Severus Snape-
*Rose's POV*
All my classes had finished, and I was on a walk, trying to clear my thoughts, when something caught my eye. The heads of houses were whispering close together. I blinked at them as they came nearer to me.
They looked at me.
Professor McGonagall spoke first, "Miss. Weasley, Professor Dumbledore requires you. Please follow us."
We went towards the Gryffindor tower, I was scared that they were change my houses.
We stopped at a large statue.
"Acid pop," Professor Snape said.
We climbed up the stairs. Professor Dumbledore was sat behind his desk.
"Ah, Miss. Weasley, pleasure to meet you," He said,"Come and sit down, I have a very important matter to discuss with you."
I sat down on the chair in front of him.
"I have been informed that a very unfortunate event has happened to you. So the Heads of Houses and I took out some time to discuss what will happen to you. We have been so lucky to inform that someone is ready to take you in, and that is Professor Snape. You will not only live with him during the holidays, but he will also help you clear your mind out. But of course we will need your permission to do so."
I thought about it, I did need help, so I nodded.
Dumbledore smiled,"Great!"
I looked at Snape,"What do I call you?"
"You can call me by my name, however you call me Professor Snape while we are with other students."
I nodded.
"Come to my room today after dinner, so we can start our first lesson."
I stood up and left going straight to the library knowing Hermione would be there, and I was right.
------------------------------------------------------------
*After Telling Her Everything*
"That's great! I am so proud of you" she said.
Soon after, we walked towards the Great Hall with Harry and Ron following at our tails. I think that they were trying to eavesdrop on us because at some point I heard Ron say,"How come she is friends with a Gryffindor?"
Hermione just told me to stand strong and ignore them as they had no more anything to do with my life.
Dinner went through smoothly. Draco sat with us, introducing me to Blaise Zabini, Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle and Theodore Nott.
The girls fluttered their eyes while I just rolled them.
I saw Severus stand up, so I did. I gave a quick glance at Hermione, who nodded in encouragement.
I went towards the Potions classroom and knocked, going inside when I was allowed to. This was going to need some getting used to.
"Rose, how lovely, are you ready to start?"
"Yes... Sev"
He chuckled,"You remind me of an old friend of mine, she used to call me that. Right anyway, no need to be formal or anything. This will be your -kind of- home while you are at Hogwarts. So sit down."
I did as he said.
"Right, so first I need to get to know you, what are your likes?"
I hesitated. I felt some weird sensation inside me. Severus's face softened.
"Don't worry, I won't judge you."
"Well.. I like muggle music, I like to sing, and play instruments."
"Wonderful! Have you ever created your own piece of music?"
I shook my head,"I would love to, but I don't know how."
He smiled and told me to follow him. He conjured up a door with two rooms. On the right way my room and I could sleep there if I wanted to, and his room was on the left.
We went into my room which had walls painted a pastel color of purple. How did he know that was my Favorite color?
There was a study table, I sat on it as he gave me parchment and a quill.
"Creating music is simple, all you need is lyrics and a tune, right?"
I nodded.
"Write down how you feel, a your thoughts. Then place them in a way that they make sense. Once you are satisfied, you can even add some fantasy if you want."
I had a small idea in my mind of what I was going to do,"Hey Sev, can you conjure up a piano?"
"Yes, however don't stay up late, if you do, here is a letter for why you are late so Filch doesn't stop you."
He left me closing the door behind him. I scribbled down random words that popped into my head. I didn't want everything of my personal life to be in my very first song.
Once I had the lyrics, I moved onto the piano quickly making my tune, and trying to not forget it. I was finally done, I thought the song sounded awesome. I started to sing it.
"Like a small boat, on the ocean. Sending big waves, into motion.
Like how a single word, can make a heart open. I might only have one match, but I can make an explosion.
And all those things I didn't say.
Wrecking balls inside my brain.
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song. Take back my life song. Prove I'm alright song.
My powers turned on. Starting right now, I'll be strong. I'll play my fight song.
And I don't really care if nobody else believes, cause I've still got alot of fighting left in me.
Loosing family and Im chasing sleep. Everybody is worried about me. In too deep, Say Im in too deep.
And its been two days and I am missing home. But there's a fire burning in my bone.
And I still believe, Yeah I still believe.
And all those things I didn't say.
Wrecking balls inside my brain.
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song. Take back my life song. Prove I'm alright song.
My powers turned on. Starting right now, I'll be strong. I'll play my fight song.
And I don't really care if nobody else believes, cause I've still got alot of fighting left in me.
Alot of fighting left in me.
Like a small boat, on the ocean. Sending big waves, into motion.
Like how a single word, can make a heart open. I might only have one match, but I can make an explosion.
This is my fight song. Take back my life song. Prove I'm alright song.
My powers turned on. Starting right now, I'll be strong. I'll play my fight song.
And I don't really care if nobody else believes, cause I've still got alot of fighting left in me.
Now I've still got alot of fight left in me."

*Time Skip*
I woke up in a different bed, this one way more comfortable. I looked around, I was still in the clothes I had worn last night.
I must have dozed off after singing. The last thing I remembered was clapping.
I stood up and saw my school clothes. I went into my shower and wore the Slytherin robes on. I looked at the timetable.
We had Flying first. Then Potion. Good lord, Potions. If Severus was going to be my Foster parent, I would have to make him proud.
I left my room.
"Hey Sev"
"Good morning Rose. Awesome song, I loved it. Sorry I didn't wake you up.."
"It is alright. Thanks for the lesson, it really helped. I had a very peaceful sleep."
He chuckled.
I left.
I was given a group hug by Millicent, Pancy, Tracey, Daphne, Draco, Crabbe, Goyle, Blaise and Theodore.
"Thank goodness your alright."
"Yeah, we waited for you"
"But you didn't arrive, so we thought that you were just late"
"So we all went to bed"
"But in the morning, you weren't there."
I smiled,"I just dozed off."
I explained to them what happened as they sighed. Wow, no one had ever cared for me like this, not even my real family.
