Ok here's the next part I'll try to make it long just for you.

How do these things happen? Ch. 7

***Harry's POV****

New identities? What would be the point of that? Why would he even suggest such a thing? What will our mother say? I'm not sure I want people to think something happened to me. I can't even believe our father. To even suggest that we do that.

~Flashback~

"WHAT?" yelled Draco and me at the exact same time.

"You can't do this to us," I yelled in disbelief.

"Will you two at least listen to what we have planned before you disagree?" we nodded and he continued. "Alright, you will both receive new identities. Dumbledore has a friend in the ministry who owes him a few favors. Harry your name will be Zachary, and Draco yours will be Jonathon. No you don't have a choice on the names. You will both be resorted; no doubt you'll end up in the same house you are in right now anyways.

"You'll also be taking different electives. Don't worry Harry divination is a waste of time anyways no doubt. I've decided you will both be taking arithmancy. Hey it was either that or muggle studies. Also Harry we'll have to put a spell on your scar. You two will be staying with me down here during the weekends."

"Is that it? Where are they going to think we went? What are our friends going to think?" Draco was about as happy about this as I was.

"Well no that's not 'it'. I was about to explain it before I was so rudely interrupted. We will say that you two are on a trip to the states as an alternative learning program. There are actually people doing it so there won't be any suspicions. You two will also be said to have come here because I didn't like your old school, and I needed family here." We didn't know what to say now. He must have put a lot of thought into this whole 'being a family' thing.

~end flashback~

I'm still not sure how this whole thing will work out. I'm guessing we will though once my mother arrives though. There is still the matter to be said about my friends. They aren't going to have any idea that it's me. Hopefully they won't be prejudice and hate me. Knowing Ron though that is highly unlikely. He's going to hate me forever. For he would never accept me as thou art. For I t'was born a Snape and brother of a life Malfoy.

Oh crap I sound like a medieval weirdo. This castle is starting to get to my head.

~*~later that night~*~

***Draco's POV***

"Why do I have to be Jonathon? That's such an ugly name" I was not in a good mood. I like the name I go by now why do I get stuck with the ugly one.

"Draco you should be honored to have that name that was your Great Grandfathers name," said father. 'Oh yeah well the dude is dead so why can't the name die with him?' I'm sick of the name already and I haven't even started being called it yet.

"Why couldn't we pick our names?"

"Because whether you like it or not I AM your father and whatever I say goes." I'm not a happy camper and he's just making it worse. He doesn't care though he will get his way so I'll just go along.

"Yes, your right I'll just have to deal with it. Will I still be able to be called Draco when there are only family members around?"

"We'll have to see Draco but more then likely." This brightened my spirit a bit.

"Well then father I'll see you for dinner in a bit."

"Alright Draco but you do only have about an hour."

"Yes father, I know."

***Severus' POV***

I'm just glad Harry isn't complaining this much. I just don't understand him yet. I'm hoping we will be able to be more like a family. It seems as though Harry is waiting for something. I'm not sure what and I'm not sure when but something is going to be happening.

