Chapter Eleven: Explanations and Naps
A/N: I realized I completely confused some of you guys but I promise it will all be fixed in this chapter and if your question still isn't answered please notify me and I will try to help :]
Thanks for all of the wonderful reviews they made my day better then well... Yesterday :(
Drugs?
Drugs aren't anything except slowly killing pills
If you really want to die, go ahead take as many as you like.
But if you know this is hurting the people you love and love you back, don't do it.
Because every pill you pop is another stab to the heart of your loved ones.
Every sip you take is another person drowning in a river, ocean, pool.
Every shot you take is another stab to my chest.
Every snort you do is another stagger in my breath.
You're killing me, even if you have no idea you're doing it.
You're killing me because my heart is breaking, breaking into tiny pieces that will never be fixed.
Drugs don't do anything except kill.
Do you really want that to happen? Do you really want to live your life knowing you had someone who loved you?
Don't do it. Walk away, drop the cigarette, drop the needle, drop everything and move on with your life.
Go tell your family members and friends you love them because you never know how much time you will have with them.
You never know what you have until you loose it.... And that's the truth.

Thanks for reading that, it was hard for me to write but I got it done. It needed to be said, everyone needs to know what doing drugs has a huge effect on the loved ones. They love you for a reason, don't mess it up. They love you for who you are, who you will come to be, and who you were in the past. They love you not for your good deeds, not for how many trophies you won in the past, not for how many song notes you can hit in five seconds. No, they love you for your heart. Your heart keeps you alive, keeps you safe, and keeps you in the arms of your loved ones. So please don't hurt your body by doing drugs. Drugs are not the answer, never have and never will be.
Please think of what I just told you, think deeply about it and remember you are loved by your family members, by God, and by your friends. If you want to show them back that you love them stop the drugs, just put it down and walk away. You're better then that, you don't need it to live, you don't need it to make you happy, just put it down and walk away.
You will always be missed and loved :'(
In memory of D.T.

Harry happily swung his legs back and forth on the seat as he looked back and forth like he was watching a game of ping pong as the tall people talked.
"Albus I am confused. Please explain to me how Mr. Potter here turned into a child?" Severus asked then seeing the little boy sitting on the edge of his seat lightly pushed him back so he was sitting with his back against the back of the chair.
Harry gave him a smile and wiggled himself back to the edge thinking it was a game. He wasn't going to let the tall man win, no way. It was on!
Severus turned his attention to Albus when he heard him begin to explain, "Well Severus I was on my normal morning walk when I came across you and a baby Harry. I quickly levitated you and picked up Harry then brought you to the Infirmary. It turns out that all the spells you casted on Harry mixed together and turned him into a four year old."
Severus looked down at the child only to see he was sitting at the edge of the seat again, he lightly put him back again then asked, "So he's four years old?"
Albus tilted his head and said, "Yes, Severus, he is four years old."
Severus raised his eyebrows then asked, "Well... How long will he be four?"
Albus smiled at that and said, "Until July 31st of course. Then he turns five."
Severus could've strangled the annoying old man right then and there. "So he won't turn back to a fourteen year old boy?"
"Well I am looking into that, Severus. I am not sure if he will remain a child or if he will go back to his original age. We will just have to wait and see." Albus said as he smiled at the little boy who was attempted to get a Lemon Drop out of the bowl.
Severus saw too and pushed the bowl farther away from the little fingers making Albus shake his head and say sadly, "You're no fun, Severus. What will one Lemon Drop do?"
Severus just stared at the old man like he was insane. "You're joking, right?"
Albus only smiled and pushed the bowl closer to Harry who quickly grabbed one and popped it in his mouth. Severus gave Albus a chilling glare and said, "If he bounces off the walls y-"
"You can deal with it, I'm sure of it." Albus interrupted with an innocent twinkle in his eye.
