Authors Note: Mkay so i know that Snape is kinda out of character in this fic, well at least toward JOHANNA, but i always thought that he wouldnt be so cold and cruel when he found the "ONE". Dont get me wrong i love me some nasty, mean, cold Snape, but in these moments i picture him as the lovey-dovey type:) that doesnt mean he's gonna be a softy ALL the time:) i hope you like the story so far. any comments are still welcome along with questions:)_
"Good practice everyone! We're ready for our game tomorrow for sure!" Harry yelled over the excited voices of the team, we had just had a flawless practice and we were ready for the Slytherins.
"And don't forget get lots of sleep and eat a good dinner and breakfast!" I added once they were quiet. The team all went up to the locker room to change as Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I grabbed all the equipment.
The Great Hall was a buzz with excited whispers about the game that was to come after breakfast. Those students on the Quidditch team were in their uniforms smiling gratefully at the support from their housemates. I took a seat next in between Hermione and Harry. I looked up to the Head Table and saw Severus looking toward his Slytherins with pride. He must have felt me staring at him because he turned toward me and smiled slightly. I couldn't help but smile back. Professor Dumbledore stood and announced that the Quidditch match would begin in thirty minutes. After he sat back down everyone from both teams exited the Great Hall accompanied by loud cheers from those rooting for our victory. The entire team was heading for the direction of the pitch when I realized that I had forgotten my mothers necklace, I hadn't played a game without it.
"Guys I have to back up to my room real quick, I will see you in the locker room." I ran off in the opposite direction. I was almost to the Fat Lady's portrait when I felt pressure on my upper arm and I was pulled behind a piece of tapestry. I tried to scream but a hand was quickly put over my mouth. My heart started to race and my head was swimming with possible exit strategies. That is until my captor spoke.
"I can practically hear your heart beat love." His silky voice had a hint of amusement in it. He removed his hand so that it was no longer covering my mouth. I turned to him, but before I could voice my annoyance he had leaned forward and captured my lips in a kiss. My eyes slid shut. Goodness he could kiss! He pushed me up against the wall and the kiss became deeper. I reached my arms up and wrapped them around his neck. Then it stopped, my eyes snapped open to find smirking Severus Snape. "You scare to easily my love." He might be able to start a moment but he sure knows how to end one as well!
"It's not funny! You scared me half to death!" I crossed my arms in mock anger. He simply looked back at me with a bemused smile. "What was it that you wanted anyway? Or were you just trying to scare me?" His features changed no longer did they hold amusement, they had become more serious. "What's wrong?" His sudden change in emotion had me worried.
"It's nothing, it's actually quit foolish. I just wanted to tell you to be…careful, and…. safe. In the match today. I don't want you to get hurt." I took his hand and looked into his eyes.
"Darling, it's not foolish to worry about me." I smiled. "Quidditch is a dangerous game, I know that. And I know it must be hard to watch me put myself in danger, but I will be fine. This isn't my first time, and besides I know that you won't let anything happen to me." I stood on my toes and gently pressed my lips to his. "I love you."
"I love you, too." He gave me one last kiss, and then he was gone. I waited a few minutes before I followed him. Necklace forgotten I made my way down to the pitch.
