Severus awoke feeling disoriented and slightly out of body. He could tell
from the small globe on his night-stand that it was his normal time to
awake. The glass sphere showed the sun was in position to begin rising in
an hour. There was something on his chest and for a moment he thought he
was paralyzed until he realized his muscles were highly relaxed. He opened
his eyes and looked at his chest. A ball of green and gray leather lay
next to him and a blanket of silken black hair lay across his chest. He
reached with the hand that wasn't holding her and brushed her hair aside so
he could see her face. Sparkling leaves glittered in her eyes as she
smiled at him and he jumped slightly. "How long have you been awake?" "I
woke up when you did, your breathing changed."
He just stared at her, waiting for her to dissipate as he woke up. She stretched and kissed his belly lightly before she left the bed. She started to walk towards the bath, slowly removing the laces at her thighs. "Well I don't know about you but I plan to start the day with a hot bath." He blinked after her as she walked, she paused halfway across the room. "Some company would be nice if it wouldn't be too much of an ordeal this time." She grinned over her shoulder at him and tossed her top at him lightly. He was up like a first year and at the door in a shot. She laughed as they entered the hall together.
Her hair hid her from his view as they entered the bath but as she walked he caught a glimpse of the curve of her bust and flushed. He leaned over the bath and started it filling, he added an oil that made the room smell like the forest after the rain. Her pants dropped beside him and her bare calf brushed his shoulder faintly as she stepped into the tub. He quickly removed his pants and slid in quickly after her. She walked to the far side of the tub and turned to smile at him. The water was already up to their waists and he strode over to her. He reached out and lightly grabbed her arm, and sighed when she did not disappear. She smiled coyly at him and clasped his arm in turn. "Don't worry, if you fall asleep again I'll pull you out of the pool." He barked a laugh and pulled her against his chest.
She tucked her free arm around his neck and he wrapped his around her waist. They looked like dancers for a moment caught mid-step in a waltz. The water reached their chests and shut itself off. Severus' eyes flashed and he moved to catch her earlobe in his teeth. She closed her eyes and ran her fingernails across his scalp. The perfume of her hair and the oils filled his nostrils as he ran his teeth up the edge of her ear. She moaned softly and clutched him tightly to her body. She lightly ran her finger nails down the sides of his back and he quivered against her. He ran his tongue from her ear lobe down to the hollow of her shoulder and lightly bit her again. She moaned louder and raked her nails more firmly up the center of his back.
She ducked her head so that they were face to face and then they were kissing. He reached out and gripped the edge of the tub, pressing her against the wall. They kept their lips together in a firm kiss, then she slightly parted her lips, moving his open and drew the air from his lungs into her own before softly exhaling. They breathed together for a moment and then softly began to caress each other's lips with their tongues. He whimpered slightly and she dragged her nails up the outside of his thighs. He groaned loudly and released the wall to grab two handfuls of her long hair. She moved against him faintly, moving them towards the stairs.
As they glided from one side of the bath to the other they ran their hands along each other's bodies. Their fingers paused to tease sensitive spots and slid on in a vine-like pattern. They were both lost in their senses, memorizing the sights sounds and smells of each other. Finally they reached the stairs, she guided him to sit halfway out of the water. She pressed against him caressing his hair and neck, pulling her hands down to rub along his chest. She moaned softly with each breath in and purred happily with each breath out. He traced her body as if he were magically conjuring her from the air and water. He would shift from the lightest fingertip brushes to firm strokes of his palm. His long fingers, so nimble from his work danced with skill across her body.
He pulled her up gently to kiss her soft mouth, to relish her warm lips and as she shifted to meet his lips with hers she moved so that he entered her. He gasped softly and almost pulled away from her but her lips held him in check. Their hand found each other and they laced their fingers together. Gently she began to move on top of him slowly bringing him as far into her as he could fit and then almost withdrawing. They dipped their heads towards each other like owls after a mouse each seeking to land a kiss on the other's neck.
As the pace increased Severus released her hands and brought his down to her thighs. He worked them up her soft skin in short bursts matching her movements. Finally they pressed against each other and their soft cries echoed through the bath chamber as climaxed together. He reached behind her swiftly and pulled her tightly to his chest. He buried his hawkish nose deep into her long hair and wept quietly. She could hear the faint sound of his tears felt the extreme release in his body. She held him to her and subtly pulled them back to the center of the water where they held each other quietly in the light steam of the bath.
Finally Kira broke the silence that had enveloped them as she gently brushed the hair from his forehead. "You realize, I hope, that you'll never be able to get rid of me now." Severus lifted his head from her shoulder and peered into her eyes. His brow furrowed slightly and he held her tighter to his chest. "Why on Earth would I ever want to?" She smiled playfully and twirled a bit of his hair around one finger. "Well the novelty might wear off when I start leaving dead mice at the foot of your bed." He laughed and spun them lightly in the pool. He dipped and nibbled at the finger playing with his hair. "As long as you don't leave them in my slippers I think we'll be fine."
They laughed together and drifted in lazy circles in the water. She reached up quietly at one point and caught one of his tears on her finger from it's perch on his cheek. "I didn't think I was being rough, did I injure you?" He snorted and wrapped his fingers around hers. "No, of course not. Let's call it a slight overreaction to the situation." She tipped her head slightly and he laughed. "I am not the most, liked, member of the faculty and due to my position I have had to push everyone in my life as far from myself as possible." He drew a deep breath and drew his hand through her hair. "It is, overwhelming, to be the focus of so much loathing and suddenly be the focus of…" He searched her face for the word that his mind wouldn't allow him to speak. She moved so that her nose was just touching his. "Genuine affection?" "It is not a luxury I thought I would ever have again." He spoke softly and firmly, looking her right in the eye.
"Then we make perfect sense really, I faced the same thing when I entered the glass." She caressed his cheek softly and smiled when he kissed her fingers. "I hope my relentless attentions won't prove too much for you." He let out an evil chuckle and pinned her against the side of the pool. "I can take you on, I think." She laughed and wrapped her arms and legs around him. "I'm at your mercy oh ruthless one." They laughed and kissed and made love in and around the pool until well into the afternoon. They finally paused for a meal and so he could tour the grounds with her.
She attacked the roast beef he presented her with even more zeal than the tea sandwiches. There was something comical to him about the large black owl eating a sandwich that he spent much of lunch chuckling. They had agreed that she would not leave his room any way but as the owl and he would not leave his room without her. He could communicate with him as the owl but her voice was not as clear as it had been as the wolf but he understood body language well. Together they toured the main parts of the school Snape roamed. They also went to several places he didn't tend to frequent including the owlry and the entrances to each of the dorms.
