    JANET IS LILY?! Why the sneaky little... What happened to James, you swine! Raging emotion aside, what happened to the "perfect" Potter family of Aiden, James and Lily? Did they continue to live in a happy little family, hiding their ugly faces from their second son? Would Aiden be in Hogwarts with Harry... Or are they to far apart in age at the moment? Is Lily trying to hook up with Severus again because James got boring? Did Severus even know Lily from his childhood, like in cannon?
    SO. MANY. QUESTIONS!!!
    My poor little Hawwy. He needs lot of love, and maybe some chocolate. He had so good... BEFORE JANET SCREWED EVERYTHING UP.
    Thank you for another brilliant chapter. I was so excited to see in up! I wait with only slight impatience for your next one. (~.^)

    Author's Response: looks can be deceiving huh? are you sure she is Lily? or is she? a full explanation about the potters are on the next chapter and Aiden is also included, though i can tell you that Severus knew Lily before Hogwarts and they were good friends at some point. and if you think this is angst you are about to be blew off your feet cause i promise you the next chapter is epic! thank you so much for your brilliant support Draco, i am very pleased and flattered. but no worries i will update sooner than you think ;)

    Omggggggg I love this story!! Have never been a fan of stories where Harry is instantly fine as soon as Severus begins to show him some affection and love. Harry being plagued with psychological issues such as anxiety and depression and even bedwetting it seems, is so much more believable and realistic.

    I have a theory about Janet, so here goes..... I have a feeling that maybe Janet is Lily in disguise? Or something? From what I have read, both woman have the same birthmark, which Harry also has, so this is the only explanation I can come up with. Perhaps Lily has repented and is trying to build a relationship with Harry again?

    I don't know, but I do know that you are a spectacular writer and I honestly can't wait for an update. Any idea when you might update again? I am sooo excited to see what happens next!

    Author's Response: THANK YOU! your review literally had me falling off my bed at 6 am in the morning! i'm not a fan of those stories either, it seems a little too unreal, and i always thought about what could happen next,your theory is really close but not there yet, you made the right link between the birthmarks though so stay tuned and again THANK YOU for your brilliant compliment Lym, it warmed my heart, don't worry i will update very soon. ;)

    "If you were afraid, my darling,
    Afraid, my darling,
    I'd be the courage you lack..."
    --Boat Song by JJ Heller
    Thought of this song when I was reading! It the sweetest song, look it up!
    I find myself more willing to take Harry's side of the argument, but I'm a little bias (and proud of it). It was a little sad the Janet was being insensitive about Harry being "abnormal". I wonder if it is because Harry's backstory hasn't been revealed to her. Is Severus holding that back because he thinks Harry should choose to let her know?
    Thank you for another chapter. You have so many others up, I can't imagine how you manage. Waiting for next time! (~.^)

    Author's Response: my goodness! i just listened to that song and wow... i actually wrote the next chapter with it, it was very sweet indeed, i recommend you listen to it again while reading the next chapter too! and i think you're on the right track concerning Harry, i never doubted his instincts(wink, wink) all of your questions are about to be revealed in the next chapters so stay tuned cause i'm writing like mad and i don't even know how! ;D

    There are three thing I like about this work...
    1) It begins with an established relationship between Harry and Severus. You don't usually see a lot of those. It makes it something new.
    2) Harry's counting. I haven't seen it before in other people's work. I like reading originality. (plus it made my want to wrap the child in a blanket.)
    3) Harry wasn't magically cured from his insecurities. Because a lot of the "adoption" fics begin at, well, the beginning, I always feel like I'm left hanging at the end. How does their life look after all the events that took place? Everything's not a happily-ever-after, how could it be?
    But, yours had a good balance of the "beginning" (in chapter 2-how Harry came to being adopted by Severus) and the "aftermath", which should really be called the "continuation" (pretty much the rest of it).
    As for editing, here's a tip. "Dad" should be capitalized if it is used as a name or title, or anything like that. In Harry thinking process, any time he refers to Severus as "Dad", the "d" should be upper case. However, if Harry is referring to Severus as "his" dad, Dad is not capitalized.
    Examples: "Do you love me, Dad?" // "Harry wondered if his dad loved him."
    Hoped that tip helped you out.
    Thank you for a good read. You had me hanging for your last chapter. And I would love to see more... (~.^)

    Author's Response: wow! thank you for the brilliant review ;) it warmed my heart. i'm really glad that you liked the plot and character establishment, i always try to trive for originality in my works and it often make me feel self_conscious so it made me happy. i'm also glad that even though the story was done in three chapters it left you feeling satisfied. yes, i actually do plan to continue this fic, perhaps just until the baby's born, because i still feel the conflict and tension between Harry and Jan even though they talked. thank you for the tip and i will edit them as soon as i get the time ;)

    That was a really good chapter. I like that Ron is being supportive to his friend, but also telling him the truth. I really hope that Harry and Severus can sit down together and find the middle ground, all those years together must count for something, but Severus needs to be the one to make the first move - he's really been blinded by love for Janet.

    Author's Response: Thank you for the wonderful review, it's good to know that people enjoy reading this. I tried to keep Ron as canon as possible but with my own little twist of character. I think he's fascinating. Harry and Severus will certainly talk things out in the next chapter, but that doesn't Mena things will be sorted out that quickly. ;)

    I would love for this to be extended. It's so good

    Author's Response: Thank you for the wonderful review ;) and I would be willing to continue this in one shots after the the third chapter, showing different stages in their lives. I believe there are so much angst or drama I can drain from this fic.
