The Grimm's Dungeon Bat

Chapter Six

! Warning Molly Weasley is involved, and Peter Pettegrew comes in as a creep! ~JessRose

Sirius was very worried about Severus; the night before had made him feel like a monster. The fear in his eyes, the tears, the way he smelled like pure fear, it hurt more than any curse ever could. Severus was in his arms, his head above his heart, it was comforting to Sirius, a comfort he didn't think he deserved. He hated to do this, but he had to wake him up.

Sirius kissed Severus's head gently, whispering soft words to him. "Baby, we need to get up." Severus groaned and mumbled "fuck off" to him. "Let me see those beautiful eyes please Bat." Sirius smiled and kissed his head making him open his eyes and then shut them. "There you saw them, now let me sleep." He was unpleasant in the morning. Sirius chuckled and pulled him up, so he could kiss him properly. 

"Baby, if you get up, I will buy you anything you want." Severus opened his eyes and smiled and kissed him. "Promise?" He looked like a child getting to get whatever he wanted at Honeydukes. "Yes, I promise. You deserve everything and anything you want." Sirius was elated to have his arms full of Severus and the smaller boy's kisses all over his face. "Take a shower with me?" Severus asked, his pale face becoming pink and Sirius got out of bed, picking him up. "When I say no to that, take me to a mind healer." The younger boy giggled and promised with a goofy grin on his face. 

Once they were finally dressed, they double checked the list that Severus made. Sirius noticed that Severus had lists for everything. "We need to go to Knockturn for a few things. Rare potion ingredients, Lucius will come with me if you don't feel comfortable." Severus said it like he was talking about the weather. "I don't mind going to Knockturn, I have to check on a few things while we're there." Sirius had to check on two stores his dad owned and on getting the perfect courting gift for Severus. "What do you have to check on?" Sirius kissed away the frown on his betrothed's face. "Father has a few businesses he owns there and will be passed to me after I graduate. Also, there is something there that I have in mind for a very special person." He kissed Severus's hand his lips touching where the consort ring would be. 

When they got to Diagon they found James, Remus, Regulas, and Lucius in front of Ollivander's, like they promised. "Siri!" Regulas ran to him, clinging to his older brother. Sirius kissed the top of his brother's head. "I missed you to petite etoile." The last part was whispered to him. Regulas had a giant smile on his face before going back to James and pressing his face into the man's chest. "Did you guys have anything specific you're looking for?" Sirius asked while Severus was looking at his list and mumbling to himself. "Not really. Just school stuff." James said with his arm slung around Regulas's shoulder. "I need to look in on father's businesses and get a few things for a guest of ours." Lucius sounded like a pompous asshole. "Well, Bat, do you have the game plan?" Severus looked up and pointed to a few places before grabbing Sirius's hand and dragging him to the first store. 

Sirius groaned as Severus bought more books. "Bat, do you really need more books?" He asked and Severus shook his head. "I thought you would get me anything I want?" Severus's sweet look made him fold, the puppy eyes would be the death of him. "Bat, we need to get things for school." Severus sighed and they left after Sirius paid. They got everything on their list and went to Knockturn. James, Regulas, and Lucius looked at ease, Remus looked paranoid. "Remi, you don't have to come with us." Sirius said but the werewolf shook his head and went forward. 

While Severus was with the others in a dark apothecary Sirius went to a jeweler. "Hello Heir Black. Is there something I can do for you?" The girl behind the counter asked, and Sirius looked at the case where there was a lovely black necklace that reminded him of Severus's eyes. "I need a courting gift." The girl looked excited and blushed at him, but Sirius didn't know why. "Heir Black, this is bit fast, no?" Sirius then understood, the girl thought that he was looking for a gift for her. "Fast? I have been betrothed since birth. I have neglected him of late, but I won't anymore." The girl went red, and then left the front, she smelled of tears not that it mattered to him. On a shelf Sirius saw what he had come for.
