>Third Person<
A few weeks later and it was already August 27th. Severus planned that Sarah should buy some new school supplies, and bring her to Diagon Alley. Rose & Albus all told Sarah that they were going there the same day, and said they'll all meet at the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes during 5:00pm. Sarah was pleased when she heard they were going to stay at the inn for the night.

"How are we going to get there?" Sarah asked as she pulled on her robes, then brushed her hair. "Floo Powder. Now go to the fire place and grab some powder. Do you know how to use it?" Severus said as Sarah took a handful in her hand. "Yes." and threw the powder to the feet, shouting "Diagon Alley!" she dissapeared. She landed on the floo network of Diagon Alley and stepped aside. Green flames appeared and her father came in, brushing his robes since it caught some dust. "You got something in your cheek," Severus said as he wiped it off, Sarah laughed as she tried to smack his arm away.

"Where should we start?" Sarah asked, Severus looked around and answered: "Flourish and Botts."

They both walked in the store, and Sarah saw Scorpius, upstairs watching his father talk to someone as he played with a book. "Hey, Sarah!" Scorpius shouted from above and slid down. "Scorpius-" Draco Malfoy shouted but his wife tugged his arm and motioned him to stop, "let Scorpius play with his friends for awhile." And entered a room. "Hi Scorpius." Sarah greeted, as Severus walked around, meeting another wizard he knew.

"So, had a nice summer so far?" he asked, she nodded eagerly. "Yup. You?" she asked, "not much. My grandad returned and has being eyeing me like a hawk, so I spent time in my room." he answered her, making Sarah laugh. "So... Does your parents know 'bout... You know... Rose?" Sarah whispered over his right shoulder. "No. Glad not. Dad'll be furious I date a Weasley and a Granger. But does your dad know about Albus?" Scorpius whispered back. "What?!" Sarah screamed, smacking a book at his shoulder, Scorpius rolled his eyes, but left as his father called him.

"I never knew you and Malfoy were friends..." a voice said from behind, she turned around only to see her father carrying a large bag. "I've purchased your books. You've been too chatty with Malfoy, I thought to do it for you." he said, making her smile. "Thanks." she said as they both walked out.

After hours of buying, Sarah stopped. "Dad, can we go to Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, please? My friends told me we'll meet there." Sarah requested, he rolled his eyes and nodded.

As the door opened a bell at the door rang. "Hi!" Rose greeted as Sarah smiled at them. Severus leaned to Sarah's shoulder and whispered: "I'll be with a friend at The Leaky Cauldron if you need me." then walked out of the store. "Git, never changed hasn't he?" a man with orange-hair stepped out,

"Uncle George! It's my friend, Sarah Lily Snape." Rose said, Sarah smiled at him, but George's eyes widened. "He has a daughter?! Well, don't tell him I called him a git, will you?" he said sheepishly, Sarah laughed and nodded making him sigh in relief.

"So you're his daughter?" George asked as she sat down, they were at the highest floor of the building, where there is a private room for some visitors. "Yes." she answered quietly, "wait... weren't you one of the ones who invented the Puking Pastilles?" Sarah added all of a sudden. "Yes, I was one of them..."

"Thanks! I managed to get out of Professor Binn's class after I forgot my homework." Sarah said, but a hand slicked her on the shoulder. "Albus. I know it's you." Sarah said as Albus laughed hysterically. "You haven't seen her prank yet. Even friends with Peeves!" Albus said, making everyone laugh.

They talked for minutes when George brought out a large trunk. "Whats that?" Rose asked, George smiled devishly and flipped the latch open. Inside there were multiple bottles and other stuff. "These, are some for free for you little pranksters. Now, each has a different thing thats labeled and you get to bring it to Hogwarts. Oh, and Sarah! Don't forget to say hi for me to Peeves." George said as he tossed a bag to each of them. "Yes!" Albus said as he opened his. "Amorentia?" Rose asked as she held a heart-shaped bottle, "Love Potion." Sarah said, remembering how she saw a potion like that for the first time, and as she opened the cap of the bottle and took a sniff.

As they all seperated ways, Sarah skipped to the Three Broomsticks, to find her father talking with a long-white-haired man with a skull-shaped cane. "Sarah, can you meet me at the inn? I'll be there within an hour." Severus said, Sarah nodded and headed for the inn. As she got there, she stared out of the window. But she thought she saw someone run past the window, carrying something that glowed.

"Sarah?" a voice asked, Severus came in with a mug of Butterbeer. "Here." She said as he handed her one. "Thanks." and she gulped it down, but Sarah still thought of what the stranger was carrying. "Wait. Did I get you a present during Christmas?" Severus asked, Sarah tilted her head trying to remember. "I guess..." she said and sat on the bed beside him. "Well, what if we go to the store tomorrow. I'm gonna buy you something." Severus said, reaching for the cup and taking a little sip. "No! It's alright! I-"

"We're gonna go tomorrow. Trust me, you'll love it."
