mehehehehe, ok anyway new chapter. muah

Harry was deep in thought, so he never heard the door to the chambers open, or the low voices conversing.

Snape and Annie were talking in hushed tones as not to wake up anyone, they held each other's hand even though they were a bit mad at each other... no not mad, but frustrated; that the other had trouble listening to the very important concerns they each had over their eldest.

"Ok no what? Let's just drop this for tonight, ok?" Annie rolled her eyes, but nodded anyway.

Snape frowned, something was off.

His tattoo was tingling, ok not so odd, but he didn't remember mention of a meeting anytime soon, especially since the Dark Lord wanted to stay under the radar for a little while longer.

"What is it?" Annie looked at him concerned.

"Nothing, but I need to go." Annie glanced at the floor.

"Now?"

"Yes." He nodded just slightly.

"Ok." Her voice a bit more high than normal, and slightly cracked.

"Be careful." She gave him a small peck on the check and left the living room, leaving Snape standing in the middle of the room.

Big round eyes stared back into his.

A blank expression resided on her face, turning into one of curiosity.

"Hello." Yawning she patted her hair down.

"Hi." He didn't know what else to say, he didn't want to scare her or anything.

"I'm uh... I'm." Harry frowned, unsure wether she already knew who he was.

"You're Harry, daddy already told me." She spoke matter of factly.

"You're like Alex, but you're also Alex's Alex." She had trouble explaining the concept of an older brother, to her older brother, but Harry understood.

"Yeah." Jade pushed her blankets to the side; and sat indian style in the top corner of her bed, she patted in front of her.

"Sit here."

Harry smiled, getting up and sitting on the bed.

"I'm Jade!" She thrust her hand at him, he shook it mockingly formal.

"And I'm Harry, pleasure to meet you."

She smiled evilly at him.

"Plesurs all mine."
