Merman
By: Elnora
Hermione slipped out of Severus' arms covering her face. Severus reached out to comfort her again. To make her stop crying. But Hermione backed away. She turned her back to him and strode to the window. Severus could feel the anxiety. The pain she was in...He angry turned his back to her as well. He could feel her gaze turn to his back when he turned around. She was aware of his every move.
,,Hermione, please...''
,,Stop it... you don't know how it's like.'' She sobbed. He couldn't stand to see her like that. He neared her standing one inch from her, without touching.
I want to tell her so many things, if she'd only listen!
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Now no one can call you back
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Finally, you're pepper minted land
Hermione backed away from Severus. He kept begging for her approval and access to her heart. But she felt her heart lock up. She hurt Severus by turning her back at him. He turned from her as well. It hurt to see him like this.
Stop it...Her stomach hurt. Severus approached her. Suddenly he was right behind her. she could tell by the warm breath in her neck.
Hermione look at him...
He's a merman
He doesn't need your voice
He's a merman
Severus could feel her urge to be held by him, and his hands almost dared to touch as she collapsed to the ground. Severus threw himself down. He wanted to wrap her inside his arms, but he dared not. Hermione hid herself. Why did she hide before him? Hadn't he been open enough? Severus wanted to pad her on her head, but that would be too ridiculous and fatherly. She sobbed hard now, he had to do something!
Go to bed, dream instead
Hermione dried her eyes to meet Severus' big black pools. A flood surrounded them as she only wanted to be wrapped inside if his arms. Look at him...
And you will find him
He's a merman eternally
He doesn't need something you're not willing to give
He's a merman
Doesn't need your voice to cross his land
For lies
,,Hold me Severus,'' She whispered. Severus put his arm around her hiding her in his cloak. She was so small.
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Now no one can call you back
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Finally you found it and
Who could ever say you're not simply wonderful?
Who could ever harm you
Go to sleep now
You're my little girl
Go to bed, the priests are dead
And go and sing it all again
Go to bed, past the apple orchard and you'll feel nice
Two can play, I said two can play
He's a merman
He doesn't need your voice
He's a merman
Words were exchanged without saying,
Feelings were told without telling,
Love was felt just there
He was a merman letting her be in, they were stuck in motion touching briefly. He was her most beloved creature and the only one left.
