Disclaimer : All characters belongs to J. K. Rowlings, minus professor Tralatong, whose name belongs to the creators of Farscape. All were kidnapped in the dawn, and are not used to make money. They will be returned when I'm done.
See, don't own so don't sue, unless you're interested in my teddy bears collection...
Besides this work will contain people out of character since I am definitely not JK Rowlings, and some strange sentences since I'm French. Not to forget it's an AU... No Peter, and Lily is the fourth Marauder. Still here?
So, on with the show...
Chapter 11 – Of sex, talks and accidents
Sirius and Severus rushed to their room in the North Tower. As soon as they entered, though, Sirius seemed to lost all of his confidence.
"Hum, Sev?" he began hesitantly.
"What, love?" Severus turned from the door he was locking.
"I...I..." Sirius stammered, briefly lifting his eyes from the floor till Severus' knees before casting them back to the floor.
Severus frowned, his brain supplying him with hypothesis like 'he's gonna tell me it was a prank' or 'he married me only to escape Lord Voldemort', 'he doesn't want me', none of them to his liking.
But when he he looked at Sirius, whose whole face was red, including the ears and neck, a little light shone into his brain.
"You've never had sex." He stated.
Sirius' blush escalated.
"How... I mean look at you! I thought that you already had... Nevermind."
Severus' brain was now rolling in the gutter while a small part of it was running into happy circles, waving its arms around and shouting 'Yeah! I got to be his First and Only!'
Sirius reluctantly abandonned his study of the floor and looked at his husband.He winced and took a few steps back, studying a new portion of the floor.
"I'm sorry! I would never have agree to this if I knew you hated me so much." Those softly spoken words startled Severus out of his trance like state.
"What are you babbling now?" he enquired, putting his hands on Sirius' shoulders.
"I'm sorry!" Sirius exclaimed, "It's just that my father hates me and the last time I saw him he had the same look in his eyes you got... So I figured you hated me too." He rushed to finish before hastily adding "I'm sorry" at the sight of his angry husband.
"What?" Severus roared, grabbing both of Sirius' upper arms. Seeing Sirius' wince, he breathed deply for a few seconds before asking "Sirius, did your father... did he touched you? To hug or kiss you?"
"No" Sirius was looking everywhere but not at Severus.
"Sirius, look at me" pleaded Severus "I give you my word that it's not at you I'm angry. Just look at me, please."
Unsure, Severus lifted his eyes, locking them into Severus' own. "Are you positive this was the way your father looked at you?"
"Yes, I was in the kitchen, one night. I had left during my so called birthday party for a walk and was on my way home when it began to rain heavily. As soon as I reached the kitchen, I took off my shirt to try and dry a little. I was sipping at a hot chocolate when my father entered. He stayed a few minutes on the door step, just staring at me with this look in his eyes. He was walking to me when my mother burst in. She looked at him, grabbed his arm and tugged him away. That was the first time I was happy to see my mother, so frighten I was by the look in his eyes." Sirius paused, shivering a little. "It was one month more or less before she..." he never finished his sentence, instead allowed Severus to comfort him.
'Holy Merlin! Talk about cold shower! His father and his mother are as bad as the other!' Severus then swore to himself to make Sirius happy to the best of his abilities. With a decided nod, he lifted Sirius' face to look into his eyes. "Don't spent time dwelling on this, they can't hurt you anymore. And no, I don't hate you, quite the contrary. Let me show you?"
Sirius smiled a little "I'm not as ignorant as you think. Even if I have never ... completed the potion, I still have some ingredients. Here, let me show you." He taunted, drawing Severus into a kiss.
"'Completing the potion?'" a smirking Severus quoted, noticing with pleasure the effects his roaming hands were having on Sirius.
"Fitting for... a future...potions master...no?" Sirius' statement was cut from his nearly breathless state. Severus humed, too occupied with Sirius' throat to answer.
A few minutes later, both were standing naked in front of the other, aroused and exchanging kisses and caresses.
"I used to have fantasies about this" breathed Sirius, playing with a strand of Severus' hair.
