Chapter 3

"Come in." Dumbledore called. The door opened and in came Alex shortly followed by Severus. "Ah there now that you're both here I can begin."

Alex and Severus took the two worn seats in front of the always cluttered desk. "Alexandra has informed you of the port key being set up on Friday?"

"Yes Albus."

"Very good." Albus smiled. "Now, I wanted to talk to you about this summer. Some of the members of the Order are worried about surviving members of the Death Eaters trying to find Harry."

"What are you suggesting we do Albus?" Snape asked coldly.

"Most everything has been taken care Severus. However I want you continue his Occulemncy lessons, at least once a week."

"Is that all?" Snape asked quickly.

"Yes, that's all."

"Very well Headmaster. Enjoy your summer holidays." Snape said politely.

"Same to you Severus, I'll hope to see you all at Hogsmead." Albus smiled brightly.

"Hopefully we will Albus.' Alex smiled, giving him a hug.

"Do take care dear. Enjoy your holidays." Severus and Alex left the room in silence. And stayed that way until reaching Severus' office.

"Are you going to be cold to him all summer?" Alex asked, seating herself on the black leather couch.

"I'd hardly say that I was being 'cold'." Severus said, going into his storeroom and returning with a roll of parchment.

"No, saying that you were cold would imply that you spoke to him, you just asked him 'What' and left it at that. You didn't even let him come in!"

"I was a little angry love. If you can remember what we were doing before he interrupted?"

"Well if that's all you're angry about." Alex finished by pulling him down onto the couch with her.

"Will this be how summer goes? He knocks on the door and everything goes on hold?"

"Don't worry Sev. I've got plenty of attention to go around." Alex grinned, giving him a kiss. "Now lets go back to our chambers, have dinner WITH Harry and than I will give you my undivided attention."

That's all for now, thanks for the reviews.
