The coffee table was broken.

The slender silver candleholders, long tarnished from neglect, lay slightly bent on the floor. The black curtains had fallen beside them, in a tangled mess, ripped and shredded mercilessly by hands that pulled too fast. The bookcase was in severe disarray, its alphabetized shelves half-emptied by the shock of having bodies slammed hard against its rows. The books themselves, which had previously always been treated with care, now littered the floor, trampled and misused.

Severus never envisioned that it would happen this way.

The coffee table was broken, yes, but not because some misguided, do-gooding auror had found Spinner's End and had determinedly broken the door down to seek justice, or because a keen, maniacally devious Death-Eater had caught on to Severus' duplicitous ways, no. It was the naïve, idealist werewolf seeking his martyred mate that had finally cost Snape his furnishings: having been so caught up in the joy of finding Severus that he resolutely decided to fuck him on and against any and every surface in Severus' house.

It was the werewolf who now, draped inelegantly in the remains of the velvet curtains, stepped quietly into the kitchen where Severus sat expectantly (this table had fortunately born their weight) in front of two steaming cups of tea. Remus' eyes were full of promise, his lips playing an endearingly mischevious smile. He gave his lover a look of complete innocence.

"So what happens now?"
