Merry Christmas Eve… Eve… heh heh two more nights!
Chapter 41
"So, what do you think we'll do over Summer break?" Alex asked, handing him a piece of bread.
"I've had a few thoughts on the matter."
"Well how would you feel about another person with us this summer?"
His face suddenly paled. "Wh… are you… I mean." Alex couldn't understand him at first, then her expression filled with realization.
"Oh, no no, not like that Sev." She noticed how he suddenly relaxed. "I was just wondering if you'd mind if Harry spent summer break with me. Now before you get all snarky about this, please remember he is my nephew and his other Aunt and her family must be pretty bad if he wants to spend his break with an almost stranger and Hogwarts most hated professor."
"And you want to take him for the summer?"
"Well… he's the only family I've got left that hasn't excommunicated me." Alex said with a shrug.
"Oh bloody hell, don't start in with the guilt. I f you want to take care of the boy that's fine but don't expect me to be civil with the boy if he gets in my way.
"Well of course, I wouldn't expect that from you." Alex grinned.
"Joke all you like but make sure that he knows the rules if he is to live in my home."
"Are we living together now?"
"You have some where else to stay?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.
"No where else I'd rather be." She smiled, leaning over and giving him a kiss.
"Good to know." He said, a smirk slowly creeping on to his face.
They enjoyed the rest of the meal then grabbed the chess pond and were transported back to their chambers. Where they enjoyed the rest of the evening there.
