The only thing I remember is being given my phone back and given a book, then, I guess I passed out.

I woke up and rubbed my eyes. Before opening them, I noticed I wasn't in my bed. I opened my eyes and surveyed my surroundings, my eye sight a little blurry still.
I was in a much larger bed than my own. I propped myself up on my elbow and sighed, feeling the sheets and pillows. Once my sight adjusted, I saw that I was in Snape's quarters, and in his bed. I blushed a bright red and became frantic. I felt myself over, making sure I was okay physically. I was still in my gown from the night before. I heard footsteps on the other side of the door and braced myself. The door opened and Snape walked in.
"Good morning," He said softly. I gave a light smile and a nod.
"Are you alright?" He asked, noticing my strange behavior.
"I-I'm fine, sir..." I began.
"I-I just... Don't remember anything after you gave me my phone and a book..." I said nervously.
"And that's all that happened, besides you falling fast asleep in my arms," He reassured. I let out a breath of relief.
"Professor Flitwick wasn't around to let me into the Ravenclaw tower to put you to bed so I just brought you here."
"Why didn't you just put me on the couch? I-I don't want you to be bothered by me."
"It was no bother. I don't mind sleeping on the couch once in a while." He gave a small smile. I smiled back and stretched myself out.
"Merry Christmas, by the way," He said, sitting on the edge of the bed. I had completely forgotten.
"Merry Christmas to you too, professor," I said softly.
"And... thank you," I said, looking down at my hands.
"What for?"
"For... everything." I smiled. He just looked at me, a small smile on his face. He then sighed and looked away for a moment.
"I need you to understand where I am in all of this," He began.
"I am a teacher, and as such, being with a student is entirely inappropriate and could cause both of us major problems." I nodded in understanding.
"And the headmaster knows everything that goes on in this castle." I added.
"Exactly, so, I'm afraid nothing can come of this until you graduate." He stated. I gave a nod.
"I understand, professor," I said, smiling. I got out of bed and stretched before adjusting my dress.
"You did a wonderful job, by the way." He said, walking over to the side of the bed I was on.
"Hm? Oh, thanks. I mean, I tried." I said with a shrug. He chuckled lightly and put his hands on my waist.
"I would love to see what else you can make," He said, kissing my forehead. I couldn't help but blush. This was going to take some getting used to.
"Is that a challenge?"
"Perhaps." I laughed a little and hugged Snape tightly.
"Challenge accepted, professor," I smirked.
"You may call me Severus, when we are outside of class and away from others." He said, letting go of me. I smiled and looked up at him.
"Very well, Severus. I should be on my way. My parents probably sent me some stuff that has yet to be opened." I said, walking out of his bedroom and down the stairs. He stopped me from leaving his quarters.
"I have yet to give you my gift, Raven," He said, leaning against the door.
"Oh? I didn't know you got me something. What is it?" I questioned, now excited. Before I could question him anymore, he leaned down and kissed me gently. I was taken aback for a moment before I tapped into reality and realized what was happening. I kissed back and slowly wrapped my arms around his neck. He seemed to like this as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. His lips were a little cold, but soft. He was gentle and tender. I could feel his energy sync with mine. After a few moments, I pulled away and rested my forehead against his.
"That will forever be my favorite gift ever given to me." I said softly. He gave a low chuckle.
"I'm glad. Now go, before your friends get suspicious." I laughed lightly and opened the door, rushing out, my heels clicking against the stone floor.
