Lily sat in her bedroom combing her hair in front of her vanity. She had just had breakfast that had been made by Tom, who had made an attempt to cook breakfast the muggle way but failed miserably so he used magic. It was a few days after the funeral and Lily had been to weak to get out of bed until today. She forced herself to get up, tired of doing nothing all day, she planned on going out side and walking in the garden even though everything was dead during the winter.
"Lily? Lily are you there?"
Lily dropped her brush in shock as she heard Cassandra's voice, it sounded muffled and distorted. Lily realized that it was coming from her trunk. She ran to the foot of her bed and opened her trunk. The mahogany box was at the very top, Lily opened it and saw Cassandra giving her a small smile.
"There you are, I've been trying to reach you since last week. How's your dad?"
Lily sat the mirror on her vanity with a small sigh, "He passed away the day I came back, we had his funeral on Christmas."
Cassandra placed a hand over her mouth, "Oh Lily I'm so sorry. I wish I had been there to give you a shoulder to lean on."
Lily sniffed as she held back the tears that were threatening to fall. "I didn't want to bother you or the guys about it, I mean, we've barely known each other for a few months and I didn't want to burden you. "
Cassandra gave her a comforting smile, "Don't worry about it, that's what friends are for. They are there to help you when your down and to help in homework."
Lily gave her a real smile at the little crack that Cassandra made, Cassandra winked at her before she remembered something.
"I know it's short notice and you probably wont want to, but do you want to come with me and stay at Severus' house for the rest of the break? He wanted you to come but wasn't able to contact you through the mirror. He was going to send you an owl if I didn't get you by tonight. What do you say? It will give you a nice distraction before school starts?"
Lily thought it over, she bit her lip while trying to decide. "Sure but I'd have to ask my mother first."
Cassandra smiled, "Great! I have to finish packing so when you get the O. K just use the mirror by saying vitrum videre while thinking of contacting my mirror."
Lily smiled as Cassandra waved good-bye before her face disappeared and was replaced by Lily's face, as it was reflected by the black glass. She got up and went in search of her mother, she found her in the attic.
Rosemary was a woman of many talents, she was always looking for different hobbies to occupy her time with. Lately she could be found up there working on different things, mostly to keep from thinking to much. At the moment she was painting a vase with simple green vines and small lilac colored flowers. She had bought porcelain vases so that she could decorate them on her own, she never liked the vases that they sold at the stores with the decoration already on them. She preferred doing them on her own, even if her instructions came from a book, or if it came out looking horrible. To her all it mattered was the sentiment behind the paint.
"Mom?"
Rosemary looked up and smiled at her daughter, she had her hair back in a black bandana, to keep her hair from her face which was covered in paint smudges. She wore faded overalls and a black shirt under it, she wiped her hands in a towel as Lily came up to her.
"What's the vase for?"
Rosemary looked at the vase, which was looking better than she had expected. "Its so that Dilland can have a spot for fresh flowers, I'm bringing it to him when its done."
Lily nodded before sitting down on one of the many stools, "Mom can I ask you for something?"
Rosemary looked at her with confusion but nodded, "Sure sweetheart, is there something wrong?"
Lily shook her head, "No just wanted to know if I can go stay at Severus' house with Cassandra and Dominic for the remainder of the break?"
Rosemary brought a hand to stroke Lily's cheek, "Of course Lily, you need to get out of the house anyway. I think its a good Idea."
Lily smiled before jumping of the stool and grabbing a brush, "Can I help you finish the vase before I go?"
Rosemary smiled before grabbing her own brush and going over to the vase, both of them worked in a comfortable silence as they painted. When they were done Rosemary brought the vase over to dry in front of the window. While Rosemary went into her room to change Lily went over to her own room to inform Cassandra that she was going.
"Great, I'll ask my dad if we can pick you up tonight and I'll contact Severus to tell him that your coming."
"I can get Severus if you want."
"O.K. I'll see you later."
Lily then did as Cassandra had instructed her, as she said the words, Lily concentrated on Severus' mirror, even though she had no idea if it looked like hers. She was met by the confused face of Dominic who had been writing on a piece of parchment on Severus' desk.
"Lily! We've been trying to contact you for a while, Cassandra just owled that she contacted you and to keep the mirror free. How've you been holding up?"
Lily shrugged, "Just taking it one day at a time. Where's Severus?"
"He'll be back in a few, he went to help his mother with something for the dinner party that they are having. Are you going to stay here?"
"Yeah but I didn't know that Severus' parents were having a dinner party."
Dominic shrugged, "I didn't know either, they told Severus this morning. He's helping move some of furniture since his Dads over at the Ministry. I was just down there but I got an owl from my Mom."
"Is it an Adult thing?"
"Nope we have to attend to since were staying here. It wont be so bad the other guests are bringing their children."
"When is it exactly?"
Dominic looked thoughtful for a moment as he tried to remember, "Um its tomorrow I think, we have to wear dress robes. You have some right?"
Lily nodded, "Yeah my mother bought me some in August."
Dominic smiled, "Good. Listen I have to go back and help Severus, I'll tell him that your coming with Cassandra."
Lily waved, "I'll see you tonight."
Dominic flashed her a grin and disappeared. Lily hadn't really taken much out of her trunk since she had plenty of clothes there. She just made sure that her dress robes where in place and that she put the mirror back in before she left. Ciaron was out sending a letter to Petunia, who had already gone back to school so she placed Nagini in her basket and shrunk her tank. She got dressed in black robes and waited for Cassandra to arrive.
Soon she heard a doorbell she raced downstairs and asked the butler to bring her trunk and her pets down as she passed him. Her mother was at the door greeting Cassandra and her father. He was a short handsome man with a neatly trimmed beard.
"A pleasure to meet you Mr. McGonagall." said Rosemary as she shook his hand.
"Call me Eros, and the pleasure is mine."
Lily went up to them and was pulled into a hug by Cassandra, "Oh Lily, I'm so sorry about your dad."
Lily closed her eyes and willed herself not to cry, "Its O. K, how've you been?"
"Bored, there's nothing to do at my house."
"Are you two ready to go?"
Lily's trunk had already been moved outside, Eros and Rosemary were waiting for them. They all went outside where a wooden carriage was waiting, the horses were black, contrasting with the white snow that surrounded them, and the driver was a small house elf. Lily looked at it with a raise eyebrow.
"Um, don't you think the muggles will notice?"
Cassandra smiled, "Nah, they cant see it and it moves really fast. Dad doesn't like me using floo powder or portkeys so we usually travel by carriage. The horses are magical and can move as fast as sound."
Lily looked in awe at the two horses, their coat were shinny and looked silky to the touch. She snapped out of it and said Good-bye to her mother.
"Write to me as soon as you can."
"I will, tell Tom I'll write to him too."
Rosemary smiled as she hugged her daughter, "I'm sure he'll like that. Have fun."
~*~
Rosemary watched as the carriage disappeared before reaching the iron gate that surrounded their property. She walked inside and noticed how quiet it was. She detested the eerie silence, she felt uncomfortable in the house at the moment. She walked into the kitchen and told the staff that they could have the rest of the week off and to come back in 5 days. She paid them their bonus's that she had forgotten to give them before and gave them an advance for the rest of the week. The staff thanked her and left to spend time with their family.
After they had left she walked around the house trying to find something to do before she went mad. She thought about watching the Television, but quickly nixed the idea since there was never anything on. She walked into the Library and climbed the ladder to find a book to read. She skimmed through the tittles until she found one that caught her eye. She climbed back down and sat on a couch by an open window that let in the cold air. She was wearing a thick sweater so she wasn't bothered by the breeze.
After a few hours of reading her eyes grew tired, she got up and stretched. She looked at the clock on the mantle over the fireplace and saw that it was only nine O'clock. She decided on going to bed early and went upstairs. She entered the Master bedroom and got dressed in her black nightgown. She lit a fire in the fireplace and slipped in the bed.
