Chapter 4
Severus had another room added to his chambers that he personally decorated himself, he put up glowing stars on the ceiling and painted the room a light blue with some magical animals that the child had shown an interest in, mainly baby dragons and hippogriffs flying around playing together. He purchased a cotbed as he was still to small for a regular bed yet, a changing table he had in the corner for when Harry needed a new nappy, he had thought that the child should be able to use a potty by now but with everything the little mite has been through he would wait until Harry felt a little more comfortable with things, he had also purchased a whole new wardrobe for him as well as lots of children's books and plenty of toys for him to play with.
Harry had been feeling a little better, he was staying awake more and even talking a little bit, he had been given a yellow stuffed baby dragon to play with that he never let go for anyone. Harry wasn't sure where he would go after he left the dragon room but he knew he definitely didn't want to go to his poor excuse of a home he had.
Severus came to collect Harry that evening. He asked quietly
"Are you ready to come home with me little buddy?"
Harry stared but also smiled and nodded slowly, Severus smiled back and carried him down to his chambers, Harry still wasn't quite well yet and needed a bit more care before he could go running around.
Harry wanted to sleep but also felt wide awake as he awaited to see what awaited him where they were going, they walked down several staircases and the last one led down into a dark and cold area, Harry started to feel scared, he didn't like the dark. They then approached a portrait similar to the ones they had passed before and stopped.
Severus muttered the password and the portrait opened slowly, they stepped inside.
