severus snape imagines 🐍❤️

• Carry Me •

Severus walked into the Great Hall, his eyes was looking for you. It was something that he had grown accustom to since you became friends with him. However, his fire to start the day died down a little bit when you were nowhere to be seen.

He hated to admit it but he was falling for you. It was hard not to, you were drop dead gorgeous and your kindness overwhelmed him every time. Thus, he was looking forward to seeing you every day, and it was worrying him when you were late for breakfast. It was unusual for you to come later than him.

Sighing, he went to sit with the other teachers, saving a seat next to him for you. The teachers knew right away to keep that one particular seat empty, knowing that Severus wanted to sit beside you. He never thought that they noticed, but they did. They noticed how close he was with you and how much the Potions Master enjoyed your company, it was just a matter of time until you and him got together like you should.

"Where is Y/N?"

Severus frowned at Flitwick's question, and he shook his head, not knowing where you were. Then he was reminded of your meeting with him yesterday. You told him that you were exhausted, and the students were giving you a hard time for a few weeks already. He offered to talk to your students, but you being as selfless as ever, you refused his offer.

"She seems unwell when I met her yesterday."

Flitwick pointed out, and Severus nodded weakly. He had noticed it too. You were not getting enough sleep because of your work, and he could see that you were not feeling well. Severus let out an exasperated sigh, thinking that he should've helped you yesterday instead of letting you leave without giving you any healing potions.

He was shook from his train of thoughts when Filch ran across the Great Hall to the teachers table. The man seemed to be worried and scared at the same time, and it was not a good sign. Filch went to Dumbledore, but his eyes darted from the headmaster to Severus, contemplating who should he talk to about the news that he brought.

"I found Professor L/N unconscious. I think she fainted while she was walking here."

Filch revealed, and Severus' heart dropped at his words. He quickly stood up from his chair before Dumbledore could, worry filled his eyes as the thought of you being harm was swarming his head.

"Where is she?"

Dumbledore asked, seeing how panic the younger professor was. They all knew how Severus cared for you, and the news must had struck him across his heart.

"Professor Lupin took her to the hospital wing."

Severus growled under his breath at the mention of the other professor's name. While he knew you thought of Lupin as nothing more than a friend, it did not mean that he was not jealous with how close you were with his colleague. And now when you were in trouble, Lupin was there with you instead of him.

Severus went to the hospital wing with Albus and Minerva trailing behind him, because he was walking as fast as he could, worry was clouding his mind. The students gulped when they saw the look on his face that could kill. They had never seen him that enraged before. While he was concerned about you, he was angry at himself for not noticing your health condition and now you were in the hospital wing because of his ignorance.

As soon as he stepped into the hospital wing, he saw you lying in your bed, with Remus sitting next to you. His worry only got worsen and it turned into a burning jealousy when he saw Remus was holding your hand in his.

Severus practically shoved Madam Pomfrey aside, who wanted to tell him about your condition. Madam Pomfrey sighed, and talked to Albus and Minerva instead. Both of the older professors could not help but smiled when he saw how protective Severus was. He strode to your bed, squinting his eyes at Remus.
