What do we do now

Chapter Five: New Name

After Severus heard Harry say that he was his Daddy the tears began streaming down his

face.

Harry turned to face his father and put his small

hands on his cheeks. < I will take care of you. >

Severus started laughing, < I thought that was my job, after all I am the grown up.>

Harry smiled and snuggled into his father\'s robes feeling safe and secure for the first time

in his life. His eyes slowly drifted shut and his breathingned ned out. Harry was asleep.

Severus noticed that his son had fallen asleep and carefully folded the blankets down on

the bed.

He laid the small sleeping boy down and tucked him in. Before leaving he brushed a

small kiss on his forehead and walked out of the room.

When Severus walked out of the room he wasn\'t surprised to see Albus sitting in the

recliner beside the fire. That was the chair that he always sat in when he wanted to talk to

him.

Albus looked up at the man who had walked into the room and sat down on the couch

across from him. \" I see that you were able to get young Harry back to sleep.\"

\" I tried to explain things to him as best as I could. I think that he understood everything.\"

He sighed and let his head rest in his hands. \" I told him in a round about way what had

happened to Lily and why they were living with James. After I told him that his \'father\'

was still alive, he asked me if the reason he had to live with his aunt and uncle was

because his \'father\' didn\'t want him or love him anymore. I told him that his \'father\' loved

him more than life itself and he looked straight at me and said \'You\'re my Daddy\'.\" Tears

starstarted streaming down his face again and he tried to furiously swipe them away. \" I

never thought that I would get to hear my son call me Daddy.\"

Albus watched Severus reaching out his hand he laid it across the younger mans. \" I can

see how much this means to you and I am truly sorry that I couldn\'t give you Harry when

you first brought him here that night. I wish that I could have been more of a help.\" He

said sadly. \" Now, what I needed to talk to you about was how you wanted to go about

informing the staff of your son. We also need to figure out how Harry is going to learn

magic, especially when he can\'t say the incantations or hear how they are supposed to be

said.\"

Severus sat there for a few moments before he said anything. \"I think that the first thing

that we need to do is change his name back to what it was supposed to be. And then we

can tell the rest of the staff.\" He sat back wondering how his colleagues would take the

news that there savior was the offspring of their ruthless potions professor.

\"What is your son’s actual name? I only knew the name that Lily and James had come up

with.\" Albus asked wondering how the staff was going to take this revelation about the

boy known as \'Harry James Potter\'.

Severus looked at the aged wizard and with a wide smile across his face he said proudly,

\" My sons name is Daylan Alexander Snape.\"
