Author’s Note: hey guys! Thanx 4 reviewing! Another great story
to check out is Lost and Found by Ehann who is a very talented writer.
Does anyone else think
that it’s stupid that fanfiction has taken all NC-17 fics off? I so do!
Thanks so much for your
comments everyone and I’m soooo glad u liked the first chapter! Sorry to
everyone who asked for a longer chapter – this one is quite short but I will
hopefully get the next chapter up later 2nite.
Also, to anyone who is a
bit confused, DON’T worry – ur meant to be confused. All will be explained very
soon and the story will really start. Individual thanks at the bottom.
As
Severus walked cautiously into the circular room, he was all too aware of the
numerous portraits of former Headmasters of Hogwarts gazing down at him as if
they still owned the place. They made him feel ridiculously uncomfortable, and
he longed to lash out at them; rip them to shreds for daring to make him feel
inadequate.
A muscle near his temple
twitched convulsively, and he found himself taking yet another deep, calming
breath, before continuing his journey across the room that he had adored as a
child at Hogwarts.
When he had entered the
room, Severus had felt sure that someone (undoubtedly Minerva) had exited the
room as quickly as possible. This, although out of character for him, had set
him on edge. Just what exactly were they planning? Along with the
ever-increasing feelings of apprehension and discomfort, he pushed this thought
down into the deep, dark depths of his forever-scarred soul. But, however hard
he tried, he could not push down the over-riding feeling of guilt.
He now stood behind the
high-backed plum-red plush armchair in which she sat. tears rolled silently
down her pale face, and the merrily crackling fire in the hearth in front of
her cast flickering shadows upon her profile. For once in his life, Snape felt
compassionate when he realised how pathetic and helpless she looked.
Severus moved around the
chair and knelt humbly on the rug in front of the weeping girl. She sensed his
presence, and her head snapped sharply up, startled. A soft gasp escaped her
lips as their eyes met.
He had been expecting
nothing short of revulsion, contempt and anger form the girl sat in front of
him, or at the very least, horror at having to set eyes on his face again. To
his astonishment, he received none of these emotions, and he was thoroughly
shocked when she stuttered out a tear-drenched,
“Pro-professor!” and threw her arms around his neck,
holding him in a tight embrace, the kind he had not received for many years.
Snape sat motionless for a moment, merely staring at the young woman with her
arms around his neck in a death grip, crying copiously into his shoulder.
From the corner of the
room, a small yet meaningful cough brought the professor back to his senses,
and also reminded him that although Minerva was gone, Albus was still very much
in the room. Very hesitantly, he raised a pale, elegant hand to her head, and
began to slowly stroke her luxurious chestnut curls with languid movements,
whilst his other hand came to rest in the small of her back. After a few
minutes had passed, Severus began to gently rub her back with his hand,
caressing the skin through her robe with his thumb. A contented moan was issued
from her throat. Conscious of the fact that whilst she had quietened, tears
were still falling freely from her face, he spoke.
“Sssssh, child, it’s alright, everything’s going to be
okay,” he murmured awkwardly, his voice coming out as a croak. “Ssssh, you can
stop crying now. I promise it’s going to be okay, Hermione.”
