Snape x Reader

You wake up and for a second you forgot you were back at Hogwarts. Jane was already up and getting ready. You pull yourself out of bed. You were not a morning person.

You take a shower and put on your uniform.

"Morning y/n!" Jane smiles at you.

"Morning." You say still tired.

"Not a morning person, noted." She laughs and it makes you laugh as well.

"What classes do you have today?" She asks.

"Well first today I have DADA, Charms and Potions, how about you?" You ask.

"Oo I have Potions today two but first I have Divinations and History of Magic." "At least we have potions together!" She says.

"You coming to breakfast with me?" She asks.

"Sure but I don't think I want to eat." You say and you make your way to the great hall.

You just really weren't in the mood to eat right now. You were overthinking about potions class and having to see Snape and spend detention with him.

You look up to see if he's at his spot and he is, once again looking directly at you. Why did he keep staring at you. You were so mad at him but you don't break the eye contact.

You stare him down, waiting for him to back down. You lift an eyebrow, he doesn't look away, he just narrows his eyes at you.

"Hey y/n" Jane nudges your arm, forcing you to break eye contact and you look at her.

"Yeah? sorry." You say.

"It's okay I'm gonna go get ready for class, you coming with?" She asks.

You look back to the head table and he's already gone. "Yeah, let's go." You say.

Your first class of the day was DADA, you heard you had a new professor but you haven't seen them yet. When you walk in you see a tall lanky man wearing a sweater, messy hair and a mustache.

He looks like a nice guy, I guess we'll see.

You were right he was very nice DADA had never been so fun before. His name was Professor Lupin.

He made DADA feel pretty light hearted considering the things you are learning about. When your first class is over you make your way to Charms.

Charms goes by smoothly, nothing too interesting. You were mainly stressing about your last class of the day. Luckily you had a free period and lunch before hand.

small time skip

You didn't go to lunch, you still weren't very hungry and you wanted to skip out on having to see Severus as much as possible considering you'd have to see him during class and detention.

You were making your way to his classroom with Jane. You were honestly so glad you had this class together, you didn't want to be alone in this.

You both walk in and find a seat together. You take a seat at one of the middle tables. All the ones im the back being taking already, everyone wanting to be as far from Snape as possible.

You used to sit right in the front but you didn't want to anymore. Snape enters the class room in his usual fast strong stride, his robes flowing behind him.

It's hard not to stare, he holds so much power just by entering a room. Everyone else looks down at their books in fear but you just couldn't keep your eyes off of him, you never could.

He stops when he's in front of the class, looking around. His eyes landing on you and you don't look away, you smile a little bit.

All the old memories of being in this classroom with him in your head. Genuinely fun times, you had forgotten about recent events. Being back here made it feel like old times.

You continue smiling and he looks at you with a puzzled look. Then you remember and your smile drops and you look down at your book.

He speaks and his voice rings out through the classroom. Telling everyone to open their books and start reading about the first potion we will be learning to brew.

Everyone does as he says immediately. Except you, you were too busy thinking about him.

"Ms. L/n, were my simple instructions not clear enough or are you simply too dim to follow them." He spits.

Ouch.

He has never spoken to you like that before, it hurt immensely. You were shocked. You open your book to the page. You felt like crying but didn't want everyone to see that. His words hurt you so much.

His opinion of you has always mattered so much. Your whole life you always looked up to him and you craved his approval and respect. You've always had it and now he's treating you like this for something you didn't even do?

Everyone starts taking notes and you do too but it's so hard to focus with his words playing over and over in your head.

Or are you simply just too dim....are you simply too dim...focus y/n focus....does he seriously hate me that much? Fuck don't cry, hold it together y/n it's okay. You think to yourself over and over.

Severus is sitting at his desk watching you...listening to your thoughts. It killed hin that he hurt you so much. That he continues to hurt you. He didn't want to hurt you, he never did.

She really thinks I hate her?...can't she see I'm doing all of this because I feel the exact opposite way?

Severus thinks to himself. He couldn't bare it. He knew what started recently couldn't continue but he couldn't allow you to think he hates you. He needs you to know things can he like they used to be.

He didn't want to lose you completely. Maybe he fix this and you could be...friends again.

Authors note: sorry for the short chapter! I'm writing the next one right now! I hope everyone is enjoying so far:)
