Chapter one-And Thus Begins Our Summer Vacation
Drusilla sat contemplating in her favorite chair. Which just happened to be the one Severus was deeply hurt by. She liked to use it for thinking how to torture helpless muggles and mudbloods on the streets. However, today, she sat there for a different reason. Harry Potter would be staying with her for the next year. She didn't mind this at all. She liked Harry like one of her own sons. Her problem was how to get her husband not to hate her forever. She heard her phone ring, and jumped at the sound.
"Hey, you haven't called me!" said her evil twin, Kari.
"That's because I don't know how." She replied.
"I thought Severus was going to teach you."
"He will. He isn't home yet."
"You mean you haven't told him yet!?"
"NO!"
"Oh. I'll leave, then."
"Good."
When Drusilla finally figured out how to hang up the phone, she sat on her windowsill, waiting for Severus. Right when she shut her eyes, she heard the door slam followed by a pair of feet running up the stairs. Severus opened the door violently.
"Is anything wrong?" Drusilla asked, sucking up.
"No. Am I acting like it?" he asked.
"So your really in a good mood?" she replied hopefully.
"Yes… why?"
"Becauseharry'scomingtostaywithusduringthesummer." She forced out quickly and quietly.
"WHAT!?"
"Nothing of importance."
"I heard you, but… why!?"
"He's not safe with muggles anymore."
"Then why didn't he go with his bloody godparents!?"
"Because he doesn't even know about Kari, and no one knows where they are, except for her."
"So why don't you bloody ask her!?"
"Daddy won't let him stay there. He thinks people would find out where he is, and that would present another problem."
"What? That that bloody git gets caught? What a tragedy." Severus said sarcastically.
"Oh, stop. We're focusing on Harry here, not Sirius."
"Oh joy. The two people I truly hate."
"I thought that was James and Sirius."
"Harry is the offspring. Close enough. I don't care, just, you're taking care of him, not me."
"No we are. And I don't care what you think just because James saved your life and you can't accept that fact!" Drusilla yelled. Severus left. "Well, at least he agreed." She said happily to herself while preparing the meal for dinner.

"Kari!" Sirius yelled from down stairs.
"Yes?" Kari replied.
"I'm hungry!"
"Oh you poor baby. Go make something." Kari said, popping up behind him. "I have to tell you something anyway. Now don't get mad because I'm sure Dumbledore has a perfectly good reason for this."
"What?" Sirius asked.
"Dumbledore wants Harry to stay with Drusilla and Snape over the summer."
"You're kidding. Tell me your kidding."
"No I'm not I just talked to Dru and that's what he said she should do. Send him a letter saying that he was staying with her and Snape over the summer and that they would pick him up at 12 o' clock on Sunday."
"NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sirius said as he fell to the floor by his wife's feet. She stared down at him with a frown then picked him up and smiled and said "Now Dru isn't that bad. She does know how to take care of kids you know."
" It's not Dru I'm worried about. It's that greasy hair, self-centered, mean, racist, hooked-nose git I'm worried about."
"Well if you're so worried about him then why don't you stay there with him?" Kari said.
"Very Funny Kari. Quite the most amusing thing I've ever heard in my lifespan." Sirius said with a sneer on his face.
"Please don't talk like that it scares me."

Harry waited by his window patiently while looking for his owl, Hedwig, to come back with a letter from Sirius, his godfather. He sat there examining a tree when he saw a phoenix come towards him with a letter in its beak.
"Why, is that for me beauty? Thank you." He said, taking the letter out of its beak.
Dear Harry,
So sorry to disturb you on your wonderful vacation with your aunt, uncle, and cousin but the headmaster demands that you stay with my wife and I for the rest of the summer holidays. My wife should be there to take you here. Leave a note for your 'family' so they don't think you ran away.
Sincerely,
Severus R. Snape
"But there was only a phoenix here…" He thought out loud looking up towards where the bird should have been.
