Living Quarters

Severus' POV:

I lead (Y/N) to my private stores filled with various potions and ingredients.

"Did you notice any change in taste with your drink?" I asked her as I unlocked the door.

"It tasted bitter, like... reeeeally bitter. so bitter I thought my head would explode!" I heard her explain with slurred speech.

I deduced that this was probably the work of a specifically strong alcohol.

"It seems as though someone poured quite an amount of fire whiskey into your drink, (Y/N)." I told her as I stepped up the ladder to retrieve some pepper up potion.

As I was searching for it, (Y/N) spoke again.

"Have people ever told you that you look like a human sized bat when you wear your long robe?" (Y/N) stated while chuckling tiredly.

I rolled my eyes and continued searching until I heard a thud at the bottom of the ladder. (Y/N) had fallen asleep against the doorway. I grabbed the pepper up potion and then descended the ladder to pick her up off the ground. I linked my arm around her torso in order to get her up and attempted to have her walk with me.

"Where are we going, Sevy?" (Y/N) asks me in her drunken state.

"I'm taking you to my quarters." I replied.

"Ooo.. What're we gonna do there?" (Y/N) asks with a drunken giggle.

My face reddened a small bit as I picked up my pace.

"It is the closest room where I can properly treat you and give you the pepper up potion. You'll most likely fall asleep completely after taking this so you might as well fall asleep on a bed, not the floor." I explained as we reached the entrance to my quarters.

As soon as we walked in, I headed straight for the back room in order to lay (Y/N) down. I poured the pepper up potion into a mug and handed it to her.

"Drink this. It will make you feel better." I told her as I forced the mug into her hand.

She sat up and drank it before handing me the empty mug.

I set the mug on my night stand and looked back over at (Y/N) to see her staring at me. It was quite unsettling to say the least.

"What?" I questioned.

"Come here." She told me.

I walked in front of her, wondering what idiotic remark she would utter this time.

But instead of another stupid remark she reached toward me and pulled me down onto the covers. I felt her weight distribute on top of me, keeping me from moving away.

"Why do you have to be so damn attractive?" She suddenly exclaimed.

My face reddened as I sat up with her on my lap.

"(Y/N). This has gone far enough. You need rest and I certainly will not be taking advantage of you in this state." I replied to her earlier 'comment' on my appearance.

I attempted to remove her from my lap by pushing her to the side by her waist, but she held onto my wrists, stopping me once more. She leant forward, attempting to kiss me. I turned away just before she had the ability to do so. I finally succeeded in removing her from my lap. She lay down, smiling at me. She reached for my hand, seeming to want to hold it as she fell asleep.

I sat there, frozen in place thinking about what had all happened in just this one evening. I never thought I'd see the day.. And yet, that day has come. I felt, happy, suddenly.

After reminiscing for the moment, I decided to stand up and leave her to rest. Not before I draped a blanket over her form did I leave the room. I exhaled deeply as the days memories came flooding to mind...
