Undercover Romance-Chp8

*meanwhile Voldemort was grilling the 411 on Severus abt Harry/Kia*

Voldemort: C'mon, Severus. Tell us the truth. I don't think u are able to find a catch like tht in a library. Surely u found him at a brothel? *laughed along with the other guys*

"No, my Lord. He works in a library." His face was his normal one, but he really had insisted on them going home by now. "You know I would never be in brothels."

Voldemort: True, u wouldn't set foot there even with a 10-feet pole. Bt he is too cute to be a librarian. All librarians I see r old fogeys n decrepit spinsters, not a handsome fellow like that
Fenrir: Maybe he moonlights at a brothel *guffawed n LOL-ed*

"At once all those older people were young." Severus gave Fenrir a look of bordom, edging on disgust.

Voldemort: Oh aren't u the sunny disposition? Goes to show that they don't know how to take good care of themselves. Look at me, I'm borderline 50 n I still look amazing

Fenrir: U look no older than 28 at most, milord

Harry: *showed up in time n held Severus's arm* Wat hv I missed, my dear?

"They must focus on their books more then looks, my Lord." When Harry joined them, he smiled and not having to be here much longer. "Not much. Everyone thinks your just can be a librarian. That you are too good looking for that."

Harry: Oh well I'm flattered. Everyone told me I should be a medi-wizard or a Muggle model or be at least a product spokesperson icon or mascot for their products both muggle n magical, bt sadly Hogwarts hv beaten them all off n kept me hostage in their library. Apparently I'm too beautiful to be shared for the world n Hogwarts wants to keep me for themselves *laughed along with the men at his silly joke* I believe we hv to go, dear. I hv a late night shift at Hogwarts I simply cannot miss

"Yes." He nodded. "My Lord." He nodded. "I will see you soon and hope you feel happy now being engaged."

Voldemort: That's a shame. I would love to get to knw u more. Oh well, there will be plenty of times, now that we knw this old bat here is finally hitched. See u soon, Sev old boy

Harry: *walked away with Severus* Wow, for a high class bastard he sure is crass

"Just figuring that out?" He asked as they walked away. "They kept asking if I had found you in a brothel."

Harry: *chuckles* Them n every other man who sees me in the street... *bit his lip, remembering something Uncle Vernon had called him* ...Anyway that went more or less well, despite the setback

"It was a disgusting display of power." He said as they exited the house and then walked towards the gate.

Harry: So...shall I go home with u just for image sake, or shall we part ways here now?

"Image. I also want to talk with you."

Harry: *nodded as he followed Severus' lead* So...wat do u want to talk abt?

"You asked me why I was doing this." He said. "Have you figured out why I am betraying everything that I know?"

Harry: More or less. U did it for ur godson Draco. U don't approve the marriage n defecting is the only way u can get him out of the marriage, by having Voldemort arrested n executed

"Yes. I understand thar I might have to go to jail when everything is said an done, but that I'd the small price to pay to make sure Draco is safe and happy for once in his life."

Harry: I'm sure they will be able to cut u a deal. Reduced sentence or even jail-free pass altogether. U are going to put away the most dangerous criminal in the whole tri-state area after all. They can afford to cut u loose. I can vouch for u

"For my crimes I am fine will being put away." He said, letting his mask fall a bit but then it was back up. "It is Draco that I worry about. His own parents would throw him under the bus if they had the chance."

Harry: Don't worry. With Kingsley in office, he would not let that happen. And I would never let that happen. I'll take him in if I have to, n vouch for him. I promise u, as an Auror...n maybe his friend if it comes to that

"Thank you." He nodded to the boy. "That does mean a lot."

Harry: *smiled bk at him, a genuine smile this time as he unconsciously held Severus' arm a bit closer, all the way till they were at his home*
