There was a sharp knock on Amelias door, startling her awake. She jumped under the covers, disoriented and confused. Tonks came barreling into the room, not waiting for Amelia to let her in. Amelia was still half asleep and trying to figure out why everything looked unfamiliar, then everything clicked into place. 'Oh yeah... now I remember where I am' She thought.
"Morning Newby!" Tonks said obnoxiously, bending to ruffle Amelias hair. She had slept hard the night before and her hair showed it, half of it matted to the side of her face, the other half sticking straight out. "So, how'd you sleep?" Her cousin giggled eyeing her disheveled state. Tonks' over bubbly mood was crawling under her skin, causing her to grind her teeth in annoyance.
"Mmmmmm" she groaned in response. Amelia was generally an early riser but the emotional rollercoaster and the arguing couple the night prior drained her. She thought about what she had heard during the heated discussion, but decided it was best to not seem like a gossip one night in.
Tonks walked up to the small window and pulled the blinds back, casting everything in blinding light. Dust danced around her smiling face.
Amelia practically curled in on herself, her eyes screwed shut. "MMMMM-NNNOOOOOO" She whined like a child, pulling the covers over her head and burying her face into her pillow.
Tonks rolled her eyes and ripped the blanket off of her. "Get up, Molly's made breakfast." She said as she exited the room.
Amelia laid in fetal position for a solid 5 minutes before she forced her body to move. Every joint cracked and popped. "This bed is a nightmare." She said as she yawned loudly, stretching her arms above her. Begrudgingly, she shuffled her way to the bathroom, then downstairs.
"Maybe I can ask my old neighbor if I can just sleep outside of her place." Amelia mumbled to herself just as the smell of bacon and coffee began to beckon her towards the kitchen. "Or...I can make this work."
Severus entered his lecture hall and started making his way to his office, already hating the world. He grumbled to himself about his empty stash of pepper up potion and about some moronic teenager that can't place a coffee order right.
As he passed his desk to place his disappointing coffee down, he noticed a letter. He stared at it suspiciously. Picking it up he noticed immediately it was from a female, the feminine hand writing on the front giving it away. Personal notes from women made him even more suspicious.
"Please just be a question about homework" he said as he opened it.
Professor,I don't believe we finished our conversation about my grades. I be would like to visit you during office hours? I apologize for not visiting at the correct time yesterday. I will come see you before the day is out.-Elle Harding
Severus swallowed hard, his mouth going dry. He closed his eyes and exhaled deeply. Crunching up the note, he tossed it into the trash bin and began thinking of ways he could get out of work early.
Tonks waved Amelia to sit next to her. She was feeding a tiny baby who's hair was changing from brown to green to blue. They both sat across from Harry and a very displeased looking redhead. Her arms were folded across her chest and she was scowling at a fox shaped pepper shaker.
"Morning Amelia, I apologize I didn't introduce you yesterday to my fiance Ginny." Ginny looked at Amelia and gave her a tight smile, she looked unimpressed and annoyed.
Amelia gave her an awkward "hello" and left it at that, turning her attention to the baby next to her. 'So this was the woman Harry was arguing with' she thought as she played with Teddy's tiny hands.
"Breakfast is ready!" Molly said as she started scooping bacon and eggs into everyone's plate. "Ginny dear, stop growling at the poor pepper shaker and have something to eat. You haven't eaten in two days, I've been watching you young lady"
An extra large helping was put on Ginny's plate. She immediately scoffed at it and pushed the plate away, getting up from the table and storming out. Muttering something about not being hungry as she left.
"What's got her wand in a knot?" Tonks asked Harry.
Harry watched Ginny leave and then looked down at his plate. "I have no idea.. " he said quietly to his food. The tension in the room was suffocating.
No one even made an attempt to start on thier food, the awkwardness hung in the air. Unspoken words floating in the space between them.
Molly began kneading bread while giggling and humming to herself. Blissfully unaware that something was troubling her daughter.
Thankfully the rest of the day was pretty uneventful and Amelia was grateful for it. Breakfast was quiet and awkward but the delicious food and coffee made up for it.
Amelia spent her time unpacking her belongings and getting to know the layout of the house. It was massive and confusing, never seeming to end in some hallways yet stopping abruptly in others. Quite a few areas of the house had suffered the same fate as her bedroom.
It was 4pm as Severus' last class of moronic muggles left. He was utterly spent, looking forward to his noisy apartment, glass of whiskey and his chair. An evening of solitude was what he needed. Lazily he started to wipe away the marker off his white bored and let his mind relax for a moment.
A cleansing spell would make short work of this but he had nothing better to do and honestly, integrating into muggle society made him a bit lazy with his magic. Severus would feel like nothing without it but after the past 20years, a small break wouldn't kill him. Plus it did help his transition into boring, muggle chemistry teacher seamless.
