Chapter 12
Severus rounded on Sirius, and drew his wand. "It seems my decision to try to make amends with you was a mistake. You will pay for your words and your past actions."
"Severus he is without a wand. This can not be a fair fight!" Remus shouted.
"Who's fault is that Remus, surely it is not mine. The mangy mutt is about to get a taste of his own medicine." Severus said rounding on Sirius.
All three of them came to a halt as the ear splitting scream pierced the air. "Harry," was the one word between all of them as they ran into the room, their petty argument forgotten for now.
Severus and Sirius both ran to the bed trying to be the first to get to Harry. Sirius beat him there, and pulled Harry from the covers of the bed. Harry sat shaking, his eyes still closed trapped in his dream. "Nooooo" he screamed again and Sirius pulled him tight in a hug.
What happened next amazed them all, as Harry began to scream and try to pull away from his godfather. "Daddy Noooo, please do not hurt him, take me instead!"
Severus pulled Harry from Sirius' arms and pulled him close. "Harry... son wake up" Severus said gently rubbing the tears off Harry's face. Harry awoke to see three very worried faces staring back at him.
"Harry are you alright? Do you want to talk about it?" Remus asked reaching out to ruffle Harry's hair.
Harry shrank back, burying himself further into the folds of his father's robes. He did not look up again, or he would have seen the hurt look on Sirius' face. "I am just tired and want to go back to sleep. Sorry Sirius I do love you, but I am tired. Will you come tomorrow maybe?" Sirius shook his head, and Remus and he got up to leave. With a quick glance at Severus both of them closed the door behind them.
"Harry" Do you wish to talk about it?" Severus asked pulling Harry's chin up to meet his gaze. Harry shook his head and wiped the tears from his eyes. He would keep this from happening, he had to. He could not lose another parent, not when he had just found him.
Severus sighed but relented, and tucked Harry back under the covers. "I will leave you and let you get some more sleep" he said as he tried to get up from the bed. When he tried he saw Harry had a firm grasp on his robes, and would not let go. Severus looked down at the pleading eyes which said no words and understood. He scooted Harry over on the bed, and Harry placed his head on his father's chest. There he fell fast asleep feeling protected, as if nothing could get to him as long as his father was there. For the first time in a long time, Harry fell asleep feeling safe.
Severus watched as his son drifted back into the dreamworld. His own mind drifting off into memories. He was lying in bed with Lily wrapping his arms around her, and smiling as her hair fell over her face while she slept. He turned to kiss her face, but he heard something coming near the room. Grabbing his wand from under the pillow, he pointed it at whatever was coming through the door towards him. When he finally could take the waiting no longer he silently called out luminos and at the end of his wand was none other than Harry.
"Harry, Why are you out of bed? Did you have a bad dream?"
"No, Wants to sleep with you daddy." Harry said tottering up to the bed and climbing in.
This awoke Lily, who rolled over and came face to face with her son. "Not that I do not love having you to wake up to Harry, but you are a big boy now and should sleep in your own bed."
Harry being merely a year old did not care about being a big boy. "Daddy says I can," Harry said holding onto his father tightly.
"Severus Snape you will spoil him rotten. He will never learn to sleep by himself." Lily said trying to look stern.
"Yes, but why not let him sleep here just for tonight. I for one do not mind, and I know you despite yourself do not either."
Lily threw up her hands and smiled at the two. "How can I say no to the both of you. Just make him go to sleep."
Severus curled up cradling his son, as Harry wrapped his arm around his father. "Night daddy," he said and then he was asleep. Severus wandered back from his dream and looked down at his son. "Goodnight Harry" he said before he himself fell into a peaceful slumber.
