AN- this is a short fic to
let you know of my comeback! Sirius is currently sick (poor love) and Aphrodite
just loves that dear little beanbag… (Aphrodite is his sister btw.)
Sirius walked down the stairs massaging
his head. He had been poorly for a few days now. His mum had earlier warmed up
a hot butterbeer for him. He walked to the counter where the butterbeer stood a
few inches away from a plate smeared with chocolate and a drawn smiley-face in
the middle. He made a grab for the butterbeer but missed as he heard wailing
coming from the formal lounge.
"OWW! YOU STUPID BEANBAG!
I'M GONNA KILL YOU! I WILL! I WILLL!" Aphrodite screamed. Sirius grinned,
grabbed the bottle and leaned against the door to watch.
"Hurt your bum?" Sirius
coughed and laughed. Aphrodite scowled.
"No. It was the beanbags
fault."
Aphrodite picked up the
purple beanbag with suns and moons on it and started spinning around with it on
her back. She was going red in the face but kept on going. She threw it on the ground and kicked it. But
as she kicked it she slipped and fell on her bum again. Sirius laughed. Tears
swelled in Aphrodite's eyes but they dried away quickly.
"You hurt your bum didn't
you? Serves you right. Poor Mr. Beanbag. Think how he must feel." Sirius
croaked.
"Oh YEA?" Aphrodite
screamed and made a dash for the Marauder's Map.
"Don't you dare touch
that!" Sirius yelled. Aphrodite stopped.
"Then be quiet." Aphrodite
said and picked up the "head" of the beanbag and punched it repeatedly. She
stretched it until some on the seams started to burst.
"Um, Aphrodite, I think
it's dead." Sirius said just as the beans over flowed out of the bag. "And I
think you're dead too."
Aphrodite looked at the
beans she was standing in and her face turned from triumph to shock.
"SIRIUS! Just because I
looked at your broom doesn't mean you had to kill the beanbag!" Aphrodite
screamed.
"WHAT!" Sirius yelled
hurting his throat.
Their mother hurried in
clutching a baby that was talking away in some baby language and stopped to
laugh at the mess. Their mother put down the baby and stopped to gasp. (A/n-The
baby is Lucinda Sirius' evil sister; you'll have to read this other fic I still
have too post to get her life story.)
"Oh Sirius, you could've
just told her not to look at your broom…but this is…this is…" Their mother
struggled for words.
"I didn't do it! I swear!
Aphrodite was doing summersaults (sp?) off the table or something!" Sirius
said. Aphrodite flushed red and hid her hands behind her back which were
covered in chocolate (The cake!) and beanbag beans.
Their mother glanced at
Aphrodite a stern look on her face. But it changed to sympathy.
"Oh Aphrodite, you're going
all red. I think you've caught Sirius' fever!" She cried putting a hand to
Aphrodite's forehead. But the stern look re-appeared. "Aphrodite Athena Black
why are their chocolate handprints on my just polished table? And don't say
Sirius did it because his hands aren't that size!"
Aphrodite glanced at Baby
Lucinda who was cautiously touching the beans, to a smirking Sirius, to a fuming
mother and burst into tears.
"Go wash your hands and get
cleaned up while I clean this." Their mother sighed as she searched for her
wand.
A few minutes later Sirius
and Aphrodite were in the lounge watching TV*. Aphrodite was sitting very close
to it and Sirius was lounging on the couch. Suddenly Aphrodite gasped and
ripped up a pillow to reveal a…oven glove.
"Enjo, Enjo, Enjo, a
cleaning we will go,
Enjo, Enjo, Enjo, and half
the time you know!
From a chore you hate,
To a chore you love!
All you need is water…and
an oven glove! (A/n- it's actually an Enjo glove but trust Aphrodite to stuff
up.)
No more dust! Not so
sneezy!
No more dirt! Not so
queezy! (sp?)
No more grime save money
and time
Think of what it's worth!
You'll save the earth!"
Sirius starred at his
demented sister in horror. The living room was in a mess, and…their mother had
just cleaned it.
"APHRODITE! In your room
this instant! It took my ages to clean up this room and it takes you 5 minutes
to mess it up. And what are you doing with my oven glove?"
"Saving the world?"
"Go to your room!"
Aphrodite was in her room
for half an hour. Sirius walked by and opened the door to see what she was
doing. She was sitting at her desk breaking crayons.
"Enjo, Enjo, Enjo,
Aphrodite's in trouble oh no!" Sirius snickered.
Aphrodite glared at him as
he closed the door. Before Sirius turned to leave he heard a ripping
sound. He sighed and walked into his
room, shaking his head.
(A few Minutes later…)
"MUM! Sirius ripped up my
pillows!"
A/N: Okay, I know, I know,
there were A/Ns popping up like daisies. Don't remind me.
Disclaimer: JK owns Sirius
and his mother (I think?) and I own Aphrodite and Lucinda. Enjo own their
cleaning gloves and that ad and I own the beanbag and chocolate cake. :-)
*Your probably wondering,
If Sirius is a pureblood (im guessing he is) how does his family know what a TV
is. Well, in my stories Sirius' dad died, well murdered being an auror and all.
Anyway their dad knew a lot of muggles and a lot about muggle things even
though he is a pure blood wizard. Maybe muggle studies came in handy.
