My Favorite
The children had asked quite politely to be allowed to have their own space for the duration of the party. Harry had agreed as the older children were certainly mature enough to insure the good behavior of the youngsters. Harry and the other adults had, in light of the pouring rain, allowed them to use the library for their own party.
As Harry walked through the house to the retrieve additional drinks for his guests he was surprised to hear, not the children, but the voice of Severus Snape. Since his break-up with the children’s mother he had been seeing more and more of the acerbic man. He stopped to listen, but could only hear the quiet voice not the words.
Harry was not sure want to make of this and was about to open the door when the children whooped and shouted before he heard the unmistakable voice of his ten year old daughter saying, “This one was always my favorite. Will you please read it next, Uncle Severus?”
Harry couldn’t help smiling at the words he could now hear in his mind when the rich velvet voice started reading again. Severus’ tone changing, as though he were talking, arguing with himself. One moment lilting in cajoling enticement to the eat green eggs and ham, the next switching to sneering contempt and denial of any wish to acquiesce to the indomitable will of Sam I am.
