HP's Impassable Time

The holidays passed quickly and it was the end of July again, and Lily remembered that it was almost Harry's birthday.

But she was still a little undecided about whether to visit Harry again and celebrate his birthday.

You must know that on Draco's birthday, she also sent a cake to Malfoy Manor, or through an owl, and a magic pattern that would send out fireworks that she had practiced for a long time, and drew it on the greeting card prepared for Draco.

After thinking for a while, Lily decided to go there by herself.

I remember hearing that Harry's relatives didn't like magic when I was in school, and sending it with an owl by myself might cause Harry some trouble. (Lily, who doesn't remember the scene where her father was knocked into the air by Harry, said that she is still very magnanimous)

In the early morning of July 31st, Snape went to Hogwarts and did not come back. Lily used the fastest speed to make a square single-layer cake, covered with chocolate sauce, decorated with fruits, and decorated Chocolate spiral with happy birthday Harry written in white cream.

Skillfully found out a packing box to wrap the cake, Lily went out.

Because she knew the way, it took Lily just over an hour to reach Gate No. [-], Privet Drive this time.

Seeing the courtyard that hadn't changed, Lily rang the doorbell.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man with a chubby face and a blush. His face was well groomed, and his fat belly seemed to be piled out of casual shirts.

He looked at Lily with a smile, and kindly asked her what's the matter?

When Lily said he was looking for Harry, his face became stiff, but he still let Lily enter the house. After Lily entered the house, he looked around the door, as if he was looking for something invisible.

Lily looked at the man's strange behavior strangely, and Lily sat in the living room with a cake.

The living room is not big, and there is a small-screen TV in the corner of the wall. A fat boy is sitting on the sofa and his eyes have been staring at the TV program without moving. This makes Lily wonder if his eyes are open. sleep.

There were various photos of this little fat man on the cabinets around him, as well as photos of him, the man who opened the door, and a thin woman. Lily didn't find any trace of Harry's life.

He put the cake on the table, and took out a large box of homemade biscuits from the small bag, and put them on the table. The biscuits were for Harry's elders, after all, it was his first time visiting someone else's house.

The scene of taking the biscuits happened to be seen by the fat man. The man's eyes popped out when he saw Lily take out a box of biscuits from the bag that obviously couldn't hold the box of biscuits.

Lily saw the blush on the man's face expand rapidly, as if he was very angry and patient, and soon his face turned red.

Behind him was the thin Harry, whose clothes didn't fit very well. He covered his head and looked helplessly at the fat man.

But Lily still saw the pleasure in Harry's helplessness, like the pleasure after revenge, although Lily didn't know what he was happy about.

"Hi! Harry." Lily stood up and greeted Harry.

"Take her upstairs, and don't let me see you again." The fat man yelled at Harry as if he couldn't take it anymore.

Lily opened the big box of biscuits, and the aroma of the biscuits instantly filled the room. The boy sitting on the sofa watching TV was attracted to the biscuits, staring at the biscuits as if he wanted to eat them, his eyes were straightened.

"Hello, I'm sorry to bother you. Here are the cookies I made. I hope you like them."

"Uncle Vernon, I'll take Lily upstairs now." Harry wailed in his heart, quickly interrupted Lily, stepped forward and took Lily's hand to run upstairs.

"Take the biscuit too, don't stay here, Dudley is losing weight." Vernon picked up the biscuit and stuffed it roughly into Harry's other hand.

Harry took the biscuit in one hand, took Lily in the other, and went upstairs as quickly as a gust of wind.

It wasn't until Harry's room that Harry let go of Lily's hand, and looked at Lily apologetically.

"I thought you wouldn't come this time."

"I also thought about using an owl before, but I remember you said that your family doesn't like magic very much. Now it seems that I really don't like it." Lily emphasized the pronunciation of the word and nodded, It's like adding credibility to yourself.

At this time, there was a roar downstairs.

"That's my cousin - Dali, he's been on a diet recently, and he doesn't eat very well." Harry said seeing Lily's puzzled look.

Lily nodded and put the cake on the small table in the room, and Harry also put the biscuit box on the table.

Then Lily's cheerful voice was heard saying, "Happy birthday, Harry."

When Harry saw the cake, he remembered how he celebrated his birthday with Lily and the store manager Mrs. Luo Li at this time last year, and then thought of Lily's mocking words in the screaming room.

Harry, who didn't know what expression to use, said thank you with a dry smile. He didn't seem to know when Lily's birthday was.