Rosemary slipped in and out of the conscious world as she couldn't sleep. She gave up after about an hour or two of tossing and turning. She sat up and wrapped her arms around her legs and resting her chin on her knees. As she looked down she saw the gleam from her bracelet. She hadn't been with Tom in a few months now and he had been very supportive about it. She had been taking care of Dilland the whole time spending all of her time with him and making sure he was a comfortable as possible. Tom had understood and gave her all the space she needed.
At the moment she only needed him, she had seen him this morning when she woke up to find him trying to cook breakfast the normal way. After they had eaten he said he had to go to Gringotts to sort something out. She decided to go to him. She brought her bracelet to her face and whispered her name as she touched its emerald green eyes. She waited and just when she thought it wasn't going to respond it did by glowing brightly a neon green. She touched its ruby tongue and said Toms name. Soon she felt the familiar tug behind her navel and saw her room blend into a swirl of colors.
~*~
Lily went inside and sat facing the front with Cassandra who was playing with Nagini.
"Has Nagini missed her aunty Cassy?"
Nagini simply responded by hissing and flicking her tongue at Cassandra. Eros sat in front of them and just shook his head as Cassandra made baby noises at Nagini who just wanted to go back to sleep. Lily noticed Nagini's boredom so she rescued her from Cassandra and set her back in her basket. Cassandra pouted like a small child.
"But she wanted to play with me."
Lily smiled as she saw Eros rubbing his temples, "I think she was sleepy."
Cassandra shrugged and forgot about it quickly, "I can't wait till the Dinner Party tomorrow, Severus told me this morning that everyone is invited so there's going to be kids from Hogwarts."
"I know Dominic told me."
Cassandra grinned mischievously, "Did he also tell you his newly developed speech problem?"
Lily looked confused, "No, what speech problem, he's usually the one who talks the most?"
Cassandra's grin grew, "According to Severus, our cool sophisticated Latin friend turns into a blundering idiot at the sight of Evelyn, Severus' sister."
Lily raised an eyebrow at the thought of Dominic acting out of character, "How much of an idiot?"
"He can't even speak right, he just nods at whatever she says and when he tries to speak he ends up cussing in Spanish. I'm so going to make fun of him."
Lily rolled her eyes at Cassandra but still cracked a smile. They continued to talk as Eros sat going through paperwork, soon they arrived at Snape Manor, where they were greeted by Severus' mother and sister.
"You must be Lily and Cassandra, I'm so glad that you could stay here and come to our dinner party." Said Severus' mother. She was a graceful and beautiful woman, she had her dark brown hair in a loose bun.
Eros climbed out of the carriage and greeted her warmly, "Isabel, you're looking as beautiful as ever."
He turned to Evelyn who was standing next to her, "Evelyn, how nice to see you. You are looking well."
Evelyn bowed slightly, "Thank you Mr. McGonagall."
Eros laughed, "So polite, what's your secret Isabel, I could use it with Cassandra here."
Cassandra scowled, Isabel smiled at her. "I'm sure your father is just exaggerating."
Eros said good-bye to his daughter and Lily before stepping inside the Carriage and disappearing into the horizon. Both girls were led inside to see house elves running around putting up decorations. They saw Severus and Dominic moving a few tables with their wands inside the large dinning room. They stopped when they saw that the girls had arrived. Dominic pulled Lily into a hug and Severus had no choice to hug Cassandra since she practically tackled him. Then they switched, Severus hugged Lily as if she might break.
"I'm sorry about what happened, you know you can always come to me for anything. I'll always listen."
Lily felt a bit teary eyed as Severus a person who rarely expressed any emotion was being comforting, "Thank you Severus, but right now I just want to forget about everything."
Severus pulled back and nodded in understanding. He asked his mother if their was something else she wanted done, but she told him that they could go and have fun. She went with Evelyn to the Rec. Room as Severus showed the girls his room where Cassandra let out a whistle.
"Like your bed Sev," She sat on it testing its bouncing factor, "great for jumping. Lots of pillows."
"Don't even think about it." Severus was looking at Cassandra as if to challenge her. She returned the look, but in a mocking sort of way. They had a bit of a starring contest until Dominic decided to take his revenge on Severus for the whole Evelyn issue.
"Aww look Lily, I think their about to kiss! How cute!"
Both Lily and Dominic looked at each other before laughing hysterically. They were doubled over and clutching their midsection. Their laughter was abruptly stopped as they were hit by pillows straight on the face. Soon pillows were flying all over the large room. It was every person for themselves. Cassandra smacked Dominic on his head with a large pillow that sent him falling to the floor where he grabbed a skinny, but easier to move, pillow and whacked her repeatedly before she cried uncle.
Lily was on a face off with Severus each with medium sized pillows each and scary grins on their faces. They charged at the same time, both pillows hit where they where aimed.
After a while they collapsed on the floor exhausted, they started talking about nothing in particular. Soon they started to drift to sleep, Cassandra on Severus' shoulder, Dominic's head on Cassandra's lap, and Lily on Severus' other side, her arms wrapped around his midsection her head on his chest. The four friends lay together on the floor, inseparable.
~*~
Magnus arrived at his home tired from all of the paperwork he had from the ministry. He went into the living room where he saw his wife sitting next to the fire reading a book. He joined her on the persian rug and wrapped his armes around her, she leaned back and rested her head on his chest.
"She's here."
"I know, Eros told me at work."
Isabel sighed and closed her eyes, "I'm getting tired of this Magnus, this is not the life I want for my children. We are using our son to betray his friend."
"But I'm doing this for our children, Isabel. I'm doing this so that they can have an easy future."
Isabel got up, anger was written all over her graceful face. "Don't lie to me Magnus, the only reason your going along with his plans is because you want power, you crave it. And he can easily give it to you, thats the only reason your there. If it weren't for the fact that Belinda Anguis is going to help us in figuring out what our daughter has, I would not have joined this stupid group."
Magnus got up and tried to hug his wife, she fidgeted at first but soon melted into his embrace. They held each other, the orange and red flames from the fire flickered and casted shadows all over the room.
"Isabel, I know you are worried about Evelyn, but you'll see, she will get better. If Belinda doesn't find a cure Severus will, thats why he's becoming her apprentice this summer. Do you think I trusted Belinda with something this important? I'm bidding my time until Severus can help Evelyn. And I know he can do it, my faith is in our son."
Magnus led Isabel upstairs and into their bedroom, they silently got into their sleeping clothes and slipped into bed. Isabel snuggled against Magnus' chest thinking about things that she didn't think sharing was something she wanted to do. Magnus wrapped his arms around her waist thinking about what she had said. They both ended up sleaping restlessly, thinking about the Dinner party they were holding as a disguise for the Death Eater meeting.

Tom arrived at his house tired with a sore neck. He had just spent hours at Gringotts opening a few bank accounts, one for Rosemary, Lily, and Petunia. He didn't know why, but he felt the need to make sure they had money in case something were to happen during the attack that he was planning on the ministry. Both Petunias and Rosemary's accounts were in Muggle currency and Lily's were in Wizarding. He wanted to make sure that the Ministry weren't able to take his money and house in case something went wrong. He set his briefcase down on his desk and opened it up. He took the papers and placed them inside the bottom drawer and locked it with a large brass key.
He saw something glowing from the inside of his shirt, he brought his necklace out and saw the eyes glowing brightly. He muttered a spell and walked up to his bedroom where he found Rosemary sitting on his bed in her nightgown.
She got up and wrapped her arms around his chest. Instinctively he did the same burying his face in her hair, taking in the scent of strawberry's that drove him crazy. He felt her taking off his robes slowly as well as his shirt. She was taking her time, memorizing his body in the process, soon he was completely nude. She then slid of her nightgown and laid on the bed looking like she needed something. Tom crawled on the bed over her body.
She took his face into hers and said in a small soft voice, "Make love to me Tom."
Her eyes were pleading and sad, wanting comfort. He responded by giving her a soft loving kiss. He kissed her body slowly, lovingly, wanting to become one with her in a way he was never able to do with any other woman he had been with. He felt her wrap her long legs around him, urging him to continue. He entered her enjoying her warmth, it took all of his self control to keep from letting himself go. He moved slowly, all the while she held on to him, afraid to let go. She buried her face against his shoulder, gasping as she felt her first climax take over her body. She moved her hips against his wanting for him to go faster. He pumped into her faster and faster, she threw her head back and screamed his name. He still kept going bringing her close to a second orgasm, she clung to his neck and whispered in his ear.
