[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Chapter 147 What should have been said a long time ago

"Joe!" Snape lowered his head and stared at Jody in surprise.Her tone suggested that what she had just said seemed subconscious, but that was why Snape was all the more shocked.It never occurred to him that he would hear her say that.For a moment, he even suspected that the warm and sweet fragrance in the air made him hallucinate—he never knew that Jody would use this fragrance in his room, which is of great significance to them and has a The fragrance of countless precious memories.

Jody didn't realize what he had just said until then.She felt her cheeks were a little hot, she squeezed her lips together tightly, lowered her head, and silently began to re-bandage Snape's wound.In all the years they've been together, she's never said anything like this... uncomfortable.

Snape was looking down at the top of Jody's head, her jet-black hair falling over her shoulders, completely covering her face, preventing him from seeing her expression.This made him impatient with the dressing.At this moment, he desperately wants to look at her face, her eyes, accompanied by the kind of joy that is enough to drive him crazy, is the disbelief hidden deep in his heart.

"Just now... I wasn't dreaming, was I?" His tone was full of uncertainty, "Joe?"

Jody stiffened for a moment, but still gently, as he fixed the bandages on Snape's legs and lowered his trousers.

After doing all this, she stood up.This time, she stared at Snape condescendingly, with embarrassment and obvious annoyance that had not yet faded in her eyes. "...I always thought your ears were very sensitive?"

This is a more accustomed way of getting along with each other - it always seems to be stinging and sharp when getting along, but it makes people unwilling to back down at all.

Jody expected Snape to contradict himself as quickly as he usually did.But this time, Snape looked carefully at Jody's face without saying a word, stretched out his arms, and held her tightly in his arms before her ruddy and delicate lips uttered sharper words. Resting his head on her chest, he laughed softly. "Joe...I don't think I've seen you so...childish in a long time."

Jody tried uncomfortably to move away from Snape. "Let go of me, Severus. We...we still have a lot to do."

"No, don't move." Snape hugged Jody so tightly that she couldn't see his expression, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he let out a muffled laugh mixed with a low murmur. "I'm happy...I'm really happy..."

Jody had never heard Snape laugh like that.It never occurred to her that her words would make Snape so happy.Compared to Jody, perhaps Snape, who was so happy for such a sentence, looked more childish.

Because of the special position between them, Snape's loud laughter seemed a little suppressed, and it sounded a little hysterical.But such messy murmurs and laughter made Jody simply give up struggling.She reached out and hugged Snape's head back, just as he had just done, stroking his hair tenderly.

She remembered that when Irene passed away, she also hugged him like this. At that time, he hid in her arms and wept silently. Her heart was full of tenderness. For the first time, she forgot that she wanted to protect her family , The purpose of protecting the Potter family is only thinking about him, just like now.

This man is always so stubborn, hiding all his intense emotions behind his face.Usually, he always uses a flat and indifferent expression to wrap up all his moods tightly, without leaking.Even at a time like this, he would hide his rarely revealed emotions, so that no one could see him.Thinking of him being so stubborn in front of him, Jody suddenly felt a little annoyed. However, what position did he have to blame Snape?

Maybe they did... Thinking of this, Jody suddenly cupped Snape's cheek playfully, leaning back slightly, trying to raise his head.And she did, because he was so submissive and didn't resist her touch.She suddenly felt very happy, because she knew that only she could do this to a professor who was intimidated by students.

There was still a smile on Snape's face that hadn't dissipated, and that expression made Jody feel kind and strange.She had never felt like Snape as he did now...

"I'm so glad you don't usually smile like that, or I'd go crazy with envy." Jody looked at Snape fascinated, and also showed a smiling face. She gently poked Snape's lips with her finger. laugh lines. "I'm so glad I'm the only one who can see your smiling face... and only I can do that..."

Snape raised his hand, grabbed Jody's hand and pressed a kiss on his lips: "I really thought I'd never hear you say that in my life."

"This sentence, or the one just now?" Jody slightly arched his back, facing Snape's forehead.

"All." Snape sighed softly. "Joe, I always thought that even without me, you would be able to protect Harry well and fulfill your duties as you do now."

"I will indeed continue to do what you said." Jody's body stiffened for a moment, but she soon relaxed in Snape's arms, and there was obvious self-mockery in her tone: "Remember you Having said something similar many years ago, I admit it, Severus, I have been really bad to you. I seem to have been just manipulating you, using you, even this time... If I hadn't If I went to look after Harry instead of chasing Quirrell with you, maybe you wouldn't get hurt at all, and you wouldn't be nearly killed by Hagrid's three-headed dog..."