"Your uncle looks fierce," Lily said, sitting on the edge of Harry's bed, which diverted Harry's attention away from when Lily's birthday was.

"Well! Neither he nor his aunt like any kind of magic, and you can't even mention it here." Harry sat on the chair beside him and said sullenly.

Lily saw a photo on Harry's desk, on which there were two people holding hands and dancing, and asked, "Are those your parents?" Lily pointed to the photo.

"Hmm! This photo was given to me by Hagrid." Harry looked softly at the photo Lily pointed to.

"That's great! I don't even know who my biological parents are, let alone what they look like." Lily was a little envious, but she thought that she was happy enough to have the youngest Potions master as her father, so don't be too greedy good.

Harry recalled what Lily of the Scream Room said, "Who doesn't die at home, it's not just you without parents..."

He never knew that Lily was an orphan. He thought that all Hogwarts students had parents, otherwise who would pay the annual fees.

"You haven't had... um... parents since you were a child?"

"I don't really remember, maybe there is!" Lily said in an uncertain tone, "But I remember more about life in the orphanage, and I wasn't called Lily back then!" Lily shrugged.

Harry asked curiously, "What's that called? Why did you change your name?"

"It seems to be Phil. I don't remember much, and I don't have any impression of how the name was changed. It seems to be called this naturally. Maybe it's because I was still young at that time!"

"Then who is paying for your annual tuition and books? The school won't teach you for free!"

Harry's tone was full of uncertainty. He remembered seeing that Lily's robes seemed to be new, that the Weasleys had parents, and that Ginny and Ron's wands and cloaks and books were mostly second-hand.

"Oh! Our dean gave me the money, remember Mrs. Luo Li? I expected to earn money from part-time jobs last semester to pay back to the dean! Unexpectedly, that little money was not enough to buy a second-grade textbook .”

"Then where do you live during your vacation?" Harry asked in surprise, as if opening the door to a new world.

"Live at the dean's house! It was the dean who came to me with a letter at first. At that time, I was wandering around your house, and it was the first time we met!"

Only then did Harry know that Lily, who seemed free at that time, was only sitting on the bench because she had nowhere to go.

"Uh! Your dean?" Harry didn't realize who was the dean of Slytherin.

"Professor Snape!" Lily said naturally.

Harry stood up from the chair in fright, and the chair was knocked down to the table, making a muffled bang when it collided with the table.Harry hurriedly looked at the door, straightened his chair, and quietly listened to no sound coming from downstairs before hissing.

"You mean Professor Snape?" Harry looked shocked, and Lily looked at Harry suspiciously.

"what happened?"

"You know Snape, before...before..." Harry looked as if he couldn't talk about it.

"What happened before?" Lily looked at Harry suspiciously, although Lily didn't like hearing Harry call Snape's name directly.

"He used to be a Death Eater! Worked for Voldemort! He's still targeting me." Harry growled in a low voice.

Lily looked at Harry in shock, and stood up from the bed. Harry thought he had frightened Lily, but what Lily said next was beyond his expectation

Lily thought how could this Harry be so bad-mouthing his father in front of her face!

"Harry, I think you should know that Professor Snape helped me when I was in trouble, let me go to school, and helped me pay for my tuition for free. I don't know why you have such a big prejudice against him, but I hope You can treat him fairly."

"I'm prejudiced against him? Treat him fairly! Then he has to treat me fairly first." Harry looked at Lily in disbelief, she was defending Snape.

He thinks that Lily has always been different from the other Slytherins, that she has always been nice to him!Well!Except when it comes to Scream House.

"Harry, don't always think about how others should treat you. You should think about how you treat others." Lily picked up her bag and put it on her back, stood up to leave.

When they walked to the door, Lily turned her head slightly and said to Harry: "Professor Snape is my father now, I don't want to hear disrespectful words from you again, that's all for today, My dad will be worried if I come home late, goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, Lily walked down the stairs quickly, ignoring Harry who was stunned.

And Harry lost his voice in shock at what Lily said that Snape was her father, and he couldn't care less about seeing Lily off.

When Lily reached the stairs, a thin woman stood there. Lily guessed it was Harry's aunt, the woman in the photo in the living room downstairs.

"Is your name Lily?" the woman asked first.

"Yeah!" Lily nodded.

"Oh, are you leaving?" the thin woman continued to ask.

"Well! It's too late, my father should be worried if he doesn't go home again."

"Where is your home? Is it far from here?"

"It's okay! I have to take the train, and it will only take half an hour." Lily said after thinking about it.

"Oh!" The woman said oh and didn't speak again.