"Tell me you love me, I want to hear you say it."
He had said it to her only a few times before, each time it was hard because to him the word love didn't compare to what he felt for her. He felt her second orgasm as her inner walls closed around him, which sent him over the edge. Panting he kissed her with as much passion that he could possibly posses.
"I love you more than life itself, I live for you and I would die for you."
Rosemary kissed him with all the love she could give, he responded and felt himself getting aroused once more. They continued again with their lovemaking that lasted all night and into the next morning where the winter sun shone through the dark curtains and onto their tangled sweaty bodies.

(An: The following was written after countless hours of trying to find the deleted scenes on the Harry Potter DVD. I was so damn frustrated with it, I looked through both disks, I forgot about this fic. Sorry ^_^. But you'll be happy to know that I finally found it and was able to enjoy my widescreen DVD in peace. Hence the fact that I actually updated.)
~*~
Evelyn sat in her room the same size as her brothers, combing her raven hair. The party would be starting soon and people where already arriving. She was wearing robes the color of the moon when it was at its fullest, it was long sleeve and had a silver tassel around her waist. She then proceeded to add on a matching cloak made up of silvery material that had the family crest in the back. A silver falcon its graceful wings wrapped around itself and its beak held high in the air, its eyes black as night looking straight at you, where no matter where your standing they will follow your every movement.
She heard a knock on her door, "Enter."
Lily and Cassandra, whom Evelyn had taken a liking to after they spent the morning together, came in both wearing their own dressrobes and ready to go downstairs. Lily's were black with silver and light blue stars that shimmered in the light at the hem and the cuffs of the sleeves, she wore a black cloak and her hair was down and wore it straight. Cassandra's were violet with darker shades of purple in loopy designs around the skirt with a matching cloak, her hair was combed back in a long braid that had violet ribbon braided in.
Cassandra looked her over and clapped her hands together, "Evelyn you look great!"
Evelyn smiled, "Thank you, you both look great too."
They both thanked her and Lily spoke, "Your mother asked us to tell you that we have to go down soon. Do you want to go down together?"
"Sure, just let me get my necklace."
She opened a wooden jewelry box and took a silver necklace out, it had a crescent moon pendant that her father had given to her for Christmas. As they walked down the spiral staircase that lead to the dining room Evelyn clasped the necklace around her neck. She spotted her brother with Dominic over by a window where they were talking to a few of the guests' children that they seemed to know from school. There whereas many boys as there were girls in their little group.
Severus was wearing black robes and cloak and as Evelyn he also had the family crest on his cloak. He turned and smiled up at the girls as they reached the bottom. Evelyn smiled back but it wavered as she felt the beginnings of a headache. Her vision blurred but she shook it off as her brother swept her up into a hug.
"You look great."
Evelyn smiled at him and fixed the clasp of his cloak, "You look like dad in these robes."
Severus chuckled and looked over at Cassandra and Lily and said loudly, "I can't believe that Cassandra actually looks like a girl today."
Cassandra narrowed her eyes at him but eventually chose to ignore him, "Lucius, I see your parents made you come."
A boy older than Evelyn, with dark hair, gray eyes, and pointed features looked bored at Cassandra, "Yes, but everyone else is going to come, even some of your housemates."
"Who?" asked Lily.
Lucius Malfoy scrunched up his face in disgust, "Black, Potter, and Lupin, so naturally their little tag along is coming too."
Dominic groaned as they made their way to one of the many tables, "Great, just what I need, Black trying to play a prank on me and Severus. I thought the point of break is so that we don't have to put up with them."
Cassandra sighed as she sat down on the chair that Lucius held out for her, "I know their my housemates but sometimes I just want to grab Sirius and dump his head in a toilet."
Dominic shyly held out Evelyn's chair which she thanked him for sincerely since her vision was getting worse and needed to sit down.
Lily thanked Severus as he held her chair out for her and said calmly, "And then we could attach said toilet to his arse and put up a sign that says 'Flush me.'"
The table started laughing at the mental image that Lily had described. Narcissa Devlin a pretty girl with silver blond hair and blue eyes spoke up.
"When you two say things like that it makes me wonder if you were sorted properly."
The table agreed and Cassandra and Lily shrugged. Evelyn excused herself from the table after a few minutes telling her brother that she would be back soon. As soon as she was out of the Dinning room she ran back to her bedroom looking for her potion. She started seeing black spots in her line of vision, she felt dizzy as she felt her head throb in pain. She leaned against a wall trying to catch her breath, she found the doorknob to her bedroom and went in. On her dresser was a green vial she grabbed it as her knees gave out, she uncorked it and took its contents in one quick gulp.
She waited a moment before standing up and testing to see if it had worked. It had but she could still feel the throbbing from her temples. She went to her dresser and poured herself a glass of water from the pitcher. She then left her bedroom and made her way back to the party.
~*~
Lily laughed as Dominic tried to make an impression of their Potions Professor, Professor Wakefeel an old man who could barely stand on his own two feet. The fact that Dominic had a Spanish accent made it even funnier.
Lucius nudged at Lionel Parkinson, "Look Mr. Riddle showed up."
"Tom? Where?"
Lucius looked at her weirdly, "How do you know Mr. Riddle?"
Lily bit her lip, "He's my mothers friend."
Lily looked up to see Magnus greeting Tom with a firm handshake, she smiled and stood.
"Tom!"
He looked over surprised but grinned as Lily tackled him into a hug, "Lily what are you doing here?"
"Severus invited me to stay, I thought Mom would have told you?"
"She did but she didn't say who." He twirled her around in front of him, "You look beautiful. I like your robes, they suit you, they make you look more mature."
Lily smiled at him, "Thanks."
Tom smiled back at her, "Why don't you go sit down with your friends, Magnus said that dinner is about to start."
~*~
Severus watched with interest as Lily talked to Tom, he was the only one on their table that knows how they were connected and he had to make sure it looked like he didn't either. When he had agreed to do this for Belinda he had never thought that he would care about Lily, but now, only after a few months he cared about her. She was his best friend, her, Cassandra, and Dominic where the only true friends he had. But every time Lily confided in him he felt a pain in his heart because he would have to report it to Belinda. He hated doing so, he had even told his parents, but his father needed him to continue for Evelyn's sake.
He stood as Lily came back and held her chair out again, at that moment he heard a voice that made his temper rise.
"Who knew that slimy gits like Snape could act almost human."
Severus balled his fists as he turned around to face Sirius Black who had just arrived with James Potters family who were seated up front with the adults. He wore robes of dark red and his cloak was the same color. James was standing next to him with Remus and Peter, they all had mischievous grins on their faces as they already had some prank on their minds.
"If you don't mind Black, we are about to start dinner and its rude to act barbaric in someone else's house." Said Dominic who had stood as soon as he heard Sirius speak, his anger was noticeable since his accent thickened.
(AN: I have the same problem, normally I don't have an accent and people confuse me for a white girl, but when I'm pissed I sound like an immigrant who just crossed the US Border.)
James raised an eyebrow, "What's the matter Snape, you need LeFay to speak for you?"
"What's the matter Potter, need Black to drag you along on a short leash?"
James steeped up as did Severus but Lily got in their way, "Will you two stop and act civil and polite at least during dinner. If you still feel like acting like a bunch of idiots take it outside in the freezing cold."
With that she sat back down without needing anyone to pull her chair out and struck a conversation with Narcissa, at that moment everyone heard music playing in the air. James just shook his head, at her and looked back at Sirius.
"She's right."
Sirius rolled his eyes, "Whatever, we'll settle this after dinner."
Severus nodded, "Fine, but disrespect my home like this again and I will have your head on a platter."
Remus nudged Sirius and their little group went over to a free table, as Remus was pulling out his chair, he bumped into someone. She landed on her bottom her head down and her hair in her face. He went over to her and checked if she was O.K.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to bump in to you, can I help you up?"
