Sebastian woke up the next morning being hugged together by Draco. He used his wand to cast a time checking spell. 5.00am. He'd woken up early again. He decided to spend some of his extra time admiring how pretty his Veela boyfriend was. Draco's platinum blonde locks fell into his face and were slightly messy. Sebastian definitely thought his hair looked better without all the gel. Draco didn't gel it back much anymore after finding out excessive Gelling can ruin your hair. He only gelled it back if he had to attend a fancy pure blood dinner party with his parents. Sebastian gently caressed Draco's cheek. Draco's soft pale skin was flawless and reminded him of porcelain. In the sunlight his skin almost looked like it was glowing he was so pale. His broad shoulders made very good pillows in Sebastian's opinion as he often found himself leaning his head on them when he got sleepy. Then there was the under package. The most surprising part. Draco was fairly skinny himself , so his abs had surprised Sebastian. Because holy Salazar abs like that should be illegal. His defined v-line was sinful. Draco had a habit of forgetting to take a shirt with him when he went to take a shower so often ended up walking around the dormitory shirtless , flaunting his amazing body. This often resulted in Sebastian literally throwing a shirt at him in a flustered gay panic. Draco was also very strong , Sebastian had trouble wriggling out of his arms. Draco had latched onto him with his iron grip. By some miracle Sebastian was able to escape Draco's arms so he could shower. He was glad he woke up before the others every morning due to his body clock being out of wack , because he was able to shower before the others woke up , avoiding the risk of them seeing his scars.
He grabbed his uniform and headed into the bathroom. He let out a sigh of relief as the hot spray of the water relaxed his tensed muscles. He usually just showered unless he was feeling really stressed out , then he'd take a bath with the scented candles and bubbles because they helped him calm down. He washed his hair with the vanilla and strawberry shampoo and conditioner before washing his body. He winced as he rubbed a little too rough , accidentally scratching one of the scabs off. It was one of the larger cuts on his back that hadn't fully scarred over yet , and now it was dripping blood. He started to panic. Shit shit shit. He stumbled out of the shower and clamped the towel down on the wound as best as he could. Thankfully the towel was black. Blood oozed out of the wound dropping onto the tiled floor. "Fuck..." he was glad that he'd at least brought his wand with him so he was able to send a patronus message to his dad. Although he didn't want his dad to see him naked so he ignored the pain and blood in favour off tugging his boxers and trousers on. Then he went back to holding the towel over his wound as he waited patiently for his dad. He was struggling not to pass out or throw up from pain. Or both. The other slytherins were shocked awake when Severus flung the door open storming straight to the bathroom looking panic stricken. He used Alohamora on the locked before slamming the door shut the second he entered. The lock clicked shut again. Draco and the other Slytherins looked at each other in confusion. Inside the bathroom Severus held Sebastian close to him and used a spell to start stitching the wound. Sebastian let out muffled screams into his dad's cloak , his hands clutching the black material like a lifeline. One of the other Slytherins had used Alohamora on the door before Draco could stop them. The sight the Slytherins were met with after peeking through the gap nearly made them throw. The sight of all the scars on Sebastian's back , and Severus having to sew Sebastian's wound up. The image of blood everywhere combined with Sebastian's screams was forever ingrained in there minds. Draco gagged in his mouth. That was his boyfriend...his boyfriend was in agony. Destiel bit his lip , deep in thought. Where did he get all those scars from? What else is he hiding... They quietly shut and locked the door again. Sebastian still had his face buried in Severus' shoulder , he was sobbing and shaking between muffled screams. Severus finished stitching the wound and bandaging it. He helped Sebastian out his shirt on and decided to for go the robes for now. He quickly cleaned up the bathroom and gave Seb a piggyback into the dormitory, gently placing him next to Draco. Sebastian instantly leaned against Draco's chest feeling woozy from blood loss. Severus whispered to Draco what had happened even though Draco technically already knew. Sebastian looked up at Draco with a dazed look. Draco kissed his head. "Go to sleep...you need to rest." Sebastian shook his head. Everything hurt and he couldn't sleep. Severus was about to leave but Sebastian instantly whined and clung to his robes. "D-Don't go p-please..." Severus sighed. "H-hug...please..." Sebastian whimpered. Severus knew that Sebastian would get upset when he realised he'd shown 'weakness' in front of the others so he tried suggesting they go somehow more private , but it just made Sebastian more upset. "Am I n-not good enough...is your r-reputation m-more important than m-me so much that you can't e-even hug m-me?" He cried out before pushing Severus away. "Fine! Don't hug me! See if I care. I hate you!" Severus was surprised and hurt. "Everyone hates me. I'm used to it. Sebastian , I never said I wouldn't give you a hug." Sebastian was no longer listening though. There was a distant look in his emerald eyes , and tears streamed down his face. He stumbled past Severus before collapsing from the pain and wooziness. He curled himself up in the corner of the room , hugging his knees and rocking himself back and forth. "Sebastian look at me..." Severus tried to calm the boy down but it had the opposite effect. "No! No! Don't come near me! Don't touch me! