Moving on

Chapter 22

It had been a fortnight now since Lucius and Severus had left for forks. They were still looking for a suitable house, one that was secluded so they could be free to do as they pleased wither it be practicing magic or flying across trees.

After fourteen days of searching they were in luck, it was a very beautiful house; newly built it had many side/front and back doors. It was almost like a house for many people, the rooms were massive and many. Lucius loved it from the minute he saw it, Severus had already said he wanted the room next to the dungeons Lucius just smirked. Everyone else probably already knew this was the room Severus would be wanting so it probably wouldn't be any trouble.

"This is the one" said Lucius smugly.

"Aren't you glad I made you get driving lessons?" said Severus smugly, "Because if you hadn't well you would be walking a long way"

"I had one lesson and passed!" said Lucius sneering.

"Only because you cheated and did legilimency on your instructor" said Severus.

"The things I've done for you" sighed Lucius, he had hated Muggles for years, only when Severus and him got together did he begin really appreciating the Muggle world. Only because Severus knew what to show him really, one of the things he had introduced him to was cars. Being a vampire he loved speed, unfortunately Severus had made him pass his test before getting into a car with him. They had hid out in the Muggle world for two years after they were turned. Severus creating potions to stop blood thirst which took him a year - he had been experimenting on himself.

Severus just smirked; he knew he could get Lucius to do anything for him.

"The others will need to learn" Lucius pointed out.

"Yes, they will, the proper way" said Severus with a pointed look "They are going to be here for a while so no funny business"

Lucius smirked "Don't worry I wont tell them"

"You had better not Lucius Malfoy" said Severus.

"Come on then lets get back and pay for it," said Lucius "I'm not waiting any longer".

"Are you forgetting the woman is still in there?" sighed Severus, the woman had been showing them around, Lucius had indeed completely forgotten.

"Let's get her then" sighed Lucius.

"Did you bring the cheque?" asked Severus curiously.

"Of course" said Lucius, "That's her coming now"

Severus nodded he could hear her also coming down the stairs with her big high heels on.

"Have you made a decision?" asked the woman, her perfume was almost overpowering them. Good job they had good gag reflexes otherwise she would suspect something was wrong.

"We're buying it" said Severus curtly.

"Will a cheque do?" asked Lucius as if she wouldn't accept it.

"Of course" she said beaming brightly and rightfully so she was after all getting money out of this. She got a percentage out of every house she sold, she was quite high up so she got more than most.

"Then it's a done deal" said Lucius handing the check over.

"Here is your house gentlemen and may I offer my congratulations?" she said smiling brightly.

"Thank you" said Severus curtly "Let's get home and tell everyone, you did book the flights?"

"No" said Lucius blinking he had assumed they would be getting home the other way.

"Then we shall have to wait until one comes available" sighed Severus.

"Let's go, I'm driving this time" smirked Severus taking the keys before Lucius could even protest.

They got into the rental car they had and drove off, Lucius started demanding why they were taking the long way home.

"Because from now on we aren't doing magic like that, if they wanted to trace us then it will only be too easy if our magical signatures went from Forks to England" said Severus.

Lucius deflated at this he hated the Muggle way it was horrific the plane was a nightmare. Especially the fact they gave them some tea and it just got spilled down them when turbulence took control. Needless to say Lucius wasn't looking forward to a repeat performance.

They were on a plane almost immediately much to Lucius' dismay; Severus found Lucius' fear of planes rather amusing. He knew Lucius' fear was irrational, if the plane was to bloody crash they could apparate out for Merlin's sakes.

"Lucius stop it before I knock you out" snapped Severus getting fed up with Lucius' constant whining.

"That's sounding like a good thing" grumbled Lucius but even he couldn't get knocked out, he was not human after all.

"Have you heard anything from Lucius and Severus?" asked Luna curiously, Neville at her side as always. Both vampires' and happier than they had ever been.

"Not for the past week" said Harry; he wasn't worried about them they could look after themselves.

"Are they ok?" asked Neville softly.

"They have been through two wars I'm sure they know how to look after themselves" smirked Harry.

"True" said Neville, he wasn't sarcastic like the others but he wasn't offended when they were sarcastic - maybe if he had been human then yes but he wasn't.

"Are you looking forward to going to America?" asked Hermione curiously.

"Honestly?" asked Harry "I can't wait to have a normal life"

"I'm dreading it! I don't know the first thing about the Muggle world" said Ron looking worried.

Harry snorted "With Hermione mate, you will know everything there is within weeks"

Ron smirked "Too true"

"Oi!" said Hermione giving him a light smack.

Just then they apparated in, looking quite smug with themselves.

"How did it go?" asked Harry.

"Very well, we have the perfect house" smirked Lucius.

"Brilliant" smirked Hermione.

"When do we move?" asked Neville.

"Whenever you are ready" said Severus.

"Well, I've got to go to Gringotts and get my money out" said Harry.

"I've got everything to collect from Longbottom manor and money then that's me" said Neville.

"Everything I've got is already in my trunk" sighed Ron.

"Well you can help me," sighed Hermione "I've got a few things from home I want to take with me" she hadn't been back since the Death Eaters had killed her parents she had hidden her things under a loose floor board not wanting to deal with it there and then.

"Me too" sighed Luna.

"Right then, we will meet you all back here tonight at seven o'clock I have flights booked for nine o'clock" said Severus not wasting any time.

"Then we better get moving" said Hermione standing up ready to get into action.

"I'm going to tell Fred and George then get to Gringotts" said Harry.

The rest all agreed leaving and going in their own direction ready to meet up later on tonight. Tonight they would leave England for a better life in Washington.

Severus and Lucius went to Malfoy Manor to say goodbye and 'love you' to Draco and Narcissa. Promises were made to visit and to make portkey's before they left - Severus and Lucius were heading to the grave yards. Lucius to see his mother, father, grandfather and grandmother. Severus to see his mother and Lily Evans, those were the only two people he cared about in his life that were dead.

Severus spent ages talking to Lily telling her everything he knew about Harry, telling him how he was wrong Harry was more like her than he had ever realised. Lucius stood behind him letting him talk to his best friend.

"It's getting dark now Lily I have things to pack, don't worry I'll take care of your son for you. I'll be back one day Lils' don't worry" sighed Severus conjuring a bunch of flowers, Lilies no surprise there.

By eight o'clock Snape Manor was bare and huddled with trunks and people.

They were ready to leave.

Forks would never be the same again.

The Cullen's had better watch out.
