Hey everyone! I hope ya'll like this new chappy. I have a couple idea's for
a new ficcy. I hope everyone has had a good Valentine's Day. I did and I
didn't. On the 12th, my boyfriend both gave me a Chocolate Kisses Rose
(That the Spanish Club, which I'm a part of, was selling) and broke up with
me. O'course he's moving, so that might be why. We only have 4 day weeks at
my school and a ton of students weren't going to be at school the next day
so they handed out the roses on Wednesday.
Then I ran into this old friend of mine who got booted from my school (he told the superintendent to "f*** off* Not a very smart thing to do. Now he's getting his GED at a local junior college.). NEwho, I ran into him while I was on this field trip and he gave me a single red rose and box of chocolate today, so my day (and week) was pretty good.
NEwho, enough about me, lets talk about you! (Sorry, I just watched Aladdin) This is a Valentine Day present to all my happy happy reviewers. Hope you like it. Always me, BashfulC
"Kristina, Katrina, that isn't very nice." James Potter told his daughters. Next to him was Lily Potter, Roselyn Evans, and Harry Potter. Roselyn and Lily were both nodding their agreement, but Harry was biting his lip and very visibly stifling his laughter. Lily shot her son a look that screamed 'Stop it right now young man!' Harry tilted his head and with a neutral expression clouding his features, but his eyes were dancing with mirth.
"Draco, what are you doing outside your dorms?" James asked the young blonde boy that so vividly reminded him of Lucius, right down to the arrogant sneer that usually graced his pointy features. James raised an eyebrow when he noticed that Draco looked like he wanted to say something especially nasty to his assistant Professor, but decided against it.
Lily too was studying the boy whose father had so viciously taunted her during her school years. What her husband didn't see when he had asked his question was the flash of hurt when the words "your dorms" were mentioned. She studied him intently. He didn't have the same attitude he usually did; in fact he looked downright depressed. Lily had always prided in herself the fact she could read other people pretty easily, even when they had put on masks to cover their true feelings. Draco was upset and she had a pretty good idea why. One only had to look for the signs; the clandestine looks, the faint blushes that no one but her seamed to notice, the hurt look that flashed over his face when Kristina had made her comment. It all pointed to one thing; Draco had a crush on her daughter. /I just pray James doesn't find out!/ she giggled to herself. She saw the glances her family threw at her and just shrugged, grinning decidedly like the cat that ate the canary.
"I wanted to get out of the.depressed atmosphere, Professor." Draco drawled. He knew he wouldn't get in trouble for being out late. He was the Slytherin Prefect; as such, he had to perform nightly rounds after curfew. James frowned.
"Yes well, shouldn't you being doing your rounds, mister Malfoy?" And their went the professor turning his thoughts against him. Lily noticed the faint gulp and bit her lip. Draco was intimidated by James.
"I was checking down here sir, since I know of a few Slytherin's that come down her for privacy." Draco gave the professor a significant look and James nodded tersely.
"Very good. 5 points to Slytherin for your insight. However, you should go upstairs and do your rounds. I'm sure Miss Granger, Mister Boot, and Miss Bones would appreciate the help." James told him.
"I doubt it." Harry mumbled under his breath. Draco shot him a look of loathing mixed with a faint aura of.laughter? Harry's jaw dropped. Yup it was definitely their. His eyes were dancing with scarcely concealed mirth. Draco found his comment amusing. Harry shook his head.
"This keeps getting weirder and weirder." Harry muttered to his sisters who empathetically nodded their heads. Kristina tilted her head at her parents.
"Shouldn't we go to the meeting?" James eyes widened and he nodded.
"Yes we should. Draco please do as I ask and go upstairs, Harry, ladies, let's get going. I really don't want to give Severus something to gloat over." Draco smirked. The group of Gryffindor headed down the corridor, leaving behind a very amused Draco Malfoy.
