Chapter 4

No way!

Last time-

"Thank you sir, I think I will stay down here tonight, if you don't mind" Hermione said.

"No Hermione I don't mind. Now I will go put your stuff in your room and you can use the fire in the library to call your friends."

"Okay, thank you" she said walking to the fire and throwing a pinch of floo powder in the fire. "The burrow," she said as she felt her body move. She looked around and saw she was at the burrow and smiled.

"Hermione, hi!" her best friend yelled.

"Hi to you too Ginny" she said smiling.

"How are you doing? I didn't think that you were coming this year. I mean we are going back to Hogwarts tomorrow, are you staying tonight? If you are I have to go tell my mom. Are you, Hermione, are you staying here tonight? I have so much I need to tell you" Ginny said giving her a bone-crushing hug.

"No Ginny, I'm staying with my umm my father" she said "Where are the guys? I have to tell you something really important."

"Up in Ron's room hold on and I'll go and get them." Ginny said walking out of the room and to Ron's room. She grabbed Ron and Harry and then walked back down to the living room, where Hermione was now sitting on the couch her eyes closed trying to think about how to tell her friends and thinking of their reactions.

"Hermione" Harry and Ron said together as they ran over to her and hugged her "Are you staying tonight?" Ron asked

"No I just have to tell you guys something really important," she said "and it couldn't wait until tomorrow."

"You made Head Girl?" Harry guessed.

Hermione laughed. "Yes of course I made Head Girl but that's not the news, it's something more important than that and even anything to do with school and schoolwork."

"Whoa, it must be important than" Ginny joked.

"Ginny, this is no joking matter, what I am about to tell you"

"Okay Hermione shoot" Ron said.

"Well, today I found out I was adopted"

"Really? Who are your real parents?" Harry asked

"Well, my mother is dead"

"Well, than who is your father and how did you find out?" Ron asked

"Well I found out because he came to get me from the Granger's house about two hours ago" Hermione said.

"Well, Hermione who is he? Do we know him?" Ginny asked

"Yeah you know him," she said. Right as she said that the fire turned green and out stepped Severus.

"Hermione there you are, do you realize you have been here almost two hours?" he asked

"Why do you care how long she has been here Snape?" Harry asked.

"You haven't told them yet Hermione?" he asked

She shook her head. "I was just getting to it before you barged in" she said

"Well sorry. I want you back in half hour no ifs ands or buts" he said

"Yes sir" she said as he disappeared into the flames.

"Why was he just here?" Ron glared.

"That is what I have been trying to tell you" she said

"He's your father" Ginny screamed.

"Always knew you were faster than the guys" she said.

"No you're joking" Harry said "He treated you like crap the past six years you have been at Hogwarts and now all of a sudden he is your dad? No way!"

"Harry listen, we all know of his job as a spy, he was looking out for me when my mom and him decided that it would be best if she went and lived in the muggle world until I was born and then until Voldemort was defeated. Then she would bring me back into the wizarding world, but my mom died in childbirth and I was put up for adoption" she said

"But Hermione, him?" Ron asked

"You're kidding, I mean come on Snape?" Ginny said

"Ginny's right Hermione it's Snape we're talking about. You really think he is going to care about you? Let alone, you actually think that he is your father!" Harry said, "That's hysterical."

"I have no choice over who my parents are" she said "And he just happens to be mine. I am sorry guys, think about this until tomorrow, than we will discuss it on the train, if I decide to ride it. If I don't we will talk about it in my room tomorrow night before curfew" Hermione said standing up and walking toward the fire.

"Fine" they all said as she disappeared.

When she got back to her father's library she fell to her knees and started to cry.

Snape over heard her and walked over to her. "Hermione, what's wrong?"

"They completely disowned me. They won't hear a thing I have to say about anything. I tried to explain everything to them but they just laughed" she said looking up at him.

"Awe Hermione, come here" he said hugging her.

"They're my best friends, they should stick with me through thick and thin. It shouldn't matter about who my parents are."

"I know Hermione, I really do, but sometimes when you tell friends something sudden and surprising like you did, it takes awhile for it to sink in and for them to accept it" he said.

Hermione nodded and stood up. "I'm going to bed. Thanks for everything dad" she said walking to her room.

She walked in and looked around. The room was a dark green and gray. "Ever the Slytherin, my dad is" she said as she walked up to her mirror and almost screamed. "Ummm dad" she said running out of her room.

"Yes, what is it Hermione?" he asked walking out of the library.

"My hair" she said "look at it, it isn't mine" Hermione's brown bushy hair was now black and straight, looking almost exactly like Severus'.

"Hermione remember what I said about your mother putting glamour charms on you? This is probably one of them" he said smiling at the likeness of their hair now.

She nodded. "Sorry sir" she said "I'm going to be going to bed now" she said walking back to her room. As she crawled under the green covers and closed her eyes thinking of what tomorrow would bring.
