~September 2nd - Monday Morning~
Severus' POV:
I was hardly able to close an eye to sleep last night. My mind kept circling around my encounter with (Y/N). She seemed surprised to have seen me. Although, seeing her only reminded me more of the tragic events that had occurred recently.
Sighing, I stood from the bed in order to prepare for today's classes. I made my way towards the Great Hall. Passing students seemed to avoid eye contact with me. I've already made an impression on many students and seem to have gained their respect. I was fond of this newly experienced respect that lacked when I myself was a student. I will make sure to keep it that way if it means having to be strict with my students. I will not tolerate foolishness or disrespect.
Taking my seat in the Great Hall, I was able to enjoy a somewhat quiet breakfast. Luckily, Minerva didn't insinuate any unnecessary small talk.
I spotted (Y/N) staring in my direction, portraying an expression that made her look as though she were trying to analyze me. I felt uncomfortable with her stares and attempted to have her loose interest by continuing to eat. Eventually, she looked away.
(Y/N)'s POV:
I was eating my breakfast, talking with a couple Slytherin first years who were asking me for directions to a specific classroom when Lucas came up behind me, startling me.
"(Y/N)! Guess what happens on Thursday!" He exclaimed excitedly as the first years went back to their seats.
"What happens?" I asked him with a sigh.
"Quidditch Tryouts!" He exclaimed.
"Oh wait! Yeah! I nearly forgot about that. I can't wait!" I smiled widely and pulled Lucas down to sit and eat breakfast with me.
After finishing our food, Lucas nudged me.
"You ready for Flying practice (Y/N)? That's our first class." I hear him say.
"Definitely!" I replied as we made our way to where Madam Hooch was waiting for us outside.
-After Lunch-
"(Y/N), it seems that our next class is Potions with Professor Snape." Lucas elbowed me to get my attention away from my lunch.
"Oh yeah. That's our last class isn't it?" I asked him.
"Yep, you'll have a chance to talk to him after class then." He replied.
I nodded and smiled a little. I can't wait to catch up on where he has been these past two years.
-When Class Starts-
I sat down with Lucas at a table in the classroom where two other Slytherins were seated. After getting situated, Lucas and I waited for class to begin. All of a sudden, the door swung open and Severus, or, I guess Professor Snape now, walked in swiftly. He caught everyone off guard. There was no sound except for Severus' shoes hitting the floor as he walked. His cloak fluttered behind him in such a mesmerizing way. As well as his hair. I also noticed how tall and well built he was. He had definitely changed in the last two years.
Before he spoke, he made his way up to his desk, spun around to face everyone and lean't against the desk with one of his legs. He eyed every single person before speaking, including me. He seemed to try to avoid eye contact with me in particular however.
"We will begin this class with mandatory rules.." Severus stated suddenly, catching everyone's attention again.
He stood up from his leaning position and slowly walked around the classroom with his hands clasped behind himself, explaining,
