Chapter 6

In the weeks that followed Severn noticed something different with her dad, he was happier. During class he would give the house points, and he even smiled a time or two in front of the students. Severn did not know what was up with him but suspected it had to do with the hickey she saw before. Severn was dying to know who it was her dad was dating, but she never could get a free moment to go down to him.

"It has to be someone in the castle," she told Roxanne, who despite her fear of Snape enjoyed the mystery of who he might be dating. From their places at the Ravenclaw table the were checking out the staff, wondering.

"McGonagall?" Roxanne laughed.

"No, she's like a hundred." Severn also laughed.

"Madame Pince?"

Severn raised an eyebrow at her friend. "The librarian, no."

"You're right, no."

"What about Professor Longbottom?" Severn asked.

"I think he's as afraid of your dad as I am."

Severn sighed.

Roxanne looked up at the table to see Snape smiling over at Potter. "What about Professor Potter?"

"My dad says he's a waste of space," Severn noticed that her friend was starring up at the teacher's table and she also looked to see Potter whisper something to Snape, and he blushed.

Roxanne knew that Severn did not like Potter and would be less than thrilled to know if the two were seeing each other.

"Let's talk about something different. So, in two days is the next Ravenclaw Quidditch match, it's with Slytherin."

Late that night Severn and Roxanne were sitting in the common room working on homework. There were no other kids still up, but Severn was not the type of student to leave her homework for Sunday night, and Roxanne got used to doing her homework on Friday night with her friend.

"Severn, may I ask you a question?" Roxanne asked shyly.

Severn was not sure about this uncharacteristic shy attitude from her friend, "what?"

"When we were guessing possible people you dad might be dating, the only person you guessed was a man," Roxanne paused, she was trying to make her question sound the way she intended it to, "Is your dad…"

"Gay?" Severn questioned. "Yes."

"But what about your mom?" Roxanne was now completely confused.

Severn smiled, this was a good story. "The way my dad explains it to me, he was out one night when my mother came and introduced herself. My dad did not date women at the time but my mother had been so charming and fun that he decided he would take her up on a date. My dad says he could not believe that he was falling love with a woman, and it scared him. But he did love her. When he had to return to Hogwarts for the school year, my mother decided to break off their relationship, he says she knew she was pregnant, but didn't want him to give up his life for her."

"You never talk about your mother." Roxanne noticed, thinking back on their conversations.

"My mother got sick while she was pregnant, and not long after I was born she died. My uncle Oliver brought me here, to Dumbledore. He's the one that brought me to my dad, he didn't even know I existed."

Roxanne felt sorry for her friend.

"I miss her," Severn always got sad when she talked about her mother. "My grandparents have pictures of her, Granddad says I have her eyes, he calls it sparkling blue, but I think it is more of a sapphire." There was a long pause. "Anyway, growing up, my dad dated a man, nothing serious. He doesn't even know, that I knew they were dating. He just said he was a friend."

Roxanne half smiled. "We are going to figure this out."

Severn shrugged.

Snape smiled at the absurdity, Harry was sitting on the floor grading papers which where sitting on the couch. Snape was sitting at the desk. The two were quietly working during their free period. Severus had offered the desk to Harry but he said he was honestly more comfortable on the floor as he was, Severus could not keep his eyes off of Harry.

"What?" Harry looked up and noticed the older man staring at him.

"Nothing, just trying to figure you out." Severus half smiled, then returned to his grading.

After a few more minutes Harry stood up and walked over to the desk, he leaned across and kissed Severus, "I have to get to my class."

"Liar, you have fifteen minutes," Severus teased kissing him again.

"I have to get things set up," another kiss.

"If you must go," yet another kiss.

"You know having a daughter has made you a bit of a softy. She's made you a bit of a romantic," Harry kissed him again. "You used to be mean." he smiled.

"And you used to be a pain in my ass," Severus smiled.

"Well maybe some day you will be the pain in mine," Harry laughed at the innuendo. As he turned to walk out of the room he was scared motionless at the sight of Severn standing there. The expression on her face was a mixture of shock, anger, embarrassment and rage. The girl looked at though she was either going to scream or run away.

"Severn, when did you come in?" Severus tried to sound calm.

Shaking her head, without saying a word, looking as though she was about to cry, Severn turned and walked away.

Severus got up and ran after the girl.

Harry sat down, this was not going to help his relationship with the girl. The hurtful expression on her face was an image Harry would have a hard time getting out of his mind. He knew what he had to do, he had to call things off with Severus, at least until Severn warmed to him. Nothing good could come from their relationship if it caused problems between Severus and his daughter.