He held out his hand which she took gratefully, "Thank you."
"Are you O. K?"
She smiled, which he returned, and nodded, but the smile didn't last as she saw her brother go over to Remus and punch him straight on the nose. Remus' head snapped to the side and he fumbled back. Dominic held Severus back as Lily and Cassandra rushed over to James and Sirius to keep them from going at it with Severus. The adults didn't notice as the food had already arrived, they were on the tables across the room chatting as they ate their meal.
Evelyn went over to Remus's side helping him up and glared back at her older brother who was fuming, "What was that for Severus, he apologized for knocking me down."
Severus chose to ignore her comment and shrugged Dominic off. He went over to Remus and grabbed his collar.
"You. Me. Rec. room. NOW!"
Remus pushed him off his eyes gleaming with anger. "Your on Snape."
Severus brushed past him and went through a wall that was actually one of the many entrances to the Rec. Room. Remus followed, followed by Evelyn and the rest of the table.
Inside Severus took off his cloak and the his robes leaving him in slacks and a button down black shirt. Remus did the same and threw them aside. Evelyn tried to talk her brother out of it.
"Severus stop, please there's no point to it."
"No one touches you without facing me." He looked over to Dominic and asked him to make sure no one interfered. He nodded as Severus walked toward Remus, Remus met him with a punch. Punches were traded as they tried to beat the other bloody. Lily and Cassandra tried to stop them but were stopped by Dominic who shook his head. Evelyn started yelling at them to stop and screamed as Severus was knocked to the floor. He quickly got up and tackled Remus. Evelyn tried to go over to them but was held back by Dominic who held her from her waist.
"Evelyn just let him get it out of his system."
"Dominic let me go! Their going to kill each other!"
With the frustration of her brother fighting she felt the potion wear off, she held her head in both hands and leaned against Dominic. Her head throbbed in pain and she felt a cold chill run through her body. She gasped as the pain consumed her senses, she couldn't see, she couldn't hear, and she couldn't feel as Dominic shook her to get her attention. She let out a choked whimper that made Dominic think he was holding her to tightly and let her go. That, of course was a mistake, as soon as he did her knees gave out and she collapsed on the floor. Dominic caught her head before it hit the wood.
Dominic shook her gently trying to wake her up, Lily and Cassandra were at his side asking if she was O.K. Lily then went over to the still going fight and went right in between them.
"If you two can stop for a moment, I can tell you that Evelyn just passed out!"
Severus's eyes widened as did Remus', Severus turned to see his sisters pale form being held by Dominic. He rushed to her side and touched her forehead and felt her body temperature rising to above normal. He himself was badly bruised and in pain but nevertheless he scooped her up ignoring the sharp pain at his side. He glared at Remus as he passed him on his way to the wall where he instructed Dominic who was next to him to turn the antique candle holder to the right. He did and the wall opened up to show a wooden stair case. Severus carried his sister up the stairs and out of sight followed by Dominic who shot a deadly glare at Remus before he disappeared.
Lily was about to go after them when James stopped her, "Why do you insist on associate yourself with such pricks Lily?"
He looked sincere about his question, this made Lily frown with agitation. "I can say the same about you James."
He was about to respond when she raised a hand to silence him, "Tend to your friend James, and I shall tend to mine."
With that she left up the stairs closely followed by Cassandra who closed the wall behind her. James shook his head and went over to Remus who was as bruised as Severus had been before he had left. He saw that the other Slytherins were going back to the dinner party. Peter was trying to help Remus clean his wound above his eye with a handkerchief, but Remus just brushed him off and grabbed his robes and cloak.
"Come on lets go back to dinner." His robes were loose around his shoulders and he held his cloak in his hands, he refused to look at his friends as he went through the wall and back into dinning room.

AN: I wish to apoligise for the last chapter, you see I was going to have a fencing sceene not a sword fighting sceene, there is a big differance, and when I changed my mind I forgot to go back and fix it, sorry to those who enjoy the sport. I will be rewriting it when I finish the fic. I'm going to go back and Revamp everything, as in every chapter not just the last one, before I start the next part. There are to many typos and spelling errors to fix but nothing major will be changed.
Vegeta: ~Grumbles~dumbass.
DPF: ~Narrows eyes at him~ Shut up unless you want me to wite a slash fic with you and Goku doing sweaty hot monkey love......wait I'll do that anyway!!
Vegeta: ~eyes widen like dinner plates~ You wouldn't actually do that would you?
DPF:Maybe :::Insert evil grin here::: ~looks around......POUNCE!!!~
GIR: YAY! I'm in charge of thanking the reviewer people. ~plays a techno CD and starts raving.
DPF: Vegeta remind me not to let GIR be in charge of anything.
Vegeta: mphftffffpmmmmrrrrgggrrr
DPF: Shush I need to thank my reviewers before getting some coffee.
Ahem
Isys I hope that after reading all of the chapters that you like it and like Tom more in the process.

dedbabydoll I liked your review, I like my version of Tom Riddle since I doubt his personality will be explained much in the next books. Thanks ^_^
angel-eyes Dont worry Belinda will get whats coming to her, though I doubt that anyone will guess what I'm going to do to her.....hehehe.
madi Tom is the smartest man when it comes to everything but when it comes to someone other than Rosemary Seduce him he's oblivious. Not Everyone knows, just the Death Eaters, Tom, and Severus. Lily will find out when she does and you have to just wait patiently ^_^
someone I'm sorry if I offended you but as you probably already read I will fix it when I finish the story.
tee Vampire Piggies are waaaaay cuter than their cow bretherin, and they squeek when they feed.
Lucky aka Jessica-Canada/OGM awww I wanna see spider man! I haven't been able to since I've been sick. I saw star wars though Anikin is so hot.
Electra your reading my fic slowly aren't you?Well either way I got the idea from one of my many odd dreams. Hehehe I love my dialogue too I like to make Tom sound cool. By the time you read this you'll already know that Dilland is dead. So sad but the show must go on.
Nagini the fact that the idea for that plot crossed my mind is scary.
green smurf we need to decide wheere we will have our grand empire headquarters where we shall rule with an iron fist!!! hopefully somewhere nice and cold.
LiLkRiSsY ~bows~ thank you ~wipes away a tear~ so kind.
Angel Of Doom sorry but to some of ur ?'s I can't anwser at the moment without giving the plot away. Its scary but you and a few other people read my mind on the whole Lily staying at Severus and Tom seeing her there.
Darkfire75 awww your review is giving me an ego boost the size of a small country.
buttermallow your going to have to wait and see my Tom at the point where he is no longer human and kills Lily. Its going to be so sad.
Mickiee thanks I've never heard that word before sounds shibby though.
katalina o'riley I think we all wish to be in Rosemary's shoes.
Renai I wish their where more Tom Riddle stories it would make everything cool in our little world.
skitzo my experiance on that day was what inspired me to write that, so I hold no gruges.....the fact that I was choking on a penut the day I wrote it is sad....
MercuryRed If you like happy endings then I suggest that you not read the last few chapters ^_^ just a suggestion.
maharahja-li-vincent I love that song Chester has such a pretty voice.
Lily thanks for the review I love my story and I love my computer.
Kilohana I can blink too! I like angst its shibby. I read one of ur fics and left a review. I'd read the rest but I need coffee so I'll do it tomorrow after I post this. I like to thank my reviewers because they took the time to write something down to make me feel better. I love Sirius I mean I have a few pics that I drew of him...... um hehehe nevermind........ anyway he will be nicer and have more scenes towards the end of this fic and he's VERY important in the next one.
Now its about two in the morning while I'm writing this so I need cafine and some snacks and I have to return Vegeta to his section. I've turned into an insomniac so I'll be up till three and wake up at five to take care of the demon spawn, my baby bro.
I think its cuz of my medicine for my migraines, it has cafine. I get them at the worst time and I've passed out in public before. It sucks cuz the medicine doesn't work anymore. I have one at the moment but not much I can do so me and GIR are going to go get some Lucky Charms and some coffee.
GIR: YUM MARCHMALLOWS!!!!

