Big Step

~

They had a quiet evening, Severus feeding Azizi her potion while Harry cooked. Then, over a simple meal of spaghetti with Bolognese sauce, they discussed the house.

“That basement’s mine,” said Severus.

“We already discussed that, remember? You get the basement, I get the exercise room, and we both get that fabulous master and en suite.”

“Indeed.” Severus hummed. “And there’s plenty of land for the swing. Although we’ll need charms around the lake—”

Harry stared. “Swing?” he whispered.

Severus smiled. “For children.”

Harry tackled him, and between the kissing and crying, neither of them spoke for a long time.

~

That night, Harry stroked Severus tenderly, applying the potion to Severus’ cock with eager fingers. Severus responded beautifully, and soon, Harry was riding him.

Being on top afforded Harry the best opportunity to watch Severus’ facial expressions, which Harry loved. It also allowed him to bend down and kiss him, which Harry often did.

Afterwards, when Harry collapsed and Severus drew him close, Harry could feel shudders wracking Severus’ body. Drawing back, he looked at him, seeing a sheen of moisture in his eyes. “You okay?”

Severus sighed, his arms tightening around Harry. “Never better. Just…happy to be home.”

~

Harry’d just finished his tea when a knock came on the door. “Are you expecting anyone?”

Severus shrugged. “No.”

Upon opening the door, Harry immediately had an armful of Ginny. “You are back!” she cried, squeezing him. Then, she punched his arm.

“Ouch!”

“That’s for making me hear it from Mum!” Huffing, Ginny stalked past him, greeting Severus.

Penelope grinned. “Welcome back, partner,” she said, giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

“Thanks.” Shaking his head, Harry watched Ginny chatting amiably with Severus. “Oi, how come you didn’t hit him?”

“Because he’d hit me back!”

Harry laughed.

~

“Damn, so Percy was innocent? It was all Umbridge?” Ginny cried.

“Evidently,” said Severus, absently petting Azizi.

Ginny’s shoulders sagged. “This means I’ll have to apologise for bad-mouthing him when I go home next weekend. Fuck.”

“He was imprisoned in an alternate dimension,” Harry reminded her. “He probably deserves a hug.”

“Ugh.” Ginny made a face. “Must I?”

“Are you accompanying Ms Weasley?” Severus asked Penelope.

Penelope kissed Ginny’s cheek. “If she wants.”

“Absolutely,” Ginny whispered.

“If you return together, it will prove…distracting. You won’t have to apologise.”

“That’s not bad, Snape.” Ginny grinned. “You’re useful.”

“Thanks,” deadpanned Severus.

~

Once Harry appeared at MACUSA, Head Auror Marks welcomed him back with nod and a tight smile, and by that afternoon, he, Penelope, and Ginny were surveilling a wizarding drug ring operating out of the port of New York.

That evening, Harry got home to find Azizi draped over Severus’ shoulder while he cooked. “She believes she’s assisting me,” he said when Harry walked in.

Grinning, Harry first kissed her, then Severus, and when she didn’t claw him, he exhaled.

“Finally worked out how to placate her, I see,” murmured Severus.

Harry laughed. “It was only a matter of time.”

~

The house seemed as perfect as the first time they’d toured it. They took Azizi with them, and she began exploring the moment Harry set her down.

“Will she come when called?” Else asked as Azizi mewled, scampering away.

Harry smiled. “Possibly. Although we’ve a tracing spell on her just in case.”

Else nodded. “Smart.”

“Born of experience,” murmured Severus. “May we see the contract?”

“Yes.” Handing it over, Else said, “Take a moment to look this over. I’ll be outside if you have questions.”

Once they were alone, Harry clasped Severus’ hand, kissing him. “Ready to do this?”

“Quite.”
