His Half Blood Princess 2

35 Sickles Only

Older students pointed out which, where & who were their siblings, and others looked at the muggle-borns suspicously. But the place seemed frankly fine. "Now, when we call your name, you shall be sorted into your Hogwarts house. Adams, Jospehine!"

A small girl made her way nervously through the crowd of first years, and almost tripped the way to the stool. Scarlet made her way towards her, then leaned besider her ear. "Don't be nervous. Your choice, your house." she smiled warmly at her. The girl's eyes widened, and the Sorting Hat was placed on her head. Only a few minutes when the hat screamed: "GRYFFINDOR!"

Scarlet smirked as she slowly took the hat off and walked towards Severus. He looked at her over his nose, then called: "Brookes, Augustus!"
"SLYTHERIN!"

Severus grinned mischeviously, as he turned to Scarlet. There was a little bet that was agreed, see. Whosever's house was sorted the most, will ask for something they want...
"Butler, Weston!"
"RAVENCLAW!"

"Vaddlesprout, Sophie!"
"HUFFLEPUFF!"

"Gawdrey, Trevor!"
"GRYFFINDOR!"

And after the next 42 students were Sorted, Minerva gave her speech. Later, she clasped her hands, making the food -that has been craved for the past minutes- appear on the golden plates. Both professors turned to their seats as quietly as they can. Severus looked at Scarlet's smirk and rolled his eyes. He watched as his witch had a little conversation with Professor Longbottom.

As the feast was near to its end, Minerva stood up once again. "May I have your attention, please? Thank you. This school year, I would like to welcome our dear first years. But be warned. For the 113th time, give or take..? Mr. Filch has requested me to tell you: No pranks or running down the halls during school hours... Or anytime. But for now, I know all of you are tired and full for the rest of the night. Oh, and House Prefects, please be reminded that we will have a meeting at 7. Now, shall we sing our school's song?."

Scarlet looked at Sev with a small smile, then looked at the House tables. "Hogwarts Hogwarts Hoggy Woggy Hogwarts teach us something please!"

They all ended the night with endless laughter while the couple walked to their chambers. As they entered in, Scarlet opened the lights, and unexpectedly hugged Severus warmly. "Are you alright?" he asked in her ear. "Nope. Just tired... Do you want me to stop -?" she replied. "No. In fact, keep it that way" then he hugged her back.

In a few seconds, she pulled away and walked to the bedroom. As she started pulling out her nightwear, he came in as well, beggining to hug her from the back. He traced his arms around her stomach seducingly. "What are you trying to do, Sev? Gryffindor had more students sorted than Slytherin." she said, trying not to get distracted from what she was doing. "Correction: It was Ravenclaw THEN Gryffindor." he told her in a matter-of-fact tone. "But still, we had a bet. Whose house was sorted the most will get anything they want."
"Well then, darling, what do you want?"

"Good question..." Scarlet then thought of what she could ask for. Severus wasn't a rich wizard, not a poor one either... Just right. Yet, what does she want? She was eyeing that new coat she saw in Hogsmead the other day... But the only thing that stopped her from buying it, was that she need 35 more sickles to complete the amount.

"35 Sickles." she answered, then felt him widen his eyes behind her. "35 Sickles? That's what you want in a bet? Money?"
"If you don't want it, I'll change it to a brass cauldron thank you very much."
He rolled his eyes. "I would gladly give you 35 sickles... But I have not received my pay yet. It's still the start of term." She laughed shortly at him, then crossed her arms. "Fine. Besides, you do not need to pay anything. It's all for fun" she said with a smile. "Nonsense... I did make the bet, and you won fairly."

Scarlet dramatically gasped. "The Professor Severus Snape also the known as the Dungeon Bat? Being fair?" she joked. "Alright, I'll give you 35..." he whispered in her ear.

She stopped then asked: "35 what?"

He slowly tilted his head and pressed his thin lips against her neck. "Sev... Stop..." Scarlet giggled as he pulled away at each kiss and counted. "5... 6... 7..... 12... 13... 14..... 24... 25...." (Imagine Snape/Alan counting out loud though...) But his voice seemed to have trailed off, and he slowly placed his left arm towards the right, that made Scarlet turn around to face him.

"I believe we've gone beyond 35 kisses" she laughed. "I'll give you a hundred more if only we didn't have any classes tomorrow." he replied grumpily. She smiled at him once again, that made his frown disappear. "I guess I would enjoy a hundred teases, but I think one little kiss good night would be better."

"I must admit; I agree."
He gently grabbed her chin, and closed the gap between them. But after a few seconds, she quickly pulled away. "Scarlet?" he asked confusingly. "I didn't want to turn you on before the first day of school."

"You already have you damned woman, so you better run or the beast will catch you."

"I'll make sure of that." She smirked, walking up to him and travelled a hand  downwards his crotch. She held hold of something and pulled up, creating a loud zip noise. "But I suggest you close your zipper when chasing that poor little wolf pup, hmm?" (Let's see who read that in a dirty way😂)
