Summary: When the DADA professor quits unexpectedly mid-term, the new professor and his children return to Hogwarts in time for Halloween
Notes: Many thanks to my wonderful beta!
Harry Potter herded his children down the path towards Hagrid's hut, filling his lungs with the clear, crisp air. Returning to Hogwarts felt like coming home and, for him, the perfect place for a new start.
"Can I have another sweet, Daddy?" James' voice sounded whiny, but Harry knew it was because Ginny'd insisted on explaining, again, what divorce meant.
"After we've picked out a pumpkin from Hagrid's patch, Jamie." Harry kept his voice even, stopping as Lily stumbled and fell. "Hold onto your brother's hand, Al."
Lily's face crumpled and Harry kissed her knee, carrying her the rest of the way.
"Daddy! This one!"
Harry rounded the corner to find James sitting on the biggest pumpkin in the patch. He looked around frantically. "James! Where is Al?"
James was startled. "I dunno, Daddy."
"Albus thought a walk in the woods might be enjoyable." Severus Snape appeared, carrying a grinning Al.
"Severus!" Relief flooded through Harry. "Thank-"
"Ginevra has taken her leave?" Severus' eyes watched him intently.
"Yes," Harry said, swallowing hard. He'd never gotten over his crush on his Half?blood Prince.
"Then, perhaps, I might join you and the children for Halloween?"
"I'd like that."
The children cheered.
