p data-p-id="0855b369906b907bac30908d1e58bba6"Time Jump to the morning of September 1st. Sitting up in his bed, Severus threw the covers off his body. He groaned and thought Ugh! The students are arriving today! Those dunderheads! He put on his usual all black attire for the day. I might skip going to breakfast and eat in my rooms for today, so I don't have to talk with anybody. UGH! He stubbed his toe. Why must this happen to me? Oh! Fuck it! I'll just go down to breakfast. Walking out of the door, he headed to breakfast./p
p data-p-id="41cd80202dfb94e49a8d3810a6333463"Severus noticed that Elizabeth wasn't at breakfast this morning. I wonder why. The thought disappeared from his mind as he sat down and ate. _/p
p data-p-id="ee4fee6ed5af69c5082d20cdf0f47019"Elizabeth was up until 4am finishing her lesson plans for the classes that started September 2nd, so she didn't wake up until noon. Getting out of bed, she walked towards her closet to get dressed and ready for the day. She chose a long black skirt and a Slytherin green shirt to go under her robes. She put on her usual black eyeliner before walking to the Great Hall for lunch./p
p data-p-id="82505db12ff5f8a79a1a6853b3b1bde2"She sat at the end of the left side of the table looking out over the Great Hall. Severus sat next to her, "Where were you this morning?" "Hi to you too," she laughed before continuing, "I stayed up late last night and I slept in." He looked down and started eating his lunch. Minerva McGonagall came in through the staff door and got our attention, "As you all may know, the students will be arriving tonight about 6 so you have about 5 hours to do whatever you wish to do." She proceeded to walk to her spot and sit down to eat./p
p data-p-id="6f772f72ffa5eb67b8d432a174ec8a4b"Elizabeth looked from Minerva to Severus and asked, "What are you going to do for five hours?" He snickered, "Don't you know? I'm going to be my usual snarky-ass self!" Elizabeth laughed and asked, "Seriously Severus?" He laughs and looks at her, "No, but I am going to try and get some sleep before the students get here." She finished with her lunch before Severus did, so she said, "Ok! Well, I'm probably going to do the same thing. I'm going to get right on that, so I'll see you later." She got up after he nodded to go to her room. She set her alarm and took off her shoes. She also went to the bathroom and laid down. Sleep took her quickly. _/p
p data-p-id="6b35caf6aace8e7423af4819bb6fa9f4"Severus was sitting there for a few more minutes after Elizabeth left. He felt a feeling that he hasn't felt in a long time, not since Her. He pushed the feeling back quickly and went to his room. He set an alarm for five thirty. Laying over the covers, sleep took him quickly./p
