Haunting Me
Chapter One: Seeing
While he was alive no one asked questions of his past. No one dared to ask this man what evil things he had done, things that still haunt his very soul. Severus Snape is a man of many shadows, but the shroud of death is not one he has mastered. Now his soul haunts Hogwarts and can not be released until someone listens to him.

Hermione stared straight through the flames as she sat in the Headmistress' office. The years that had gone by since she last entered Hogwarts made her feel old. Hugo and Rose had graduated several years prior and this fact dawned on Hermione as she stared at the flames. She focused her eyes and turned them towards the clock above the mantle.
'So much time has gone by. So much time. Where is Minerva?' She jumped when a noise from behind her startled her. As she turned her body towards the noise she noticed that the air had grown colder.
'What is going on?' She swiveled her eyes as she saw a black shape morph out of the wall in her peripheral. She covered her mouth to stifle the gasp so as not to attract the figure, but the form turned towards her with a look of shock on his pale face.
.........SS.........
Severus' clear, black eyes widened when he heard a gasp next to him. He turned towards the person and his eyes widened even more, his mouth falling open with the force of the shock he felt. Not only was someone looking right in the vicinity of him, it was The Hermione Granger, his personal torturer for six, almost seven, long years of his life.
"You can see me?" He asked uncertainly as he floated closer to her.

A/N This is my first fanfiction, and I hope it goes over well. I am a HG/SS shipper, however I don't think it will lean into Romance... I think. I really don't know if my muse will be okay with that.. It is labeled for what happens in the future. I don't know when I will post next, depends on what happens during my real life... Cheers!
