It had been a few days since you found out your father was none other than Severus Snape himself. You didn't tell anyone, not bringing yourself to say it to anyone.

Ron had noticed you were acting weird, too distracted, and zoned out. Then Hermione noticed, then Harry, then Fred, and then George and Ginny.

"Hey." You heard someone say next to you as you sat at the Gryffindor table, playing with your feather.

"Oh, Neville. Hey." You said, smiling at him when he sat down beside you. "People have been noticing you are quite off. By people, I mean your friends." He said shyly.

You sighed, nodding your head. "It's obvious, isn't it? My mind is too full of things. I need a break." You sighed, placing your feather down on the book.

"Maybe you can try talking to Dumbledore. Or one of your friends?" He suggested, smiling widely at you.

You stared at Neville deeply, wondering if to ask him. You suddenly turned so that your body was facing him while sitting on the bench.

"Neville, if you found out recently who your father is after spending years of not knowing, what would you do?" You asked.

Neville was caught by surprise, making him stutter words out as he was unable to think of something. With a sigh, you turned back to your book.

"Nevermind. Sorry, Neville." You said softly, leaning your head on your hand. "If I had learned that recently, I would spend as much time as I can with him." He replied after a few seconds of silence.

You slowly looked at him before looking at the entrance of the Great Hall, seeing Ron, Hermione, and Harry walk in while talking to each other.

You smiled at Neville, nodding your head. "Thank you, Neville." You said, quickly gathering your stuff and getting up.

With a sprint, you went towards the trio, stopping in front of them. Hermione smiled at the sight of you there, "Y/n. I was looking for yo-" You cut her off.

"I need to speak with you. It's important and it can't wait." You said quickly, walking past them. "Wait!" Ron exclaimed, heading after you while Hermione and Harry followed after.

"He is what?" Ron asked in disbelief, staring at you in complete shock. "I could see it honestly. Your eyes and hair remind me of him." Hermione replied as she pointed out your features.

"Wait. So Professor Snape is your father?" Harry asked in confusion, glancing at Hermione who rolled her eyes.

"I swear, you two have the minuscule brain of a rat. Yes! Her father is Severus Snape!" She exclaimed, shaking her head.

You chuckled softly at her, glancing at Harry. "This doesn't change our friendship, right?" You asked in worry.

Harry's hands took yours in his, giving them a sweet squeeze. "Of course not. You're still my friend." Harry replied, smiling sweetly at you.

You caught a glimpse of a mischievous smile on Hermione's lips, making you pull away shyly.

"So, what does this mean then?" Ron asked after a bit of silence. You looked down at your hands, sighing softly.

"It means it's time that I get some time alone with my father and learn more of the truth. He can't hide it from me for longer." You said.

"Well, we need to head to the common room and study. We will see you later, right boys?" Hermione said, pulling Ron and Harry up by the ear.

They winced and whined, saying 'okay' repeatedly as you watched and laughed. Once they were gone, you got up and headed back inside the castle, heading to the potions class.

On the way there, you bumped into Draco who was spying on someone, his back towards you. "Draco, what-" "Shh!" He quickly said, covering your mouth and pressing your back against the pillar.

You stared at him with wide eyes while he stared back, lips parted and panting. "Dumbledore, my son would never do such a thing," Lucius said.

"Well, Lucius. It seems that your son has been spying on a student. A certain student whose name is Y/n. I can't tolerate that." Dumbledore said.

"They are meant to know their secrets, they will spend a future together-" Dumbledore stopped Lucius midway by lifting his hand.

"That doesn't mean that they should know all their secrets. Nobody likes someone who is an open book. Some secrecy doesn't hurt anybody." Dumbledore said.

You stared at Draco with a feeling of hurt and betrayal. You were close to him but it didn't mean that he had to go and invade your privacy.

He was nobody to know everything about you. You pushed him away, stomping your way away from him. "Y/n, wait!" He said after beginning to follow you.

"Leave me alone, you betraying cockroach!" You exclaimed back, squealing when he grabbed your hand and made you face him.

"You were hiding things from me! I thought we trusted each other!" He spat back. "Even if we trusted each other, it doesn't give you any right to follow me and spy on me!" You shouted.

"We are supposed to be together in this!" He shouted back. You managed to snatch your arm away from his grip.

"Yes! We are supposed to be together in this by our own choice and however we want to! It doesn't mean we have to mingle in each other's secrets and privacy to be close!" You exclaimed back.

"You wanna know my secrets?! Fine! Severus Snape is my father!" You said, beginning to take your bandage off.

"This happened to me last week. Some man came and cut my skin open to write this on my arm!" You sobbed, extending your arm towards him so he could see it.

"These are my secrets. Are you happy now?" You whispered.