"So, let's make this real. What says you we adjourn this 'potion' to the bed?"
"Bed it is, then" laughed Sirius, giving Severus' nose a quick kiss before running towards their bed soon joined by Severus.
The rest of the night was spent learning, mapping and memorizing each other's bodies and prefered caresses, before joining their bodies and napping to recuperate between each bout of lovemaking.
In an unused classroom, both Voldemort and Mac Nair had a good time, both regretting they couldn't be in Severus' place. For now.
Elsewhere, in a prefect room, James and his fiancé were similarly engaged.
Remus had wandered the halls, as he was always more energetic in the evenings, before meeting his boyfriend.
All in all, everybody, save for Lily had an interesting night.
A few weeks later
Two panting boys were lying side by side, naked in front of a fire place.
"We're not going anywhere." Stated Sirius.
"Not in the state we're in, anyway." Quipped Severus.
"Stop joking! You know what I mean!"
"Not my fault you're such a distraction."
"Oh, now, I'm the distraction?" Sirius straddled Severus "Care to make a potion?" he smirked before bending to kiss Severus.
A few minutes later, they were back in the state they had begun in.
"We have a problem here."
"Are you sure?" Severus asked, gliding his hand on Sirius' arm.
"Yep, each time I try to teach you the animagus technics, we end up like that. I think it is time to call for the cavalry."
"If we must... but could we, before..." he asked his husband.
"Insatiable." Sirius sighed.
"Like you're complaining" snickered Severus before rolling to reverse their positions.
"So, that's our problem." Sirius, seated on a desk of the potions classroom finished explaining.
Remus, working on the deaging potion he had missed because of his 'problem' smirked knowingly. His tutor, seeing his expression, bumped him on the head.
"Finish the potion first!"
"Not in public, you two!" teased Sirius.
Everybody burst into laughter, startling James who was just entering.
"Nothing, just a potion story." Explained Erwan, Remus' Ravenclaw tutor.
"Where's Lily?" Remus wanted to know.
"Library. She wanted to study for the next test."
"Meaning we're on our own?" Sirius frowned.
James was confused. Remus took pity on him and explained Sirius and Severus' predicament. James agreed to help, after he managed to stop laughing, which took him five full minutes. They were debating to find a suitable time and place when Lucius ran into the classroom.
"Don't say a word, and whatever happen, don't tell her I'm here." He hastily explained, making his way to stand in the shadows pooling near the walls.
Everybody shrugged, used to Malefoy's eccentric behaviour. The situation was clarified when Narcissa Black appeared on the door step.
"Where is he?" she asked with a sneer, eyeing comptemptiously the assembled people, completely missing Lucius.
"Where is who? You'll have to be more specific, as we are all males here." Chided Remus.
Narcissa looked at him with hatred. "As if I would condescend to speak to one of you... If I was not in dire necessity of knowing Lucius' whereabouts..."
"Such arrogant words" mumbled Erwan.
"I'm not sure she understands half of the words she uses..." participated Sirius.
"Contrary to certain people, I don't associate with trash. Oh! But I forget, you're trash, too!"
Severus had nearly not enough time to intercept his leaping husband. Narcissa smirked "So, the truth hurts? I am proud to say that I can call a spade a spade when I see one."
"Oh" Severus drawled, "And I thought that a lady such as yourself would have nothing to do with gardening, you're shatering my illusions there."
"Unless gardening is the new recquirement to become a lady." James couln't resist to add.
Narcissa looked angrier by the second. She finally draw her wand, aiming at Remus, who was standing in front of the bubbling cauldron.
"Petrificus Totali"
Her spell was nearly over sounded by Lucius' impedimienta. Remus dodged the spell, which collided with the cauldron full of a nearly completed de aging potion. The cauldron tipped and dosed the six boys. Lucius' spell, who had rebounded on Narcissa's shield, went back tothe boys, knocking Narcissa out cold. The spell reacted badly with the potion, blue sparks running onthe floor and the boys.
When Lily reached the potions classroom, she found the six boys unconscious on the floor. Narcissa was nowhere in sight, and there was no evidence she had been here at all.
