Fire is hot. Ice is cold. The two elements will never work out together. It's destined that they shouldn't. Charlotte Day is a strong-willed, 21 year old woman, her past an icy one. After a series of life-shattering events, she finds herself seeking refuge in the only place she can think of: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Disguising as a student, she eventually meets the dreaded, hot-tempered, Potions Master. Despite their differences, the two broken individuals find each other. However, can an eternal flame ever be extinguished, and an icy past ever be thawed? **Dedicated to the late & great Alan Rickman**

My heart stopped. Fiery electricity shot through my body. Why was my professor kissing me? More importantly, why was I kissing back? I brought my hands up to his neck.I wrapped my arms around his neck and felt a million emotions run through me. His arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me closer. I kissed him harder. I squeezed my eyes shut and lost myself in his arms. He pulled away for breath. “You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to do that,” he whispered more to himself than to me. He quickly pulled away from me.I stumbled backwards. I grabbed one of the shelves and steadied myself. Snape cleared his throat and looked at me. “Isabella, I am so sorry,” Snape says pulling a hand through his hair. “Don’t be… Just do it again,” I say confidently as I take charge and kiss him. After our second kiss I was backed against the wall. Snape leaned down. “Do you know what this means?” I ask in a whisper, “It means you are mine and I am yours. Forever and always.”
