Chapter One; Back to School

Severus Snape couldn't believe it, he was finally going back to Hogwarts to teach and his youngest son and daughter were seven years old. Teddy and Heather had their seventh birthday early so everyone could celebrate it with them. Teddy had even lost his third tooth while Heather had lost her first. Everyone else was packing and getting ready for the ride back to King's Cross station.

"So Eve, do you think that you're going to try out for Qudditch this year?" Hermione asked her but Ron quickly elbowed her in the stomach.

"Shh! You shouldn't talk about Qudditch in front of Tobey." He whispered.

"Oh that's alright, I would love it if she tried out. I think she'd be pretty good at it considering you think she's as good on a broomstick as Harry and Ginny are." Tobey said being able to have overheard them anyway.

"Please don't go Daddy." Heather began as her father suddenly squatted down to her level. "I'm going to miss you so much." She told him.

"Oh pumpkin, I'm going to miss you too. But you'll still have Harry and Teddy here with you and all of your other friends. Besides, imagine how many more friends that you'll meet in charm school." He told her before planting a kiss on her cheek and then quickly rising to his feet again while everyone continued packing their suitcases before whirling them outside to the car.

"Do you have Patrick?" Tobey wondered.

"I have Patrick, you've got Angel, and Eve's got Precious." Harry assured him popping open his trunk and loading their suitcases inside them.

"Gosh mate, it's not going to be the same without you around." Ron told him.

"I know, but we'll see each other next month for Halloween and then not too much longer after that, you'll be home for Christmas." Harry said.

"You'll take good care of Harmony for me while I'm gone won't you?" Eve asked him anxiously as he bent down in front of her and smiled warmly at her.

"Of course I will. And so will Ginny. Don't worry Eve, Harmony's in good hands." He told her wrapping his arms around her and hugging her tightly before kissing the top of her head.

"Thanks Harry, I'm really going to miss you." She told him.

"I know, and I'm going to miss you too. But it's like I just told Ron, I'll see you guys in a month for the annual Halloween activities at the castle, and I know you're going to have a great time there." He said before he let go of her.

"Yeah, if I don't get hammered with homework like I did last year." She said with a roll of her eyes before everyone started climbing inside the car.

…

"Well, it's just us three now." Harry began as he started driving down the highway after he had dropped everyone off at King's Cross. "First I'll drop you off at charm school and then I need to go to work." He told them.

"Can't we just come to work with you?" Heather asked him while he looked back at her through the rearview mirror.

"Nope sorry, you've got to go to school. Besides, Dad will kill me if you don't get your education." Harry told her as she just simply folded her arms and scowled before turning to look out the window.

"Man! I wish that we could just go to Hogwarts, everyone else gets to go." She muttered under her breath as Harry grinned.

"It won't be too much longer now, you only have a few more years to go." He told her. "Besides, once you get to charm school, I swear that you won't even want to leave. And it's not like you'll be there alone, you'll have Teddy there with you." He said as both twins looked at each other and exchanged smiles with one another.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Teddy's my best friend in the whole entire world." She said.

"And so is Heather." He told her as Harry smiled back at them before gently applying the brake and turning off the highway onto the exit.

…..

Harry took his little brother and sister by the hand and led them into the building. That's when suddenly he ran into a familiar face. "Harry? Harry Snape, is that really you?" she questioned him as Harry grinned at her recognizing the plump old witch at once.

"Yep, it's me." He began with a nod. "Hullo Ms. Snyder." He said as he bent down and wrapped his arms around her embracing her tightly.

"Oh my goodness, look how much you've grown!" she exclaimed with great astonishment and disbelief before they broke apart a few moments later. "And who is this charming young man and beautiful young lady?" she wondered as Teddy and Heather shyly hid behind Harry as he stood back up.

"This is my little brother Teddy and my little sister Heather. They're twins." He explained. "This is their first day at charm school and they're a little bit nervous about it." He told her.

"I see, well I think everyone gets nervous on their first day of school so you're not alone. I know I was. Do you guys know what class you're supposed to be in?" she wondered.

"Well actually, I believe that Heather is supposed to be with you." Harry told her.

"Really, well it sure will be a delight having her in my class. I haven't had a Snape in my class since your brother Tobey. C'mon Heather, I'll go introduce you to the rest of the boys and girls." She explained as she reached out her hand and offered it to her. The little girl just simply looked at her for a moment before she took it and started following her down the hallway.

"You mean that Heather and I won't be in the same class anymore?" Teddy questioned his older brother sadly glancing up in his direction before Harry took a deep breath and squatted down in front of him.

"I'm sorry Teddy, but I don't make the rules. I'm sure you'll still have a really great time here though." He said as the little boy looked as if he was on the verge of tears.

"If you say so." He said sadly before he took Harry by the hand and turned around and walked away.
