And spending the afternoon together is exactly what they did. After having the house elves bring them lunch they spent the rest of the day playing muggle board games and talking.
As dinner time grew closer, Severus remembered that Black and Lupin would be arriving soon to check on Harry. Severus told Harry this and the happy look on the child's face quickly changed to that of panic.
"Oh no, oh no no no no no! Sirius is going to freak", Harry exclaimed, starting to pace. "He is going to hate me isn't he?"
~He won't hate you Harry. He will be mad at me for sure but he won't hate you for this~, Severus said trying to sooth Harry.
The emotions and words flowing through the bond did a lot to calm the frantic boy, but Harry was still nervous.
When dinner time came around, there was a knock on the door. Harry, who had been on edge for the past hour, fled the common area and went into his room. Sighing in resignation Severus answered the door.
'Surprise, surprise', Severus thought sarcastically as he saw Dumbledore, Sirius, and Remus. He was irritated at these three for making Harry anxious.
~Don't be mad, please Severus. It will only make things worse and I don't like it when your mad~, Harry said to Severus, sounding a bit fearful.
Upon hearing the borderline frantic thought Severus forcefully calmed himself down, and gestured for the men to come in. ~Thank you~, he heard Harry say, also receiving a mental hug.
~Anything to make you happy, child~, Severus replied, with a small mental smile. Severus never noticed that he had physically smiled a bit throwing two of the three other men in the room a bit off kilter.
Leading his guests to the sitting area, he gestured for them to sit. The furniture had been transfigured for this meeting, they had created three chairs to sit across from a small sofa with a coffee table between.
Once everyone was seated, Severus on the sofa with each of the other three men took a chair, Sirius immediately started demanding to know things. "Where is Harry? Why is he here and not in the hospital wing? Are you keeping him trapped in here? I won't allow him to stay here with you", Sirius all but shouted. Severus had only been listening with half an ear while trying to coax Harry out of hiding but when he heard the last statement, he froze, cutting of abruptly from what he had been saying to Harry.
"What did you just say", Severus asked in a deadly, low tone.
"You heard me", Sirius said haughtily, "I will take my godson away and he won't see you outside of class ever again", Sirius was almost growling those last words.
They heard am anguished cry from behind them and turned to see Harry try and bolt for the door. Severus got there first, however and pulled the child close in an embrace. Harry was sobbing onto his chest showing no signs of stopping. "Shhh, it's okay Harry, child. I won't let him take you away also with the Myrmidon bond you are in my custody", Severus said just loud enough Harry could hear.
"Really", Harry asked looking up to meet Severus' eyes.
"Indeed. Besides it's not like he can force you out of these rooms. The wards are set so that you can't take anyone in or out against their will", Severus said, wiping the tears off Harry's face.
Harry smiled at Severus and gave him another hug. "Then I guess we have a lot to explain", Harry said, turning to look at the speechless Sirius, stunned Remus, and grinning Dumbledore.
A/N: So there is Siri. Remi hasn't really done anything yet but he will. May even throw in some side ships. For those wondering about Ron and Hermione they will be in this fic but I don't know if they will do anything important. I hate Ron so he is going to be a complete arse. And Sevvie calls Harry 'child' as a sort of endearment. I hope you loved this chapter as much as I did! :D
