Aunt Mini

Harry’s team were all hugging each other, all but Jamie who stood back watching her brother and his friends.

‘Congratulations harry.’

Harry turned then flung himself at Severus until his arms and legs were wrapped around the potions master, then Harry kissed him hungrily.

‘Not the sort of display I want to see, but congratulations, you played brilliantly.’ Minerva smiled.

‘Thanks professor, it was fun. I told Charlie he wouldn’t beat Harry, no one ever does,’ Ron grinned, ‘But I really don’t want to see him do that with professor Snape.’

‘None of us do, but how could Harry choose him over me,’ Charlie flexed his muscles making everyone laugh.

‘If Harry chose you Charlie, you’d bruise him,’ Bill said.

‘You did well Jamie, maybe you can make the team,’ Lily hugged her daughter.

‘About the team,’ Severus said then lowered Harry to his feet, ‘Are you serious, you’re not going to play?’

‘No, I want to concentrate on my potions. I thought you’d like that.’

‘I do, I just know how good you are at quidditch. Well if you are sure Harry then Miss Weasley, I believe you are the new Gryffindor quidditch captain as Harry did say you wish to play professionally. You will receive your badge when the letters go out.’

‘Thanks professor and yeah, I do want to play professionally, thanks Harry.’

‘No problem, so are you going to allow Ron back on the team?’

‘Well,’ Ginny stared at her brother who looked hopeful, ‘He did stop me a few times, so I suppose he can be keeper. I wish I had Fred and George though.’

‘Sorry, we’ve got the shops to get cleaned up. When you lot have your Hogsmeade weekends, it’ll be open.’ Fred said.

‘I might have to place a ban on any Weasley products.’

‘Oh come on Snape, it’s just some harmless fun and you have to admit, some of our stuff even helped the war effort, ask Harry.’ George said.

Severus turned to Harry, ‘It’s true Sev, when we broke into the ministry, I used a couple of Weasley products, that’s how I got into Umbridge’s office and got Mad-eyes eye.’

‘Alright, they might have helped but you know what the students would do with those Weasley products, do you wish to receive another love potion Harry?’

‘Now that’s an idea,’ Charlie smirked.

‘I have to make sure I do not eat or drink when I’m at the Burrow,’ Harry stepped over to Molly and whispered.

‘Hey, not fair getting mum involved,’ George said.

‘You boys are in for it now, Molly will make sure none of you do anything to Harry, she loves to mother him,’ Arthur said.

Harry smirked then slipped his arm back around Severus, ‘Now I know I’m safe. But we need to put the brooms away then lunch, I’m starving. Quidditch always builds up my appetite.’

Severus leant closer to Harry and whispered, ‘I know of other ways to build your appetite up, not to mention other parts of your body.’

‘Oh Snape, that is not fair, look what you’ve done to Harry,’ Charlie smirked.

Harry turned until his body was facing Severus’ and away from everyone else so they couldn’t see his reaction.

‘You better follow through after saying that.’

Severus chuckled as he flexed his hips, ‘We’ll see, now I need to go back to work, you need to put the brooms away.’

‘Sev,’ Harry glared but he could hear all his friends chuckling, ‘You did that deliberately.’

‘Of course I did,’ Severus kissed Harry then let him go, walking towards the castle.

‘What have I gotten into.’

‘I asked myself that same question when I found out about you two. But I really need to return to work.’

‘Okay aunt Mini, talk to you later,’ Harry kissed her cheek before facing his friends, ‘So brooms and lunch.’

‘Do you think we could talk now Harry?’ James asked.

Harry’s face hardened, ‘Fine, it’s not going to make any difference to me though. Ron can you and the others take all the brooms and balls back for me, make sure you lock the shed?’

‘We’ve got them Harry,’ Ron took Harry’s broom then went into the broom shed with everyone that played. They all watched Harry as he walked stiffly away with his parents and sister behind him, ‘Let’s be quick in case Harry needs calming down.

Harry pointed to the Gryffindor table, waited until his parents and sister sat then sat down himself but kept a bit of distance.

‘So explain why you didn’t take me when you ran away and hid and don’t say it was to keep her safe, you could have taken me with you.’

‘When we first thought of leaving, after Albus explained about the prophecy, he said it would make no difference, that you know who…’ James was stopped by Harry cutting in.

‘He’s name is Voldemort and he’s dead, I killed him.’ Harry snapped.

‘Fine, Voldemort, Albus believed he would search the world for the boy in the prophecy. We knew it could have meant two boys but we also know just like Albus knew he would choose you. So we had to make a very hard decision, take you and we all die or leave you in the care of Albus and Lily’s sister then we’d have a chance at surviving. I would have stayed if Lily could be alone, she couldn’t, she almost died giving birth to you. We even spoke about never having other children so Lily wouldn’t risk her own life.’

‘You wouldn’t let your wife risk her life but you risked mine,’ Harry glanced at his sister who looked so much like him, ‘If I were you I’d leave them the moment you could, they’ll abandon you in a heartbeat. They care more about each other than their children.’

‘I don’t believe that Harry, mum and dad are very loving parents.’

‘I read people very well, I had no choice but to learn as I was in dangerous situations more times than I can count. I could easily prove it by cursing you and your mother right now, see what your father would do, save her or you, he would save her in a heartbeat and let you be cursed. Nothing you have said has made any difference, you don’t deserve forgiveness, you don’t deserve to be recognised, especially by me,’ Harry stood but noticed his friends all watching him but so was Severus and aunt Mini, ‘I’m good, I controlled my power so I didn’t wreck anything.’

‘I think professor Snape has a very calming influence on you Harry, it’s good to see, Ron and I could never calm you down,’ Hermione wrapped her arms around Harry and put her head on his shoulder.

‘I think it’s the way he snogs and the feel of is gorgeous body against mine,’ Harry groaned loudly making his friends laugh.

‘Then why I have a few minutes you get to feel that again now my love,’ Severus held his hand out to Harry who stepped out of Hermione’s hold and into his arms.

‘Does that mean you’re going to disappear or just hold each other?’ Ron asked.

‘I’m quite busy, so no, we are not disappearing. I need to assess Miss Potter’s skill to see which year she will be joining. Maybe you could help with that Harry?’

‘Me, how would I help babe?’ Harry smirked as he rubbed himself about Severus making the potions master close his eyes as all Harry’s friends laughed. Severus was right, he knew he would have a hard time controlling his young soon to be lover.
