Bella Lenox is living on borrowed time thanks to a deadly curse. Her godfather Severus Snape encourages her to make the most of the time she as left and enrolled her to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry hoping she can make some friends and...
God that was the most embarrassing moment of my life, I had just been caught red handed snooping in his room. I had originally walked over there to tell him about the dinner but when I realized he wasn't there I got curious, I had walked around his room inspecting his stuff not having much time to do so the other times I had been there. His room was clean and neatly organized, the smell of his cologne lingering in the air. He had walked in looking bit stressed and clearly didn't see me, probably because he wasn't expecting someone to be in his dorm. He had worn a full on black suit looking like he had just come from an important meeting, although he clearly avoided the subject when I brought it up.
I made my way over to my own dorm to get ready for the dinner. I did my makeup quite simple and curled my hair before walking over to the closet and looking for something to wear. I didn't wanna be over dressed but at the same time I didn't want to be underdressed. I settled for a long sleeve red dress, that had a thicker material, and added some black heals. My legs were bear but the castle was quite warm so that wouldn't be a problem.

As I put on my heels a knock came on my door, I walked over opening it and being meet with the strong smell of his cologne. He was scanning my outfit licking his lips as his eyes moved downwards, clearly liking it. "Well don't you look stunning" he said not even bothering to hide the fact that he was checking me out.
"Thank you, you look very handsome too" I said. He was wearing black suit pants with a white button up shirt and his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, sliver rings decorating his fingers. He's appearance defiantly doing something to me.
We made our way down to the great hall. The hallway outside being lit up by a hundred candles illuminating the way forward. The great hall looked magical, there was snow falling from the enchanted roof, stopping just above our heads. They hade moved all the tables to the side of the room replacing it with a big round one in the middle. There was a huge Christmas tree in the corner of the hall and the room smell of cinnamon and firewood. The table was filled to the brim with food and all the remaining teachers and the 2 Hufflepuffs were already seated. We hurried to join them taking our appointed seats and lookin at the food infront of us.
The dinner was delicious, easily some of the best food that had ever been served at Hogwarts, and that says a lot because the food here is always great. There were some easy discussions during dinner, mostly between the teachers.
"Miss Lenox, how are you feeling about your stay here this Christmas?" Mcgonagall asked me.
"Oh it's good" I said trying to avoid talking.
"Good, good, not getting lonely I hope. It quite a big castle to be in when there's so little of us here" she spoke with a gentle voice.
"Not at all, professor. Mattheo has been good company" I said without really thinking of how that might have sounded to Severus sense Mattheo made that same comment when we dropped of the cookies.
