Chapter Seven

A/N Since my net is down I decided that I would post a couple chaps together, so lucky you!!!

Snape was in his rooms fretting about how he was going to tell Harry. What should he say? He couldn't just go up to Harry and say, 'Hey Harry, well I just thought you would like to know you my son. Okay have a nice day.' That wouldn't work. How did he even get into this mess? Oh yes I remember.

*~*~*~*~*~Flashback*~*~*~*~*

It was a fairly hot night and you could just begin to see the stars shining in the sky. Severus was on a mission for Lord Voldemort and was in a dreadful mood. "Fill 'er up." He said to the bar tender. Severus downed three more glasses of whisky and was starting on another. Drunk as hell he headed out to do his dastardly deed. Severus was never sober when he was sent alone to do something for Voldemort. He always had a soft spot in his heart and could never do his job unless drunk.

Stumbling along the street Severus found the place. A well built manor, but only two stories high from the look of the outside. He stepped inside and paused. He couldn't go through with it. Not now, not ever again. He was sick of it the killing, the torture it was too much for him. Severus left the manor and went back to the pub. 'Who could he got to? Who wouldn't send him straight to Azkaban? Who would hear him out?'

A familiar voice behind him broke his train of thought, "Severus, Severus Snape? Is it really you?"

"No lass, it's not me I am just figure of your imagination." He said curtly.

"Ah, silly of me to bother. You haven't changed much since Hogwarts."

Severus turned around and met a pair of emerald green eyes staring back at him, "Lily? What are you doing here?"

"The question is Severus, what are you doing here? I on the other had live here, for the time being."

"Vacation, I'm here on vacation." Severus' voice was slightly less cruel now, but still cold. "I didn't know you lived here. So where is James and his gang? Shouldn't they be here to protect their best girl?"

"Actually I am here alone, James is in London working for the Ministry."

"I see," he said eyeing her. "Well are you going to just stand there, or are you going to sit?"

Lily sat down staring straight back into his beetle black eyes. Her hair was pulled up in a ponytail and she was wearing a spaghetti-strap dress. Her dress went to her mid calf, with her milky white skin glowing in the dimly lit room. "Are you going to buy me a drink?"

Snape was taken aback, "Do you have any muggle money?"

"Yes."

"Then buy your own drink." He said with an icy cold voice.

"You know Severus, I thought that after these years you would have developed some manners."

"It seems my dear Lily that you have misjudged me completely. I think I am exactly the same as I was, if not worse."

"I am truly sorry to hear that Severus. I found you quite enjoyable at Hogwarts. You never seemed as mean as the boys made you out to be, you were just a bit tense." Lily said with a smile. "I never needed to hate or dislike you, for you were never mean to me."

Severus and Lily talked for almost an hour. They had some wine and took a walk around the courtyard. It was about one o'clock in the morning when they got to Severus's hotel room. Laughing for about the first time in many months. Both of them were pretty drunk, but aware of the surroundings. They sat down on the bed, the crunch of the sheets under of them, and they just sat silently looking into each other's eyes.

That's when everything went down hill. He couldn't exactly remember who made the first move, but it happened. Not only did they have sex that one night, but many times. They kept seeing each other when they were in Rome, and it even seemed like they might start a long-term relationship. That idea went out the window quickly when Severus was summoned to Voldemort side, and he didn't see Lily for two months.

*~*~*~End Flashback, but start a new one only later~*~*~* A/N I'm crazy!

Severus was sitting in his study when he received a letter:



~Severus~ We haven't spoken or seen each other for almost two months now, but there is something I have to tell you. I married James on a couple of weeks ago on December 25th. I am very sorry that I didn't tell you sooner. The real matter at hand right now is I am pregnant, but not with James's baby with yours.

James doesn't know about it yet so please don't tell him. I know I shouldn't have kept this from you for so long Severus its just I didn't know how you would react. I still don't Severus you have a child weather you wish it or not it's true. I only hope the best for you Severus and deep in my heart I will always love you.

With love, ~Lily Evans Potter~

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*End Flashback*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Severus was sweating the nest morning when it was time for breakfast, Harry should be done with his homework by now and they were going to have to talk. He still didn't know what he was going to say to him. Nothing seemed to fit the occasion and everything he thought about seemed so juvenile. Harry wasn't going to like the news that he knew for a fact.

Finally reaching the dining room Severus sat down for breakfast. Which usually consisted of black coffee and toast, but today he told the house elves to make something special, 'be creative,' he told them.

Footsteps in the distance grew louder as Harry came down for breakfast. Still in his pajamas Severus noticed as Harry entered the room. Harry looked so much like himself at that age, but with green eyes and a scar. This was going to be tough.
