Sleppy
~~Flashback~~ (your pov)
~I am so nervous right now, I can't believe I am at Hogwarts.~ The big doors for Hogwarts open and a sweet old lady comes out of it and gives a tiny speech "Welcome to Hogwarts everyone, for the next years of your life this would be like a home to most of yall. You will be selected into one of these four houses: Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, and Slytherin, best of luck." With that, she started to walk and all of us started following upfront, of course, I always stayed in the back I hated the attention but all I could hear were the gasps and the jaws dropping from my fellow students about the magic ceiling in the Great Hall I agree that it was quite magnificent but magic was always around me good or bad it was always present with me. I started to hear Professor McGonagall, now that I know her name, calling other students names and wait patiently to hear my name till I hear her say "Y/N Moon" I hear some whispers about my last name and know exactly what they are talking about but chose to ignore it and as I sit on the brown old chair Professor puts the famous Sorting Hat on my head and starts to speak "Umm a Moon, I see some bravery in here but so much sadness, I see hardworking and very cunning, well SLYTHERIN." I get up and all I can hear now is claps and yelling from my table, without thinking twice I go to my fellow Slytherins and try to make friends with a platinum blonde boy named Draco Malfoy he was really nice and kinda cute and he introduced me to his friends Goyle and Crabbe, they were also nice but when I spoke to Goyle he turned red and left running away from our table, Draco just started laughing and then I started laughing and then we couldn't stop laughing we got all red and almost couldn't breathe.
~~ End of flashback~~ (still your pov)
Here I am, in these cold dungeons at 3 am without sleep for days looking out the common room wrapped in blankets trying to relax but tonight I wasn't alone, I could feel two eyes on me in the back of the door, I take my wand out and light a Lumos very quiet and caught the person with his back turned on me when I ask with my feet getting cold "Turn around now." as he does I noticed it's Professor Snape and he asks in a frightening tone, "What are you doing here at this time of the night, miss Moon?" I lowered my wand and answered with a bit of stuttering due to the cold and being afraid of getting detention, I was one of the only students that haven't caught detention with Professor Snape yet so I don't want to try it out "I- I couldn't sl- sleep, Professor." "How long have you gone without sleeping, Moon?" I was amazed by his question even if it seemed little it was the first time that someone asked a question about my well-being " Fo- Four days Sir." His tone drops a few notes and asks, "And why is that?" I start to feel a small tear forming in the corner of my eye "Nightmares Sir." He raises an eyebrow at me and says now looking deeply into my eyes as if he was trying to read my mind as if I didn't know how to block it easily "Sir don't try to read my mind, it won't work." I say with somewhat confidence in my voice still shaking from being cold and he steps a little closer to me now I can smell his breath that as a big scent of coffee and burnt wood and said looking down at me "Very smart miss Moon, follow me." with that he did a huge cape swift and walked somewhat fast.
I followed him being a little behind and as soon as we arrived at his personal chambers he opened the door and let me in first, I didn't even think twice about sitting on his comfortable velvet green couch in front of the fireplace and he comes out of a dark room to bring me a potion in a glass vial. I must be so sleep-deprived because I didn't realize yet that I am in my teacher's chambers on his couch and just what is wrong with me?
"Drink it." He says, very bluntly and in a monotone tone sitting next to me in the couch.
"What is it?" I ask, afraid of what the potion would do to me if I drink it.
"Don't worry it won't kill you, it will make you sleep and will help you with your nightmares."
I do as he says and drink the potion while looking right into his deep brown eyes trying to read his mind but there was nothing just no thoughts or feelings.
I'm starting to get really sleepy and my eyes are beginning to feel so heavy and I put my head onto his shoulder while he picks the Daily Prophet and reads it for a while. After a few hours, he picks me up, while being completely knocked out and in a bridal style he puts me to bed and pulls the covers on me.
~~Snape's POV~~~
I don't know what came over me, I felt the huge urge to protect her and to be able to care for and take care of her but it's wrong.
-SEVERUS SNAPE FOCUS- I yell at myself in my thoughts on the way to my sweet bed for some hours until I have to give classes to annoying kids that mess my classroom.
Ahhhhh sweet bed, I tried to get sleep but I can't see her image is running on my mind, I wonder what her nightmares were about, now that I am thinking about it I have never seen her eat a full meal or laugh with joy.
My mind had thoughts like this ones for hours none end.
