The two woke up the next day close to lunch; Severus sat up and ran a hand through his hair before looking over at Harry, lying on his back and snoring softly. He quickly got up and took a shower before returning to his bedroom. He went over to the chest of drawers with a mirror and looked in it. His hair was frizzy from not being brushed the night after he had washed it.

Sitting on the chair, Severus opened the drawer before him to look for his brush. He knew having a chair in front of his chest of drawers was a bit girly, but he didn't care. He was about to reach for his brush when a hand reached by him and picked it up before him. Looking in the mirror, he saw Harry looking back at him.

Silently, Harry picked up the hair gel that Severus himself made and rubbed some in his palm before running his fingers through the long hair; he massaged the gel in before picking up the brush and gently brushing the tangles out of Severus's hair. When finished, he reached for a hair tie and placed Severus's hair into a low ponytail, leaving a few strands loose.

Harry placed the brush down and kissed his cheeks before he turned and exited the room. Severus sat there for a few minutes, taking in what had just happened. None of his other lovers had ever brushed his hair before, and he felt cared for by such a little gesture.

Shaking his head, Severus stood and went out of the bedroom to the living room. Not spotting the other in the living room, he went to the kitchen, where he saw Harry standing by the stove.

"What are you doing?" Severus asked, walking over.

"I'm making Lunch, a French toast sandwich with bacon, egg, and maple syrup," Harry said, "I figured we'd eat something light then go pick Skye up," Harry said, and Severus paused, looking at Harry with wide eyes.

The younger man stood there in Pajama pants, a wild bedhead, and bare feet. The scene was so domestic that it made Severus's heart thump hard.

"Oh, thank you," Severus said as Harry handed him a plate before bringing his own to the table and filling two glasses with orange juice. They ate it in relative silence. With every bite Severus took, he would look up at Harry, seeing the younger look relaxed and smiling as he ate.

They finished their lunch, and Harry took a quick shower before they headed out of the castle. They were going down the path to Hogsmeade when a voice called after them. Turning, Harry looked back and saw Ron running towards them.

"Where are you going?" Ron huffed, taking a deep breath as he slowed to a walk and came closer to the two. "And with this..."

"Be careful what comes out of your mouth next, Weasley," Harry sneered, and Ron flinched. His eyes widened, and he looked back and forth between the two.

"I see, that's where you've been running off to. I thought you'd have a bit more faith in our friendship to know I would judge you for being gay or dating Snape. But you wouldn't know that as you haven't been around much lately. I thought we were best friends, Harry. But since the first month, I haven't been able to have a proper conversation with you, and I have been making excuses for you even though I have no idea what you're doing, just so the others wouldn't follow you around and snoop in your business. I've always supported you, but when I needed you, you kept running. I guess you had more important things to do," Ron said, and his shoulders sagged.

"Ron..." Harry started, but Ron shook his head.

"Don't, just don't. I'm going back to the castle," Ron said before turning around and pausing, "Enjoy your date, Potter," He said softly before he took off walking toward the castle.

"Harry," Severus said, as Harry stood there for a few minutes, not saying anything long after Ron had disappeared. "If you wish to go talk to him, you can," he said, but Harry shook his head.

"Let's go get Skye," He said, turning and continuing to walk Hogsmeade.

Severus took a breath and looked in both directions before following Harry.
