Irish Melody

\"Severus get dressed!!!\" Isibeal threw a clean black shirt at him, as he rolled onto his stomach.
\"Come on why?\"
\"I told you, we are going to see my mother. I need her to meet you. Now stop dawdling..shower and dress!\" Isibeal, walked into the closet and then back out again. Staring at herself in the mirror.
\"Thats a lovely outfit.\" She threw her hands up in the air.
\"How would you know?\" She yelled from the closet. It was April and all the kids had a short spring recess. While the kids were gone, the two stayed in Isibeals room, by her chocie. She felt the dungeon lacked some livelihood for her liking. So with a pile of his dirty clothes in her hamper, all mixed up with her dirty clothes. The rest of his things hanging next to hers in the closet. The way it looked in that room, was simply too people who lived together. She walked back out to the bedroom, wrapped in her towel.
\"Now that..is perfect. Wear that to the hospital.\" Severus smiled, as Isibeal let one side slip down alittle revealing the tops of her breasts. She giggled, and sat on his lap.
\"Severus, why are you so good to me?\"
\"I\'m not that good, to you.\" He smiled and pushed her damp hair behind her ears.
\"Come on, i\'m being serious. What did i do to deserve you?\"
\"I ask myself that question everyday.\" Severus kissed Isbeal\'s nose. She laughed and got back up. She changed into a pair of underwear, which she coyly pulled up keeping her towel on. Then she took off the towel and put on a light purple bra. As she walked back to the closet, she would stop and pick up the clothes all over the floor, throwing them into the laundry basket.
\"Okay, so in five minutes i will be dressed, and made-up ready to go. You will be, still in bed. Please Severus this means alot to me.\"
\"I know. Why do you want me to come along and cock everything up?\" Isibeal walked back out, straightening her blue button up shirt, then tugged gently at her tan courdoroy skirt.
\"Severus...You won\'t do anything of the sort. you are a very well mannered individual. And i know you are just trying to get out of this!\" Isibeal stood infront of the bed, holding out a pair of black slacks, and black shirt. Severus sat up, his greenish black silk pajamas shimmered in the early light of day. Isibeal, turned to go use the bathroom to wash her face and put on make-up. Severus still wasn\'t comfortable being totally himself with Isibeal, after all this time she had yet to see him completely naked. She\'d never seen him with his shirt off. As she stood with her back against the bathroom door, looking at her makeup. She was tempted to open the door, suprise him, but she knew how angry that would make him. So she waited... closed her eyes, wishing she could just hold his flesh against her flesh. For some one who was used to being able to get men undressed easily..this one was a very difficult sale. Severus knocked on the door.
\"Alright, i\'m dressed come on out.\" She opened the door, and wrapped her arms around him, burying her head against his chest.\"Are you alright?\"
\"Yes, i\'m fine..Good..let\'s go.\" They got into a coach outside the castle gates, Isibeal nervously bit at her finger nails.
\"Come now.\" Severus placed his hands over Isibeals. She felt her hands shake under his, she was nervous beyond control. \"Listen Isibeal, the Mediwitches says your mother is very well off at the institution.\"
\"Severus, you know i hate that word.\"
\"Yes, sorry...\" She leaned back, and closed her eyes. She wrapped her gloved hand around Severus\'s he pulled away then relinquished his hand to hers. Despite his distaste for public displays of affection, he understood her need for it at that moment. As the coach slowed down, Severus opened the door, stepped out then gave his hand to help Isibeal out. Her face was bright, and a large fake smile was plastered on to it. \" Isibeal, you know your mother will see straight through that smile.\" Isibeal looked at him, and let her red plump lips curl into a smirk.
They walked down a long corridor, to a room, where a young witch was being thrown out.
\"Do not try to shove that slop down my throat!\" The strong irish voice resonated down the hallway. \"Now get out get me a decent Haggus, or else it\'ll be you floating on the ceiling not the damn candy you bring me!\"
\"Momma!\" Isibeal went running into the room, throwing her arms carelessly around the woman, stationed upright in her bed. Her mother smiled, and hugged her dear daughter.
\"M\'wee Irish PrIncess, how are you?\"
\"I\'m happy, i\'m very happy.\"
\"Good, now tell me how is our tutor, Mr. Snape? The wonderful wizard who placed your mother in this great place. Did i tell you daily i have this very attractive Mediwizard look at my chest.\"
\"It\'s his job mom.\" She laughed. \"I actually brought him, today. He wants to meet you.\" Isibeal smiled, and walked back towards the door. She could smell Severus\'s attempt to wear cologne. She grabbed his arm, and pulled him into the room. \"Severus Snape, this is my mother Maeb McOugh.\"
\"Pleasure to meet you Mr. Snape, Isibeal says nothing but the most wonderful things about you.\" Maeb smiled at the tall braod man, who carried himself in a very unpleasant manner.
