I Miss… extended ending.
Summary: Harry visits his husband's grave months after his death to share some news with him.
Warnings: Character death, Mpreg.
AN: This is a bit of an extension from my fic "I Miss…" It takes place a few months after that one ends.
Our son is the only thing besides my memories of you that keeps me going. Yeah, that's right; you gave me a son. He is beautiful. He has your one-of-a-kind black eyes and from his cries, I'd wager that he'll have your voice when he starts to talk. I still can't get used to seeing my hair on a head that reflects my favorite features of you. I don't think that it can ever be explained, but there is the faintest imprint of a lightning bolt on the left side of his forehead. I know that my scar isn't genetic, it should have never been passed on, but I'm that that he carries it with him; it reminds me that he is a mix of us, that we created a life together.
I tried to come up with the perfect name for him, something that you might have named him yourself, if you were still here. I came up with Antonio; our son's name is Severus Antonio Potter-Snape. I thought about just going with Snape for his last name, I've already dropped my old one and adopted yours, but he is the Prince and Potter heir. When I am gone, he will be solely in charge of the Prince, Potter, Black, Gryffindor, and Slytherin vaults.
When they first offered it to me, my first instinct was to decline the vault of Slytherin that I'd gained by defeating his descendent. I'm kind of glad that I didn't listen to myself; Severus Antonio might have need of something from a secret source and, in the future, nobody would guess that he would have any tie to the infamous Founder.
I want to see him grow up, see his many firsts and what kind of person he'll be, reaching the age so that when I tell him about you he can understand at least a little instead of just hearing about some fantasy person that while interesting and special, does not make it possible for him to be picked up and swung around by his father, or learn Potions from one of the few Potions Masters left in the world at an age where a little boy can spend an entire afternoon in the lab with his father.
However, at the same time another day that passes while he gets older is another day that I have to go through without you. I know that I shouldn't because of Severus, but I can't wait until I get to see you and feel your arms around me again.
