Two days after Christmas it was time for Severus to get his next shot, Severus was not looking forward to it
" I don't want a shot, please Harry don't make me get it" Severus said crying
" Severus you need to get a shot so you can be three, come on you got it done a couple times already" Harry said finishing dressing him, " And after this shot, we can take down your crib and you can sleep in a big boy bed"
" I don't care about a big boy bed, I don't want a shot" Severus cried
Harry sighed and picked Severus up and rubbed his back while Severus cried
" Shh, you're ok, shh" Harry cooed trying to calm down the distraught toddler
Severus finally calmed down after five minutes but he was still shedding tears
" Don't want a shot" Severus whispered
" I know you don't Sev, it'll only last a second though" Harry said
" Don't care, don't want one" Severus whined quietly
Harry felt real bad for his boy
" Tell you what Sev... after your shot, how about we get some ice cream? Will that make it better?" Harry asked
Severus smiled slightly, " Can I bring Hissy to Poppy's?"
" Sure you can" Harry said and he accioed Hissy
Even though Sev got another snake for Christmas, Hissy was still his favorite
" Are you ready then?" Harry asked
Severus whimpered but nodded
" You'll be ok, you got Hissy and you'll be sitting on my lap the whole time" Harry said to reassure his boy
Severus smiled and hugged Harry
The two headed up to the Hospital wing for Severus's shot
" Hello Harry, Severus, how are you two doing this morning?" Pomfrey asked
" Don't want shot" Severus said
" Oh... you're still scared about getting a shot?" Pomfrey asked
Severus nodded
Pomfrey looked sorry, " How about if I give you a lollipop after your shot? Will that make it all better?"
Severus smiled and nodded then frowned, " Harry we can still have ice cream right?"
Harry sighed but nodded. Too much sugar could be a bad thing but with the look on Sev's face he had to give in
" Well you know the drill, go sit on the bed and roll up Severus's sleeve" Pomfrey said
Harry did as he was told, he sat on the bed with Severus in his lap and rolled up Severus's left sleeve
Severus was still whimpering but he hugged Hissy tight
Harry began rubbing circles on Severus's back to calm him down and it seemed to do the trick
" Severus when she comes back, just look at me ok" Harry said
Severus nodded and looked at Harry before Pomfrey came back with the needle
Pomfrey got Severus's arm ready for the shot by rubbing alcohol on it
" Ok I'm going to count to three... one... two... three" Pomfrey said and she stuck the needle in Severus's arm
Severus whimpered and squeezed Hissy tight and closed his eyes
Pomfrey took the needle out, " All done" and put a black band aid on Sev's arm, " You were such a big boy Severus, what kind of sucker do you want? banana, raspberry, lemon, lime, grape, or cherry"
" Lime" Severus said
Pomfrey nodded and accioed a green sucker and gave it to Severus after opening it
" What do you say?" Harry asked
" Thank you" Severus said happily and he popped the sucker in his mouth
" You're welcome Severus, now I'll see you two in another two months... so in February" Pomfrey said
Harry nodded and picked the now happy boy up and set him down so he could walk and they headed out of the Hospital Wing to go back to their rooms and take down that crib to put up the big boy bed
When they got back to their rooms, something was odd about them, there was an extra door
" Ok... that's odd" Harry said and he took out his wand just in case and picked up Severus who was right next to him
Harry cautiously walked towards the door and and accioed a blanket from the couch and he opened the door with the blanket in his hand so he wouldn't get cursed or anything, inside the room looked like another bedroom with a big boy bed already there and a note from Dumbledore
" Harry, I thought it would be a good idea for Severus to have his own room since he is now three, so I took the liberty upon myself to give him his own room, I already took down the baby things and his clothes are enlarged to fit him. Sorry if the new door surprised you, I should have notified you sooner but I'm an old man and old men tend to forget things from time to time. I hope I didn't startle you too much my boy. Good luck raising a three year old... you'll need it" The note said
" Yey I get my own room" Severus said with a smile, " And a big boy bed, this day is great... well except for the shot"
Harry smiled, " Well since we don't have to take the crib down since it was already done, what do you want to do?"
Severus smirked and he had a mischievous look in his eye and he ran to his bed and started jumping on it
Harry rolled his eyes and thought, " Figures, all little kids like to do this, I guess I'll allow it just this once"
Harry leaned against the wall and watched his little boy jump on his new big boy bed for the first time