"Then goodbye." Lily said goodbye and pushed the door open.

"Goodbye!" Petunia murmured, looking at Lily's back.

Petunia was cleaning the house when Lily came, and she heard Harry call Lily's hands trembling, and the rag in her hand fell to the floor.She picked it up hastily, and when she reached the hall, Harry had already pulled Lily upstairs.

Then she was dealing with Dudley who was clamoring to eat because of the smell of biscuits. When Dudley was away, she wanted to see the girl named Lily, but she hesitated when standing at the stairs.

Just as she was about to leave, there was a sound of 'da da da' going downstairs. A girl in light-colored jeans and a white short-sleeved top came down the stairs with a small black bag on her shoulders. Her hair was Deep red, with dark eyes.

She heard her own voice asking, and the whole conversation was as if she wasn't speaking.

She didn't find her body until she saw the figure receding away from the door and gradually reunited with her little sister.

When we were separated for the last time, I seemed to have an unpleasant quarrel with her, and even quarreled with her, and she was already dead when I got news of her. At that time, how much I regretted not talking to her properly, why the last Memories are so unpleasant!

***

When the school was about to start, Snape no longer just hid in Spider's End and studied potions with great concentration. Instead, he often went back to Hogwarts, and sometimes he didn't come back for a few days.

Lily, who had already finished her homework, would sometimes go to Mrs. Luo Li's place to help out in the store.

Sometimes after work, Mrs. Laurie would mention the big black dog they took in together last summer.

Now Mrs. Luo Li has a little corgi with short legs. His front legs are not very useful, and it is not obvious when he walks, but when he runs, he will notice that his posture is a bit strange.

"It was a very cold morning when I picked him up, and the little one was nesting there." Mrs. Luo Li pointed to the corner outside the window when talking about the little Corgi, "It was still raining at that time, Looking at me pitifully, I thought about raising him."

"My daughter came back a few days ago, but she left after a few days. She is studying mechanics, and she seems to need to study some subjects. She is always very busy."

"I don't know what's going on with Dahei. Will I meet kind people to adopt it in the future?"

"How is the boarding school you are in? The teachers in the school treat you well!"

"Is it important to study? You should also take care of your body while studying."

……

Lily obediently listened to Mrs. Luo Li's chatter, occasionally replying a few words.

The corgi lay obediently at Mrs. Luo Li's feet, occasionally looked up to see if Mrs. Luo Li was still there, and then continued to lie there.

When we returned to Spider's End, a familiar crested eagle was sitting on the mailbox.

Seeing Lily, he leaned over with the letter in his mouth.

Lily took the letter in its mouth, yes, this time there is no hole, "Come on! There is still some bread at home, you can eat some if you don't mind."

The crested eagle spread its wings and jumped onto Lily's outstretched arm.

Cut the bread in the kitchen into small pieces and set aside, Lily took the letter upstairs to read.

Dear Lily:

I am very happy to write to you again. I have been busy this holiday season. My father has specially formulated a training plan for me. You should see a different me next semester.What you know about last semester, I didn't tell anyone, including my dad.The training has come to an end recently. If you have time, I hope you can come to Malfoy Manor as a guest. There will be a tea party on the fifth of this month. You can ask Ajin to bring me a letter.

your faithful draco malfoy

Lily looked at the magic calendar on the desk, and the dates before August [-]st had all been grayed out.

Putting Draco's letter aside, Lily took out a piece of letter paper from the corner of the table, thought for a while and began to write a reply letter, expressing her willingness to be a guest of Barabara.

After tying the letter to the crested eagle's outstretched left leg, Lily touched the crested eagle's shiny feathers, opened the door and let it fly out.

The next day

Snape didn't come back until around six o'clock in the evening.

"Dad, you're back! Have you eaten yet?" Lily just finished her meal and was reading the books on black magic on the bookshelf. There was a large bowl of cookies with raisins in it.

"Yeah! I've eaten it." Snape always cherished words like gold. Lily was used to it and continued to read, but she still pushed the biscuit bowl in front of Snape.

"Have you finished all the previous potions?" Snape sat on the sofa and began to ask about his homework. When he saw the bowl approaching, he took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yeah! Because I've done it before, it's already in the potions cabinet," Lily said as she put down her book.

"In this way, next semester you will be able to take the O·W·ls exam with the senior class, and then join my advanced potions class." Snape thought for a while, and then added, "Advanced potions Drugs have to get excellent grades."

Lily didn't think that she would fail to achieve excellence under Snape's training, so she nodded heavily to show that she knew.

