Of Finding You

Sitting on the edge of your bed, you frustratedly bandaged your left hand. Stinging from alcohol you poured on the wound, you huffed to yourself. After your last class of the day, you were putting away the antique blades that the students had used in practising enchanting objects. Perhaps it was your sleep deprivation, or maybe your head was off with the fairies—but you ended up cutting your palm whilst grabbing multiple at once. You swore at yourself many times, but you were only human. Now, sat in your solitaire room you struggled to bandage the wound with your other hand.

The usual amber glow of the few lit candles adorning the walls of the dungeon quarters accompanied you. That was until an equally frustrated Severus entered your living quarters. He often did so nowadays, after you gave him a key for ‘emergencies’, yet he used it instead to let himself in, that silly man. Though you secretly did not mind, you appreciated his company.

With a loud huff he dragged his hands through his raven hair, a certain brooding aura accompanying him whilst he sat slightly aggressively on your couch.

“Bad day?” You asked without looking up from your task. Hearing your voice come from your room, he leaned his head against the back of the couch, turning it to peer at you. The usual tug at his heart never left him each time he saw you, however that quickly turned to panic as he noticed blood trailed and smudged on both of your hands.

Swiftly standing up, he moved towards you in just a few strides.

“Y/n, Are you okay? How did this happen? Did someone do this to you?” He asked in a slurry of questions, fear, and slight notes of anger evident in his tone, rushing to hover right in front and over you, he brought your hands in his, his face ridden with concern as that typical crease in between his brows returned.

“Sev, no, no. It was just an accident. I stupidly grabbed a tool by the blade in a bunch and cut my hand is all… But I could use your help in bandaging it.” You looked reassuringly up at him.

As he moved to sit down beside you on the end of your bed, he whispered a cleaning charm as the blood trailed down your hands disappeared. Muttering to himself, still obviously worried—he began to wrap your hand properly.

“You’re sure you’re okay?” He asked again, ever so tentative as he peered, still concerned, and held a hand to your face once he finished bandaging the wound.

“Yes, yes. Thank you, Sev.” You warmly thanked him, earning a kiss on your forehead.

Now leaning against the man, leeching from some of his heat, he huffed once more.

“You seem tense, Sev. Did you have a bad day?” You looked up to him, deciding to take his hand endearingly in yours.

Once again sighing, he replied “Mhmm. Nothing but messy mistakes and bratty children interrupting me all day.” He decided to lay down fully on your bed in surrender to his day.

Smiling a little at his movement, you decided to join him as the two of you lay on top of your comfortable bed. Resting your head on his chest, your locks splayed beautifully across his robes. Intertwining your fingers in his once more, you listened to his heart.

“I’m sorry the day treated you poorly, Sev.” You whispered. The warm and dim lighting settling around the two of you.

Getting an idea, you moved to rest your head next to his, your hand now taking its place on his chest.

He turned to face you, “It’s better now I’m with you.” He muttered under his breath, the warmth of his ravishing voice bringing you chills.

Grinning, the apples of your cheeks blushed, and whilst seeing that delightful view—Severus immediately went to rest his hand on your neck. Moving closer to you now, he took your lips to his. The soft movements feeling just right. His presence was just what you needed, as was yours to him.

Instead of breaking the kiss, you both continued. Becoming more passionate as the two of you began to breathe quicker and more intensely. You pushed aside a few stray hairs of his from his gorgeous face, holding him close as you both peered into each other’s eyes whilst you caught your breaths. Searching for reassurance in your eyes, Severus found just what he was looking for as he dived back into an even more enchanting kiss. Now a make-out session, he pulled you closer, and closer. He needed you, now more than ever. Moving to sit up with him, he held you by your waist as he hoisted you up gently, so you rested against your pillows at the head of the bed. Sitting atop of you, his large hands wandered with a snake-like touch. Making their way down from your face to your jaw, your neck, your collarbone, and eventually made their way to unbutton the first few buttons at the top of your blouse, now revealing the lacy top of your bra. Gracing spotted and loving kisses along the track of his hands, they followed down to your cleavage. His movements and touch doing wonders to you, causing soft gasps and faint moans to leave your lips as the both of you became increasingly entangled and warm.

Returning to your lips, and finally parting, he looked back into your eyes.

“Do you want to go further, y/n?” The man whispered so tenderly with his engorged pupils staring into yours.

Breathing deeply, you moved up towards him as to take his lips into yours once more.

“Yes. I want nothing more, Sev.” You replied in a whisper between your passionate kisses.

Both now moving to tear each other’s clothes off in a hurry, you had both never wanted anything so much and so fervently.

Both rosy-cheeked, you blushed so intensely when his eyes glanced over your now exposed breasts. Something primal in him arose upon the interaction, moving swiftly to kiss you all over, touching you all over, in just the right places. Huffed moans and gasps escaped the both of you. He had always thought you were stunningly beautiful, but now, under his clutch, completely exposed, you were ethereal and so sensually attractive to him. He needed you. And you needed him.

You whispered soft ‘Sev’s as he replied with your name in hot, breathy sighs.

