CHAPTER 4- IN THE DAYS OF THE CAVEMAN
WORD COUNT- 1611 APROX.
Narcissa burst through the door swiftly followed by Nathanial.
"Where is sh… LILLY!" The tall blonde woman ran across the room and scooped her smaller friend into her arms, turning Lily's face so she could see the injured side.
"Nat, it is true, Oh! Just wait until I get my hands or that terrible excuse for a man!" Nathanial took Narcissa by the hand and led her to the side, allowing Remus to reach Lily with the ice pack that her was holding,
"Let the poor girl breath, she's been through enough tonight she doesn't need smothered as well." Then turning back to Lily, "Is little Harry okay? Poor little boy."
Lily nodded holding the ice pack to her cheek and shifting on the couch,
"Yeah, Sev end Re set him up in the guest room." She swallowed hard and sniffed, shifting again.
"WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET HIM!" Sirius and Lucius stormed in through the fireplace.
"When we know exactly what's going on and you're properly dressed." Severus stated calmly looking to where Sirius and Lucius stood still in sleep attire, or in Sirius's case boxers.
"That would be most wise." Lucius agreed, suddenly feeling very uncomfortable clad only in his pyjama bottoms.
Sirius nodded,
"Okay then. Guys through to the kitchen, we'll piece together what we know, the rest stay with Lily." There were nods and murmurs all round as they trooped into the kitchen, or there was until the door was closed on both Lucius and Remus's faces.
"Well is that quite right, is it?" Remus and Lucius looked at each other before barging in through the door. Conversation stopped. Sirius turned and smiled to them both,
"Can we help you with anything?" The two by the door glared at the occupants of the room. Realisation dawned on Severus's face,
"God, Remus, I am SO sorry, I didn't even…"
"Forgiven. At least you realise what you did wrong. And we're here for Lily, not petty squabbling."
"I'm still going to kill Sirius if he doesn't realise his mistake in the next five seconds." Lucius stated bluntly.
" I didn't do anything wrong! Look the last thing I said with you around was 'Guys into the'… oh shit…"
"Yes, and then you personally closed the door on Remus and my self. Oh shit indeed."
" I wasn't meaning to imply that the two of you are any less men just because your not the domi….."
"I would stop right there if I were you." Nathanial warned, as he watched Lucius eye the knives on the back wall of the kitchen.
"I'll just grab some chocolate from the fridge I think" Remus interjected, grabbing the chocolate and dragging Lucius out after him.
I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH -----OoOoOoO-----I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH
"The cheek of it!" Lucius huffed as the sat back down beside the girls. "I can't believe you let Severus get away with that!"
"He didn't mean it and I could tell that he was confused about why they were starting before we came in, joys of the Werewolf-Mate bond" Remus grinned.
"Yeah. Why are you guys through here anyways?" Narcissa enquired with a frown.
Lucius scowled and huffed,
"Apparently we're not manly enough for their conversation."
"Awww… poor little poodle." Narcissa grinned. Lucius flipped her off and Lily gave a quiet and discreet giggle meeting her friend's amber eyes. Remus smiled to her kindly and produced the chocolate that he had brought from the kitchen.
"Everything will be sorted out, don't you worry." He soothed breaking a sclif of chocolate from the bar and passing bits round.
"Oh! MY! GOD!" Their heads spun round to face Narcissa.
"Cissa, are you okay?" Lily reached out to comfort her friend.
"We HAVE to have a sleepover!" she squealed excitedly, the two men present blinked owlishly at her,
"It would cheer Lily up a bit, take her mind off it a bit. Look! Lucius is all ready taking part!" Lucius looked panicked.
"I think she's referring to the fact that you're in your pyjamas." Remus tried to reassure the blond man.
"Of course. What else could I possibly have meant Luce?" Lucius shrugged nervously, hoping that the subject of conversation would change soon.
"Well I'm going to go change and grab any junk food I can find in the cupboards next door, I'll bring a change for you too Lils!" And with that the tall woman flounced from the room and out into the hall.
Remus sighed and heaved himself from his perch on the arm of the couch and headed off towards his bedroom.
"Where are you off to?
"Well if Cissa is dragging us all down with her, I'm at least going to be comfortable, so I'm off to change and grab some extra blankets and pillows," The werewolf replied as he closed the door behind him, then poking his head back out, called, "You want me to bring a top back through for you Luc?"
"I don't think any of your clothes would fit me…"
"I would have given you something of Sev's…"
"Yeah, that'll probably do…" Lucius mused back. Remus couldn't help but laugh to himself as he finished getting changed and fished out an old T-shirt of Severus's, 'that'll probably do.' The potions master had at least three inches on the platinum blonde man, and he had shoulders like barn doors, Malfoy on the other hand, just had delusions of grandeur. Grabbing some pillows and the two spare duvets from the bed he lopped back into the living room.
"Your t-shirt, monsieur." The young man laughed as he launched the clothing at his friend, who caught it with his face.
"Always the gentleman Remus, always the gentleman." He smirked pulling it on over his head.
I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH -----OoOoOoO-----I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH
"So we go and confront him then?"
The other to men turned to Nathanial, they weren't used to the reserved man being so blunt.
"I mean, of course, one of us should probably take Harry to his grandmother's, let Lily and the boy rest. But after that, we find out what Potter's side of this, not that he really has one." He continued while Severus and Sirius looked on awestruck. They nodded,
"I'll take Harry then, and catch you guys up at the Lion's Den, so to speak." Severus offered.
"Yeah, what the bat said, I'll flew Ol' Grandma Evans, Severus grabs the kid, then we give my ex-best friend a bollucking. This is almost starting to sound like a plan chaps!" Severus frowned at being called a bat, and Nathanial merely watched on. They all left the room together to follow out their 'almost-a-plan'.
I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH -----OoOoOoO-----I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH
"Harry… Harry, little one, coming to visit your grandma, Hm?" Severus cooed gently as the toddler in his arms began to wake up on his way through to the living room. The others had already been briefed on what was about to take place and the dark haired Slytherin professor entered just in time to see Sirius and Nathanial disappear into the eerie green flames of the floo network.
"Going to give your mama a kiss before we head of?" He enquired the small child, bouncing him gently on his hip as Lily approached.
"Mwah. Love you, my little Harry. Say 'heya' to your Grandma for me!" She gave the toddler a kiss on his forehead and leading them to the fireplace. Severus stepped through the emerald flames,
"Alison Evans, RiverBank Cottage!"
I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH -----OoOoOoO-----I:HEART:WIZARDSLASH
After handing Harry over to his Grandmother, Severus found himself in the surprisingly cosy looking Potter's front living room. He made his way through the silent Bungalow towards the kitchen. What he found there shocked the potions master, huddled round the family dinner table where Sirius and Nathanial, the closer he got the stronger the bitter stench of alcohol got. Severus looked between them as they gave him a bitter smile and turned back to face the table.
There a very drunken James Andrew Potter, surrounded in the empty remains of many a liquor bottle, was draped across a chair.
"This is how we found him…" Sirius explained in hushed tones. Severus nodded.
"He's totally pickled, we're not going to get anything out of him." Continued Nathanial with a frown. The pile of drunken flesh beside them shifted slightly and groaned. The three men watched him carefully.
"…What have I done…"