Lily sat in her bedroom combing her hair in front of her vanity. She had just had breakfast that had been made by Tom, who had made an attempt to cook breakfast the muggle way but failed miserably so he used magic. It was a few days after the funeral and Lily had been to weak to get out of bed until today. She forced herself to get up, tired of doing nothing all day, she planned on going out side and walking in the garden even though everything was dead during the winter.
"Lily? Lily are you there?"
Lily dropped her brush in shock as she heard Cassandra's voice, it sounded muffled and distorted. Lily realized that it was coming from her trunk. She ran to the foot of her bed and opened her trunk. The mahogany box was at the very top, Lily opened it and saw Cassandra giving her a small smile.
"There you are, I've been trying to reach you since last week. How's your dad?"
Lily sat the mirror on her vanity with a small sigh, "He passed away the day I came back, we had his funeral on Christmas."
Cassandra placed a hand over her mouth, "Oh Lily I'm so sorry. I wish I had been there to give you a shoulder to lean on."
Lily sniffed as she held back the tears that were threatening to fall. "I didn't want to bother you or the guys about it, I mean, we've barely known each other for a few months and I didn't want to burden you. "
Cassandra gave her a comforting smile, "Don't worry about it, that's what friends are for. They are there to help you when your down and to help in homework."
Lily gave her a real smile at the little crack that Cassandra made, Cassandra winked at her before she remembered something.
"I know it's short notice and you probably wont want to, but do you want to come with me and stay at Severus' house for the rest of the break? He wanted you to come but wasn't able to contact you through the mirror. He was going to send you an owl if I didn't get you by tonight. What do you say? It will give you a nice distraction before school starts?"
Lily thought it over, she bit her lip while trying to decide. "Sure but I'd have to ask my mother first."
Cassandra smiled, "Great! I have to finish packing so when you get the O. K just use the mirror by saying vitrum videre while thinking of contacting my mirror."
Lily smiled as Cassandra waved good-bye before her face disappeared and was replaced by Lily's face, as it was reflected by the black glass. She got up and went in search of her mother, she found her in the attic.
Rosemary was a woman of many talents, she was always looking for different hobbies to occupy her time with. Lately she could be found up there working on different things, mostly to keep from thinking to much. At the moment she was painting a vase with simple green vines and small lilac colored flowers. She had bought porcelain vases so that she could decorate them on her own, she never liked the vases that they sold at the stores with the decoration already on them. She preferred doing them on her own, even if her instructions came from a book, or if it came out looking horrible. To her all it mattered was the sentiment behind the paint.
"Mom?"
Rosemary looked up and smiled at her daughter, she had her hair back in a black bandana, to keep her hair from her face which was covered in paint smudges. She wore faded overalls and a black shirt under it, she wiped her hands in a towel as Lily came up to her.
"What's the vase for?"
Rosemary looked at the vase, which was looking better than she had expected. "Its so that Dilland can have a spot for fresh flowers, I'm bringing it to him when its done."
Lily nodded before sitting down on one of the many stools, "Mom can I ask you for something?"
Rosemary looked at her with confusion but nodded, "Sure sweetheart, is there something wrong?"
Lily shook her head, "No just wanted to know if I can go stay at Severus' house with Cassandra and Dominic for the remainder of the break?"
Rosemary brought a hand to stroke Lily's cheek, "Of course Lily, you need to get out of the house anyway. I think its a good Idea."
Lily smiled before jumping of the stool and grabbing a brush, "Can I help you finish the vase before I go?"
Rosemary smiled before grabbing her own brush and going over to the vase, both of them worked in a comfortable silence as they painted. When they were done Rosemary brought the vase over to dry in front of the window. While Rosemary went into her room to change Lily went over to her own room to inform Cassandra that she was going.
"Great, I'll ask my dad if we can pick you up tonight and I'll contact Severus to tell him that your coming."
"I can get Severus if you want."
"O.K. I'll see you later."
Lily then did as Cassandra had instructed her, as she said the words, Lily concentrated on Severus' mirror, even though she had no idea if it looked like hers. She was met by the confused face of Dominic who had been writing on a piece of parchment on Severus' desk.
"Lily! We've been trying to contact you for a while, Cassandra just owled that she contacted you and to keep the mirror free. How've you been holding up?"
Lily shrugged, "Just taking it one day at a time. Where's Severus?"
"He'll be back in a few, he went to help his mother with something for the dinner party that they are having. Are you going to stay here?"
"Yeah but I didn't know that Severus' parents were having a dinner party."
Dominic shrugged, "I didn't know either, they told Severus this morning. He's helping move some of furniture since his Dads over at the Ministry. I was just down there but I got an owl from my Mom."
"Is it an Adult thing?"
"Nope we have to attend to since were staying here. It wont be so bad the other guests are bringing their children."
"When is it exactly?"
Dominic looked thoughtful for a moment as he tried to remember, "Um its tomorrow I think, we have to wear dress robes. You have some right?"
Lily nodded, "Yeah my mother bought me some in August."
Dominic smiled, "Good. Listen I have to go back and help Severus, I'll tell him that your coming with Cassandra."
Lily waved, "I'll see you tonight."
Dominic flashed her a grin and disappeared. Lily hadn't really taken much out of her trunk since she had plenty of clothes there. She just made sure that her dress robes where in place and that she put the mirror back in before she left. Ciaron was out sending a letter to Petunia, who had already gone back to school so she placed Nagini in her basket and shrunk her tank. She got dressed in black robes and waited for Cassandra to arrive.
Soon she heard a doorbell she raced downstairs and asked the butler to bring her trunk and her pets down as she passed him. Her mother was at the door greeting Cassandra and her father. He was a short handsome man with a neatly trimmed beard.
"A pleasure to meet you Mr. McGonagall." said Rosemary as she shook his hand.
"Call me Eros, and the pleasure is mine."
Lily went up to them and was pulled into a hug by Cassandra, "Oh Lily, I'm so sorry about your dad."
Lily closed her eyes and willed herself not to cry, "Its O. K, how've you been?"
"Bored, there's nothing to do at my house."
"Are you two ready to go?"
Lily's trunk had already been moved outside, Eros and Rosemary were waiting for them. They all went outside where a wooden carriage was waiting, the horses were black, contrasting with the white snow that surrounded them, and the driver was a small house elf. Lily looked at it with a raise eyebrow.
"Um, don't you think the muggles will notice?"
Cassandra smiled, "Nah, they cant see it and it moves really fast. Dad doesn't like me using floo powder or portkeys so we usually travel by carriage. The horses are magical and can move as fast as sound."
Lily looked in awe at the two horses, their coat were shinny and looked silky to the touch. She snapped out of it and said Good-bye to her mother.
"Write to me as soon as you can."
"I will, tell Tom I'll write to him too."
Rosemary smiled as she hugged her daughter, "I'm sure he'll like that. Have fun."
~*~
Rosemary watched as the carriage disappeared before reaching the iron gate that surrounded their property. She walked inside and noticed how quiet it was. She detested the eerie silence, she felt uncomfortable in the house at the moment. She walked into the kitchen and told the staff that they could have the rest of the week off and to come back in 5 days. She paid them their bonus's that she had forgotten to give them before and gave them an advance for the rest of the week. The staff thanked her and left to spend time with their family.
After they had left she walked around the house trying to find something to do before she went mad. She thought about watching the Television, but quickly nixed the idea since there was never anything on. She walked into the Library and climbed the ladder to find a book to read. She skimmed through the tittles until she found one that caught her eye. She climbed back down and sat on a couch by an open window that let in the cold air. She was wearing a thick sweater so she wasn't bothered by the breeze.
After a few hours of reading her eyes grew tired, she got up and stretched. She looked at the clock on the mantle over the fireplace and saw that it was only nine O'clock. She decided on going to bed early and went upstairs. She entered the Master bedroom and got dressed in her black nightgown. She lit a fire in the fireplace and slipped in the bed.
