(Set in seventh year)
Severus Snape was eating breakfast in the great hall. The eggs reminded him of his mother's cakes. Those rare times when his father came home in a good mood. Or his father wouldn't be home, his mother would sometimes bake. Severus turned his head toward Lily. She was talking to James. He turned his head back. Suddenly, Severus had the urge to vomit. He quickly ran to the bathroom. While he was kneeling over the toilet, he felt a sharp pain go through him and he blacked out.
Severus woke up a few hours later but something felt...different. He felt comfortable. Severus opened his eyes, and to his horror, he saw red and gold. And on top of that, he was in a cradle. James Potter walked in. "Oy, Sirius, he's awake." He said before someone picked the baby up.
Severus looked up to see Sirius Black was the one who picked him up. He remembered the pain he felt.
Sirius held him, and then Severus noticed a bottle in his hand.
Sirius had to force the bottle in Severus' mouth so he would drink it.
Severus observed the milk was warm and did start to fill him up.
When Severus was done, Sirius started to rub his back.
Severus twitched from a weird feeling in his stomach. Sirius herd a small burp and then felt his shoulder get doused in vomit.
James stared at Sirius awaiting his reaction. Sirius gave Severus to James and ran to the bathroom. When Dumbledore made Sirius the guardian of Severus, he gave him his own quarters.
The room was guarded by a portrait of a beautiful, spoiled, vain, woman around Sirius' age named Anethia. Even the password to get in was Anethia. She could talk for hours about how beautiful she thought she was.
Sirius looked in the mirror when he was done. Then he went to check on James and Severus.
Severus did feel ashamed. Not only had he been forced to belched in front of Sirius and James, but he had vomited on Sirius' shoulder. Then he felt a twinge of fear course through him. Surely Sirius would want to punish him. Severus wondered what he'd do to him. Would he be beaten? Severus shuddered at the thought. Sirius returned and grabbed Severus from James. "Hear it goes." Severus thought. He was never beaten. After James left Sirius started to talk to Severus.
In two or three hours, Sirius put Severus down for a nap.
"Okay Severus, naptime." Said Sirius, sweetly.
"Okwai" Was his reply.
When Severus woke up again, he had a stuffed cat beside him.
"I bought that for you when Dumbledore said we'd be together for a year." Sirius said, blushing slightly. "I thought you needed a friend."
Severus did need a friend, not a stuffed cat though. Nevertheless, he decided to name it Norah. She would do for some company for now.
Severus woke up crying from having nightmares about his father abusing him and his mother when he was young. Sirius woke up and ran over to Severus.
"Shh, it's okay." Sirius cooed. Severus only stoped crying when Sirius held Norah in front of him.
Severus didn't know why, but Norah seemed very comforting to him at the moment. Severus reached out for the cat and sighed. "Do you want to tell me about your nightmare?" Asked Sirius, calmly. "No" Severus replied.
The next day was Monday, so they had classes to get to. The first one was Transfiguration. Professor Mcgonagall gave Sirius a play pen for Severus.
"Thank you Professor." Sirius said, quickly.
Severus just rolled his eyes and fell asleep. When he woke up, to his absolute horror and embarrassment, he'd soiled himself. Severus had no idea how to only get Sirius' attention. "I can wait" He thought "I've been in uncomfortable situations that were much worse."
Sirius was wrighting a list of things he would need for Severus. Madam Pomfrey gave him an ageing potion and told him to give one twenty-fourth of it to Severus every three months. Sirius was trying to do the math to see what age Severus would be by the end of the year. But before he could, he smelled something awful.
Sirius looked at Severus, who was hiding himself under the blanket.
Sirius excused himself and changed Severus.
Severus expected to get yelled at or beaten for wetting himself, but he never did.
