Contemplation
Severus lay, leaning on his elbow, watching Harry sleep beside him. Reaching out, he gently moved a lock of hair so he could more easily see the boy's forehead and the jagged scar. His fingers trailed across one cheek to the small bruises his fangs had left on the slim neck.
He was unsure what to do about the boy. Severus sighed. He would have to release him from his oath, he knew that much, but he truly did not want to. He did not feel he deserved anything so pure and sweet in his life, but he wanted it. Wanted to keep and protect the boy.
He had closed the punctures, leaving no scars. If he was going to keep Harry, he should have left them, marking him for all the world to see. It could still be done, but he was reluctant to put a lasting claim on the boy. He knew that in making the oath, Harry had only done what he had to do to survive. His fingers moved lower along the boy's collar bone.
There were other marks, small bruises, love bites. Severus was sure that he sported several similar marks on his own neck and shoulders. That thought made Severus smile a bit. Their love making had been wildly passionate. The boy's reaction to his advances had quite surprised him. No one had ever reacted that ardently to him, even when he resorted to using a thrall on those that he fed from.
Harry moved, curling closer, snuggling against Severus' chest and sighing in his sleep. Yes, Severus thought, he would have to release the boy. But for now he would pretend.
He lay awake holding the boy till morning, making believe that Harry was with him because he really wanted to be.
End
