A couple of months have passed and Severus was now four, nothing much went wrong while he was four except for the occasional burning of the arm because of Voldemort. Severus was done being grounded and he got to sleep in his own room again which he really liked. It was now April and Easter, they were having breakfast in Harry and Severus's rooms along with their three friends

" Hey Sev you want to go on an easter egg hunt?" Harry asked

" Oh that will be so much fun" Hermione said and clapped, " And we can have a picnic"

Severus smiled and nodded

" What's an Easter Egg hunt?" Draco and Ron asked

" You mean you guys never been on an Easter egg hunt?" Hermione gasped

" It must be a muggle thing" Draco said and he took a sip of his pumpkin juice

" So what's an Easter egg hunt?" Ron asked

" Its where the Easter Bunny hides Easter eggs with candy inside and little kids look for them" Hermione said

" Dudley searched for easter eggs all the time when he was younger" Harry said

" How can you put candy in eggs?" Ron asked, " Won't the candy get all yokey?"

" Not real eggs, plastic eggs" Hermione said, " You put candy in plastic eggs and the kids look for them"

" And kids think that's fun?" Draco asked

" Well wouldn't you have fun looking for eggs with candy inside?" Harry asked with a smirk

Draco grinned and nodded, " Ok well you got me there"

" So are we going to look for eggs or not?" Severus asked excited

" Calm down Sev, we will, but those three will hide them while we stay in here and then you can go look for them when they're done" Harry said

Severus grinned and nodded, " When can we go? When can we go?"

" During lunch time" Hermione said

" But it's only breakfast" Severus whined

" We still need to go to Hogsmeade and buy the candy" Harry said

Severus was jumping up and down at this point

" So what candy do you want Uncle Sev?" Draco asked

" Toffee and chocolate and Bertie Botts Beans and gum and..." Severus listed

" Sweet tooth" Hermione murmured and shook her head and rolled her eyes

After breakfast they got ready to go to Hogsmeade, they had to get their Heads of Houses permission

" Draco I give you permission now lets go" Severus said pulling Draco's arm

" I need Professor Slughorn's permission uncle Sev, you know that" Draco said

Severus groaned and waited impatiently

Once everybody got the ok they headed out of the castle and walked towards Hogsmeade with a very hyper four year old

" We should have flown on our brooms here" Severus said

" We can't do that, that's against the rules" Hermione said, " Plus, I don't fly"

" Forget the rules" Severus said

The students gasped

" What? I'm four remember?" Severus said, " And nobody this time will hurt me"

It was quiet, the awkward quiet

" Well... we're not going to break the rules... now lets just walk quickly to get the candy" Harry said

It was quiet all the way to Hogsmeade but once they got there they relaxed and enjoyed their morning. After they got the candy, they stopped for butterbeers and then they headed back towards the castle

" Ok, you two boys hide the eggs and I'll get food for the picnic, you two boys stay inside and Sev, no peaking" Hermione said

" Yes Mione" All the boys saluted

Hermione rolled her eyes

" And Break" The boys said and laughed

Harry and Severus went back to their rooms and worked on a 100 piece puzzle that Hermione brought over, it was a picture of an Easter bunny with a basket of eggs

The other two boys came back an hour later and helped work on the puzzle

Hermione came back a half hour later and explained that after she got the picnic ready she checked the hiding places for the eggs and made sure they were in easy enough places for Sev to find

" Can we go now, can we can we can we?" Severus asked excited

Hermione smiled and nodded, " First the picnic and then the Easter egg hunt, oh and boys, bring your brooms"

The boys smiled and brought their brooms along and Severus was excited all day, the food was all Easter themed, the sandwiches were in shapes of easter bunnies, the chocolate cake was in a shape of an egg, the apples Hermione made everybody eat were shaped into eggs, somehow Hermione transfigured orange carrots into little chicks

After lunch Harry had Severus look for the eggs, that took about two hours since there was a lot of eggs, Severus put the eggs in a basket Hermione got for him

Inside the eggs weren't just candy, inside some of the eggs were knuts and sickles as well

" Wow, money" Severus cheered

" I saw you eying that toy in the store in Hogsmeade" Draco said with a smirk

Severus got two galleons worth of knuts and sickles and a load of candy

After Severus went Easter egg hunting the boys went flying for the rest of the day

" So did you have a fun easter?" Harry asked while giving Severus a bath

Severus nodded, " Two Galleons worth of money and a lot of candy"

" So what toy do you want?" Harry asked

" A potion kit for five and up" Severus said

Harry nodded, " Ok, we'll get it tomorrow, you'll be five in a few days anyway, and then... eleven"

Severus smiled but it was kind of forced

" Then seventeen... then... will I be thirty six or thirty seven?" Severus asked

" Um... maybe thirty seven" Harry said

Severus nodded, " So just... six more months"

Harry nodded

They were silent for the rest of the bath

Harry tucked Severus in for the night

" I changed my mind, I don't want that toy, I want to save my money" Severus said

" Are you sure?" Harry asked

" I'll only be five for two months, then I'll be eleven and I can work with real potions, I can wait that long" Severus said

" Ok Sev" Harry said with a sad smile but Severus didn't see it because he closed his eyes and sighed

Harry walked out of the room and got out a book and started reading
