Severus looked up at Harley, who was striding along the hall with a boss bitch attitude as they went into the potions classroom, sitting down and putting their combat boots on the desk.
Severus had always admired Harley, always. They were just so confident and amazing, and they spoke their mind no matter what. Sure it was a bit weird getting them as his soulmate, but, honestly, he could kind of see why.
Everyone else started getting in the classroom, then Severus scooted closer to Harley as they got their boots off of the desk when Professor Slughorn came in.
"Hello, students! As you know, just a week or so until you all get your winter break! In honour of the holiday spirit—" Professor Slughorn said.
"Holiday spirit my ass," Harley grumbled, and Severus just shrugged.
Neither of them had ever had much of a taste for the holidays, it just reminded them that they had no one else but each other. Well, Harley used to have Bellatrix, and Severus used to have Lily, but Bellatrix went off with the Dark Lord, and Severus has been constantly reminded that he ruined his chance with Lily. It didn't help that she seemed to be dating her mortal enemy, Elorie McFellon. Maybe Severus could get over her, he thought he was over her.
"You're fucking staring again, Sev," Harley whispered as they gently elbowed Sev.
Sev got out of his head and saw he had been accidentally looking at Lily, who was sitting by Elorie. Maybe he wasn't totally over it?
" — I will be allowing two of my best students to teach the class today! Harley Kelly and Severus Snape, would you please come down!" Professor Slughorn yelled.
Severus' eyes widened as everyone looked at him and Harley. Sev sent a terrified glance over to Harley, who just raised my eyebrow unamused. Harley took a deep breath and sharply exhaled as they walked down to the front, Severus following.
"Today we're doing a simple review on the drought of living death, here is the lesson plan, and I will be observing you two, good luck!" Professor Slughorn said with a smile before sitting down in his chair.
"If we're teaching, doesn't that mean I get the chair?" Harley asked.
"No," Professor Slughorn said with a smile.
Harley just gave the Professor a look before sucking in their teeth, "Aight, whatever." They said before turning to the class, Severus quickly got his things set up while they did.
"Alright bitches." Harley said to the class.
"Watch your tongue Miss Kelly," Professor Slughorn said.
"I'm agender just go with Kelly, sir, it's safest," Harley said, "Alright you hoes."
"I apologize for what I said before, but still, my point stands."
"Bastards."
"Do better, Kelly."
"Whores."
"One last chance."
Harley sharply exhaled and sucked the top of their teeth in aggravation while Severus got started on the potion, his hair falling in his eyes as he tried to peer over at what Harley was doing.
"Alright you blithering idiots," Harley said with a sarcastic smile on their face. Professor Slughorn shrugged and sat down in his chair. Severus thought that was the nicest Harley could get when talking to the class.
"Today, we'll be reviewing draught of living death," Harley said, grabbing a random knife and pointing to the board, "Do what you're supposed to do, and you don't get detention, maybe I'll walk around, maybe I won't. Work by yourself, I'm working with Snape because I'm the teacher, and I do what I want. We'll be sampling the living death, with, maybe a toad, maybe a leaf, get to work."
Severus could hear everyone shuffle around, getting out their supplies and whatnot. Severus just heard the soft clunking of Harley's combat boots hit the floor as they walked over.
"Hey," they said in a much softer tone, though, Severus was sure they could scare the bejeezus out of some of the first years, "How's the potion going, do you need help?"
"I'm good, you should do rotations," Severus mumbled quietly.
"Nah, I think I'll help you. Everyone else is a fucking mess and too damn loud," Harley said as they went over and re-read the instructions.

A few minutes later, Severus insisted that Harley go around and be a teacher, so they were —
"Putting too much in there, idiot," Harley said to a student.
— No one said they had to be nice about it.
Harley walked around, their combat boots softly clicking on the floor. They looked around and eyes green, waiting to look for someone messed up. They watched as everyone did pretty good. Maelyn could be doing better, but Harley didn't feel like insulting her. Harley looked over and found Hel dripping some substance into the potion, and decided that insulting her would be so much fucking fun.
"I don't think that's in the fuc-" Harley heads the Professor clear his throat, "the instructions, Lokidottir."
Hel just sneered, "It's going to make my potion a lot better with just a little bit of an extra ingredient. Plus I'm sure you know what this is unless going to Asgard taught you nothing."
Harley just shook their head and walked away, they could insult Hel later, probably before bed, but later.
Harley looked over at the Hufflepuff corner, goody two shoes were at it again, being Hufflepuffs. Then the Ravenclaw smart-asses being smart-asses, nothing interesting there. Lacey looked bored and was probably slacking, but the damn boy had seen way more interesting potions, so it made sense, in a way. If the dude's potion ended up bad, Harley could insult him and give him a bad grade, so all was well.
Harley mentally prepared themself to slap a bitch as they went over to the Gryffindor side. The stupid Marauders seemed to not be slacking, sure the rat-the Pettigrew was fumbling like a dumbass, but Lupin was right next to him, so Harley knew they, unfortunately, couldn't fail him. The Potter girl was by Lupin, her potion looked nasty, and not the good kind of nasty, she better up her game or Harley was going to give her a really bad grade. Being a teacher was pretty fucking fun when you got to fail little bitches.
Harley stole a quick glance over to where Lily and Elorie were. They were both doing decently, whenever McFellon needed help, Evans was right there. Harley just sighed through their nose, Sev had better get over Lily fast. Harley already had a broken-hearted (adorable) puppy on their hands, they didn't need for him to be jealous of a freaking daredevil too!
Harley groaned, did they really think Sev was cute? Did they? It was probably everyone's holiday spirit messing with their head. All the happiness and lights and, blergh, people. Yeah, it had to be messing with their brain.
"Have you seen anyone fail yet?" Severus asked quietly, they were almost done with their potion.
Harley dropped a few ingredients in and let it simmer, "Dunno, I was hoping to fail Pettigrew, but with Lupin helping him, he may just be able to pass."
"And McFellon?" Severus asked.
Harley licked their lips in aggravation before crossing their arms, "Let's go get some fresh flowers, to drop them in the living death," Harley growled, as they went behind the board to get some pretty lilies to drop in. Severus following after them.
"Sev, you really need to get over Lily, it's not good, and that's coming from me," Harley said as they grabbed a glass full of fresh lilies, "It's not even a crush anymore, I really think it's an obsession."
"Why are we using lilies?" Severus asked.
"To help you get over the redhead, plus, we've got bigger problems on our hands. Might as well have you Lily-free," Harley said, "While everyone's buzzing with the holiday spirit, how about we go and find out more about the Dark Ones. I'd love to be able to use them to suck someone's happiness out, alright? Plus I'm sure your Death Eater friends wouldn't want you obsessing over a muggle-born. Okay? Let's go out there and kill some lilies."
Harley felt like they were talking to a seven-year-old rather than a seventeen-year-old. How come they had gotten so soft around Severus? Why would they? Harley sighed before having a cold sheet of ice fall over them again, regaining their composture. Maybe they'd mull over it later over a fairytale. They had to kill some lilies and hopefully fail some kids.
Question For Your OC: What's their "signature gift"?
Hel's would be jewellery and books, it's her go-to!
