Summary: I'll gladly accept every promise of yours...

Every promise of yours.

Severus knows that snaring Potter's interest won't require bumbling gryffindor boldness.

It'll require neither astounding beauty nor outright flattery. It'll only require... truth.

Potter won't welcome arm-candy or hero-worshipers. Temporary passion won't work, either.

Potter wants... forever.

Friday pub nights become a terrible torture.

He watches from afar, waiting for some suitable paragon to steal his Harry away, but... they are all so blind...

Everyone laughs when he finally approaches the boy.

“I promise plenty of tea and fireside conversation. Would you accept that from me, Harry?”

Harry's smile warms his heart:

“I'll gladly accept every promise of yours, Professor”

Awww! *nods* Yes, I can see this appealing to Harry. He doesn't want a superficial relationship, he wants something real, and he'll get that with Severus. :)
Nicely done!

I'm glad you liked this one. Yes, Harry will definitely get what he needs from Sev and I think he knows that.
Thank you for reviewing! :)
