CHAPTER 2: WHAT A WEDDING!
Severus stood nervously fidgeting, waiting for the ceremony to start. He was all by himself as James, Sirius and Remus where going to come in with the bridesmaids. Severus glanced around looking at those who had come to the wedding. He saw his mother, Serenity, who looked as if she was going to cry. Beside her sat Lily's mom, Violet. The women in the Evans family had the tradition of being named after flowers. Next to Violet sat Lily's sister, Petunia. His lips curled in distaste. He had never liked the woman who had a deep hate for anything to do with magic. Beside the horse-like woman sat her husband, Vernon Dursley. The man was beefy with hardly any neck. Severus moved his gaze away from the revolting couple and spotted his previous potions professor and mentor Rudolf Shirogane. (Don't own Shirogane) His professor had originally been from Asia but had transferred to Hogwarts a year before he started attending school there. He had really like his professor and it was him who had helped him get his Masters in potions. He had told Severus that if he successfully completed the program he would be the youngest potions master in fifty years. Giving his professor a small smile Severus continued looking at those who had gathered there. He saw his friend Lucius Malfoy. Lucius was head over heals in love with one of their former classmates Narcissa Black, who had been a Ravenclaw. The two had started dating right after they finished school. He knew that Lucius' dream was to have a family but the man had been unable to conceive after he had suffered from the terminal muggle illness, cancer. Since the wizarding methods of treating cancer where far more superior to their muggle counterparts Lucius had been cured but it had rendered him infertile. The man had been devastated. At least now he looked like he was back to his normal self. Severus spotted a few more of his and the rest of the marauders friends as well as a few more of Lily's friends.
Severus heard the music start and turned to face the front. James was leading the procession with Sabrina Boerta, Lily's best friend. Next Sirius came with Gina Greenburg, Lily's youngest cousin, as his partner. Finally Remus came with Nymphronda Tonks, Lily's second best friend and Remus' love interest. His three best men stood beside him while the three bridesmaids stood on the other side waiting for the wedding march to begin.
"You nervous?" asked James from his side.
"No I just enjoy shaking like a leaf, what do you think?" he answered sarcastically.
"Don't worry everything will go fine"
All conversation stopped when the when the wedding march began playing. Everyone stood and faced the back as Tom led Lily down the aisle. Severus sucked in a breath. Lily had put her long wavy red hair in a loose bun with a few strands loose, which framed her face. Her eyes were outlined in a dark blue bringing out her vivid emerald green eyes. She had applied a silver eye shadow and soft pink lipstick, which brought out most of her natural beauty. Lily's floor length dress was not too tight fitting but brought out her curves nicely. The bodice was a cream with silver trimmings while the rest of the dress was made of a pale white lace, which whispered softly as she walked. All in all Lily looked like Cinderella at the ball and Severus just wanted to get the wedding over and done with so he could sweep her off her feet and have her all to himself. The whole procession to the front took way too long in Severus' opinion but Lily was finally at the front with him at the alter. Finally the ceremony could start and they would officially be Mr. and Mrs. Severus Snape.
"We are gathered here today to witness the joining of Severus Antonio Snape and Lily Anne Marie Evans in holy matrimony. These two young people have been in love for the whole time they attended Hogwarts, as all their closest friends and family know all too well. If anyone objects to the joining of these two wonderful people speak now or forever hold your peace." Said the minister.
Severus held his breath; his father had wholly disapproved of his marriage to Lily and had decided not come to the wedding. Suddenly the doors to the chapel burst open and admitted Severus' father Galileo Matador Snape. The man looked drunk and had his wand in hand not to mention a mad glint in his eyes.
"I told you that I will not let you marry the mudblood Severus and I mean what I say. Crucio" Severus collapsed to his knees as the curse hit him. Everyone sat/stood frozen in shock as they watched the deranged man hold the curse on his son yet Severus did not scream. It was almost as if he were used to the pain. Galileo soon got bored of just putting his son under the crutacius and decided to use another spell, one that was very rarely used because of the extreme pain it caused. The pain was ten times worse than the crutacius.
"Facio dolor!"
The spell shot was lavender purple and hit Severus in the chest. The pain was something Severus had never experienced before and he let out a torturous scream. Galileo laughed as his son lay screaming on the floor. He let up the curse and Severus was left gasping on the floor, faint shudders racking his body.
