Second time Around *Severus Snape* Book 1 -completed-

It makes sense now...

Severus’ POV-

 
I was walking through corridors arriving in front of my beautiful princess’ room.  After my knocking, she opened the door, and to my surprise she was wearing a short revealing nightgown while holding a heart-shaped whip. “Why so serious Sev?” she said seductively. I felt myself tense up, because I never saw that much of her skin exposed, she mostly wore long laced black clothes with corsets. To be honest, she resembled a Goddess, and I couldn’t help but notice her having a couple of tattoos, which I wasn’t too fond of. She shouldn’t have ruined her beautiful body with those permanent and unnecessary drawings.  I collected myself and replied “I’m not Darlene, I just wasn’t expecting the…Choice of your clothing.” She only laughed carelessly, ah that enchanting voice of hers, sometimes I wonder if she has any Veela blood in her.”Veela blood you say?” she mentioned amusedly as she closed her chamber door. “Why must you persist on penetrating my thoughts darling?”  I declaimed disapprovingly. “Well you could’ve asked me babe.” Now she approached me so close that only millimeters were tearing us apart. She smiled and put my arms around her waist and then she kissed me sweetly in which I returned the partisanship.”The answer to your question is no, I’m far from being a Veela, I’m only a good makeup artist and have a lot of self-confidence.” She answered while interrupting our blissful kiss. Just as I was about to reply, she dragged me to the bed and unexpectedly jumped on top of me.”Now you’re my slave, you can’t escape.” She said while biting her lower lip.” I’m sorry to disappoint you darling, but I’m not into those types of games.” I mumbled as I removed herself from me and I sat up.”Okay now what is your problem?!” She suddenly snapped. I really wasn’t expecting her sudden outburst and asked her “What do you mean?” “You know what, just forget it.” She stormed to her shelf impending her bottles full of alcohol. I frowned and went to her. “Don’t you dare drink that wretched alcohol!” But she only took a whole bottle and drank almost half of the liquor. In my whole lifetime, I’ve never witnessed a person drink that fast, nevertheless a woman and she threw the rest on the floor, smashing the glass to shreds while screaming angrily. I was utterly speechless and beyond shocked. “What is the matter with you Andrews?! Have you gone insane?!” Darlene only ignored me and lightened up her cigarette. I approached her, yet again, and grabbed her arm and I saw something I never even imagined she was capable of, I saw her on the verge of crying. “Please don’t cry princess.” I whispered while hugging her. I heard her sigh yet she hugged me back. “I’m sorry for my outburst, it’s just I…Ever since my parents died I developed a bipolar disorder and sometimes I simply can’t cope with my feelings which lead to my violent behavior, and I usually solve that with drinking.” She confessed honestly. Surprisingly, her voice wasn’t shaking at all. If I didn’t saw her eyes, and her actions a moments ago, I never would have even imagined her being…Explosive. Now her association with drinking made sense to me, suddenly I remembered my father having similar outbursts and I sighed. “Have you ever asked for professional help?” she sat on her chair as she inhaled her poison “Are you calling me insane Severus?” “Of course not darling, I apologize for my inconvenient choice of words. It’s just that…After your traumatic events, people, especially young children who endure this type a trauma may develop a certain disorder, like yourself an-”  “There’s no need for big words Severus, I already know that. And no Healer can help me, as you can see, I’m doing okay.” “You call your unpredictable mood swings okay? Darling, you-” “I said I’m fine which means I’m fine! Besides, it only happens to me when I’m actually feeling emotionally…Uh...Unsatisfied.” “So, you are feeling…Emotionally unsatisfied with me?” I had a feeling she still had a trouble accepting the fact that she can be attracted to the opposite sex, more accurately is attracted to me. “Okay, I’m just gonna say it. I have a feeling that you are too tense around me and that you don’t wanna have sex with me because, apparently you either don’t find me good looking enough, or you’re still a virgin and..Uh, I have no other explanations.” She finished straight-forwardly. I widened in shock. So that’s what has been bothering her. “Darlene.” I reached to her and cupped her chin while gently kissing her…

Dianna’s POV-

 
“Dianna, are you listening?” Hermione asked me suddenly. “Oh sorry, I spaced out a bit.” I mumbled sheepishly. I heard her sigh and she continued. “So what is your current plan then?” “What are talking about?” “I can’t believe it! You haven’t remembered a word I said previously.”  “Yes I did.” I lied, after her mentioning Fred, I kind of got lost in thoughts. I really don’t know what should I do regarding the situation which is going between us. “…Weasley.” After mentioning that surname, realized that I dazed out again. “ You know what? Goodnight Dianna, we’ll talk tomorrow when you’re actually feeling concentrated enough to pay attention.” “I’m sorry Hermione, It’s just that, a lot of things had happened and my crush on Fred isn’t helping me.” “That’s what I have been telling you the whole time! You should just tell him. It is beyond obvious that you two fancy each other.” “ But I caan’t, why doesn’t he ask me first if it’s ‘obvious that he likes me’, huh?!” I exclaimed trying not to blush, but Hermione only face palmed. “Because, he still thinks you fancy Malfoy!” Now come to think of it, me and Draco did see each other occasionally, but he only hung out with me because he likes Dee and I groaned. “ Why can’t I be just like Darlene? She always gets whoever she wants in a blink of an eye.” I garbled sulkingly. “ Well now, your mother is a very self-confident woman, not to mention intelligent, and tha-“ “And you forgot to mention that she looks perfect, I’m nothing special.” Suddenly Hermione approached my bed and hit my head. “Ouch, what was that for?” I finished whining. “That’s for talking gibberish, you’re a very pretty young girl, humorous and don’t you dare insult my best friend like that.” Hermione ended half-jokingly. She really reminded me of Dee in certain moments, I really am glad to have such a supportive friend like Hermione. I only smiled and squeezed her. “ Love ya too ‘Mione.” “So you promise me to tell him tomorrow?” “ Sure, I’ll tell him that I don’t like Draco.” She only looked at me sternly and added “And?” “ And that…Uh…I painted my nails purple.” “Dianna Thorn!” “Okay, I’ll tell him!” “I counting on that, and if you don’t do it, I’ll tell him myself.” “Hey, that’s not fair!” “Oh come on, I wouldn’t have bother if  you guys weren’t so obvious!”  I sighed, clearly tomorrow’s gonna be a very looong day…
