Spouse Severus
~POV focus Severus~
Severus was annoyed. He did not want to get married. He did not want to be the submissive. And he especially did not want to be doing either due to the Potter brat.
Ok, he knows that Potter jr went off the radar after the battle and hasn't been seen for three years but it is easiest to blame this on him rather than address Dumbledore and his sheep's issues.
Severus looked around the pub and back to Lucius.
"You had better hope he appears soon, Severus. If he doesn't you could end up a slave or in Azkaban."
"I am aware, but I can't find the brat."
Severus saw a man who embodied tall, dark and handsome walk in the door and up to the bar ordering a drink. He watched him down a shot and then a couple more before turning back to Lucius.
"Have you seen that man before, Lucius. The magic community is small here and I have certainly never seen him."
"I have not, nor has anyone new moved here due to the law. Why do you ask?"
"I was just wondering."
~POV focus Harry~
Harry walked into the pub and headed straight for the bar ordering a shot of vodka, downing it and signaling for more he did so a couple more times aware of being watched. Harry slid the shot glass back and asked for a couple fingers of whiskey, getting up he spotted Severus and Lucius. He walked towards them.

"Severus, the man you talked about is walking this way."
"That is nice. I do not care."
"Aw, that isn't a nice way to greet your husband-to-be." The man said standing next to the table.
"I am unsure if you are aware but there is a law which dictates everyone in magical Britan must be married. I already have a husband."
"I was not aware it immediately married you. But glad to know you do not recognise your husband."
"I am married to Potter... surely you are not him."
"But I am, wonderful what potions and training can do is it not?"
Lucius looked at the man and drew the similarites from the old Potter and his parents.
"You have changed over the years, Mr Potter."
"Yes I have Lord Malfoy. As I said potions and training cam change looks. Snape, would you mind having a chat?"
"I suppose we must now that you have decided to reappear." He stood up finishing his drink as Potter did the same and followed Potter out of the pub to an apparation spot.
"Hold my arm so I can apparate us."
"Do not splinch me Potter."
Severus walking into Grimmauld Place following Potter and expected to see the dreary Black home but was surprised by the more modern interior although it was still dark it looked purposeful.
"Welcome to the new Grimmauld Place. Kreature and I cleaned it up and renovated it when I returned."
"That old thing is alive, and you worked with it?"
"Yes I did Snape. Kreature likes someone strict but not micromanaging, he also prefers cleaning and cooking to any other chores. He did not like Molly and never liked Sirius but having to live with them made it worse."
"I see. What did you need to talk about."
"Just arrangements, I do not know much about the law or what happens about our marriage. I do know it was not like a normal marriage with the submissive and dominant thing."
"Wonderful observation Potter. I am forced to submit to you. They would like us to live together and most couples are suggested to have a child. I am old enough we do not have to."
"Right, what kind of submit do you mean? Is it just in the bedroom or is it in general?"
"In general Potter. I have to kneel by your feet and in formal situations can only speak when directed to by you." Severus shifted uncomfortably.
"So we should live together, with the sitting by my feet we can probably get some comfortable cushions. We should get better wardrobes tomorrow."
Severus glared at him.
"Do not try to get me in bright colours Potter."
"I would not do that. But two things, one we should be on first name basis so call me Harry unless you need to all me something else. Two, I would not do something to make fun of you, I was planning on dark colours."
"Good. I suppose if you must you may call me Severus." Harry nodded.
"Alright Severus, the bedrooms are this way. My one is the only one I would suggest sleeping in at the moment but I will not stop you sleeping in another."
Severus followed Harry into his room and stood by the bed staring at it.
"Severus, here is one of my shirts and a pair of pants, yes they are clean. The bathroom is through the door on the left. Feel free to have a shower, you can use any of the products in there."
Severus tool the clothes and went into the bathroom for a shower, liking the smell of some of them he chose some to use. Getting into the clothes he found the shirt to be big but it was comfy big and the pants did not fit. He walked out of the room blushing a bit and gave the pants back to Harry saying that they didn't fit. Harry thought he looked cute with the bit of blush and his shirt on. They got in bed but stayed on opposite sides and finally fell asleep.
