Little Harry

Little day

Having had breakfast and gotten Harry ready for the day Severus came through to the boys bedroom, Harry was sat at a small desk colouring a picture.

"What have you got there, son?" Severus asked, leaning over Harry as he worked hard, tongue sticking out as he scribbled away furiously.

"Picture for you, da!" He chirped happily, feeling pride over his picture he had drawn. Severus took a closer look at the drawing, in black crayon stood himself, with much longer than usual black hair, and to his side stood little harry in a Slytherin green jumper and black shorts. It amused him that the hair was much longer in the picture. "Why's my hair so long, kid?"

"Dunno, just is." Harry replied, very matter-of-factly. Severus scooped up the sassy little in his arms chuckling.

"Well mister, we have to go find Autumn and you and I both have lessons to get to today, so that's enough colouring, you can come back to finish it off later." He carried Harry upside down out of the room and Harrys laughter filled the small living quarters.

Placing Harry down on his feet, Severus went to put on his final teaching robes and stood straightening them in the mirror, Harry came and toddled over, standing before Severus and watching what the man did, deciding that he, too, needed to sort out his clothes.

"Is this the new thing, hmm? Copy everything Da does?" He smirked down at his son who was tugging lightly at his white onesie's collar and adorably small Slytherin school robes.

"Uhuh Dada, gonna be jus' like you when I grow up with the cape an' everythin'." He responded and Severus stowed his wand away in his robe pocket, fondly chuckling, before turning back to Harry.

"Well, in order to do that we have to get you to class. Lets not be late on our first day back." Severus called and opened the front door. The small boy zipping out the moment it opened, leaving Severus to lock the doors and hurry after the hyper little.

-------------------------

"Harry has had his breakfast this morning Autumn, sorry I can't stop to talk, I've got to run back to the dungeons." He spoke hurriedly from the entrance to the little rooms.

"Come through and use the floo, Severus. It's just in our staff room." Samuel spoke from where he was sat with a few other carers.

"Thank you, Samuel, that's most helpful." Severus responded, making his way to the staff room door. "Bye, Harry, I'll see you later." Severus called but before he entered the office a small body collided with his leg.

"Gonna miss you da." Harry mumbled, not seeming to want to let go of his trouser leg.

"I'll miss you too son, but you have to stay with Autumn." He responded. "I will come see you at lunch time." Harry still wasn't budging.

Autumn, sensing the predicament, made her way over and pulled Harry from his fathers robes, the little wasn't happy about it but at least he wasn't throwing a full blown tantrum.

-----------------------

"Okay class! You have all done brilliantly today!" That snapped Harry out of his dozing state. "You may all pack away and head downstairs for lunch. Keep practicing with the use of a quill and complete page 32 in your activity books please." The professor spoke, tidying their equipment with a wave of their wand, everyone slowly exiting the room.

"Come along Harry, Severus should be here soon as promised." Autumn said and he stood to leave, only to have Autumn shift his robes aside and check his diaper! No fair, he was tricked!