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Please! No more!" He cried shaking and pulling on his hair. Severus was at a loss for what to do. Sebastian hadn't had a panic attack this extreme before. Sebastian was so far gone he didn't recognise who was in front of him anyway. All he saw was Vernon coming towards him with a spiked belt. Purple faced and sweaty. Large meaty hands grabbing his head and neck pinning him down. The spikes tearing into his skin. Even though it was only a flashback Sebastian could feel it all. Agony exploding all over his body. Phantom pains. Severus tried to get close again but Sebastian just screamed , becoming more distraught. He was choking on his own tears and gasping for air. "NO! NO MORE PwEASE! I'M SOWWY! I'M SOWWY! NO! NOT THAT PLEASE NOT THAT!" In his mind he saw Vernon unbuckling his trousers as he was pinned to the bed and he knew what was coming. He screamed at the top of his lungs. He collapsed onto his side screaming and flinching. Black shadows appeared around him and Sebastian's pupils turned to slits. His green eyes glowing eerily. Random things started floating and the lights flickered. Severus was beyond worried but he had no clue what to do. Shadow somehow escaped her Vivarium and slithered towards Sebastian. Sebastian's eyes were glowing green and he started to giggle before hissing something in parsletonue. Kill the liars...kill them. All of them. Kill. Kill. Spook looked at Sebastian in confusion. But masssster...he issss not lying. Sebastian paused a little. Shadow was poised ready to strike if her master still desired , however she was looking at Sebastian for confirmation. Draco took the chance to do something insanely reckless that would probably kill him. But he didn't care. He ran across the room and engulfed Sebastian in a hug. Sebastian screamed and swords made of shadows appeared pointing at Draco. "Baby it's me...it's okay....just listen to my voice okay? I'm not that monster. I'm me. Draco. Your boyfriend. Don't be scared." Sebastian was whimpered in Draco's arms. His head started to bleed as two small black horns forced their way out of his head. Draco ignored the pain he felt in his back as blood ran down from his wings. His glamours has dropped when he ran across the room. Slowly the word "tainted" was enscrawled into the pale skin of his back. Blood dripping from the wounds. He didn't care. Sebastian was more important right now. "Baby are you okay?" He asked softly. Sebastian pushed him away and scrambled back to the corner. His ears flattened against his head and his tailed curled around waist. "Hey hey it's just me..." he tried to reach his hand out to Sebastian but the ravenette flinched always from him tiny whimpers leaving his lips. "N-no...don't touch m-me...you'll get h-hurt again...I h-hurt my b-boyfriend and tried to k-k-kill my d-dad...I'm a m-monster....I Deserved to be abused...I deserve...to d-die.." he whispered in a small voice as the swords from before pointed at his own body instead. They shot forward but before they could reach him Severus cast the Protego charm over Sebastian. He wrapped him in a hug. "Never say you deserved to be abused or deserve to die. That is not true. Sebastian look at me...you've been through hell and anyone who goes through that goes a little insane sometimes. Trust me. Your very strong to be able to control it as well as you can. You have nothing to fear child." Sebastian lowered his head and snuggled into Severus' arms , being careful not to impale him with his horns. "I didn't mean it...I don't hate you...I wuv you...daddy I'm sowwy..." he started to cry and shake all over again. "Shhh you don't need to apologise I know you didn't mean it..." Sebastian coughed and gasped for air. "Child , you need to calm down and take a deep breath...your going to make yourself sick." Sebastian started shaking his head quickly. "C-CanT...can't b-breathe...d-dad...can't...b-breathe..." he gasped out. Severus rubbed and patted his back not sure what else to do. "Adrien! Get Madame Pomfray." Adrien flinched at the sharp tone of Severus' voice but understood it was most likely from panic. He bolted out of the room. Madame Pomfray ran in and casted an array of complex charms until Sebastian was able to breath normally and had calmed down a little. He was pale and dizzy and laid in Severus' arms breathing heavily. A light sheen of sweat covered his forehead. "He has a fever and some sort of muggle affliction called Asthma? That combined with the heightened emotional stress he's under caused him to have an Asthmatic attack and a panic attack at the same time." Severus brushed back Sebastian's hair gently. "Is there anything we can do?" Poppy sighed. "There's not much you can do for the panic attacks , other than keep him out of situations that make him uncomfortable. As for the Asthma there is a muggle invention called an Inhaler that can deal with it." Severus nodded before carrying Sebastian to his bed. "Try and get some rest before breakfast." He patted Sebastian's head. Sebastian nodded and gave his dad a weak smile. Madame Pomfray then tended to Draco. Severus was wondering what it meant but he couldn't dwell on it for long. He had his son to tend to , set up for the first periods class and get to breakfast before the students did. Sebastian had already fell asleep so he left him in the care of the slytherins , giving them a death glare as a warning that if any harm befell his son then there would be hell to pay. After his back was healed Draco laid next to Sebastian with his arm slung over the ravenette's waist. The word Tainted still engraved into his back as a permanent scar. Madame Pomfray sighed and left the two to sleep. What was it with this school and freak incidents?

