Little Miss Snape

Snape carried her into his chambers and sat down, holding her on his
lap. His thumb gently brushed away her tears. \"Now sweetheart,\" he
paused, wondering where THAT one had come from as well! \"Do you know
what a spanking is?\" May shook her head no. \"A spanking is very
different from what your father did. What your father did is called
abuse.\" He watched her face, noting that she still looked
confused. \"To hit here,\" he gently touched her face. \"Or here, or
here,\" he indicated her legs and back. \"Is wrong. Your father was
wrong to do that. What I am going to do is called a spanking, and I\'m
going to do it on your behind. It will hurt just a little bit, but it
won\'t turn black or blue, or leave owies, alright?\" She shrugged and
he hugged her close.

\"Sweetheart, I\'m going to spank you because I.....love you,\" he
stumbled over the words. May looked at him in surprise. \"Really?\" she
asked softly. He nodded. \"Really. And I want to teach you to do the
right things and not things that are bad or might hurt you. A
spanking is supposed to hurt a little bit, but not for very long and
only on your bottom.\" May shrugged, not really sure what to make of
what he was saying. She started to play with the buttons on his shirt
and Snape couldn\'t help but smile. \"I ask question, yes?\" May
wondered softly. \"Of course,\" Snape assured her. \"You do this?\" she
asked very quietly, pointing to his belt. A surge of empathy went
through him and he couldn\'t help but plant a kiss on her
forehead. \"No honey, just my hand. I would never hurt you like your
father.\" May nodded. \"I do what?\" Snape hugged her again. \"Just
remember that I love you, alright?\" She nodded again and Snape
carefully laid her face down over his lap.

May was sniffling already as he lifted her nightgown and pulled her
underwear down. For a moment, it seriously crossed his mind to not
spank her, but Snape decided that he had too. She needed to learn and
he was the one who had to teach her. He took a deep breath and
brought his hand down on her behind. May gasped and started wiggling.
Snape felt horrible; his hand had covered her entire bottom, which
was now slightly pink with his hand print. He raised his hand again
and brought it down with a SMACK. May\'s little legs began to kick and
Snape could hear her start to cry. He gave her four more spanks,
making it an even half dozen, then quickly turned her over and hugged
her.

May cried on his shoulder for a few moments and Snape rubbed her
back, rocking her gently. He felt like the biggest jerk ever. She
finally dried her face on part of his robe e hee he pulled her
underwear back up and put her nightgown back down. \"Is done?\" May
asked softly. Snape nodded. \"All forgiven now,\" he assured her. May
looked surprised, but reached around to rub her bottom and said
something in Russian. \"What honey?\" Snape asked. \"Hurt, but no bad
hurt like father,\" she told him. \"You.... you love me?\" Snape gave
her a genuine smile and nodded. \"Very much.\" May smiled and kissed
his face. \"Love you,\" she whispered, then shyly hid her face against
his neck. Snape rubbed her back... it seemed she understood after all!

Snape cuddled her for several minutes, then there was a knock on the
door. Still holding May, he got up to answer it. \"Is she okay?\"
Hermione asked worriedly. May popped her head up and smiled at
Hermione. \"He love me,\" she told Hermione brightly. Hermione
laughed. \"Apparently my doubts were misplaced,\" she stated. \"It went
better then I thought it would,\" he told her. \"I too con concerned.\"
He turned to look at May. \"Are you going to take anymore wands
Mashka?\" She shook her head no. \"And why not?\" \"Is no good, then my
bottom hurts cuz you love me,\" she replied shyly. Snape kissed her
forehead. \"That\'s a good girl. You go get dressed.\" He set her down
and she ran off to her room.

She returned a few minutes later wearing a red sundress that was
inside out and holding a brush and a red ribbon. \"You braid, please?\"
she asked, holding the items out to Snape. \"I\'m afraid I don\'t know
how,\" he replied. Hermione laughed. \"I can do that. But first, your
dress is inside out sweetums. Would you like some help?\" May nodded
and Hermione sat down and pulled the little girl over to her, giving
her a hug. \"You are too cute,\" Hermione said as she helped May right
her sundress. May giggled, smiling brightly. The little girl was
gently placed on Hermione\'s lap and her hair brushed and braided. \"Me
pretty?\" May asked, twirling in front of the adults. Snape nodded;
Hermionee hie him a look. \"Beautiful,\" he said, catching onto the
meaning of the look.

May bounced around them both, then went over to Snape and practically
glued herself to his leg. He attempted to walk, with her still on his
leg, which made her giggle. \"Let\'s find something to entertain you
with today, so you don\'t get in more trouble,\" Hermione suggested.
May grabbed onto Snape\'s hand and tried to pull him from the room
after Hermione. \"This will be easier,\" Snape said, ing ing her up and
settling her on his hip. She said something in Russian, then blushed
and buried her head in his shoulder. Snape sighed and carried her
into her room to look for toys. May giggled to herself, glad Snape
hadn\'t understood. Her words translated to: \"love you new papa\"
