CHAPTER 7
The next morning Severus flooed over and put the potion on the table. "Lupin."
Sirius: *was still sitting where he was, his face buried in his arms on his knees*
"Lupin, your potion. You know how much worse it gets when I cools."
Sirius: *hears Sev bt doesnt look up* Remy's not here, Snivellus. Go away
Severus stopped short. "'He needs his potion." Severus said. "When will he be back."
Sirius: He wont be coming bk. Will u just get lost?
"Well don't sound so cheery." He said going back to the potion. He took a deep breath he should be trying to get to know him better.
Sirius: *out of the blue, the words just came out* Remy's breaking up with me
"Oh? Can't stand you hogging the dog bed anymore?" It popped out. He was so use to jabbing at him.
Sirius: *growled n stood up, storming towards him, cornering him against the wall as he raised his fist, ready to strike, bt as he glared at Sev with a vengeance, he gritted his teeth, clenched his eyes tight as he tried to hold bk his tears as he slammed his fist onto the mirror beside Sev instead, making a spiderweb crack n his knuckles bleed*
As soon as he hit that wall he closed his eyes. This is what he had feared about that man but he heard the mirror break, not his nose. He opened his eyes to see sirius started to cry. He blinked, in all his years he had never see that.
Sirius: *swore as he felt the sting of his bleeding knuckles n held his wrist, turning away frm him* Get outta here. U've seen enough
Severus swallowed and moved around him to tak sirius' hand and said a spell to remove any shards and to heal his knucles. "you know that is seven years bad luck."
Sirius: *snatches his hand away as soon as it was healed n massaged his knuckles* Yeah, well, nothing I cant handle. My life is a walking bad phenomena anyways
Severus nodded. taking his hands back. "Not everyone's is smelling like roses, Black."
Sirius: *frowns at him* Wht r u still doing here, neways, Snivellus? Remy isnt here, so why dont u just bugger off?
"Taking Lily's advice and looking at you like a human. Obviously that was an idiot thing to do."
Sirius: *glares at him* U make me sound like I'm some sort of hellspawn creature
"I don't remember sending a 16 year old kid to see a werewolf on a full night." He folded his arms.
Sirius: Aww, c'mon. Ur still on with tht? I was just gonna scare u a bit. Remy would nvr hurt anyone, not evn in his wolf form. I was right outside the door in my Animagus form in case anything went wrong so I can tackle him. 'Sides, I thought Remy already gave u both our peace offerings
"He did. Not you, Black. You still an ass to me."
Sirius: *looks away* Well, I still have my pride, u knw. I was...kinda worried tht u would reject my peace offering at my face n make me a fool in front of everyone. I was GOING to give u tht Felix Felicis I rigged frm a upper-class boy, bt Remy said chocolates make ppl feel much better...
"I hate chocolate." He said. "I would have much prefured a potion. Not that it matters now."
Sirius: *a long pause before he sighed* Fine, u want me to apologize? *turns to a cabinet in the bedroom n took out a vial* Here. I'm sorry. Happy now?
Severus was about to say something when he saw the potion. The light pink color wasa dead give away. It was highly skilled Calming daught. "Where did you get this?" He asked talking it and uncorking the bottle. It smiled like roses, it had been brud to perfection.
Sirius: *shrugged* Some guy named Thomas Heartwing. He was retiring frm his position in the Ministry n held a garage sale to sell off his stuff to live at the countryside, n I just bought it out of a whim. Wht is it anyway? *he had no idea how rare the potion was nor how famous was Thomas Heartwing*
"Oh my! Thomas Heartwing?!!" Severus got a bit smile on his face as he looked over the potion. "Did he say he made it?"
Sirius: Yeah, part of his many personal stashes. *raised his brow as he saw Sev's smile, which was a vry sight* I gather he must be famous n I hit the jackpot on the potion or something?
"You did. He is one of the most famous potion Masters in the world. I aspire to be like him."
Sirius: I thought u had a die-hard infatuation with DADA, since ur always aftr tht job
"No. That was a cover for the Dark Lord. I wanted to be a Potions Master and nothing else. I like the subject but I like charms too, doesn't mean I want Flitwick's job."
Sirius: Hm. Point taken. So we're even now?
"Very well." He was still looking at his potion.
Sirius: So...ur still not reli into this marriage, are u?
Severus shook his head. "I was married once and that was enough."
Sirius: Once? U mean u n Cassi are...? *he didnt knw tht Sev was divorced*
"Yes. We have been devorced four three years."
Sirius: I see. Well...Tht makes both of us. Remy...seems like he is planning to leave me... *sighed bitterly n sat on the bed, hanging his head*
"We both should go to them and say that we are not wantingto get married."
Sirius: Tell who? The Ministry? Dont be naive. U being tht bat cave of urs so long u have no idea how the Ministry works nowadays
"I don't care. I refuse to be married to you."
Sirius: Well, neither am I a happy camper either. Have u actually looked in a mirror lately?
Severus slapped him. "At least I don't lick myself and call it a shower." He turned and was off towards to the fireplace.
Sirius: *held his face n growled, before running towards him n grabbed him* HEY! Just because u healed me n I prostate myself to apologize to u doesnt mean u do whtever u like to me! *slams him against the side of the fireplc*
Severus grimiced. "I hate you Black. And I always will. Even if they make us marry. I will kill myself before I let you touch me."
Sirius: *wanted to slap Sev bk to return the "favour", bt there was something in Sev's eyes tht reminded him of how Remy looked at him before he left. His heart felt like it just broke into a million pieces as he let him go, covering his eyes, not wanting Sev to see anymore of his vulnerable side, trying to will the tears away* G...Get out...Get out of here... *choked voice*
Severus knew when to get and got out of there as fast as he could. Once back into his rooms he fell to the floor, sobbing.
Sirius: Remy...How could u do this to me...? *sobs*
