severus snape imagines 🐍❤️

• Take Me Home •

Severus walked into the room, dragging his feet as it was like he could feel the burden on his shoulders suffocating him, leaving no space for him to breath. His heart was troubled, and he hoped the war could end soon, hence he would not have to face these terrifying thoughts in his head anymore.

He could feel something was not right. Suddenly he was so afraid, if he was not able to come back home after the war. There was a tug on his heartstrings, telling him that the day of the war could be his last day breathing. Severus had dedicated his life to the Wizarding World, and he wondered if he was willing to die for it too, sacrificing his future for others.

His future, the one that he wanted to live with you after everything was over.

Severus walked towards the kitchen, following soft humming which he recognised so well, bringing a smile upon his face. Your sweet voice calmed him, and he watched as you made yourself a cup of coffee, humming a song under your breath to break the silence. He wanted to walk over to you and pull you into his arms, but he decided to watch you for awhile, thinking that it could be the last time he would be able to adore his lovely wife.

"Severus, look at my marks!"

You almost shoved your papers in his face, a grin was painted on your face as you were eager for him to see your marks. You had improved a lot since your friend decided to tutor you, and you would be lying if you said that you did not owe him anything.

"This is incredible, Y/N."

He muttered, his eyes widen when he saw your marks. You were a smart student, but on that particular subject, both of you knew how awful you were and Severus helped you a lot to improve your marks.

"Thank you for helping me."

You thanked him, kissing his cheek softly as a childish giggle erupted in your chest. Severus' face flushed, and he avoided your gaze, hoping that you were oblivious to his feelings for you.

"Anything for you."

He replied, trying to hold back a smile that was growing on his face. The young boy surely were falling for you, and he was not planning to stop.

"I think I can beat your marks next time, Snape."

You said smugly, making Severus rolled his eyes dramatically.

"In your dreams, L/N."

You were always the light in his darkest hour, a walking ray of sunshine for his cloudy days, ever since both of you were in school. He was not an easy person to deal with but you stood by him for years, not even once did you think to turn your back on him and Severus was a lucky person to have you as the love of his life.

You turned around and realised your husband was watching you with a smile on his face. It was as if he wanted to remember every feature of yours so that when he was gone, you would always be etched in his mind. You did not know what was running through his head, the fear of losing you, and the fear of leaving you behind when he was forced to leave.

Severus opened his arms for you, his smile widen as a grin creeped out on your face. Squealing, you ran towards him and threw yourself into his arm, your husband immediately planted a kiss on your head, wrapping his strong arms around you.

"I've missed you so much."

You mumbled, making a chuckle escaped his lips.

"I've only been gone for a few hours, love."

"A few long hours without you is tormenting me."

You argued, kissing him as he wrapped his arms around your waist to pull you closer against his chest. Severus kissed you back with the same passion, his fear slowly subsided as his love and affection for you were taking over his mind. Perhaps time stopped when his lips met yours, and he wished he could stay that way forever, together with you.
