His doe, father's lioness(Severus Snape love story)

Detention

The next day, I sat at the back in potions class, away from everyone else. The door slammed opened which made me flinch and Snape made his way to the front.

'There will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this class, as such I don't expect many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art that is potion making, however, for those select few who process the predisposition, I can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses, I can tell how to bottle fame, brew glory and even put a stopper in death, then again maybe some of you came to Hogwarts in possession of abilities so formidable that you feel confident enough to not pay attention. 'Mr Potter, our new celebrity, tell me what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood'. Hermione's hand shot up. Harry shook his head.

'You don't know, well let's try again, where Mr Potter would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar'.

'I don't know sir'.

'And what is the difference between monkshood and wolfbane'.

'I don't know sir', Harry repeated.

'Pity... Cleary fame isn't everything, is it Mr Potter'?

'Clearly, Hermione knows, seems a pity not to ask her', Harry sneered at him. The class laughed.

'Quiet', Snape drawled. 'Miss O'Neil, can you answer for him'? I nodded. 'Well'?

'Asphodel and wormwood would make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of the living dead, a bezoar is a stone taken from a stomach of a goat and will save you from most poisons and monkshood and wolfbane are the same plant which also goes by the name of aconite'. He nodded slightly.

'Gryffindor's note that 5 points for your classmates cheek'. I frowned.

'I don't think that's fair sir', I began. He looked at me. 'It's only the first day, Harry didn't even know he was a wizard till a few days ago'.

'Detention, Miss O'Neil'.

'For what'?

'Speaking back, now shut your trap'.

After class I had flying class but I decided not to go as I already knew how to fly a broomstick and all so I didn't think there was any point.

'Hey, wait up'. I turned around to see the Harry boy running toward me. '(Y/n) right'?

'That's right'.

'You didn't have to do that back there, I feel bad now that you got detention'.

'Don't worry, it's fine'.

'Well, thanks anyways, I'll see you around'.

I went to an abandoned bathroom in the castle, people know this bathroom as moaning Myrtle's. Anyway, from the time I had on my hands, I brewed some potions and did my school work.

When classes were about finished, I started to head to the great hall but I was stopped by Pansy and her friends.

'Oh look, it's little Bambi'. She pushed me to the ground and kicked me in the stomach. 'Come on girls, let's leave little Bambi for now'.

I slowly picked up my books and redirected my destination back to the dungeons. My stomach burning with pain.

'Miss O'Neil, your early', Professor Snape pointed out the obvious.

I really hate that name.

'Do you prefer if I come at a later time, Professor'?

'Watch your tone with me'. The pain in my stomach was almost too much to handle.
