Harry P.O.V
I sat between Fred and George as the meal progressed. Dirty looks came my way from theGryffindors, Ravenclaws and Hufflepuff houses. "Ignore them Har, they're not worth" "Yeah, I know." I sighed and slumped in my seat. All these stares were getting to me and I began to tremble. "We've been here long enough." George said standing up "C'mon little brother." He pulled me along behind him as he marched out of the hall. Fred fell into step behind me as Neville and Luna brought up the rear. "Harry." I turned and sighed in relief as I saw Draco racing towards us. He wrapped his arms around me in a hug and held tight.
"I'll show you where the common room is. Follow me." We followed him down into the dungeons and straight to a stone wall. "Salazar!" Draco said and a door appeared in the wall. Pushing open the door, we piled into the room. Collapsing in chairs, I struggled to control my trembling. "Easy, Har." Fred whispered wrapping his arms around me. George joined in the hug and I sighed. Suddenly something struck me. They were always with me. They could comfort me. As the sudden realization struck, I gasped. One word crossed my mind 'Mates'.
I stiffened in their arms and they both looked at me. "Harry, you're crying?." Fred whispered "What's wrong?" I looked at them both before hugging them tightly. "How long have you known?" I looked at George as I asked. "Fred's known since first year." He replied. "What Fred's my mate?" "Yeah." George smiled "Kane is my mate. He's a death eater." "Um....." Draco trailed off "Are we missing something?" I glared as he placed a hand on Fred's shoulder. Reaching out I knocked it away and tightened my grip on the Fred. "Mine. All mine." "Oh!" He smiled "Sure thing Harry." I frowned at him. "Draco, can I trust you?" "Yes." He said looking me straight in the eyes. "Do you know how to brew a heritage potion?" "No but my dad does." He glanced at the door "May I ask why?" "My birth certificate. I'm not Harry James Potter." "But then who are you?" "Tomas Orion Salazar Severin........Malfoy-Snape" I whispered the last part but he still heard. "Is it really you?" He bit his lip after asking as though refraining from something. I nodded "I hope so." "Oh Merlin!" He tackled me. Hugging me tightly "I've missed you so much Tommy. You have no idea what it's been like without you." "Dray." I whispered softly as he held me in his arms. "They won't believe me." I looked up at him "I told mom and he....he called me a liar. Said I wasn't his son. I was Potter's spawn and nothing was going to change it." "Don't believe it." Draco said "I heard him tell father to keep an eye on you. He believes that you're not really their son. But he doesn't want to hope you are Thomas because he thinks you'll hate us." "Never. Never hate you. You protect me. You called for them that night. Always loved me Dray." "Always little brother."

I whispered keeping my arms around him. "You will never be alone again!" I swore as I held him tightly. "Thanks." His sounded close to tears. As I pulled back, I saw the watery eyes and the smile that graced his face. "I though you would hate me, so I didn't say anything." Thomas whispered, "I will never hate you." I smiled back at him "But you have to take me to get tattoos and piercings." "Deal!" He laughed.
We spent the rest of the week getting to know one another. I found out he likes to read and work on potions. He loves fruit and doesn't really eat meat. He awakes at half past six every morning and falls asleep around 11:00 every night. He sticks to his tight-nit group of friends and he doesn't trust easily. His favourite colour is Emerald Green and his favourite animal is a Snake. To be honest, I learned more about my brother in those 5 days then in the last four years I spent tormenting him.
It was now Saturday. We were walking through Diagon Alley after flooing through from Hogsmeade. "We're going to Knockturn Alley." He whispered reaching over and gripping my hand. Leading me through the streets and into a darkened shop. "Samuel!" A boy with green hair and purple eyes appeared from the back. "Heya Tommy. Here to get more ink?" "For my brother." Thomas pointed to me. "Alright then. Have a seat and we'll get started." He gestured to the leather backed chair and I sat down.
"What do want, where and what colours?" Samuel asked preparing a list.

Slytherin crest-right forearm

"Will that be all?" Samuel asked as he finished the last of the tattoos. It had taken a good three hours to do them all. "Piercings." I said. "Tongue, snake bites, upper right ear, lower left ear, belly button and right eyebrow." "Alright." Samuel set to work preparing the needed tools while I picked out the colours. I chose a silver tongue ring, black snake bites, green studs for the ears and a silver eye brow. I chose a curled dragon for my belly button. After several agonizing minutes Samuel pulled away and smirked "All done." "Thanks." I smirked and stood up. "Sam," Thomas smiled "I'd like a few more piercings done." Thomas lifted his shirt, "Can you pierce my hips?" "What colour rings?" "Black like the rest. Also I'd like a green piercing for my left eyebrow." "Sure thing mate." I stood silently until they were done.
Severus P.O.V.
I knew my son wasn't in Hogsmeade but I was not expecting him to come back from the village covered in tattoos and piercings. He walked beside Potter laughing and talking away. "Draco." I placed a hand on his shoulder "May I speak with you for a quick moment?" "Of course dad." Draco nodded "See ya Harry." Harry nodded with a smirk before sauntering off.
I lead Draco into my private quarters before pushing him into a chair. Using a mild sticking charm, I quickly opened the floo and called Lucius. After a few moments he appeared and I gestured to Draco. "What in Merlin's name?" "He was hanging with Potter. They came from Diagon Alley." I sighed ".Or more accurately Knockturn Alley." "Draco." "It's only a few piercings and tattoos besides Harry and I got over our differences and We're trying to get to know one another." Draco rolled his eyes. "He's under sus......." "I know." Draco rolled his eyes "He told me. If you really don't believe him, then call him here and give him a heritage potion." I looked at Lucius, "Could be a trap." "We'll try it." Lucius sighed "Dragon fetch the Potter boy." With a smirk, Draco sauntered out of the room.
