Hard to Love 2 (Reader x Severus Snape) COMPLETED

Chapter 11

Erin's POV

It's been 3 weeks since that voice got into my head, I keep questioning who it was though, even though I said I wouldn't.

I was walking to breakfast and I ran into Andy.

"Hey, Rin. I'm sorry for how I acted.. I should've said something when he appointed an assignment towards you." He sighed and grabbed my hand

"I should apologize too," I sniffed, "I ignored you for 3 weeks, almost a month."

"I get where you're coming from, I gave you space and I wanted to see if you wanted to continue this.. us.." he smiled in hope

"Andy, I want to still be friends, but I haven't really decided yet.. it's honestly the last thing on my mind.." I sighed and kissed him on the cheek, "I love you, but, I can't focus on a relationship right now."

"I get it, Erin." He smiled and let go of my hand, "I'll see you later." He walked away, he was upset..

I got a sharp headache.

"Help me."

I shook it off and looked around, I didn't pass out this time.

"What the hell." I said under my breath

I couldn't keep wondering, I have to go to Dumbledore.

I made my way there, I muttered the password and walked up the stairs, I walked in and he looked at me and smiled.

"I was expecting you, Erin."

"I figured, but it's not about Draco. It's about the voice I heard 3 weeks ago, I heard it again, and I don't know why, or who it is." I sighed and sat down on his couch with my head in my hands, "It sounds so familiar.."

"Severus said it could've been someone just calling for help that the dark lord has captured, or maybe even Bellatrix trying to lure you in." He said

"What if it isn't, what if it's someone I know." I shrugged

"I would just leave it alone for right now, Erin. It's best to leave Severus to it." Dumbledore smiled

I turned around because someone else was walking in.

"Speak of the devil." He smiled, "Hello Severus."

"Smith? Shouldn't you be at breakfast?" He looked at  me.

"I heard the voice again, it said 'help me' and I.. it sounded familiar.." I sighed

"Smith, I will take care of it, I can search his dungeons. I'll let you know if I find anyone if interest." He smirked

"Thank you.." I sighed and walked out.

Who was it..

The beginning of Christmas Break
Snape's POV

I was making sure no one was looking, I made my way into to dungeon and looked around, I didn't see anyone that Smith would know. I got to the last cell and I gasped quietly at who I saw.

"Severus, how is she?"

"She's.. fine.." I said still in shock

"The others?"

"Fine too, very well in class.. focused.. determined.." I said

"I've been trying to reach out to them.. I had no idea that I was one of you.. but.. I don't know how I couldn't have known."

"Your parents could've hid it from you." I looked back towards the door, "I need to go, before I get caught, stop trying to reach out to them. It makes her pass out, and the others a headache, I'll try to find a way for you.." I walked away and headed up to the exit.
