Professor Snape took the booth fartest to the opposite side of the door before he spoke again, not like I was complaining though.
He looked at me and said, "So would you care to tell me what happened?"
"What do you mean what happened?"I asked with sarcasm at every inch on my voice.
"Mr. Potter what did I tell you just a few minutes ago?"
"I don't know, you tell me..." I replied in the most ungrateful tone i could muster up.
"THAT IS IT YOUNG MAN I AM SICK OF THIS ATTITUDE!!!"
"What attitude might that be professor?" I was so pissed at him because he was sticking his abnormally sized nose in my business. I mean I hadn't even told Dumbledore of what happened while I was at the Dursley's so why would I tell this greasy git.
"Okay, I tried to act civil but obviously that does not work with the eleven year old boy who lived. We are going to my house and we WILL deal with your attitude their."
I just shrugged my shoulders and hesitated but in the end I did follow him and not only because he was pulling me by my ear.
We reached the fireplace in the Leaky Cauldron and he told me to hold on tight and follow his lead, unfortunately I did comply.
As soon as the flames turned green we were shot out of the fireplace at Spinner's end and well it wasn't what I expected. I always thought Snape lived in a cave personally.
The first word he told me or more like yelled was, "SIT, FIRST THINGS FIRST WE HAVE YOUR ATTITUDE PROBLEM TO DEAL WITH."
I just remained oh so calm it was funny.
"WAIT HERE!!!"
Yeah, where was I gonna go? I had no idea where I was hmm...
He came back holding a belt and I just stared at him... What the hell he isn't allowed to touch me with that...thing.
He goes," Come here Potter."
I looked at him and the most simple thing that came to mind was,"No."
He looked agitated, "COME HERE NOW!!!"
I repeated the same thing and he replies, "I WILL GIVE YOU ONE MORE CHANCE TO COME OVER HERE OR I AM GOING OVER THERE!"
Well considering past experiences I knew better than to let him come over there. So I just stood there thinking to myself 'God this is gonna hurt.'
I was within two feet of him and he jerked me to his side and reached for my button on my pants and I was like uh...i don't think so.
He replied so calm, "Do you really want to argue with me some more?"
I shook my head as he pulled my trousers down and then he jacked me over his knee and began spanking me. He continued for 10 minutes before he began lecturing as he administered the spanking.
"YOU WILL CALL ME SIR smack AT ALL TIMES smack AS WELL AS smack TREATING ME smack
AND OTHERS smack WITH RESPECT.smack YOU HAVE smack ACTED LIKE YOU OWN
EVERYONE smack AND YOU HAVE THE RIGHT smack TO TREAT OTHERS smack AS YOU PLEASE
smack BUT SO HELP ME smack IF IT IS THE LAST THING I DO smack YOU WILL LEARN TO SHOW
smack EVERYONE RESPECT IF IT IS THE LAST THING I DO!!!" smack smack smack
I tried not to cry I really did but it felt as if I would never sit again. So as Professor Snape helped me up he rubbed my back until finally the tears deteriorated.
"Now Mr. Potter would you kindly explain to me why you decided to leave your relatives?"
Recognizing the fact that I would soon have a stinging backside if I didn't respond kindly replied, "Sir, they told me that I was worthless and that I didn't deserve food and if I complained once they would not allow me to return to Hogwarts."
"Oh... I will contact the Headmaster and let him decide what to from here but I promise you Harry you will never return to that sorry excuse as a home again."
I just stood there in amazement, "Thank you, sir"
