18 - I Had Nowhere Else

I looked around me as my clothes quickly began to become soaked from the water of the rain. The street was lined with houses, all looking the exact same to each other. This helped me confirmed that I did indeed apparate to Spinner's End properly. 

I walked down the street a bit of ways, it was quiet and empty. I looked at the numbers on each of the homes until I saw the one I recognized on the corner. Reluctantly I went up to the door and knocked. 

It was later in the day, around supper time so he'd surely be home. I looked around the street as I waited, then looked up at the rest of the home, noticing all the windows were closed and the curtains were too. I moved a wets strand of hair away from my face and sighed. I knocked again and waited once more. 

The door finally opened to a still formally dressed, but more relaxed looking Severus without the billowing robes behind him. 

"I had nowhere else to go..." I said looking at him. 

He didn't waste any time to fully open the door and pull me inside. His him was warm and smelled just like him, much like his room in Hogwarts. 

"What happened?" H asked me, pulling me in for a hug. I dropped my bag and hugged him back. 

"My mum and I got in a fight and I just... I couldn't take it anymore. So I apparated here and..." I started sniffling, not even realising I was crying. He pulled away from me and held my face in his hands. He wiped my tears away with his thumb and immediately I felt safe with him. 

"You're freezing, darling. How about I go run you a warm bath so you can calm down?" He asked me in a soft and comforting voice, still holding me close. 

"Yes please," I said, a small coming to my face. He let go of me and placed a hand on my back, leading me further into his house. I let him take me all the wat to the bathroom where he started running the after for the bath. 

"There's a robe in the wardrobe, if you'd like to get undressed I can go dry your clothes." He offered, to which I nodded, with a small blush. He went back over to the door but not without stopping to kiss my forehead. He stepped outside the room and left me to change. 

I took off my wet clothes and my undergarments and folded them all up, putting them by the sink. I took the robe out from the wardrobe and wrapped it around be, trying the strap on it to keep it secure. 

Looking into the mirror I noticed how pale I looked considering it was summer. I had bags under my eyes and yet again I lost some weight. I took a closer look at myself, noticing my figure. I was certainly a woman now. My chest suck out now, and you could faintly see the outline of my nipples through the grey robe. I wasn't a little girl now, I was a woman. 

"Are you done, Y/N?" Severus asked, cracking the door open just a bit. 

"Yes, thank you, Severus." I said. He walked in and turned off the water now that the bath was full. He turned to me and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. 

"I told you I'd provide if you needed anything, did I not?" He smiled lightly and I out my forehead against his. 

"And I thank you for that." I looked into his eyes and kissed him after what felt like forever of not being able to. He seemed to freeze for a second but I did feel him kiss back. I closed my eyes as his hands went to my waist again, holding onto me gently. 

I played with his hair as we kissed, slowly he ended up pushing my against the wall of the bathroom and one of his hands started trailing up and down my side while his breathing fell out of rhythm. I let this happen, our bodies pressing against each other in what was becoming a mixture of love and lust. 

His hand came up, his fingertips just barely trailing over my breast before her pulled at the collar of the robe. He held onto it for a bit before pulling away from the kiss, leaving my body on fire and me a flustered mess. 

"I'll leave you to your bath, let me know if you need anything." He kissed my head before leaving the bathroom and lightly closed the door behind him. 

I recovered from that moment we just had and let the robe fall off from my body, pooling at my feet on the floor. I got into the warm bath and let myself sink into it, all of the stress and emotional instability going on a pause as I gave myself a moment to relax.

I came out of the bathroom with the robe on after draining the tub. I walked out of the bathroom and finally got a good look at the room. It was a quaint kitchen with a fridge, cupboards, sink, stove, and oven. Off to the side was a table ant then there was the entrance. Across from the door was a flight of stairs, which I went over to. 

As I walked up the stairs I let my hand trail along the smooth finish of the dark wooden railing. I walked up in no hurry. When I came up I saw a door open to another room. I walked in and saw bookshelves along one wall, and a fireplace on the shorter wall. Near the fireplace was an armchair. Sitting on the armchair was Severus reading another book I hadn't seen before. 

He looked up at me and saw me standing there looking around the room. 

"Did you enjoy your bath?" 

"I did, thank you." I folded my hands together in front of me and fidgeted with my fingers.

"I've noticed you do that when you're anxious. What's troubling you?" He folded the book closed and set it on the small table beside the chair.

"Well I'm in an unfamiliar place and everything's just happened so suddenly." I told him.

"Perhaps some clothing would make you feel more comfortable?"

"That might be a good idea." I chuckled and looked over at him. He stood up and walked over to and then past me, going to another door behind me.

"Your clothes aren't dry yet, would you mind wearing some of my own for the time being? They might be quite large on you." He said as he walked into the room which I came to realise was his bedroom.

"No, it's alright." I reassured him as I followed him in. I sat on the very edge of his bed, which looked identical to his one at Hogwarts.

Severus came over with a black dress shirt and handed it to me.

"That should do it." He brushed some hair behind my ear which made me look up at him as he cupped my face.

The position we were in was something distant if an erotic fiction. He was stood before me while I sat on the bed with nothing but a robe on, his fingers delicately tracing my skin. I couldnt help but feel flustered as these th oi ughts entered my mind.

"Uhm... Severus?" I asked again. He pulled his hand away and went over to the window.

"Yes?" He said as he moved, he drew the curtains only to see it was still raining.

"I couldn't help but notice theres only one bedroom, where would I sleep?"

"I thought you wouldn't m in and sharing a bed seeing that we've done it once before, though I understand if you're not ready for that."

"N-No it's fine! It's just that time was different, and yeah." It didn't take me long to start playing with my fingers again.

Severus came over and kneeled on the ground in front of me. He put both of my hands in his own. "The last thing I want is for you to be uncomfortable, Y/N." 

"How about this, we give it a go and I'll tell you if I get uncomfortable. Deal?"

"You have yourself a deal."
