Disclaimer: I owned none of the characters (JKR owned them), except for a
few of them which is created by me.
Tell you what? I am really proud of myself that I could finish this chapter. Again, Severus was a bit 'too' not like himself again... (I still have no idea why I have ended him up like that) And I couldn't believe that I could write something so 'touching' and 'sweet' to the extent that one of my friends said she was about to vomit, and one said "it was like adding sugar to a sugarpuff'", and she could stand it no more... A bit exaggerating... but I have to agree with them... Oh God... should I continue with the story...
Please read and review.
Never had a dream come true
Chapter 12 A new start
************************
At the Gryffidor table
************************
"Harry, is Eve alright?"
"I don't know. It's taking so long... and she doesn't look good at all, she is paler every second."
"I think Dumbledore is getting worried too. See, Remus was talking to him."
*************************
At the teachers' table
*************************
"Headmaster, is Eve alright? Minerva was getting worrried, she said she was paler every second."
"Maybe the hat is saying to her about something she was afraid of." Dumbledore shot a look at Severus, "The most worried one is over there though."
Remus looked at the direction Dumbledore was pointing at, it was Severus. He gave a knowing smile. "Got it."
Severus was getting worried after he saw her put on the hat, although he couldn't see her face, but he could see she started shivering again, and she held her hands together so hard that she was hurting herself again. What did the hat say to her, to make her so tense again? He just hoped she will be alright.
It was like a life time. Then the hat finally shouted out, "SLYTHERIN!!!" Everyone was relieved, but Severus. He was happy she was sorted into Slytherin, but he knew something was not right with her. He had already stood up and started walking towards her. When Minerva was pulling the hat off her, he was sure he was right. She fell off the stool and rolled down the steps of the stage.
Everyone panicked, not knowing the reason of her collapse. Severus rushed to her side before McGonagall, and hold her in his arms.
"Eve, can you hear me?" He patted her face. "Eve?" She didn't reply. She had actually passed out.
"Headmaster, I am taking her down to infirmary now. She had blacked out." With that, he carried her in his arms, left the hall and headed for the infirmary.
"Minerva, Remus, go with him. I'll be there soon." Dumbledore said to them. Minerva and Remus left the hall, and Dumbledore started his annual announcement for new school year.
Harry caught hold of Remus on his way out, and asked, "Is she going to be alright?"
"I don't know Harry, but surely, there is something really interesting happening between the two of them." And he then left with Minerva.
"Harry, what did Moony said? How's Eve?"
"He said something intersting is happening between those two..."
"Oh my God... Does he mean... Eve and Snape?" Hermione asked.
Ron finally got what they were implying. "Snape? In love? No way! I'll eat the table if it were."
"Well, I think you have to practise how to eat this table then. There is DEFINITELY something there." Harry stated.
"Have you ever seen Snape with a worried face like that? Look over to the Slytherin table, all the Slytherins are shocked by Snape's behaviour. Especially for Malfoy, he was taking this like when you knew him and Ginny were together." Hermione said, pointing at the Slytherin table."I will pray for you that you won't die of indigestion for eating the table."
Ginny was giggling at this, and Ron made a threat, "Ginny, don't you dare tell Malfoy about it!"
**************
Severus was literally running through the corridors to the infirmary, carrying her in his arms. What the hell had the hat said to her, which made her collapse like that? Soon, they arrived in the infirmary, and gave Poppy quite a shock. He wanted to stay and make sure she was alright, but Poppy insisted him waiting outside. While he was outside, Remus and McGonagal arrived.
"How is she?" asked McGonagall.
"I don't know, Poppy didn't let me stay inside to wait. What the hell had that HAT said to her!!!"
McGonagall and Remus were shocked by his words and tone, but they had started to notice his worry for Eve was more than that from a friend, and they were happy to see that, as Dumbledore had hinted to Remus.
"Severus, calm down."
"No... I need to go get that hat and know what it had done to her." Severus was about to leave for the hall again, Remus pulled him back, "You can't get anything from the hat. It won't tell you anything."
"I MUST KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER, EVEN IF I HAVE TO RIP THAT HAT APART!!!"
"Severus, calm down. She needs you to be here with her."
"Severus, I don't want to see you in Azkaban for killing the sorting hat." There came the weak voice of Eve. Severus was calmed down finally, and looked into the opened door of infirmary.
Poppy stood by the door, "You can go in now. She is alright, just not enough sleep, haven't eaten all day and too much shock. I'll be back later with some food for you both."
Severus went into the infirmary, and Poppy closed the door for him.
"I have never seen him like that before." Poppy, who looked calm, was actually quite surprised by his reaction.
McGonagall and Remus just smiled, keeping the secret to themselves, and Dumbledore arrived just in time.
"How is she?"
"Fine. Just not enough sleep, haven't eaten all day, and too much shock. She will be alright with a good night sleep, and some food."
"How's Severus?"
"You should have seen it yourself. He was totally mad. Just like the way Eve reacted, when he saved her from the fall from her broom. He was so mad with the hat that he wanted to rip it apart!" Remus laughed.
"I heard that from inside the infirmary too, while the young lady started to recover. And he was immediately calmed down by the lady's one sentence."
Dumbledore chuckled. "I hope he'd be in love."
******************
Severus was inside the infirmary, and walking towards the bed behind the screen. She still looked pale, but she was awake now. He took the seat next to he bed, and he took her hand in his.
"Sorry, I freaked you off."
"No, as long as you are alright."
Eve was once again looking into his eyes. She had been thinking about what the hat had said.[It would kill him if he ever made you sad.] [Severus likes you just the way you are.] She knew she was drawn to him. She would risk it the first time in her life to ask him, "Severus."
"Yes?"
"Em... Would you ever hurt me?"
Severus was shocked with her question. "No. I will never hurt you. It will kill me if I ever make you sad. What's wrong?"
"Do you like me?"
"Of course. I think... I am falling in love with you." His face was now totally red. "How about you?"
"I can't say whether I love you," and Severus was a bit disappointed by this, "but I know I am drawn towards you, no matter how I resisit it. Yes, I think I love you."
Severus was overjoyed by this, and planted a soft kiss on her lips. "Tell me, what had the hat said to you? How come you collapsed after the sorting?"
"It's a long story... about my past. I will tell you about it, as you have already told me about yours. It's just that I don't think I have enough energy to tell you about it now." Then she yawned.
"You need to rest. We will have a busy day tomorrow. Sleep tight, Eve." He gave her another kiss on her forehead.
"Good night. Severus."