Severus only glared at him, "We are getting off track of important matters. Now you have no idea when he will return to the age fourteen?" At Albus shake of his head he continued, "And this was caused because of all the charms and spells I tried? They mixed together?"
Albus nodded his head, "Yeah, we are still doing some tests to see if that is truly the reason he was changed. I sincerely doubt he will be four years old forever though, so don't worry."
Harry quickly checked to make sure no one was watching and grabbed a handful of Lemon Drops and popped them in his mouth. He felt someone watching and he shyly looked up to notice it was the old man with blue twinkling eyes. The man only smiled knowingly and nodded his head.
Harry smiled brightly and took one more for the later.
Albus clapped his hands together as he remembered something, "I had the House Elves put a toddler's bed into Harry's bedroom in replace of his big boy bed. I allowed Minerva to get him toys and clothes."
Severus groaned, "You actually allowed her to go shopping for him? His room is probably overflowing with toys!"
Albus only smiled, "I know."
Severus sighed and stood, "Well have a good day Albus. If you find something out please inform me as fast as you can." He then gently picked the four year old up and carried him back to the rooms.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Severus pinched his nose as he tried to calm himself down, "It is time to go to bed child!"
Harry shook his head and ran from him as he yelled, "No nap!"
Severus groaned, this was why he never had children. "Harry come here it is bed time!"
Harry crawled under the table and shook his head, "No nap!"
Severus put one finger up and said sternly, "I will count to three and if you are not over here you will get your bottom smacked. Understood? One!" Harry just stared at him and shook his head fiercely.
Severus sighed and put up two fingers, "Two! Must I remind you what happens when I reach three?"
Harry shook his head and bit his lip, "I'm not tired!"
Severus sighed and got on his knees so he could talk to the little boy, "Harry it is time for your nap, now let's go."
Harry crossed his arms across his chest and puffed his lip out to make a pouting face. "I don't wanna!"
Severus raised his eyebrows at the boy and said, "I will give you one more chance to get out here or I will make do with my threat young man."
"I don't wanna! I not sleepy!" Harry yelled as he stomped him feet while still sitting making him fall over.
Severus sighed, "Then you leave me no choice." He reached under the table and grabbed Harry by his leg and gently pulled him out from under the table. He then stood and placed a firm swat on the little boys' backside making him cry like he was going to die. "It is bedtime, when I tell you it is time to do something you do it. Do you understand?"
Harry wiped his nose on his shirt sleeve and nodded his head, "Y-yes."
'One swat and the child is acting like he was under the Crucio!' Severus thought to himself as he put the little boy in the bed. "Now close your eyes and go to sleep. When you wake up I will know." He gently laid a kiss on the boy's forehead then was about to leave when he heard a small, shy voice ask, "Can you sing to me?"
Severus immediately stopped moving. Did he just hear what he thought he heard? The child wanted Him, Severus Snape, the darkest bat of the dungeons to sing him a lullaby?!
Harry sat up and tilted his head to the side, "Please?"
How could he say no to that?! With a sigh Severus turned and pulled the rocking chair close to the bed.
'What can I sing? Do I even know any lullaby's?!'
Severus closed his eyes and tried to remember if his mother ever sang him a lullaby…
Suddenly one came into his mind, one he heard Lily teach him when they were in school.
Severus closed his eyes and began to sing softly to help the child fall asleep faster.
"Golden slumbers kiss your eyes;
Smiles await you when you rise.
Sleep,
pretty baby,
Do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby.
Cares you know not,
Therefore sleep,
While over you a watch I'll keep.
Sleep,
pretty darling,
do not cry and I will sing a lullaby." He ended the song on a soft note and slowly opened his eyes in hopes he was asleep. He was much to his excitement.
Severus put a Silencio around him so if he made noise Harry would not awake. He then looked through all the clothes and toys Minerva got. He was surprised to notice he liked them all.
A/N: I did not write the lullaby, nor do I know who did *sorry* I do know that it is amazingly adorable :]
I love Harry as a little toddler :] I hope you do too!
