Chapter 2: Scary teacher

After breakfast Severus walked to his classroom thinking of all that had happened since Juliet came. On his way he bumped into Albus. "Good morning, Severus. I am writing a story for a muggle website, and I was wondering, what is your opinion on love?"

"Love? Love isn't real. People who belive in love don't have any idea what they are talking about and are brainless!" Severus said walking past Albus and into his classroom. Albus shrugged and walked off only to bump into Draco. "Mr. Malfoy, what is your opinion on love?"

"I don't love so I shouldn't know. Goodbye." Then Draco walked off. Albus shrugged and walked off. Severus sat down at his desk shaking his head when he heard a knocking on his door. "Enter," he said coldly. Draco walked in and said, 'Hi, Professor."

"And what do I owe to receive this visit, Mr. Malfoy?"

"I wanted to ask a few things about our NEWTS."

"No. Now leave before I give you a detention."

"But, sir…"

"NOW!"

"Goodbye, sir," Draco said leaving. Severus smiled to himself. "Still got the touch," he told himself, "Still got the touch.

Meanwhile Juliet was in her bedroom trying to decide what color lipstick she should wear. She finally decided on not wearing lipstick and just get to her class because she realized she was late. Juliet quickly made her way to the DADA classroom. When she got their, the students were seventh years and talking very loudly. "Everyone be quiet," Juliet said sitting down at her desk. I would like for you to open your books to page 126 and read about Vampires. I would like a three-foot essay on Vampires due tomorrow and in two days we will have a quiz. That shouldn't be too hard for you. If you finish early you may begin your essay and if you manage to finish it before class then you can pass it in to me. Please begin." Everyone took out their books and started to read, but soon they were all whispering, except Hermoine. "Please refrain from talking," Juliet said from her work. She was trying to do the plans for the classes. The group quieted down, but soon got louder.

"Can you believe all the work we are already doing?" Harry whispered to Ron.

"I know. I heard she had to share a living area with Snape so he probably rubbed off some of his evilness on her!" Ron whispered a little too loudly. Suddenly a book slammed loudly on Juliet's desk. "SILENCE!" she yelled angrily. "I will not tolerate talking during my class. Just because I am new does not mean you can get away with things. Your essay will now be five feet long." Everyone groaned. "If I hear a peep out of anyone, I will be handing out detentions with Filch. Now please get to work." From then out everyone was quiet and by the next class almost everyone knew what went down.

Harry, Ron, and Hermoine walked into Potions later that afternoon and Severus happened to overhear their conversation. "Can you believe Professor Romeos gave us a five-foot long essay on Vampires due tomorrow?" Ron complained.

"I know! Dude, she is almost as bad as Snape!" Harry almost yelled.

"Harry, hush! Snape is just over there!" Hermoine hissed.

"Yea, Potter. Wouldn't want to get in trouble with him, now would you?" Draco sneered as he passed by. Hermoine rolled her eyes before saying, "Professor Romeos is probably just having a bad time living with Snape."

"And she is taking it out on us!"

"I bloody well agree!"

"Boys, she is not taking her anger or whatever out on us. Maybe she was always that way…or maybe Snape encouraged her to do it…"

"Hermoine, you're thinking like a mad man!"

"You're right, Harry. Let's just sit down and try to get through Potions without Snape hovering over our every mistake. Agreed?"

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"Good. Now let's sit down." They sat down just as Snape stood up and began the lesson. As they did their potions Snape thought about their conversation and didn't think it made much sense. "Oh, well. I'll figure it out later," he told himself. Hermoine looked up at him when he spoke to himself. When he scowled at her she went back to work. After classes were over for the day Severus decided to skip dinner and eat at the dorm place. As he was eating he saw an angry looking Juliet come in. "What's you're problem?" he asked sarcastically. Juliet glared at him, took an apple from the fridge, and went upstairs. She slammed her door and Severus heard her lock it. "Sorry I asked," he said out loud. After dinner Severus went upstairs, with a tray of food, and knocked on Juliet's door. "What do you want, Severus?" she asked angrily.

"Do you want some dinner?"

"Oh. Um…sure." Then the door opened and Juliet appeared. Her robes were off and she was just wearing jean shorts and a light-pink tank top that revealed her bra straps. Severus stuffed the tray into her hands and tried hard not to look down. The he spun on his heel and left to his room. Juliet shrugged and closed her door. Later that night Severus had just gotten into bed when he heard a crash and a small scream from downstairs. He jumped out of bed and ran into the kitchen. Juliet was standing there with her shirt soaked and on the floor was a broken champagne bottle. Severus smiled at the sight and then frowned when he saw her looking him up and down with a twinkle in her eye.

"I heard you scream and I thought you were in trouble…" Severus trailed off as he noticed what she was looking at. All he was wearing was his boxers because he was in a rush to get downstairs.

"Oh, my god!" Juliet said turning away. Severus ran upstairs and closed his door. He could hear Juliet laughing as she started to clean up the mess. Severus sighed as he got into bed and pulled out a book. The crash had made him wide awake so he decided to read until he got tired. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Severus put on some pants and a shirt and opened the door. Juliet was staring him in the eye, a smile playing on her lips. "Thank you," she said.

"For…" Severus trailed off again, but this time it was because Juliet's lips kissed his. It was a chaste and quick kiss, but it send shivers down his spine and a warm feeling took over his body. When Juliet pulled away Severus went cold and before he could say anything Juliet's door was closing and she was gone. Severus turned back and went into bed. "Aren't I supposed to be a scary teacher?" Severus asked himself before falling asleep. The next morning when Severus came out of his bedroom Juliet's door was open and her room empty. When he went downstairs Juliet wasn't there so he figured she had gotten breakfast at the Great Hall. Severus made himself some breakfast before heading to his office. As he made his way to his office Severus passed the DADA classroom. Inside Juliet was sitting at a student's desk with her back facing him. She had a blank parchment and was drawing something on it. Severus shrugged and went to his office. Very late that night Juliet still hadn't come back and her room lay untouched. Severus was worried, even though it is so unlike him, and decided to look for her. First he looked in the DADA classroom and sure enough Juliet was there. She had fallen asleep at her desk and in front of her was a picture. Severus walked slowly up to her and picked up the picture. It was a picture of a girl riding a beautiful white horse. "Wow," Severus said marveling the picture.

"Do you like it?" said a voice. Severus looked up to see Juliet staring at him.

"Yes. It's beautiful. You're beautiful…I mean…um…"

"Shh. I think you have a beautiful soul," Juliet standing up. She walked around the desk to face Severus. "I think you have beautiful eyes. You are a good person, Severus, and I don't know why people don't like you. I certainly do." Severus smiled and for once in his life he meant it.

End of chapter. Ok I know you are mad. One: I stopped there and two: I stopped there. Please don't kill me! Besides Severus is already going to for not really using his personality in this story. Too bad he has to suck so much...

Severus: Hey! I do not! You are soooo mean. I will wait till you're done writing the story, but wait. Just wait till I get my hands around your scrawny little neck…

Me: Ahhh! -Runs and ducks under couch- Please review. If it's good it might get Severus to not kill me! Thanks and bye! -Loses connection with reader-
