Chapter 5

Harry paced the halls waiting for his friends to get to the castle. He had been racking his brain trying to figure out what to do. Hermione always knew the best way to handle these types of situations.

An hour before the match was to start, Harry saw his friends walking down the hall towards him. "Ron, Hermione, I am so glad to see you!" Harry ran towards them.

"Hiya Harry!" Ron greeted his friend.

"Oh Harry, good to see you." Hermione hugged Harry.

"Have you seen any of the kids? I told them I would stop by and see them today." Ron was watching over Harry's shoulder to see if he could see any of his numerous nieces or nephews.

"Most of the kids are still in the Great Hall eating breakfast." Harry told him, thanking the stars, this would give him time to talk with Hermione alone.

"I'll be back in a moment." Ron ran off towards the Great Hall. He was a really great uncle (as well as father) and all the kids loved him.

"Hermione, I need your advice."

Hermione smiled. "What?"

"Ummm, Okay…" Harry explained how after a student got hurt and was healing in the hospital wing he and the student's father went to get something to drink and then slept together. Hermione had to keep from laughing, Harry always got himself into trouble (no matter how old he was).

Ron walked down the rows of students and first came to the Ravenclaw table where he found Roxanne. "Roxy, hey there kid." Ron hugged his niece and sat next to her.

"Uncle Ron!" She beamed excitedly.

"So, how's your first year at Hogwarts? You are the first Weasley to not be in Gryffindor, for as long back as I can remember."

"It's just because I am smarter then all of you!" She smiled jokingly.

"Oh you think?" Ron turned to the girl sitting next to Roxanne who was laughing. She looked very familiar, but Ron could not place her. Most of these kids if they were not muggle born were likely to have been the children of is former classmates. "And what is your name?" he questioned her.

"Severn," She smiled.

"What is your last name? You look very familiar, I may know your parents."

"You know her dad!" Roxanne exclaimed.

"Oh, well then who is your dad?"

"Professor Snape!" Roxanne again answered for her friend. "This is Severn Snape."

Ron coughed, he was not expecting that. Yet as he looked at the girl they was no mistake that she was the daughter of his most hated professor. She was prettier then Snape, but she still resembled him.

"Oh right, I do know your father." Ron tried to smile. "Well I need to go find the other kids. Remember to write us often."

Roxanne smiled and hugged her uncle again before he left.

"So let me get this straight. You saw a student get hurt, and you took her to the hospital wing. You stayed with her until her father arrived and then you waited out in the hall to find out later to see if she was alright. The two of you go out for drinks, there is a bit of flirting and a lot of drinking, and you wake up in bed with this student's father. Now you are wondering what to do? Well if you really like him then there is nothing wrong with you dating a student's father. It is not like dating a student. I mean that is just weird."

Harry smirked on the inside, it is like dating a student, just not for him.

Ron came back and joined Harry and Hermione as they started out towards the Quidditch pitch. "Did you find all the kids?" Harry asked him.

"No just Roxy. I am not sure where the others were." Ron put his arm around his wife and then remembered he had something to say to her. "Did you know that Professor Snape has a daughter?"

Hermione stopped dead in her tracks. "Harry James Potter, if it is you better tell me!" She glared at him.

Harry cringed at the thought that she just figured everything out. "Might be."

Hermione gave him a look of disapproval.

"What are you two talking about?" Ron questioned.

"Umm," Harry was not sure how to tell him.

Hermione rolled her eyes. "I will not say that I approve but my advice still stands. If you think it will make you happy, then do what you think is best."

"Potter, may I have a word with you?" Snape came up towards the three of them.

"Yes," Harry slightly blushed, then followed Snape away.

"His daughter is lucky, she doesn't look like him at all." Ron joked.

Hermione watched as her friend walked away with their former professor, and hoped that everything would work out for the best. Honestly she could not see what Harry saw in Snape, though she wanted him to be happy!

Snape really was not looking forward to this conversation, he was not sure what to say, but something had to be said if they wanted to continue to work together, peacefully. "About the other night, I am not sure I remember all that happened, but I want to apologize for putting you in that situation. It's just that it had been a rough night and well…"

"You have nothing to apologize for, I would not have been there if I did not want to be there." Harry tried to reassure the man.

"It's just if, umm," This conversation was getting harder and harder for Snape with every word.

"My, my, Professor Snape are you asking me out?" Harry was beaming.

"It's just I thought, maybe, if you wanted to do something outside of the castle at some point I would not be against this, if you weren't." Severus felt like a child asking someone out for the first time. This put him in a vulnerable position that he was not used to, at least not within the castle.

"Even though your daughter does not like me?" Harry joked.

"She wants me to date, she'll come around." Snape smiled at Harry.

The two stood talking and Severn came up to her dad. "Dad, will you sit with me?" Severn smiled at her dad. "Oh hello Professor Potter," she said emotionless, she still did not like him even though he might have saved her life. She didn't know what her dad and Professor Potter were talking about but that didn't matter, the match was getting ready to start and if they did find seats they would miss the release of the golden snitch.

"Alright, let's go." Severus smiled once more at Harry, "I guess I will see you later then."

"Yeah," Harry also smiled.

Severn looked up at her dad and saw him smiling at Potter of all people and rolled her eyes.

Harry found where Ron and Hermione were sitting and joined them.

"Looks like you survived your conversation with Snape, what did he want?" Ron questioned.

"Oh nothing." Harry winked at Hermione.

"Yeah?" She questioned smiling.

"Yeah," Harry smiled back.

"What are you two going on about?" Ron did not like it when Harry and Hermione had their own language.

"Nothing!" they said in unison.
