Please review, reviews make me happy :3
Enjoy my lovely readers!
James leaned against the wall, his eyes scanning the large crowd of students, searching desperately for his Severus. As more and more faces passed by the more worried he got. This morning he got a really bad feeling in his gut that something horrible happened, and he always trusted his gut.
The hallway was soon empty, leaving only James. He waited a little longer before turning and padding away, a frown upon his face. "Where is he?" He mumbled.
He slowly walked into class, sitting down next to Sirius. The long haired Gryffindor looked over at James and immediately knew something was wrong.
"I'm guessing Sev is bigger than you huh?" James didn't even respond to the comment, resting his head on his arms, eyes dark. Sirius frowned, he had expected another textbook thrown at his face.
"What is it James?" Sirius asked, worry ebbing in his voice. It was rare to see James upset. "Did something happen between you and Sev?" James heaved a heavy sigh, not bothering to look at Sirius.
"He isn't at school, I've searched and he isn't here." James answered. Sirius was surprised, Severus was always at school.
What could of happened? Sirius thought
"I'm sure he's just running late ok? Maybe he's resting after that sex you guys had last night. Tell me does he top?" James lightened up obviously, because in response he slammed a textbook against the back of Sirius's head.
It had been another day and Severus had not returned to classes. James stood alone in the hall, again. He waited and waited, and still no sign of Severus. James gritted his teeth, his heart clenching at the thoughts that ebbed into his mind.
Was he hurt? Did he get kidnapped? Did Dumbledore kick him out of Hogwarts? Did he die?
As the thoughts got worse and worse James heart felt tighter, the worry consuming him. "Damnit all where is he?"
As if answering his question, further down the hall a figure walked towards him. He was limping and swaying slightly. His eyes were black rimmed as if he hadn't slept in days. James looked up, eyes widening when he saw him. "Sev!"
Severus looked at James running towards him, fear emanating in his eyes. "J-James!" His voice cracked with pain.
"Where the hell have you been? I've been worried si-" He stopped, eyes scanning Severus's features. He was covered in bandages, mostly around his face and hands. James could see his shoulders shaking and the dullness in his eyes. "W-what happened to you?" James demanded.
Severus shook his head, smiling weekly. "I fell down the stairs and hit my head. I'm sorry but I had to stay in bed, nurses orders. But I'm fine now so don't worry." It was painful to watch as Severus lied. He couldn't bring himself to tell the truth. The past two days Lucius continued to torture him. It was a good thing that he was a good liar because James merely nodded his head slowly.
"A-alright. I was so worried about you." James wrapped his arms around the slim Slytherin, pulling him close. "I'm just glad your ok now." Severus closed his eyes, relaxing in James's arms. He was dissapointed slightly that James hadn't asked any more questions.
Was he worried at all? Was he curious? Did he really believe me?
He wished he could tell him everything, tell him the pain and suffering he went through, to cry on his shoulder, anything. But in order to protect him, he couldn't.
James pulled away, kissing the top of Severus's head softly. "Come on, lets get to class." He took the small Slytherins hand into his own and began to pad away.
Severus smiled, tightening his fingers around James's.
How dare you?
He stopped, dark eyes widening. James glanced over at him, worry spreading across his face. "Sev, everything alright?" He asked softly.
You think you can carry on like nothing happened? How foolish. I won't let this go unpunished.
An unknown force smashed into Severus, sending him crashing to the floor.
"Sev!" James knelt down, his eyes darting back and forth. "Sev what is it? What's wrong!" He screamed. Severus didn't hear him, his breathing was coming in sharp, painful gasps.
I will make you pay for everything you've done.
James shook his shoulders. "Sev! Sev can you hear me?" Sev grabbed James's sleeve, his hands trembling.
"C…can't….b…breathe." He gasped. James's eyes widened as he watched Severus struggle to breathe beneath him
"A-alright come on!" James picked him up in his arms, surprised by how light he was. "I'm gonna get you some help, just hang on!" Severus nodded slowly, closing his eyes tightly as the pain got worse. James ran down the hall at full speed. "Just hang on!"
A young girl twirled around, her long black hair following her swiftly. She laughed like a maniac, yellow teeth shining in the dim green light of the Slytherin common room. "Oh what a great feeling!" She shouted, twirling faster and faster.
"Mind stopping that?" Growled a voice. The girl stopped and glared at the figure sitting in the chair further away from her. He twirled his wand in his hand, a frown upon his face.
"Come on do it again! I want to hear little Sev's screams from here!" She said, her crooked smile widening at the mere thought.
"Calm yourself Bellatrix. Be patient." Lucius warned. Bellatrix frowned, plopping herself in a chair across from Lucius.
"But its so fun to torture him! Besides you're the only one who's been torturing him, I need a good torture too." She complained. Lucius glared at her, gray eyes darkening dangerously.
"Understand this Bellatrix, Severus is mine and mine alone to torture." His voice was sharp.
"Then who can I torture?" Bellatrix shouted, a hint of madness shining in her black eyes.
Lucius heaved a heavy sigh. "I don't care, if anyone gets in the way of our plans then you can have them."
Bellatrix leaped to her feet, letting out another psychotic laugh. "Yes yes yes! I can hear them screaming now!" She began to twirl once more, laughing still. Lucius looked away from her, staring at his wand.
"What are you gonna do now, huh Severus?"
Severus was sound asleep in the infirmary, his chest rising slowly as his breathing became stable again. James got him there just in time. He was sitting next to him in a chair, holding his hand tightly.
"What happened?" James turned around and noticed Remus and Sirius standing behind him, their eyes wide. Remus was instantly by Severus'ss side, his eyes scanning up and down the small Slytherins body while Sirius stood next to James.
"James, what happened to him?" His voice was soft and filled with concern. James let out a shaky breath.
"I…I don't know…he just suddenly collapsed and couldn't breathe." James voice was week and filled with pain. Sirius sighed and rested his hand on James's shoulder.
"I'm sure he'll be fine." He said, smiling reassuringly. James nodded slowly, stroking his thumb along Severus's hand.
"Did you find out where he was these past two days?" Asked Remus.
"Ya, apparently he fell down the stairs and hit his head and needed to rest." Said James. Remus frowned, looking back at Severus.
"Well he's obviously lying. Those wounds he has can't be the work of just falling down the stairs. There not self inflicted either, I can tell. But something isn't adding up, they look as if they were inflicted by someone else."
James looked at Remus, his eyes widening. "W-why would he lie to me?" He asked. Remus shook his head.
"I don't know, but whoever is doing this to him must hold some grudge against him. Maybe he cant tell you. He is a Slytherin after all. No offense to him but to the other Slytherins. Either way you cant tell him about this, you need to find this out on your own. For his own safety and maybe even your own." Said Remus.
James sighed heavily, looking back at Severus. "Alright, I'll figure this out." Remus nodded his head and walked up to Sirius.
"It's just a theory I have, maybe he did just fall down the stairs. But still, it worries me that there could be a possibility that he is being hurt by someone. Don't think to much into it." Said Remus. James nodded his head, turning his attenition back to Severus.
"Come on" He whispered to Sirius "lets leave him and Sev alone." Sirius nodded and took Remus's hand.
"See you later James." Without waiting for a reply Sirius led Remus out of the room. The two boys walked away from the infirmary, both of them still filled with worry for their friends.
"What do you think is happening?" Asked Sirius. Remus sighed heavily.
"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling that things are going to get worse from here" He Remus, worry dripping into his voice. Sirius frowned, tightening his fingers on Remus's.
"I hope your wrong."
