He said "there are rules you must follow are we clear so far".

I said "yes sir, I expected nothing less, it makes sense that you would".

He nodded and said "yes there are several other things we must cover. First off I must ask whether or not you realize what you're getting into".

I chuckled and said "I'm very aware that I'll be subjected to taunts and name calling but I assure you that I am quite immune. Being a student of yours for seven years, plus being in the middle of a war really gets you ready for practically everything".

He nodded again and smirked then he said "alright rule one none of my things are to be touched unless you ask me. Rule two I will not tolerate any of your friends here if you wish to be with them then go else where. Are we clear".

I said "I can handle that I know you like your privacy and I wouldn't dare mess with that".

He said "alright, have you picked a date".

I said "no but it should be soon".

He said "why is that".

I said "I don't want the ministry to say anything about it".

He said "that makes sense, but why did you ask me".

I said "you were my best choice".

He said "your best choice huh, that's funny".

I said "how is that supposed to be funny, you could have said no but you didn't why".

He said "I don't know, I guess you were my best choice".

I stared at him as he said this then I turned to walk away.

He said "wait don't forget your things".

I grabbed my things and looked at the paper that had my family tree when I saw the people on it I sat down.

Snape said " what is it ".
