A/n: I do not own anything that comes from the Harry Potter books, only made-up characters and most ideas. I got this idea from reading other fan fictions but I've put little twists on somethings. This will be rated M for many reasons, for there will be sexual situations, violence and things of that nature. I will warn you all in each chapter if something of that nature will happen. This is will be mostly about Hermione and Snape but there might be tidbits about other couples.

Summary:
Hermione suddenly disappears during christmas of her 6th year. She never told anyone where she was going, not even Harry or Ron knows. Come find out if she had a reason why she left. Sorry I'm really bad at writing summaries! ALSO: Does not support DH, somethings might be the same but not much of it, for Severus will not die and Dumbledore is still alive! There might be some spoilers so you are warned now!

A/n: This is my first fanfic so please be nice and give it a chance. I'm trying to write this ship for the first time also. Might start off slow but should pick up, if you have any ideas that you think will be good or that, just send an email or a review with the ideas and I'll see what I can do.

Dear Professor:
I'm writing this to let you know that I am safe at home, but I am sadden to let you know that I can not accept the HeadGirl badge, and I'm not sure if I'll be returning to Hogwarts for my 7th year. Sorry to let you know this in a letter and not in person.
Hermione Granger

Miss Granger:
I'm saddened to hear that you will not be returning to Hogwarts for your last year. May I ask why you will not be returning? For if I maybe able to help I will come and talk to your parents if that is the reason. But I'm also informing you that the HeadGirl badge is still being held for you, if you feel like returning to us.
Professor Dumbledore

Professor:
No its not my parents, its that I decided that I can not come back. I feel its not right if I do. I will explain if you will stop by tomorrow morning around 9 for some tea and I will explain. If that does not work just let me know and we can reschedule.
Hermione Granger

Miss Granger:
No tomorrow will work, I'll see you at 9!
Professor Dumbledore

Hermione just sighed as she looked at the last note and then up the hallway. She didn't know if she would even be allowed to go back to Hogwarts once the Professor finds out why she left so early last year. She then decided to just straighten up her house for the visit tomorrow.

FLASH BACK!

Hermione was sitting in her potions class, just watching her professor lecture about the love potions. She let her mind wander about how did she get lucky enough to catch the professors eye. They had started alittle relationship near the end of her 5th year, though they made sure to keep it a secret for so long. For teacher/student relationships were not allowed, and both could get into so much trouble. Once he gave them what they were supposed to do for the rest of the class, and they all started to get busy he looked up and looked at Hermione. He smiled as he watched her work, her thirst for knowledge seemed so much like him at the age that he could not start to like her. He watched her for a few more moments so lost in thought he didn't realize that she looked up at caught him looking at her till he just blinked. She smiled at him and then went back to doing her work.

He had to fight a smile from coming to his lips, for he was remembering the nights that they were in his private chambers just debating different topics. He loved her passion for what she believed in. He then scowled at her friends that were sitting next to her, Harry Potter and Ron Weasly. Many would have thought she would be dating on of them by now, but they only saw her as a 'one of the guys'. He was sure that they didn't see her as a female they could date, sure one they could shag but not one that could have a relationship with.

END OF FLASH BACK!
