iHey, sorry about the uber long update time...I'll try not to let it happen
again (seeing as I already took a year off writing this damn story!)uChapter 3: In the Belly of the Beast/u
Remus, Sirius, Harry, Harry's' belongings and Severus all appeared in Snape Manor at approximately the same time. As Remus and Harry regained their bearings, Severus jumped Sirius.
"You insufferable beast! What was that about? I'm allowing you to stay in my house and you repay my generosity by...by molesting me!" Severus ranted while holding Sirius to the floor.
Sirius chuckled, "All to get a rise out of you Snivellus! Now, what room is Harry going to stay in?"
Severus glared at Sirius and snapped his fingers. Suddenly a light purple house-elf appeared in front of him.
"You called for Violet, Master Severus? What can Violet do to help?" it asked in a squeaky-but-innocent voice.
"Violet, have Mr. Potter's bags brought to the room across the hall from Mr. Blacks quarters please." he replied.
At that Harry's bags and Violet disappeared and chaos returned to the Sitting Room at Snape Manor.
"Happy Black? Now, if you'll excuse me, I have /i to do." Severus spat as he walked out the side door and out to his labs.
Remus looked at Severus' retreating back and rounded on Sirius. At this point Severus was well out of ear-shot and Sirius looked mighty pleased with himself.
"Sirius, look at him! He's being generous to us after everything you put him through at Hogwarts and you go and shoot him down! Allowing us to stay here at his family estates can't be easy...Now get your sorry self out to his labs and apologize for being such an utter moron." he reprimanded.
Harry just looked at Sirius imploringly...as though he wanted his Godfather to apologize to the greasy git.
"/b He deserves everything he gets – and I'm /i than happy to be the delivery boy.../b" Sirius yelled as he walked out the door in the direction of Severus' labs.
Once outside he slammed the door to the main house and walked slowly to the detached labs across the yards, all the while muttering to himself.
"Stupid Remus...making me come out here and walk all the way to his damned labs just to /i even though we both know it's not going to do anything. Why did I agree to come stay here in the first place? Why couldn't I have just taken Harry to my house? Sure it's a little run down and Remus goes there for transformations...and it's in Canada...but besides that it's got a urinal and a fridge! Oh look...I think it's going to rain...perfect!"
Finally after his ever so self enlightening conversation with the air Sirius found himself outside Severus' private labs. He knocked once on the door and screamed, "b Sorry that you're such a tight ass and can't get a joke Snivellus! Maybe if you found a new storage space for your wand – other than up your arse, we might get along better!/b"
Severus heard this and ran to his door, whipping it open and yelling in reply to Sirius' retreating back, "b Fine! Apology accepted. Now, why don't you go lick yourself in some dark corner and leave me the hell alone – you filth BEAST!/b"
Upon hearing this recommendation from his house mate, Sirius actually followed Severus' /i and commenced his cleaning on the expensive leather couch in the study...
