The next day was the day they planned to deliver magic power to the half-finished Sorcerer's Stone, and Snape arrived as scheduled.It's just... Snape gave Harry a puzzled look when Sirius knocked on the door for the third time.

"I... Sirius asked about the two of us yesterday, I didn't intend to hide it, I told him. Are you angry?" Harry looked at him cautiously, afraid that Snape would blame him for taking things for himself.

Snape opened his mouth in shock, took a deep breath, and raised his head towards the door, signaling him to deal with the silly dog ​​outside first.

Harry hurriedly pulled his godfather out to appease him, and promised again and again that he would not do anything beyond the mark, and then Sirius left lazily.

When Harry turned back to the alchemy room, Snape was staring at the window.Harry walked over nervously, tentatively wrapping his arms around his waist from behind, but the other party did not push away.

"Are you angry?" Harry continued the previous topic.He was a little worried that Snape would flatly reject his affection because of his publicity.

"No…I" Snape continued after a pause "I'm just surprised"

"What?" Harry asked suspiciously.

"Surprised you would say that," Snape replied softly.

For a moment of rigidity, Harry turned Snape around and looked straight at him, wondering what the other person was thinking "...are you questioning my feelings for you?"

"No...I, I know. I can feel it, it's just..." Snape is not a person who can express his emotions, he can see himself in Harry's eyes, it's just...he feels more, it's a child Feelings resulting from attachment.Snape preferred to believe that after the confusion of the rebellious period, he would be sensible, get rid of this attachment, and the boy would leave and find someone more suitable for him.

"I see..." Harry sighed deeply, "You always think that I will leave you, that I will forget you when I grow up, don't you?"

"You are young, you don't have enough knowledge. When you leave school, you will find that there are better choices. There are more beautiful and beautiful girls or boys. They are passionate and that is the right partner for you. Not like me " Snape tried to reason with him that the boy was only a teenager and he shouldn't have tied himself to him in a hurry.

Harry was blowing up inside, but he reminded himself to stay calm, knowing that Snape was waiting to argue with him so that it would prove how inappropriate they were.

"I..." Harry really wanted to tell him that he is not a minor and he has the ability to handle his feelings, but he swallowed the words with a pursed mouth. "You know? I'm also afraid of you leaving"

"What?" Snape looked at him incredulously, as if he had revealed some shocking truth.

"Have you ever thought about where you are in...?" Harry looked at him deeply, and then said, "The youngest head of Hogwarts, the vice-chairman of the Potions Association. not necessarily achieved”

"So... you think..." Snape was a little dazed, "You're different, you're..."

"Savior, you know that's just a name," Harry interrupted.

"I know your excellence, in the future you will...maybe achieve greater achievements than Dumbledore," Snape said pertinently.

Harry bent the corner of his mouth, leaned forward and asked for a kiss, "Thank you for the compliment"

Snape focused again on the little troll, and sighed helplessly, "Forget it... I don't count on your Gryffindor's weird thinking, let's get down to business first."

Harry stuck out his tongue with a smile, and followed him to the magic circle to watch him channel his magic power.Snape was really good, he learned to cut off most of his magic power the second time, Harry licked his lips regretfully, it's a pity that there can't be another, lingering kiss.

After the magic power was disconnected, Snape was a little tired. Harry's magic power was too huge, even if he didn't feel the pleasure of magic power fusion, he still felt quite a bit.

"Sleep for a while?" Harry asked.

Snape shook his head, "Go back and turn off the fire."

"Can you take me?" Harry asked expectantly.

"You haven't explained what it smells like on me." Snape shot him a glare.

"I...I...I'm afraid I can't find you...I...was wrong" Harry said aggrievedly, his green eyes looked at him innocently, as if he was about to cry.

"You troll head, come here." Snape reprimanded him, and waved his hand in a compromise, motioning him to turn into a fox and follow him.

Harry smiled in surprise, and threw himself forward for another kiss, then honestly transformed back into a fox and put it in his pocket.

At noon in Spider's End Lane, Snape was making the final brew. After turning off the fire, he put in a drop of cuttlefish juice and stirred clockwise three times, waiting for the potion to cool down.Snape went downstairs first, and Harry had just finished frying the steak and beckoned him over for dinner.

