A/N: OMG You guys again amaze me. I'm really glad that you all like this whole 'harry being a baby thing' but it will be coming to an end and Harry restored to his normal age very soon. But here is the next chapter, hope Snape seems more his normal snarky self in this. Gotta love Snape's wrath. I almost pity Ron and Hermione for this, but I wrote it and wanted to do this so I will. I know that they would probably never be that irresponsible with a kid but they are teenagers and in a new relationship so you never know what could happen! But I'm sure you're all sick of my rambling so I'll get on with the chapter. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

Chapter 10- Reasons why you should never piss off Snape

Remus got down to the Potions Classroom just as the bell rang and knocked on the door as the students were leaving. Snape looked up and upon seeing his son he got angry very quickly.

"Lupin what are you doing with Harry?"

"I just thought you should know that I found him ialone/i in the middle of a deserted hallway crying and asking for his daddy." Remus responded while walking into the classroom and up to Snape.

At the werewolf's answer his anger doubled, but not at the werewolf. He took his son, who had been making frantic grabbing motions, and held him close.

"Thank you for bringing him here Lupin. I think I'll go and have a word with Weasley and Granger."

"Well you pretty much read my mind Severus, I was just about to go there myself. It's not like them to be this irresponsible." Lupin responded.

The two professors and Harry made their way up to Gryffindor Tower. Upon entering Severus and Remus were met with an interesting sight.

The room was a mess, clearly due to frantic searching and Hermione was looking around with tears pouring down her cheeks. Remus and Severus cleared their throats loudly and the two fifteen year olds heads snapped up and looked at their two professors.

Upon seeing the look of sheer and unhidden fury on their Potions Masters face the two prefects cowered. Remus decided to speak first

"Looking for something?"

Ron and Hermione said nothing just looked down at the floor with identical guilty looks on his face. Remus continued

"Now it's not like you two to be irresponsible like this. How could you be this irresponsible with your best friend and one of your professor's children when you offered to look after him?"

Ron and Hermione remained completely silent and Hermione's shoulders shook with the fresh wave of guilty tears that had overtaken her.

"You're lucky that I found him, and not somebody else, and what if something had happened?!"

Hermione was still crying and was unable to speak and Ron simply looked like a fish out of water with his mouth opening and closing without any sound coming out.

During this whole 'interrogation' Snape had stood silently holding Harry, who was happily playing with one of the buttons on Snape's robes, letting his anger fester. Finally Snape had had enough and said.

"All right Lupin, I think that's enough out of you. Now if you are done with them, I need to have a word with these two ialone/i. I do appreciate you finding and bringing him to me, but these two will be dealt with accordingly."

Remus stopped his mini-tirade and said

"Of course Severus, I will see you sometime later I suppose."

With that said Remus left the Gryffindor Common room and Snape turned his furious gaze on the two students who immediately cowered back in fear and Hermione's tears doubled. They had seen Snape angry before, but never this angry. This was different. This had to do with the professor's recently discovered son that happened to be turned into an infant.

Snape stood in silence just letting the teenagers get even more nervous and scared and finally opened his mouth while switching Harry to his other arm, momentarily to the boy's protest but soon was happy again when he found a button.

Severus smiled inwardly and then started to speak with a deathly low voice that had the power to inflict ten times the terror than if he was yelling.

"Do you realize what could've happened or were your thoughts and actions too centered around eachother to pay attention to the child that you offered to take care of?"

Ron and Hermione didn't dare speak because they knew that this was only the beginning, and they were also too terrified to open their mouths.

"Have you two ever taken care of a child? Because your actions today suggests that you never have. And you certainly won't be taking care of Harry again while he's in this state. Your actions prove that you two cannot be alone together in a room with a child because you're too self- absorbed!"

He paused for a moment and continued, yelling this time.

"You had a responsibility to take care of a child, your best friend in fact! Are you too stupid to comprehend what could've happened to him?! Now I know that he's told you about his recently acquired condition, and just because he's been made younger doesn't mean he still doesn't have it! It's worse now that he's younger and he can't tell you if something's wrong because he doesn't know himself! You have to pay attention! Something I know neither of you do while in my class hardly!

"You both will have a week's worth of night detention with Filch for this and 300 points from Gryffindor, and don't you dare say that it's unfair Mr. Weasley because you deserve it and you know it. You two are prefects and know better than this. Now clean this room up iwithout/i magic and report to Filch at 8 o'clock tonight in the entrance hall."

Having finished his speech/tirade/rant, Snape turned on his heel and summoned Harry's things and swept out of the room. As soon as he got out the portrait hole he ran into Remus who was keeping the students out of the common room.

Upon seeing Severus, Remus allowed all of the students to go in knowing that whatever transpired was finished and it was relatively safe to enter.

Snape looked at Remus and said

"Well, I'm off back to my rooms to get some work done before dinner. Again, I appreciate you bringing him right to me."

"You're welcome Severus, have a good evening."

The two parted ways and Severus went back to his rooms in the dungeons.

He entered the room and noticed that a playpen had been set up and a note attached from Poppy saying that she had forgotten about him needing one to put Harry in while the boy was awake but Severus needed to work and couldn't hold the boy.

Severus smiled thinking 'Poppy always thinks of everything.'

Walking over to the playpen he set Harry in it and pulled out a bunch of the boy's toys and sat them in there. Harry's lip started to tremble and his eyes tear up and he let out a bloodcurdling scream from being away from his father.

Severus groaned and then realized that Harry was probably exhausted, not having had a nap all day and in the scare that he'd had was feeling very scared and needed to be physically held.

Walking back over to the playpen he picked up the screaming and bawling child and held him close. Walking around the room and rubbing in small circles on Harry's back and whispering soothing words in Harry's ear. Harry soon quieted down and fell asleep from sheer exhaustion.

Seeing that Harry was asleep, Severus walked to his chambers and carefully set the sleeping infant in his crib and crept silently from the room.

Severus then got the papers that he was planning on grading from his office and brought them back to his rooms and entered his bedchambers (that was set up exactly like Harry's but done in silver and green color motif) and sat down at his desk and began to grade the papers.

About fifteen minutes before dinner was due to start Harry woke up and let out a little cry since he didn't see his father. Snape was two steps ahead of the boy though and had plucked him out of the crib and looked at the little boy, who's face had broken into a big grin and said,

"Glad you decided to wake up, it's time for dinner. You hungry?"

"Yeah!" Harry burst out and clapped his hands

Severus smiled again and the two left his bedchambers and rooms and made their way up to the Great Hall for Dinner.
