Smiling, Harry watched Severus. I knew he’d spend summer days reading, he thought as Severus devoured yet another potion book. He seemed to go through at least one a day. It was their first summer together as a couple, and Harry was discovering things about Severus. Him being an intellectual shouldn’t really be surprising, though. “I can leave you alone,” he offered.
Severus looked up. “That’s not necessary.” He raised an eyebrow. “Surely you have summer reading.”
Harry nodded. “I could catch up on some work reading.”
As he settled next to Severus, Harry smiled. Hermione would be so proud.

Severus eyed Harry. He looked absorbed and Severus smiled. Harry was such a man of action, Severus often forgot he had an intellectual side. “Learning much?”
Harry looked up. “A bit.” He yawned and stretched, his shirt riding up, exposing bare stomach. Severus’ mouth went dry. “I’m ready for a break from reading, though.”
“What sort of break?”
Harry smiled. “A nap, perhaps?”
Severus hummed, recognising the look in Harry’s eyes. “I could be persuaded.”
Harry laughed. “I thought you could.”
As Severus set aside his murder mystery, disguised as a potion book, he smirked. Intellectual pursuits were sometimes overrated.
