Chapter one: The Cold Hard Truth Comes Out
He was almost done, Uncle Vernon was going to be home in about ten minutes…but Harry was almost done. Now all he had to do was disappear before his uncle came home. Harry could handle his aunt and cousin; they tried their hardest to help him. His aunt even once stepped in when he was about to be hit, but even then, harry wouldn't burden them more than he already has. And that is the reason why he was so adamant about getting up those stairs to his room before uncle Vernon got home.
It was one month into summer and all ready his body hurt worse than it did in fourth year in the tournament. There were bruises lining his body, and it hurt to do anything including sitting. The abuse that happens in privet is far worse than the abuse he gets in front of his aunt and cousin, and he hoped to keep it from everyone.
Just what I need, the rest of the world to know the boy who defeated Voldemort can't even stop his muggle uncle. Harry thought to himself as he finished dusting around the fire place.
All of a sudden, his alarm went off. Vernon was home. Looking towards the door and Standing as fast as he could so he can run if needed, he didn't see the flames turn green or the face in them looking out at him.
As his uncle slowly walked towards him, harry saw a gleam in the eyes of that man, the same gleam he gets when they are doing the privet abuse. This can't be good; we aren't even in my room. This can't be happening. …. At least aunt petunia and Dudley are out. They can't see it happening. No one can. Good. Little did he know that there was one pair of eyes watching the whole interaction. "boy! You've got just one more chore to do… can you guess it?" Vernon said smacking him across his face. Hard.
Severus Snape, was pissed. Earlier that day Albus called him down to his office, to ask him to check on Harry. Even with Voldemort gone, he's still checked on and spoiled by anyone. Severus was annoyed, now he had to go fire call the "wonder boy".
Snape threw the floo powder in and called out his destination, right as he was going to yell out to Harry, Harry jumped up not even looking. Great, he doesn't even pay attention to his surroundings. Lazy arrogant bastard. However, all negative thoughts of Harry went out of his mind when he saw his uncle come in. he was fat and sweaty, and was determined. Stupid muggles, so predictable.
That was of course till his uncle walked over to harry and hit him hard across the face. If that didn't shock Severus what happened next did.
A/N: I'm not sure if I'm going to keep going with this. Maybe, but this is my first time writing. So review? Pleaseee.
