The New Snape
Electra woke up the next morning with a start, hitting Sirius in the chest waking him up as well choking. She almost jumped out of bed when she heard, but once she turned round and saw who it was she smiled slightly at him and sat back down on the edge of the bed.
"Sorry Sirius, are you alright?" Electra asked.
"I was going to ask you the same thing." Sirius told her and then had a swing of water.
"What do you mean...and wait a minute what are you doing here?" Electra asked him.
Sirius just looked at her, and then got up and walked round the bed. "You don't remember? Well you must have been tired then, maybe you should get some more sleep."
"What, I'm fine thanks." Electra told him, walking across the room. "You arrived last night, sorry about that; I have been a bit tired this week. But I'm fine now."
Electra went through to the bathroom not thinking much about it, but Sirius was he scanned round her room as though looking for any sign that something might be wrong; but couldn't find anything.
"Sirius you can use the bath room if you like now." Electra told him as she came back out, and then stopped smiling at him while he stood there holding her note book.
"Right thanks." Sirius said putting it quickly back down on the table.
"I'll get dressed and meet you down there." Electra told him. "You know what Remus is like, doesn't what us seen together. Oh so make sure no one sees you coming out of here."
"Of course, I'll try my best. But for my next visit maybe I should just lend Harry's cloak." Sirius said smiling poking his head out of the bathroom.
"There's an idea, I'm sure he would you know; and it'll make Remus somewhat happy, maybe not you going around invisible but no one will know we're together." Electra said as she got dressed. "As he told you how long we have to keep this up for?"
"Nope, you guess is as good as mine." Sirius told her.
"Right I'm going; I'll meet you down there." Electra shouted through a couple of minutes later.
"I won't be long behind you." Sirius told her.
Electra left her room and made her way down the Great Hall for breakfast, on her way in she meet Severus who smiled at her, she really didn't remember him smiling this much when she was at school; anyway she shrugged it off and smiled back at him as they walked in together and up to the high table.
Electra sat down next to Remus, with Severus on her other side; she lead over to talk to him without Severus hearing her.
"I'm sorry about last night; I was really tired I don't even remember seeing Sirius last night before I went to sleep." Electra told him, Remus looked at her a little worried. "I'm fine, seriously; anyway you should be thinking about yourself considering tonight."
"I'm fine as well, I've got the potion from Severus and Sirius is staying as well." Remus told her.
"I wish I could change into something, because you won't let me see you even with the potion." Electra said.
"No, its best that you just stay away." Remus told her firmly.
"Fine." Electra said, and turned back to eat her breakfast.
Sirius came down about ten minutes later, as he walked up in-between the tables to the teachers table all the student's started to whisper which he tried to ignore; he didn't used to mind it when he was at school but this was different and he knew it. When he looked up at the table, he wasn't pleased to see Electra sat next to Snape. He walked along and sat down on Remus' other side in the empty seat, but he did notice something different about Snape while he was passing.
"He's washed his hair." Sirius said to Remus. "What's he up too?"
"I don't know, and I'm not sure I want to know." Remus told him. "Electra told him to wash his hair so he did."
"What?" Sirius asked as he lead forward to look at the two of them, Severus seemed a lot pleasanter then normal; which was even weirder he preferred Snape how he knew him and not coming onto his girl.
"Do you have plans for today?" Severus asked her.
"Well..." Electra started.
"Yes she does." Sirius told him, making Remus glare at him.
Severus raised an eyebrow as he looked along the tabled at him. "Mr Black, what could you possibly want with an Auror?"
"Mr Black, why the hell are you calling me Mr Black; are you trying to make yourself look good or something?" Sirius said.
"I'm busy today, but thanks maybe another time." Electra told him, an dthen turned to Remus and Sirius. "I'm sure I'll see you later." Then she pushed her chair back and left them.
"Mr Black please, he's never called me that; why the hell is he starting now?" Sirius demanded. "He better not try anything, I mean it."
"You're not the only one Padfoot who doesn't want him anywhere near her." Remus told him. "He doesn't he know that I'm her brother, well I would have thought he would have worked it out; but we never saw him over the summer."
"Personally I was quite glad that I didn't see him." Sirius said. "I just wished that I didn't have to see him all over her; especially now that I'm not aloud to do anything." And then added with a mischievous look plastid across his face. "Maybe we could."
"Padfoot we're not teenagers now, we're grown adults." Remus told him firmly.
"I'll let you think about it then." Sirius told him smiling, knowing that he would come around because he always did.
***
Electra felt much better after the weekend even though she had been busy, with marking and school work and also her Auror paper work; she felt much better though she put it down to speeding time with Sirius.
But it was Monday morning and he had to go, she wasn't the only one sorry to see him go. But what made it worst that she had to say goodbye to him in private because no one was aloud to know about them.
Electra was walking down the corridor carrying a couple of books she had just got from the library for Remus when Severus walked up to her and stopped right in front of her, she smiled slightly at him.
"Hi, if you don't mind but I do need to get these to Remus; so could you..." Electra asked.
He smiled back at her, and then took the books off of her. "Of course, are you going to his office?"
"Yeah I am." Electra answered following him up the corridor.
