Rose felt extremely proud of herself in her creativity of procuring the ingredients needed for the wolfsbane. At least for a fifteen-year-old. A good number of them she already had in her personal stores (she had already planned on doing this anyway - Snape's help or not, but she was happy Snape had agreed. She felt like she would've bungled everything on her own - at least the first time, maybe the second. And the ingredients were indeed expensive. Common ingredients she didn't have in her personal stores was owl-ordered from the apocothary in Diagon Alley. Other, rarer, but not as questionable came from Hogsmeade... and she took a risk on Knockturn, and proved fruitful. Smartly, she ordered three months worth of each ingredient, to keep from looking too suspicious, using her own saved up pocket money. She had been planning on buying a dress that she'd seen in a window in Hogsmeade, but sacrifices were to be made. Plus, she didn't need another dress. She had plenty. She wore robes for 99% of her time at Hogwarts. Jogging shorts/pants and shirts for the times she joined the Quidditch team on practices, or James on a run, for a bit of exercise, and her casual clothes ranged varying from dresses to jeans. Today, however, in the attempt to look like she was trying, but not really, but she really was trying, she found herself in a loudly patterned maxi dress, surprisingly shoulders bare. It was a mixture of both magic and muggle ways to hide scars, including some magical scar hiding thing that she found in Diagon Alley. Though she knew the scars could still be seen if one looked hard enough, at least they weren't as pronounced as they usually were, on their own. After a few moments of loitering and psyching herself up, she knocked on the potions classroom door to announce her arrival before slipping in and closing the door behind her. She walked in, setting the basket in which she had put together their lunch in, on a desk, before approaching where he stood. Fidgeting slightly, heart thudding against her chest. She wasn't sure what the proper way to greet him was. He looked to be reading again, but it seemed her subconscious had already decided on what it wanted to do, as she walked around to stand behind him, hands on his shoulders to squeeze gently, and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "Morning, Sev," she whispered into his ear. Parts of her hoped, that if he had a bad week, that her greeting might bring a little bit of joy and comfort. Meaning, if she had somoene to greet her in such a way after a terrible week, she'd feel a little better. Like a good bar of chocolate.

Severus Snape had no idea why he felt so nervous this morning. He had woken up early, like usual, having procured the potions classroom from Slughorn for the day, using the excuse he wanted to practice some potions on his own. Which had done in previous years – and in a way it was true. There was so much he could do, and potions were just something that clicked with him – that and dark magic. Dark magic was complex and interesting – it relied on emotion, and while he was probably the person who showed the least amount of emotion at Hogwarts currently, he certainly felt those emotions and could manipulate them to have the desired effect.
Unlike a certain person, he was dressed in his regular robes – freshly cleaned of course, but still regular robes. He didn’t particularly care about fashion or how he looked – and yet this morning he still ran a brush through his hair because of who knew what had possessed him. When he heard the knock on the door, he knew who it was – Slughorn never bothered him when he used the classroom unless Severus asked him to come by to help. So, it had to be her – and she was right on time if his internal clock was working correctly.
He didn’t acknowledge her entering the room until she pressed a kiss to his cheek, after which his pale face turned to a light pink. He wasn’t quite used to this sort of physical affection – the only physical affection he got was occasionally from his mother and sometimes from Lily – though those were both platonic.
“Morning,” He replied writing a final note down and closing his book. Quite honestly, this week had been terrible – he had been mostly just lonely. And bored. Classes, especially potions, were incredibly boring this week. However, for some reason her presence brought a smile to his face. “I’ll brew the potion first, and you’ll watch. Since you said you’d bring enough for four potions, you’ll attempt to brew the potion and I’ll correct you while that happens, which will likely not turn out very well. The other two I’ll brew myself for my own purposes.”

She relaxed. The gesture had been welcomed, in fact, was he blushing? The even more hilarious bit was a light stain of lipstick on his pale cheek. Not terribly noticeable, but still there. She smiled secretively as she threaded her fingers through his hair as he spoke.
She scoffed slightly, however confident she was the first attempt would probably not turn out; but she thinks it won't be that bad. It'd be a miracle if she got such a potion right the first time. Good thing she got enough stuff for three months, and some change (she had factored in the botch first attempt, that is). That said, she removed herself from absently playing with his hair and began to lay out the ingredients on the table, smirking, including her own personal storage case. She figured if she was going to be prepping ingredients anyways, she might as well do the whole three months worth and get them into her case, as it was. She was really proud of herself.
"I would claim ye of little faith, with that quip about the first attempt not turning out very well, but, regardless of how good I am at potions, logic says you're right," she giggled. "Though, I don't think it'll be a too terrible first attempt, at least."
She mental noted the fact that he was brewing two for himself, keeping that knowledge for later.
"I'm ready to start!"

