Don't own, Don't make any money, Don't care if you like it.

When Severus, Harry and Sari apparated into the living room they were greeted by a squeal. "Master Snape has guests. Has been long time. Yes long time indeed. What can Liggy get master Severus?" the house elf said. Liggy dinner for three, we will take it in the small dining room.

After a dinner of steak and mashed potatoes for Harry and Severus, and Mac-and-cheese with hamburger for Sari, Harry made a makeshift bed for Sari on the chair as Severus grabbed them glasses of fire whisky. coming back Severus saw that Harry was sitting against one of the arms of the sofa. hesitating he decided to sit n the middle instead of at the other end. Handing Harry the glass he looked over at the sleeping form of his daughter.

Wow I really fucked up. she is beautiful.

he thought shifting his gaze to Harry. How did I mess this up...oh ya I was an insensitive selfish prick like I normally am.Harry turned to meet his gaze.

Severus went to open his mouth to say something when Harry stood up and walked over to Sari placing a one way silencing bubble over her so he would know if she needed something but she wouldn't hear him or Severus. Severus stood up and started to walk towards Harry.

What he definitely wasn't expecting was a fist to make contact with his nose. Stumbling backwards he clutched his bleeding nose and looked up to see a fuming mad harry with his hands clenched at his sides.

"OW what the hell was that for?" Severus asked.

"That was for cheating on me with Sirius. This..." Harry said giving a swift kick to Severus' stomach "was for doing it when i was pregnant. And this..." Harry kicked him in the thigh. "was for leaving me to raise a child on my own with no help."

It seemed like Harry had run out of steam because he collapsed in to a ball on the floor. "Why Severus? Why him? Why then? Why? why...why..." Harry whispered to the floor.

Severus took one of the healing potions he always had on him. Sitting on the floor in front of Harry he just sat there. "Harry i can honestly say i don't know why. He came in to my rooms to tell me to stay away from you...then it just sort of happened...I'm so sorry"

He reached out and touched Harry's cheek. Harry just shook it off and looked away. Severus let his hand drop.

"I know i messed up. I really want to make this better. I don't...i don't have an excuse for what happened. After you left I...I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat. I started drinking, Albus got really worried. He put me on a mandatory year break." Severus said.

"If you think that you can come to me after all these years and make me feel sorry for you then you have another thing coming to you..." Harry started to yell.

"Harry...Harry...HARRY!" He yelled. Harry stopped and looked at him.

"What!" Harry yelled back.

"Let me court you." He said

"Let you what?"

"Let me court you. It means let me make it up to you and prove to you that i can be trusted."

"Why should I?"

"I love you. I love you so much. I want you back in my life. Please." Severus said dropping his mask and letting Harry see the truth in his eyes.

Harry got up silently, walked over to Sari and took the silencing charm off. Picking her up he walked past a crushed looking Severus. Putting his hand on the doorknob Harry looked over to Severus who had followed him to the door.

"Thursday, 3:00, The Old Thatch Tavern in Stratford-Upon-Avon...Don't be late" Harry said before he opened the door. If any of Severus' old students saw him at that moment they would of had a heart attack. He was smiling at Harry as they apparated away. Closing the door he walked back to the couch and picked up the bottle of scotch. after a moment of thought he walked to the kitchen and poured it upside down in the sink.

THE END...or is it. i may decide to continue, but if no one reads it then it won't be worth it. Plus my muse has died.
