Don't mind? Of course Severus minded he didn't want his solitude broken by the likes of Peter. But did Severus tell him that he minded? Nope. He swallowed those words with an obvious gulping sound and just stared at Peter. "Since you've already seated yourself, Peter, you might as well do something productive."
There. Lily would be happy I didn't send him off like a first year Severus thought glumly to himself. Now that someone was seated next to him in his quiet area Severus knew all hope for creative thinking was lost. Instead of returning to his notes on his spell he closed that notebook and brought out his potions book. The book was a tattered ratty thing, worn and torn with overuse and age. Severus's face lit up with a small smile, the book always seemed to cheer Severus up. Although many of his year mates ridiculed Severus for not having a newer book he ignored them. It wasn't the book itself that was important, Severus opened the book and there scrawled in ink nearly faded was his mother's name, and that is what made the book important.
Being in a much more cheery mood than before he turned to Peter, "What are you studying?" Although the tone was a bit more inviting for conversation, Severus's face was not, did Severus know this? Nope. In his mind he was smiling.
