Previously….
"You can't trust a man whose loyalty comes with a price.' He argued.
"If that's true then why do I love him so much? There is no love without trust."
He looked into her blue eyes and brushed her cheek with his thumb "That is why you will get hurt. I know you will. I don't trust him at all"
She looked down "I need to check on Remus."
He moved out of her way.
At six thirty, Jessie put on her charms and walked out of her room, then heard a door close down the hall. She stopped and turned to see Severus walking to her.
She smiled "Good morning, Sev."
"Morning, did you get my owl?"
She nodded, still smiling.
He saw threw everything "What's wrong?"
"Can't I just smile at you?"
"Yes. But your covering up something, and I don't like when you don't tell me what's wrong."
"It's nothing. I'm just tired and couldn't sleep."
They started walking down the hall "Is that all that's bothering you?"
"No. But the rest is just… personal I guess you could say."
He nodded "How is your wrist?"
She rolled up her sleeve to show him that the tattoo was doing well "I don't feel it anymore."
He smirked "I can't believe you really got 'another one'."
She smiled "Yes another one. The other isn't anywhere bad before you ask!"
He frowned when she turned to the stairwell. "Where are you going?"
She sighed "I need to see if Remus is ok before I do anything."
"Just come to breakfast first. The house elves made fresh custard muffins for the staff. They are trying a new filling."
She smiled again "If that is what you would like." and she turned back to him.
He noticed something on the back of her neck and stopped her by pushing her soft, curly hair over her shoulder.
Her mark was there. But it looked different. It was much lighter than her skin now.
"That happens when I haven't seen anything in a while."
He nodded.
"Does it freak you out?"
"No. Not after my- well you know."
She chuckled "Let's get some muffins! I'm starving!"
He moved his had from neck, to her back for a moment until they entered the Great Hall, where the students were gathered, talking amongst themselves. As the two walked to their seats, they didn't notice the girl at the Slytherin table.
Rose watched the two professors walk to the staff table unaware of the person sitting next to her.
"You're new here, right?"
Rose looked at the boy from last night. His white blond hair and arm in a sling.
She nodded "Yes."
The boy smirked "I'm Draco Malfoy."
"I'm Rose Fuller." She said without thinking about it. She was just happy she didn't say Layla Potter.
"American?" He asked noticing her accent.
She nodded.
"This is my friend Crabbe." He nodded to the boy stuffing his face.
"I noticed you looking at Professors Snape and Scott."
She shrugged "I guess I was."
"Professor Snape is our Head of House. He favors Slytherins all the time, but he will put you in your place if you mess around in his class. And I don't know much about Professor Scott to be honest. She is fair, sometimes, only sometimes though, she will favor a Slytherin over another house. My father said she seems like a good pure blood woman, like my mum. They are the only two that don't really have a soft spot for that idiot Potter."
She noticed how he said the name. "Don't like him much do you?"
Draco frowned "He thinks he's the best thing that has happened to this bloody school."
Rose frowned as well "Really?"
"He's trouble."
Rose wasn't one to judge people based on what someone had told her. She needed to know for herself. He was her brother after all. But she went along with it.
Jessie glared at Severus as they walked. "I believe those muffins tasted the same!"
he sighed "Well, you needed to eat."
"I can honestly say I don't think anybody has ever said that to me."
"Don't think I haven't noticed that you only eat at dinner."
"Stress gets to some people!" She frowned.
They heard footsteps from behind and they spun around to see a very livid looking Erik, storming down the hall.
He took out his wand to point it at his sister and ignored Severus completely.
"What's wrong with you?" Jessie asked, a little scared about her brother's wand at her neck.
"Jessica Marie Davidson, never in my life have I been so angry with you! How could you do such a thing!"
Severus looked at her.
"Wh- what have I done?" she asked.
"What did she do?" Severus asked, extremely interested, but no worried about the fact Erik had his wand out. He would never hurt his sister.
"I was just in your room and I found something very interesting."
Her heart stopped and all the color in her face had left.
"What did you do?" Severus asked, almost fearful.
"Erik, can we talk about this somewhere else? Please?"
Erik looked at Severus before saying "Jessica found out some information and didn't inform me of it. Then left the evidence in her room."
