Ch.1
" Two in a group, Potter- Bullstrode, Weasley- Malfoy, Brown-zabini" Severus Snape read on until a small hand raised up into the air, not bothering to take his eyes off the page.
" Yes Miss Granger is there a problem?" he asked in almost a bored tone.
" Sir, I .. I don't have a partner" she said, and looking around the room, he noticed that indeed she was right. " Fine, I'll over see your work" He glided over and sat next to the girl. As Snape watched her work, he noticed she seemed awfully familiar with the potion.. odd, he also noticed the technique she used while making it. as if every move was life or death. He respected her with that, that was until she dropped an extra mandrake leaf into the solution. "idiot girl!" he spat angrily " Now look what you've done, the potion is ruined and your grade has just dropped severely", it felt good to catch the know-it-all doing something wrong. But the feeling didn't last long because she promptly hushed him " Calm down! look I can fix it." she pulled out a bottle of sandalwood chips dropping exactly 3 in, and turning the potion counterclockwise for 32 seconds. Again the mixture turned a glowing green. He hated everything about that smug look on her face, he couldn't let her speak to him like that. " 30 pts and Detention Miss Granger" Snape hissed into her ear, Hermione turned and glared at him, unknowingly counting all the emotions she saw. 'Anger? oh yes plenty of that, amazement? wow there's something new. ... and what's that, I can't tell'
Poor Snape knew he was being examined and he couldn't break her gaze. It was like looking into molten chocolate. Her eyes sucked him in. The bell rang and snapped them both out of it. Hermione hurried out afraid to loose any points for " staring at the professor".
The Day ended to quickly for both of them, Hermione arrived at 8:00 pm to find Snape hovering over a caldron twice his size . " Come here and stir this clockwise for 10 minutes." she went over picking up a large spoon and dipped it in. A huge puff of smoke filled the room. He immediately realized what had happened and what to do. Cursing loudly he yelled " Its poisonous! come on" he grabbed her around the waist and dragged her into a small vented chamber. Coughing and sputtering they sat down on the mattress which graced the cold floor. It was completely dark except for the moonlight streaming through one of the vents. " It locks from the inside, Miss Granger. We're stuck until Mcgonagall does bed check" hermione groaned loudly muttering " No.."
blinking he asked " what?" " the professor and I have sort of an agreement." she stopped " go on" " i usually stay in the library after hours, so she doesn't check my bed anymore." He glared in the general direction of her, because it was to dark to actually see. " So we're stuck until someone notices your gone?!" he growled angrily. She paused " wont someone miss you at breakfast?" " I don't eat breakfast, you should know that... or are you to wrapped up in your life to notice others" her jaw dropped " well i wouldn't know, because i don't eat breakfast either professor." she replied curtly, an awkward silence passed. Hermione took a breathe " So.." she started " so what?" " never mind". They sat in silence for more than an hour before Snape took over the mattress. practically pushing her off. " Hey!" she yelled " What?! it's my dungeon" he said reasonably. stretching out and looking comfortable. By now their eyes had gotten use to the dark. she moved off into the cold floor angry and spiteful " greasy git" he rolled over on to his side, facing away from her and yawned " I heard that, 5 pts from Gryffindor". Hermione grumbled and laid down. thinking horrible curses she'd like to use on him. She fell asleep with a slight smirk on her face.