"Now to deal with the mudblood." He slurred as he moved his eyes away from his son. James, Remus, Tom and Sirius moved in front of Lily wands drawn
"I won't let you hurt Lily you bastard." Said James, his voice deadly calm. "She is meant to be Mrs. Severus Snape and that is who she will be, whether we have to chop you to pieces or not"
"No mudblood will have my name. Facio dolor"
The spell shot past James and hit Remus, who was standing in front of Lily. He fell down and started screaming from the pain. The curse was lifted as soon as Remus passed out. Galileo then smirked.
"Glacialis spectro" he said freezing everyone there except Lily and Severus. There was nothing they could do as the sat/stood watching Galileo, Severus and Lily.
"What have I ever done to make you hate the fact that Severus and I are getting married?" asked Lily boldly
"You have corrupted my son so it is time to make you pay. Goodbye you were such a pretty thing too. Avada," began Galileo.
Lily stood her ground while tears fell down her face. 'Well I guess this is it' she thought as she saw the green light forming at the tip of Galileo's wand. 'Goodbye Sev I loved you so much! I guess it was never meant to be' "kedav-" the spell was never finished as Severus had shot the crutacius at his father.
"I.WILL.NOT.LET.YOU.HARM.MY.SOON.TO.BE.WIFE.FATHER." said Severus in a calm but deadly voice. He spat father as if it were a curse. "Lily and I were meant to be together. If it means I have to kill you then so be it!"
"You are a disappointment Severus Antonio Snape. You're no son of mine. Facio dolor!" Severus dodged the lavender curse.
"Crucio" shouted Severus. Galileo managed to dodge most of the spell but got caught by his shoulder. He gritted his teeth against the pain.
"You are sooo dead brat, Avada Kedavra" Severus dodged the spell thrown at him. Galileo saw Severus was too distracted to notice anything else except dodging his spells. Now was his chance to get the mudblood.
"You will regret the day you went against my orders Severus. Say goodbye. Glacialis spectro" Severus stood rooted to the spot, frozen in his father's spell "such a shame Avada Kedavra"
The spell shot towards Severus but before it hit his body it curved and headed to Lily. "Severus!" she screamed as the green spell shot towards her.
'No you will not win' thought Severus 'LILY!'
Suddenly there was a bright white light, as Severus broke free from his father's spell. "Protego" he shouted. A midnight blue shield appeared around Lily, blocking the curse directed at her. Severus then turned to his father. All he could see was red rage. The bastard had tried to kill his wife.
"You will pay for that," he drawled. Severus then put a shield around them barely registering that he was using wandless magic. Everyone was watching in awe and horror. Albus also watched with an all too familiar twinkle in his eyes. The marauders, including Remus who had awoken from his unconscious state when the powerful surge of energy had occurred, also watched in amazed horror. They had known Severus was powerful but they never thought it was to this level.
"So father" drawled Severus "You think it is funny to try and ruin the most important day of my life. To try and kill the woman I love just so I can follow your evil purposes. Well now I am going to end this once and for all. I am going to send you to the hell you belong to. Crucio"
And so the duel between father and son began. Galileo was dodging the spells but a few did catch him at intervals. Severus just kept shooting in a blind rage. This... this thing had tried to harm Lily HIS Lily and he was not going to let him get away with it. Finally Galileo and Severus seemed to tire although Severus was the more energetic of the two.
"Stupefy" Severus cried. The spell caught Galileo in the leg and he fell down with a dull thunk. Severus trained his wand onto his father and was about to utter the killing curse when Lily ran to him and clutched his arm.
"No don't do it Sev! I'm not hurt, just leave it be" She pleaded. Severus looked into Lily's watery green eyes and dropped his wand and the shield. He undid the stunning curse on his father and turned away with Lily. Galileo slowly trained his wand on his son.
"You made a mistake by letting me live Severus now you will die Avada Kedavra!"
The curse hit Severus in the back and with a pain-filled scream he fell down unconscious. However it rebounded of his body and hit Galileo instantly killing him. The spell, which Galileo had placed on everyone, broke and instantaneously Violet, Serenity and the marauders rushed to Severus' side. James and Remus pulled a near hysterical Lily from Severus as Tom and Sirius attempted to calm the older women. Albus kneeled next to Severus' body and searched for a pulse. He gasped in shock as he found a faint one.
