Chapter 4: Severus talks with Draco

Early in the morning came far too early for Draco he stretched and looked over to see his sister sound asleep, and for the first time in days he felt relief to know that his sister would finally be free of the obligations to be the hero of the wizarding world. Draco sighed and thought "frankly I do not know how she handled it for as long as she did I mean to do it for 5 years I could not do it for 5 minutes, but I guess I am lucky that I am not her she is the perfect sister and I do hope that she will get her eventual happiness she deserves it."

Draco shook himself from his thoughts and got out of bed careful to not wake his sister. Draco quickly got dressed and exited the room thinking "I am going to go and get some food I am a 15 year old boy I am lucky I do anything more than eat food he thought laughingly."

Draco had just entered the great hall and noticed that it was already 10:15 AM and knew already that if the students were sent home that he and Hailey were now officially stranded at Hogwarts, but at the moment that was as far from his worries as it could be. He thought that his sister and him could be a family even if Snape did not want them with him. As Draco sat down to get some food a large platter of bacon, eggs, sausage, grits, kippers, hash browns and toast and cereal and milk that had appeared in front of him Severus Snape came rushing into the great hall concerned that his son had been abducted.

When Severus saw Draco eating he sighed in relief thinking "that boy is a one track mind it is either food or quidditch, but I am beginning to think that his sister ranks higher than I thought and I want to know when they knew about each other and since Hailey is dead to the world with exhaustion I will talk to Draco about it."

Snape walked up to Draco clearing his throat when he drew close enough for Draco to hear and said "Draco I want to talk to you about a few things concerning you and your sister." Draco nodded and said "alright Professor Snape what do you want to know about us?" Snape noticed that his son did not call him dad, daddy or father but Professor Snape he guessed that had to do with the fact that for most of his son's life he had been a godfather to him and not a father to him but put it away for the time being.

Severus Snape cleared his throat and said "first of all how long have you and your sister known that you are brother and sister?"

Draco cleared his throat and said "well since the we met on the train coming here in our 1st year, but it took us till the end of the year for us to get the information but finally Luscious and Narcissa Malfoy (Draco broke up slightly at their names) told us that we're brother and sister. They said they did not want us to hate each other since she was in Gryffindor and I was in Slytherin."

Severus nodded and said "so since your first year. Can you explain to me then why the two of saw fit to fight with each other as if you both hated the others guts for the last 4 years?"

Draco laughed and said "I should think that was obvious Professor. We did it because she is a Gryffindor and I am a Slytherin they do not like each other purely out of principle so we could not be showing that we got along with each other in front of everybody, but once we were alone we were siblings to each other. I protected her as best I could and I will continue to do so."

Severus smiled and nodded at this saying "good Draco. I want you to know that your sister and you will be coming to live with me in the state of Washington in the US in a town called Forks it is a muggle town, but I will be teaching both you and your sister the next year's curriculum during the summer."

Draco smiled and nodded and said "so we will not be returning to Hogwarts next year?"

Severus sighed and said "well you can if you wish but your sister is not going to be permitted to return to Hogwarts…" at that Draco jumped to his feet and yelled out "WHY THE FUCK IS SHE NOT BEING ALLOWED TO RETURN THIS IS HAILEY'S FUCKIN HOME TO!" Severus sighed and said "let me finish Draco. Due to Fudge deciding that she is too dangerous to the wizarding world, but if you wish to return I can make arrangements for you to return to Hogwarts in the fall." Draco glared at his dad and said "no I am not returning if my sister cannot come back then by God I will not come back either."

Severus smiled and said "you really love your sister don't you?"

Draco looked at him for a minute and said "don't you love her to?"

Severus said "don't answer a question with a question, and yes I do love your sister now will you please answer my question?"

Draco nodded and said "yes I love her to, but if you ever tell her I said that I will hex you into next week it is not part of our relationship I bust her chops and she busts my chops (usually much harder and better."

Severus started laughing at the statement from his son remembering that was the way Lily was when they were growing up and thankful that his daughter took after her mother so much more than she might yet realize. Severus cleared his throat and said "Draco I am going to go and check on your sister we will be remaining at Hogwarts for another day or so, but I want you to go and get your stuff packed and moved down to the room that you share with your sister ok."

Draco nodded and said "that will take most of the day for me to get that all ready and packed."

Severus smiled and said "well I guess you better get started on it he said" as Draco rose from the bench and made his way to the Slytherin common room.

After Draco left Severus rose from his seat and made his way down to see how his daughter was doing and if she was awake yet.