"What happened this time was not your fault." Snape interrupted Jody's remorse. "I accidentally fell into Quirrell's trap. I shouldn't have walked into the restricted area. Dumbledore once said that a wizard who doesn't know how to tame a three-headed dog can't pass in front of it, but I still feel a little uncomfortable." Don't worry...instead, I should thank you for being there in time and not being stupid enough to just cry and panic."

Snape looked at Jody seriously, no one disturbed them this time, he could finally clearly see how much fear and anxiety was hidden in his lover's eyes.Snape suddenly discovered that after seven years of separation and this period of reunion, maybe they now no longer need to open their minds to each other to make each other feel at ease, as Jody said in the past.There is no need to use Legilimency between them, no matter how advanced the Occlumency technique is, it is meaningless.Because each of their eyes can convey so many messages to each other.

Like now, Snape was sure, Jody must have felt what he was feeling now.He printed a kiss on her lips devoutly: "You saved me, Joe."

Jody let out a low chuckle: "If you insist on saying that, then I will say that I saved both of us."

"Ok?"

"Because, when that damn dog almost bit off your neck, I suddenly realized," Jody's eyes were shining brightly, with a very hot light. "Without you, I can indeed do a lot of things. I will still protect Harry, I will still try to revive James and Lily, and I will still help Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix to destroy Voldemort, but that The Jody Potter of my life will always be a shell, a dead body with responsibilities. When those responsibilities are gone, there will be no force left to keep me in this world— If the world didn't have you, Severus Snape." She let out a sudden breath of relief. "Severus, I'm sorry, I should have told you this long ago."

This time, Snape didn't smile.His lips trembled slightly, with a strange expression, as if he was about to say something.However, in the end, he only said a short sentence: "Thank you."

Jody's smiling eyes curled up, "Then..."

Jody's words made Snape's whole cheeks turn crimson now, as if he was going to save himself, he took Jody's words uncomfortably and said: "Then you've finished what you have to say to me, go on Come down, do you want to talk to the person who will let you fulfill your responsibilities?"

"Severus, you know me very well." Jody nodded with a smile, and his tone returned to that kind of sharpness: "Tell me about Harry! Although Quirrell failed to deal with Harry this time, But I'm afraid he won't give up. I'd rather give Harry a clue than let Harry think wildly."

Jody said, thinking of the letter Harry sent herself.Jody was very relieved by Harry's trust and concern for Snape, and the attitude in Harry's letter showed that he was extremely worried about Snape's injury.But she couldn't tell Harry everything, she had to let him discover the truth by himself.

"The clue of Nicole Flamel is too obvious." Snape pouted. "Besides, you actually helped that confused Granger..."

Speaking of Granger, Snape was visibly annoyed.

"If it wasn't because you treated Harry so badly, why would those two children suspect you in the first place?" Jody looked down at Snape's robe with a large corner burned off, and tried not to laugh out loud. "But Hermione is actually pretty smart, isn't she? I'm afraid it's rare even in Ravenclaw for students who can understand the essential elements of curses in the first grade. Besides, if she didn't create such a good opportunity, how could you Will there be a chance to throw Quirrell under the chair?"

"..." Snape looked at Jody dissatisfied, obviously dissatisfied with her defense of Granger.

"So, I'll buy you a new robe to compensate you?" Jody raised an eyebrow at Snape.

Seeing this look, Snape suddenly felt his throat a little dry, and his larynx couldn't help but move.But in the next second, Jody said solemnly: "Speaking of which, I'm really worried about Harry. He trusts you very much. Will he ignore the people who should be vigilant because of this..."

"Don't worry, I'm sure Harry Potter will be fine no matter what happens!" Snape said angrily and firmly.After putting the Harry Potter business aside for a while, Snape immediately felt better.

Compared with Snape's good mood at this moment, Harry's mood is not so good.

After leaving Professor Bubaji's office, he kept frowning, thinking about what Professor Bubaji had said.

"So she's Professor Bubbaji who teaches Muggle Studies. Percy took her class. I always thought she must be an unpopular professor—I really like Hufflepuff." Ron until After leaving Jody's office, I figured out what subjects the professor was in charge of.Holding a plate full of cakes and biscuits, he said happily. "Professor Bubbaji's snacks are delicious. I've never had them. Hermione, would you like them?"

"These are Muggle desserts." Hermione resolutely rejected Ron's plan to share those sweets with her, and glared at Ron: "I advise you not to eat too much, it's not good for your teeth." Good thing. And there should be more important things than eating dessert right now? Someone is going to kill Harry, remember?"

"Fortunately, Professor Bubbaji found out what Hermione did." Ron said with lingering fear, "It would be bad if Snape found out. Harry..."

"You still insist that Professor Snape wanted to kill me?" Harry said a little unhappy.

"I didn't mean to say that." Ron shrugged. "I just wanted to ask, why are you so convinced that Snape won't hurt you?"
