“You and Harry seem happy,” Molly said.
Severus blinked. “Excuse me?”
“You love Harry.” Molly hummed. “It’s obvious to anyone with eyes.”
Severus hid his trembling hands behind his back. “You almost sound as if you’d approve of us having a relationship. If we did.”
“I approve of anything that makes my children happy. And I consider Harry my son.”
Severus coughed. “Even a decades older, former Death Eater?”
“Since it’s not in Harry’s nature to care about such things, neither do I.” Molly’s smile was dangerous. “But hurt him, and you’ll regret it.”
Suppressing a shiver, Severus nodded. “Understood.”
~
“You and Severus make a lovely couple.” Narcissa watched calmly as Harry spit champagne everywhere.
Once he’d collected himself, Harry said, “I’m sorry, what—?”
“Isn’t it common knowledge?”
“I…” Harry exhaled. “We’re not together.”
“Do you wish to be?”
“I…wouldn’t mind,” Harry admitted, sure his face was flaming.
“It’s not Severus’ nature to make bold, romantic gestures, so you shall have to.” Narcissa hummed. “As you’re Gryffindor, I foresee no problem.”
“I can’t just proposition him!”
“You can. You will.” Narcissa’s smile was knowing. “But when you do, if you hurt him, you’ll regret it.”
Harry shivered. “Yes, ma’am.”
~
“Enjoying yourself?” Severus asked as Harry approached.
Harry shrugged. “As much as can be expected at a Ministry function.”
Both men eyed each other.
“Would you—?”
“I was thinking—”
Harry smiled. “Go ahead.”
“No, I interrupted. Proceed.”
Harry licked his lips. “Would you like to get a drink somewhere?”
“That would be acceptable.” Severus coughed. “Shall we invite your friends along? They’re just over there—”
“I was hoping—” Harry exhaled. “Maybe double dating could happen later? It’s not natural to have first dates be…witnessed, it is?”
Severus blinked. “First…date?”
Harry nodded. “If that’s okay?”
Severus hummed. “More than.”
~
The somewhere turned out to be Harry’s flat, and as they drank and talked into the night, it felt natural, an extension of their friendship. And Harry decided Narcissa was right, Severus wanted a relationship.
But every time Harry gave Severus a chance to touch him, or kiss him, Severus hesitated.
Finally, frustrated, Harry, whispered, “Don’t hex me,” and leaning in, he pressed his mouth to Severus’.
The kiss quickly escalated until Harry was on top of Severus, and they were rocking together.
After coming in his pants, Harry drew back, watched Severus come in his, and smiled. “Bedroom?”
“Indeed.”
~
“Narcissa threatened you?” Severus shook his head. “I’d no idea she cared so much for my…sensibilities.”
“I can see Molly threatening you, though.” Harry curled closer. “She gets protective.”
Severus’ arms tightened around him. “She’s not the only one,” he murmured.
Harry rested his head on Severus’ chest. “Are we going to tell them we got together this quickly?”
“Are you ashamed?” Severus asked, going stiff.
“Not even a little,” Harry assured him, kissing his jaw. “I just want you to myself for a while longer. That’s natural, isn’t it?”
Severus relaxed, closing his eyes. “I suppose it is.”