Rosemary slipped in and out of the conscious world as she couldn't sleep. She gave up after about an hour or two of tossing and turning. She sat up and wrapped her arms around her legs and resting her chin on her knees. As she looked down she saw the gleam from her bracelet. She hadn't been with Tom in a few months now and he had been very supportive about it. She had been taking care of Dilland the whole time spending all of her time with him and making sure he was a comfortable as possible. Tom had understood and gave her all the space she needed.
At the moment she only needed him, she had seen him this morning when she woke up to find him trying to cook breakfast the normal way. After they had eaten he said he had to go to Gringotts to sort something out. She decided to go to him. She brought her bracelet to her face and whispered her name as she touched its emerald green eyes. She waited and just when she thought it wasn't going to respond it did by glowing brightly a neon green. She touched its ruby tongue and said Toms name. Soon she felt the familiar tug behind her navel and saw her room blend into a swirl of colors.
~*~
Lily went inside and sat facing the front with Cassandra who was playing with Nagini.
"Has Nagini missed her aunty Cassy?"
Nagini simply responded by hissing and flicking her tongue at Cassandra. Eros sat in front of them and just shook his head as Cassandra made baby noises at Nagini who just wanted to go back to sleep. Lily noticed Nagini's boredom so she rescued her from Cassandra and set her back in her basket. Cassandra pouted like a small child.
"But she wanted to play with me."
Lily smiled as she saw Eros rubbing his temples, "I think she was sleepy."
Cassandra shrugged and forgot about it quickly, "I can't wait till the Dinner Party tomorrow, Severus told me this morning that everyone is invited so there's going to be kids from Hogwarts."
"I know Dominic told me."
Cassandra grinned mischievously, "Did he also tell you his newly developed speech problem?"
Lily looked confused, "No, what speech problem, he's usually the one who talks the most?"
Cassandra's grin grew, "According to Severus, our cool sophisticated Latin friend turns into a blundering idiot at the sight of Evelyn, Severus' sister."
Lily raised an eyebrow at the thought of Dominic acting out of character, "How much of an idiot?"
"He can't even speak right, he just nods at whatever she says and when he tries to speak he ends up cussing in Spanish. I'm so going to make fun of him."
Lily rolled her eyes at Cassandra but still cracked a smile. They continued to talk as Eros sat going through paperwork, soon they arrived at Snape Manor, where they were greeted by Severus' mother and sister.
"You must be Lily and Cassandra, I'm so glad that you could stay here and come to our dinner party." Said Severus' mother. She was a graceful and beautiful woman, she had her dark brown hair in a loose bun.
Eros climbed out of the carriage and greeted her warmly, "Isabel, you're looking as beautiful as ever."
He turned to Evelyn who was standing next to her, "Evelyn, how nice to see you. You are looking well."
Evelyn bowed slightly, "Thank you Mr. McGonagall."
Eros laughed, "So polite, what's your secret Isabel, I could use it with Cassandra here."
Cassandra scowled, Isabel smiled at her. "I'm sure your father is just exaggerating."
Eros said good-bye to his daughter and Lily before stepping inside the Carriage and disappearing into the horizon. Both girls were led inside to see house elves running around putting up decorations. They saw Severus and Dominic moving a few tables with their wands inside the large dinning room. They stopped when they saw that the girls had arrived. Dominic pulled Lily into a hug and Severus had no choice to hug Cassandra since she practically tackled him. Then they switched, Severus hugged Lily as if she might break.
"I'm sorry about what happened, you know you can always come to me for anything. I'll always listen."
Lily felt a bit teary eyed as Severus a person who rarely expressed any emotion was being comforting, "Thank you Severus, but right now I just want to forget about everything."
Severus pulled back and nodded in understanding. He asked his mother if their was something else she wanted done, but she told him that they could go and have fun. She went with Evelyn to the Rec. Room as Severus showed the girls his room where Cassandra let out a whistle.
"Like your bed Sev," She sat on it testing its bouncing factor, "great for jumping. Lots of pillows."
"Don't even think about it." Severus was looking at Cassandra as if to challenge her. She returned the look, but in a mocking sort of way. They had a bit of a starring contest until Dominic decided to take his revenge on Severus for the whole Evelyn issue.
"Aww look Lily, I think their about to kiss! How cute!"
Both Lily and Dominic looked at each other before laughing hysterically. They were doubled over and clutching their midsection. Their laughter was abruptly stopped as they were hit by pillows straight on the face. Soon pillows were flying all over the large room. It was every person for themselves. Cassandra smacked Dominic on his head with a large pillow that sent him falling to the floor where he grabbed a skinny, but easier to move, pillow and whacked her repeatedly before she cried uncle.
Lily was on a face off with Severus each with medium sized pillows each and scary grins on their faces. They charged at the same time, both pillows hit where they where aimed.
After a while they collapsed on the floor exhausted, they started talking about nothing in particular. Soon they started to drift to sleep, Cassandra on Severus' shoulder, Dominic's head on Cassandra's lap, and Lily on Severus' other side, her arms wrapped around his midsection her head on his chest. The four friends lay together on the floor, inseparable.
~*~
Magnus arrived at his home tired from all of the paperwork he had from the ministry. He went into the living room where he saw his wife sitting next to the fire reading a book. He joined her on the persian rug and wrapped his armes around her, she leaned back and rested her head on his chest.
"She's here."
"I know, Eros told me at work."
Isabel sighed and closed her eyes, "I'm getting tired of this Magnus, this is not the life I want for my children. We are using our son to betray his friend."
"But I'm doing this for our children, Isabel. I'm doing this so that they can have an easy future."
Isabel got up, anger was written all over her graceful face. "Don't lie to me Magnus, the only reason your going along with his plans is because you want power, you crave it. And he can easily give it to you, thats the only reason your there. If it weren't for the fact that Belinda Anguis is going to help us in figuring out what our daughter has, I would not have joined this stupid group."
Magnus got up and tried to hug his wife, she fidgeted at first but soon melted into his embrace. They held each other, the orange and red flames from the fire flickered and casted shadows all over the room.
"Isabel, I know you are worried about Evelyn, but you'll see, she will get better. If Belinda doesn't find a cure Severus will, thats why he's becoming her apprentice this summer. Do you think I trusted Belinda with something this important? I'm bidding my time until Severus can help Evelyn. And I know he can do it, my faith is in our son."
Magnus led Isabel upstairs and into their bedroom, they silently got into their sleeping clothes and slipped into bed. Isabel snuggled against Magnus' chest thinking about things that she didn't think sharing was something she wanted to do. Magnus wrapped his arms around her waist thinking about what she had said. They both ended up sleaping restlessly, thinking about the Dinner party they were holding as a disguise for the Death Eater meeting.
~_~
Tom arrived at his house tired with a sore neck. He had just spent hours at Gringotts opening a few bank accounts, one for Rosemary, Lily, and Petunia. He didn't know why, but he felt the need to make sure they had money in case something were to happen during the attack that he was planning on the ministry. Both Petunias and Rosemary's accounts were in Muggle currency and Lily's were in Wizarding. He wanted to make sure that the Ministry weren't able to take his money and house in case something went wrong. He set his briefcase down on his desk and opened it up. He took the papers and placed them inside the bottom drawer and locked it with a large brass key.
He saw something glowing from the inside of his shirt, he brought his necklace out and saw the eyes glowing brightly. He muttered a spell and walked up to his bedroom where he found Rosemary sitting on his bed in her nightgown.
She got up and wrapped her arms around his chest. Instinctively he did the same burying his face in her hair, taking in the scent of strawberry's that drove him crazy. He felt her taking off his robes slowly as well as his shirt. She was taking her time, memorizing his body in the process, soon he was completely nude. She then slid of her nightgown and laid on the bed looking like she needed something. Tom crawled on the bed over her body.
She took his face into hers and said in a small soft voice, "Make love to me Tom."
Her eyes were pleading and sad, wanting comfort. He responded by giving her a soft loving kiss. He kissed her body slowly, lovingly, wanting to become one with her in a way he was never able to do with any other woman he had been with. He felt her wrap her long legs around him, urging him to continue. He entered her enjoying her warmth, it took all of his self control to keep from letting himself go. He moved slowly, all the while she held on to him, afraid to let go. She buried her face against his shoulder, gasping as she felt her first climax take over her body. She moved her hips against his wanting for him to go faster. He pumped into her faster and faster, she threw her head back and screamed his name. He still kept going bringing her close to a second orgasm, she clung to his neck and whispered in his ear.
