Authors note: I'm sorry that I haven't updated in awhile, but I'll try my best to update more often. It will be a little tricky finding the time to do so since I'm back on the road travelling. Also I'd love to hear what you all think of it in the comments.

Harry woke up to sun streaming through the dusty curtains in his room in Grimmwald Place. Today was the day that he would reveal the truth to his friends. He jumped out of bed and got dressing in too big jeans and a baggy t-shirt that he got given from his over weight cousin.

Once dressed Harry went down stairs to find breakfast and saw that everyone was already sat at the table waiting for him. Harry walked to the table and sat down whilst piling food into his plate. He began eating when Snape spoke.

"So harry how are you feeling about today?" Said snape

Harry swallowed what he was eating and replied to Snapes question. It's going to take some time referring to Snape as father he thought to himself.

"A little nervous I guess. I'm just worried what they're going to think" Harry replied.

"I'm sure they'll be accepting of it and if they're not then they were never really your friends." Remus Said.

"Thanks Remus" Said harry.

Once harry finished eating it was time to go to diagon alley to get his school supplies and catch his friends up on the latest drama to do with his life. Harry stepped into the floo system and when he got out of the floo he was in diagon alley. Soon after he arrived Remus, Sirius and Sna-father were there behind him.

Harry began walking towards the leaky cauldron where him and his friends were to meet. Harry walked into the leaky cauldron and saw his two best friends Ron and Hermione sat at a table waiting for him. He took a deep breath and made his way towards them. When they spotted Harry walking towards them Hermione ran up and gave harry a bone crushing hug.

"Harry we were worried when we heard you left the Dursley's before you were meant to" Hermione said.

"About that I've got something to tell you guys and you have to promise to hear me out before you explode asking questions." Harry said.

"We promise mate. After all what are friends for" Ron said.

"Okay let's start on the day of my birthday. It was just a normal day at Grimmwald Place when I felt a pain and a few minutes later Remus came running in to see what was the matter with me because I was screaming out due to the pain, when I awoke Remus was there and I asked if it was a creature inheritance. As it turned out that my father was a werewolf which makes me a werewolf now as well. But as it so happens to turn out my real father is snape." Harry explained to Ron and Hermione.

"Actually come to think of it you look a little like snape now. I can't believe I didn't notice right away." Hermione Said.

"That's because I had a glamour in place until now. I took it of so you could see that what I'm saying is true." Harry explained to Hermione who had a look of bewilderment on her face.

"The reason everyone believed I was James and Lily's son was because snape wanted to protect his mate and only son me from Voldemort. He joined Voldemort so he could protect his family. James went into hiding with lily to help protect her and me from Voldemort's followers. When snaps found out what happened he was devastated. When he first saw me in school he was shocked at how much I looked like James even though that's what he wanted it broke something inside him. He truly thought that I was James's son. That's why he 'hates' me but it was all just an act to fool everyone into believing the lies he and the Maunders told. Snapes mate was lily and my father." Harry concluded. Hermione and Ron had a look of shock and sadness written across their faces.

"I know that it's a lot to take in, especially the part where I am now a werewolf and will have a mate, but I hope you'll be excepting of it. Oh and one more thing that I haven't told you is that i-I'm gay." Harry said.

" of course we will mate and we also knew that you were gay" Ron explained to Harry who had a look of worry on his face

"But how'd you know?" Harry asked a little shakily.

"When you had to dance with a girl at the Yule ball last year you looked really uncomfortable and the fact that you never really had an interest in any of the girls" Hermione explained to a shocked looking harry.

"Now that we've caught up on everything let's go get our school supplies" Hermione Said rather enthusiastically. Hermione stood up and walked out the door Harry and Ron followed with less enthusiasm as she. When the trio walked outside they say the Remus, Sirius and Snpae were stood there waiting for them to come out. Hermione went up to snape and gave him a hug. Snape looked shocked and very uncomfortable. Harry along with everyone else strod back and watched with a look of amusement on their faces.

"Harry explained everything and we forgive you for what you done in the past" Hermione said.

"Thankyou I guess" snape Said not knowing what to say. Hermione pulled back and whispered so no one else could hear and said
"I knew you were a werewolf for awhile now. I knew because every time a full moon came you had that week off and you looked sickly."
"You really are smart Hermione Granger" snape said as a reply to what she said to him.

"So how'd it go telling everyone" Sirius said  breaking the silence that had befallen the group.

"It went well Sirius thanks for your concern. Now we're off to get our school supplies" Harry said.

"Well then you best run along now since it's getting late" Remus Said.

"Oh and when your done meet us back here so we can floo back to you know where" Said Remus.

Harry gave them a thumbs up and disappeared in the crowd following Ron and Hermione to get his school supplies for the year ahead.

"What did Hermione say to you?" Remus asked out of curiosity.

"I don't know how but she figured out that I was a werewolf before Harry even said anything about it" snape Said.

"She really is the brightest in her year" Remus replied.

"Indeed she is" Sirius agreed.

Once the trio got all their stuff for school Harry headed back to the leaky cauldron to go back to Grimmwald Place. After all he had to start packing for the new school year  he couldn't wait to go back to Hogwarts since it was the first place that he felt like he belonged and it was home to him.
