Minerva's Daughter Annabella

Dobby was Muslim and Minerva was HIV positive.

*My friends and I checked our birthdays and that was them.^

Bella walked sorrowfully up to the headmaster's office all alone. The entrance was already open and Bella walked slowly up the steps as she knew the conversation that was about to happen. "Ah my girl. How was it?" Albus asked with a knowing look in his eye. "I think you know how it went." Bella retorted quietly and Albus just nodded. "Where is the portrait of Snape?" Albus smiled knowing full well that the truth had come out. "Across there." A long slender finger stretched to the left of Bella and she followed it making her way through portraits of old headmasters, although Bella had walked down the path a thousand times over she felt the whole walk was new and a exhilarating. "Thought you got away but you didn't. I can annoy you all I want now and you can do nothing." Snape looked visibly alarmed at this statement but looked proud. "Don't pull that. Now I need to recover your body where is it Mr 'I shall play bad when I am actually good' Snape looked at the small girl and gave her a pleased smile. "In the shack." Bella nodded and left without another word as the thought of Snape actually smiling made her happy all over.

The next two years were exciting for Bella and students all eventually returned after the castle was rebuilt. "Hermione" Bella shouted wildly was her old friend returned. Very little conversation was held by the young girl unless it was directed at her mother or a portrait. "Guess what!" Bella sat proudly and continued telling Hermione her news "I am sitting my N.E.W.T levels this year. Well I start today." The small witch was filled with such pride that it was unimaginable. "Wow. You will be done before me." Hermione announced proudly for the young girl. "Anyway I have my first three exams tonight and tomorrow." The first meal back had some old but also lots of new faces. Minerva was sat in the headmistresses chair with Professor Sprout at her side. The two had become almost inseparable in the two years but when Sprout admitted to wanting to retire Minerva had given her a 'wait a little while' look and Sprout obeyed.

That was a while ago though. Bella was now back at the castle at the age of 23 but this time she wasn't in uniform. She walked into the headmistresses office and smiled a warm welcome to her mother who never seemed to put her stupid quill down. "I know. I know." Minerva looked utterly surprised as Bella walked in cheerfully. "I am glad you are here but, why?" Bella looked mischievously at the old woman. "Professor May was interviewing. She didn't know I was your daughter but I impressed her and so I got the job. I am your new transfiguration professor." Minerva looked glad and the two spoke for a little over an hour. "I thought I had lost you to the muggle world." Minerva admitted and Bella nodded. "Things change. I also want to say sorry. Sorry I didn't respond to your letters I wanted to I just couldn't. Isaac told me you asked him about me but you never returned to hear my response." Minerva patted her daughter's hand lovingly and spoke "oh well. Thank you for the birthday and Christmas presents by the way." Bella stood and kissed her mother on the head. "Right I have a man to annoy and a wedding to plan. I assume Severus is still where he was." Minerva nodded and laughed knowing fully what she was off to do.

As Bella reached the painting she shouted loudly "You thought didn't you?!" Severus who had been asleep jumped and all of the paintings laughed at him. "You absolute thot." Severus sneered and replied "What is a thot?" Bella just shrugged "Ask the muggles." The two talked a little and Snape laughed but Bella had missed that. "Six years, it has been six years. Where have you been?" Snape asked when curiosity got the better of him. "The muggle world." Snape nodded knowingly as she smiled a goodbye. The day was filled with greetings and love for everyone. At dinner they all sat and spoke lovingly "You know when you were born I always said it would be a big day." Bella smiled sadly. "Yeah. Dad and Dumbledore died on it. My boobs were double D for a reason." Minerva hugged the girl in as tightly as possible. "You do realise that you are also head of Gryffindor right?" Bella looked shocked and shook her head. "I was not told that part. I quit." Bella joked as they sat eating. "The students shall arrive soon. Tomorrow." Sprout announced and all professors were 'gladdened' by the thought.
