Chapter 4

By: Sevix

Severus was still sleeping when Harry's eyes fluttered open on Sunday morning. He leaned in and pressed a light kiss to Severus's forehead. Sev leaned into the kiss and muttered something that Harry couldn't quite understand. "Wake up, Sev. I'll be in the shower if you need me."

Harry walked to the shower and turned on the hot water. Harry wasn't one to take short showers. He usually was in the shower for almost an hour at a time. He was just in the middle of washing his hair, about a half an hour in when he heard…

"That bitch. Bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, BITCH!"

"What the fuck was that." Harry muttered as he jumped out of the shower, threw a towel around his waist and ran into the bedroom. "Sev, are you ok?" Harry yelled as he threw open the door.

Sev was staring at the TV with a horrified look on his face. "He bought that bitch a necklace."

"Who bought what?" Harry asked confused. Harry hadn't seen Sev this mad since he had Neville Longbottom in his class. That was one thing that Rowling got right. Sev hated Neville. Harry wasn't that fond of Neville either, but he had this problem where he had to be nice to everyone. That was everyone except Sev, of course.

"That conniving little slut seduced Alan and he bought her a necklace for Christmas. I can't believe that he did that to his wife."

"What the fuck are you talking about? Are you okay Sev?"

"This movie, Love Actually." He pointed to the TV screen. It was paused on a picture of a girl in her underwear putting a necklace around her throat. He looked from the picture and then to Harry. "Why do you have soap in your hair?"

"I was in the shower. I ran in here because I thought that something was really wrong." Harry was really pissed. If Sev couldn't see the steam coming from his ears, then he had to be blind. "Can you not scream bloody murder long enough for me to take a shower?"

"Sorry, I was just pissed at that whore. Go get back in the shower. I promise I won't scream or even yell."

Harry walked back into the bathroom, dropping the towel around his waist on the floor and stepping into the hot steam. He decided that the best way to work off his newfound anger was to let a long line of curse words fall from his mouth. And it actually did help. Some.

"Harry, you need to come over here right now." Lupin's voice sounded excited and a little like it was just in a fit of laughter, but he was trying to control himself.

"Fine, I'll be there in a second," Harry said into the phone.

"Hurry! This is the craziest thing. Come quick." The receiver clicked down.

Harry yelled into the other room, "Sev, I'm going to talk to Lupin. I'll be back in a few minutes."

"Please hurry. I don't want to spend my tonight alone. I thought that we could go out to dinner in… well, it was going to be a surprise."

"I'll try to hurry, Sev. I wouldn't even go, but it sounded really important. I'll try to make it as short of a visit as possible." Sev grunted in response as Harry walked out of their room.

When Harry reached the main hall he saw that Peeves was throwing water balloons at a group of first years, and they were screaming and running as he was chasing them. Normally Harry would have stopped Peeves, but now he was to busy. They would have to learn to defend their selves sometime anyway.

Lupin was waiting at the door when Harry reached his room. "What is so important?" He asked looking at Lupin.

His face was full of excitement as he grabbed Harry by the arm and pulled him into his room. "You won't believe this unless you see this." Lupin let go of Harry's arm and grabbed his laptop off the coffee table. "Read this."

The laptop was open to a page that had a long article on it. It was something to do with the cast of the Harry Potter movie. Harry started to read the article when he goes to what Lupin was talking about. "You've go to be kidding me. This is… this is great! Completely messed up, but great."

"I knew you would think this was great. I can't wait to see what Severus thinks about this." Lupin had a broad smile over his face.

"I can't believe that Alan Rickman is going to play Sev in the movie. This is just the weirdest thing that has ever happened. You know what's funny. Alan always reminded me of him a little." Harry was laughing now too. "Thanks for telling me this." He hugged Lupin, the said, "I'm going to tell Sev. See you later."

"I didn't expect you to stay long after you heard anyway."

Harry reached his room and threw open the door. Severus was on the couch flipping through an issue of entertainment weekly. "Sev, you will not believe this. Guess who's playing you in the Harry Potter movie."

"Wait. They are making those," he pointed to the bookshelf where the Harry Potter books sat, "into feature films."

"Yes," harry said sighing, "But I wanted you to guess who is playing you."

"No idea. Anthony Hopkins?" Harry laughed at this.

"Nope. Way better than Anthony Hopkins. I'll give you a clue. 'By Grabthar's Hammer, you will be avenged.'" Harry quoted.

"You have to be kidding me."

"No."

"Are you serious?"

"No. I'm Harry. Sirius is my godfather." Severus hit him on the arm.

"Ouch."

"You deserved it." Harry smiled and hit him back.

"I can't believe that Alan Rickman is going to play me. ME!" He didn't seem to mind the punch that Harry placed on his shoulder because a second later he pulled Harry into a backbreaking hug. "This is amazing."

"I thought you would take it this way. I still don't know who is playing me yet. But Maggie Smith is playing McGonagall. And Richard Harris is playing Dumbledore."

"I love the Harry Potter series!"

"What? You don't love those books. You hate them." Harry said truthfully. There was no way for Sev to get around this one.

"Not the books, the movies." Harry was wrong.

"What are you talking about? You haven't even seen it yet."

"Well, with Rickman in it, it is sure to be the best movie ever. This is great. A character based on my husband and my favorite actor in the same film. This is the best day ever."

Harry looked at him skeptically. "What about our wedding?"

"I wasn't finished. This is the best day of my life since our wedding."

"That's better. So do you want to go celebrate?"

"Yes. This is the prefect opportunity to go to the place that I was thinking of. It will be perfect for a special occasion like this. I mean I wasn't sure that we should go or not tonight, but now that we really have something special to celebrate I think we should."

"What do you mean something special to celebrate? It's our 4th year wedding anniversary!"

"That's what I meant." Sev said, not totally pulling off the lie. Severus was a very good liar, but Harry was the only one who could see through him.

"Sure you did. You better make up for this at dinner… and after." Harry said a little growl in his voice.

"I really knew it was our anniversary. See." Severus pulled out a present from the inside of his cloak. Harry didn't know where Sev kept everything that he hid in his cloak, but Severus always seemed to pull the most random thing out of there. There must have been hidden pockets in there somewhere. The present was wrapped in green wrapping presents, with a gold bow on the top.

"Thanks, Sev." Harry responded to his present with a long, lingering kiss.

Harry knew that he was going to have a great night tonight, both at dinner and after.