There was an amused smile that showed on his face when she mentioned her first attempt and his little faith in her. Of course, he succeeded his first time, but he did spend a good amount of time studying before he attempted it. And he understood the underlying theory behind the potion in general – it was just something that he was good at. What made a potion tick.
"It would only be a quip if it were a joke," He looked at her lazily, "I expect to have to clean up an explosion." He looked at her with a serious look, before just barely the corners of his lips curved up. He had no idea there was a slight lipstick stain on his cheek or he'd be attempting to wash it off. He reached into his bag pulling out a vial. "This is just if you want it, I made too much of a potion, and I mean, I'll just throw it away if you don't use it."
Yes, he'd noticed. And he knew how she tended to try to hide them. The potion was something she would drink, and it would make her scars disappear from the naked eye, only if someone was really looking for them would they be able to see – if they touched they'd feel them, but who would be touching her under her clothes?
Also, that was a slight lie. He brewed it on purpose to give it to her. Damn faint heart. It was good practice anyways, plus it was his own blend, which would be better than anything she could buy.

She wasn't some potions progeny; but Snape was. Which is why she was here. But an explosion? Come on!
For half a moment she glared at him, eyes blazing before the slight, and mind you, VERY slight turn up of his lips caught her eyes. She gaped. Oh, he'd made a joke now of course.
"Why you little-" she wasn't able to get the rest of whatever she was about to say out as he held out a vial to her, cutting her words, and her thoughts, off. She took the vial, looking at it. For this arrangement, he was giving her quite a few things. She kept that thought to herself, though. Never look a gift horse in the mouth, you know.
"I... is this for... my scars?" she blinked. Ah, he must've noticed them the other day, and she was working so hard to hide them now. Curious, she let her current glamour fall off of her, but it's not like she would be revealing much, as she does a good amount of working hiding them the muggle way as well, before uncorking the potion and taking a swig.
She shivered, letting the magic envelop her and she smiled, opening her eyes. "Well? What do you think?"
If she had to be honest with herself, she wouldn't really care about the scars. But scars like hers were tell-tale signs of lycanthropy. Which sucks, because she honestly hated the routine she went through to hide it all. If this helped, she would be happy.

He chuckled light when she started to speak, but alas she was distracted. Good job Severus. You were really good at this – tease a person and not let them get back at you for it – that way you win. It was perfect especially since her reaction to the potion made his heart leap out of his chest and up to his throat. It seemed she was at least somewhat happy with it. That smile was – intoxicating. He tried not to let it show on his face, but some had slipped through, the admiration of her in general.
"I think you are beautiful with or without them." His face didn't waver as he gave her the compliment, staring at her for a moment. "However, you are taking great lengths to cover up your condition, which is understandable given you'd likely be expelled if it became common knowledge. Therefore, the path of least amount of wasted energy should be taken. I can brew more so long as it will make it so that you can focus on learning this as opposed to covering them up."
He reached towards her, a hand going towards where he had seen the scar from the other day, which was on her chest, though luckily not in an inappropriate place and traced the crevice that he could feel. "These are a part of you as well. It would not do well to be ashamed of a piece of you."

Her heart and brain were going a mile a minute, heart beating a thundering rhythm in her chest as her face flushed to a dark crimson. He doesn't mean it, her brain was telling her, but her heart was telling her the opposite, especially as she gazed at the look on his face. Was that admiration? What would be her luck that this friendship was that easy? Oh, but what does it feel like they passed friendship all together and were searching for something more? Two rejected souls brought together by a mission... but he couldn't mean it. This whole thing was fake, right?
"I-" her words were caught in her throat and she closed her eyes to keep from crying. Fake or not, she had not had such kind words directed towards her that weren't from... well, Remus, or James, or Sirius (and frankly, on Sirius' behalf, he was probably just flirting with her, and Remus had none of that).
She reached for the hand which had traced the scar along her collarbone, and pressed it flat against her skin, right above her heart, wondering if he would feel the thundering rhythm of her heart. Her mind was filled with conflict. There was the Severus Snape that Remus saw, dealt with - and then there was the Severus Snape she had gotten to know in less than two days. The had given each other space this first week, after the agreement was made, given that it wasn't at all obvious to what they were doing, but now she had a giddy little fantasy pop into her head of walking to class together or walking each other to class. Maybe even spending the occasional lunch together? Shared kisses in the hall before parting for class.
Next time, she would come without them, she told herself. Finally, she looked up at him, eyes shining with dozens of emotions.
"Thank you," she said, rewarding him with another smile. "For the potion, for your words... I... just thank you."
With that she released his hand, and moved forward, hand reaching up to pull him down to her, lips meeting lips, and this kiss was different. This wasn't flirty or kind, this one was full of raw emotion, every emotion she was feeling, and couldn't voice, was put into that kiss. And for a moment, she forgot this relationship was fake.