Severus groaned softly a hand pressed to his head. There was an incessant pounding agony that wouldn't go away and it was starting to bug him. He took a pepper up potion but it did nothing to relieve his headache or fatigue. He knew why... but he would never admit it nor would he ask for help or accept the only cure. All because of his past. Instead he suffered. He let out a pained hiss as he fell to his knees his vision swimming. He gripped the edge of the sofa trying not to pass out completely. At that moment the fire roared to life with green flames and none other than Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy appeared. Lucius shook his head and sighed helping Severus lay on the couch. "When will you accept your fate severus?" Severus just glared weakly at him. "How does Fuck off sound?" Lucius tutted. "Honestly this vulgar muggle language is beyond me. What does the word 'fuck' even mean?" Severus just gave him the middle finger. A gesture Lucius didn't understand , however he thought it was childish. "For a grown man raising a son , with the reputation of the scariest teacher in hogwarts , you sure are childish." He chuckled , Narcissa made Severus some Herbal tea. "This will help relieve the headache a little but it won't get rid of it completely." Severus looked away as he thanked her. She patted his head like a mother would. Back in school Lucius and Cissa would always look after Severus. When James beat him up , they would tend to his wounds. When he was sick , it was either them or Lilly who'd take care of him. When he had a panic attack it was them who helped him through it. Severus wasn't the most affectionate , but he wasn't afraid to admit that Lucius and Narcissa were two of his closest friends besides Lilly. He quietly sipped the herbal tea , glad that the headache eased off a bit to a dull ache that was bearable at least. "I'll send a patronus message to that old fool telling him you'll be slightly late to breakfast , so that you can eat least get a few minutes of rest." Lucius stayed as he cast the patronus. A peacock patronus appeared , ruffling up its feathers and standing with a regal air of elegance , awaiting its message. "Tell Dumbledore , that Severus will be slightly late to breakfast" Lucius instructed. The Peacock strutted off. Severus sighed and rolled over laying on his side. His raven hair now came to the middle of his back , and looked sleek and shiny. He looked about 20 years younger than he did in his glamour form. His ivory skin was blemish free. His nose was thinner and more feminine. His body was also more feminine. Narcissa covered him with a blanket
And he sighed slowly drifting off for a few minutes. He couldn't fight it any longer , his body was drained......

Sebastian pouted as he was made to get dressed and attend breakfast. He wanted to sleep. Draco was literally carrying Sebastian in order to get him out of bed. Sebastian has buried his face in Draco's neck , still pouting , as Draco carried him like a koala to the bathroom. Sebastian stood there glaring after being put down , his glare increased when Draco handed him his uniform. "Baby c'mon you need to go to breakfast. It's the one meal which is mandatory to attend. Unless your in the infirmary sick you have to go to breakfast." Draco tried to reason with Sebastian. "I'll just go to the infirmary then." Sebastian shrugged. "I know you don't feel well but you have to go to breakfast Seb..." Sebastian pouted again. "But whyyyy. Draco please don't make me go..." he looked up at Draco with tear filled eyes. He really couldn't handle being around all those people right now. Draco struggled not to crumble at that expression. It pulled at his heart strings but he had to look after Sebastian and that included making him eat. "Seb please...I don't want to make you but I don't have much of a choice." Sebastian glared. "Fine!" He snapped and slammed the door shut. Draco sighed. Great now Sebastian was mad at him... Sebastian changed and did his morning routine. Once he was done his anger had disappeared and he started to cry. He felt guilty for being mean to Draco. He knew Draco meant well , but mentally he didn't feel very good and he really didn't want to be in that situation. He was meant to be getting better but he was getting worse. He slid down the wall and started sobbing and shaking. I hurt Draco...I was mean to Draco...he probably hates me now... Draco started to panic when he heard sobbing coming from the bathroom. "Seb? What's wrong?" No answer. Just more sobbing. "Alohamora!" Draco quickly unlocked the door and ran into the bathroom. Sebastian was having a melt down at this point. Draco was extremely worried about how bad Sebastian's mental health really was. He wrapped him in a tight hug and instantly felt Sebastian trembling. "Shhh baby calm down...what's got you all worked up." "I h-hurt you