When they reached Remus' office, Electra took the books back off him; but he stopped her from going inside.
"I'll see you tonight." Severus said.
"What?" Electra asked a little confused about his statement, she couldn't remember making plans to see him.
"Well I haven't seen you all week, so I..." Severus tried to explain.
"It depends how busy I am." Electra told him, moving back into the door and pushing it open. "Thanks." And quickly went inside and shut the door behind her.
"Snape again." Remus said as she turned round.
"He's been acting weird as someone put a happy spell on him or something, or switched bodies?" Harry asked sat at Remus' desk with Ron and Hermione on either side of him.
"Maybe...oh I don't know; why can't I tell him considering that he's supposed to be a member of the Order?" Electra asked as she put the books down on his desk.
"We can't tell him, if he would have come round over the summer then he would have been told; but not now because someone might find out." Remus answered. "I don't like watching him with you either; and Sirius well, you know what he's like."
"Yeah, but in the mean time I've got to play nice with Severus." Electra said. "Yeah he seems a lot nicer and friendlier then I remember, but he isn't who I would choose to spend my free time with."
"I'll talk to Dumbledore about it." Remus told her.
"Thank you." Electra said sounding very relieved.
Electra didn't go down to see Severus that night, but he went up to her room to see where she was but she wasn't there either; so he went inside he walked through her room and into her bedroom. He saw a glass stood by her bed, he walked over and pulled a vial out of her cloak and coated the rim of the glass with the powder then put it back down.
Electra came back to her quarter's about an hour after he left, she didn't even noticed that anyone had been in her room as she walked through and quickly changed. She picked up the glass and was about to take a swing when she realised that there was nothing in it she had finished it before she went to see Remus, so she went through to the bathroom and filled it with water; she drank it down in one.
She filled the glass again and then looked up; she looked a little blurry in the mirror as she stepped back away from it. Then her vision started to go black and fade out, she dropped the glass making it smash at her feet slashing water up her legs before she collapsed.
Next morning Remus was getting quite annoyed because Electra had never come down for breakfast and she had missed their first two lessons, and no one had seen her since last night.
As Remus was coming out of his classroom he bumped into Severus the last person he wanted to see right now.
"Not now, and she isn't here." Remus shot at him as he tried to get past.
"Was she called away, or wasn't she feeling too good?" Severus asked sounding concerned.
"I don't know, but she was fine when I saw her last; now if you don't mind I'm going to check on her." Remus told him trying to get past, but Severus still wouldn't let.
"Why don't I do that, you have a class to teach; see here they are now." Severus said as a group of students came around the corning talking loudly.
"No, maybe..." Remus tried to say.
"Its alright, it'll be my pleasure." Severus said, and turned round leaving an even more annoyed Remus at his classroom door.
Severus knocked softly on Electra's door but no one answered so he opened the door and walked slowly in, there was no one in the main room so he went through to her bedroom; she wasn't there either he was starting to worry slightly now but stopped as soon as he saw her on the floor of the bathroom. He smiled to himself as he bent down, then changed his expression so it looked quite worried.
He gently touched her shoulder as he took in what she was wearing and the small cuts on her bare legs. She jumped awake at his touch and kicked him in the leg, she quickly turned round and saw Severus kneeled beside her and moved away; but in doing so she cut her legs farer.
"Be careful I didn't clear the broken glass." Severus told her. "I just fold you like this are you alright; you've had everyone quite worried about you."
Electra just looked at him and then looked down at herself, and quickly pulled the hem of her nightdress down covering as much as she could which wasn't really a lot.
Severus reached out to help her up off the floor, she reluctantly gave him her hand and he helped her through to her bedroom and sat down on her bed.
"I don't know what came over me, it isn't really like me...perhaps I'm coming down with something." Electra said. "Why did you come to see if I was alright, where's Remus?"
"You should lay down, and I'll get Madam Promfery to come down and take a look at you." Severus told her, as she did as she was told. "Oh Remus had a class so he sent me to check on you."
Electra looked at him and tried her hardest to hide her surprise, because that didn't sound right at all he would have sent anyone else but not Severus; but her mind didn't really want to think about much it was still a little blurry.
"I'll get you some water, and clear up the glass for you." Severus told her as he walked through to her bathroom, he pulled out his wand and cleared up all of the glass repairing it and then took the veil out of his cloak again and coated the glass and then filled it with water. He went back through and gave her the glass of water.
She smiled at him and took the glass off of him, she drank half of it; but it didn't really make her feel any better infact it just made her feel worst.
"You should drink all of it; it'll make you feel better." Severus told her watching her drink the rest of the water.
Everything started to go black again; she dropped the now empty glass and was out again. Severus smiled to himself, as he picked the glass up and put it on the side.
"Don't worry, it'll be over soon." Severus whispered to her and kissed her on the forehead.
He left her room and went straight to see Remus, who was coming up the corridor to meet him.
"She's feeling a little off, so she's gone back to bed; I've called Madam Pomfery down for her." Severus told him. "She said that she just wants to be left alone, so maybe you should leave her."
"But..." Remus said, but what could he say; he didn't really have any rights according to him to go and see her still so he aloud himself to be lead away down to the Great Hall for lunch.
