A new threat: the years after Hogwarts
Chapter 5
"I would like to welcome every single one of you to another year at Hogwarts, or to those who have never been here before an excellent first year here." The Welcoming Feast was underway. The Sorting had taken place and Dumbledore was giving his start-of-term speech. Severus sat there with his hand on his stomach nervously.
"Now I must announce some rather excellent news. Our very own potions master, Professor Snape-Potter, has just told me that he is pregnant with his and Professor Potter-Snape's first child" Cheers erupted as Severus and Harry tired to hide.
"Now onto some rather grave news. As I'm sure you have noticed that we have many aurors here and members of the Order of Phoenix here. That is because someone that we had all thought dead is indeed very alive today." Everyone was hanging onto Dumbledore's every word.
"We do not want you alarmed but in the case of an attack here, it has been decided that anyone 5th year and under will be evacuated if possible. But enough of that. Time to tuck into out wonderful food." With a blink of the eye food appeared on the table and soon there was chatter and the clinking of silverware on plates filling the air.
"Sev?" Severus looked at Harry and saw that he was clearly distressed about something.
"Love if there is an attack here, what are you going to do? I can't lose you or our baby" Severus swallowed the piece of roast beef he had in his mouth before answering.
"I'm going to be right there by your side. I don't want to be locked in our rooms worried about you. And I'm sure our baby would be safe" Harry nodded and the rest of the feast was eaten in silence between them. Both of them were thinking very hard about the up-coming year.