"Tell me you love me, I want to hear you say it."
He had said it to her only a few times before, each time it was hard because to him the word love didn't compare to what he felt for her. He felt her second orgasm as her inner walls closed around him, which sent him over the edge. Panting he kissed her with as much passion that he could possibly posses.
"I love you more than life itself, I live for you and I would die for you."
Rosemary kissed him with all the love she could give, he responded and felt himself getting aroused once more. They continued again with their lovemaking that lasted all night and into the next morning where the winter sun shone through the dark curtains and onto their tangled sweaty bodies.

(An: The following was written after countless hours of trying to find the deleted scenes on the Harry Potter DVD. I was so damn frustrated with it, I looked through both disks, I forgot about this fic. Sorry ^_^. But you'll be happy to know that I finally found it and was able to enjoy my widescreen DVD in peace. Hence the fact that I actually updated.)
~*~
Evelyn sat in her room the same size as her brothers, combing her raven hair. The party would be starting soon and people where already arriving. She was wearing robes the color of the moon when it was at its fullest, it was long sleeve and had a silver tassel around her waist. She then proceeded to add on a matching cloak made up of silvery material that had the family crest in the back. A silver falcon its graceful wings wrapped around itself and its beak held high in the air, its eyes black as night looking straight at you, where no matter where your standing they will follow your every movement.
She heard a knock on her door, "Enter."
Lily and Cassandra, whom Evelyn had taken a liking to after they spent the morning together, came in both wearing their own dressrobes and ready to go downstairs. Lily's were black with silver and light blue stars that shimmered in the light at the hem and the cuffs of the sleeves, she wore a black cloak and her hair was down and wore it straight. Cassandra's were violet with darker shades of purple in loopy designs around the skirt with a matching cloak, her hair was combed back in a long braid that had violet ribbon braided in.
Cassandra looked her over and clapped her hands together, "Evelyn you look great!"
Evelyn smiled, "Thank you, you both look great too."
They both thanked her and Lily spoke, "Your mother asked us to tell you that we have to go down soon. Do you want to go down together?"
"Sure, just let me get my necklace."
She opened a wooden jewelry box and took a silver necklace out, it had a crescent moon pendant that her father had given to her for Christmas. As they walked down the spiral staircase that lead to the dining room Evelyn clasped the necklace around her neck. She spotted her brother with Dominic over by a window where they were talking to a few of the guests' children that they seemed to know from school. There whereas many boys as there were girls in their little group.
Severus was wearing black robes and cloak and as Evelyn he also had the family crest on his cloak. He turned and smiled up at the girls as they reached the bottom. Evelyn smiled back but it wavered as she felt the beginnings of a headache. Her vision blurred but she shook it off as her brother swept her up into a hug.
"You look great."
Evelyn smiled at him and fixed the clasp of his cloak, "You look like dad in these robes."
Severus chuckled and looked over at Cassandra and Lily and said loudly, "I can't believe that Cassandra actually looks like a girl today."
Cassandra narrowed her eyes at him but eventually chose to ignore him, "Lucius, I see your parents made you come."
A boy older than Evelyn, with dark hair, gray eyes, and pointed features looked bored at Cassandra, "Yes, but everyone else is going to come, even some of your housemates."
"Who?" asked Lily.
Lucius Malfoy scrunched up his face in disgust, "Black, Potter, and Lupin, so naturally their little tag along is coming too."
Dominic groaned as they made their way to one of the many tables, "Great, just what I need, Black trying to play a prank on me and Severus. I thought the point of break is so that we don't have to put up with them."
Cassandra sighed as she sat down on the chair that Lucius held out for her, "I know their my housemates but sometimes I just want to grab Sirius and dump his head in a toilet."
Dominic shyly held out Evelyn's chair which she thanked him for sincerely since her vision was getting worse and needed to sit down.
Lily thanked Severus as he held her chair out for her and said calmly, "And then we could attach said toilet to his arse and put up a sign that says 'Flush me.'"
The table started laughing at the mental image that Lily had described. Narcissa Devlin a pretty girl with silver blond hair and blue eyes spoke up.
"When you two say things like that it makes me wonder if you were sorted properly."
The table agreed and Cassandra and Lily shrugged. Evelyn excused herself from the table after a few minutes telling her brother that she would be back soon. As soon as she was out of the Dinning room she ran back to her bedroom looking for her potion. She started seeing black spots in her line of vision, she felt dizzy as she felt her head throb in pain. She leaned against a wall trying to catch her breath, she found the doorknob to her bedroom and went in. On her dresser was a green vial she grabbed it as her knees gave out, she uncorked it and took its contents in one quick gulp.
She waited a moment before standing up and testing to see if it had worked. It had but she could still feel the throbbing from her temples. She went to her dresser and poured herself a glass of water from the pitcher. She then left her bedroom and made her way back to the party.

Lily laughed as Dominic tried to make an impression of their Potions Professor, Professor Wakefeel an old man who could barely stand on his own two feet. The fact that Dominic had a Spanish accent made it even funnier.
Lucius nudged at Lionel Parkinson, "Look Mr. Riddle showed up."
"Tom? Where?"
Lucius looked at her weirdly, "How do you know Mr. Riddle?"
Lily bit her lip, "He's my mothers friend."
Lily looked up to see Magnus greeting Tom with a firm handshake, she smiled and stood.
"Tom!"
He looked over surprised but grinned as Lily tackled him into a hug, "Lily what are you doing here?"
"Severus invited me to stay, I thought Mom would have told you?"
"She did but she didn't say who." He twirled her around in front of him, "You look beautiful. I like your robes, they suit you, they make you look more mature."
Lily smiled at him, "Thanks."
Tom smiled back at her, "Why don't you go sit down with your friends, Magnus said that dinner is about to start."
~*~
Severus watched with interest as Lily talked to Tom, he was the only one on their table that knows how they were connected and he had to make sure it looked like he didn't either. When he had agreed to do this for Belinda he had never thought that he would care about Lily, but now, only after a few months he cared about her. She was his best friend, her, Cassandra, and Dominic where the only true friends he had. But every time Lily confided in him he felt a pain in his heart because he would have to report it to Belinda. He hated doing so, he had even told his parents, but his father needed him to continue for Evelyn's sake.
He stood as Lily came back and held her chair out again, at that moment he heard a voice that made his temper rise.
"Who knew that slimy gits like Snape could act almost human."
Severus balled his fists as he turned around to face Sirius Black who had just arrived with James Potters family who were seated up front with the adults. He wore robes of dark red and his cloak was the same color. James was standing next to him with Remus and Peter, they all had mischievous grins on their faces as they already had some prank on their minds.
"If you don't mind Black, we are about to start dinner and its rude to act barbaric in someone else's house." Said Dominic who had stood as soon as he heard Sirius speak, his anger was noticeable since his accent thickened.
(AN: I have the same problem, normally I don't have an accent and people confuse me for a white girl, but when I'm pissed I sound like an immigrant who just crossed the US Border.)
James raised an eyebrow, "What's the matter Snape, you need LeFay to speak for you?"
"What's the matter Potter, need Black to drag you along on a short leash?"
James steeped up as did Severus but Lily got in their way, "Will you two stop and act civil and polite at least during dinner. If you still feel like acting like a bunch of idiots take it outside in the freezing cold."
With that she sat back down without needing anyone to pull her chair out and struck a conversation with Narcissa, at that moment everyone heard music playing in the air. James just shook his head, at her and looked back at Sirius.
"She's right."
Sirius rolled his eyes, "Whatever, we'll settle this after dinner."
Severus nodded, "Fine, but disrespect my home like this again and I will have your head on a platter."
Remus nudged Sirius and their little group went over to a free table, as Remus was pulling out his chair, he bumped into someone. She landed on her bottom her head down and her hair in her face. He went over to her and checked if she was O.K.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to bump in to you, can I help you up?"
