No owny Harry Potter or make money from it!

"Potter, get your arse off the floor. Professor Snape helped me find the book we were looking for. It's over there on the table." Draco told Harry, who stopped laughing and did as told. Draco handed Shyane to Severus, then motioned for Harry to follow him. "I swear, I leave for one second and you lose your damn mind. Straighten yourself up, you look like an unkept muggle."

Severus and Sirius watched with slight amusement as Draco made Harry sit down and study.

"They're like a cute married couple." Sirius stated out loud. Severus smirked.

"We know who wears the pants." Severus stated as he walked away.

"See you, Miser Blue!" Shyane shouted over Severus shoulders, earning a loud "shh..." from the libararian. She turned to look at the libarain. "Bwess you."

"..." Severus rolled his eyes, never noticing Sirius watching them with a slight smile.

"Professor, are you okay?" Nevelle asked Sirius, starling him. He blinked as he quickly got up. He almost forgot he was on the floor. He coughed to hide his embarrassment.

"I'm fine...I was just looking for something I dropped...uh...carry on now."


"And that's how to counter the curse." Draco finished explaining to Harry, who nodded his head.

"Okay, got it." Harry told Draco. "Draco...um..."

"What is it, Potter? I thought you said you had the answer." Draco said to Harry with a small frown. Harry shook his head.

"I do...I do have it. It's just...are you doing anything tomorrow..." Harry asked Draco with a slightly blush.

"What the dickens do you mean?" Draco asked Harry in confusion.

"You...will you like to eat lunch with me?" Harry asked. Draco was just about to answer when the new exchanged student, Maverick walked up to them. He grinned at Draco, who blushed slightly. Hey, he was hot! He has short black hair with honey dripped eyes that could cause anyone to melt. Harry frowned. "Do you need something?"

"Lunch, tomorrow. Me and you, Draco." He told Draco, who nodded his head. He flashed Draco another grin, who swooned, and left. Harry glared at him, then at Draco.

"You aren't going to eat lunch with him tomorrow?" Harry asked Draco, who nodded his head.

"OMG! I have to get ready." Draco said as he packed his things and got up.

"But its only 9:30." Harry protested.

"Exactly! I have only around 10 hours." With that Draco left. Harry frowned deeply. These past days, all Harry's been trying to do was be nice to Draco and spend time with him...but, it seemed like it was all in vain. This "Maverick" was a new transfer student; and the school's new residential "bad boy". He shook his head. It was time to take action. If Draco wanted a bad-boy to order him around, then he was gonna get one! And you better believe sure shit-ing well, it wasn't gonna be Maverick.


"Mummy?" Shyane said as she tugged on Severus sleeve sleepily.

"Hm?" Severus hummed as he shifted her. He was walking them towards their rooms.

"I wanna see my daddy when he come 'morrow." Shyane told Severus, who eyes widen.

"He's WHAT?" Severus exclaimed once they were in their rooms.

"He coming to apologize." Shyane told Severus, who frowned. "Can I, huh? Huh, Mummy?"

"We'll see..." Severus told her. She nodded and slowly drifted off to sleep. "I still don't trust him."

NEXT DAY

"Hermione! Ron!" Luna shouted as she ran up to them.

"What? What's wrong?" Hermione asked as she took in her flushed face.

"It's Harry! He's-He's-" She was cut off by a loud whistle of appreciation. Hermione was about to ask her what was wrong with Harry, but Ron shook her and pointed over Luna's shoulder.

"Look 'Mione." Ron told her; and when she did, she almost passed out. Harry was walking down the hall towards them wearing black boots, black leather pants, tight shirt, his robes were opened and his hands were stuck his pocket; and to top it off, his left ear and right eyebrow had earrings on them.

"Harry!" Hermione exclaimed as he stopped in front of them. He made Hermione blush slightly when he gave her a mishivous grin. "What in the world?"

"Mate, what happened?" Ron asked curiously.

"Change happened." Harry told Ron, then said. "Breakfast, now."

"Uh, sure." Ron agreed. Hermione nodded her head; and they both followed Harry who already left. Just before they made it to the hall to eat, they ran into Draco. Draco took in Harry's appearance with a slight frown. Harry told Hermione and Ron to go ahead without him.

"You sure, Mate?" Ron asked Harry who nodded. Hermione tugged on his arm and pulled him in after sending a look at Harry that said "you-better-know-what-you're-doing".

"Ha-Potter?" Draco questioned Harry, who smirked at him.

"That seems to be my name, Love. Is there something you want?" Harrry asked Draco, who blushed slightly and shook his head. "There's something I want."

