Normal disclaimers apply I don't own harry potter and my English Sucks.
I stood shaking. Why was he like this when he had been so kind and caring yesterday. Briefly I allowed my mind to wonder. The way he smiled. The way he smelt. "Your gonna get it mudblood." I felt the colour drain put of my face everybody else left. oh God was all I could think. Malfoy stood in front of me, eyes gleaming. "You know Mudblood. I might like to ride you. Your mum was a dynamo for a muggle before dad killed her." Tears where threating to spill over my eyes, I stood trembling. "DRACO LEAVE NOW. Miss granger my office." Severus stood in front of Malfoy rage on his face. Malfoy whitened. It was at that moment I wanted to forgive Severus for being so mean to me in class and just hug him. "My office miss granger." Once I arrived in the office I heard him yelling at Malfoy. "what the hell where you thinking you stupid boy. If it was anyone else who heard you, you would have been expelled. REMEMBER YOUR PLACE." To say I was shocked was a n understatement what the hell was going on. Does that mean Malfoy was actually there when mum died, was Severus. I stepped back against the wall. I must of knocked something because I heard a crash behind me. Severus must of heard "leave now Malfoy." His tone was threating and to say I was scared when I heard the classroom door close. I then heard what sounded like a tump. After a few minutes I decided to see what was going on, and nothing will ever let me forget. Severus Snape sat on the floor crying. My heart yearned out of him. "Professor." He didn't seem to notice me at first then his head snapped up. His eye's were full of tears. "I'm sorry." I suddenly found I couldn't stop myself I was on the floor hugging him as if my life depended on it. "His my godson you know." "Who." "Draco, I was supposed to protect him I was supposed to stop him becoming like me." "It's not your fault he turned out like this professor. Death eaters are his family. It's in there nature." "no Not him I was supposed to protect him." "It's not your fault." "Yes it is. I've done thing's you couldn't imagine Hermione I was there when your parent's were killed. I didn't know who they where but I didn't stop them. I can never be forgiven for something's I have done but I will stop my godson for making the same mistakes" Before I knew what I was doing I ran out the room . While running through the halls all I could think was HE KillED MY PARENTS. Part of me knew he didn't actually killed them but he didn't save them either.
The next few day's flew by I withdrew into myself and avoided Severus at all cost. "Herm wait up." "Hey Ginny." "Hey how you feeling. I want an honest answer not ok." "I feel like crap Gin but I'll get over it. I was just wondering if you would come to my parent's funeral this afternoon. I meant to ask you earlier but I've had stuff on my mind." Ginny flung herself on me. "of course I will Herm. What time are we going?" "At half four Mcgonagall is going to meet us in the entrance way then we're to go to Hogsmade before getting the night bus to Epton." By Half four I was near tears yet again the journey to the funeral was a nightmare long and bumpy. "Miss Granger were here." "What oh yeah. Thanks ernie." As I jumped of the bus I had relations hugging me asking if I was all right surrounded me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw someone I forgot about. "Jenny." Tears rolled down my eye's how could I be so selfish how come I never asked about my own sister. Over the last few week I couldn't even think to se if my sister was alive. What had she been feeling why wasn't she at home that night. "mione." She hugged me with full force not letting me go. "Oh mione It was so horrible." My Heart stopped was she there. OH my god, she was there. "Are you going to leave straight away mione. Aunt ju say's you have to go back do you mione." "Oh sweety." Her bright blue eye's looked up at me, pleading me to do something. "Baby you've got to stay with auntie ju ok." She's only five for fuck sake. "is that man coming again." "no baby he won't be back for you. I won't let him." "but he saved me." "who, who saved you." " I Don't know but he said he knew you. He said that he was going to protect you with his life he promised. He said he'll come and see me again at the funeral." Jenny burst into tears and all I could do was hold her. My aunt julie came over and ushered us to the front of the church Ginny sat by me while Mcgonagall stayed at the back of the church. Half way through the Minster calls me to go up. That's when I saw him stood silent in the far back of the church. Most people would not notice him lurking in the shadows. It must have been him who saved Jenny. So I change my speech. " When I first heard that my parents was dead, I wanted to hurt somebody. My Parents where the best people anybody could know and will be missed sorley. But they wouldn't want us to grieve forever. My sister is alive and well and whoever saved her from the same fate as my parents. I owe you everything and I forgive you, and owe you more than words could say. I just wish that I could make my parents proud. " I saw a single tear escape his eye's. It was him. I knew he saved Jenny.