Severus raised an eyebrow curiously, watching as she seemed to take in his words. There was a part of him that wanted her to laugh it off and say that he was just being silly – because that would be the less attractive reaction, and he would at least not go deeper into this hole he had worked himself into somehow. However, her reaction was that of someone who actually listened and was affected by it in such a way he didn't really understand – to be honest, he always had wished he could hear those types of words, which is how he came up with them – but she seemed to actually appreciate what he said. She didn't shrug it off, or just let those words go in one ear and out the other.
So, when she kissed him, at first his eyes widened in surprise, feeling the emotion coursing through her – and after a moment, responding in kind. There was something incredibly intense about this relationship – whether fake or not. There was something about her that made his knees weak – that made him truly smile. Something that made him actually feel something other than anguish. They were young – she was only doing this for her potion – and yet he couldn't help but wonder if they could stay like this forever – even if it was fake forever. He wanted this – to feel like he mattered to someone – to be loved by someone. It didn't matter if she didn't actually feel it – it felt real enough for him.
One of his hands tangled in her hair as his lips moved against hers, his tongue having a bit of fun of its own as well. However, before too long, he pulled away, staring at her and breathing heavily. "We should – We should start brewing."

Though she had started this kiss with far too much intensity than needed, he seemed to take charge this time, at least after a few moments, so much so when his tongue traced along her bottom lip asking for entrance she allowed it greedily. It was almost too much, all the sensations she was being assaulted with, but she wasn't pulling away from it either, wanting every little bit of it. Of him. Hands falling to rest flat on his chest, half a mind to grip onto the front of his robs and pull him closer.
He pulled away and dilated eyes opened slowly to stare into his, face flushed, she swallowed hard and nodded jerkily as if she was distracted by a thought but still heard him.
"R-right."
Crap. She hadn't moved away from him, her eyes searching his face for... something. What, she didn't know. At this point, she realized her reaction had been... rather odd for someone faking a relationship like this, but for a person who craved acceptance, those words had hit home, hard and true. She hadn't time to fake a reaction, so he received her true self at that moment. God did she appreciate it.
Lost, she was lost; lost to reason, lost to...just everything. It was her fault, she blurred the lines, now she didn't know where the lie began anymore. Was there even a lie anymore? There wasn't at least on her side. So, here she was, with the dilemma, a werewolf, with... a situation. The Lupinisims that had been ingrained in her mind since she was attacked rising up to tear at her with everything they had. There was no way he could actually like her. She was under his boot, just as she was everyone else, there... there was just no way.
Finally, she closed her eyes, taking a deep breath to collect herself, her frazzled nerves and her emotions before turning a smile on him. She hadn't moved away from him.
"So what's first, teach?"
She giggled lightly, almost a little breathlessly...

She didn't move away from him. Oh no. He was in it. There was something wrong – there was something very wrong. He was watching her eyes with such interest – internally freaking out – somehow, she was really great at acting – somehow despite never dating before, she knew how to look at him and make him feel loved. Feel like he belonged. Feel like he never wanted to let go and stay with her forever. How did she know just how to do all of this? She hadn't dated before – even with everything at school he hadn't heard of her dating anyone else so unless she was with some muggle boy from home, she was just as inexperienced as he was – and yet, she was doing it so perfectly.
He wondered if she had read one too many romance novels. Sense and Sensibility was one of his favorites. Especially Colonel Brandon. Maybe that was the key – act like those cheesy romantic people in those novels – and yet, it would still be fake. There was nothing he could do to do the same as she did – where was a way to invoke such emotion – fake it even though it felt so real? How did she do this?
After all, there was no way she could feel anything towards him – he was a terrible person, not handsome in the least, annoying to many, infatuated with the dark arts, and well, determined to join the death eaters despite her brother wanting the exact opposite – they were enemies in the end, and he would likely have to face her – he would rather not despite everything.
"First?" He voiced this, blinking a couple times, staring down at her, his brain trying to catch up with exactly what was going on. "First you watch me brew the potion – and – " He swallowed nervously looking at her with almost a lost look on his face. It was a bit hard to think. "Have you ever smelled Amortentia? You – you smell a lot like it to me."

She just seemed to be a natural at this, being alluring, that was. It was as if she had a charm about her that just... drew people in and once they were there, kept them there. But that couldn't be for this timeline, at least. She had read a few romance novels in her time, but she knew those were only fantasy, this was real life right now--or was it? Really? Again, lines were blurred. She swallowed hard again when his question cut through... whatever her head was doing right now.
Amortentia? But wasn't that supposed to--she didn't know how she was thinking logically at this moment, but her eyes widened. "Amortentia smells like me to you?"
She asked this, her voice a tad bit high pitched, her jaw worked. It couldn't be; that was... that was almost as a telltale sign as an autonomic response.
"I would've thought that--" she didn't dare say it. She didn't want to remind him she existed, not at this moment, when his eyes were trained on her, thoughts on her. She didn't dare.
Hope welled up in her, as the Lupinisms attempted to tear it down, apart, but she ignored it, just right now, feeling the strength to do so.
"Uhm, not... recently, at least."

