A/N: This is my frist fic and English is not my first language. So sorry for the mistakes.
Severus woke up with the tingling known in his dark mark. It was not burned like when the Dark Lord called it, it was smoother, but it caused equal pain. It was Lily's fingers on his mark, it was her saying that they should run away, fake their death and live happily ever after. Were they running away and never looking back... It was all he could dream instead being trapped on the reality of teaching potions to Harry-Blood-Potter
His thought were filled with the events of yesterday. Potter and the younger Weasleys came out of the Chamber of Secrets and not long after everyone who was petrified was alright again thanks to the Mandrake juice. He couldn't help but a part of him loathed Potter. He always made it difficult to keep him out of harms way. It was like he seemed to attract danger to him and his friends. Although that he was the only part of Lily on this world.
His daydream were interrupted by the sound of a knock. He swiftly moved over to the door. As he opened the door, Lucius Malfoy and his elf brushed past him into the shadow of his quaters. Snape turned sharply, a quizzical look in his face. "Lucius? I'm sorry, did I forgot you were coming?" He asked. Lucius did not waste his time on may people. Snape had no clue on what he was doing on his quarters
" I sorry for the last minute visit. But I figure out since I was already on the castle why I shouldn't see a friendly face?" He grinned pretentiously. "Is that a bad time?"
Severus offered him a goblet of wine "No, I just wonder what brings you to the castle?"
"I came to Hogwarts to talk to Dumbledore. Apparently the ministery let him get back." His teeth became gritted as he fought to control himself. "Narcissa is constantly worrying about Draco. The least I can do for her is make sure that he will be safe."
Severus groaned."Draco was never on danger."
"I know that you will always look after Draco, my friend." Malfoy give Dobby his goblet and waited util the elf couldn't hear his voice. "Do you remember when I asked you to be Draco's godfather?"
FLASHBACK
"Why do you want me to be Draco's godfather?" Severus asked "Don't get me wrong, Iam happy for both you and Narcisa. And I am pleased to meet your son. But you know I don't like children that much."
"Well neither do I" Lucius replied smoothly " but I figured we could bothe make an excepition or two..."
"Still, thought, why me?"
"Because I know that you will look after Draco if something ever happens to me" Malfoy answered "And I don't trust anyone else I Know to do that. So, will you be Draco's godfather?"
Snape looked at the older Mallfoy for a long moment, but he did not respond. He never understood why Lucius Malfoy had always been so nice to him. He paid for all his studies to become a master of potions. He helped when his mother died. And he rescected him at the worst moment of his life when Lily abandoned him to marry James Potter. All this without asking for anything in return. The least he could do was take this responsibility and do his best to protect that baby. "All right" Severus said "I'll do it. I'll be Draco's godfather."
"Thank you, Severus" Lucius genuinely smiled "Narcissa will be pleased. Do you like to hold him?"
"I never hold a baby before" Severus said.
Lucius just smirked as he put Draco on his friends arms. "See, you know how to hold a baby, it's like you had don that thousand times before." Draco looked at Severus with a curious expression.
Snape felt like he actually had done that thousand times before. Suddenly a melancholy longing that evores a feeling of loneliness took over him and all went black.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Do you remember the feeling you had the first time you hold Draco?" Lucius hand over a tall slender vial "That time I couldn't explain to you, but Draco wasn't the first baby you had hold. This memory has all the answers you might need."
Snape only stared at Lucuis, a look of shock and disbelief. "What is this? Why now?" He questioned
"Well I belive yesterday all the petrified students take the Mandrake juice?" Severus nodded. "Tomorrow you will have yourself a surprise. But again all the answers are on your hand."
"DOBBY! Let's go see Dumbledore!" Malfoy called his elf. "Thank you for the wine. But I must go."
Severus groaned as he watched his friend leave his quartes. He had known Lucius since his frist day at Hogwarts when the perfect came recrute the new Slytherin. He always used the Malfoy's name to guaranteed access to information from everybody. Usually he used this piece of information to blackmail. So why he give this memory to him? This was the way to blackmail him? What baby he could possible talking about? And more important why his students that were back to normal had to do with all this?
He was on his way to his potions class office to get his pensieve and end with the mistery when he met a Hermione Granger writhing in pain on the floor. He pick up the girl and run to Madam Pomfrey while he fought against the suddenly melancholy longing that evores a feeling of loneliness whom wanted took over him.