Snape continued: "Your Defense Against the Dark Arts class teacher for next semester has been decided, it is the former Oro Mad-Eyes Moody, I hope you can be prepared." Meng's daughter is really a mistake, I don't know if his appearance will scare Lily.

The girlish Snape couldn't pull back even ten bulls on the line.

"Does he look fierce?" Lily asked habitually, because she has a little potential for color control and prefers beautiful things.

"Well... you can say that." Snape felt that his daughter was indeed a little fragile, and frowned, with crazy eyes and no other comments, except that she looked a little scary.

"It's okay. I think the professor won't scare us for nothing. I'll get used to it after looking at it." Lily said indifferently.

"..." Snape was speechless in his heart.

"The Triwizard Tournament I told you before, your juniors are restricted to participate, so you know the little idea of ​​not playing the competition!"

Lily looked at Snape in confusion, thinking: Ah?When did you say the Triwizard Tournament?By the way, what is that?Can I eat it?

Snape saw Lily's bewildered eyes and immediately knew that his worry was unnecessary, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times and stopped talking.

He has always felt that Lily is very good in one way, and he doesn't want to pursue the root cause. (Professor, in fact, you think less. Your daughter is not interested. If you are interested, you will not be able to bear it. For details, please refer to the two Potter incidents!)

After thinking about it for a while, I remembered that the professor had indeed mentioned the triwizard hegemony to me a long time ago, but at that time he just told me not to participate, and I didn’t pay much attention to it at the time, so I forgot about it when I turned around .

"Draco invited me to Malfoy Manor on the fifth, saying that there was a tea party." Lily told Snape about the letter she received yesterday.

Snape knew that Draco had been receiving special training throughout the holidays. It should be almost the end of the special training recently, and Lucius began to let him out to socialize.

Snape counted the time and nodded, "Okay! I will go with you that day, and I haven't seen Lucius for a long time."

Lily thought she would go alone this time, but she didn't expect Snape to go with her.

"Okay!" Lily replied happily.

August [-]th at [-]pm Malfoy Manor

Today Lily had already prepared, so she and Snape arrived early.

Draco still got up early in the morning, tidied himself up properly, and sat in the lobby waiting for Lily.

When Lily saw Draco again, she felt that Draco was different, but she couldn't tell what was different, so she kept looking at him, trying to find the difference.

Draco received Snape and Lily politely, and led Snape to the study to meet Lucius, and then took Lily to the lobby to chat.

During the whole process, Draco noticed that Lily was looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, so he became more energetic and paid attention to his manners.

To say that this vacation can be said to be the worst vacation Draco has ever had, and I don’t know where his father found the teacher. In addition to teaching some advanced black magic and complex spells, he also needs to conduct etiquette training Intensive training with family history, in short, has been busy since the holiday until now, if the Minister of Magic Fudge hadn't invited them to watch the World Cup, Draco promised that he would still be undergoing hellish training.

"Ah!" Lily suddenly exclaimed, interrupting Draco's thinking.

Draco checked himself immediately, and asked quickly: "What's wrong?" He didn't want Lily to see his unhandsome side again

"I finally know that it looks different there. You are much darker, and you look more—well, how should I put it? It just feels that the aura is different." Lily still couldn't think of how to describe Germany. Laco now gives himself the feeling.

It just feels different from when I was on vacation.

Draco touched his face nervously, "Obviously I didn't pay attention to protecting my face!"

Seeing that Lily still cared about her skin color, she decided to comfort him: "It's okay, it looks a little darker."

But that sounded more like a last shot to Draco. (Lily really didn't light up the comforting skills)

"Are there many people here today?" Lily looked around curiously, but didn't see any classmates.

"Today is the party held by my father. It should be more lively in the evening. I don't have the specific guest list here, so I invited you." Draco said with a blushing face.

"Oh!" Lily nodded, oh, to show that she knew.

There was a brief silence in the living room, Draco was a little nervous and didn't know what to say, in fact, inviting Lily to come was just a whim, he just wanted to meet her, but now the goal was achieved, the person was right in front of him, but he didn't know what to say good.

Curse yourself for being stupid.

"Yeah!" Lily belongs to the kind of guy who doesn't stop talking all the time. Fortunately, Lily's masseter muscle doesn't increase after such a large amount of exercise. Otherwise, the more you eat, the more square your face will be, but if you don't Things will be hungry, and Lily said that she will definitely feel tired and dislike life.