Severus swallowed thickly and his eyes… well, they were trained on her – slightly dilated though he was attempting not to do that – after all this was fake and while yes, she was incredibly pretty, he couldn't let himself actually get attached to her. Truth be told – well, he was about to say it, so what was the point of thinking it even though he was about to say exactly what was on his mind.
"I – Well I believed before it was… well, you know. But… sitting here with you, I realize – well. I smelled… Chocolate – which didn't make a lot of sense – I was never very into chocolate – but I've heard a lot about how you and your brother have some sort of addiction… I mean, I thought all girls like chocolate. So… I never really connected it. Then I smelled a flower – I thought it was a lily – but – but – but well… I was ignoring exactly what flower it was because I wanted to tell myself differently – but it was a rose. And the last I could never really tell… but… well, I don't want to see creepy or anything, but you smell a lot like that last one."
His face was really red at this point and he looked away – it was true, a flower of some sort he always had thought was a lily, chocolate, and a mystery scent. He swallowed, reaching into one of his pockets of his robes, and pulled out a small glass. "It's technically illegal for me to have it – but last year Slughorn had me help him brew some for this year – for the sixth years to look at, and well, while I brewed it I nicked a vial for my own purposes – n-not that I'd use it on anyone, just – you know, experimenting."

She looked at the vial of the potion; he always seemed to have something on him. While, sure, it was illegal, it's not like he would use it. Other than this moment. She took it from him, looking at him again, for a moment before looking at it and uncorking it. She closed her eyes and inhaled.
Nothing. Her heart raced. What? Why was it nothing?
She swallowed, was his scent overpowering it or?
...No, if it had smelt like anything different, she would've picked it up easily. Werewolf, yanno. She corked it again, handing it back to him, looking up at him.
"It smelt like fresh potion ingredients... and mint, specifically... and..."
She closed her eyes again, inhaling, "whatever you use for shampoo."
Her eyes opened again, and she shyly looked at him, face a little pink.
"I..." oh, just come out with it, Lupin. The Amortentia had done most of the work here, anyway. Eyes locking firmly with him, now, knowing what she had to do at this moment, she reached out to cup his cheek.
"I want you to read my mind as I tell you this next thing, Severus. I want to come clean with you. The last several minutes, the day under the tree. I... I need you to see what I was thinking when you suggested we... start this. I..."
She dropped her hand, looking shy again, but keeping the eye contact.
"I like you, Severus... a lot. I... I don't want this to be fake."
At his choosing of diving into her mind, she would provide him with the complete reaction to his earlier words. That cute little fantasy of walking to classes together, walking each other to class... stolen kisses in the hall. The elation of him stealing her first kiss, and then her taking the second... and the fact that, from that moment on, her actions... had not been an act.

He listened to her, a lazy look on his face, while in reality his heart was beating as fast as an Avada Kadavra killed. He didn't hear the word - the key word so either she was really bad at this whole 'don't talk about it like its fake' or she was a master of some sort. Before responding he quickly pulled out his wand, casting a few spells on the door just in case – as to avoid anyone hearing or barging in. To do this he did move away from Rose for a moment and then turned towards her with a serious look on his face.
"You never said the word to be honest with each other about this. Remember? Always. That was the word we chose." While his words would convey he was slightly annoyed, his tone was more even and monotone than anything else. "I would rather you not say those types of things when we're faking – it becomes hard to tell when you're actually being honest about how you feel and what is the cover we're under."
He looks at her for a moment, a flash of pain appearing on his face before he covered it up. "While that was quite good for how this is supposed to look, I would rather you stick to the basics than say such things. It would not do well if you asked your brother to do the same – with a skilled Legilimens, you would not stand a chance and we would be discovered." Basically… he didn't want to do what she said because it would solidify that this was all fake. And his heart didn't want to know that with complete certainty for some reason despite already knowing it.
"I suppose after this you'll go to your brother and his stupid friends and laugh about how you tried to pull one over on 'Snivellus', yes? I should have known this was all a trick."

Fuck. She'd gotten all caught up in the stupid emotions that'd she completely bypassed the rule. Now she was in the thick of it. They were alone already, so it hadn't occurred to her, of course. Again, caught up in stupid emotions. Stupid, too real emotions. However, she steeled herself.
"Forgive me, for not saying the word," she supplied no excuses. "But, you thinking that I was put up to do this by my brother is exactly why I wanted to you to read my mind. I know you won't believe me unless you see it for yourself."
Her jaw worked.
"I'm not as good of an act as I always seem to be, Severus. Forgive my momentary lapse of intelligence."
