apparition | d.m (sequel to hypothermia)

"Don't forget your wand, Ophy!!" I shouted up the stairs at the little eleven year old who giggled and ran back up shouting, "Sorry daddy' I keep forgetting!!"
I rolled my eyes, "I should just get you a remembrall."
I ran my fingers through my hair and hastily gathered up my daughters stuff for Hogwarts.
I heard stomps from behind me and saw Ophy jumping down the stairs from one step to the next.
After the last step she jumped into my back and latched onto my neck.
I chuckled, "Excited?"
She nodded frantically, "I hope I get sorted into Ravenclaw!!"
I smiled, "You will, Princess."
"Maybe Slytherin." She murmured but got trailed off, "Daddy who is that?"
She pointed to a picture of her mum that I recently framed and placed on the dresser.
"That's your mother." I whispered, and put her down. She walked towards the frame and picked it up, staring at it in awe.
"This is really her?" She asked,
"Yes."
"What was her name?"
"Constance. Constance Evangeline Snape." I smiled, memories of her popping in my head.
"Snape? Like Severus Snape? She was the daughter of him? Albus is named after him!"
I chuckled, "Yes he is and you at named after her."
"Was she really this beautiful?"
"She was like a goddess."
"Why did she love you?"
"I don't know. I wasn't good enough for her.
"Where is she?" I closed my eyes when she asked this and rubbed the stray tears under my eyes.
"She's gone."
She hesitated before asking her last question, "Why did she leave?"
I sighed, "Because I let her go."

"Aunts Destiny helped me get my bird," Ophelia smiled, "I got a nice black one with one blue eye and one green eye. I named her Eve."
She held her black owl up, "It's a girl." She added,
My heart felt heavy as her owl had all the traits of Constance.
Black hair. Blue eye. Green eye.
Eve.
"Sometimes I talk to her and pretend she's my mummy." Ophelia whispered quietly,
I frowned, maybe I should date and find her a mummy.
But I couldn't do that. It would feel like I would be replacing her and I could never do that.
No one would fill that dark place that once had so much light.
I was broken out of my thoughts when Ophelia started screaming bloody murder when Laura and Harry were walking towards us with Albus and Ariella. Harry and Albus had stopped to talk, and I could feel. I felt how they felt. Albus was probably worried about Hogwarts and Harry is just being a good dad.

I smiled and gave Laura a hug
"How do you feel about Hogwarts, Anne?" Laura asked Ophy with a smile, she called her Anna because she was obsessed with her middle name; Annabelle named after Destiny who was probably somewhere around here with Caius.
"I'm excited!!" Ophy grinned, "I can't wait to make new friends!"
"And break boys hearts?" Harry knocked as he walked up to us with Albus behind him.
Ohpy scrunched her nose, "Not boys. Girls probably."
I face palmed, "Ophelia we've talked about this. No speaking about open sexuality."
She nodded, "Right. Just kiss a girl and let the motherfuckers jaws dropped."
"Jesus Christ, Draco!" Laura exclaimed and punched my arm, "Why kind of parenting do you do?!"
I rubbed my arm, "Bloody hell, woman! I don't know! I found an online parenting thingy, come thug called Warped Tour,"
She groaned, "That's a type of show, venue shindig. It's for metal heads and rock and post hardcore and anything."
I made an 'ohhh' and blushed sheepishly.
Harry sighed, "Come on, Draco. Let's take the kids to the platform."
I nodded and took Ophy's hand and she happily walked beside me but when we neared the wall she slowed down a little bit and gripped tightly on my hand.
I knew this phase. I went through it.

"I'll be with you, Alright?"
She looked up at me with her vibrant blue eyes, "Promise?"
I felt a pain in my heart at those words but I nodded, "I promise, princess."

Dad,

When we got off the train I heard so many stories from many 1st years about this place. They told me that a war had happened here, like the one you told me about. How an evil man had come taken everything from everyone. Albus says he took uncle Fred from Uncle George. Remus and Tonks and that reminds me, I finally met Teddy. He has nice turquoise hair. I touched it and it felt like clouds.
They also told me that mum had schooled here and that you guys were the basically the Slytherin Queen and King. You didn't tell me you were a king, is that why you call me princess?
I also got to see Uncle Neville. Well, professor Neville and Professor Luna. Strange.
I got sorted into Slytherin
I even met this girl with white blond hair like how it was when you were in school, her name is Arciana but she likes to go by Ace.
She's cute, I like her.

Anyways, I miss you Daddy and I love you.

Love, Ophelia

p.s. There's a portrait here that looks like mum, she called me princess but ran away from me, whilst crying. It made me sad. Maybe I'll see her again sometime.

I closed Ophelia's letter and smiled at myself.
I knew it was a great idea to get her portrait enchanted.
