[HP] look at you

The alarm clock by the bed was ticking, Snape rested his hands behind his head, staring at the bedspread above his head in a daze.

The body is protesting because it has not rested all day and night, but the spirit is as clear as if it has just taken a cold shower.He thought he was thinking, but when the door was gently opened outside the bed curtain, he realized that his mind had been blank all along.

Bloom is a little late today.After flashing such a thought, Snape stopped distracting his mind and immersed himself in his own world again.

He shouldn't have released that Patronus.Snape regretted it.He felt that he must have been confused by Siren's singing at that time, so he made such a move uncontrollably.He should bear it a little longer, wait... What are you waiting for?

Snape himself was at a loss.

Wait another year or two, the situation should be no different from now.

He remembered that Olivia was so startled that she almost choked on water, she waved her hand stiffly and then turned around to walk away, showing no joy or shyness at all. Even though he had no experience, he knew what that reaction represented.

She doesn't like him.

When Snape's heart realized this, it suddenly felt as if a hole had been dug, and it was filled with cold wind and ice water.

He even developed resentment uncontrollably.

If you don't like me, why are you being so nice to me?He rolled over in pain.

Lily was nice to him because she was nice to everyone.Olivia's attitude gave him the absurd illusion that he was different and she was special to him.

Maybe, she thinks the eccentric and gloomy him is very interesting, so she treats him a little special.She is always like this, when she treats new, interesting and useful things, she will give them a lot of enthusiasm, which makes people feel how much she loves those things.In fact, it was just one of many things she was interested in.

It's really shameless for such an unattractive and eccentric guy like him to still expect to be favored by such an outstanding girl.

Greedy and pathetic attempt.

Now, she is probably wondering how to properly reject him. She is always very soft and considerate to those close to her. Even if she feels resistance to his ignorance in her heart, she probably won't show it.

Snape felt his body sinking slowly in the mire of the swamp, the smelly mud had covered his nose and mouth, almost suffocating.

The vibration under the pillow woke him up.

He whips out SOME quickly.

Olivia: I'm a bit hungry, how about you?

Snape thought he could finally breathe.

Olivia was wearing a thick sweater, cotton velvet slippers, and wrapped in a woolen blanket, sitting in front of the fireplace in the living room. The hot chocolate in her hand was fragrant and warm. After taking a sip, she felt that her stomach was connected with her heart. almost.

She paid attention to the curtain, and when she saw someone coming out, she waved.

Snape walked quickly across to him and sat down.

"I told you to remember to wear a scarf." Olivia complained.

He looked like he had put on clothes indiscriminately, not even a coat.If it was someone else, she would have to wonder if this was a bitter trick.But in his words, he should have rushed out immediately after receiving the message.

She patted the empty seat next to her: "Sit down."

Snape stared at her blankly.

Olivia urged: "Come here, do you want me to write an invitation letter?"

He stood up and sat stiffly beside her.

This is actually a single sofa, but the two people are not too big to be squeezed together.But in this way, the bodies of the two were tightly pressed together.

It wasn't that they had never been this close before, but now Snape was suddenly so nervous that his heart beat like a drum.

It seemed that once he realized his mood, those behaviors that were so natural in the past began to have special meaning.

Olivia pulled the blanket off her body and divided it in half for him: "Cover it tightly, and don't let the cold wind in."

Snape followed her orders like a puppet.

Olivia couldn't help laughing: "You talk." It's rare for him to have such a stupid look, and he looks quite cute.

Snape said dryly, "Is the fever gone?"

"Aren't you confident in your own potions?"

Snape was silent.It's not just potions, he now feels like he's a failure.

However, Olivia's attitude made him feel a little hopeless, and he immediately suppressed that unrealistic thought.

In the early morning, the lounge was empty and quiet, only the crackling sound of the firewood in the fireplace.

Seeing Snape's distraught look, Olivia sighed inwardly, and stuffed a cup of hot chocolate into his hand as well.There were also some freshly baked puddings and cakes on the table. It is estimated that he has no appetite to eat them now.

She turned her head to look at him, and went straight to the point: "Last night, the patron saint you released, if I didn't misunderstand, it should be a confession, right?"

Snape was already frozen, and upon hearing this, Olivia felt that the part of him against her body had completely turned into marble.

He stared down at the glass in his hand.

