Hogsmeade. Three Broomsticks. The inn was often warm, crowded, and a bit smokey, but clean and welcoming.
The Three Broomsticks was owned and operated by Madam Rosmerta. Harry watches Hermione drink three glasses of Butterbeer with ginger for herself.
As for food, Hermione ordered Fish and Chips, Cornish Pasties with Garden Salad and Smoked Turkey Leg served with Wedge Fries.
Harry loosen his tie a bit as he watches Hermione eat all this food all by herself. Harry spoke.
"I can't control what you eat because you carry another life inside you but I admit there is a lot of food you are eating today. I'm pretty sure.. you like some chocolate milk".
"That's a brilliant idea Harry. Order that for me. A big glass of chocolate milk".
Harry called out the waiter. The waiter walked to their table. "Can you urmm.. get the Minister a big glass of chocolate milk".
"We don't have that in here Mr. Potter. As for the Minister's request we will try to look for it". The waiter then walked to the counter.
Couple of minutes later, the same waiter walked back to their table with chocolate milk in his hand. The waiter laid it on the table.
"For you Minister". said the waiter.
Harry was amazed. "I cannot believe how you did that but thank you".
"Anything for Mr. Potter and the Minister request". the waiter smiled. "Is there anything I could help Mr. Potter, Minister?"
"Urm.. no. We're done here". the waiter nods, turns his feet and walks to another table.
Hermione reaches for the glass of chocolate milk and drinks it. Harry and Hermione are sharing the food, he picks the fork and starts to poke the chips and eat it.
"Wonder why. We used to sit in here with Ron when he saw Ginny snogging Dean".
"Obviously!" Hermione snickering. "Then I say if Ron sees me snogging with Snape and Ron's face is completely disgusting. You know how old Snape was at that time?"
"That you called him husband?" said Harry. Hermione nods. "I don't know. Late thirties, almost forty?"
Hermione drains the glass, then burps. "Exactly. I'd just think about how I can end my life with our potion master teacher. I still don't get why".
"Simple. Snape's obsessed with you and you sort off pity on his pathetic life. Which mean.. you both was in love one another without you two realize it happen".
Harry snapped his finger, made Hermione jolt a bit.
"Just like that Hermione. You even keep your pregnancy until everything is spilled over. I was mad at you at first because you carried Snape's child. A teacher who is my worst enemy but for the sake of the wizardry world.. I need you there with me. Without you or Ron.. I'm nothing but Harry nerd Potter".
Hermione reached Harry's hand, and they embraced each other's company. Harry patted her hand, smile.
"Our story ends here, Hermione. This future now belongs to our children which I say.. he will not return. Not anymore".
Moments later. Castle. Harry and Hermione were laughing about something, Hermione spotted Filch chasing Susannah around the castle. The girl was laughing at Filch until they disappeared around the corner.
Hermione looked confused. "Did you see that Harry? Did you see Filch was chasing my daughter or was it just me.."
"I've seen it". Both Harry and Hermione could hear Susannah's echoes of laughter out of nowhere.
Hermione and Harry then saw Susannah again who was running through the corridor. Harry held his laughter as he saw Filch was about to lose his own breath while chasing this energetic girl.
Hermione wants to stop her daughter by joining them, Harry stops her. "You pregnant Mione".
"But I can't let Filch chase her like that. What a Filch problem with Susannah that I didn't know. Oh Merlin!"
"What!?"
"Snape kept the secret from me from where I just found out Malfoy and Susannah. And now this.. and I know what Snape knows that I don't know".
"What!?" Harry was confused with Hermione's words. She repeatedly and repeat the word until he look dumb for that. What exactly did Hermione want to say? "Mione, I don't understand what you're saying!"
"Oh you will know what I am saying".
Harry watches Hermione walking fast inside the castle. And then Harry corner eyes saw Teddy Lupin walk through the corner. Harry called him out. "Where are you headed, Teddy?"
"I was about to say why you are here but.. well if that is you ask I am going to the Hospital Wing. I've been told Henry is awake".
Harry nods and smiles. "He is. Let's go then. We both are family. How is your class?"
"Well I just got back from Herbology".
"Ah! Neville (Harry slapped his forehead) how I forgot. You go without me Ted. I like to see your Professor Longbottom. It's been a year since. You go".
"Are you staying in Hogwarts Uncle Harry?"
Harry bit his lips, said. "Not really Ted. You know your Aunt Ginny will bite my hand if she finds out I'm staying in Hogwarts".
"Sounds like her. Well I'll see you around then Uncle Harry".
"You too Ted".
Hermione swung the door open searching for Snape inside instead he wasn't there in his office.
Where can he go in this situation where she needs him?
"I can't believe this!"
"Mrs Snape?" Hermione jumped, turning behind. It was McGonagall who made her jump. "What are you doing peering inside your husband's office? If you were looking for him, I should tell you he's gone".
Hermione patted her chest, said. "Gone? where?"
"I don't know. I didn't catch him, only what I see is half of his leg left behind as he enters the fireplace and is gone".
"Alright. Professor if you can help me".
"What is it Mrs Snape".
There is silence. Hermione spoke back. "I want you to tell me exactly what happened around here and all my children doing, that the potion teacher himself hid this secret from me".
"Very well Mrs Snape. Which part do you like to know first".
London. Same day. Snape entered the building where Mr. Davies was waiting for him in the lobby. Snape hurried his feet as he saw Mr. Davies, he stopped.
