✨Sonnet✨ | Severus Snape x Reader

✨14✨

An annoying muggle song was stuck in my head as I cleaned off the desk. All my hard work drawing was being erased and I was being given the silent treatment until it was done. Maybe dating Severus was going to be a little more difficult than I had thought.

When I finished, I stood up, stretching out the kink in my back, and I didn't miss the flicker of his eyes in my direction when my shirt rode up a little. 

Got you, I knew the grumpy act was a front.

Severus wordlessly stood from his desk and made his way over to me, running a finger along the polished desk.

"So clean you can see your actual face in it now." I joked, taking a breath as he raised an eyebrow at me, unimpressed.

"I'd appreciate it if you didn't draw on my desks in the future." He sat down on the desk, immediately covering up all of my hard cleaning work with his butt. "Now, do you want to tell me what all that was back in the cupboard?"

"W-what do you mean?" Even sat on the desk, he was so much taller than me. It was a little scary how he could be so intimidating with so little effort.

"You were trying to distract me..." His eyes slowly raked over me, and I felt goosebumps rise on my arms under his gaze. "I'd appreciate it if you didn't do that either. It's hard for me to concentrate."

Ah. When I was thinking about him railing me in a cupboard. "I already told you, I can't control my thoughts." 

"Well you can try and not think about it now, can't you?" Oops, he'd talked the images right back into my head. It was hard not to get distracted when Severus was sat right in front of me. All I wanted was to be with him. I decided to concentrate on them a little harder, watching as Snape got more and more hot under the collar. "We're still on school time, you shouldn't be doing that."

"You're the one bringing it up." I pointed out. "Unless I'm bringing it up too."

I couldn't believe the words leaving my mouth, I never talked like this. I was usually quite shy about this kind of thing. My body was suddenly so hungry for Severus, I hadn't felt this strongly in so long.

Severus looked a little surprised that I'd said it too, but that didn't stop him standing back up off of the desk and closing the gap between us, standing right over me, hands planted firmly on the desk either side of my thighs. He looked as though he was going to eat me alive. "Just because we're seeing each other now, doesn't mean I'm going to go easy on you. You were distracting me from work, and you didn't do my homework... That deserves punishment."

Oh, shit.

I felt my heart pound as the words left his mouth, stunned into silence. I had never expected Severus Snape to say something like that this quickly. My blood was rushing south, his deep voice really getting to me. Jesus Christ, I wanted this man.

He can still read your mind, dumbass. It was a little exciting, knowing that Snape knew everything I felt, everything I thought. 

I swallowed thickly as Severus moved closer, but gladly leaned in when he tried to to kiss me, our mouths colliding in a deliciously passionate clash. My hands tangled up into his hair, and he let out a small appreciative grunt as I gave a tug. He was warm and huge, his tongue pushing past my lips, his thigh pushing between mine, his hands snaking under my legs, and suddenly I was lifted off the desk. He was stronger than I had imagined too. He pulled his mouth back couple of millimetres, speaking softly against my lips. "We haven't been together long, are you sure you want this?"

"Yes." I breathed back, and felt my whole body lurch. I let out a little shriek, thinking he had dropped me, but found that he had apparated us straight to his chambers. The excitement prickled at all of my nerves. "You can apparate in Hogwarts?"

"The benefits of being Dumbledore's most trusted teacher." 

He walked us over to his bed, setting me down on the sheets, his whole body following. Those large hands took mine and pinned them above my head. Laying here in his bed, everything I could see, smell and feel was Severus. 

His mouth broke apart from mine again, instead trailing kisses down towards my jawline, down to my neck, and further still to my collarbone under my loose shirt. I let out a gasp as I felt him bite down on the skin softly. Not enough to mark, but enough to make me notice. 

The potions professor was ever so lightly grinding himself on my leg, trying to find any kind of friction he could, and my whole body was reacting to it. I could feel everything.

He brought himself back up to face level, the same sultry look he always kept on his face, but his eyes were alight with anger and passion. "Do you know what else I saw in the cupboard?"

I shook my head, still unable to move properly as he held me down. "I saw Neville's thoughts. When you touched his hand. I see it constantly when he's in my classes. He wants you. Wants to take you from me."

If I wasn't so distracted by Severus, I'd say I was a little surprised. I knew Neville liked me, but not that much. I was more concerned with the possessiveness, though. It was strange, this was very unlike Severus.

"He won't". It came out as a squeak, as his mouth resumed kissing my neck.

It was very unlike Severus. 

Actually, it was very unlike either of us. 

"Severus," I whispered between light kisses, "what was in the jar that Neville dropped."

Severus pulled back, looking at me through hooded eyes. "Amortentia I think-"

He stopped almost immediately, realisation flooding his face as he looked between us. "You got it on your hands... We've been drugged."

The potion was extremely strong, especially in the purest form, which of course was how Severus stored it. It had probably soaked in through our skin. It was making me so overwhelmed with feelings for Severus, I almost regretted pointing it out.

He pulled away, but my whole being was screaming at him to come back. I couldn't help it, I grabbed him by the shirt again, pulling. He fell back towards me, stopping himself right before he headbutted me. 

"Don't go, Severus." I begged, and panic ran through his face. 

He shook his head, and I could see that mentally he was willing himself to leave. "I can't take advantage of you when you're drugged." He placed one last peck to my complacent, desperate lips, before standing up straight. I had to admire his restraint, considering he was drugged too.

"Then Severus," since I was filled with an unreasonable amount of confidence, I may as well make the most of it, "can we continue this when it's worn off?"

Severus hesitated, then nodded slightly, almost unnoticeably. He was still awkwardly hard, and turned away from me for a while, trying to cover it up. 

"I thought amortentia caused love, not lust." I frowned, still trying to get myself together. I figured if I could get him talking about potions, he might relax a little. 

He nodded, still facing the other way. "It can do both, depending on how strong it is. Lust is just another component of love, is it not?"

There was another moment of silence. I worried for a moment that Severus wanted me to go but didn't want to say anything, though as I was thinking that, he turned back to me, looking a little sympathetic.

"Of course I don't want you to go." I will never get used to him being a legilimens. Never.

He strode back over to the bed, perching next to me, and draping an arm over my shoulder. The potion definitely hadn't worn off, then. "It's nice having you around. You're like a breath of fresh air."

I blushed at the sentiment, and pecked him on the cheek quickly. It didn't help that I was still feeling the potion too, and every fibre of my being was telling me to jump him.

There was a knock at the door after a moment, and the voice of Professor MCGonagall echoed through the room.  "Severus, I need to speak to you about something."

Severus looked between me and the door, motioning for me to hide. I quickly dove under the bed, scooting up towards the wall, so I couldn't be seen, as he opened the door.
