Chapter Fifteen - Not My Problem

Severus was having a good morning with Harry, they did have a small hiccup while getting dressed. Harry refused to put on pants this morning for a reason Severus did not know of. Not wanting to deal with a meltdown early in the morning, Severus decided just to let the child go around without any pants this morning as he got breakfast ready.

He did make sure to up the temperature in his chambers since the child only had a light shirt and diaper on, he didn't want Harry getting a cold. He got one of the Hogwarts elves to make up a fire, putting a protective shield around it so Harry couldn't go within three feet of the fire.

Breakfast went as smoothly as it could go, Harry ate his eggs and bacon while he threw his toast on the floor when he asked the child to take a few bites of it. Severus did make Harry clean up his mess as a punishment, getting him to pick up the toast and taking it over to the garbage can before Harry was allowed to go and play.

Harry now sat in the living room, playing with his toys as Severus got his drink ready, mixing the potions in that the Healer placed him on when there was a knock at his door.

Severus snapped the lid onto the cup before going to answer the door, only to see Minerva crying.

"No." Severus simply said before making his way over to Harry and handing the child his cup of pumpkin juice.

"Severus," Minerva cried, making her way inside.

"Black got arrested early this morning," Minerva cried even harder, taking out her handkerchief and clearing the tears from her eyes.

"They found a black market wand on him. He could go back to Azkaban for up to two years," Minerva explained.

"Not my problem," Severus spoke, as he sat down on the couch across from Harry. He was done with Black. Everything he did for the man was for nothing.

Severus got the man out of Azkaban and in return, he got spat on by the man. Throwing his freedom away like it was nothing. The man didn't care about Harry, he didn't even care about himself. Black knew that the Ministry would do random searches and yet he decided to keep the wand.

"You have to talk to Remus," Minerva cried, sitting down on one of the couches.

"No I don't, I am done being everyone's babysitter. Remus is a big boy and can make his own decisions," Severus said, just wanting to get back to the way things were before the wolf and the dog came into the picture.

"He is closing himself off again. Please, Severus, you have to convince him to stay...Lily would."

"That's vile" Severus commented, he hated when people used Lily's name in vain to get him to do stuff that he didn't want to do.

It wasn't his problem that the wolf wanted to move back to the middle of nowhere, in a small hut, and pretend that he didn't exist.

"If you won't do it for her then do it for Harry. You see how they are with each other. Remus already lost so much, don't make him lose Harry too," Minerva begged. She couldn't bear to watch Remus go back into hiding because of a stupid mistake that Black made.

She could remember back in school Remus was never his own person. He was either following James or Black around, doing whatever they said they would be doing for the day. She knew how lost Remus must be feeling right now. He got one of his best friends back after seven years only to have him taken away again.

"Fine... I will go and talk to him but I am not promising anything. I can't force the man to stay," Severus spoke.

"Thank you, Severus, he's in his office packing his stuff up, " Minerva told.

Severus looked over at Minerva, he couldn't believe it, the woman wanted him to go now.

"I can't...Harry won't put on pants this morning," Severus said hoping he could excuse himself from going.

"...you can travel by floo," Minerva said after a moment of confusion.

Severus let out a long sigh, rubbing his eyes a little before he stood up, grabbing some of Harry's toys and placing them into the diaper bag. He also went into his potion lab and grabbed up a potion, placing it into the diaper bag along with everything else before going back for Harry.

"There is no living with you " Severus commented before picking Harry up and going through the floo.
