Chapter 3

Harry stood there staring at the door where the man had left. That is how Hermione found him. Harry was not sure how long he had stood there staring, but she managed to lead him over to the sofa where they sat down.

"Harry?" Hermione asked, it Harry could hear that she sounded really worried.

"Yeah," Harry rasped, his throat feeling really dry! How long had he stood there?

Hermione got up and got him a glass of water.

"Thanks," Harry said as he sat the glass down on the table.

"What happened? I tried to call your name several times, and you seemed like you could not even hear me," She said trying to look at him. Harry put his head in his hands.

"I don't know what happened Hermione," Harry shook his head.

"One minute we were fine, and then, I don't know," Harry said, Hermione removed his hands, lifted his head and looked him in the eyes.

"Tell me what happened, and maybe we can figure out what happened?" Hermione said. Harry nodded.

Harry sighed, "He got here, and I invited him in. We ate dinner, and he actually told me stuff about my mum. Then it got late and he went to leave, and I wanted to shake his hand and say thank you," Harry said making gestures with his hands.

"And?"

"And there was a spark, not just like a normal spark that can happen with muggels, but a real visual and physical spark. I opened my mouth to ask what the heck, and he said he should leave. And he did," Harry said.

"A spark?" Hermione asked.

"Yes like a tiny lightening between our hands," Harry said frustratingly getting to his feet and walking over to the kitchen.

"Okay a spark," Harry turned around and saw a thoughtful look on Hermione's face

"You know something?" Harry said taking two steps towards her.

"No, not really. I think it sounds familiar, but I am no sure, I need to look it up," She said her brows frowning. "Look Harry I can't tell you right now what it was. It sound like maybe he did, so either wait for me to come back, or go talk to him," Hermione said getting off the sofa.

Harry only nodded. "Most important, take a shower, get some sleep and we will figure this out!" Hermione said putting her hands on his shoulders.

"Yeah…" Harry said frowning, "Not sure if I will get any rest really."

Hermione looked at him with kind eyes, "Try, and tomorrow we will figure it out," She smiled.

The next morning Harry was in the shower when he heard Hermione's voice.

"Harry if you are here answer me!" she shouted.

"I'm in the shower," Harry yelled back.

The door opened and she walked in.

"Hey!" Harry squealed turning around.

"Honestly Harry this is so much more important than silly embarrassment!" Hermione said sitting down on the chair he had in the bathroom. "It is not as if I have not seen it before," She added.

"Still," Harry said getting out of the shower putting a towel around himself. "Wait, what?! When have you seen it before?!" Harry asked open mouthed.

"Honestly Harry, we lived together for months in a tiny tent in the woods, seriously," Hermione huffed. "Harry what I found is so much more important that that, focus!" Hermione got up and left the bathroom.

"It's that bad?" Harry grimaced walking after her.

"Well, yes and no," Hermione sat down by the kitchen table.

Harry followed her and sat down.

"Well I am not too sure of how to say this, but well," Hermione twisted her finger like she usually did when she was nervous. "Well, you are kind of bound to Snape," She said grimacing.

"What!" Harry said gaping.

"What do you mean bound, what.." Harry was speechless.

"Look, I found some references in some of my books. And that spark lead me to one thing, and it might make sense, but I can't be sure ofcourse, only Snape would be able to actually tell you if I am right,"

"Okay, just tell me what did you read?" Harry asked taking a deep breath.

"In the magical world there is a lot of different magical creatures. Purebloods sometimes breed with these to get certain looks for example, like the Malfoys. Only veelas have that kind of blond hair. That does not mean that they are actually veelas, that blood was thinned out generations ago. Look at it like dog breeding, you take two different breeds and try to get the best of both of them. " She said sitting down. "From what I read this kind of sparking is normal between elves. When an elf find their supposed soulmate, they spark. And that spark in itself starts the bounding. You honestly don't have much of a choice in the matter, the process has already started. But this all means that he, well or you have to have elf blood in your ancestry," Hermione said.

"I completely focused on this being him, but it could be you," Hermione said like a lightbulb just went off in her head.

"I would not know Hermione," Harry said.

"Well this means you have to talk to him, ask him. As I said if I am right then it is already done," She said looking him in the eyes.

Later that day Harry found himself at Hogwarts. He was actually standing outside on the grounds, staring at the lake. He was back. It had been a long time since he had been here. A long time!

And now he was back to talk to Severus Snape about the spark.

The bounding spark. That was Hermione's theory at least.

Harry had been standing there for a while, he still could not make himself walk into the castle. If he did then this would be even more real than just Hermione saying it. Then Snape himself would tell him, and then it would definitely be real. Hermione could talk all she wanted about choice. But he did have a choice right now about whether or not to actually talk to the man, whether or not he wanted to know the truth.

"The Headmistress would like to know if you are planning to come in or leave?" Harry heard a voice behind him.
Harry closed his eyes, it had to be him finding him here.

"I think you know why I am here," Harry said still looking at the lake.

Harry felt the man walk up beside him.

"I assume you have spoken with Ms. Granger," Severus said.

"Is she right, are we…" Harry left it hanging.

"It is the same conclusion I have come to, but I do not know how," Severus said.

"Well one of our ancestors obviously married an elf," Harry said.

"I would have thought Ms. Granger would have explained things further," Severus said.

"What?" Harry asked turning to look at the man.

"Elves don't breed with humans, they don't even talk to humans. They live in their forest somewhere, and humans live in the human world. So your deduction of someone of our ancestors breeding with an elf is not logical. It would not happen," Severus said matter of factly.

"Well, however this was made possible it does not change things now does it?" Harry said furrowing his brows.

"No it does not change anything, but I for one would still like to know how it is possible," The man said and left.

Harry turned to look after him, but the man continued to walk away.
