Half Blood (Closed)

He smiled, glad she was still like her normal old self. "I doubt it will be next week, probably some time during the Third Task." he corrected her. He heard the water was ready, so he poured it into the teap pot, letting the water soak in the tea. Once it finished, he poured the tea into cups and handed Emily a cup.
 
She smiled taking the cup and sipped it, enjoying the taste. "Show him a thing or two one of these days for that rat. You know I could do a spell on him and make him forever a damn rat, never able to turn back not even by a wand. Only one who could make him human again is the one who castes it" She smirked. "Not wise to piss off a pregnant woman" She giggled a bit trying to make Severus laugh since she loved his laugh.
 
He grinned. He would have laughed, if it had been on a different topic. But, this topic was grim, and left little room for laughter. "I dont think that doing that would be wise. Peter was always just the underdog. He was too weak to stand up for himself and always just joined the more powerful side. But now he is stuck with the Dark Lord for life." he said, trying to defend him. He understood sort of what Peter was going through.
 
She looked at him and was rather surprised "Huh I didn't think you liked him Severus, Peter is the one that is going to kill Cedric" She said simply and thought about it and just went very quite and sipped her drink. Sighing softly she didn't know what was going to happen now. "I am sorry" She said with a kind smile.
 
Severus heard hr remark, and shrugged. "It is hard being in Peter's position. I was sort of in it once." he told her. Qhen he heard her apologize, he frowned. "And sorry for what? All you have said is completely fair, logical, and understandable. I wouldnt be offended in any way." he told her.
 
She sighed a bit and shrugged "I guess everyone was normal once in that group huh? Bella wasn't crazy once and well Lucius was always a dick I know. I know Narcissus is only there because of her husband, though she doesn't have a mark. I know Draco will be a death eater soon enough, just hope that not everyone dies in that group since I do feel sorry for a few in there. But any way sorry I know you hate this kind of talk. So something else" She said and thought about it. "On our last potion test Ive noticed that Ron and Harry are doing much better"
 
He heard her list some Death Eaters, and replied to Bellatrix. "Oh no, she was always crazy." he told her. Then when she got on the topic of potions, he nodded. "They are slowly improving, but they still are below average. However, i think an their O.W.L's, Harry at leastw ill get an average, and Ron, if he gets lucky, will get an average score." he told her.
 
She smiled a bit "has anyone ever failed your class? I don't want anyone failing, and it was a rather fun job that I have" She said happily. "So Hermione told me she was going to help the boys with getting there grades up when ever she has time. She loves Ron so I have a feeling that she will end up getting married to him when she is older" She said and chuckled a bit and sat back crossing one leg over the other.
 
He smiled. "You are probably right. I have noticed that Weasley was jealous when Miss Granger went to the Yule Ball with Krum." he told her. He doubted Ron would ever be good with potions, but Harry still had a chance. "As to your other question, people have failed my potions class, but very few have gotten a Troll in it on the O.W.L's." he told her. He than wanted to start a conversation himself. "So, you going to be my assistant for your whole time here, or do you want to be the potions assistant all the time?" he asked.
 
She nodded and chuckled "Ron will never get the girl if he doesn't speak up" She heard his question and smiled. "No I came here to be your assistant so where ever you go I will follow you, though I do love potions class. But if you were to be professor of lets say deference against dark arts, then I would want to be your assistant to that. Or till you get sick of me being your assistant any way" She said happily and looked at him. "Why are you going to be teaching a different class or you just thinking about the future?"
 
He heard her emark and was glad. "Yeah, just thinking about the future. You know i want to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts. If i ever get it, i was wondering if you would still be my assistant." he explained to her. He knew that, at some point in Albus's plan, he would become headmaster, and Severus couldnt find a way for Emily to be his assitant then.
 
She smiled at him "That would be exciting to get into that, but there is something else isn't there. I really wish that you would tell me the plan that Albus has for you, I would throw "I am your wife, mother of your soon to be born son, so I demand you tell me" But I won't do that to you, I know what is going on is very touchy subject, but if there is anything you can tell me or feel comfortable telling me I wish you would just let me know. But I know Ive said it at least once, But I will say it again. You have my support always, never ever forget that. Even in the bad times okay?"
 
He nodded his head, but still felt an inkling of a doubt. He sighed, knowing there was some stuff he could tell her. "Okay, i shall tell you some things. For one, you are right, if everything goes according to plan, Draco shall become a Death Eater. And, as you know, i will have to become close to the Dark Lord, and i must be prepared to do anything to achieve that. I might have to kill some people, harm some people, they might even make me harm you or harm you infront of my eyes. No doubt the Dark Lord will try to make you become a Death Eater, and you could be horribly treated, possibly raped. If they harm my son, know that I shall immediately protect him, but I might not always be able to do the same for you." he told her.
 