"GET ME POPPY!" he bellowed as he picked up Severus' limp body. He carried him back to the dressing room where he placed him on the couch and covered him with a light blanket. The door to the dressing room burst open and admitted a very hysterical Lily, Poppy Pomfrey, a very much disheveled looking James followed closely by Remus. Tom and Sirius had opted to take the two mothers into Lily's dressing room and try and restore calm in the chapel.
"How's Severus?" cried Lily after Poppy finished her examination.
"Well he's alive thankfully and just needs a few hours rest. He needs to take the potion I have left when he wakes up to ensure there is no nerve damage. Remus I want you to take that potion as well. Do I make myself clear?" she said eyeing everyone carefully.
"Yes thank you Poppy, would you like to stay for the rest of the wedding?" Asked Albus as everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"No thank you, I have to get back to my cousin's. She's expecting her baby any day now and wanted me there with her. I'll be back to check up on Severus' progress soon. And congratulations Lily I know you and Severus will be very happy."
"Thank you Poppy for everything you've done for us. I don't know how we'll be able to repay you" Lily said with a watery smile
"Oh no dear I'm just happy to help," replied Poppy and with that she disapperated.
"Let me go and tell everyone that Severus will be alright. Do you want us to postpone the wedding Lily?" asked James as he headed for the door.
"No need for that as I am awake and ready to get the show on the road so to speak" said Severus hoarsely.
"Severus oh you're awake! You need your rest mister. We can postpone the wedding until tomorrow or until you are stronger" Lily said firmly.
"No Lils I have waited for this for so long that I don't want to wait any longer." Severus pleaded with her.
"Ok we'll do it after you've had a bit more of a rest. Now go to sleep my love and we'll get married when you awaken." Lily said gently. Severus nodded and was out like a light again.
5 hours later Severus and Lily were finally wed. They were now at the reception enjoying their first dance together as Mr. and Mrs. Severus Snape. As they were gliding around the room James laid his head on Sirius' shoulder.
"They sure do look happy don't they?" he asked watching their happy friends. Sirius turned to face his lover. (A/N surprise! Don't worry, very slight, practically non-existent slash)
"Yah they do love. They certainly deserve it. Did you hear? Sev wants us, all of us, to move in with him and Lily at Snape manor. His mother doesn't want to live there anymore than she has to and has bought a cottage near the coast. With his father dead he has now inherited the place. It should be fun, all of us living under the same roof. The place has already been changed to suit Severus, courtesy of his mom and we can move in and house sit while the lovebirds are on their honeymoon. Think of the mischief we can get into" Sirius said with a slightly evil grin. James gave him an evil grin of his own before he gave him a peck on the lips and went to go and chat with Remus. Tom joined Sirius and steered him towards the buffet table.
"Is the you-know-what set up?" whispered Tom into Sirius' ear. Sirius nodded
"Yes it's due to start just as soon as they finish their dance." Just then the music finished and Lily and Severus walked off the dance floor. "Look there's Remus now." Sirius and Tom left and went to join James, who had conjured a bowl of popcorn, in the front row of seats.
"Ladies and gentlemen please take a seat as we have a little something special to show you in honour of our dear friend Severus Snape." Said Remus "oh and Sev this is all James, Tom and Sirius' idea if you want to kill anyone it's them" Remus stepped down from the podium and took a seat next to Tonks. Suddenly the lights dimmed and a picture of the Slytherin boys' dorm was seen. Severus groaned.
"I don't believe they actually recorded this. They are so dead after the show."
"What's this all about Sev?" asked Lily curiously
"The end of my life as I know it." Answered Severus.
(Movie)
16-year-old Severus Snape lay fast asleep in his bed snoring slightly. I mean what other 16 year old boy would not love to sleep in on a Saturday especially after a grueling night of tutorial for a potions master certificate. Tom Riddle, Sirius Black, James Potter and Remus Lupin that's who. Tom had gone and fetched the Gryffindors that morning just to play a prank on their fellow marauder. The four snickered quietly as Severus gave an almighty snore and rolled onto his side.