~~*~~
Harry yawned. His family, Professors McGonagall, Dumbledore, Flitwick, and Sprout had been talking for nearly four hours about the war against the Dark Lord and Harry was really starting to get tired. Kristina and Katrina had already fallen asleep; they were curled up next to him on the couch, their heads resting on his shoulders. It took all his strength to resist the urge to tilt his head and rest it on Katrina's head. Finally, he succumbed to the urge and rested his head, his eyes immediately closing. Just as he did so, a faint knock was heard and Harry's eyes snapped open.
Snape walked over to the door and opened it to see Draco Malfoy standing just outside of it, pale and trembling. Severus stared at the boy for a few minutes before pulling the young Slytherin into his rooms. He sat the boy down and stared straight into his eyes. He was terrified.
"Mister Malfoy, why, pray tell, are you knocking on my door at 3 o'clock in the morning?" Draco searched the room frantically, looking like a deer caught in the headlights. Harry gently placed the two girls next to each other and stood up. Ignoring the looks he was getting, he made his way to the young Slytherin. Kneeling so that he was eye level with his arch rival, he searched his expression. Finally he shook his head knowingly. Glancing at Severus, he nodded thoughtfully.
"Something happened, didn't it?" He asked Draco. Draco gulped and nodded. Glancing at his potions Professor, Harry knew exactly what Draco wanted.
"Uncle Snape will you please leave for a few minutes, I don't think Draco wants you to hear what he has to say." He glanced pointedly at his left forearm and luckily, Snape got the point. He quickly escaped to his private bedroom. Once he was gone, Draco sighed in relief.
"Thank you, Po-Harry." He quickly corrected himself. Harry shrugged. Inwardly, he wondered what the hell he was doing. /This is Draco Malfoy, the guy who made your life a living hell for the last four years, remember? / Harry shook those thoughts away and concentrated on his sister's obvious admirer. /Ok, another bad mental image./ Harry mentally shivered.
"What is it Draco? Does it have to do with your father?" Lily spoke up. Draco looked shocked for a few minutes before finally nodding. She smiled encouragingly at him and he timidly smiled back. He turned to the Headmaster.
"Last summer I went to a revel with my father. It was horrible! I never knew how bad they really were. I decided that night that I wasn't going to follow in my father's footsteps. I'm not going to become a deatheater. After my meeting with the Potters tonight, I went directly to my dorm and wrote my father to tell him. I just got his reaction." He handed the letter to the older wizard. Dumbledore opened it and read it once and then twice before he handed it to James and sighed.
"It says that if you don't agree to worship the Dark Lord, you won't worship anyone. Am I correct in assuming that your father has decided to take you out of the picture permanently if you do not join the death eaters?" Draco gulped and nodded. Albus turned grim.
"We can not and will not let that happen!" Lily burst out. Everyone glanced at her in amusement. She blushed slightly.
"Darling you know we would never let anyone kill a child, or adult, if we could prevent it. We will think of something." Draco looked relieved.
"However, Draco we need to tell Severus about this." Draco's eyes went wide.
"We can't! Professor Snape is a trusted member of Voldemort's inner circle! He'll kill me if my father asks him to!" Harry couldn't help it, he burst out laughing. The others in the room soon followed suit, much to the bewilderment to Draco.
"What did I say?" Draco asked, perplexed and annoyed. Harry shook his head, he couldn't speak.
"Mister Malfoy, I can assure you that I am no longer part of Voldemort's inner circle. I am actually a spy for Dumbledore and have been since before you were born." Severus explained to the young Slytherin since no one else seemed able to. Draco's jaw dropped and then, after seeing why everyone was laughing, he started chuckling as well.
"So what are we gonna do? I can't go home, Lucius will kill me." Harry nodded, thoughtful. Everyone jumped when an unnoticed voice entered the picture.
"Auntie Jadzia and Uncle Snape can adopt him." Kristina said unthinkingly. James and Jadzia glanced at each other, thoughtfully. Kristina saw this and panicked.
"I was joking! I was joking! Please don't make him my cousin!" She begged before realizing what she was doing. Quickly she pulled herself together.
