Chapter 40:Sickening
Serverus couldn't help but be sickened as school began to pick up again. Here it was the 30th of January and this school year had started out as the best and was quickly ending horribly. Lily and James were actually acting...civilized to each other, Peter Pettigrew had actually gotten a date with some 5th year Huffelpuff....but the straw that broke the camels back was Faith and Sirius. Serverus couldn't figure whether to scream, cry or throw up every time he saw them together. They were everything a young teenage couple should be, they were always laughing and having fun and of course the one thing that really burned Serverus up was the snogging.
When school had started up again Serverus just figured that Faith and Sirius were being really nice to each other. It wasn't till he saw them walking to class...hands interlaced that he knew something was up. When he caught them talking and laughing a lot more he became even more suspicious...then one day his suspicion was confirmed. Serverus was just outside enjoying the weather...as dismal as it may have been. Remus was sitting down in the grass, his back against a tree. Sarah had her head resting against his chest and they were whispering something. James and Lily were laughing and splashing water from the lake on one another. Faith was extremely hyper that day due to 24 sugar quills she had at breakfast (All thanks to Sarah)and was skipping around while holding onto Sirius's hand, well it was more like dragging around....nothing to unusual about that. Slightly tweaky but it could be over looked. When Sirius swung Faith around though and then brought her close to him it was anything but normal. Why? Because he kissed her thats why. It wasn't just a little peck on the cheek kinda kiss like Remus and Sarah were always giving each other in between classes this one was different. It was on the lips for one and it was slightly longer than Remus and Sarah's. Serverus didn't watch for very long or else he would have been sick.
"I can't believe...Faith and Sirius." Serverus said as he stared down at his Potions essay on Janurary 30th. When Sarah and Remus had gotten together they were the buzz of the school for a month. It was no different with Faith and Sirius. All he could hear the Slytherin girls talk about was how cute they were together and everything else that made Serverus want to be sick. Serverus looked up from his essay and across the library at Faith. She was tipping her chair back words and reading a book that was resting in between her legs. Her feet were propped underneath the table to keep her from falling. He hadn't talked to her since school had started...he wondered if she even noticed or cared. It was amazing how bitter he was turning over this. Over Faith. The thing that pissed him off the most though was the fact he didn't hate her. He was still in love with her and the fact she was with Sirius just made Serverus's heart ache.
Serverus watched as Sirius snuck up behind Faith's chair. He grabbed the back of it and jerked it back. The book fell onto her chest and she flailed her arms to try and grab the edge of the table. Sirius grabbed the chair and placed it on all fours again. Faith got up and said
"Stop doing that." As she put away the book she was reading. Sirius just laughed and followed her out of the library. Serverus sighed sadly and looked back at his potions essay.
(A/N: Poor Severus...I feel so bad for him...its ok I have other things planned that will make him happy....and mad....and happy again...and....god I really do the whole roller coaster of emotions with them don't I? Hmmm...well Tell me do you feel bad for Serverus? If so what can we do to cheer him up?)