a-again...I'm sowwyyyy" Draco sighed picking him up and carrying him to the bed where he sat down , Sebastian in his lap. "Look at me seb. You didn't hurt me okay? The injury was my fault not yours , and what just happened wasn't your fault either , your upset and stressed out and it's causing you to lash out but I know you didn't mean it okay?" Sebastian slowly nodded and calmed down a little. He really need to have a good heart to heart with his dad later though. He'd never been this bad before. Draco gave Sebastian a piggyback to the great hall. Weirdly no one was eating. Mostly because there was no food on the tables. The reason being? One teacher was missing , and meals don't start unless all staff are present unless stated otherwise. Sebastian frowned. Where was his dad? A peacock patronus flew into the great hall and delivered a message to Dumbledore before disappearing. The food suddenly appeared confusing everyone. Draco was frowning deeply. "My dads patronus is a peacock..." he mumbled. Sebastian laid his head on Draco's shoulder and picked up a piece of French toast and fed Draco it. "I'm sure your dads fine Dray~ c'mon you love French toast." Draco chuckled eating it. "You know me too well. I'm sure uncle Sev is okay too..." he kissed Sebastian on the head and managed to get him to eat some fancy looking fried eggs that had shredded roasted chestnut and blackberries with them. Weird combination but it worked. Of course Hogwarts was going all out with the meals to impress the foreign schools. After a few minutes Severus finally walked in , looking pale and exhausted. He sat down pinching the bridge of his nose as he sipped his tea. Sebastian was very worried about him. Draco rubbed Sebastian's hand as they got up and went to their first class. Divination of all things. Sebastian wasn't looking forward to it. The class room was stuffy and Profesor Trelawny used one too many scented candles. The heat combined with the overwhelming aroma made Sebastian feel dizzy and sick. He leaned his head weakly on Draco's shoulder. It was heavily affecting his asthma. "I can't b-breath...dray..." Draco's eyes widened and in a haste to get Sebastian somewhere safe he didn't even bother asking Professor Trelawny if they could leave he just picked Sebastian up and walked in. He took him to the courtyard so Sebastian could get some fresh air. Seb snuggled into him to Draco panting softly until his breathing evened out. "We really need to get you one of these muggle breathing things...Inhaler or whatever they decided to name it." Sebastian definitely agreed. Severus who had a free period right now , decided to go for a walk around the school grounds. Where he just so happened to run into two certain teenagers who should be in class. "What are you to doing here? You should be in class." Sebastian looked down guiltily and Draco instantly got protective. "Sebastian couldn't breathe! It's not his fault Trelawny's classroom affects his asthma. I had to bring him out here so he didn't pass out!" He practically growled as his eyes glowed and his fangs sharpened. Sebastian looked at Draco. "Dray...?" He whispered softly trying to calm down his boyfriend. Severus sighed face palming. "I never said I was angry , no need to be so upset. I was simply asking. Seb are you alright now?" He asked. Draco sulked while Sebastian answered. "I think so...but I really need to get an inhaler as soon as possible..." He subconsciously held his arms out to hug his dad. Severus automatically gave in and hugged him , petting his hair lightly. "I'll speak to poppy about getting you one. Do you care about doing divination? If not I'll see if I can ask for you and Draco to Join the Ravenclaws to do extra astrology." He spoke softly. Sebastian And Draco grinned happily. "That would definitely be preferable over Divination." Severus nodded and took Draco and Seb to the infirmary , mostly so they wouldn't be in trouble for being out of class. Poppy game Severus directions to the nearest place that sold inhalers and he flooed there while Draco and Seb took a nap. Severus ended up at a local apothecary in Hogsmeade. "Is poppy having a laugh? Why would a wizard if Apothecary sell muggle inventions like inhalers?" He mumbled to himself as he entered nonetheless. When he entered the apothecary there was no one there. He groaned in annoyance. "Hello? Anyone there...?" He called out his voice slow and tinted with slight annoyance. Suddenly a man appeared in a cloud of white-blue smoke. He had long Snow White hair , Icy blue eyes and pale skin. He was undeniably handsome , and many witches and even some wizards swooned over the young man. Probably the reason business was so good. Besides the fact that they had the most up to date state of the art medicine. However the young males most striking feature were the long pointed elf ears that replaced rounded humans ones.
