Summary: Harry persuades Severus to take a brief holiday.
Note: For ladybelz who wanted Harry/Severus, hiking.
"You want me to what?"
"Go hiking," said Harry in his most reasonable voice. "Walk through the hills. It's good exercise, and the views are supposed to be spectacular."
Severus arched an eyebrow. "And you have cared about scenery since when?"
Harry blushed. "Okay, so I'm not that keen on the scenery, but there's supposed to be colony of Welsh Greens in that area. I'd really like to see them."
Severus's second eyebrow rose now too. "Even worse. We'll be in danger not merely of breaking our foolhardy necks, but of being toasted to a crisp by a disgruntled reptile whose territory we've needlessly invaded."
"Oh, come on, Severus. I'm not planning to rob their nests, just observe them from a distance. If there's any real danger, we can Apparate away."
"Why not just Apparate there, too, if you're so keen to see them?" Severus inquired.
"You know how difficult it is to Apparate someplace you've never been. Besides, as I said, it's good exercise." Harry prodded Severus in his belly, which Severus grudgingly conceded was not quite as lean as it once had been.
"All right," he grumbled. "But if you trip and break your foolish neck..."
"I know, I know, don't expect you to help." Harry grinned. "No fear. I'll be very careful."
"I trust so." Severus would speak no more words to express the worry he had of somehow losing Harry, his beyond any rational hope.
