Never Bite the Hand that Feeds You
She hadn't realised immediately, but upon closer inspection she saw the similarities. He had been just a baby when she'd cradled him – no older than a few months – but now he was a grown man; handsome and strong.
"What's his name again, dear?" She leaned close to her son, nodding in the direction of the handsome young man opposite them.
Slightly surprised, her son responded, "Dean. Mudblood."
"Of course, dear." She spoke no further of the man, but the corner of her eye still took in his muscly build and determined face.
He appeared again the next day, exiting the Leak Cauldron alone. Yes, he's a Mudbl – Muggleborn. His parents probably aren't here.
She cautiously approached him, timid at first, but unable to deny her attraction as she came face-to-face. "Dean, isn't it?" she asked.
"Yes." He eyed her suspiciously. Of course, he'd probably heard of her, or recognised her at the least. He attended school with her son after all.
"I mean no harm, I just wished to –"
What on earth was she doing?
"Yes?"
"I just… I….."
She had a son this boy's age.
Without a word, she turned around and walked away. She would leave her fantasies to her head – where they belonged. There, he couldn't bite. Not much, anyway.
