Snape's Comment
Harry held his breath in anticipation as James, Sirius and Lupin all wandered over towards where Snape was sitting at the lake-side, his huge nose almost touching the pages of the book he was reading, with Wormtail trailing behind.
"All right there Snivellus?" said Sirius in a mocking voice. Snape looked up and then looked away disgusted.
"Go away," he muttered, his long greasy hair falling into his face. Sirius carried on grinning but James, Harry soon noticed, looked very uncomfortable and was shifting from one foot to the other.
This wasn't the James Potter Harry had seen in Snape's Pensieve last year. His father seemed somewhat quieter and less eager to talk.
"What are you reading there Snivellus? A History of Dark Magic and How to Use it?" joked Sirius, cracking up laughing. James however was not joining in with the laughing. He was staring nervously at Lily and her friends.
"Hmmm, I haven't had a good laugh in ages. What shall it be Prongs? Bat-Bogey hex? Leg-locker charm?" asked Sirius, not taking his eyes form Snape who was shuffling along the grass, as though he was going to make a run for it.
"Come on Padfoot, leave it. I don' want to mess around and do kid's stuff," said James, his eyes darting once again to were Lily was sat.
"Oh I get it. Being a good boy for Evan's still? Not every other seventh year does what their girlfriend's tell them, you know," said Sirius with a sigh.
Girlfriend, thought Harry, this is brilliant! My Mum and Dad are going out!
"James! What are you doing?"
Harry watched as his mother got to her feet and ran over to were James, Lupin Sirius and Wormtail were gathered, looking incredibly annoyed.
"Nothing, Lily, I swear," said James, smiling at Lily.
"I don't need you watching over me, you filthy disgusting little mud blood!" spat Snape, getting to his feet.
Within a second, James had pulled his wand form his robes and was now pointing it directly at Snape's chest. Snape's chest rose and fell as he breathed slowly.
"Call her that again Snivellus, and I'll have to return to my old ways," said James in a threatening way. Snape looked down his hooked nose at James and turned away without another word. He'd walked a few feet before he whispered something.
"Mud blood lover." James rushed forward and grabbed Snape by his shoulder and spun him around.
"What did you call me?"
"A mud blood lover. That girl is a dirty mud blood," said Snape briskly. James once again pointed his wand at Snape's heart, his hand shaking.
"I didn't want to do this Snape..."