***A few day's later***

~~~Harry's POV~~~

Today is the day. The day my mother is coming. I'm not sure how were going to handle it. The only ones who know she is coming are her, Dumbledore, and me. I wonder what she looks like now. I wonder how she acts. I wonder if she still loved us all this time she's been gone. I wonder if she'll know who me and Draco are. I wonder about many more things which I can not speak nor write.

She is supposed to be arriving in a few hours. Dad is still going on about how mad he is that he has to share the quarters with the new DADA teacher. He'll be singing a different tune once she arrives, I promise that. This day is going to be more life changing then the day I found out I was a Snape those few short weeks ago.

Draco, I'm not sure how he will take it. I'm not sure why Dumbledore chose to tell me and leave them in the dark. I'm not sure but I think that Draco will like this but he's still mad about the Jonathon thing. Some things about people never change. I just can't stop thinking about her. All these questions run through my head unanswered.

***Angelique's POV***

This is it. The first time I've been to Hogwarts in 20 years. All I have to do is go talk to Dumbledore and then, then I'm not sure what will happen but I want to see my family. I have waited so long for this moment. Still I wait on for the moment when I can see my son's and husband. I'm having trouble keeping the grin off my face but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.

"Angelique, welcome back" I turn around to see Dumbledore standing next to the gargoyle that protects the doorway to his office." Please come to my office so we can discuss what will be happening."

I entered his office and he motioned for me to sit across from him. I sat down and we began to talk. "So when can I see my family?"

"Well Angelique I can tell what's on your mind." He said this with a large grin on his face. "You can see them as soon as we are done here."

***Severus' POV***

The new defense against the dark arts teacher is supposed to arrive today and I am not happy about it. I already am sharing my quarters as of now and on holidays and weekends with my son's so how are we suppose to have any privacy if I have a complete stranger watching my every move. My son's aren't going to be able to be themselves because of this person. I don't know what Dumbledore was thinking.

I go into the sitting room to see my sons playing a muggle game called monopoly. They look so happy but how are they going to act when the teacher arrives. I know absolutely nothing about this person. I hear a knocking on the door I turn around to see Dumbledore standing in the doorway. The new teacher must have arrived.

"Severus I would like to introduce you to your newest colleague." He steps aside to reveal, oh my gosh it can't be.

"Angelique?" She smiles and walks towards me. I embrace her for the first time in 15 years.

"It's good to see you again Severus." She looks over at the boys. They are staring at her Draco more in disbelief then Harry. "I'm sorry I don't know how to tell you two apart yet can you tell me which one is which?"

Harry stood up and smiled. "Well I'm Harry and the pain in the butt over there goes by the name of Draco." Angelique tried really hard to suppress the laugh she was holding in but failed miserably.

"Well Harry, Draco it's nice to finally meet you. I've missed you so much. It's surprising how much you look like your father." They didn't look to happy at the concept of looking like me.

"So do we call you mom?" Draco asked obviously he figured out who this person in front of us is.

"Only if you feel comfortable doing so." Draco just nodded and walked out of the room.

"I'll go," said Harry as he walked into Draco's room.

***Draco's POV***

I can't believe this. Too much has happened in a short amount of time. First the people I always believed to be my parents die and then I find out that Severus is my father and that Harry is my brother. Then I find out I have to go by the name of Jonathon. Then this woman comes here who turns out to be my birth mother. I go from belonging to one family to a completely different family in a month.

"Draco?" It's Harry and I'm pretty sure I already know what he wants. "Can I talk to you Draco?"

"What do you need to talk about Harry?"

"You know perfectly well what I want to talk to you about." I did know exactly what he wanted to talk about. He wanted to talk about our mother. "You know your going to have to talk to her. She wants to talk to us Draco. You know that you want to talk to her." Once again he was right. Why did he always have to be right?

"You're right Harry lets go out there."

"Well um, maybe we should let her and dad, have some time alone for a while." My face messed up all on its own accord.

"Ok, so were going to be hanging out in here for how long?"

"Either until they start wondering where we are or until dinner probably."

"OK, so what are we going to do?"

***Severus' POV***

"I can't believe you are actually here."

"Yeah, I know."

"Wow, I mean, it's nice to see you."

"Yeah you too."

This conversation really isn't getting anywhere. I wonder where Harry and Draco are. Well this is going to change the plan a bit.

"So did the headmaster tell you the plan with the boys?"

"Very vaguely but yes. He told me that they were going to be known as twins and that they were getting new names but that's it."

I really wasn't planning on explaining this. I thought it was going to be a complete stranger who was going to know them as Zachary and Jonathon.

"Well I think we are actually going to have to change the plan a little considering the fact that you are going to be here?"

"Oh? What is going to change about it?"

"Well I'm not sure yet. It pretty much all depends on you."

"Oh," she sounded a bit sad. She wasn't expecting all of this on her shoulders I can tell. "Severus?"

"Yes?" I look at her. She looks nervous. What does she have to be nervous about?

"Well u.um I u...h.m was just um wondering" she trailed off. I already knew what she wanted to tell me though.

"You don't want to be my wife anymore?" She looked horror struck.

"What? Severus where would you get such a crazy idea. I thought you wouldn't want to be my husband anymore after me being gone for 15 years and all."

"Angelique I would never want you NOT to be my wife. I love you, I have always loved you, and I WILL always love you. Nothing will change that. Nothing could."

"Severus, you have no idea how much that means to me."
