24. A secret worth keeping by halfblood [Reviews - 5] (4469 words)

First of all I’m really sorry this has taken me so long. I got a message a couple days back which kicked my ass into gear by asking if I’d given up on writing this fic. Well the answer to that is I definitely haven’t and I’m sorry for the wait.

Sorry it's been ages but I'm gonna have much more time to write very soon. I'll try to have the next chapter up within the next fortnight.

30. Limits by halfblood [Reviews - 1] (6199 words)

RECAP -because it's been a ridiculously long time and I'm sure everyone has forgotten what's happening:

Harry went to stay with Severus in the summer and moved into Slytherin when they came back to school. He managed to find a way to occlude and has recently become a Legilimens with the help of Connor (who is new to Hogwarts). Harry has been having a series of strange and disturbing dreams (which are possibly premonitions) some of which he desperately wants to come true but others he dreads.

31. Another way by halfblood [Reviews - 0] (6426 words)

Recap: "Harry?" Connor laid a hand on his shoulder. "Talk to me. What happened in your other dreams? Were they bad? What happened?"

Harry looked up at him, quite wild eyed. "Yeah, they were bad," he said a low voice. "Really fucking bad."

32. Utterly; completely; absolutely by halfblood [Reviews - 0] (8397 words)

Recap:
Harry's mouth fell open.
"You want me to go back there," he said feeling shell-shocked, "so that you can trap him?" It's my dream, he realised in horror. Another one, beginning to come true!

"I know it is asking a great deal."

"Can't you trick him? Put my wand there or something?"

Dumbledore shook his head solemnly. "It is the very essence of your magic that he will sense. There is no alternative, believe me if there were I would not ask you."

But my dreams don't have to come true, not if I don't let them. In any case, if I go back to the Dursleys I won't have to worry about Voldemort killing me, Uncle Vernon will beat him to it, Harry thought grimly. After all, Severus says there is always another way; I have to believe that.

33. Chapter 33: Betrayal by halfblood [Reviews - 15] (9467 words)

This chapter was finished thanks to 2 days off work due to the snow in London. C'mon snow, make it a 3rd day and maybe I'll start the next chapter!

RECAP:
Lying wide awake in the darkness Harry realised two things: he wanted proof that Severus was truly on the Order's side, and he was now determined to get it.

34. Atonement by halfblood [Reviews - 16] (10384 words)

Recap:

"What if there was a way to put things right?"

"He won't listen to me. He hates me. I can't change what I did," Harry slumped forward onto the desk once more.

"Severus-" Dumbledore cut himself off, seemingly unable to deny Harry's assessment of the situation.

He paused thoughtfully for a moment. "You said that you regretted making decisions so hastily, that you wished you hadn't been guided by fear. What if you could rectify that, and help the order by going back to your relatives for one last time?"

35. Father figure by halfblood [Reviews - 12] (13221 words)

Sorry it's taken so long! Fingers crossed a few of you haven't forgotten this story. I promise I will finish it (probably another 5 hefty chapters of 10k each or thereabouts) and I think the rest of the story will be plain sailing from hereon.

RECAP (150k in a nutshell!)

Harry stayed with Severus during the summer and gradually learnt occlumency and legilimency. He has been having a series of strange and disturbing premonitions, including violent dreams concerning Sirius, Dumbledore and himself. In a desperate bid to determine Severus' true loyalties, once and for all, Harry used Imperio to see into his mind. Devastated by what followed, Harry allowed Dumbledore to persuade him to return to the Dursleys as part of an elaborate trap. As Dudley had ruined any chance of his return to Hogwarts, Harry had to use Connor's portkey when Voldemort attacked.