He held out his hand which she took gratefully, "Thank you."
"Are you O. K?"
She smiled, which he returned, and nodded, but the smile didn't last as she saw her brother go over to Remus and punch him straight on the nose. Remus' head snapped to the side and he fumbled back. Dominic held Severus back as Lily and Cassandra rushed over to James and Sirius to keep them from going at it with Severus. The adults didn't notice as the food had already arrived, they were on the tables across the room chatting as they ate their meal.
Evelyn went over to Remus's side helping him up and glared back at her older brother who was fuming, "What was that for Severus, he apologized for knocking me down."
Severus chose to ignore her comment and shrugged Dominic off. He went over to Remus and grabbed his collar.
"You. Me. Rec. room. NOW!"
Remus pushed him off his eyes gleaming with anger. "Your on Snape."
Severus brushed past him and went through a wall that was actually one of the many entrances to the Rec. Room. Remus followed, followed by Evelyn and the rest of the table.
Inside Severus took off his cloak and the his robes leaving him in slacks and a button down black shirt. Remus did the same and threw them aside. Evelyn tried to talk her brother out of it.
"Severus stop, please there's no point to it."
"No one touches you without facing me." He looked over to Dominic and asked him to make sure no one interfered. He nodded as Severus walked toward Remus, Remus met him with a punch. Punches were traded as they tried to beat the other bloody. Lily and Cassandra tried to stop them but were stopped by Dominic who shook his head. Evelyn started yelling at them to stop and screamed as Severus was knocked to the floor. He quickly got up and tackled Remus. Evelyn tried to go over to them but was held back by Dominic who held her from her waist.
"Evelyn just let him get it out of his system."
"Dominic let me go! Their going to kill each other!"
With the frustration of her brother fighting she felt the potion wear off, she held her head in both hands and leaned against Dominic. Her head throbbed in pain and she felt a cold chill run through her body. She gasped as the pain consumed her senses, she couldn't see, she couldn't hear, and she couldn't feel as Dominic shook her to get her attention. She let out a choked whimper that made Dominic think he was holding her to tightly and let her go. That, of course was a mistake, as soon as he did her knees gave out and she collapsed on the floor. Dominic caught her head before it hit the wood.
Dominic shook her gently trying to wake her up, Lily and Cassandra were at his side asking if she was O.K. Lily then went over to the still going fight and went right in between them.
"If you two can stop for a moment, I can tell you that Evelyn just passed out!"
Severus's eyes widened as did Remus', Severus turned to see his sisters pale form being held by Dominic. He rushed to her side and touched her forehead and felt her body temperature rising to above normal. He himself was badly bruised and in pain but nevertheless he scooped her up ignoring the sharp pain at his side. He glared at Remus as he passed him on his way to the wall where he instructed Dominic who was next to him to turn the antique candle holder to the right. He did and the wall opened up to show a wooden stair case. Severus carried his sister up the stairs and out of sight followed by Dominic who shot a deadly glare at Remus before he disappeared.
Lily was about to go after them when James stopped her, "Why do you insist on associate yourself with such pricks Lily?"
He looked sincere about his question, this made Lily frown with agitation. "I can say the same about you James."
He was about to respond when she raised a hand to silence him, "Tend to your friend James, and I shall tend to mine."
With that she left up the stairs closely followed by Cassandra who closed the wall behind her. James shook his head and went over to Remus who was as bruised as Severus had been before he had left. He saw that the other Slytherins were going back to the dinner party. Peter was trying to help Remus clean his wound above his eye with a handkerchief, but Remus just brushed him off and grabbed his robes and cloak.
"Come on lets go back to dinner." His robes were loose around his shoulders and he held his cloak in his hands, he refused to look at his friends as he went through the wall and back into dinning room.

AN: I wish to apoligise for the last chapter, you see I was going to have a fencing sceene not a sword fighting sceene, there is a big differance, and when I changed my mind I forgot to go back and fix it, sorry to those who enjoy the sport. I will be rewriting it when I finish the fic. I'm going to go back and Revamp everything, as in every chapter not just the last one, before I start the next part. There are to many typos and spelling errors to fix but nothing major will be changed.
Vegeta: ~Grumbles~dumbass.
DPF: ~Narrows eyes at him~ Shut up unless you want me to wite a slash fic with you and Goku doing sweaty hot monkey love......wait I'll do that anyway!!
Vegeta: ~eyes widen like dinner plates~ You wouldn't actually do that would you?
DPF:Maybe :::Insert evil grin here::: ~looks around......POUNCE!!!~
GIR: YAY! I'm in charge of thanking the reviewer people. ~plays a techno CD and starts raving.
DPF: Vegeta remind me not to let GIR be in charge of anything.
Vegeta: mphftffffpmmmmrrrrgggrrr
DPF: Shush I need to thank my reviewers before getting some coffee.
Ahem
Isys I hope that after reading all of the chapters that you like it and like Tom more in the process.
kasey here ya GO!!
dedbabydoll I liked your review, I like my version of Tom Riddle since I doubt his personality will be explained much in the next books. Thanks ^_^
angel-eyes Dont worry Belinda will get whats coming to her, though I doubt that anyone will guess what I'm going to do to her.....hehehe.
madi Tom is the smartest man when it comes to everything but when it comes to someone other than Rosemary Seduce him he's oblivious. Not Everyone knows, just the Death Eaters, Tom, and Severus. Lily will find out when she does and you have to just wait patiently ^_^
someone I'm sorry if I offended you but as you probably already read I will fix it when I finish the story.
tee Vampire Piggies are waaaaay cuter than their cow bretherin, and they squeek when they feed.
Lucky aka Jessica-Canada/OGM awww I wanna see spider man! I haven't been able to since I've been sick. I saw star wars though Anikin is so hot.
Electra your reading my fic slowly aren't you?Well either way I got the idea from one of my many odd dreams. Hehehe I love my dialogue too I like to make Tom sound cool. By the time you read this you'll already know that Dilland is dead. So sad but the show must go on.
Nagini the fact that the idea for that plot crossed my mind is scary.
green smurf we need to decide wheere we will have our grand empire headquarters where we shall rule with an iron fist!!! hopefully somewhere nice and cold.
LiLkRiSsY ~bows~ thank you ~wipes away a tear~ so kind.
Angel Of Doom sorry but to some of ur ?'s I can't anwser at the moment without giving the plot away. Its scary but you and a few other people read my mind on the whole Lily staying at Severus and Tom seeing her there.
Darkfire75 awww your review is giving me an ego boost the size of a small country.
buttermallow your going to have to wait and see my Tom at the point where he is no longer human and kills Lily. Its going to be so sad.
Mickiee thanks I've never heard that word before sounds shibby though.
katalina o'riley I think we all wish to be in Rosemary's shoes.
Renai I wish their where more Tom Riddle stories it would make everything cool in our little world.
skitzo my experiance on that day was what inspired me to write that, so I hold no gruges.....the fact that I was choking on a penut the day I wrote it is sad....
MercuryRed If you like happy endings then I suggest that you not read the last few chapters ^_^ just a suggestion.
maharahja-li-vincent I love that song Chester has such a pretty voice.
Lily thanks for the review I love my story and I love my computer.
Kilohana I can blink too! I like angst its shibby. I read one of ur fics and left a review. I'd read the rest but I need coffee so I'll do it tomorrow after I post this. I like to thank my reviewers because they took the time to write something down to make me feel better. I love Sirius I mean I have a few pics that I drew of him...... um hehehe nevermind........ anyway he will be nicer and have more scenes towards the end of this fic and he's VERY important in the next one.
Now its about two in the morning while I'm writing this so I need cafine and some snacks and I have to return Vegeta to his section. I've turned into an insomniac so I'll be up till three and wake up at five to take care of the demon spawn, my baby bro.
I think its cuz of my medicine for my migraines, it has cafine. I get them at the worst time and I've passed out in public before. It sucks cuz the medicine doesn't work anymore. I have one at the moment but not much I can do so me and GIR are going to go get some Lucky Charms and some coffee.
GIR: YUM MARCHMALLOWS!!!!
