Disclaimer: I don't own any HP character, but I would be happy with Snape :)
Chapter One:
"I am sorry Mr. Snape but you only got a month."
Severus closed his eyes, this couldn't be happening, not to him. A month, just a month and everything will be over. He shocked his head in disbelieve, this was too much even for a man who life has been an eternal hell.
"I understand" was all he could manage to say. But the true was he didn't quite understand anything at all. Why? How? They must be kidding… He took his cloak and went out, the doctor said something else but Severus didn't care; there was nothing else he could care about anymore.
He arrived late to the Order meeting that night. Nobody seems to care though, he took his usual seat far from everybody else and said nothing. Sirius was the only one to notice something was wrong with Snape. Maybe cause he didn't insult him when they met or maybe cause he knew him so well that his silent said it all.
The meeting finished and Severus was about to leave when Sirius stepped in front of him.
"What's wrong with you Snivellius? Your Lord ordered you to take a shower?" said the animagus trying to start a fight if Snivellius was up to something he was going to find out.
But Severus didn't replies not even the Snivellius insult could make sense to his senseless life today.
"That was odd" said Sirius to himself once Severus has left. "He always fights back, something wrong is going on here, and I will find out".
It was a nice evening so Severus decided to walk a little, he never used to do that but then not everyday you find out there's not many days left for you. He walked without caring; all he could think about was his life. Everything he has done and missed, the people he has hated the most (Black on the top of course, followed closely by Voldy, Potters next), the people he won't meet (a wife, some sons and daughter maybe?) and the people that won't miss him at all (let's say everybody).
The student will be happy that their potion master won't make their life hell anymore; he smiled sadly at the sight of Neville laughing at his grave. The Death Eaters will be disappointed, cause many of them are just waiting for Voldemor's order to kill him. Well that cheered him up a little, Voldy will be really angry to know he won't be the one to finish him.
Albus of course won't be happy, he was a good friend actually his only friend but somehow that wasn't good enough for Severus, a friend, only one, that was all he got?. He knew nobody will miss him and that makes him miserably. "Maybe a month will be enough to make them miss me" something hit him the moment those words came out of his mouth, he still got a month to change everything! He still could make those bastards to miss and even like him. Severus grimed, that's was a good idea…
Next morning Severus woke up happily, he was about to start a new life, a short but new one. He took his cloths and shocked his head, no black wasn't good for him anymore. Yellow? Not too shinny, red? No too bloody, um… Blue, a navy blue will make a good impression, he could try another happier colour later, let's start with blue. He transfigured his trousers into jeans, yes muggles jean could make the trick. And put on a navy blue t-shirt. He looked at himself in the mirror, wow he looked different, definitely better.
Now my hair… um… tricky… but he knew exactly what to do, it's been a while since he wanted to do something different with his hair, just that the change didn't fit his old reputation. A couple of flicks of his wand later and "wow that's amazing!" Said the mirror to a griming short hair Severus.
"Well that's like ten years younger. Why didn't I do this before?"
At the Grand Hall everybody was having breakfast happily, students and professors talking and eating innocently, none ready for what was coming. Severus entered and sat next to Albus. "Good morning Albus" said him with a charming smile. Albus turned and frozen, the sight of his ex-bitter master potion using jeans and t-shirt, short hair and charming smile nearly gave him a heart attack. McGonagall spitted out her cereal, Flick fell down and Hagry almost sat on him. Hundreds of mouths fell open and Severus couldn't hold a smile. "Mission accomplished".
Wow the girls were dreaming or what? That was definitely not their potions professor, maybe his young brother? He was so so dam sexy…
"Well I guess I should go to my class, Griffidor/Slytherin, my favourite one" said him getting out of the Hall. Astonished faces followed his way out. "Tell me I was dreaming" said Hermione to Ginny, but Ginny didn't reply navy blue t-shirt and jeans were too much for her to react.
"If I am dreaming please don't wake me up" was all the girls could think about…
"I thought I'll never say this but I can't wait till my next potions class"…