After the meal, Snape filled out the potion and took out the Hufflepuff gold cup.Harry added a space technique to the golden cup, took the potion and poured it on the cup. In an instant, black air filled the space Harry set up. The two took a step back one after another, watching the soul piece struggle and disappear in the space.

"Are you all right?" Harry first asked Snape if he was affected by the soul movie, Snape shook his head, and then Harry withdrew the space, allowing the golden cup to be exposed to the air again.

Snape studied the golden cup repeatedly with dragon leather gloves, and there were shallow burn marks on the wall of the cup, which proved that their potion had failed.

Snape remained silent, but he could see that he was still slightly disappointed. He put the gold cup back into the box, and continued to search for information to compare with his own data.

For a Potions master, the most comforting encouragement after a potion fails is not in words. Harry sat next to him, accompanies him to sort out the results and analyze the data.

After all, Snape gradually became sleepy because of the magic power delivered in the morning. Harry took the parchment out of his hand and dragged him back to his room to sleep.Harry kissed his forehead, and Snape moved dazedly towards him, and soon fell asleep.

With a book in hand, Harry sat on the edge of the bed to accompany him to sleep, and Snape woke up after turning over 30 pages in the book.

"Are you up?" Harry asked.Snape grunted, then got up and leaned on the back of the bed to wake up, who would have thought that Harry would hug him with the quilt after a while.

Harry kissed his ear and did nothing else, Snape froze for a moment, then leaned lazily on him in a daze.

Half an hour after Snape got out of bed, Snape secretly complained that he was more and more helpless, as long as he faced the green-eyed troll, he always forgot his persistence.

The two of them still spent the afternoon sorting out the materials, and they ate casually for dinner. After dinner, the two of them were busy with their respective affairs. Suddenly, the burning sensation from Snape's arm made him stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Harry asked him, looking up.

"The Dark Lord called me." Harry's face changed drastically, and he only finished the gold cup at noon. Could Voldemort have noticed this?

"Don't think too much" Snape knew what he was thinking from his expression, he thought carefully about the problem that it was unlikely to be a soul movie, but just in case he still had to make two preparations "Go get rid of the gold cup, and Dumbledore reports the situation, you go back first, and pay attention to your own safety"

"I'll wait for you" Harry was really worried about him.

"Okay" Snape looked at his worried eyes and had to compromise, "Contact Dumbledore, I have to go"

"Be careful with everything." Harry took his hand and got up and kissed his lips. He sent Snape out very worriedly, and after seeing that his Apparation disappeared, he turned and went into the room to contact Dumbledore.

Snape apparated to the outside of Malfoy Manor, and the manor was brightly lit, so blatantly and blatantly at this time, we can see Voldemort's arrogance.

A dance was being held in the manor, and there was melodious piano sound in the hall. Snape went up the stairs and met Peter who was waiting for him on the porch. The mouse looked at him timidly, as if he was afraid of something.

"Master is inside, you go in quickly." Snape said, and knocked on the door.The door opened from the inside, and it was Bella who had cleaned up, with a haughty look and contempt in her eyes.

Snape was puzzled in his heart, he only nodded to her, and entered the room warily.

"Severus, come here." Voldemort was sitting in the middle of the study, beside Draco who looked flustered, and Narcissa who looked pale, and Bella followed him and closed the door and entered the room.

"Master" Snape stopped at the arch, and after greeting Voldemort, he walked forward slowly, standing a little far away from Malfoy, mother and child.Bella walked behind him, walked behind Voldemort, and looked at him with a half-smile.

"I just found out some interesting things, and I want to ask you to understand the situation." Voldemort got up slowly and approached him.

"Master, tell me." Snape lowered his eyes, waiting respectfully for Voldemort's question.

"I learned something interesting from our new friend..." Voldemort beckoned to Draco, and Draco took a few steps forward without blood. "I heard that you have a very close relationship with that boy... yes ?"

Snape felt his heart stop for a moment, but he forced himself to calm down and looked up at Draco with a rather surprised look.

