Potions and a wee bit of love
1.
That day, a young 22 year old girl was sitting in the park. Her long curled chocolate brown hair was living its own life along with the wind breeze. She was sitting on the grass, under the very old oak tree, her eyes hidden under the big sunglasses. It could look like she was daydreaming.
Indeed, she was. Maybe not dreaming, but thinking about her day-to-day life. Now, when the Big Battle was over, when the Bright Side of Magic won, and Dark Lord was dead, every magical creature could think about their happiness. The peace has ruled the world.
Oh, didn't I mentioned that our girl was a witch? No. Apologies. Yes, she was, or she is a witch. And not any unknown witch, but I think one of the very good known. That's all because of her friendship with the Boy-Who-Lived-To-Save-Us. And there is few more reasons. For example she was the one of biggest minds of School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Hogwarts. Every exam she took, gave the high results. Now, every door to any carrier was opened, for her. Every respectful company in the magic world had send the request, if she could join them and help the magic world be better. Even the Ministry of Magic had their propositions for her.
But for the sake of her dream, she denied all of the propositions, even the one from Minister of Magic. She had the dream. Okay, she had two dreams in particular, but the one that she could manage was nearly completed. Lets start form the end of the Battle, the beginning of happy and peaceful life.
After the Battle was over, all 7th years from Hogwarts, that took part in the war, could finish their exams over the summer holidays. So our witch, took the chance that was given to them, and she returned to school for 2 long months of study, along with her friends, Harry and Ron, she did finish. After the exam results came back, they went separate ways. Harry Potter also known as the Boy-Who-Won-The-One-Who's-Name-Shouldn't-Be-Named, got the job in the aurors office and now is one of the best in the position. Her second best friend, Ronald Wesley got in to the English Representation of Quidditch, on a keeper position, and believe or not he is the best!
For Hermione, the good times only begins. After her high results came back, she did apply for the London University of Magic, in the Potions School. The Headmaster was very pleased to accept her on 4 year course. The three years passed so quickly that she didn't even noticed. Now she did finished her summer exams, with only one ting left to do. The 4th year of study was all depended on her. As Potions Mistress-to-be she had to find one Potion Master that already is in the position and politely ask him or her, if she could stay one year for independent practice. The Potion Master(because there was more men than women) should teach her how to be good in the position they are holding, and also how to teach the potions subject in school.
She asked her lecturer at LUM for the list of available Potions Masters. How she was shocked when at the top of the list she saw her ex-professor of Potions from Hogwarts. It meant that he was the best. But after all this years of laughing at every Griffindor student, and taking away all the points that she gained, she didn't want to have anything in common with this old Git of her professor. But her ego and pride was a little bit hard on her. She wanted to be the best. She decided that her Mentor has to be the best. From that view she didn't had a choice.
-Maybe after all these years he changed?- That was the only one positive thought stuck in her head.
-I have no choice. Damn. I'll have to overcome my pride and write this letter.
And she did. This afternoon she sent the owl with the letter to her ex-professor Severus
Snape, her Mentor-to-be.
-That was the one time only. Never again.
She stood up and went in the direction of her apartment thinking about a cup of hot chocolate and a warm bath.
