Work Text:
Peeking through the window of the house in Spinner’s End Severus sees y/n walking extremely slowly. Well, it’s not like she has always been fast when it comes to walking, she is always huffing and complaining at the long legs his boyfriend Severus has but this time is different.
“Why is this silly girl going so slow under the rain?” he whispered, taking into the form of your clothes getting more wet with each passing second.
He gently massaged his temples but a small and faint smile appeared on his lips because he knew what would come first: your pouty lips ordering him to take care of you or otherwise you would get sick.
And she knew that Severus would do it over and over again.
You, on the other hand, were enjoying how the rain was pouring over you. So fresh, so different, it was a moment you took to sort your thoughts while coming back home but you took your sweet time knowing that Severus would scold you for a few minutes and then he would concede to your requests of taking care of you.
Before you could raise your hand to knock on the door it opened slowly, revealing the form of your boyfriend wearing a serious expression on his face.
You quickly got on your tiptoes to place a kiss on his lips but he grabbed both of your wrist to stop you from doing that.
“You silly girl” he said looking at you raising his eyebrow “What do you think you are doing? Come inside now”
He pushed you inside and closed the door leaving you all wet in the middle of the living room.
“How many times have I told you to stop behaving like a child and act like a woman of your age?”
There he goes, lecturing you once again about your behavior but you knew that he didn’t really mean that. The reason? He was almost, almost smirking. You knew him too well. If he was serious he would be crossing his arms and looking at you without even flinching but he wasn’t.
That’s why you took the opportunity to try to run to his arms to make his clothes wet as well.
“Don’t you dare or you will sleep on the sofa” He walked backwards raising his fingers towards you trying to look scary.
“It will be you who will be sleeping on the sofa if you don’t help me with these wet clothes. I need to get some dry ones and perhaps… a bath?”
And there it was, your pouty lips looking at him knowing he wouldn’t say no.
And of course, Severus sighed, feeling defeated, unable to fight your charms.
“Wait here.” he simply said and he went upstairs.
After a few minutes he carried you to the bathroom in a bridal style, slowly taking off your wet clothes and tossing them on the floor.
He prepared a warm bath for you, full of bubbles and a hint of lavender, exactly as you liked it. You giggled knowing you won this time and he just shook his head, still silent but a smile plastered on his face as he finished undressing you.
You got into the bath closing your eyes at the feeling of the warm water soothing your skin and the feeling of Severus hands combing your hair.
After a few minutes basking into each other's presence and the silence he placed a kiss on the top of your head, whispering softly.
“You will be the death of me, but please, don’t be so foolish to put on risk your health”
You nodded slowly, feeling sleepy and promising him that it will be fine as far as he is there to take care of you.
