Potter's Madness.

“Harry wants to have dinner with you at a perfectly respectable establishment. He's single, attractive, has financial independence and is genuinely kind. I don't understand your misgivings, Severus. It sounds perfectly harmless.”

“It's not harmless. It's... a date. He's talking about the most romantic wizarding restaurant there is, Poppy. He sent roses last week. And chocolates. I think he's trying to... woo... me.”

Poppy couldn't resist laughing.
“Merlin! You are slow, Severus.”

He gaped.
“You think Potter is...?”

“Smitten? Besotted? In love? Yes. I'd say he is.”

“He's mad, then.”

“Of course he's mad, Severus. But he's mad about... you.”

I agree with Poppy - Severus is slow, of course that Harry is trying to woo him. And please, Severus - maybe you are slow, but you are not stupid, so be mad, just like Harry is. Because love is a very good madness.
As always wonderful!

Hello there Myk! :D

Yes, Severus was being awfully slow in this one but, as you said, he isn't stupid. I'd like to imagine that he goes on that date with Harry and stays around long enough to discover that having the Boy Who Lived madly in love with him is precisely what he's always wanted... ;D

Thanks, as always, for taking the time to both read and review. Hearing from you never fails to make my day.
