As he looked at the clock, Severus was startled awake. It's past 8 a.m. He gets out of bed swiftly, making you whimper.
 
"Sorry, Darling. Looks like I overslept. First class starts in a few minutes," he mumbles as he kisses your forehead and runs around the bedroom.
 
"Oh, dear, let me help you." You sit up and yawn.
 
"Thank you very much, sweetheart."

You then assist him in getting his clothes and preparing his belongings. You went downstairs and began preparing his lunch as quickly as you could, and by the time Severus walked downstairs, everything is finished and placed in a paper bag.
 
"Lunch is here; don't forget about it!" you exclaimed as you walked to scrub the sink. A hand wrapped around your waist and a kiss on the top of your head.

"Thank you, darling, and I'll see you later."
 
You turned to face him, pecked his lips, and said, "See you soon; I love you."
 
"I love you, too."
 
You then heard him apparate and turned around to finish cleaning your sink.
 
You both knew this would happen when you decided to reside at Severus' house in Spinner's End.
 
You've been married to Severus for five years now. Nobody knows Severus has a wife, and no one knows who you are, especially since you are a muggle.

Perhaps Dumbledore.
 
Dumbledore, on the other hand, knows everything.
 
So all of the students and instructors are aware that Severus is single. Severus refuses to wear the ring on his finger. He wears it as a necklace because, as he stated:
 
"It's closer to my heart."
 
After that, you bombarded him with kisses.
 
So no one suspects anything.

Until you turned back and noticed that the exact paper bag you had prepared was still on top of your dining table. You groan and cross your arms, debating whether you should go to Hogwarts and give him his lunch or simply let it go.
 
But because you cherish Severus, you choose the first option.
 
You walked upstairs to change your clothing and fix your hair, and you also grabbed a coat because winter is approaching and you don't want to get cold. You double-checked your purse before grabbing Severus' lunch and closing the door to begin your journey.

Being a muggle in wizard world is difficult, but you've become accustomed to it. 
 
It's almost lunchtime after a long journey. You make it to the entryway before being stopped by a massive man.
 
"Excuse me, miss," he began, smiling, "Are ya looking for someone? I can help you! My name is Hagrid."
 
You've probably heard that name before when Severus is telling you a story. You know he's friendly, so you return his smile.
 
"Yes! I'm looking for-" you took a break. If you reveal him you're looking for Severus, your secret will be exposed.
 
"You are looking for...?" he inquired again, patiently.
 


Oh, screw it. He looks kind and will not inform anyone.
 
"I'm looking for Severus," you said, "and I'm going to give him his lunch. It seems that he forgot about it while rushing here."
 
"Severus? You mean Severus Snape?" Hagrid was shocked.

You smile and nod, "Yes! That's him."
 
Hagrid's mind began to overflow with questions, but before he could ask one, he began to bring you inside.
 
You take a deep breath and glance around. You've been here before since Severus used to sneak you inside at night, but it's even more magnificent when the sun shines. The lovely castle walls with their paintings, as well as the lovely scenery
 
Oh, what a magical place indeed.

"They're in the Great Hall for lunch, but it appears that they're finishing up," Hagrid replied as the double door of the Great Hall opened and a swarm of students emerged. They strolled past you and Hagrid, some of them looking at you in confusion before returning to their work.

You simply return the smile.

"Oh! There he is! Severus!" exclaimed Hagrid.

Shit. There's too many people.

Severus is going toward you, but he's talking to an elderly lady. When he heard Hagrid's voice, he turned to face him, and his eyes widened as he spotted his wife.

His spouse. Is here.

And he had the worst start to the day due to grading and pupils. So he couldn't help himself.

Severus hastily runs in your direction.

"Hi! You forgot your lunch and- oh!" He interrupted you off by hugging you close. He closed his eyes and buried his face in your hair.

The pupils as well as the teachers are taken aback by what they are witnessing. The frigid, closed-off, and often grouchy potion master is lovingly hugging a woman.
 
Minerva is stunned since she has no idea what is going on.
 
"Hello, darling," he muttered, pulling back. "Come on." He takes your hand in his and begins to guide you away from the developing crowd.
 
"Thank you, Hagrid!" you manage to utter before Severus takes you away completely.

As soon as you go inside his office. Severus swiftly draws you into a gentle kiss. You closed your eyes and wrapped your arms around his shoulders, feeling his arms around your waist. You two just stand there holding each other close, but because you're both humans, you break the kiss for air, and he smiles, pushing his forehead against yours.
 
"Thank you for the lunch," he said quietly. "Will you stay?"
 
"Are you sure?" you ask, looking up. "I don't want to bother your classes, Sev."
 
"I'm sure. Fortunately, I don't have any classes right now. Let's share the lunch, yeah?" he suggests, and you smile.

After that, you cuddled on Severus' lap while he evaluated his papers. When he began teaching his class, you simply sat in the back and observed your spouse at work for the first time.

Needless to say, Severus isn't the only one who isn't paying attention in class.

To Severus' chagrin, the students begin to ask questions regarding your relationship with him, but you politely respond and decline some of them. They are all shocked to find that you are married to him. Then you met Minerva, who is a great and amazing person.

Toward the conclusion of the day. You're both back at home, cuddling on the bed. You close your eyes and smile.

Who knew your hubby missing his lunch would result in this?
