Harry lifted the last of the books from the box, and Severus paused a moment before vanishing it. He watched Harry slide them into place on the shelf, and when he didn’t turn around immediately Severus knew why. A wordless spell took care of the final box, and Severus took a step forward to wrap his arms around Harry’s waist from behind.

“Well?” he asked softly, leaning his cheek against Harry’s hair. Harry turned his head to smile at him, lacing their fingers together.

“It’s different,” he replied a bit wistfully, taking a long look around the room. Severus knew he was remembering their quarters at Hogwarts, and, at least in his own mind, he could admit that he was, too. But then he turned back to Severus, his smile brilliant, and Severus was abruptly reminded of why where they were didn’t matter. “But it’s home,” he continued, leaning up to give Severus a kiss.

Yes, it is, Severus thought, sliding his fingers through Harry’s hair and returning the kiss. As long as I’m with you.
