"As you know the dark lord has recruited the dementors, " Professor Snape told me, while we were standing in the d.a.d.a. room.
"Since we have already trained the Patronus charm in class, I know that you are capable of summoning a Patronus. But you have never faced a dementor before. It is a huge difference if you stand in front of one trying to summon your Patronus or if you just do it in an empty room, " he then went on explaining.
"So you brought a boggart? Knowing how much I fear to experience my worse memories again and since that is what dementors do you figured mine would turn into a dementor?"
Snape who had been walking to the right corner of the room abruptly turned around. Looking at me strangely.
"Not bad, (y/l/n)" he said and it made me smile brightly.
But would it turn into a dementor? Well, it did four years ago but what did I fear the most right now? That nightmare I had the other night jumped into my head again... No, it wouldn't... Would it?!
"Be prepared, " Snape said. I grabbed my wand tightly and gave him a nod signaling I was ready. He opened the box the boggart was in with a flick of his wand and out came a dementor. I felt relive wash over me.
"Expecto-" but then it started to change his form...
All of a sudden an obviously physically abused professor Snape kneeled in front of me.
"Help me..." He whispered.
"Please" I wanted to scream, wanted to do something but I couldn't move one inch. My body started to shake and my eyes got watery. A green light came out of nowhere hitting him right in the chest.
"No, " was all I was able to whisper.
This is only an illusion! Get it together! I focused again.
"ridiculous!" I said steadily. And the dead professor in front of me turned into confetti.
I kept my head down, while the boggart went back into his box.
Fuck. That wasn't supposed to happen.
I lifted my head looking at my shocked professor.
"I... I always was scared of my worse memories coming back at me.
But now that my family is gone and I lost my only friend..."
"So there is no one else to worry about?" He sarcastically asked.
"No! That's not my point! I myself have wandered into the background. And since you are in constant danger, I often find myself very worried about you, "I gave back now desperately trying to convince him that it wasn't just because he was the only one left. Why the hell am I trying that? It would be the easy way out! But I would also lie.
"You would be better off minding your own business." And there he goes again... Pushing me away.
"And maybe you should drink more often. I prefer your drunken less derogatory state!" I hissed, then I turned around wanting to leave the room. But the next thing I knew was that my wrist was grabbed, I got turned around and now found my self pinned against the massive wooden door, Snape holding me in place.
"If I was you I'd be careful what I say,"
he growled.
"And if I was you I wouldn't always pretend to be a cold ars prick, " I hissed back.
"Careful (y/l/n), don't push your boundaries!" I got back getting pushed even further into the door.
Two could play that game. I pushed him back twirling him and his arm around.
"Same goes for you, sir" I gave back to him while letting go. I always knew my combat training would help me someday.
"I worry about you constantly because you are of great importance to me. I respect you and I appreciate you as a person. So it is only natural to worry!"
It was silent for a bit. Our eyes we're looked at each other. It was like he tried to read me.
"There is no need to worry, " my professor announced.
"We will continue your training tomorrow, same time, same place."
I nodded.
"Good night, Professor Snape, " I softly told him.
"Good night..." He said as I walked off.
When I was around the corner of the corridor, the realization hit me. The hole pushing against the door, threatening thing... He had tried to intimidate me, to gain distance back... To push me away because what he had seen spoke for its own.
