The Alchemy Professor | Severus Snape

Chapter 1

Reader's P.O.V:

One week before the beginning of the school year. The first time that I am so exited.

Guess why ?

Harry Potter will come at Hogwarts !

Oh Merlin. I have to see him since Lily's and James' death. How much must he have grown ? Does he look like his father or mother ? 

So many questions that will only be answered with some patience. 

I may be excited in the inside however I am still serius on the outside.

Dumbledore sent me an owl this morning telling me to go to his office at 7 o'clock (pm). So, here I am walking towards his office with curiosity and confusion as companions.

Preoccupied with my thoughts I didn't notice the potions master in front of me; his back facing me.

I only did see him when we collided and I fell backwards. Severus turns and locks eye contact with me. Why is he so angry ?

" Watch where you are going. " His voice contains so much hatred.

I roll my eyes. " Good morning to you too. If I were you, I would do the same. " I retort faking a smile.

After these words, his fury escalated. He grabbed my throat and pinned me on the wall. His body so close to mine. I couldn't help it and fell wet for this man. Even if I hate him with all of my being.

" What. Didn't. You. Understand. I thought I was very clear the last time. DON'T EVER SPEAK TO ME. " His hold of my throat tightens choking me. My wetness increases.

I open my mouth to tell him like the last time that this can't happen but Albus appears from nowhere.

" Severus, Y/N what are you doing here ? I thought that I called you in my office. Anyway, how many times do I need to say this ? Leave the past aside; become friends and help each other. " 

Severus pulls away making me whine from the loss of contact. 

" Me... and her becoming friends. Good joke. "

" I don't want to be friends with such a bitch. Just look at him. He continues after so many years to love a dead and married woman. " I retort.

Severus eyes shine with fury. He points his wand at my neck. " You insolent know-it-all Ravenclaw ! Take it back. "

" I have nothing to take back. When did I give you something to take back ? " I ask back feeling amused by his reaction.

We return in our previous position with two differences. 1. One of his hands is choking me while the other has his wand on my cheek. 2. Albus is standing next to us clearly disappointed.

" That wasn's vey polite Professor L/N. I can say the same about Professor's Snape reaction. " Albus remarks.

I look at Severus who is very angry with me. " Let me go. " I whisper. 

" No until you apologize. " He whispers back.

" It is not my fault that you can't move on and that you are a git. Even the students call you like that. " I tell him. 

" I have moved on. " He assures me.

" Really ? I can't see that. Guess what ? You are lying. " 

" ENOUGH ! " Dumbledore shouts catching both of us off guard.

" You two need to learn to collaborate. Y/N you have lots of free time because only 6th and 7th years are having your lesson. So, when you don't have classes but Severus has; you will be there helping the students or correcting papers. AM I CLEAR ? IF YOU DO OR SAY SOMETHING INAPPROPRIATE IN FRONT OF THE CHILDREN, ESPECIALLY HARRY; YOU WON'T LIKE IT AT ALL. " He says.

My eyes widen due to shock. I clear my throat ready to complain but freeze when I realize how angry Dumbledore is with us. 

Having left no choice, Severus and I nod reluctantly.

" Good. " Albus returns to his normal, sweet self.

" Do you want a tea ? "
