severus' tale ( snapetober 2021 )

xxxi. we are the kids from yesterday

"HALLOWEEN PARTY."

***

you were asleep in the bed you shared, stirring awake as you looked at the scene that unfolded before you.

you looked at the cot, your daughter sleeping deeply and then to your left you saw your husband.

you sat up and pecked kisses all over his jaw and his cheek, which slowly and surely woke him up.

"good morning my love." you said.

"morning y/n."

you both shared a morning kiss, you shifted slightly so that now you were on top of him, resting your head on his chest perking up here and there.

"did you sleep well my love?" you asked, severus nodded which brought a smile to your face.

you placed kisses all over his face and placed a small kiss to his nose.

"what on earth are you doing my dear?" he asked.

"just showing you how much i love every part of you sweetheart." you answered.

severus didn't argue, he let you do so. in fact it warmed his heart that you loved him this much.

your chin laid on his chest as you played around with his hair, letting it fall into your grasp. in the moments where you got some peace and quiet, you were both very close in each other's touch, in a comfortable and poignant silence as you both held each other.

"you're so beautiful y/n, my little kitten." he said.

"kitten huh? you haven't called me that one in a while." you perked up.

"it simply rolls off the tongue so well, especially with you." he admitted.

you giggled as you brought your hands to his cheeks.

"so you want to play this game hm? i'll admit to you, you're so amazing. juggling so much in just one day, i couldn't be more proud of you." severus said.

you giggled and your smile grew bigger.

"you're such a good girl...hm?" he teased.

you sunk into severus' hair, hiding away your thoughts.

severus' fingers laid on your chin bringing them up so you both looked into each other's eyes.

"what are you thinking of my dear?" he asked.

"you..."

"you're always thinking of me."

"i always will."

you both shared a kiss, more deeper than the last one. you both heard sapphire making noises in her sleep, you both turned to her as your intimate moment was undoubtedly cut short.

"time to get back to our duties." you said, pouting slightly as you wished for this moment to last.

you got off of severus' body, getting out some clothes from your wardrobe. you had to go to hogwarts today, you were a visiting teacher at hogwarts. with the new roles of mum and dad obviously being handed to you by life, you split severus' very stressful and chaotic work schedule between the two of you.

today you had to go into hogwarts, you wanted it to be the weekend everyday but unfortunately you couldn't control time and you had a job to do.

you put on your work clothes, grabbing a hold of severus' cloak and wrapping it over your body.
