Chapter 2: The Cookie of Confession
Turning away from the roses, Michiru began getting ready for the day. Still, the thought of Professor Snape secretly giving her roses made her heart race. "Beautiful roses!" came Tora's sleepy voice. Michiru blushed, "They grew from that stuff Professor Snape gave me." Tora nearly stumbled over her feet as she got out of bed. "Are you serious? Wow…" a grin became prominent on her face, "Seems like he has a secret as well." "…Maybe…" Michiru glanced over at the roses.
It was early, very unlike Michiru to be about and about. She was unsure why, but she felt like she had to see Severus. Upon walking into the classroom, she spotted Draco Malfoy talking with Snape. The sound of her shoes caught their attention. Draco looked annoyed. Snape motioned for the boy to leave. "But sir-!" Draco went on. "I said go. Mr. Malfoy," Snape replied, his voice stern. The blonde-haired boy sucked his teeth and stormed towards the door, passing a glare at Michiru. "Uh- was I interrupting something?" she asked, feeling like a third wheel. Snape laced his fingers in front of him and slowly walked up to the girl. "Mr. Malfoy believes I'll let him slide from trouble just because I am head of the Slytherin House…I caught him stealing the answer key to today's test." Michiru shook her head in disappointment, and with a little smirk, she replied, "Heh, even I don't stoop that low and I'm failing." The corner of Snape's mouth perked up as he remembered a little tidbit, "Hm. I thought you weren't a morning person." Michiru chuckled, "Oh, right! Ah, I just happened to wake up early…Oh, and I came to tell you that the experiment you gave me was a success! The roses are beautiful." "Good. Hopefully you'll improve."
Michiru scratched behind her ear, unsure of what to do next. "Say…I was going to go get some breakfast. Care to accompany me?" Snape kind of half shrugs and says, "Hm. Alright." The two walked peacefully together, exchanging a few words.
In the Great Hall, Michiru had herself two glazed doughnuts and tiny sausages, while Professor Snape simply had toast. "You know, it's nice to be able to hang out like this," said Michiru. Snape took a moment to bite his toast before replying, "I suppose." Snape glanced down at the girl's plate and gracefully snatched one of the sausages. "Ah!" Michiru's mouth went agape. As Severus smirked, Michiru couldn't help but crack a smile. "Smooth, Professor…Real smooth," she chuckled. Now for the payback! She reached over and tried to break off a piece of Snape's bread, but he caught her hand. "Too slow," he commented. Michiru's heart was beginning to beat faster on account of feeling Snape's hand in hers. He let go, making Michiru wanting to be held by him.
The bell rang for first period to start; Michiru groaned. She'd rather stay with Severus than go to Herbology. Finishing up the rest of her doughnut, she said, "I better get going…I'll see you later, sir." "Hm. Have a good morning, Miss Ayawa."
Potions class didn't go to well, or the test at least. Poor Michiru was at a loss when she saw the questions. Oh well, that's what the tutoring is for. At the end of class, Sarah went up to Professor Snape with a smile. "Here!" she said cheerfully, handing him a chocolate chip cookie. Snape scowled, "What is this?"
"A cookie."
"…I see…" he said, examining it as if it was some foreign object. "What's in this?"
"Love."
Snape half rolled his eyes, "What's it for? Planning to put some sort of spell on me?"
"Oooohh! He's good!" thought Sarah. "Ahem, nooo…Just showing my appreciation; I think you're a cool teacher."
"Riiight," Snape placed the cookie on a napkin and left it there.
"What's she up to?" Michiru asked Tora, while pointing to the girl in question. Tora shrugged, "I don't think we want to know." As the girls walked out of the room, Sarah leans in and whispers, "You'll discover the truth when you go to 'tu-to-ring'." "I wish you'd stop making suggestive statements!"
The last class of the day was a bit slow for Snape, but at least it's over. He flipped through a few pages of work that the students had turned in yesterday. Too busy to realize what he was doing. Snape took a bite of the cookie that was given to him. Although he didn't care for sweet things, it tasted quite good. "Afternoon, Professor Snape!" Michiru's voice echoed. Snape glanced up and saw the familiar girl walk in with her books. At that moment, he started to feel…strange. He suddenly seemed more aware of his surroundings, and something about Michiru, kept his eyes on her. "So," Michiru huffed, "What's on the agenda?" "…Ayawa…" said Snape, clenching his fists. Oh no! He felt himself ready to spill out his darkest secrets! "What was in that damn cookie?" "Michiru…I-" he rose from his chair. "Sir, are you alright?" Snape advanced upon her, backing her into a wall.
"I have to tell you something…" Michiru felt her face turning red. "…I can't stop myself," thought Snape. His brain began rushing around in panic, and irrepressible feeling took over him. His hand went up to her cheek. Michiru wanted to say something but was at a loss for words.
Before either of them could figure out what was going on, Snape had his lips pressed against Michiru's. Her heart pounded in her chest. Was this a dream; an illusion? No, it was real, but why? Not that Michiru was one to complain, but this seemed too good to be true…and a bit random. She surrendered herself and began to kiss him back. Surprisingly, she found his lips to be quite soft, compared to his icy demeanor.
Suddenly, Snape regained control of himself. He pushed away from the girl so quickly, that he startled her. He placed a hand to his head to gather his thoughts. "Leave," he whispered coldly. "But Professor…uh…just now," she was nervous; what could one do in a situation like this? "I…I lo-" "MICHIRU!!" he shouted. Michiru stood shocked. Snape lowered his voice, "Get out."
Michiru ran out of the class room, already feeling her heart break.
