Chapter Sixty-eight;

Sirius opened his eyes, moving his hand to shade over them as the light peered into the room. He rubbed at his eyes and gasped when he felt himself being engulfed in a warm cavern. He pushed to sit up and moved the blanket, holding the back of Severus' head as it bobbed up and down. His lips curled into a smirk. He hummed in appreciation, scooting up and leaning against the headboard and closing his eyes, trying to force himself not to thrust his hips up. His breathing quickened, moving his hand to make Severus' move faster, closing his eyes tighter. "Sev'rus" he panted, cracking an eye open and his smirk widening.

Severus pulled away quickly as the door opened to reveal a glaring Tobias. "… How disgusting."

Sirius glared back, pulling the blanket to cover himself up. "Look in a mirror, did you?"

Tobias growled. "Severus, honestly, learn how to be the man of the relationship." He rolled his eyes, slamming the door. "Oh, and breakfast is ready." He called through the door as he walked away.

"I really hate that guy…"

"That guy is my Father."

"Some Father."

Severus sighed. "Can we just go eat and then we can leave?"

"Fine…" Sirius muttered, standing up and walking into the bathroom for a shower.

After his shower, he threw on the extra pair of clothes he had brought and headed downstairs, stopping at the kitchen door, his fists clenching and jaw locking at the sight: Severus was pushed up against the wall, a small amount of blood dripping from the side of his lips, Tobias with Severus' collar gripped in his hand to hold him in place and choke him a bit, his other fist held up in the air in a ball about to take what looked like another punch.

"What the hell is going on?" Sirius bellowed.

Tobias dropped Severus, kneeing him swiftly in the stomach which made Severus hunch over to the ground. "This is family business, none of your concern."

"None of my…" Sirius growled.

He crossed the room over to Tobias, throwing his fist back and aiming at Tobias' jaw. Tobias quickly moved to the side, tackling at Sirius' side and knocking him down to the ground. Sirius yelped, tossing Tobias under him and repeatedly punching his fist down at Tobias' face. Tobias winced, throwing punches at Sirius' chest. The two rolled on the ground, swinging at one another, every throw hitting the other. Sirius pulled away, leaning against the counter and breathing hard, blood dropping down his chin, his eye bruised – Tobias looked about the same, except his nose was bleeding as well. They both glared at each other, preparing for round two when Severus stood up and clenched his fists.

"Sirius! How dare you attack my Father!"

Sirius widened his eyes. "What? He was hitting you!"

"I don't care!"

"You're a fucking idiot." Sirius muttered, standing up and walking out of the kitchen, holding his hand out and accio'ing his wand from the other room to him. "I'm leaving. Have fun getting beat the shit out of." Sirius shouted, walking out the front door and slamming it behind him.

Sirius sped-walk down the street and into their house, slamming the door a few times before walking over to the fireplace and setting up the floo to take him to their chambers in Hogwarts. After walking through, he waved his wand and banished the blood on his face as well as fixing the near-black eye. After he walked out of his chambers and down towards the Great Hall, making it there when everyone was halfway done it seemed with breakfast. He took a seat and pulled Aidan from Pomona's lap to his own, placing a kiss to the top of his head. "Hello."

"Where is papa?"

"Still at his Father's, but I'm here." Sirius smiled. Aidan rolled his eyes and began to eat in silence – which made Sirius sigh.

After breakfast, he carried Aidan back to their chambers, trying to think of ways to repair their relationship – which as of right now he was blaming it being broken completely on Severus out of annoyance. He stepped into their chambers and put Aidan down, who ran over to sit in front of the fire, pulling out a coloring book from his box next to the fireplace and lying on the ground, drawing and ignoring Sirius. Sirius rolled his eyes at the act and took a seat on the couch, crossing his arms and watching his son draw. His eyes began to droop slowly, and before he knew it, he was out like a light.

When he awoke, he saw that Aidan was gone. His eyebrow quirked and he glanced around the room, frowning when he didn't catch sight of Aidan. He pushed out of his seat and walked into Aidan's room, smiling when he saw that Severus was asleep in the bed on top of the covers, and Aidan was under the covers, napping as well. He turned to leave the room when Aidan opened his eyes and glared. "He's mine."

Sirius turned back to look at his son. "What?"

"I said… papa is /mine/. Not yours."

"Uh…"

"So stay away from him."

Sirius sighed. "He's my husband."

"Not for long. Hmph."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It means… when I'm old enough. I'm marrying him!"

Sirius chuckled, shaking his head. "No, you're not."

"Yes I am."

"You're our son."

"I don't care. I love papa."

Sirius rolled his eyes. "Go back to your nap, Aidan."

Aidan laid his head on Severus' arm, resting his small arm to hug Severus. "Mine." He said, sticking his tongue out at Sirius before closing his eyes and going back to sleep.

Sirius stretched his arms out, trying to think of something to do for the day. It was nearing lunch, though Sirius wondered if they could go to Hogsmeade for lunch – students weren't due until near dinner, and Aidan had only been to Hogsmeade once. He sat on the couch and decided to wait until they awoke – which was only a mere few minutes when Severus emerged from the room, yawning. Sirius turned to look at him and gave him a faint smile, and in response he received a scowl. "I was thinking we could go to Hogsmeade for lunch…"

"Why?"

"Well, Aidan has only been once, plus I wanted to get him some ice cream."

Severus rolled his eyes. "Buying him things won't get him to like you."

"It's worth a try… also, he said… the... I'm not sure if it's funny or odd."

"What did he say, Sirius?"

"When he's old enough, he's going to marry you and steal you away from me."

Severus stared at Sirius before breaking into a beaming smile and laughing. "What?"

"Yeah… supposedly he loves his papa more than I love him, so he is going to marry you."

Severus rolled his eyes. "Are you feeling threatened?"

"Should I?" Sirius rolled his eyes.

"Of course not, dolt."

Sirius smiled, standing up and crossing the room to wrap his arms around his waist. "I'm sorry I left… I shouldn't have…. Did he…"

"No. He yelled, and then told me to get out."

"Hm." Sirius hummed, kissing Severus' lips gently and then pulling away. "I should go kill him… does he do that… er…"

Severus sighed. "I don't feel like talking about this, Sirius…"

"Of course… whenever you're ready then…" Sirius said as Severus rested his head on his shoulder. "So, Hogsmeade for lunch, dear?"

Severus nodded his head. "Sure, if you wish."
