The Agreement

I do not own anything except Leticia Thorne and her children. Severus Snape and the HP universe belongs to J.K. Rowling.

"Wake up Severus" Leticia whispered in his ear, kissing his neck gently around the still healing wounds

He smiled, shifting towards her half asleep. Last night had been good, few nightmares and no potions. One month had passed since the Battle and the world had begun to rebuild. But them, they stayed hidden. Her parent's home had become a refuge, with no one home from Italy yet to intrude on them.

"Why should I wake up?" he teased, pressing his foot into her calf, kissing her forehead

"Because the morning is beautiful" she kissed his lips, relaxing as his hands found her hips and moved her body on top of him, rock hard already

"You're beautiful, better than any sunshine" he murmured as she moved her hips into his pelvis, buzzing in pleasure as he sucked her sensitive nipples

Gods, he felt incredible. Knowing how to hit every spot, their contented breathing and moans elevating the experience to a nearly cataclysmic orgasm. She collapsed on top of him, tongue tracing the stubble on his jawline.

"You're going to spoil me" he teased again, slipping a finger into her folds

Her entire lower half vibrated as he brought her to a quick and powerful orgasm, face hidden in the pillow.

"You deserve it" she told him a few minutes later, sticky and satisfied.

"I love you Lettie...I wish we could stay this way forever" he told her softly, kissing her temple

"I love you too. And we can. My family doesn't have to know you've escaped if you don't want to tell them. Whatever you want to do, I'll follow" she assured him, sitting up to look in his deep espresso brown eyes

He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose

"I know what it's like to live in secret. Can your family keep my life a secret? It is an awful burden to carry"

Her family had skeletons aplenty, this one they would have no trouble keeping. Samuel met Severus before, albeit not under the best circumstances. Her mother met him by accident and passed along her blessings before they were even officially a couple. Her father kept his nose clean and pretended not to know anything, it was his best trait.

"They will do what is best for me. And what is best for me, is you" she explained, kissing his knuckles

"This is so much for you..." he muttered, guiltily biting his lip

"More than risking my life for you for the last seven years?" she deadpanned, sitting up in bed, quick cleansing charm, tying her long black waves into a top knot

He sighed, sinking into the pillows. He had given in, but wasn't happy about it. She knew he felt as if he were a burden but they were bonded, forever, and that meant she would wreck the world to make him safe and happy.

He would do the same for her, even if he felt he needed to go about it differently.

"I'm going to get us breakfast. Don't run away" she smirked, tying a knot on the hand stitched sapphire blue silk robe that Severus bought her for the overnight when they got married.

She wore it everyday as a reminder that one day, she and Severus would be able to be together. As if he were physically present.

"No promises" he joked back, making his way into the bathroom, lithe frame beginning to fill out without the constant stress of war
