All characters in the Harry Potter universe belong to JK Rowling. I'm just a devoted fan with an overactive imagination.

The snake pit

"You came back."

A cold hand took off his mask, long fingers caressed his face and lowered the hood of his cloak. A kiss on his neck.

"Stop it, Lucius" the dark-clad figure whispered taking a step back. "He's watching us."

Malfoy smiled. "You think he doesn't know about certain things yet? He's already fifteen."

"Indeed. He's still a child."

The man turned to his son. The boy was sitting in an armchair by the window, watching the scene eagerly. They smiled ambiguously at each other. "I don't think so." Malfoy embraced his guest, who only stiffened more in response.

"Are you worried about your authority as a teacher? Draco knows he must show respect for you whatever happens. He knows who you are."

"And who, pray tell, am I?"

"His esteemed Potions professor. The Head of Slytherin House. My fellow Death Eater." Lucius leaned in until he brushed his companion's lips. "My lover."

And Severus Snape surrendered as always.
