Chapter 3: Sirius Remembers
It had been along day for Sirius Black; he had gone out and done some errands then chased his own tail for a while. He sighed and headed for his bathroom. His sister Delusa had cleaned up the place on her last visit so he was no longer afraid of something jumping out at him. He slowly turned on the faucet and he watched the tub slowly fill up. He added bubbles for the fun of it and bubbles were usually relaxing.
Once the tub had filled he slowly removed his clothing and lazily dropped them on the floor. He climbed into the tub and shivered from the heath. Goosebumps had formed on his skin. The water was hot but his body did not like the sudden change of temperature too much. Once settled into the tub he closed his eyes and sat back.
Slowly he started to drift into a light slumber. I could use some sleep, was the only thought running through his head. Sirius drifted into a deep sleep but this wasn't a normal sleep. Events of the past started to flash before him before his mind settled on an event that happened his sixth year at Hogwarts. It was Delusa's fifth year and the two sisters before him Bella and Cissa were enjoying their seventh year. They weren't twins; they were just born the same year. That was almost the case with him and Delusa. The memory had finally come in clear…
Sirius, James, Remus, and Peter all sat under a tree on the Hogwarts grounds. James was constantly messing up his hair, Remus was reading, Peter was fascinated by James and Sirius was watching his three sisters. Bellatrix and Narcissa were clearly up to something. Delusa was on the sidelines keeping quite. Bellatrix and Narcissa finally separated. Bellatrix went over to Rudolph and Narcissa to Lucious. Sirius snickered slightly at their choices of men. It was their choice though not his. He just wished Narcissa would find someone less stuck up. He knew there was not hope for that, Narcissa and Lucious were two peas in a pod. He had no comment for Bella. She was just stupid.
Sirius's eyes finally stopped on Severus Snape. He could tell James had noticed him by the way James had shifted. Sirius didn't want trouble today but it seemed like James wanted to start some. James started to head towards Severus then suddenly stopped. Delusa had walked over to Snape and was talking to him. Sirius wondered what they were up too. Then, his blood started to boil. Severus Snape just kissed his little sister! James seemed as shocked as Sirius was.
"It looks like Snivellus is dating your sister."
"Shut up James! Delusa just has a crush."
"They are holding hands."
"I can see that James, shut up!"
"It looks like you may become related to Snivellus Snape."
"SHUT UP YOU ARROGANT SPOILED ROTTEN BRAT!"
Everyone around them stopped, it was the first time someone had put James Potter in his place. Some people clapped while others stayed silent. Delusa ran over and was standing over her brother. Sirius looked up and saw that his sister was wearing her stockings above her knees, her skirt was shorter than normal, and she didn't have her vest one just her white shirt and tie. She had been wearing lipstick and he could tell as it was smeared slightly. The rest of it was probably on Sev's lips. Sirius stood up so he could be face to face with his sister.
The anger on his face clearly scared her as she took a step backwards, hands cupped and sitting under her chin. It was a nervous tic of hers. Whenever she was nervous at home she did the same thing. Sirius continued to stare at her and finally lost it, grabbed her green and silver necktie and tugged on it. She gasped and grabbed for his arm. Sirius was in the first stages of a full out rage. He looked his sister over, she was beautiful, beautiful enough to have any man she wanted and she chose Snape!
Delusa had started to pry at his fingers to get loose. Where is your dear Snivellus at? Shouldn't he be coming to your rescue by now? Sirius wanted to scream at her so badly but he kept his cool, what little he had left. He let go of his sister's necktie and stared at her. She was shaking horribly. He smirked and his rage had been pushed to the limit. He grabbed her by the throat and picked her up off the ground. He headed for the lake.
Remus and Peter tried to stop him, even James joined in! During this time , Severus had been talking to Professor Slughorn He then saw Delusa's sparkling hair, he began to run toward the lake, grabbing his wand on the way. He was only worried about Delusa. Sirius had dunked Delusa under the water by the time Severus had arrived the bubbles had stopped
Severus grabbed Sirius by the arm pulling Delusa up in the process and being none to gentle with Sirius. Grabbing Delusa, Severus began to pull her back to shore. He pointed his wand at Sirius. Sirius stood there, staring at this wizard. Severus walked over to Sirius, intending to use the curse he had been working on. He took aim and a deep breath," SECTUM SEMPRA!" A deep slash appeared across Sirius chest. Severus turned from the now bleeding Sirius and walked over to Delusa. He knelt beside her and began the muggle form of CPR, pressing on her chest. She began to cough and expel the water held in her lungs ,breathing again. Albus Dumbledore had finally arrived outside and started toward the accident. Delusa had finally opened her eyes. Severus smiled and helped her stand. His eyes drifted to Delusa's shirt, noting it was transparent his gaze became locked onto her breasts. Before Dumbledore had gotten to the scene of the accident, Delusa had grabbed her brother by the shoulders, being none to gentle about it.
She then threw her hand back and hit Sirius with a back hand Venus and Serena Williams would have been proud of. Sirius's butt hit the ground from the force of the slap. Dumbledore, who had finally arrived, grabbed Delusa, fearing more for Sirius's safety than Delusa, and pulled her away from her brother. Once he had gotten her to calm down, and had healed Sirius, he spoke.
"Sirius I know what happened here and I would like to know what the meaning of this is. Why did you attempt to kill your sister in the lake?"
"Because," Sirius answered, " She's dating That!" Dumbledore looked over at Severus. He smiled at him then looked to Delusa, she was shaking from the cold. Albus removed his cloak and draped it over her tiny shoulders, she smiled at the nice, if a bit senile, old headmaster.
"Sirius, my dear boy, Severus is not an "it" he is a "he". Also his name, as I have said, is Severus not Snivellus. I do expect you and your friends to address him as so from now on." Sirius nodded and watched as Dumbledore walked away.
Sirius looked to Snape and his eyes narrowed. He pointed a finger at him and walked closer, " You had better watch your back Snape or next time you'll be the one speaking with the giant squid."
Sirius awoke in the tub and sat upright. He had been a terrible person back then. He couldn't believe how he had treated his little sister, Severus on the other hand, had deserved what he had gotten. Sirius lay back and the fourth friend drifted in to slumber yet again…
