icarusIn honor of HBP's new Horrible Snape and Junediamanti's essay, have a little Severus/Peter slice-of-life.
In Servitude
By Icarus
Severus gave a slow sinuous smile as he pulled open the wardrobe door. It creaked ominously.
"Why, good morning, Peter," he said in an almost amiable tone, as if this location were perfectly ordinary. Peter's heart raced. He was fast running out of places to hide. "Did you have a pleasant night's rest? I certainly hope so." Snape turned his back on Peter, clearly expecting him to follow. "We have a very full itinerary today."
"S-something for the Dark Lord?" Peter stepped out of the wardrobe, hoping against hope. Severus Snape paused, and Peter froze, one foot still in the wardrobe.
"I am your Dark Lord, Peter Pettigrew," Snape snarled. "Everything you do for me, you do for Him."
"Y-yes, oh, of course." Peter bobbed his head, wondering if the Dark Lord knew about Snape's private little self-styled titles. Though he was the Dark Lord's favourite, now that Lucius was gone. Peter whimpered a little, then shrank as the sound drew Severus closer. Severus' heavy boots thudded, loud and slow, on the dusty wooden floor. Three steps.
Severus cupped the back of Peter's head and stroked his hair. "There, there, Peter. I won't have you do anything you aren't already well used to. Tell me," that sallow face drew closer and he asked oh-so-softly, "did James have you clean his boots for him?"
"N-no...."
"A slimy little boot-licker like you? I find that... surprising," Severus sneered. "You know not to lie to me, Peter. I can tell when you are lying." Severus drew his head closer, nails digging in. "Tell me how much you liked licking Potter's boots."
Peter shook. "Uh... it was...."
"Say it."
"I, um, I... liked it?"
Snape released him and drew back with a nasty smile. "Very good, Peter. And fortunately for you, you now have the opportunity to do more of the same." Snape looked smug as he led a hesitant Peter downstairs. "And while you work, you can tell me more of these delightful services you performed for Potter and Black."
The next one. Come torment Peter a little more.