"Master, I don't understand. If it is about teaching the boy, I have reported it to the master. It is Dumbledore's arrangement." Snape turned his gaze back to Voldemort, and he looked at Voldemort calmly, expressing Look completely innocent.

"Yes, I do know, but..." Voldemort's pale fingers clasped Draco's shoulders and pulled him closer. "Draco told me something that surprised me."

Draco was shaking all over, he didn't dare to look up at anyone, Voldemort dug out a lot of things from his mind, and he couldn't explain it at all.

"Master, please make it clear," Snape replied calmly.

"That boy likes you." The red light in Voldemort's eyes looked back and forth at Snape, and Snape's eyes were filled with emptiness, but he expressed utter surprise.

"I don't know how Mr. Malfoy came to such an absurd conclusion." Snape gave him a cold look, showing a sneer at the topic, "I followed the master's order to investigate the boy, and what I did For the master. Mr. Malfoy has seen my attitude before, I don't understand why you have such an idea, is it just because I didn't have time to save your father?"

It is easy to add the feelings of the memory owner to the memory seen from other people's minds. Snape just wanted to make sure that this was just a figment of an ignorant child.Draco trembled even more, he naturally remembered that Snape locked him in the cellar, he was dissatisfied that his father had made this friend, and he felt unworthy of Harry's trust.

Voldemort naturally knew what he wanted to know from Draco's mind. He asked Snape this question today, was it really because of this obviously emotional subjective memory.He waved for Bella to take Draco and Narcissa to leave first, while he paced back and forth in the room.

"Back then you begged me for that mudblood woman, will you beg me for that woman's son now?" Voldemort stopped in his tracks, staring at Snape with a pair of red eyes as if making an evaluation.

"If it wasn't for him...moreover, I and his father are enemies. Master, you know that I am willing to serve you." Snape looked directly at Voldemort's scrutiny, proving that he had no second thoughts.

"Yes, yes, you have always been capable." Voldemort nodded, "But... Severus, should you have a wife? Compared with a mudblood, a lady from a pure-blood noble family is worthy of you "

Snape's hands hidden under the black robe trembled unconsciously, he took a deep breath, lowered his eyes, "Everything is up to the master"

"Very good." Voldemort patted him on the shoulder, approvingly, "You know the daughter of the Selwyn family, I believe you can get along well."

"Yes, Master" Snape replied calmly.

"Go, go find Peter, and let him take you there." Snape bowed his head and exited the room, seeing Peter poking his head at the door, and smiling obscenely when he came out.

"Miss Selwyn is waiting for you in the room, come with me." Peter timidly led the way, and Snape followed him expressionlessly.

Peter stopped outside the inner room on the second floor and knocked on the door. The door opened from the inside, and a young and beautiful girl stood there awkwardly.

"Professor... long time no see" Yaharriet Selwyn had been a student of Slytherin, and it had been six years since she graduated, and Snape hadn't seen her for a long time.

"Miss Selwyn" Snape nodded at her.

"Have a nice night, both of you. I'll go first." Peter smiled strangely, bowed and left the aisle.

"Professor... come in." Selwyn looked very embarrassed, and she reluctantly turned sideways to invite Snape in.

The door was closed, and while Snape was talking to Selwyn casually, he winked at Selwyn, Selwyn nodded and cooperated with him, Snape took out his wand and checked whether there was a listening spell in the room , then cast an Anti-Listening Charm and Anti-Spell, and cast a Confusion Charm on the space between him and Selwyn.

Snape should be thankful that the Lestrange family has no girls of the right age, and the Selwyn family, although they support the pure-blood theory, have always been neutral. The only Selwyn family is Jaharriet Selwyn His father followed Voldemort, and his wife and daughter were not very happy.Moreover, Yaharit Selwyn had a Ravenclaw lover when she was in school. She was born as a bastard, so she encountered family opposition, so the two have not married so far.In order to win over the Selwyn family and stabilize himself, the Dark Lord came up with a way to marry, but I am afraid that Selwyn himself is not happy with this marriage. Snape wants to bet that Selwyn himself does not accept it wholeheartedly. Her father's arrangement, bet on her pursuit of her own destiny.

"If you are not satisfied with this, just listen to my arrangement." The two were relatively close, Snape said softly.

