A Little Bit of Reading
I was walking through the restricted section of the library, running my hand across the spines of the books looking for something in particular. I was doing some extra homework for Care of Magical Creatures on a particularly odd breed of Chinese unicorn which could breathe fire. The librarian had been a little suspicious of letting me, a Slytherin, into this section of the library but she seemed swayed by my permission slip from Hagrid. Anyway, I walked down the row of books until I noticed a figure sat engrossed in a book and turned back the other way.
After about ten minutes more I had still hadn't found what I was looking for and was getting impatient. "What are you doing here?" asked a voice behind me causing me to jump into the desk attached to the bookcase. "FUCK!" I shouted.
"Language." said the voice. I turned round to have a good old shout at whoever had startled me caused me to jump into a desk when I saw it was Snape. "I'm sorry professor," I said leaning down to rub my knee "I'm just looking for a book."
Snape eyes followed my hand as I rubbed my knee. "Are you quite alright Miss Newnham?" he asked worried. "I'm fine," I said straightening up "it's nothing." I tried to stand up on my leg but it was too painful and stood on the other. "You're clearly not, let me have a look." he said.
"No, honestly, I'm fine."
"Look either I have a look at it or you'll have to hobble down to the hospital wing." he said sternly.
I sighed and he lifted me up onto the desk attached to bookcase, he was surprising strong for such a skinny man, but I knew that already. I pulled up my skirt to my mid-thigh so he could see my knee. He passed different parts of my knee until I winced and then he stood back and looked at me. After a moment of thinking he spoke. "It's just going to be a bruise." I said.
"I told you it was nothing," I replied looking at him "I'm as tall as you."
"Pardon?" he asked.
"I'm nearly as tall as you, sir." I replied putting emphasis on the sir and leaning forward.
"Why yes you are, Newnham." He said moving closer. I leant against the book case, pulled my skirt up a little more and he took another step towards me. "I'm tall enough now." I said quietly.
"Tall enough for what?" he asked moving closer so he was only one small step away from me. I put out my arm, grabbed his shirt and pulled him closer. "Tall enough to kiss you." I said kissing him and rapped my legs around his waist. I laced my hand through his hair and he used one hand support me as he lifted me off the desk and the other he laced through my hair. "We have to stop meeting like this professor." I said to him.
"That Miss Newnham, is the basis for a dentition."
"I was counting on it."
"Thirty minutes, my office." He said putting me back down on the desk and walking out leaving me there a little flustered.
