I'm sorry to those of you who have wanted to read chapter three, but I've had a sick baby. Not a good excuse, but the best one I've got (poor Jagger his mommy is so mean to him). It's not just me though my husband told his boss that if his kid wasn't such a big bag of puck and fever he'd have been on time.

I'd like to give special thanks to moon82993 who took the extra two seconds to review. Not that I'll do this for everyone, but I'm gifting this chapter to her as a present to know I wrote it with two hours of sleep and a screaming baby trying to eat my keyboard it's a special honor I hate my own kid right now(let all the bad parent reviews begin). Now on with the production.

During the next year Severus did live in the Dumbledore's Hogsmade home, but longed for more comfort than a house that he rented to ease his girlfriend's mind. She would sneak in almost every night and spend time with him and usually she had to heal a wound or two.

Bryn would trek to see him without fail, but he knew she was neglecting her work. She would always say it didn't matter, but he knew she wouldn't let him have gotten away with that , and his inner scholar said that she deserved better than to put off her learning for him.

He did the only thing he could. He started warding the passageway she came through.

Bryn was extremely upset when she found that one night she couldn't get through the secret passageway she'd taken most of the time she'd lived at Hogwarts and she wondered why that was. Her mother couldn't know, she was far too unperceptive of her daughter's rebellious streak, her father could know, he seemed to be nearly omniscient unlike that awful Hufflepuff Sybil, but he knew she used that passageway to visit Severus and didn't mind as long as she never missed any classes.

Suddenly she was struck with a thought. Maybe Severus had the passageway warded. As sudden as the revelation hit her she was pulling out a quill and ink to write to the bastard boyfriend of hers. It would be something his university teachers would be proud of too the very idea that she couldn't heal his wound that very well may kill him scared her more than anything else in this world. No one else would care for Severus. St. Mungo's only helped people after checking their arms for the Mark.

With that she sent the letter to Severus using Fawkes her familiar.
