Spring.
Spring meant one thing to Severus Snape. Cleaning, a time when he would roll of up sleeves and get to cleaning out his lab, his rooms and his lovers’ rooms. But no one thought it necessary to tell Severus that spring was also the time when werewolves were ready to mate. So it never crossed his mind as Severus bent over to sweep out from under the table, that he would be thrown over said table and fucked within an inch of his life. It never dawned that after scolding the wolf for ruining his mood for cleaning, that he would be throw over the others shoulder and taken to the bedroom where his other lover would wait a grin on the man’s face and a rope in his hand.
“Black, I should have known.” Severus spoke before being flopped on the bed.
Summer.
It was too hot in the summer to be out and about. Severus preferred his lab; the cold, damp room under his small cottage. But that was before Remus and Sirius joined the man at his summer home. His summers after that were full of things he had never thought possible. Midnight dips in cool water, making love on the mossy banks, howling just like one of his lovers and even sex on the full moon. Even the day time was filled with desire; eating ice cream off of each other, putting ice in secret places, and lounging in bed until noon.
Autumn.
Now autumn was Severus time. He loved to watch the changing of the leaves and crispness of the air. He loved to watch Sirius in dog form playing with Remus as he, himself, had a cup of tea on the front yard. No wars, no teaching, no meetings just Remus, Sirius, and Severus doing whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted.
“Severus.” Remus called, his cheeks flushed with excitement. “Come join us.”
Severus smiled and sat his tea down and walked down the steps. “Alright but no-” His voice was cut off by Padfoot coming up knocking him down.
“You were saying?” Remus asked, chuckling.
Winter.
“Keep your eyes closed, no peeking.”
“I bloody well can’t see a thing with his blindfold on, Black. How do you except me to peek?” Severus wanted to roll his eyes but the blindfold had been tied to tight on his eyes. He was being walked up the stairs to the second floor of their home. His other lover, Remus, was on the other side of him. “If this is what I think it is, I will kill you.”
“Not after what we have to show you.” Remus whispered in his ear, causing shiver up Severus spine. Then they stopped. He had lost count of how far they had come. The blindfold was taken off and Severus opened his eyes. On their bed was a cake saying ‘Happy 50th Birthday Severus’. But what took his breath away was the open ring box with three platinum bands. Sirius took them and showed them to Severus.
“It has been twelve years since the end of the war and ten since we moved into together and yet we are still just lovers. Remus and I thought that we should take the next step.” Sirius placed a ring on Severus finger then motioned for Severus to do the same to Remus, Remus then did the same to Severus.
“This is a promise.” Remus said. “That we will never leave you. Happy Birthday, Severus and Happy Beginnings.”
