it big enough?"

"Uh, instead of worrying about this, why don't we go and see sometime? If it's not enough, we can buy more?" Severus kissed the top of Harry's hair.

"Okay, Sev, I think we're going to have a nice reading time with an hour until the party? You'll like this." Harry pulled out a book and held it out to his partner.

"On the Stability of the Soul"!

Severus had wanted to read this book for a long time, and saw it in an old catalog when he was in school, but even the Hogwarts library didn't have it.He also sought out many nobles for Voldemort's soul potion.

library, but the name of this book frequently appeared in some books describing soul spells, sometimes, just a few sentences, but it would lead to Severus's inspiration, so Severus would look for it.

"Harry, I think, I'd rather be able to help you and the children." Severus didn't reach for the book, but said softly with a slight frown.

"Sev, a great soul pharmacist has given us the greatest help. My research on souls is not thorough. Even if I have additional souls, I can't exert their maximum effect, but I have no way to study them in the short term. Soul. If you are not here, I don’t think I can trust anyone.” Harry stretched out his hand and rubbed his husband’s brow, “I will not and cannot study the children’s medicine without telling you, but that will have to wait for us After getting that prescription, as for the books about bloodlines I am reading now, it is just to make some preparations for the future."

"The future?" Severus murmured softly.

"Sev, I can't live with the magic core rejuvenation potion and white potion alone." Harry laughed.

Severus reached out and pulled Harry into his arms, the sudden weightlessness made Harry let out a low cry.

"You've grown up, Harry." Severus said contentedly, "Although I'm a little disappointed, I like you better now."

"Sev..." Harry took Severus's hand, which used to be so big that it could wrap around his hand, but not anymore, "Me too, I like you now."

The two hands are so harmonious when put together, as if they are the same person.Even if there are some scars left by the years, so what, in their eyes, each other is the most perfect.

They were both tired of the rough seas, and now they finally calmed down, and finally they still had each other, and that was enough.

……

In the quiet cellar office, the flame in the fireplace was still burning, silently warming the cold air in the cellar.Harry and Severus were each reading their own books, both of which were filled with very difficult ancient runes, but they were both completely immersed in it.The book was magically floated at the most suitable distance in mid-air, and Harry and Severus could turn the pages with just a silent magic.And Harry's hands interlocked with Severus's around his waist, a position that allowed them to feel each other's pulse and body temperature while reading.

Just as they were fascinated, the house-elf's cry brought them back from the world in the book.

"Um, Mr. Potter asked me to tell him the time is up at 9:45." The elf was very frightened by Principal Snape's stare, and said tremblingly.

"Okay, you go down, thank you." Harry said.

The house-elf looked at Headmaster Snape, not daring to do anything wrong in front of him, so he disappeared immediately.

"Okay, it's time for us to go to 12 Grimmauld Place. The elves should have arranged drinks." Harry said with a smile.

Without doubt, Severus took out the invitation letter, clasped Harry's hand, and whispered a word in a magnetic voice: "Harry!"

When the sound dissipated, there was no one in the quiet office, but a warm room remained. On this cold Christmas night, no matter what was waiting for the party to begin, as long as the two people in love held each other tightly hand, there will be no fear!

Ten fingers intertwined, holding each other for a lifetime.
