Broken But Beautiful (SnapeXReader) COMPLETE

64

I looked at myself in the mirror. I took in the oversized burgundy sweater, black ripped jeans and black high heeled boots.

I took a deep breath. I am going to see Severus in a matter of minutes. I don't know how to feel. I miss him so much but I am scared to see him. I just know he hates me.

I walked over to the night stand, my heels clicking on the dark wood floor and slid on the snake ring he gave me. It's my most treasured possession.

I stood outside the dining room. Everyone was already inside the room. I waited an extra three minutes. Voldemort seems to like someone who gives up a slight fight. So I will give it to him. So far, it's working.

I walked into the room with as much confidence as I could muster. Everyone was at the end of the table on the other side of the room. As I walked over I looked at who was here Voldemort was at the head of the table. To his right was Bellatrix. Next to Bellatrix was Mr. Malfoy, then Mrs. Malfoy, then Draco. And on his left was Severus next to Severus was Barty Crouch Jr. My heart skipped a beat. Voldemort smiled at me. "Y/N! How wonderful to see you!"

Severus's head snapped over at me when Voldemort said my name. I didn't look at him. Instead I looked straight at Voldemort. I stopped walking once I got to the chair next to Draco, at the very end of the group. I could feel everyone's stare on me but I ignored them. "Thank you my Lord. It's nice to see you too." I flashed a smile at him.

"Well, sit down so we can start."

I pulled out the chair and sat down. I could see Severus staring at me from the corner of my eye. My instinct was to look over at him but I can't and it hurts.

Bellatrix scoffed.

"Is something wrong?" Voldemort asked her.

"She was late."

"I know." Voldemort responded.

"Then why didn't you punish her! If it was someone else you would!"

I think I figured out why Bellatrix hates me last night. I think she is in love with Voldemort and is jealous that he is giving me more attention than he is to her.

"She-" Started Voldemort.

I interrupted him. "I was busy. Get over it." I said annoyed.

Bellatrix jumped from her seat. I knew what she was doing before she did it. I got up from my chair and whipped out my wand the same time she did.

I saw Severus slightly move in his seat. As if he was about to get up but decided against it.

"You little bitch." She snarled. I didn't break eye contact with her.

"BELLA!" Yelled Voldemort. "STOP IT NOW!"

She hesitantly lowered her wand. I did the same.

"Now both of you sit down." He commanded. We both obeyed. "Good. Now we can finally start the meeting."

My eyes slid over to Severus. He was staring right back at me. Anyone else would see a mask of calm on his face. But I am not anyone else. I know Severus. And he looks terrified. He probably thought I was going to get killed. I didn't think that. Voldemort most likely wouldn't let Bellatrix lay a hand on me. But Severus didn't know that.

I felt an ache all over my body. I just want to be in Severus's arms. I want him to kiss me and hold me. But he can't. Probably not ever again. I pushed that thought away because it hurt too much.

"Severus, how is it going with Dumbledore?" Asked Voldemort. Severus and I broke eye contact.

"He doesn't reveal much in his letters because he is afraid it will be intercepted. The school year is starting in a few weeks so I should be able to find out more then."