"I-I mean, I don't want that jerk as my cousin! He'll have to come to the house and then I'd see him all the time and we'd be related!" She told her parents exasperated. Lily shared a secret smile with Jadzia. /oh yeah, they have it bad for each other!/ Severus seemed to see the same thing because the corners of his lips twitched.
"I wouldn't be able to adopt him anyway. Not unless I wish to blow my cover with the Dark Lord." He explained. Katrina frowned.
"What about you, Uncle Sirius? No one would expect you to take him in. Plus he'd be safe with all of us Gryffindor's." Kristina glared at Katrina.
"Actually, Katrina is right. Draco would be safe with you Sirius. What do you say?" James turned towards his best friend. Sirius mouth opened a closed a few times making him look like a goldfish.
"Why me? Why not Remus. I never got along with Lucius and no offense Draco but I don't think I could handle being a father figure." Harry grinned wickedly.
"Two things, one, you were a father figure to me, so I know you'll be good at it. Two, it'll be a good way to get revenge on Lucius. For both of you." He added to Draco. Draco and Sirius just looked at him but the others knew exactly what he meant and started grinning. Harry was positive he heard his mother mutter "clever, get Sirius and Draco to get interested with the idea of revenge." Harry grinned.
"The two of you are a lot alike. You both like getting revenge." Harry ignored the snickers and looks he was getting and continued.
"But think about it. Lucius Malfoy completely detests you Sirius. What better revenge than to adopt Draco, his son? And you Draco, what better revenge on your father than to allow yourself to be taken in by your father's worst enemy? He'd go ballistic! " Draco and Sirius glanced at each other and then both started to grin most wickedly. Headmaster Dumbledore smiled at the two.
"I will discuss that Draco be given into my custody. Do not worry; I will use my power of persuasion." Snape snorted.
"In other words, you'll either trick him into agreeing to your demands or you will blackmail him." He mentioned dryly. The Headmaster looked surprised at his suggestion.
"Of course not Severus! Whatever gave you those ideas?" Snape rolled his eyes.
"Maybe all the times you tricked me into doing things I didn't want to do or the times you blackmailed me gave the idea to me." Snape retorted dryly. Harry snickered. James and Lily smiled at each other.
"I'm surprised you don't do that too, Harry. It was a trait of your father, your aunt, and great great grandfather. Your sisters have perfected the art of persuasion as well." Lily told her son. Harry blinked.
"My grandfather is alive? I didn't know that!" James and Jadzia shared a glance. Albus stood up.
"Severus, may Lily, James, Jadzia, the girls, Harry, and myself use your bedroom to have a private discussion?" Albus asked the options master. Snape nodded.
"Very well. Come along." The group of seven walked into the green and silver bedroom. Harry, Kristina, and Katrina sat on the bed, while their parents, aunt, and Headmaster sat in some chairs. The adults looked at the three kids who were looking at them expectantly.
"Harry, you know about your grandfather, but do you know who your great grandmother was?" Albus asked. Harry shook his head. Albus eye's twinkled.
"Your great grandmother's name was Neveah Marie Dumbledore Potter." At Harry's stunned look he nodded.
"Neveah was my daughter. Harry, girls, I am your great great grandfather." Harry nodded slowly.
"Oh." He muttered before his eyes rolled into the back of his head and he promptly fainted.
Author Notes: Okay, I have some good news and some bad news and a question as well. The bad news first: I, unfortunately, have been grounded from the grounded from the computer for a month. Don't ask me why, I just am. Instead of being grounded from going outside or watching TV (since I really don't do either one), my parents ground me from my two obsessions: Music and the internet. It sucks!
Ok, the good news is that I will probably only be grounded for a week or two, my dad has the GREAT habit of cutting my and my sister's punishments short. So see in a few weeks.
Lastly, have any of you read the series T*Witches? Cause I just discovered it. If you have, and you'd be willing to listen to my crossover idea, hit me back. Kay? Kay! I'll talk to you laterz! Always me, BashfulC
Then I ran into this old friend of mine who got booted from my school (he told the superintendent to "f*** off* Not a very smart thing to do. Now he's getting his GED at a local junior college.).
