Annabelle knew how she and Draco had been having sex a lot. She was in need of a distraction. And she was grateful she had him. She knew that her life had been flipped upside down with the revelation that Snape was her father.

She had been trying to make things work with her mum. But she didn't know how to. She didn't blame Chloe at all. Severus was the one who said he didn't want her.

Draco was her rock. And he had told her countless times that she would never lose him. He would be there for her as long as he lived.

Annabelle knew that she wanted to make it work with him. He had been her one consistent support and she was thankful knowing that she wasn't alone.

Severus had been trying to speak with Annabelle. But she had told him countless times she wasn't interested. She had Sirius. He was her father. And he was all she needed.

All she knew was that things were confusing. And she needed to somehow make things seem okay and normal again. But she didn't know how.

Morning came and she woke in Chloe's chambers. She had spent the night there to spend time with her parents. Sirius had stayed too. It was nice for her. But she felt weird.

It was hard for her as she knew Sirius wasn't the man who had fathered her. He was her dad, yes. To Annabelle, it did explain a lot as to why he always favourited Harry. And always chose to be around Harry.

Annabelle had always felt weird when it came to it. But she wouldn't ever see Sirius as anyone other than her dad.

The door opened and Chloe walked in. She smiled. "Morning hon. You okay?" She asked.

Annabelle nodded. "Where's dad?"

"He went back to Grimmauld place. He says he wanted to be here when you woke up. But something happened so he needed to go," Chloe told her.

Annabelle smiled. "Okay. Have you spoken to... him?"

Chloe shook her head. "No. And I won't. You're the main focus here Anna. And if you say Severus Snape isn't your father, then he isn't. You matter the most to me. So whatever you want, I will make happen."

Annabelle was in potions. She smiled as Draco sat with her. "Does it feel weird? Knowing he's your father?" He asked.

Annabelle sighed and shrugged. "He got my mum pregnant. That doesn't mean anything to me. Sirius is my dad."

"Yeah don't say that. It sounds weird," Draco said as he smiled. He took her hand. "Are you okay though?" He asked.

Annabelle nodded. "I'm okay. Just trying to make it all work," she told him and took his hand. "Thank you. For being there for me."

"Always."

***
Annabelle walked along the corridor. She saw Chloe with Severus and frowned. "You aren't her dad. You are her father. But you're not a dad. All you did was make me feel like crap. So you are nothing to her."

Severus smirked. "And how would your precious mutt feel if he knew that less than a year ago, you were in my bed screaming my name?" He spat.

Annabelle frowned. She carried on listening to the conversation. "Severus. Leave me alone. It was a mistake. Just like our so called relationship. That was a mistake. I'm happy with Sirius. So leave me alone. Leave my daughter alone," Chloe told him.

Annabelle turned and walked off. Unaware of how it was all about to change.
