Half Blood (Closed)

He thought hard. Well, I'm glad that the magic won't affect the child. It is just upsetting that we know Cedric will die, when, and at whose hands, but we can't stop it. We can't protect him, warning him will ensure it, we're sitting ducks. he explained her mentally. Severus hoped that, when he died, he would be ale to kneothat Peter Pettigrew was dead, the son of a bitch!
 
She nodded "It's torture to know what I know and unable to do anything about it, I just want to break all the damn rules to save the kid. But alas I never would, because even I know much would happen if I did that. Professor Moody may end up dead, Voldemort finding out we are married with a child. I am just so tired of being careful, I just wish I could end it all you know. Save everyone and to bring peace to all of us, but I guess it's just a childish dream"
 
He grinned. Its not childish! I'm a part of that dream! I will die so that dream shall be fulfilled, and my child can grow up in a world without Voldemort. He finished grading the papers, and saw that, as usual, Miss Granger had finished the work and was on the homework.
 
She crossed her arms "Don't remind me Severus, you know I am going to do my best to keep you alive, even if it goes against every rule in the book. I do not regret marrying you, I am honored to be your wife. But that doesn't mean I'm going to just sit back and let Tom take you out, I will be careful no need to worry about that"
 
He grinned. If you insist. was his only reply. Miss Granger finished the homework as well, so Severus gave her tomorrow's homework to begin. She went back to her desk and began it. Severus turned to Emily and handed her the Verateserum. "Put these in the supply closet please. You know, the one with the password."

OOC: Going to bed. Good night.
 
She took what he handed to her and nodded to him, standing up she walked over to the closet and instead of speaking the password by mouth she said it mentally and the door opened up for her. She put the vials back in the right order, and she looked over to make sure nothing had been taken, and from what she could tell nothing had been. So shutting the door, making sure it was locked she sat back down. "Done, and I made sure nothing was missing" She said happily.
 
He nodded. "Good. Now I'll just check the supply closet contianing water herbs. Cukd you sit here and give students tomorrows homework if there done with all the work?" he asked. Te water herbs were rare, and he wa the only person in the castle who could access that closet. No one else could.
 
She heard his request and she nodded "Of course" While he was off, she gave the kids that were done there homework, watching the kids finishing up there in class work. And she finished giving out the homework, now all the kids were working on there homework. She was sure the kids were grateful that they were having an easier day, she wondered why he was giving them an easier time today, did it have something to do with there marriage?
 
Severus walked out of the classroom and walked to. The water herbs closet. Once he found it, he placed is hand on the lock, and the door opened. He walked in ANC checked all the herbs. He had two gilliweed herbs, and once he checked the gilliweed, he only saw one. He checked the chart again, and it said he has two. He checked the gilliweed again, and only saw one. Everything else was there. He left he closet, locked the door, and went back to the classroom.
 
The room was very quite when she saw Severus coming back to the room, and by the look on his face she knew something was wrong. Must have been missing, she didn't even have access to that closet. Tilting her head a bit she looked over at him. "Severus? Everything okay?"
 
He nodded his head. "Yes,something is wrong. In the loser, there is supposed to be two gilliweed herbs, a rare herb itself. By, there's only one. I think one of the champions stole it. After all, it allows you to breath underwater for sometime, and today's task involves going underwater. It makes sense." he told her. His eye immediately fell on Harry Potter, and he knew that the gilliweed that was stolen was for Harry.
 
She looked at him "Why are you always so damn hard on the boy? There are other champions that are going to be doing this as well" She sighed a bit. Standing up she looked at her husband. "The proper question would be how the hell did he get in? I don't even have access to the herbs" She said simply crossing her arms she sat back in her seat and the bell rang for class to be dismissed.
 
He thought for a moment. "Well oly me and the kitchen elves have access to the herbs. But none of the kitchen elves would steal something, they are all free. They would have to do it willingly." he told her. He didn't know any elf who would steal willingly, for none of them would. Unless it was to help a friend, but none of the elves would... unless it was Dobby!
 
She smiled at him and nodded a bit "Well I don't think Harry would ask Dobby to steal I honestly think that if the herbs were for Harry he would be shocked. Harry doesn't seem to be the kid that would steal things. Have faith in the kid Severus because pretty soon a lot of responsibility will be thrown onto the boys shoulders." She sighed a bit resting her hand over her stomach.
 
He grinned. "Well, tis isn't the first time herbs have been missing. For instance, two years ago all the ingredients for Polyjuice Poton were stolen, and I am positive it was because of him and his friends, buti just don't have any solid evidence." he informed her. Since the class was over, there was 1 hour until lunch, and Severus and Emily had a break until lunch. "So, what do you want to do for one hour?" he asked her.
 
She chuckled at him and rolled her eyes at him grinning happily and shrugged "Look at it this way Harry is a smart kid. He is willing to do what has to be done to succeed much like me and much like you" She said softly. Thinking for a moment "Well we could always have some alone time Severus, times we have our conversations I treasure them" She said happily. "A chat over tea perhaps?"
 
He grinned. "Sure, why not?" he stood up, extending his arm. He knew the perfect place for tea. There was this nice place in Hogsmeade where you could rent a room for a bit and they had the best tea there. "I know this place in Hogsmeade that has the best tea around. Wanna go there?" he asked.
 
She smiled as she took his arm and nodded to what he said "Sure sounds lovely" She said happily and knew that she had yet to be able to travel like he could, but figured he would show her some time. Smiling happily at him, she really do love Severus. Was almost hard to breath sometimes when his death played on her mind, but didn't tell him all the times she dreamed that kind of dream.
 
Severus walked out with her into the hall. He knew the main way to Hogsmeade, uthe decided to take the secret passage there. He knew that some students, mainly the Weasley twins, knew of the passage, but it didn't bother Severus. He found the passage and opened it up. "Ladies first." he said, grinning.
 
She smiled and was surprised "A secret passage, anything else about Hogwarts I don't know?" She chuckled and walked into it, thinking for a moment. "I know about the chamber of secrets but a place this old has to have a lot of stories and secrets" She held his hand and was happy when they could show signs of affection towards each other.
 
He smiled, but she couldn't see it since they were in the darkness of the tunnel. He took out his wand. "Lumos" and immediately the tunnel filled with light. They walked forward for a little while, and than Severus opened the trapdoor at the end of the tunnel, leading into a candy shop. He jumped out onto the floor and grabbed Eily's arms, hoisting her up.
 
She followed him and watched how he moved so easily, reaching up to him as he helped her up. She smiled at him "Thank you" She could smell the sweets and it made her a bit hungry. "Wow, haven't been in a candy shop since I was a kid." She brushed some hair out of her eyes as she made note to where the trap door was so she could get back here if need be.
 
He grinned. "I could buy some candy if you would like." he told her. He took out some Knuts from his pocket. They stood, and Severus turned off the light on his wand. Severus walked to the counter, prepared to buy some candy. "What would you like?" he asked her.
 
Since she was pregnant she had a bad sweet tooth which she never exposed till now, she pointed out a couple delicious looking chocolates that she wanted, the woman at the counter filled up a bag and gave it to her. She thanked the shop keeper and smiled at Severus "Thanks for this Severus, your really sweet and who would have guessed" She said happily and looked outside the window seeing a lot of people out there.
 
Severus handed the woman at the counter the appropriate amount of Knuts and followed Emily. He saw all the people outside, obviously talking about the Tournament. He saw Emily eat the chocolates, and knew she was just craving, it was normal. "While we here, wanna try some butter beer?" he asked her.
