PERFIDIOUS (READER X SEVERUS SNAPE)

CONTROL

"We can't afford to lose points we are up against Gryffindor next term" He continued.

Marcus stormed off and the rest of the team followed, Draco looked back at you and sighed as he chucked his boots into his duffel bag.

You walked to the changing rooms and got dressed back into normal clothes as quickly as possible. You noticed the boys hadn't left the changing rooms yet, you wanted to apologise so you waited near the exit of the quidditch tent.

While waiting you noticed a cabinet of trophies and a pin board covered in old daily prophet newspaper clippings.

As you scanned through the headlines, a photograph of a previous Slytherin quidditch team caught your eye. You noticed someone who looked exactly like your father but there was no description.

Terence noticed you looking at the board and walked up to you.

"Don't let today get you down Y/ln, everyone has bad days and anyway, I've seen how you can play I know you're better than that. Flint is just stressed right now" Terence said, putting his arm on your shoulder.

You looked at Terence and smiled appreciating what he said. You looked back at the photograph and pulled the pin out gently that was holding it up.

"Terence, do you know who that is?" You questioned pointing to whom you thought was your father.

Terrence took the photograph from you to get a better view of it, he turned it over and read a faded handwritten note on the back.

"That man is... Andrew apparently" Terence said passing the photograph back to you.

You looked down at it again, your fathers name is Steven not Andrew.

It looks exactly like him that is strange

Marcus walked over and put his hand on Terence's back, he didn't give you eye contact.

"Let's go mate" Marcus said to Terence.

Terence took his bag from Marcus and they headed out of the tent together. You folded up the photograph and put it in your pocket, you then took a slow walk back to the castle for dinner.

After news of losing the game no Slytherin wanted to sit beside you at dinner leaving at least a few seats gap away from you. Draco saw everyone had purposely avoided you so he sat down next to you.

"I messed up today I know, you don't have to tell me Draco so spare your oxygen for someone else" You huffed, shoving the last of your dinner in your mouth.

"I wasn't going to actually say anything but whatever" Draco said shrugging his shoulders.

You saw Snape walking down from the teachers table, you stood up instantly and rushed to get out of the great hall to get away from him.

Snape got in front of you making you stop walking any further.

"What is so hard to understand? I said you have a month of detention Miss Y/ln" He questioned with a harsh tone.

You gulped.

"Ensure you attend tonight" Snape added, he then turned around and walked off to his classroom before you could reply.
