Harry backed away from the vampire slowly. He was fairly sure now that Spike was crazy.

"What did you say?"

"I suggested to shag." Spike looked at the stunned boy. "What? I haven't had sex for a long time. I would have suggested to anyone. You just happened to be closer than others."

"I'm....I'm..." Harry muttered.

"Listen, I was just kidding ok? I don't want to deflower you." At this, the boy turned bright red.

"What did you say? I don't need to be deflowered."

"Please, you scream virgin 50 miles from you."

"I...I..." Harry was really confused. Here he was standing in the corridor and talking about his sex life with a vampire who was some sort of ghost just a minute ago.

"And you could at last ask to a date that cute red-head who has been trying to get your attention for ages."

"Red-head? You are taking about Ginny?"

"Yes, the girl has been giving all the signs that she likes you. Are you blind?"

"No, she wasn't."

Spike just smirked started walking away.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"I need to smoke. By the way, good luck with being deflowered." Harry thanked any gods that were listening that no one heard this conversation. Especially Ron. He could already imagine what his best friend would do to him if Harry would even touch his baby sister. Having a sister of his own the Boy-Who-Lived understood Ron perfectly well. He was very happy that Dawn didn't have a boyfriend. Where was his sister? Harry cursed his stupidity. He had forgotten about Marauders map.

Sometimes he wondered where his head was. Harry rushed into the common room and was very surprised to find his sister here. She was curled up in one of the armchairs and was apparently waiting for him.

"Where were you? I've been looking for you all over."

The sleepy girl looked at him."Harry, sorry, I lost track of the time." "Sorry? I have just had the most disturbing conversation with that friend of yours Spike." Harry tried to forget the horrible moment.

"I am really sorry, Harry." He noticed that she was near tears.

"Hey, it's ok. Don't cry Dawnie." He hugged her. "I'm not that angry."

"Why is it so hard?"

"What is hard?"

"Everything. I just have this wonderful feeling inside of me but it's not enough, you know. I always thought that it's enough to love and everything would be ok but it's not. And it hurts Harry, it hurts so bad. Sometimes I just wish I could forget everything." She cried into his shoulder as Harry remembered Spike saying something about Dawn being in love with someone. Blood boiled in his veins as he thought that some jerk hurt his sister.

"You can't forget everything. Then you would forget me, our parents, our friends. Do you want that?" Dawn shook her head. She didn't want that. She wanted to know everything but it hurt because this evening girl understood that she couldn't be with Severus. At least not now. His hurt face stood before her. Those black eyes full of hate and betrayal. She just cried into her brothers shoulder trying to forget that the love of her life despised her. Deeply in her heart she knew that everything would be much easier if Snape was younger. Dawn was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice a stream of green light coming from her.

Severus Snape woke up feeling really good. It has been ages since he had such a good sleep. Yawning he went into the bathroom and screamed. Here, in the damned mirror was the image of himself 15 years ago. He slowly touched his face. Gone were the wrinkles around his eyes, his skin was smoother. Severus knew very well that he hadn't drink the de-aging potion.

"You look better, you know. "

"Shut up." The potions master stormed out of his rooms cursing the mirror and everyone. Lucky for him none of the students were up yet so they hadn't seen him in his night gown. He came into the infirmary and almost bumped into Madam Pomfrey. "Fix it." He hissed at the stunned woman.

"Severus is that you?"

"Yes, now fix it." Pomfrey murmured something about him being impolite and began looking for the thing that was causing it. Half an hour later she found an answer.

"Well?"

"There is nothing wrong with you. I can't detect any potion or spell you just got younger."

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I JUST GOT YOUNGER!!!!"

"Now, now Severus there is no need scream. I am sure you will get used to it. After all, many people would give their life for being young again." Severus Snape just humphed and was gone in a second.

"What a horrible character."

Everything was strange this day. It seemed that the whole world was friendly to Dawn. Maybe it was the spirit of Haloween, or maybe the fact that today it seemed that all her troubled were gone but the girl was really happy. And there were no classes today. The day was perfect. All day Dawn was preparing for the dance so now she was going to great hall in all her glory.

"Dawn."

Startled, she turned around.

"Dawn, in here." The voice was coming from behind a statue. Being very nosy the young Potter couldn't help herself but look who it was. The voice seemed strangely familiar. Behind a statue was standing a young man dressed in black. The black eyes and greasy hair just screamed Severus Snape wannabe.

"Do I know you?"

"I just know you have something to do with this Dawn."

"To do with what? Who are you?"

"Listen, I don't want to play games, just tell me what you did." The man took her hands.

"Please, I need to know."

"Ok mister. I don't know you, and I REALLY don't want to. I haven't done anything to you so I am leaving." The look in his eyes reminded her of Severus, and then he kissed her. Oh, this was Severus. Only he could kiss like that. Dawn moaned and kissed him back.

"Dawnie?"

She knew that voice but didn't want to leave those soft lips.

"Dawn Summers get your tongue out of his mouth."

"Buffy?"
