Hi there, I just finished writing this and I'm not sure it's good so please, please, please review! It's just something that came into my mind an hour ago and I decided to write it down.
To those who read my other stories - I will not continue Our love is the real thing (at least not at the moment) but I'm almost finished with the next chapter of Appearances, thanks for your patience.

Hermione laughed happily as she made her way through the room. She moved to the bar and smiled flirtily at the man behind the bar, before sitting down on a bar stool.
"What can I get for you, lovely witch?" The barman asked.
"A Bloody Mary, please." She winked playfully at him, before looking up and down.
"Are you alright, Miss?," the man asked gently.
"Yes, of course! I've never been better! I'm perfect," Hermione declared loudly.
"Okay, I believe you," he replied sceptically and went to make her drink.
"I really am fine!," she called after him.
The music was loud and the place crowded. If you tried, you could feel the beat of the music through your body. Everyone was drinking a lot, while still being sober enough to behave themselves. The temperature was pefect, it was hot enough for the women to wear nothing but very thin vests. People were still entering the club, even though time was approaching 3 a.m. It was the ultimate Saturday night.
Hermione looked around the room. There were quite a few good looking men, some of them gestured for her to come over. She tried to wave back but ended up on the floor instead. The second after she had got up on the chair, the barman appeared with the drink.
"Thanks!" Hermione smiled sweetly and drank half the drink in a few seconds.
"It's free for you, Miss."
"Why, thanks a lot!" She downed the other half. "Do you have something strong...ah stronger than this? It's my first drink tonight..." Her seductive smile made the barman want to satisfy her wishes.
"In a moment, Miss." He did not believe her, yet he found her so pretty that he could not refuse her anything.
Some thirty minutes later, Hermione was dancing like crazy on the dance floor. She felt amazing. In fact, she had never felt this good before. It was as though all her problems had vanished.
She was dancing rather close with a very handsome young man. He was pulling her top off her shoulders, exposing her white bra. As she was so caught up in the dance, she did not notice a familiar man approaching her.
"Miss Granger," a deep voice said, patting her on the shoulder.
Hermione turned around and faced the one who was interrupting a most enjoyable dance.
"Professor! Why don't you join us?," she exclaimed brightly and put her arms around his neck, moving along with the music.
The dark eyes of Severus Snape looked at her in astonishment before he opened his mouth.
"Miss Granger, you are to come with me immediately!," Snape hissed into her ear, dragging her off the dance floor. She grabbed a drink on the way out but her teacher grabbed it out of her hand.
The bartender walked towards them, holding something in his hand.
"Miss, you forgot your purse!," he called after them.
"Thank you," Snape muttered and jerked the purse from the bartender. "Fix your clothes for God's sake!" He had a hard time keeping his eyes off her cleavage.
"Why? I'm feeling so good, professor!"
Snape cursed inwardly and straightened Hermione's clothes so that they covered her bra.
When they had exited the club, Snape pressed a vial to her mouth.
"For the alcohol," he muttered.
Hermione drank it and smiled confidently at him.
The professor waited a few seconds before speaking.
"What the hell were you doing in there, Miss Granger?," he bellowed.
"Let's go have some fun, professor," she tittered. "Let's go back inside, I want another drink."
Snape looked thoughtfully at her for a moment before coming to a conclusion.
"Miss Granger, have you accepted a drink from someone else than the bartender tonight?"
"No. Let's go back in, Sir. I wanna dance!" Hermione moved her hips slightly.
"Have you accepted a cigarette from someone else?" Snape locked his eyes with hers.
"No, I always bring my own. Ah...I feel so good, professor! This night's perfect, isn't it?"
Snape opened her purse, without feeling the slightest bit of guilt. He found a small bottle of scotch, a lipgloss, some galleons and a plastic bag that looked suspicious.
As he emptied the plastic bag on the ground, he let go of her. Hermione fell to the ground the second time that evening. She laughed heartily as she sat up.
The Head of House quickly scanned through the contents. He found some white pulver, a couple of small paper sheets and a lighter.
"We have to go back to Hogwarts, Miss Granger. Please try to stay calm," Snape ordered.
Almost an hour later they reached the gates of Hogwarts. Hermione had falled over several times along the way and Snape was getting rather tired of her. He brought her to his office and ordered her to sit down. In the meantime he fetched an antidote from his personal stock.
"Drink this." Snape commanded and handed her a small vial.
Hermione obeyed and downed the liquid in one gulp. After a minute or so her eyes widened in realisation. She looked from her professor's stern face to her open purse on his desk.
"Would you care to explain what you were doing at the Black Lion at this hour? Alone. Smoking cannabis. Drinking alcohol. The last time I checked, it wass strictly forbidden for students to go to Hogsmeade during evenings, unless they are granted a special permission. I am surprised at your lack of judgement, Miss Granger."
"I'm so sorry, Sir. It won't happen again," Hermione said with a trembling voice.
"I do not believe it was your first time. Tell me all about it and you may not get expelled."
"Expulsion?" She was gobsmacked. "Please, Professor Snape, I'll tell you everything if you will just let me stay, please, Sir!".
Snape almost enjoyed seeing her this helpless.
"Miss Granger, you have to understand that you have broken several rules. You are no longer Head Girl," he announced. "However, I could reconsider the reasons for your expulsion if you tell me the entire story."
"Fine. I'll tell you everything," Hermione said despondently.
