Morning Has Broken...

Soft kisses trailed down her throat, her chest and over her breasts. He took his time caressing them, enjoying their softness. He played with her nipples and was glad to hear her moan. His butterfly kisses covered her stomach; he couldn’t resist licking her bellybutton. She giggled helplessly. The cover slid back, and he saw silvery lines where the skin had been stretched.

He traced them with trembling fingers. “Hermione,” he whispered. “Do we…?” His voice faltered. He looked down, unable to speak anymore.

She reached out to gently turn his chin. “Yes, love, you are a father. His name is Sebastian, he is almost two years old.”

Severus let his head sink down to her stomach. He was overwhelmed. Not long ago he was convinced that he would never have a loving wife, and now here she was. And he had a family!

He shuddered involuntarily. A family means the danger of being vulnerable. He knew he couldn’t bear to lose her. He whispered, “He must be out of his mind, worrying about you!”

It was the first time he referred to his future self.

Hermione’s hand gently caressed his hair. “I don’t think so. He knows that I am with you. And since you are him, he knows perfectly well that you love me.”

He pressed a gentle kiss down the lines on her belly and sat up to face her. “But you have to return to him.” An ice cold hand grabbed his heart, and the fear of losing her almost overwhelmed him.

“Yes, and I am afraid, you will have to wait for me for quite some time.” She squeezed his hand. “But you will tread dangerous paths, and you would be vulnerable to your fellow Death Eaters if you had a family at that time. It is of utmost importance that you keep your contacts and feign further loyalty to their cause.”

“I can’t!” he exclaimed. “How can I return and humble myself to somebody who poses a threat to you?”

“Because without you in his inner circle when he returns, I won’t have a fighting chance to live.”

He hung his head and tried to fight against the rising fear in his heart that the battled darkness certainly wasn’t bowed.

I feel bad for missing all of those updates. I started reading books so I wasn't coming online like I used to but I am glad to have finished this, I liked it very much, very short and sweet. I like the idea of the Serpent on his headboard of his bed.

Nice way to end it.  Confirming that he's held on so long to find it's true and then knowing he's only got the next 6 years to go through 'til he starts / continues his relationship with her...  I know it can be taken the wrong way, but it's better you ended it this way instead of starting from this point.  ;)  Well done!

That was a nice way to end this.

This part of time turner stories always a strange feeling in me. I can't help but think Snape an old pervert lusting after an 11 year old girl. I don't mind the age difference but NOT until she's 16 or 17. I know writers don't think like that (fortunately) but there's still that strange feeling. So I'm curious as how you'll proceed.

Oh, my.  At least he can be hopeful.

Finally Severus knows what he has fought for and waited so long for is right there before him.  How wonderful it must have been for him to see her looking into his eyes after her sorting.  Only six more years and all his wished will come true.

Thank you for such a great story on the value of patience.

This is a nice insight into Husband!Snape and his love for Hermione.  And he knows there will be another baby to keep Sebastian company.

Thank you for this look at Hermione' and Severus' family life in the present.  Seeing how happy they are and hearing Severus say that “Yes, everything will be alright,” made me smile.  But I know that Past!Snape is having a hard time without his Hermione.

I can't wait to see you next update!  Well done, Shella.

Sweet, but short.  I know it's a drabble, but it is a good one leaving me with wanting more at the end of each chapter.
