Severus and Lucius

F O U R

Severus opened his eyes not recognizing where he was at first. After a few minutes of confusion, he remembered the events of the past day. He stayed in that exact position, taking in everything that had happened. 

"Good Morning," Lucius said, with a smile on his face. Lucius was standing across the room, walking out of the bathroom. His hair was a little wet and he was standing there in fresh clothes for the day. Severus just smiled in return.

"We are going to start moving into the house in about 2 hours. I recommend that you get ready now." Lucius said, nearing the bed. He sat down right next to Severus and kissed his forehead. 

"What time is it?" Severus asked, groggily. He sat up, the light burning his eyes. 

"10:30," Lucius said, laughing a bit.

A very surprised look spread across Severus's face. "I'm so sorry. I haven't slept this late in years." 

"It's alright, darling," Lucius said, wrapping his arm around Severus.

Severus leaned into the touch. He had a warm feeling in his chest, one he hadn't felt in so long. He enjoyed being with Lucius, and he enjoyed waking up with him, he enjoyed everything about him.

"I'll go make you something to eat. Now you can go take a shower if you would like, and I already have everything from your apartment. Your clothes are in that bin over there." Lucius said, pointing to a large black bin next to the bathroom door. 

"Thanks." 

Severus watched as Lucius walked out of the room. He went over to the large bin and pulled out something simple to wear. A white undershirt with a black sweater, black pants, and black shoes. 

When he walked into the bathroom he noticed how much of a mess his hair was. He brushed out and got in the shower. After his shower, he got dressed, brushed his teeth, and fixed his hair again. By the time he got downstairs, it was 11:30. 

"Hello," Lucius said, from behind the kitchen island. 

"Hi," Severus said, as he walked over and leaned across the counter to kiss Lucius. 

Lucius had made him lunch. Lucius handed him a fork. Severus began to start eating the salad in front of him.

"All the stuff has arrived at the house so we can leave whenever you would like. The only thing we will have to do when we get there is unpack our things, which shouldn't take long." Lucius said, smiling. 

"Alright, that's great," Severus said. 

When Severus finished eating his salad Lucius went to grab the plate and put it in the sink.

"You ready to go?" Lucius asked, sweetly.

"Ya," Severus said. 

Severus was definitely nervous. He didn't know how he would like living with Lucius. So far it had been great, but he wasn't sure if he was completely ready yet. He decided that it would be best to just try, he's got nothing to lose at this point.

Severus and Lucius grabbed onto the portkey and before they knew it they were standing on the nice pavement. 

The house looked even better than Severus had imagined it would. The house was big, but not too big. It was painted grey and had had a nice white black door. It was perfect. 

"So, how do you like it?" Lucius asked, grinning.

"It's amazing," Severus said, walking up the dark brick pathway.

When he stepped inside he saw a big staircase. The walls were all painted grey, and there was a nice wooden floor. The high ceilings had nice windows at the top. They both started walking around. 

"It's quite beautiful isn't it?" Lucius asked. 

Severus just nodded to shocked to speak. 

They explored the kitchen, dining room, living room, bathroom, guest room, and an extra room on the first floor. Then they looked at the huge basement. Finally, they walked up the lovely staircase. When they got to the top there was a long hallway with 5 doors. There were 2 big guest bedrooms, an office that was also quite big, a nice guest bathroom, and their room.

When Severus walked into their room he couldn't believe his eyes. The room was huge, there was a king-sized bed with a nightstand on each side. there was also a large dresser. He had never lived somewhere this big. 

"Any thoughts?" Lucius said. 

"It's perfect," Severus said, kissing Lucius.

They spent the whole rest of the day unpacking and getting everything set up. By the end of the day, everything was exactly the way they wanted it to be. 

"I asked Narcissa if she wanted to move into the old Manor," Lucius said, snuggling closer to Severus. 

"What did she say?" Severus asked. 

"She said she didn't really want to live there. She said she would deal with selling it." Lucius said, getting a bit sadder.

Severus rolled over in bed to face Lucius. "You don't have to sell it if you don't want to." 

"I know, but it's probably time to sell it. It's time to move on." Lucius said, with a sweet smile. "Besides, I have an amazing new guy to build my future with." 

Hey guys. It's the weekend which means you will receive more parts in the next few days. I'm actually really proud of this chapter. I didn't edit it or reread it, but I'm really proud of it. It should be a short story though.