There were some things that he would never stop doing. Like warding his doors. No one was allowed to just walk into his home or office unless they were a witch or wizard. If they did just wander in, he would know they weren't muggles and they would be looking at the wrong end of his wand.
He started to pack away his teaching material into a satchel when his eyes caught it. The off white lined paper crunched into a ball and laying on top of his rubbish bin. Key words like "conversation", "office" and "Elle" could be seen and panic ran through his entire body.
He cast a quick tempus as he shoved everything into his bag haphazardly. 4:20pm. "Shit" He said, knowing his last round of office hours were starting at 4:30. Walking to his office to grab the last of his belongings he began to think about Elle.
'How did she walk into my class yesterday. The door should have been locked...' The panic set in fast. 'Does she know who I am? Was she trying to seduce me for reasons other than grades?'
Just as he turned to leave there was a knock. It was Elle. He could tell from the fuzzy outline through the frosted glass on the lecture hall door.
He whipped it open, shielding half of his body behind it. One hand on the bar handle with the other on his wand tucked securely in his pocket. She looked at him through her over mascaraed eye lashes. Her outfit just as revealing as the day prior. This time a plunging v neck t shirt and shorts that gripped her upper thighs.
His mind flashed to last night, his shameful fantasies running wild. But only for a moment before his paranoia kicked all depravity from his head.
"Miss Harding." Severus said, he was eyeing her cautiously. If he tried to push into her mind now and she was in fact a dark wizard, there would no doubt be a duel and his cover would be blown.
"Professor" She smiled. "May I come in?" Her back arched slightly as she spoke, once again teasing him with her cleavage.
Severus didn't want to interrogate this woman in his classroom doorway. He also had no interest in being alone with her for multiple reasons. However, he needed to know if she was a threat or he wouldn't asleep for the next month.
He nodded stiffly and motioned her through, looking around the hallway before locking the door behind him. She was in his line of vision the whole time, his entire body on edge. Benefits from years of being a spy in constant danger. His fight or flight response activated at the drop of a hat. It did wonders for his nerves.
Turning he said plainly "How did you get into my room yesterday?" His voice was low and suspicious.
Taken aback, she looked at him like he had three heads. "What do you mean? It was unlocked. I knocked but you didn't answer." The truth was she knocked once and didn't wait for an answer, hoping to catch him by surprise.
He then remembered the door was in fact unlocked, he had been waiting for his next class when she walked in. He always unlocked them right before class. All thoughts that this girl wasnt a muggle disappeared from his mind. He decided it was safe to push through and make sure. 'Can never be too careful.'
Her mind was a bit chaotic but she was an intelligent girl, he would give her that. A relativity normal childhood, her pet rabbits and slight plant obsession was what he saw in the first 2 seconds. She had no sign of any magical signatures anywhere. Then he saw why she was here, and what she planned on doing. He felt her nervousness and her arousal at the sight and sound of him. It both confused and intrigued him. Severus left her mind fast.
He cleared his throat and walked past her into his office. He held the door open for her and then locked it. She turned around in the small space and practically had him pinned against the door. The smell of lavender and vanilla invading his senses once again.
"Professor, I am here during office hours now so I was hoping we could pick up where we left off." She said huskily. Her hands slowly went up his chest and she ran a finger down his line of buttons all the way to the top of his dark wash jeans. Her dainty hand rested on the top of his belt buckle before it moved lower.
Severus's brain was at a war with itself. 'Let her do it, you deserve this' one side said. 'You deserve nothing but pain and misery for the rest of your days.' said the other.
As her hands began to palm his growing bulge, his head fell back on his office door with a THUNK.
Once Elle realized he was going to allow her to continue, she went right back to his buckle. Unfastening it and pulling down his zipper with ease. He raised a black brow and looked down at her.
"Done this before?" He said mockingly. She shoved her hand down his pants and into his underwear. He inhaled sharply, her fingers wrapping around him. He was practically pulsating now.
"Never with a teacher." She grinned cheekily.
Severus grabbed both sides off her face and brought his lips to hers, moaning at the contact. He forcefully pushed his tongue in massaging hers skillfully. She wrapped her arms around his neck as his hands went to her breasts, squeezing hard.
Suddenly aware this was a student he pulled back. "How old are you?" He knew she was of age, but he didn't want to fuck someone who was just old enough to drink.
"24" She says confidently, pulling him down again and sucking his tongue in hungrily.
'Fair enough' he thought as his hands went to the hem of her shirt and pulled it off. He began to fumble with the back of her bra as they worked their way to his desk. Never breaking contact she sat in the edge and began working on his buttons.
Reluctantly he pulled his mouth away once again, clearly becoming irritated. "Where is the bloody clasp!?"
Elle giggled and unclasped the front of her bra, letting it fall off. Her breasts weren't as big as they looked with the bra on, much to his disappointment but they were a nice handful and he wasn't going to start complaining now. He greedily sucked one into his mouth and Elle moaned, wrapping her legs around his waist and pulling him on top of her.
