Warnings: teacher/ student moments.
Author Note: I like the way this one turned out. I also think you should know that the chapters in this story are very short and it's meant to be that way because of the POV changes. Please be patient and don't say I didn't warn you.

2: Harry
Professor Severus Snape, potions master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, read that letter three times. Harry Potter was hopeless. Severus had been his teacher for going on seven years. The handwriting was undoubtedly his. Standing from the chair he had been occupying, Severus went to find the Gryffindor.
An hour later, Severus walked towards the Great Hall for dinner defeated. He still hadn't found Harry. Hopefully he would come to dinner and they could talk. Severus took his customary seat and watched the doors.
3: Watching
Harry Potter felt like he was being watched, which of course was nothing new, but this time it felt different. Taking a seat across from Ron and Hermione, his two best friends, Harry still felt like he was being watched. Harry looked all over and most of the students seemed to be too busy eating or talking. With a heavy, yet hopeful heart, he turned his glance to the staff table. Most of the professors were chatting with one another as they ate. Harry's eyes slowly slid down the table.
When Harry got to Professor Snape, he gasped, beautiful black eyes met his own. The most unexpected thing ever, Snape winked at him, then went back to his meal.
4: Potter!
The gorgeous blush that crept into Harry's cheeks when Severus winked was enough to persuade the usually stoic man forward with his plans. As everyone was finishing up, Severus stood and headed straight for Harry. The Gryffindors looked apprehensive as he approached.
"Potter!" Severus said. Harry slowly turned in his seat to look at him. "If you are finished, I'd like a word with you."
Harry's nod was the only indication that he even heard Severus speak. The younger man stood and waited as though to follow Severus out.