\"Thank you ma\'am.\" He gave her a head nod. \"Would you two care for some butterbeers?\"
\"Yes please, thank you Severus.\" Isibeal smiled at him, biting on her lip in hopes of his immediate love for her mother. He smiled back, and then looked down immediately turning and leaving the room.
\"Isibeal, do you think it is wise to carry on such a relationship, with your teacher, and mentor?\" Isibeal took a seat next to her mother.
\"What do you mean momma?\" She titied around the bed.
\"I can see your emotions in your eyes Isibeal. Do not fall in love with some one who can not love you whole heartily.\" Maeb, took a sip of water, before palcing her hands on Isibeals. \"It may seem perfect, but remember men aren\'t always what they seem.\"
\"I don\'t expect Severus to get down on his knees and propose marriage to me. I don\'t even expect him to tell me he loves daily. I just like being with him, knowing that i can help him. I don\'t want him to change i like the mean, nasty, git he is, because he is the most caring man ever.\" Isibeal smiled, she wanted her mother to believe her wholly.
\"Then why have you two yet to consumate?\"
\"Mother!!\"
\"I can see it in your eyes, there is a longing for something. Remember there are always reasons why some one doesn\'t want you to touch them.\" Maeb grew quiet as Severus walked back into the room.\"Now Severus, you are a potion\'s master at Hogwart\'s? I was once a Charm\'s master. Tell me what do you find more difficult, trying to give your students passion for a subject they will never like, or just teaching something awful?\" Severus got an awful frown, he didn\'t want to say anything to upset Isibeal, yett his insides burned with fury. Just then Maeb started to laugh hystericaly.
\"Come on Severus, I\'m only kidding. Potions is very important. I have a second masters in it. Just not the subject i wanted our dear little Isibeal to study. Then again she was always covering for her sickly mother to be concern with that.\" Isibeal, frowned but held tight to her mothers hand. She felt the wave of guilt rush her body, her mother always had a way of doing that.
\"Yes well, alot of the different fields of magic have different difficulties and whatnot. It is understandable that you wouldn\'t want to expose some one who would just rather better herself, then fall into the same position as her family, to actually study more afraid of losing your control.\" Severus stood, and walked towards the door. \"I have a meeting at Hogwart\'s, i will be hoping to leave in about ten minutes Isibeal, if you would kindly meet me at the coach. I am going to go check and make sure he is still here. It was a pleasure to meet you Ms. McOugh. Goodbye.\"
\"Goodbye Mr. Snape.\" Maeb was short, and gave a look of disapproval. Isibeal stood and hugged her mother.
\"I do not like him. He looks down on your family, and who you are.\"
\"I don\'t think he does. He just.. he wants me to be the best witch i can. And without you i wouldn\'t be a witch at all. So both of you deserve respect for getting me here, where i am today. He just doesn\'t understand that you were doing what was best for me..\" Isibeal mumbled that out, then turned and picked up her coat. \"I love you momma, and you\'ll always be number one in my heart. I know you love me.\"
\"Of course i do darling. I want whats best for you. That is why i do not want you and Severus together anymore.. If you love mommy, you will end your time with him.\"
\"I can\'t..\"
\"You do not love mommy?\"
\"I do, but i need Severus, he takes care of me.\"
\"Well you move back home, and take me from here, and mommy can take care of you. Like i always should have.\"
\"Momma... it doesn\'t work that way. I need Severus, I need him near me he makes.. he makes me feel like a i always should have.\"
\"Isibeal, if you do not end your relationship. Then you are ending ours, can\'t you clearly see what he is?\"
\"What is he momma?\"
\"He\'s a Death Eater! I could smell it a mile away!!!\"
\"Take that back mom!\"
\"Don\'t believe me, thena sk him! Prove it to me darling! You\'ll be back, and i\'ll pick up the pieces!\" Isibeal, turned and ran down the hall. She met Severus outside he helped her into the coach, and that was the last time they touched until her helped her out, all throughout the ride she kept her distance. Trying to hold abck the onslaught of tears he mother caused.
\"Okay, well i see back at your room, after my meeting?\" He said to her as they walked into the building, she nodded her head and walked away.