Tearing his last layer off, you lusted for the bear skin that greeted you. His brooding and wide shoulders above you as he moved slowly down. Placing intricate kisses along your breasts, down to your abdomen, your navel, and eventually he greeted your lower region. His large, arched nose tickling your entrance as he worked wonders. Glancing up at you lovingly, you squirmed under his touch once more. Merlin, he knew what to do.

Moving back up to leave soft hickeys on your neck and breasts, his eyes met yours once more as his hands now found their way around and into your entrance. Becoming sensitive, and perfectly aroused, you arched your back slightly as the familiar introductory waves of an orgasm crept up. Clawing his back, he hissed slightly at the feeling.

Edging you on perfectly, he gave you one more tender, loving kiss to ask for reassurance. Returning it with your hands now placed on his chest and one around his neck. You nodded once more.

As his hands left your entrance, he brought his tip to your entrance, and with a guttural groan, he entered slowly. His length filling you up as he hit just the right spot. You adjusted your position slightly as to subside the slight pain caused by his sheer size. Moaning once more, your breathing quickened with each thrust. Starting off slow, he then began to pick up his pace. The look of concentration on his face so attractive as his skin became slightly clammy.

Now spreading your legs slightly as he reached deeper and deeper. You knew you would not last long. He too was reaching a peak quickly. That feeling of orgasmic bliss creeping up in your stomach as he thrusted into you causing you to grip tighter into him. He reached for the headboard, gripping tightly with white knuckles. Rapid breaths and whimpers leaving your mouths.

“Sev…” You looked up. “I’m so close.”

Hearing your voice utter those words truly did it to him, reaching the creeping destination of your climaxes, his pace began to falter as you squinted your eyes closed with a moan.

The waves of the orgasmic high overcoming you, your legs began to tremble slightly as he came inside of you.

Both in a state of exhausted bliss, heaving as to recuperate and gain air. He came down from his high, as did you. Slowly removing himself from your entrance, you winced softly from the absence of his length. Once separated, he collapsed next to you. Eyes and mouth agape as he ran his hand through his hair once more. You grabbed the sheet next to you and draped it over the both of you. Chuckling in amazement, you turned to him and rested your head on his shoulder as the two of you leant on your pillows. Kissing his bare shoulder, you couldn’t help but look so lovingly towards the man next to you.

Both laying in pure delight, you whispered “I love you, Sev.” Whilst looking at him to gage his reaction.

Immediately, his eyes steadied as he turned to you, mouth still in awe.

He couldn’t have moved faster to hold you in his arms again, kissing you with such euphoria as a smile of pure elation graced his lips.

“I love you too, y/n.” He whispered back as he held you close, his voice almost lulling you to sleep.

The two of you then became one, breathing as you lay atop another, hand in hand, looking back and forth with such love and passion.

Needing another, you both refused to move away. And eventually, you drifted to heavenly sleep as his head rested against your chest. He stayed there, arms wrapped around you, listening to the quiet drum of your heartbeat as you fell into your slumber with exhaustion. And still, after all of this, he still couldn’t believe you were here in his arms, with him. The memory of your exchanged ‘I love you’ replaying in his head as he felt overcome with warmth and belonging, he felt like he was home, with you.

.

Warm-toned shades of yellow and peach creeped through your windows. Dawn had come. Though as you looked down at the man clutched onto you so desperately, you couldn’t help but kiss the top of his head and take in his embrace as he nested his face in the crook of your neck. Still coming down from your high of the night, you chuckled quietly to yourself as you whispered a soft “I love you.” Back at the man still dreaming under your embrace.

Deciding to brush your delicate fingers through his marvellous locks, you couldn’t resist peppering soft little kisses along his face, trailing down to his neck and collarbones.

As his eyelashes batted gracefully, the man groaned. The deep octaves of his sleepy vocal cords doing wonders to you.

“I’m sorry, love. Did I wake you?” You continued to place soft kisses on his warm skin.

“Hmm. I’m glad you did.” He smiled whilst stretching. A red tint appeared on his cheeks as you called him that name.

Smiling in return, you decided to sit up, still holding the sheet up to your chest.

“I have never slept better.” The man admitted through a yawn whilst bringing his hands to his face to rub his eyes, adjusting to the light of the morning.

You slowly got up, wrapping a small throw blanket from the end of your bed around you as you stood up. And as you began to tread to the bathroom, you noticed the slight ache between your legs. Sighing in slight pain, you continued to make your way to the medicine cabinet in your quaint little bathroom to grab a morning after pill. Whilst taking the pill and swallowing water, you felt the familiar hands of Severus snake around your midsection.

Kissing your back, he inhaled your hair.

“What are you doing, my love?” He asked quietly, his voice still croaky and course.

“I’m assuming you don’t want a baby in the next coming nine months or so do you, Sev? The morning after pill is my solution to that.” You laughed and looked at the man behind you in the reflection of the vanity mirror. Upon hearing what you said, he froze a little.

Then laughing back with an exhale, he nodded in agreement as he turned you around, pulling you in for another kiss.

“Your right, not now.” He replied gazing down at you with a smirk lining his lips.

And with that, he pulled you into the shower swiftly before you could protest, insisting on after care as he gently placed kisses on the scattered bruises he left.

“You are so perfect” You heard him whisper as he held you in his arms whilst the warm steamy water of the shower ran down your bodies. Closing your eyes with a smile and pulling him closer, you shut him up with a kiss.