Draco took the chocolate that Lily handed over, watched Lily sip the chocolate, like a cute little hamster, decided to bring a lot of chocolate for Lily to eat, and then watched her eat.

"Hey! Lily, are you here?" Narcissa walked over in a dark blue evening dress, followed by a house elf. Lily, who was slightly blind, didn't know if it was the one from last time.

"Aunt Narcissa, you are so beautiful today!" Lily quickly swallowed the chocolate in her mouth, and her eyes lit up when she saw Narcissa. Although she was blind, it did not affect her aesthetics!

At this time, the position of the unfinished chocolate in his hand was a bit awkward, neither holding it nor putting it down, it was Draco who took the half-eaten piece of chocolate to save Lily from the embarrassment.

Narcissa saw her son's thoughtful behavior, and the smile on her face became more obvious. She guessed right before that Draco was still different to this girl named Lily.

If Pansy had encountered this situation, he would not have thought of it.

"Thank you for the compliment, you are beautiful too." Narcissa also praised Lily, Lily is wearing a light pink pleated skirt today, with cherry blossom petals fluttering slightly with the movement of the dress, it is a typical wizard costume, with a head Her flushed hair was braided into a wreath.

There is also a little light pink highlight, which Lily figured out herself.

Two days ago, Snape ordered several dresses for Lily, and took Lily to some shopping malls in London to scan the goods, and bought back a lot of beautiful clothes, shoes and accessories.

Lily felt that it was a waste to not be able to wear it, but it was rare to see a smile on Snape's face, so she didn't say anything.

Anyway, such a few clothes are the price of a few bottles of potions.

It's just a little tiring to change clothes back and forth.

Snape, on the other hand, thought it was fun to watch his daughter change clothes. Seeing that each outfit matched Lily well, he bought a few more. (Professor is gone forever on the road of girl cultivation)

Narcissa and Lily sat and talked a lot, and Draco didn't bother him, and stayed with him the whole way to the end.

The banquet started at five o'clock in the evening. Lucius said a few words at the beginning and then handed over the scene to Draco. He and Snape went to the study.

The adult Lily who came here basically didn't know each other, but she saw Gore and Crabbe appearing, and Abel also attended the banquet. Unfortunately, she didn't see Matthew and Darren.

Lily didn't stay until the end of the banquet. Snape found her when Lily was hiding in the corner eating cake with Abel, and told her that the two would leave soon.

Saying goodbye to Abel quickly, Draco was still caught by many adults and couldn't get away.

Draco was very happy to see Lily walking towards him, but what he didn't expect was the news that Lily was leaving, and he lost energy when dealing with disappointment.

Everyone is human, so they stopped surrounding Draco. Fortunately, Lucius came out of the study again soon, and Draco went to find Lily.

By this time Lily and Snape had reunited at another fireplace.

"Lily!" Draco called to stop Lily who was about to leave.

"What's wrong?" Lily let go of Snape's hand and turned her head to ask. Draco didn't know what to say, but he simply didn't want her to leave so early. professor.

"Malfoy, if you don't have a good reason." He didn't finish speaking, but Draco heard the overtones and swallowed hard. He seemed to remember why he wanted to invite Lily?

"Ah! No, I... I'm just here to see off Lily." Draco's blank brain really couldn't support it, and subconsciously said it was okay.

"Very well, since it's delivered, we're leaving now." Snape stopped looking at Draco, stretched out his hand to Lily and called out Lily's name: "Lily."

Seeing that Draco seemed to be fine, Lily reached out to hold Snape's hand, waved to Draco and said, "I'm leaving, bye!"

"Wait." Draco stopped them, and finally he remembered that there was something else he had forgotten to say about inviting Lily today.

"It's the Quidditch World Cup in a few days, England vs Bulgaria, do you want to watch it with me? My dad can get a good seat!"

The you in Draco's mouth knew it was Lily without saying it, and he was a little unhappy to be ignored by the professor.

Lily looked at Snape's face, it was okay, it was normal.

"Dad, are you going?" Lily was looking forward to it, because she was a little bored after staying at home for two months. Although she didn't like Quidditch very much, there was no harm in going out for a walk. It would be even better if Papa Pu went out with him.

"If you want to go." Snape thought for a while, remembering that the book he secretly bought said that parent-child activities are essential for cultivating relationships with his children, so he thought he could give it a try.

"Okay! Draco, my dad and I will go together." Lily smiled happily, and disappeared into the green flames with narrowed eyes and a smile.

Draco was still looking at the fireplace and giggling until the green flames disappeared into the fireplace.
