A/N: You know, I think I wrote a fic with a title similar to this one last Valentine's Day. Strange that of all the HP characters I would pick him for this holiday. lol Anyway just a short and I hope somewhat funny story (I hope). Enjoy!
Oh, I would say it is an "Other." What do you think?
Severus looked at the poor sod sitting in a wooden chair in the corner of his laboratory, where Severus had banished him after his constant sneezing ruined one of the more temperamental potions brewing. The man was really rather pathetic looking.
“You know, you could just see Poppy about this and leave me alone.” He scowled at his colleague and rolled his eyes as the man tried to answer in between sneezes. “I know, I know, you don’t want her to know.”
He turned back to his cauldron and noticed from the ginger color that the potion was once again perfect. He carefully measured exact doses and placed them into vials, not allowing the distress of the other man to hurry his movements. When completely done, he put the other vials into storage, before turning to the small man.
Severus watched as he gratefully swallowed the potion. Instantly the sneezing stopped, leaving the slightly flushed and extremely worn out Charms master slumped against his chair.
“I do hope you aren’t planning on spending your evening here. I do have work to do. I can’t spend my whole evening ensuring you can breathe. I’ve spent enough time on that as it is.”
“Severus have you ever been in love?”
He had already turned back to the potion Filius had destroyed earlier, checking to see if it could be salvaged. Without looking up, he sneered.
“No, but if I had allergies like yours, I’d be damned if I picked a Herbologist to start with.”
He heard the sigh and wondered if he would now be subjected to one of the older man’s nearly monthly lectures on love, but it seemed that for once, luck was with him.
“Good day, Filius,” he said in dismissal.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, Severus.”
Happy Valentine's Day (or Singles Awareness Day, whichever you celebrate) everyone! love, Sprinkles

And how fitting that we see stubborness from both Professors. Filius for not wanting to go to Poppy and Severus for taking his time with the bottles instead of giving the first vile to Filius and being rid of him sooner. lol.
I'm glad you liked Sev. Thanks for reading this and for your V-Day present to us all (well all of us that are 17 at least)!
