A/N: Hey THERE!!!!! It's been awhile since I updated. Sorry about that I was busy with finals. But now that that's over I'll have time to bring you more of the story. Talk to you later!

Chapter 4: A New Day Starts With Dawn

Severus and April walked through the Ball State campus. "I'm glad that's over," Snape said,"I hate dealing with parents."
"But mine were cool with it," April said.
"Doesn't matter. I don't like dealing with parents," Snape said as they came to the girls dorm doors.
"Alright Snapey, magic the locks."
"What?"
"Well, it's either magic the locks or stand out here, lookin' like freaks, waitin' for someone to let us in."
"I see your point."
Snape tapped the lock and the doors swung open. April jumped into the hallway, rolled across the floor, and leaped into her Charlie's Angels stance.
"Was that really necessary?" Snape asked, not sure whether to be amused, annoyed, or embarrassed.
April smiled and said,"Yeah! It was pretty fun. You should try it."
"No thank you," he replied coldy as they stood before her sister's door and read the message board,
"At the shop. Be back soon. Bye!!
Dawn ^_^"
"Great, now we have to go walking around this whole, bloody campus," Snape growled before his wrist was seized.
"I KNOW WHERE THE SHOP IS!" April laughed loudly, as she took off running with a sullen Professor in tow.
"LET GO OF ME, YOU IRRITATING FUNGUS!" Snape yelled as they careened through the halls of a building.
"OK," April said while coming to an abrupt stop and swinging Severus into the wall.
"Sorry!" she giggled and opened the door to the shop.
'I really hate that child,' Snape thought as he realized how much brick could hurt when it was embedded in his flesh.
April tiptoed into the shop and saw a redhead using a power drill. She waited until the drill was out of her hands before screaming,"HEEEEY WHEEZY!!!"
"WINKY!!!!!" the redhead screeched in reply before giving her a hug.
"How come you're here? Where's Mom and Pop? How did you get here?" Dawn asked.
"Well Dawn...I'm going to a new school and I came here through the courtesy of -"
"Me," Snape said as he came in through the door.
"Dawn, I would like you to meet Snapey in the flesh," April said after she saw how Dawn and Snape gazed at each other. Snape stepped forward and took Dawn's hand,"A pleasure to meet you. Is that, perhaps, jasmine and roses."
"Why, yes it is," Dawn replied, breathlessly.
'OK. This is beginning to suck. Too mushy," thought April.
"Alright, enough schmoozing. Is she in, Snapey?"
"Yes, she belongs at the school."
"Cha-Ching!"
And Miss April."
"Yeah?"
"Don't call me Snapey," he said coldly.
The trio went and packed up Dawn's things with the girls devising ways to get their walkmans to work in the castle. They walked to a secluded area and, as they Apparated back to Hogsmeade, Snape thought,'Now I have TWO to deal with. At least the older one is cute.'

A/N: Sorry this one is kinda short. The next chapter will be longer I promise. I'll be back later! Bye!!!!!!
