Hey lads :) had an english exam today, not gona say how it went, dont wanna jinx it lol :P Anyways just contunuing where we left off. this chapter is dedicated to ThePotionsMaster she is really nice and her story is awesome sauce<3
remember : IMPORTANT DETAIL CHANGE; i have tweaked my story a little bit, nothing major but delilah is actually 13, she shares the same birthday as the twins! i have changed it so if your reading this in the future you wont notice :P
That same pain as in the great hall flashed across his face once again, just for a second. I'm pretty sure he thought nobody saw the crack in his emotionless mask, but I did. He tore his eyes away from me slowly, as though glued.
"Perhaps" he said, drawing the word out, " you have all spent your summer having fun," he sounded slightly disgusted at the very idea, "but may I remind you, the holidays are very much, over. How about we start off with a tricky potion, test your knowlage, see if you havnt been getting a bit LAX over the summer." He said in a voice seething with bitterness. "Turn to page 211. ingredients are, as always in my store. You have until in lunch. Begin." He sat at the desk, eyes down looking blankly at a peice of parchment. Still feeling fairly confused, I opened by book and went with the boys to get the ingredients. Back at my desk, chopping up the dragon liver, it hit me.
"George?" I whisper, "Fred?"
"Yeah?" they whisper back.
"...... Whats Snapes first name?"
"Severus."
I gasp, "Its so obvious..." I whispered to myself, shocked.
"Whats obvious?!" They said incredulously.
"Not now, I will tell you at lunch," I said dropping 11 peices of dragon liver into my cauldren and stirring anti-clockwise 3 times.
"What?!" George said with outrage, "You cant just do that!"
"Thats an hour and a half away!" Fred said impatiantly.
"I can and I will. Back to work my pretties. George 3 turns clockwise, quickly."
"OH God," He stired it quickly, salvaging it.
"Fred," He was staring at me,"eyes on the prize," I said pointing to the potion in front of him.
"Or right, yeah." He looked worried, I think he had figured it out.
I spend the remainder of the lesson wondering if I had finally found my father. I tried not to give it much more thought as I didnt think that I could take it if I let myself beleive it and then have it taken away from me. All the clues pointed to it... Charlotte said the tall man would take me to him... and he had... he just hadn't filled me in... I dont think he had told Snape either, that would explain why he had looked so shocked and hurt at dinner last night... but it wasn't just hurt was it... it looked like he was in pain... I was so confused my the end. I decided I had to go and visit Dumbledore and ask.
"Your Potions should be complete. Turn the heat off. Fill a vial and bring it up. You will each receive your mark next time." Snape droned monotonously, not looking up.
We filled our vialls and left them at the front then grabbed our books and escaped the dungeons.
"I'll see you guys later," said Lee heading in the direction of the bathroom.
"Bye Lee," we said.
"You three talking at the same time is gonna get creepy," he laughed as he turned the corner.
"So," said George expectantly
"Whats wrong?" asked Fred worriedly
"I... I need to go see Dumbledore," I said and turned and started to a walk quickly away.
A warm hand grabbed mine, "Wait," said Fred softly and I turned, "Whats wrong?"
"Nothing," I said my eyes filling with tears.
"Your think Snape might be your dad, dont you?" he said softly again.
"I... I... Yes but I....." the tears spilled over.
"You want to ask Dumbledore before you beleive it?" George said quietly.
"Yeah," I croaked so grateful that they knew me so well that I didnt even have to explain how I was feeling.
"We're coming with you, " Fred said taking my hand.
"You dont even know the way, silly." said George linking his arm through my free one.
"Come on Rosie-Posie we go together, we will always go together," They said
