After the war, when Snape used to knock on his door, Harry would close his eyes and pray that when he opened it, Snape would be sober. Those nights were rare, but cherished. Harry wondered if Snape appreciated those nights like he did, not because the sex was better, but because Severus wouldn't act like he was running away from something, but rather like he'd found a reason to stop running. One day Snape would stop running for good and Harry knew the foolish Gryffindor in him was brave enough to wait it out.

Harry shivered and hugged his arms around himself. He leaned back against the tree and looked at the grey sky, bleak like his mood.
"You should come inside, you know." Harry jumped, he hadn’t heard Snape approaching. "It’s cold out."
"It’s kind of pretty here." Harry shrugged and looked up at Snape and then back at the lake.
"Yes. It is pretty here." Snape sat down and folded himself around Harry.
“Do you mind if I stay?"
Harry didn’t answer, just unwrapped his arms and used them to pull Snape closer, basking in the comfort he found there.

Snape sighed. Harry propped himself up and studied his lover intently.
"Something wrong?"
"Only the usual trials and tribulations of being a teacher."
Harry rolled over and placed a soft, light kiss on Severus’ tightly drawn mouth. "I'm sorry."
Snape's lips lifted just a little, but it was a smile nonetheless. He wrapped his arms around Harry’s neck, snuggling closer to the younger man. "I just want to forget it."
Harry smiled seductively, "Let me help."
Snape grazed Harry’s lips sweetly with his own. As he savored the feel of his lover’s warm breath against his neck, he closed his eyes, whispering, "Thank you."
