Severus stood up and grabbed my hand tightly, staring down at me sympathetically "I have changed... But some things you won't understand." He said "You don't love me. You can't." He continued.
"But Severus... I do. I can't help it. I might not understand but I can Atleast try." I said sweetly "I am not dragging you into this mess." He stated "please... I want to help you." I said sweetly once again. He sighed intently "Fine... But if I say something I expect you to listen and carry out that task... No matter what." He demanded.
I nodded my head hesitantly "Good. Now it's getting late, we have to get to class early tomorrow to finish grading parchments." He said letting go of my hands as they fell limp at my side. He walked around his room preparing things for tomorrow, I made my way towards the door and opened it "(F/N)..." He said coldly gaining my attention.
"I love you too..." He said quietly I smiled and left the room closing his door quietly behind me. I let out a deep breath and ran a hand through my hair as I stood paralyzed, what the fuck just happened? I asked myself smiling like an idiot.
I shook it off and walked next door to my room I pushed open the door tiredly. I set my wand on my nightstand next to my bed and made my way into my small powder room. I took off my clothes as I ran the water to take a warm shower. Once the water was warm enough I stepped in and enjoyed the hot water, I did my basic necessities then stepped out and wrapped a towel around my warm wet body.
I got out of the bathroom and stepped into my room and dug through my drawers finding a warm comfy white night gown. I put my bra and underpants on and threw the night gown on over top. I pulled the covers back and got under, as my head hit the pillow I immediately passed out.
I awoke to my alarm blaring loudly I was panting slightly and I was sweating. I shut my alarm off and began getting ready for the day. I brushed my hair and teeth then put on a tight short pencil skirt with a white flowing blouse that had a loose hanging bow around the collar. I slipped a pair of black heels on and grabbed my wand and cloak before exiting the room. I knocked lightly on Severus' door.
Severus opened the door as he stepped out of his room shutting the door behind him. "Ready?" He asked I smiled sweetly up at him, even with heels on I was still shorter than him.
"Of course..." I said as we walked silently he grasped my hand lightly I blushed a crimson red. He opened the dungeon doors letting me go in first I stepped into the chilling room and made my way towards my desk.
I sat down silently as he sat in the large desk next to me. "We only have about an hour before it's time for breakfast." He said tiredly. I nodded and quickly began grading parchments.
"Severus..." I questioned looking up at the black haired man. "Yes, my dear?" He answered not looking away from the parchment. "I... just want to say that..." he then interrupted me.
"I love you too..." he said coldly my cheeks burned red as I looked back at my parchment in a daze. It was getting around the time for breakfast and I was pretty hungry, not to the point of starvation but I was getting close.
"You hungry?" Severus asked putting down the last piece of parchment he graded i nodded quickly. "Well, come on then..." he said standing and stretching gracefully.
"Are you hungry?" I asked looking up at him "not really." He said walking to the front of his desk I did the same and we began making our way silently to the main hall. Once we got there we quickly made our way to our seats, I sat down next to snape.
An owl flew through the window gracefully landing down in front of me "Owl post came early today..." I began before taking the letter off the owls small foot.
"That's unusual... this must be urgent." Snape said glaring at the parchment.
Dear (F/N),
Guess what? IM PREGNANT! I am so excited and surprised I can't believe this is actually happening, you know with my illness. I just hope the baby will be healthy. By the way last night someone came looking for you. I believe it was your old head master. He wanted me to tell you that he's fine. Just remember what he told you and trust him. I don't know what that's all about... anyways I love you!
best wishes,
Mary Jane
I finished the letter with a sigh of relief and a small smile "what is it?" Snape hissed. I fumbled with the thick piece of paper "it's uh... nothing." I debated on what to tell him, I attempted to shut my minds eye.
"My sister is pregnant." I said looking into his mischievous eyes. "Children... I can't stand them." He spat. I looked at him confused "then why did you want to be a teacher?" I asked.
"It was mainly for dumbledores sake." He breathed skeptically as the great hall filled with students. Hagrid had not shown up to breakfast. Which was strange because he's usually here. I began worrying about hagrid but figured that he was fine since he was half giant and all.
I ate my breakfast happily thinking about my sister.
