Chapter 7
"What's the matter?" asked Harry frowning at Draco.
Draco seemed incapable of speech, he was seemingly too much in shock that he had befriended Harry Potter 'the bastard who lived' as his father loved to call him so much. He was in so much trouble; his father was going to cane him again for sure.
Finally Dumbledore's speech penetrated their brains "Let the feast begin".
Food of every kind was spread across the table, not a bit of the table was bare. Draco gave him a look, obviously not wishing to talk about it now; he needed time to think about what he wanted to do. Did he disobey his father, and be friend someone who genuinely liked him? He was already anyway befriending Hermione. Could his godfather protect him? He needed information and couldn't get any at the moment.
Harry got the hint and quietly began eating his dinner, he was hungry he hadn't eaten every sweet he had gotten. He ate his fill, which was not a lot compared to the others. Harry still was getting used to getting a lot of food, plus he didn't want to end up like his cousin Dudley or the way he had used to be.
Everyone was told to go to their dorms, the first years told to go with their house prefect. However, Dumbledore surprised them all by keeping Harry back.
"Mr. Potter please remain behind."
Draco ventured beside his friend, before backing away going with the rest of the first years. He was still obviously very unsure of what to do.
"But I wont know the way to my common room" blinked Harry.
"Don't worry about that" said Dumbledore smiling a grandfatherly smile.
"Albus?" asked Severus frowning.
"Minerva, Severus and Harry my boy please come to my office" he said smiling joyfully.
Harry blinked he didn't like being on familiar terms with his headmaster, it didn't seem right. He had a feeling the man was going to try something, frowning he let it slide - for now.
The teachers began striding along, a lot faster then a first year who by the way couldn't help but take in the sights of Hogwarts.
"Enjoying Hogwarts Harry?" asked Dumbledore smiling joyfully.
"Yes Headmaster Dumbledore, its great sir," said Harry, stressing Headmaster and Sir as much as he could. Hoping the old man would realize he didn't like the familiar terms they were on. It didn't work the old man just smiled and eyes continued twinkling.
He blinked at the look the woman was giving him, was that disappointment he saw on her face? Why on earth would she be disappointed, he was getting rather confused? He was beginning to not like this, sighing softly he knew he would be finding out sooner or later.
"White Mice" said Dumbledore smiling joyfully leading the way up the stairs.
"Albus! You really need to change the password!" said McGonagall rolling her eyes.
"I will, perhaps to lemon drops" smiled Dumbledore going to sit behind his desk.
"Sit down my boy" said Dumbledore gesturing to a chair.
Harry stopped his anger showing in time, he didn't know this old man and he was sitting there calling him 'my boy'.
"Albus why are we here?" asked Severus angrily, he had a feeling but had to ask.
"Ah, yes Mr. Potter I'm afraid you are in danger in Slytherin house, many of the students wish you harm." said Dumbledore with regret and sadness lacing his voice.
"Why?" asked Harry frowning.
"As I have said some of the students mean you harm" said Dumbledore looking annoyed that the boy was not just accepting what he said.
"The spoiled brat wont care Albus" snarled Severus, oops old habits die hard. He couldn't help but think.
"Spoiled brat? Ha I suppose all spoiled brats grow up in cupboards and getting scraps of their relatives plates!" snapped Harry, realizing what he had said he shut his mouth and cursed himself.
Severus looked so shocked, he had no other come back. This of course was very unusual for someone like him. His mask was up within minutes, Harry realized he wasn't going to get any pity from him and felt relieved.
"Cupboard Mr. Potter?" asked Dumbledore "Surely you exaggerate!" he smiled joyfully fury ran in his blood. He was supposed to be down trodden and ashamed of the fact that he was abused! Not openly speaking out against them.
Before Harry could open his mouth and say anymore and get him into even more trouble.
"Mr. Potter there is a room prepared for you, Professor McGonagall will take you to the Red guest rooms" said Dumbledore.
"But!" protested Harry…going to say more but Dumbledore spoke again.
"Enough I'm sure you are very tired we shall speak more on it tomorrow morning once you are re-sorted" said Dumbledore getting up.
Harry had no choice but to nod his head in acceptance, but if they thought he was going to be resorted they had another thing coming. The hat had said he would do well in there and that's where his mum was supposed to be sorted. The hat said something about being unable to sort her properly because she had a heart of gold. Harry had smiled at that, his mum it was nice to hear people finally talking about her. He had been trying for years to find out more about her.
His father - he had never really been bothered about. His mum was who he had wanted to know more about.
He noticed that the black man had not said another word since he had blurted out those words. He noticed that the man was looking at him with pain? And open curiosity.
"Minerva take him to his rooms," said Dumbledore.
"Come Mr. Potter" said Minerva.
Once they were out of the room, Dumbledore turned to Severus and said…"You remember how you treat the boy?"
"Of course" sneered Severus.
"The boy got put in a cupboard when he was punished; he's been put there four times in the whole time he lived there. Nothing else they did worked, tried grounding him and everything. I do not like the fact he is spreading horrid rumours about his family." said Dumbledore looking angry and saddened.
"Of course Albus" said Severus, not believing a word, Lily's son was an open book, and he knew that the boy wasn't lying. He had not meant to say those words, but he also got an underline of Regret? He wondered why was what Albus saying true. He would feel like a right idiot if what Albus was saying was right. He had felt sorry for the boy, Lily's son he reminded himself.
"Good, then you best get prepared for your classes tomorrow" said Dumbledore.
"Of course, goodnight Albus" said Severus getting up and leaving.
Down in his quarters, he drank three big double tumblers of whiskey. He needed it; this was not how he had envisioned things going. He thought the boy would look like James and he could forget Lily and concentrate on hating the boy as James Potters' son.
Which was hard now that the boy- Harry didn't look like anything like James Potter. He looked too much like his Lily, his worry eased of greatly once the whiskey started taking affect. He sighed, Lily, his sweet little Lily why had she left him? His heart was still mending from her leaving.
As he got ready for bed, the only last thing he could think as his head hit the pillow was…
Tomorrow was going to be torture unlike any other.
He had Slytherin and Gryffindor first thing in the morning.
His godson and Harry Potter was in it.
God help him, he was going to need it.
Here we gooooo what do you think? will Severus be fair? will he end up resorted? will Draco still want to be friends with Harry ? once hes had his thoughts cleared? R&R and tell me what u want happening!! xxxD R&R once again lool byeeeeeee xD