"Ha-Harry?" Draco squeaked out when Harry leaned in dangerously close.

"Spend all day with me tomorrow when we go to hogsmede." Harry told Draco, who nodded his head in a slight daze. Harry grinned at him and walked into the main hall for lunch. Oh, yeah. I'm bad ass.

Draco followed in shortly still slightly dazed at Harry's new look. It was quickly shaken off when someone wrapped their arm around Draco from behind. Draco yelped and turned to curse whoever had the nerve, only to stop short.

"Maverick." Draco said as Maverick walked Draco to a couple of empty seats. They both sat down.

"So, tell me about yourself."


"Imbenails!" Shyane shouted to some Griffindors that were passing by. Severus grinned down at her as she kept skipping happily. "Miser Back!"

"Hello, Cherub." Sirius greeted Shyane and gently ruffled her hair, earning a giggle from Shyane. Severus rolled his eyes. He knew what was coming. "Hello, Severus. Where are you two headed?"

"Even though its none of your business, I'm heading to the head master's office." Severus told Sirius, whose smile faltered slightly.

"I'll walk with you. I'm heading that way also." Sirius told them. Shyane held her hands up to be picked up by Sirius, who did. They then began walking again. Sirius bounced a giggling Shyane into the air over and over. "And up goes the cherub with wings!"

"Up! Up!" Shyane chanted as Severus whispered Dumbledore's password. The door opened and they walked up the stairs.

"You wanted something Headma..." Severus trailed off when he saw that Dumbledore wasn't alone.

"Lucius.../MALFOY!" Severus whispered/Sirius exclaimed at the same time. Shyane just stared at him.

"Black." Lucius gave Sirius a bland greeting. He then looked at Severus with a slightly sorrowful expression. "Severus..."

"What is he doing here, Albus?" Severus asked Albus.

"He's here to ask for your permission to see if Shyane is truly his daughter." Albus told Severus, whose frown deepen.

"As if he'll agree-" Sirius started, but was cut off when Severus answered with a "Yes". "WHAT? You can't be serious?"

"I don't think that its not any of your business." Lucius told Sirius coldly. "If she is my daughter, she is entitled to some of the Malfoy fortune. I am also entitled to come and see her or she can come and see me."

"She is your daughter...you don't need to run a taste...you already know." Severus told Lucius. "I won't allow her to come see you at the manor. If you want to see her, you'll have to come visit her at pre-scheduled times."

"SEVERUS!" Sirius growled and shook his head. "The man's a known-"

"Please refrain from yelling near my daughter. You are frightening her." Severus to Sirius, who glanced at Shyane. She was staring at him in slight confusion and fear. He then said to Lucius. "Those are my terms."

"Fine." Lucius agreed, he then held his arms out. "May-may I hold her?"

Severus reluctantly handed a slightly sleepy Shyane to Lucius. Lucius gave her a little smile and received a big sleepy one in return. Shyane yawned cutely as she snuggled into Lucius's chest.

"You no bad..." Shyane whispered as she drifted off to sleep from Lucius gently rubbing her back. "My dada..."

"..." Lucius frowned when Severus moved to take her away. "Might I perhaps...tuck her in?"

"Follow me." Severus told Lucius as he turned towards the door. They both walked out of Dumbeldor's office. Sirius was the very image of a red hissing bull.

"Sirius?"

"HOW COULD HE COME HERE AND ACT LIKE EVERY-FUCKING-THING IS ALRIGHT? HE'S GONNA HURT HER AND SEVERUS! I KNOW IT! HOW DARE HE COME HERE! HE WASN'T THERE FOR HER NIGHTMARE THE OTHER DAY! HE WASN'T THERE TO PLAY GO FISH AND TIE REMUS UP! HE WASN'T THERE TO KISS HER BOO BOO BETTER OR FOR HER TO STUFF ALL HER HEALTHY FOOD INTO WHEN SEVERUS WASN'T LOOKING! AND NOW HE'S BACK! AND WHAT MADE IT WORSE IS..." Sirius flopped down in a chair. Albus gasped when Sirius lifted his head. His whole body looked tired and aged. "...what made it worse is that Severus...he's still in love with him. I never had a chance. No matter what..."

"Sirius, my dear boy. Do not say you do not have a chance!" Albus scolded Sirius, who looked at him in slight shock. "You have spent more time with that girl then Lucius has ever did. Him coming here is not going to change the way she feels about you. And Severus does not hate you, you just need to keep being persistent. Don't give up."

"It seems pretty hopeless."

"Only if you're the hopeless."
