I do not own Harry Potter

It was with a tired sigh that Harry exited his bedroom later that afternoon. He had spent a lot of time thinking about what had happened with Sirius. He just couldn't understand how someone who was supposed to love you and protect you could act that way. Entering the living room he saw his parents sitting together on the sofa talking quietly. He smiled as he noticed the comforting hand that Severus had resting on Remus's knee and how their eyes were bright with happiness.

"I'm going to meet with my friends in the library." He said once he had gained their attention.

"Do you want one of us to walk with you?" Remus asked standing up and resting a hand on Harry's shoulder.

"No, I will be fine I want to take the time to think." Harry replied with a small smile before embracing Remus and grabbing his bag that he had set next to the door. He turned around when he felt a presence behind him and smiled up at his dark haired father.

"I would rather one of us walk you at least out of the dungeons. We don't know if the headmaster will be waiting for you to leave our rooms." Severus's dark voice washed over him and he nodded after a moment hesitation.

Severus nodded with a smile to his son as he kissed Remus before grabbing his cloak and leading Harry out of the room and towards the stairs that would lead him out of the dungeons.

As they walked Harry was lost in thought. He was nervous about the headmaster but that could be put to the back of his mind for a while he hoped. Sirius, Sirius was another matter altogether. How did he get the man to understand that he needed him in his life as his godfather not his father. He knew that Sirius though he didn't hate Severus as much still resented the man for his relationship with both Remus and Harry.

"Harry?" Severus voice brought him out of his thoughts. He was surprised to realize that his father had walked him all the way to the library and that he hadn't noticed.

With a smile he responded, "I'm fine, just lost in thought. Thank you for walking me here." He finished with a kiss to Severus's cheek before he entered the large oak doors immediately spotting his friends as he entered the bright room. No one knew other than those closest to him but he loved the Library it was the only place he could hide when he was with his relatives.

Cedric was watching the doors patiently waiting for his boyfriend to enter. He knew that Harry was meeting with his godfather and he hoped that it went well. He smiled softly when the doors opened and Harry entered his smile slide off of his face as he noticed that well Harry was smiling his eyes were dull.

"Harry, is everything alright?" He questioned as he stood up to meet his boyfriend halfway to the table, pulling him gently into an embrace.

Harry pressed his face into Cedric's chest and inhaled as his arms wound to wrap around his waist this was what he needed right now. To be around people who he knew would love him and take care of him. People who knew him at his best and his worst.

With a deep sigh he pulled out of the comforting embrace and smiled up at Cedric. "I will be." He murmured quietly before grasping his hand and leading him over to the table where the rest of their friends were waiting for them with varying degrees of worry written across their faces, we'll all but Ron and Hermione who were both smiling at the couple with understanding and love shining in their eyes.

As the evening progressed Harry relaxed and let his guard down. It was the weekend so he could spend the night with his fathers, which he was entirely grateful for. He had been having nightmares every night and had taken to sleeping in the same bed as either Ron or even Neville when he thought Ron needed a break. It was getting late and his eyes were starting to feel heavy when Cedric grasped his arm and started to lead him out of the library.

"Where are me going." He muttered sleepily to Cedric as the older boy wrapped his arm around his waist to help lead him towards his parent's quarters.

"You're exhausted, I am going to take you back to the dungeons where we can sit in front of the fire with your fathers and spend the rest of the night." Cedric said softly pulling Harry closer to himself as he felt the smaller boy shiver. It wasn't until he heard a throat clear from behind them did he realize it wasn't because he was cold but he had sensed a presence behind them.

"I must insist that you let him go Mr. Diggory, Harry and I have much to discuss." The headmasters voice came from behind them and Harry's entire body stiffened as his hand clenched the back of Cedric's shirt unconsciously which caused Cedric to tighten his hold on Harry.

"It is getting near curfew headmaster." Cedric replied without turning around. "Harry is tired we are going to go see his dads before bed." As he started leading Harry away from the headmaster he felt Harry tense more before he spun around and threw up a shield charm around them both as a spell smashed into the invisible force field around them.\

"I believe I gave you an order Mr. Diggory, I will not repeat myself." The headmaster growled his eyes flashing dangerously as he moved forward. He stopped as he felt a wand being pushed into his back.

"I believe headmaster that Harry is going back to the dungeons." Ron's cold voice came from behind him. As the headmaster turned around to confront the boy who dared try to attack him he froze. Not only was Ron standing behind him his face a Stoney mask of fury and his lips curled back into a snarl, the entire population of students who had been in the library and the librarian were watching the scene with varying degrees of shock and horror on their faces.

"Harry, why don't you go with Cedric yeah? Hermione and I will see you later he won't hurt you." Ron's voice broke Cedric out of his shocked state at seeing Harry's best friend pull his wand on the headmaster. He smiled and gave a short nod to Ron before he gently pulled a still tense and terrified Harry from the scene.

Once Harry was out of sight Ron lost his composure. "What the hell were you thinking old man? I don't care who you are, what your role in this school is if you go near Harry again without his Father's you can be damn sure that I will not hesitate to hex you consequences be dammed!" by the end of his little speech Hermione had joined him.

"Harry has been through enough, you are causing him more pain. I am in totally agreement with Ron, stay away from Harry headmaster. And try to punish him for this we will have you in front of the school board for harassment, attempting kidnapping and emotional abuse before you can utter a single word. Good night." Hermione grabbed Ron's hand and walked away from the gaping headmaster. Moving quickly they headed for the Room of Requirement where they would spend the rest of the night sitting in silence just holding each other.

Harry and Cedric moved quickly towards the dungeons, Harry being practically carried by his larger boyfriend as he processed what had just happened. As they approached the door to Severus's rooms it was thrown open and Harry was immediately taken from Cedric and pulled in Severus's arms as he moved them to sit on the sofa.

"Close the door Mr. Diggory and take a seat." Remus's soft voice brought Cedric out of his shock at how quickly Harry had been removed from his person. He moved into the room. Taking in the sight of Harry sitting astride Severus's lap his face buried into his chest as his body shook in fear.

"It's alright love." Severus muttered over and over again to his son. "We will get through this, I hear Ron told the headmaster off after you left, and that Hermione joined in on him as well. He will leave you alone for now." Severus tightened his hold on his son as he continued to shiver how could he keep going through this? Why did the headmaster and Sirius hurt him so much. Severus knew that this would set Harry back a little bit, but he hoped that with time and once the headmaster was out of their lives which he was hoping would be soon harry would learn to live a happy and healthy life. At least, that is what he kept telling himself as he continued to comfort his son well into the night
