------------------

The unused pregnancy test stared at him, and it spoke to him: of the possible futures. Harry squished his upset stomach, his worry making it churn. Sitting on the toilet, he contemplated what Severus would say if the test was positive.

There was an implied agreement that no children would result from their union. Severus wasn't interested in raising children in his forties, and Harry had shoved down his desire for a family. If it meant spending his life with Severus, then Harry could go on without children.

But now here he was, unsure of what would come next. He picked up the pregnancy test and pissed on it. Waiting for 2 minutes felt like an eternity.

Harry squeezed his eyes shut before picking up the stick. With a heavy sigh, he opened his eyes and saw the two lines.

Fuck. What would he tell Severus?

Harry wrapped his arms around himself and felt tears run down his cheeks. A sob escaped from his chest. He couldn't stop crying.

There was a knock on the lavatory's door.

"Are you alright?" Severus inquired in a concerned tone.

"F-fine," Harry said, and he flushed the toilet.

Severus was waiting for him and he frowned when he saw Harry.

"You don't look fine. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Can you just drop it for right now? I'll tell you when I'm ready."

"Alright." Severus gathered Harry in a hug and kissed his head. Harry shook with conflicting emotions.

"I love you." Harry squeezed him back.

Severus whispered back the words.

Maybe everything would be alright.