"Are you ready guys?" asked Tom eager to get the party started.
"Yep on the count of three one…two…three" replied Remus.
They said the incantation and still snickering they left the room and went to the great hall to see their plan put into motion.
A little while later Severus entered the great hall still yawning. Even though each house had its own table it had become a regular occurrence for either the Gryffindor marauders to sit at the Slytherin table or visa versa. Today Tom and Severus were situated at Gryffindor table.
"Morning Sal!" the marauders chorused. Severus just grumbled in response. He was not a morning person. He grabbed a cup of coffee and after downing the beverage felt his body become more alive. However he was greeted with snickers from his comrades. He shrugged it off as nothing as his girlfriend, Lily Evans, sat down beside him.
"Morning honey" he said giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"Morning Sevvie" she replied knowing he hated that nickname. Severus grimaced slightly but returned to the ever-daunting task of locating toast on the table. Lily glanced up at her boyfriend, who never ate much at breakfast, and smiled when she saw his hair. It was bright neon green and clashed horribly with his blue robes. She looked to the rest of the marauders with a look that clearly said 'you are so dead when he finds out' knowing how paranoid Severus was about his hair. She often braided it for him when he asked her to. She silently shook her head and went back to her own breakfast.
Breakfast was nearly finished when Severus noticed something was wrong with his hair. He had bent over to retrieve the fork he had dropped when some of his hair fell into his face. He grabbed it and pulled it so he could see it better. It looked green, not only that but neon green.
"Lily can I please lend your mirror?" Severus asked panic slowly making its way through his body.
"Sure Sevvie" she said with a smile knowing full well what was going to happen now. The marauders and the rest of the school also watched in anticipation, knowing full well what Severus' reaction was going to be like. It seemed even the teachers were waiting in anticipation. They certainly weren't disappointed.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY HAIR! JAMES, REMUS, TOM, AND SIRIUS YOU GUYS ARE SO DEAD!"
And so the biggest war Hogwarts had ever seen inside her walls began. Well you can't exactly call it a war as a neon green haired Severus chased his friends around Gryffindor table shouting all the harmless curses he could think of.
"James pant this is pant all your pant FAULT!" yelled Sirius as they were chased around the table for the 36th time " do something before I collapse"
"Okay when we reach Arthur Wesley we will initiate plan 46. Pass it on to the others"
Soon enough they had reached the point were Arthur was seated. They turned around and uttered the spell necessary for the execution of plan 46. They quickly turned around and started running for they knew that if they hung around too long they would not live long enough to finish their last year at Hogwarts. A loud thunk was heard as Severus slipped on his own invention, too slippery water, and fell flat on his face. A cry of outrage was all that was heard as the film ended.
(End movie)
Severus was beet-red by the time the film was finished and Remus had once again taken the stand. He waited until the laughter in the hall had died down.
"That just goes to show you folks that messing with Severus Snape is something that can end in laughter and quite a few visits to the hospital wing. Severus you are such a great friend who obsesses about his hair a bit too much. I wish you all the happiness I know you'll receive with Lily. Lily you were the one to comfort me when I couldn't talk to anyone else. For that I am grateful. I wish you all the best in your marriage and look forward to living with you and your very funny husband. So let us raise our glasses to Severus and Lily"
A chorus of 'to Severus and Lily' rang out through the hall as everyone toasted to the newly weds. The reception continued well into the afternoon until Severus had to announce their departure.
"Thank you everyone for joining us on our very special day. We have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves but I'm afraid Lily and I have to take our leave if we want to be in France for our honeymoon. Sirius, Tom, James and Remus I am counting on you to keep the house tidy for our return or a plague of unfortunate events shall befall you." He said with a chuckle "again thank you and we wish you well come on Lils the car is waiting"
The newly weds ran out of the room were everyone sprayed them with rice. Soon everyone was gathered outside bidding them farewell. Lily threw her bouquet out of the window just as the limo started to move. Tonks caught it. Soon the limo was out of site and the guest had headed home. Sirius and the rest of the marauders slumped into the chairs lining the wall. They sat in silence until Tom exclaimed
"WHAT A WEDDING!"
There were many murmurs of agreement as the weary pranksters' disapperated to their new home.