"I...I'm worried..." Selwyn looked sad. She was naturally unwilling to become a pawn and marry a professor who was about the same age as her father, but she was even more afraid of being discovered by the Dark Lord.

"If you are found out, I will take care of the matter. You just need to answer me, are you willing to take this risk for Anderson?" Kyle Anderson is Selwyn's lover, and she couldn't help being sad when she heard the name. After a while, he made up his mind and nodded.

Snape breathed a sigh of relief, having a collaborator was less likely than him being discovered with a spell.

"All we need to do now is go outside, how's the garden?" Snape asked.

Selwyn nodded.Snape extended his right hand to invite her, Selwyn put his arm on his, and they walked out of the room hand in hand.

The two of them chatted casually occasionally, showing the illusion that they had a happy conversation for the eyeliners in the manor.Snape served two glasses of champagne, and the two walked down the aisle to the garden together.

"I don't understand why the master introduced the daughter of the Selwyn family to him." Bella stood by the window and watched the two talking in the garden from a distance.

"Master's decision, be careful," Narcissa replied softly.Draco looked not far away with a pale face, holding the wine glass tightly in his hand, feeling more and more worthless for Harry.Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling sad. If it wasn't for his family, he wouldn't have been engraved with this humiliating mark, and had to... endure such pain.

Late at night, Harry turned into a fox and squatted at the window, staring out the window. Spider's End Alley was located in a slum, and the air was filled with various odors, which made the fox even more restless.

Suddenly there were two strange noises in the quiet night. The fox eyes of night vision caught the source of the sound very keenly. Two figures appeared in the dark alley, one tall and one short. The one...was Peter.Harry narrowed his eyes, turned and ran upstairs.

"My place doesn't like to be disturbed, I don't want noise, and I don't want people to enter my potion room, you just stay in the house, I don't want anyone to find wanted criminals in my house." Snape opened the door Said indifferently.

"But the master asked me to assist you," Peter argued cautiously.

"Do you know potions or can you write papers?" Snape opened the door and turned to look at him indifferently, scaring Peter into a shiver, "Come in."

Snape led him into the drawing room, lit the fireplace, and was relieved to see no sign of movement.

"I use all the rooms upstairs, you live in the storage room under the stairs, clean it up yourself, I don't want to see mess... Also, please don't become a mouse, I have live herbs in the potion room, In case I accidentally cut you..." Snape warned.Peter hurriedly agreed tremblingly.

"I'll go upstairs first, it's up to you," Snape said before walking upstairs.

As soon as the door of the bedroom was opened, the little fox sat on his bed and squeaked. He wanted to jump into the owner's arms, but suddenly the extra smell made the fox stop.

"Leave quickly, don't come back again, and tell Dumbledore that the situation has changed." Snape closed the door with his backhand, hurriedly cast an anti-tapping spell, and turned on the lights in the room.Snape hurriedly opened the window to see the fox away, but didn't notice the fox's strange behavior.The fox sniffed deeply again with his nose. The smell of perfume was not the smell brought by passing by in the air, but the lingering fragrance left by long-term contact.The smell on his right arm was the strongest. He never knew which Death Eater Snape had such a close relationship with. Even at the Hogwarts ball, Snape rarely participated, let alone any woman. We had a great time holding hands and talking.

"Come here" Snape looked at the dumbfounded fox and frowned. He was a little anxious and worried, and his tone was a little impatient, but he was afraid that the little troll would get emotional, so he opened his mouth and added, "I'm fine, you leave first, I'll find you sometime, okay?"

Snape had never been so patient in coaxing people. To his relief, the little fox finally jumped off the bed and ran towards him. Float the fox out of the window.After the little fox landed safely, they stared at each other silently. After the fox ran around the corner and disappeared, Snape slowly looked away. He sighed wearily.

The author has something to say:

The relationship between two people still needs to be adjusted. After all, one hides many secrets, and the other is not good at feelings. They will quarrel, quarrel, and reconcile like ordinary couples...

As for the young lady who came out suddenly, it has no effect on the relationship between the two of them. If there is something to say, it is someone who is jealous and asks for benefits. The young lady is very good and she has a boyfriend~
