Ch.2 – Flaming Red of His Heart
~Claire's P.O.V:~
I walked around the muggle world, looking for one house in particular. It felt weird wearing what these muggles call stilettos when I prefer death traps. My waist length red hair swayed against my back. I passed a house that looked like the other homes, and immediately I turned back to the house and took a deep breath before knocking on the door and I clutched at the present wrapped in black paper. I waited a few seconds until a man with black eyes opened the door and wasn't ashamed that I caught him staring at my body, looking me up and down, as if he was trying to remember me from somewhere. I was also guilty, I looked at him to see him smirk and I felt my will for giving him the present faded. I handed him the present and I ran off, leaving him with his gift.
~Snape's P.O.V:~
I was reading the paper when I heard someone knock on my door. I folded the paper, walked to the front door and opened it to see a beautiful young woman stand before me with red hair, sea blue eyes and a stunning figure that was enhanced with a white dress that left me wondering if she really was there. I noticed that she was curious with her eyes. I smirked which somehow led to her giving me a wrapped present and she ran off, I opened the present to see a copy of "Becoming a Potions Master for Dummies". Is this the reason why she ran off, she didn't want to feel my possible wrath? I smirked as I set my gift down, there were some possible reasons why she gave me a book that had "for dummies": 1) she's cheap, 2) she didn't know what else to get me, or both. I locked the front door, she'll be back within the hour. Although, I pondered why I feel bad for making her run off like that and why did she seem so familiar? She seems so innocent, almost like a lamb. Her eyes seemed so sad that I didn't remember her. A half hour later, I heard a young woman sing remarkably.

After I ran to the park that was close by, I took the heels off and sat on a bench and began to sing Paramore's Decode by heart. A few minutes into the song, I jumped when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I spun around and saw Snape. I was nervous and gulped and turned myself around. I didn't want to look at him. "The book wasn't cheap since I got it from the author because it was never really published to the public for unknown reasons, and I didn't know what else to get you." I explained to him. After all that was over, he walked me back to his house and I "forgot" the heels with a Cheshire smile on my face.
