A/N: thanks to all my readers and reviewers! :)
Remus Lupin had just sat down to enjoy his tea, with absolutely no interruptions yet again, when the door burst open and said object of his thoughts stalked in the room.
"Why did you lie to me, Remus? My mum doesn't love me, she never did, she only loved that slimy bat Snape!" Harry shouted, his face red and blotched. Remus stood stiffly in his seat, teacup halfway to his lips. Remus let out a slow breath and wondered what he had done to deserve this chore of calming down Harry while Severus was perfectly capable of handling this dispute himself. As if compelled by thought, Severus glided into the room, dark eyes locked on Harry.
"Mr. Potter, I think you owe Lily an apology."
"I will not apologize, Professor!" Harry said darkly as his glare hotly set on Snape's face. After a long moment, Harry stormed out of the room under the strong gaze of Severus and Remus. Remus then turned sharply towards Severus. Upon that action, Severus narrowed his eyes and abruptly left the room to go somewhere in the castle to cool off, he knew he would curse someone if they got into his way. This simply wasn't going the way he imagined. He softly chuckled to himself as he entered his office, that he did not imagine being married to Lily after her death.
A few weeks later, Severus had regained his cool composure and Lily had come to terms with Harry's dislike of her husband. She knew she could not expect her husband and son to accept each other's role in their lives in such a short period of time, but damned if Cissa didn't have a real family by the time she arrived to the world. Severus still insisted the child would be a son, but Lily knew better; after all, she was carrying the child.
"Severus, do you need anything? I am going to Hogsmeade to get a few things. Do you need anything from the Apothecary while I am there?"
"Lily, you shouldn--"
"Severus, I've been stuck in here for days! I want to get out and see the world." Lily said, her green eyes sparkling dangerously. Severus took a sharp breath and set his lips in a thin line, looking over his wife with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Very well, but you had better keep the hood up on your robes at all times. We do not want any Death Eaters knowing the fact you are alive until the time is proper." Severus said sharply as he handed Lily a deep purple robe. Lily took it resignedly and put it on. The aguement was settled. Lily was going to Hogsmeade.
Severus decided to leave the woman alone, she was an independent spirit, that was for certain. She wouldn't have liked it if he had followed her to Hogsmeade and back. Perhaps he was just being overly protective...
Lily was having a glorious time in Hogsmeade, she had bought Severus a new book to thank him, and several things for the baby, and a new Quidditch book for Harry, she knew he would love it. Lily hoped that Harry would just come round to his senses by the time Cissa was born, and quickly.
A/n: sorry this chappy is short, but I am trying to get this fic done by the end of spring break.. *crosses fingers* so I can start some more I have on the back burner for the WIKTT challenge.
