Selena Snape couldn't sleep. When her father, Severus, got up, she did too. Tomorrow would be her first day at Hogwarts.

"What brings you up this early? It's 4:30!" Severus said. "Don't tell me-excited to see your dad work his magic in the coolest class ever?"

Selena chuckled. Her dad had a sense of humor, however well he hid it. "Partly. Are you sure we have everything?" At this her father gave her his customary glare. She sighed. While she went back to bed, he continued to get ready.

She awoke two hours later to her dad in his favorite suit with one small difference. He was holding a bouquet of lilies. "Is this another attempt on Lily Evans, or is that potions supplies?" Selena asked with a little sarcasm as lilies are never used in potions.

"With me as your father, I would hope you know the answer to that. Also, you overslept and your hair looks terrible, " Severus said, blushing.

"Although with my hair DNA, you're hopeless Leeny," he said, ruffling her hair.

"Ha ha ha" Selena said sarcastically. Her long black hair went to her waist and was indeed all over the place. She had her mom, Bellatrix Black-Snape's eyes and arrogant face, along with her curly hair. However, Selena was glad it wasn't overly curly like her mom's or greasy like her dad's. Her parents had divorced, and Severus kept trying to propose to Lily, his childhood crush and best friend. Unfortunately, she only viewed him as just that-a friend.

"All aboard the SS Sarcasm!" Anaya Dumbledore said brightly, as she burst in from upstairs. She was Selena's best friend and her dad was Headmaster of Hogwarts. She was also an extreme romantic and kept predicting the likelihood that Severus and Lily would end up together. She was at the Snapes' for the night.

"Yeah like you're all innocent," Selena said, keeping the sarcastic tone, while Severus just rolled his eyes. He knew the Snape family was viewed as snarky, but it was the Dumbledores who were, in his opinion, 'meddlesome fools'. Way too cheery.

"Off to the Hogwarts Express we go!" Anaya shouted as Severus Side-Along-Apparated the both of them.