"Huh?" Olivia didn't let him go, "Don't let me talk a lot later, you tell me you didn't mean that at all, then I will throw you into the fireplace as firewood."

Snape took a slow breath and looked up at her: "Yes, you can take this as a bad joke, I..."

"I just need to listen to the first word, and I don't need to talk about the rest." Olivia interrupted him rudely, "Since it is a confession, I also assume that you need me to respond, then I will Answer seriously." She paused, "Sorry, I can't accept it."

Snape stood up abruptly, the hot chocolate in his mug turned over.

Olivia grabbed him quickly, and cleaned it up in time.

"I've said it countless times. Be patient. I haven't finished talking yet. Why are you running?"

Reluctantly hugging Snape's arm tightly, in order not to torture his mood, she continued quickly: "Maybe in your view, a confession is a clarion call to ask for consent, but in my opinion, a confession is a pursuit Finally, you can’t just ask someone if a dish is delicious before it’s ready, right? Promise you."

Snape turned his face away sharply, eyes widening.

"Well, so—" Olivia said she felt embarrassed, she scratched her cheek, "If you really want me to accept it, shouldn't you think about pursuing me seriously? ?”

Snape felt like he was finally breaking free from the swamp, every cell in his body was jumping for joy and being born again.

Olivia saw that his whole face was lit up, she couldn't bear to look directly at him and supported her forehead: "I haven't agreed yet, don't be so happy so fast, okay?"

Snape desperately restrained the corners of his mouth from turning up too much, but he also knew that his expression must be the same as that of the Potter he despised the most in the past, extremely stupid.

Olivia couldn't be bothered to look at him anymore, so she picked up the snacks on the table and ate them. After she was half full, Snape finally collected his emotions and was able to communicate normally.

He returned to his usual appearance, but with a smile in his eyes, he tried to say seriously, "So, what should I do next?"

Olivia gave him a blank look: "Do you want me to teach you how to chase girls?"

Snape thought for a moment, "Like Potter?" But he didn't see Lily being moved either.

Let's forget about Potter's way, if it's difficult for Snape, it's also difficult for her.Olivia sighed, feeling that she had really picked up a big trouble.

"What about you, what you have to do now is to find a way to please me." She said brokenly, "Anyway, I've given you a chance, and then you can figure it out. If you don't impress me, then I can only blame you I can't do enough on my own."

She felt that she had treated this suitor quite leniently.

Snape pursed his lips in thought for a moment, then nodded.

Olivia was a little curious about what he was thinking.

After drinking the hot chocolate in his hand, he felt drowsy again.Olivia took out her pocket watch and looked at it. It was almost four o'clock. Fortunately, there was no class this morning, so she could sleep in.

"Okay, go to sleep for a while." She noticed the shadows under Snape's eyes, "Don't think about it so much, the days are long."

Snape stood up with her and walked her to the curtain of the girls' dormitory.

Olivia stopped and looked at him: "Shouldn't you say something at this time?"

Pursing his lips, Snape hesitated for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence: "Thank you."

Olivia was surprised for a moment, thought for a while, and then said seriously: "Don't make a mistake, I didn't say that because I was embarrassed to refuse you, I just think——you are very good."

She can accept his shortcomings, and she appreciates his advantages very much.Although the temper is a bit bad, it is also a kind of fun for two people to grind their teeth.As far as the present is concerned, although there is no feeling of heartbeat, they get along very well and have a tacit understanding.the most important is--

"To me, you are not some other insignificant person, you are Severus Snape, I think you are very important, so..." She tilted her head and smiled at him: "If a girl wants to Accepting your pursuit must mean that you are worth trying."

Snape blushed again.

Olivia patted him on the shoulder: "You have to work harder. If I can't like you, I will feel very sorry."

Snape grabbed her hand that was about to be retracted, and breathed out, "I don't think it's a pity."

"what?"

"Even if you don't like me, I don't feel sorry."

He suddenly felt that it didn't matter whether he could get the same kind of heart or not. Meeting Olivia and falling in love with her was already the luckiest thing in his life.

Olivia opened her eyes slightly, and then laughed out loud: "Very well, congratulations Mr. Snape, one point."

Snape also smiled, slowly let go of her hand, and looked at her softly: "Go back, good night."

Olivia also smiled softly: "Good night, sweet dreams."
