Hidden Love

Chapter 5 (Misunderstanding)

During the course of the day Lilith had went and visited her father only to be suprised to see him holding a baby in a black blanket.

"Uh...is that your baby?"

Severus almost dropped the child out of his arms at the question. "Ofcours not. What do you see me as Lilith. A God damn baby maker?"

Lilith tried her best to not laugh at her father's face expression. "So if it's not yours then who's is it?"

Severus's face blanked from emotion. "I can't tell you yet."

Lilith beamed. "It is funny though to see you the grumpy old dungeon bat holding an inoccent little baby."

Severus felt a touch of hurt at that sentence but did not show it. Instead he quitly said. "I never knew that I was such a monster."

Lilith suddenly realised what she said wrong. "I'm sorry daddy. I didn't mean it like that."

Severus smiled at his daughter suppressing the hurt he felt. "Lilith, Harry was looking for you just a few minutes ago. Go look what he wants. It's bad enough that he bugs be in class."

Lilith nodded. "As you wish father."

Lilith had left her father's headqauters making her way to the Griffendoor common room.

It was becoming late so why whould her brother want to speak to her now.

Sighing she came to a stop infront of the potrait of the fat lady. Looking up at the confused woman Lililth said. "I wish to see Harry please."

The potrait swinged open and facing her was Harry. He gazed at his sister with sparkiling eyes. "Lilith I want to talk to you about something important."

Lilith frowned and watched as her brother pulled her into his house common room.

The place was quite and there was no one inside except for Ron and Hermoine.

Harry pulled his sister over to where the others were sitting on the couch by the fireplace.

Ron gave Lilith a hard look. "Hey mate, are you sure you can trust your sister, knowing thats she's a slytherin and all."

Hermoine punched Ron on his arm giving him a warned look.

"Yeah I don't see why not." Harry said slightly.

Lilith felt tears pricking at her eyes, they spoke of her like she's filth. Forcing herself to stay calm.

Ron sighed. "You do know that Professor Snape is her head of house. Besides she can go and tell him everything that we are going to tell her. Then we three will be killed."

Hermoine rolled her eyes. "Oh do shut up Ron, you are exaturating. I trust Lilith, she woun't go tell no one."

All of them turned now looking at Lilith, who was busy figeting with her school robes not daring to make eye contact with them.

Harry cleared his throat saying. "Lilith do you know if Professor Snape has been sneaking around at night?"

Lilith nodded. "He only stalks the corrodoors at night if he is on patroll duty."

"Have you heard him speak of the Sorcers Stone?" Hermoine asked.

Lilith shaked her head slightly confused about what they were asking her about. "Not once."

"We believe that Professor Snape is busy with something dangerous and that he is trying to harm our school." Harry said.

Lilith pressed her nails deep into her palm as anger slowly rose in her. "Professor Snape would never hurt no one. Yes he can be a basterd but that don't mean that he will hurt anyone."

Ron stood up from the couch. "How do ya know that? Yes he's your head of house but that didn't mean you'll know him. Besides don't you think there's something wrong with him?"

Lilith bit down on her bottom lip hard, trying to force her anger away. "Think what you want, you won't in any case take advise from a Slytherin."

She then turned away from them and left the Griffondoor common room, heading back towards her Slytherin house dormitory.

As she was walking her black cat appeared out of nowhere, running towards her. The cat clawed her way up Lilith's school robes curling around Lilith's neck.

Lilith frowned at her cat. "What's the matter Gildra, why are you shivering so?"

Gildra anwered by wipping her tail back and forth, her gaze concetraiting on the corrodoor where she ran out from.

Lilith clasped her hand around her wand that was hidden in her pocket.

But after a while no danger seemed to arise.

So she decided that her cat was being silly and carried on with her journey but suddenly the cat wispered into Lilith's ear. "Turn left."

Lilith was suprised that her cat could talk but did as Gildra said. While walking she asked. "How can you be talking kitty?"

Gildra purred. "I can't talk, you can just understand me. You can talk cat."

Lilith gave her cat a -are you serious look- but her kitten just nodded.
