Ch 4. Changes
Nearly a month passed since Snape witnessed the events at the club that
night. He silently wondered if she was some sort of a weather witch of
sorts. There was so
much about her he didn't know. That's why he still followed her sometimes.
But, since that night he decided he wouldn't be as hard on Aurelia, of
course that didn't mean
he was going soft on her. Heavens no, he thought. He was still as rude
as ever and could still be a pain in the arse at times. But he really would
listen to her when she
had something important to say about the house.
Aurelia noticed something change in his attitude towards her. He wasn't AS cold as he could be at times. She wondered if she was just imagining things or what.
When they would pass by each other in the hallway he would be courteous to her somewhat. He would open doors for her and let her walk in first and would even listen to her occasionally. But she decided it best not ask about it.
In two weekends was the Halloween dance. The students
were all excited and she couldn't help but be a little excited as well.
This weekend she was planning to go
out again to Mantra's and would try to keep herself under control.
Sometimes she could swear she was being watched or something but she could
never see anyone
except the usual men who always stared.
Snape decided to follow her again this weekend. He dared to think it
somewhat the highlight of his weekends.
*You really need to get out more Severus....* he thought.
Mantra's was as usual. This time Aurelia knew she felt eyes on her.
Not just the normal pairs but a stronger presence. She danced around trying
to look like she was
just having fun, but she was really scanning the room. She spun around
and that's when she saw him. She quickly hid her shock and continued to
dance.
Snape was following her.
But why? How long has he been doing this? Has it been every time I felt those eyes? What does he want with me? I have to confront him.....no.
Aurelia had a better idea. A MUCH better idea. She smiled and just continued
to dance. Slowly the beat turned and she began to dance more suggestively.
She pulled a
muggle away from some girl and forced him to look at her as she moved.
He looked like he got caught up in a trance and began to move with her.
She slowly danced
her dance of seduction, all the while making sure she was in his view.
Snape was in shock. She was practically begging that muggle to touch
her...while making him beg for more.....Something in the way she moved
struck Snape. It was a
feeling he hadn't felt in a long time. This is not what he needed.
He willed himself to get up and leave but he was glued to the spot. He
couldn't take his eyes off her. The
way her hips shook and the way her body bent letting her hair droop
over her shoulders. He almost forgot how long it was. She always kept it
up at school. He saw her lean over and he could see just a bit of.....
He smacked his brain and forced himself out of the chair. He left the
club instantly heading back to Hogwarts, cursing himself the whole way
there.
Aurelia smirked. That was fun.
The next day Snape sat in his classroom trying to keep his mind focused
on the lesson at hand, but he found his thoughts drifting. Drifting towards
a girl's beautiful face with long black hair. Finally he gave up and just
gave out a reading a assignment and dismissed the class early.
* I am NOT attracted to her. I am NOT.*
yes you are.... something whispered inside his mind.
*No, Im not. Okay, so what if I am? She doesnt like me anyway, I've
made sure of that.*
He sighed audibly and began to collect himself for his next class.
