Chapter 4
.. Meredith was completely shocked by Severus' kiss. It caught her off guard, but she wasn't in anyway disgusted by it. Little did any of her friends know she had been secretly harboring a crush on the Slytherin boy for more than a year now. She found his knowledge of potions to be stimulating and his look to be alluring. She never thought in a million years that he would have the same yearning for her. She overcame her shock quickly and parted her lips slightly, allowing Severus' tongue access to her own.
To Severus' extreme surprise and pleasure, Meredith didn't seem at all repulsed by him and he was overjoyed when she drew him deeper into the kiss.
Through silent communication, each others intentions were realized. They started to disrobe one another and shyly explore each other's bodies.
"Oh Severus", moaned Meredith as he gently brought them both down to the cold, hard concrete floor of the locker room.
That was the last coherent thing Snape heard before their all consuming passion took over.
And thus it began that fateful night in the locker room. There was not just passion between the two, but an open caring and honesty for each other. It was great sex, but also wonderful discussion that would often start at night and continue until early daybreak.
Throughout their fourth year the two lovers would meet in hidden passages when they could get away from their friends unnoticed. The summer that followed was filled with owls full of yearning for the other.
It was decided that night in the locker room that they would have to keep their relationship a secret. For if either's friends would have found out, it would result in them being ostracized. In Severus' case, an unhealthy beating would probably be included.
Their relationship thrived for two more years; however Meredith had a more ingenious way for them to meet up. Borrowing James' invisibility cloak on the pretense of 'wanting to gaze at the stars late at night in the astronomy tower (she had convincingly conned her friends into thinking she was really into Astronomy all of a sudden), she would sneak down to the Slytherin common room entrance. Severus would wait outside until she came and let them both inside and up to his bed. Once there he would put an Imperturbable charm around his bed sealing in all sound and allowing no one entrance. This did result in a few close calls sometimes though. Once Severus had led Meredith to his dorm room one night while talking to her. He didn't see Lucius and Thorn making out on Lucius' bed.
".so I'm afraid that we will be caught one of these days and."
"Severus", Lucius interrupted as Thorn rolled her eyes, "who in the Hell are you talking to?"
"Um.myself"
"Well then, who's we and get caught at doing what?" Lucius said with a raise of his eyebrows and an amused smile playing at his lips. A smile that never quite reached his eyes.
"Well.I mean us torturing the Gryffindors-we've had so many close calls lately. I just don't want us getting expelled."
This was not far from the truth. Last week Thorn had had been caught by Professor Dumbledore cursing Lily (Evans). Her punishment had been detention for two weeks and a letter sent home to her parents. Her parents were actually quite proud of her, but the detention was horrible. She had to work with caretaker Glynn and do the most disgusting of chores like emptying bedpans in the hospital wing and cleaning the toilets with an old toothbrush.
Lucius seemed to accept this answer. "Don't worry. We won't get expelled"
He took Thorn by the hand and dragged her toward the door.
"Hey Sev", Thorn called out; "you might want to stop talking to yourself. People might start to think that you are weirder than you already are." She and Lucius laughed their way out the door.
Another close call was a few months after that incident. Lily had gotten into yet another argument with James and was upset by it. She went to look for Meredith in the Astronomy tower so they could talk it out. Lily called out Meredith's name loudly for a good twenty minutes before giving up and going back to bed. In the morning Lily questioned her about it. Meredith had come up with a lame excuse about not being able to sleep and instead taking a walk around the grounds. This absurd excuse was accepted as well.
Severus and Meredith were able to keep their relationship at bay until late in their sixth year. Each still publicly besmirching the other and their friends and privately enjoying each others company.
All was well until a warm May night of their sixth year. Professor Clagg, head of Slytherin, received an urgent owl from Severus' father, Tyrus, late one night. One of Ursula Snape's spells had horribly backfired on her and Severus was to come to St. Mungo's immediately to see his mother.
Professor Clagg immediately rushed upstairs to the boys' bed. Upon failing to open the bed curtains, he muttered "ouvrete" lifting the imperturbable charm. An overwhelming surprise hit him when he opened the curtains. Lying naked on top of the bed clothes was Severus with his arm draped over the breasts of an equally naked Meredith, both sound asleep. "Enervate", whispered Professor Clagg and the pair awoke with a start.
In their hurry to cover themselves, they listened to Professor Clagg's whispered rant.
".and a Gryffindor no less! Have you no pride my buy? I never want to see your face around this dormitory or around this Slytherin again young lady. For if I do, I will make sure that everyone that you are trying to keep this secret from finds out. Make no mistake about it I am dead serious." He threw the letter from Tyrus on the bed and stalked out of the room.
After a quick and quiet discussion Severus and Meredith decided that considering all the close calls that they have had, it would be in their best interest not to see each other anymore.
It was unfathomable to Lily as to why her best friend would often cry herself asleep and confusing to the rest of her friends that Meredith had suddenly lost her interest in Astronomy.
Lucius on the other hand took great pleasure in Severus' newfound, inexplicable bitterness in everything.
As the seventh year for both sides approached, it seemed clearer to Meredith that it had been a good idea to discontinue Sev's and her relationship. For Lucius and Severus' entire group followed in the footsteps of their parents and as soon as they turned of age, they all joined Voldemort's crusade for pureblooded domination. As Voldemort drove fear into the hearts of many, so did his numerous deatheaters including Meredith's old love.
*****back to the present*****
"Yes", Snape replied,"I turned spy before Voldemorts downfall to baby Harry and I have been working for the order ever since." He paused thoughtfully, "We have a lot ot catch up on if you have the time."
"No, I have to get my affairs in order. Besides I'd prefer to leave the past where it belongs-in the past", Meredith responded coldly before walking away and leaving a dumbfounded Snape on the stoop gaping after her.
Whew! End of chapter 4 and an incredibly long flashback, but then again anything long that has to do with Snape is a good thing! Oops, just realized the double entendre, hee hee, silly me. Thanks again to Thorn and to down right mystic for reviewing. I welcome all reviews. I love reviews. I thrive on reviews. LOL-see you in the next chapter.
