Chapter 21
Chapter 20
Severus downed a bottle of his own Pepper Up Potion and walked out of his rooms for the first time in a week. In his arms he held an assortment of bottles and clothes that belonged to Chloe.
It was late, so no students would see him. And he also hoped to catch her unawares. He was forming a plan as he strode purposefully towards her rooms.
The whole time thinking….
What if it he hadn’t dreamt it all after all?
***************
Chloe lay in her bed and tried to relax. She waited for Frenny to return, but she didn’t.
In fact, she was getting worried about the little elf. All she had to do was pop in and out of Severus’ rooms. Chloe lay in her night clothes, hair flowing down her shoulders, and looked at the clock.
Frenny had been gone too long.
Just as she was lifting herself from the bed to go looking for her, she heard her door close loudly.
**************
He decided to not even knock. He tapped the door knob with his wand and it opened for him. Her rooms smelled like her. Everything was as he left it the last time he was here.
He closed the door harder than needed.
He wanted to announce his arrival.
*******************
Chloe stood frozen for a moment. Frenny never used the door. She popped in and out with magic.
Her heart thundered in her chest as she walked from her sleeping chamber and into the sitting room.
****************
His breath caught in his chest. He saw her, before she saw him.
She was draped in a lose fitting, black nightgown. Her hair…her hair was down and flowed over her shoulders in exquisite ripples.
He felt his chest contract and then her eyes fell on him. He saw her shock, amazement and then fear.
She was indeed, the most beautiful thing he had ever laid eyes on.
*************
He was here.
There he stood, looking paler than usual and thinner than he should, but he was here.
Chloe stood still and listened to his voice, deep and pure, come from the darkness of her room.
******************
“You were there, weren’t you? The whole time. I thought it was a dream…but…” he realized that he had no idea what to say or do next. He needed to know what he saw, felt and heard during his incapacitation was real or a dream.
He needed to know.
She nodded her beautiful head at him. Her eyes filling with tears.
He had an idea.
He placed her things on the sofa and walked toward her. Stopping a feet from her trembling body.
“Do you trust me Chloe?” He asked in a hoarse whisper. Her eyes told him that she was confused, but that she did trust him.
She nodded.
“I will not hurt you. I just need to know…” he pointed his wand at her. “May I?” Her eyes opened wider and she nodded again.
“Legilimens!”
Images flashed from her mind to his.
He saw himself sitting in her chair drinking wine. Her heart aching to go to him and hold him. But the feeling that she would be rejected if she did.
The picture of him walking in the school halls…her heart bursting with affection and happiness at the sight of him.
Her worry and fear for him as she taught her classes.
His body, mangled and bloody on his own bed. Her horror at seeing someone she cared deeply for in so much pain.
Her stroking his face and kissing his brow. Begging him to be strong…to come back to her.
Her crying in the shower for him.
Her cringing as he vomited on her. But still holding tight to his convulsing body.
Her holding him all night, close to her body, to give him comfort.
Him sucking on her breast. Her pleasure as he did so. Her desire for more, but her desire to have him want her when he was well.
Potter and his friends standing over the two of them. Potter vowing vengeance for what had happened to him.
Him screaming at her to leave.
Her pain and confusion as she left him in his rooms.
Severus stopped only when he realized that Chloe was on the floor. Laying on her back, eyes closed and breathing heavily. Tears were falling from the corners of her eyes.
She was beautiful, and she cared for him. She had been there for everything. She had not left, she had not run away. She stayed when no one else did. She comforted him when no one else could.
He cursed himself for his behavior on their last encounter. He was wrong, and he knew it.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. He was still standing over her, drinking in her beauty and allowing the shock of it all sink in.
“Severus…” She opened her arms and beckoned him to her.
He needed no further incentive.
The bedchamber door closed behind them with a click.
