I'm glad this story is being read, I was worried it would turn out stupid. Thanks
He stood in the fog waiting for the next sprit to arrive, the time gave him a moment to think. Hermione was in love with a wizard who had no idea. He was hoping it was him, he had thought about her so much since she started working for him.
"Hello Severus." He knew that voice, only Dumbledore would do this to him. He sighed as he turned around. This was going to be the longest part of this night. Of all the people Albus could have gotten for tonight, he choose him.
"Sirius." Severus glared at him. "Let me guess my future right?" Sirius nodded. "You are going to show me I end up dying alone and nobody cares for me because I push them all away. Don't waste your time I know this already."
"Please mate that's not the future I didn't care for you in your past." Sirius snorted. Severus pushed his lips together not to hit Sirius. "Nope Albus thinks your future needs a twist. Since you read ahead and know how the story ends we are changing it."
"What?" Severus head was spinning.
"Lily said you were thick. Keep up, I really don't have all night and I'm doing this because I owe Albus a favor." Sirius glared at him. "You know what your future will be if you keep down this path, I can tell you Hermione's is just as bad. She because of you she never leaves her house and works all the time. My job is to show you your future if you listen to us and change."
"What if I don't like it and don't change." Severus sneered at him.
"Then I am going to beat you till you do." Sirius rolled his eyes. "I know you are a hard headed bastard but we all went to a lot of trouble to help you." Severus sighed and motioned to move. "That's better." Sirius touched him as they were standing at the manor. The house was decorated in green and silver, garland and holly lined the walls. Christmas trees were everywhere, all of them were decorated in silver and green. "I never was found of those colors you know." Sirius smirked at him.
They made their way into the ballroom, Severus was standing in the front of the room next to Lucius. Draco was sitting next to Harry holding a blond baby boy. The room was packed full of people. "Oh look the bat is getting married." Sirius poked him. Severus growled at him. The bride walked past them in a white dress with silver and gold trim, they were getting to the part of removing her veil when Sirius touched him.
"What in the bloody hell, I didn't see who the witch was." Severus was glaring.
"That's because you are thick and haven't figured it out yet." Sirius smirked as he touched him again. They were in the living room of Spinner's End, a tree was up in the corner and Severus was sitting in a chair reading a potion book. "At least you put something up, you could read something other than potion books you know. Have you thought about a Muggle romance novel? I'm just saying." Severus glared at the ghost.
"See I get married and I'm still alone." Sirius smacked him in the back of his head as a brown hair girl with curls everywhere and silver eyes and a black hair boy with brown eyes ran up to him from the kitchen. "Daddy, mommy is cooking dinner can you read to us?" The girl handed him a book. Severus smiled and picked them and sat him on his lap. The women came out of the kitchen, Severus still couldn't see her face but he knew from the little girl who it was. "Dinner will be ready soon, love." He nodded and went back to reading his story to the kids. The vision went dark.
"So have you figured out who yet?" Sirius was watching him.
Severus sighed and looked at him. "Hermione."
"Dear Merlin it took you just all night." Sirius rolled his eyes. "I mean really thick." Severus balled his hands, he was not going to kill this ghost.
"Last vision from me." Sirius smiled at him. "You are dying in this one but not the way you said."
Severus was standing in his bedroom, he was old. His hair had turned grey and his face was wrinkled. Hermione was sitting next to him holding his hand as he was chocking some. He was rubbing his head with a cool towel. A women walked in with brown hair and grey eyes, she had to middle age herself. She was followed by a tall blond man and three adults who were holding kids of their own. The room was full with at least 12 people standing in it. The brown hair women sat on the bed and helped Hermione rub his head. "Hey daddy." She was fighting back tears. "You have to hold on ok. Harry and Draco are on their way and Shamus and Rose are coming." He could hear the sound of the floo as a tall black hair man and a red head girl ran in. "Mom are we late?" He was out of breath. Hermione shook her head. "Hey dad, Fred and Kate and the kids are coming, Harry and Pricilla and their four, Molly and Roger and the baby will be here soon ok. See old man you got us all home for Christmas." The man on the bed smiled and nodded his head. The room was filled to the brink soon with over twenty people. He watched as Hermione leaned in as the room was talking and kissed him. "They are all home my love. It's time to go. I love you and I will see you soon." The man on the bed closed his eyes and was gone. The room went black.
"You will miss all of this if these shadows don't change soon." Sirius put his arm around Severus. "I don't get what she sees in you but you have a long and great life with her." Severus nodded. "But I warn you, you make her cry and I will kick your ass." Sirius took his two fingers and pointed them to his eyes and back at Severus as he walked away. Severus was running in the fog, he had to wake up. Hermione couldn't be alone again and he wanted the life he was shown. He need her, hopefully it wasn't too late.
