Chapter 11 Dinner with Harry Potter
Alexandra sipped her wine as Harry smiled at her, with a sigh she put her glass down.
"Is everything alright Alex?" He asked worried.
"I still love him Harry, you must know that don't you?" She replied.
"Yes but what i don't know...what i don't understand is why? After every thing he's done to you why? How could still love a man who slept with your best friend?" Harry asked both hurt an upset.
"The heart wants what the heart wants Harry."
"The heart wants? The heart wants! That is the stupid bloody thing you'd ever said Alex! Damn it you tell me now why Snape, why not me? Why can't you love me?" Harry yelled causing every head to turn to look at them.
"Perhaps we could take this conversation to some place a little more privet Harry." Alexandra said calmly.
"Fine." He replied eating.
The rest of the meal was eaten in silence but as soon as they left an Alexandra closed the door to her office Harry started
"It can't be his looks, you can't think he looks better then me." He said walking her floor as she sat down.
"As a matter of fact i do, but you of all people should know i do not judge a person on how they look." She pointed out.
"What?"
"Harry-"
"Just tell me Alex because i have been racking my brain trying to find an answer, to come up with some reason as to why you would love him an not me." He said coming to a stop in front of her.
Alexandra stared at him thinking for a while before she answered.
"Why did you fall in love with Ms. Weasley or Cho?"
"They were beautiful, i was attracted to them. That doesn't answer-"
"Why me Harry, why after all this time do you still feel for me what you do?"
Harry now stared at her.
"I..."
"You think of my father as your own don't you?"
"Yes but-"
"But you feel the need to protect an love me, but Harry can you look me in the eyes an tell me you truly love me?"
"I do love you." Harry sighted.
"Alright lets try this the muggle way. Close your eyes. " Said waiting as Harry did what she asked. "Now picture yourself forty years from now sitting in a boat on a lake, there sitting across from you is the love of your life. The one person in which you could not live with out with out her you are died a body with no soul. Harry what is that women' name, say it? Call for her."
"Ginny." He whispered opening his eyes.
"She still loves you Harry, maybe you should go visit her." She smiled at him.
"Alex i-"
"It's alright Harry, i still love you like a brother."
"So Snape makes you laugh dose he?"
"Uh?" She asked confused.
"Ginny, she makes me laugh an i enjoy talking to her an you know just hang out."
"Oh, well yes he makes me laugh an i enjoy listening to him talk."
"So then why if you love him so much are you sitting here with me?"
"Because Harry my heart can not trust-"
"Close your eyes."
"Harry-"
"Alex close your eyes."
"Fine."
"You're in a dark place, theres no light. You don't know were you are or where the walls are, all you do know is that in the distance you can hear Snape calling for you. He needs you, behind you there is light behind you can see everything an its safe there are no voices calling you. What are you going to do Alex go the safe route or-"
"I go into the dark, i go to help him."
"Alright keep your eyes closed. You're walking on an now you know where the walls are, there closing in on you an Snape is no longer calling for you now he is screaming for you is voice racked with pain-"
"Stop, Harry Stop!"
"No don't open your eyes yet. He's screaming in pain what are you doing Alex?"
"I'm running to him!"
"Alright you've made it to him , but he isn't screaming any more in fact he isn't even moving."
"Harry." Alex cried not opening her eyes.
"Severus Snape is dead Alexandra, Severus Snape lies dead surrounded by nothing but darkness with your face on his mind an your name on his lips. Now what will you do?"
"I...I lay down an die with him." she whispered threw her tears.
Harry went to her side. "Open your eyes Alex. Today Severus is alive but we all know life can be so short. Do you want to risk living with this feeling for ever is something was to happen to him.
"No." She said looking at him. "Thank you Harry."
"Thank you. I'll just go tell Snape you wish to see him Yes."
"Yes." She nodded before he left her.
"Snape." Harry said barging into his office.
"Oh please do come in Potter." Snape growled looking up from his work.
"Alexandra wishes to see you." He smiled leaving.
Severus didn't't like that smile one bit. He rose to his feet and headed to her chambers. He had a feeling he was right about Potter an now the brat who lived was going to steal his Alexandra. Damn if he'd let the boy live long after she told him she loved the boy. He didn't't bother to knock an just headed in he stopped how ever when he spotted her by the window tears clearly falling down her beautiful face. He was at her side in a split of a second, he didn't't have time to say anything as her arms wrapped around his neck she let a sigh escape her lips.
"I couldn't live if i didn't' have you by my side Severus, you must know that." She cried.
"Is that so?" He asked holding on to her.
"I forgive you Severus, i really do i don't care about what was. Just promise me as long as it is in your power you will not leave me alone to live a life of pain an sorrow."
"I will promise you if you can do the same Alex."
"I do i swear it."
"Alexandra why the change, why the tears?"
Alexandra told him what happened with Harry am what Harry had said to her. Severus looked out the window thinking as she spoke.
"You felt like you would die?" He asked.
"I know i would have Severus, my heart loves you so much that i would die the moment you did." She cried still seeing his lifeless body in her mind.
Severus pulled her to him, placing her hand on his chest his other hand lifted her head so they locked eyes.
"I'm very much alive my love. You feel my heart beat so please no more tears. The gods themselves could not tear me away from you. I am your slave Alexandra, bound to love you even after death. I would not have it any other way. Do you hear me?"
"Yes Severus. I too will love you long after the last breath has left my body, an in death i will find you an love you for all times. Nothing will keep me from your arms." She replied.
The moment the words left her mouth she jumped as there was a white flash of light. When she could see again she stared into the smiling face of Severus Snape. Her eyes went wide as he held up his hand there was a ring on his finger, looking at her own hand she found a matching ring on her own finger.
"I believe she just took a wedding vow." She stated.
"It seems we have, do you mine?" Severus asked taking her hand.
"No. " She smiled letting him pull her closer.
"I would like it very much if you'd wear my mothers ring." he told her.
"I'd be honored to, but Severus we have to actually have a wedding. Father an mother would kill us both if we don't have a proper wedding."
"Well then my little wife you need to get together with your girlfriends a plan a grand wedding, the biggest the wizarding world has ever seen." He smiled.
"Mmm i can do that tomorrow I'd much rather go to bed my dear husband." She purred.
"Ah of course the honeymoon." Severus laughed scooping her up an heading to her bed.
The Snape wedding was an to this very day five year later is the biggest wedding to date and every year on there anniversary the Daily prophet runs a whole article on there wedding, what there doing at that time. So what are they doing now?
Well Severus still teaches DADA an is still the Deputy Headmaster an Alexandra is still the Headmistress. And if you really do read the prophet you'd know that they are expecting there third child. Rumor has it it'll be twins. Severus is hoping for boys since he always has two beautiful girls name Elena an Annabelle Snape. Annabelle is the spiting image of her father (But with a smaller nose) but it's Elena that takes after him.
Well that my friends is what happens when people see the real you. You might just find your soul mate an live...
HAPPILY EVER AFTER