She looked at him and then heard what he told her, looking down she realized now why she would truly be tested. Putting down her empty tea cup she crossed one leg over the other, it was like someone kicked her in the gut. "So that is why you question how loyal I am to you, because of what may happen." Taking a deep breath she looked up to him, looking into his eyes and didn't know what to say. She placed her hand on his and squeezed it "I love you Severus, that will never change. I have a feeling if you were to kill people, I think Voldemort would have you kill Albus, because he is terrified of him. And if I was told to join the Death Eaters, what would you want me to do Severus? I mean to save your life and the life of our son id do anything but. I don't know if I could stand the brand, unless it would be like what happened with Narcissus"
 
Severus thought for a moment, and answered her. "Yes, since they would know you are my wife and everything, it might bi like it is with Narcissa. But probably not. You are so powerful and talented that the Drak Lord would definetly want you as one of his direct seravnts. So, either refuse and become the Death Eaters slaves, for pleasure or just a servant i dont know, or accept and be branded. Those are probably the only options unfortunately." he informed her. He hoped there could be better options, but there couldnt.
 
She thought about this and it bothered her "What would you suggest, take the mark?" deep down she knew that it was a mark she could get rid of. She thought about it for a moment, and rested her head against him. But she wanted his honest opinons, just so if it happened sooner then later that she would know what to do. Looking up into his black eyes, she smiled happily as she felt content that they had this time.
 
He sighed. "The thing is that i dont want you to carry my burden, to have the Mark for the rest of your life. Honestly, I would advise against it. Become their slave, and I can ensure you are treated well. But that is only my advice. Hopefully it wont come down to that." he told her. He drained his tea, but it didnt feel to good. he put it donw on the tabel, thinking hard. He just couldnt figure this out.
 
She smiled at him "I am going to show you something" She took his left arm and pushed up his sleeve exposing his brand, she chanted something and she ran her fingers over the brand and it vanished. But before he could say anything against it, she ran her hand down his arm and it reappeared. "I can remove the brand and I do not mean cover it up, that's why if I have to wear the brand I would do it because I could get rid of it" She said looking at him. "That's why if everything good happens, goes our way I would remove it once Voldemort is dead"
 
Severus was amazed hen the Mark disappeared. Wen she made it Cme back, he put his sleeve back as it was. "Emily, if you can do that, then, if you wish, you can pretend to become a real Death Eater to safeguard yourself. But be warned, you will than be expected to follow all of the Dark Lord's orders, whether you like them or not." he warned her.
 
She sighed a bit and didn't know what to do "It's rather a nasty situation we both will be thrown in, but all in all as long as it kills the son of a bitch I will do what I have to, just the thought of saying yes lord gives me the creeps" She chuckled a bit and sighed and didn't know what to think right now, she just shrugged it off. "Well one day at a time sweet heart" She patted his hand happily thinking for a moment.
 
Upon feeling her hand n his, Severus felt better. "You're right, one day at a time." he said. He gave her lips a quick peck, and than walked over to do some paperwork he still had not filled out yet. He sighed, not really in the mood to do paperwork. But he knew he had to finish it now so he would have the rest of the week off.
 
She smiled and watched him, looking over the paperwork she wondered "What is this for Severus?" Unsure if it had something to do with potions she relaxed a bit and rubbed her stomach as she began to sing to the baby that was kicking her really hard, she sang "hush now my baby be still love don't cry, sleep as your rocked by the see. Sleep and remember my last lullaby so I'll be with you when you dream..." She sang softly and the baby stopped kicking.
 
"Oh, it is noing, just some student papers. Not much." he told her. When he heard her sing the lullaby, he stopped working to listen to it. Wen she finished, he turned to Eily. "Where did you learn that lullaby? It was beautiful." he told her.
 
She smiled up at him and kept rubbing her stomach "it's actually a Jewish song just in English, muggle in America taught it to me, it was pretty sounding so she helped me learn it in English" She said happily and sighed. "Jacob has been kicking the hell out of me for half an hour, so Ive been told that you sing to a baby inside the mother you can calm it"
 
He smiled. "Told you the Jews were an amazing people." he said teasingly. He smiled, glad that Jacob was kicking, that meant he felt he could leave soon. That meant, he was active and ready to see the real world. He smiled, getting back to work, or at least trying to, that song was stuck in his head, but it didn't bother him. He rather enjoyed it.