"I'm sorry that I had to call you like this Mr. Snape".
"You say she wants to see me. Urgently".
"Well yes. She is. You know where her room was. I have to meet the clients outside, so.. you all alone if there is anything you need my help or anything just text me Mr. Snape".
Snape nodded and watched Mr. Davies leaving the building. Snape gets inside the elevator and pushes the button. As the door closed, he sighs and leaning on the wall.
Lucky for Snape he brought everything he needed to include this urgent situation.
He was wearing a winter thick vest slim fit, revealing he's the most gorgeous man in the muggle and magical world.
The elevator stopped at thirty floors where Raphael's office was standing. "Oh Mr. Snape".
"Hello Miss Barb. Congratulations on your engagement".
"Thank you Mr. Snape. Well, she's waiting for you inside. I feel something is wrong with her". said Barb, the editor. She whispers. "I was inside with her for a while. She seems to have lost her mind".
Snape smirking with nod. "Thank you for your observation about Miss Raphael, Miss Barb". Snape about to walk but stop. "Oh could you please ask someone. I was kinda thirsty while running in here, chocolate milk.. I prefer in ice that would be great".
"Yes sure I ask that for you Mr. Snape".
"Thank you". he smiled.
Snape knocked at the door, and Raphael didn't answer him. Snape then twisted the knob and peered inside it. There she was,... muttering all by herself.
"You request my presence Miss Raphael?" as Snape enters.
She looks up and smiles. "Yes". Snape takes a seat, she pushes the chair and begins circling around him. "You know why you hear Mr. Snape?" she asked.
"I don't. But clearly you seem.. drunk Miss Raphael".
"Sabine". Snape jumped as she whispered in his ears. "Are you scared of me Mr. Snape?"
He shook his head no. "I wasn't scared but shocked when you did that. Pardon me if I ask. Why am I here again?"
"Didn't Davies tell you before he left you to me". Snape shook his head again, still.. he didn't understand all this. "I need you.. Mr. Snape".
Snape cleared his throat, every word of her was seductive and Snape was uncomfortable with it. She was totally drunk and smelled.
"I need you.."
Raphael begins crawling towards Snape. She then takes a seat between Snape legs. Snape pushed her away from him, rising up from the chair he sat in.
"You drank Miss Raphael. I should leave now. If you need anything ask Mr. Davies to text me".
Snape hurried out. Miss Barb on view with chocolate milk in her hand. Snape reaches it and drinks.
"Thank you and you are right about her. She crawls onto me and tries to kiss me".
Miss Barb laughed, said. "I told you Mr. Snape. You better go before she screams out of your name".
"Exactly what I'm going to do now. I don't think she hears me. Tell Mr. Davies just text me.. that's all. Just urgent matters not like this".
Miss Barb nodded. Snape hurried to the elevator, pushed the button and the door closed.
Moments later. Snape's office. A bursting flaming sound heard from the fireplace. Hermione turned to look at the fireplace and someone came out from it.
It's Snape. Dusting his suit then looked up where Hermione was standing facing him in anger. He smiled.
"Don't.. you.. dare.. smiling.. at... me.. Severus Snape!" Snape looked shocked at his wife. "How dare you!"
Snape walks to her. "My Hermione.."
"Don't you DARE!" she pushed him. "Don't!"
"What did I do wrong about my love? I just got back from London. Is that why you're mad?"
Hermione breathed. "You use your phone while you are in Hogwarts. It's forbidden because the muggle people like me will know our wizardry exists among them!"
"What do you mean muggle like you. My love.. I was born Half-blood like you. My witch mother married a muggle and they lived.. Well, not happier but still..."
"SEVERUS!"
Snape sighs. He walked to his desk. "My love I don't want to argue with you".
"Really? Now tell me why you keep all the secrets from me?" Snape looks at Hermione. "Of course you don't, that is why I ask Minerva. How dare you!"
"And you know all of the secrets I've kept from you? Because I don't want you to worry about it. I try too, I shouldn't explain cause you know already before I did".
"And I smell woman's perfume on you! you're cheating on me, Severus!"
Snape black eyes stare hers. "I don't cheat on my wife. I love you Hermione. How is that possible I do that behind you".
"You keep the secret from me, why can't you cheat behind me".
Snape rolls his eyes, he walks to Hermione. "I am not trying to manipulate your mind, my love. You can use Legilimens spells on me if you like. My mind is open for you, see through my mind whenever you like and for the last time.. I will never cheat on you".
There is silence between Snape and Hermione. Snape can see her red Hermione eyes on him. What kind of possession his wife had was that he didn't know what to do.
All he can do is.. "You're in a pregnant mood my darling. Your mind is not balanced and not thinking straight".
"You think I will believe you, Severus. Argh!"
Hermione screams in pain, Snape catches her before she is forced to kneel down on the carpet. Her hand stroked her belly and the pain started to kill her slowly.
"My love, what happened!?" Snape sees something, like a thick liquid dripping down between Hermione's legs and he knows what it was. "My darling, your water is broke! Was it time?"
"I don't know, I'm too busy yelling at you! I'm still not forgiving you!" she grit her teeth.
Hermione accidentally bite Snape's hand as the contraction begins. Both Snape and Hermione scream.
"Oh.. I'm sorry". she cried.
"Don't be my darling. I will take you to the Hospital Wing. There is no time!"
Snape carried Hermione in his arms, with a wand in his hand. Everything went chaotic.
