Chapter 1

It was dark and Severus Snape the potions master at Hogwarts woke to a loud banging on his door that led to his chambers.

"Tempus" he growled as he wandlessly cast the spell. Sev growled in frustration "who the bloody hell is banging on my door at three in the bloody morning?"

Since the end of the war Sev had found that he actually liked sleeping…..a lot. It seemed that his 48 year old body was trying to catch up on all the sleep it missed out on during his spying days.

Sev stumbled out of bed and pulled on his dressing gown. He stalked across the sitting room and slung his door open attempting to startle the rouge knocker, who had thankfully just saved their life by stopping the incessant knocking.

Sev was shocked to see who it was on the other side of the door. It was that dratted Potter spawn. Oh how he hated the Potters. Always getting on his nerves, always causing trouble for him, it was no wonder he hated them all.

Jazmin Potter was the daughter of Harry Potter, the world known famous wizard who had finally defeated Voldermort at the end of his seventh year at Hogwarts, and a witch that Potter refused to name or comment on except to say that she was dead and a victim of rouge deatheaters.

Harry Potter had left the wizarding community in Britain after his seventh year and went missing for ten years. No one heard from him or saw him during that time. Dumbledore didn't seem worried about his "golden boy's" disappearance though, and that Granger…..sorry Weasley girl always seemed a bit too smug when the topic of the missing Hero of the wizarding world came up.

Sev glared at Jaz and growled. "What do you want you little brat?"

"I have a note for you Professor Snape." Jaz said, bouncing slightly on the balls of her feet.

"Well give it to me and then go straight back to the Slytherin dorm. Also you have a detention with me for the next week for being out of bounds after curfew." Sev said knowing that the detention did nothing other than make him happier.

"I don't think you can give me a detention Professor Snape." Jaz said quickly. "You see Professor Snape I have a note signed by my father that gives me permission to be out."

Sev grabbed the offered note and read it quickly. Gods he hated Potter. He absolutely positively hated Potter with his all.

"Miss Potter, why do you have a note from your father saying and I quote: 'This allows Jaz to give someone, something, some time, somewhere, no matter who, what, when, where or why'?" Sev asked his voice rising with each word.

Jaz noticed that her head of house and potions professor was turning a pretty shade of blue because he wasn't breathing in as much as he was breathing out.

"Professor Snape, BREATHE!" she shouted. Once she saw him breathe in she shoved the other note in his hand and ran. Far and fast. Back to her bed where she was safe from asphyxiating professors.

Leaving Severus standing, leaning against his door frame, slightly blue in the face at three in the morning, clutching a note that would change his life for ever.
