AN: A new story that is based more on humor then romance but believe there will be some lemons in the later chapters. Let me know what you think about it, I'm excited about my plot that I have.
Hermione Krum smiled up at the gates of Hogwarts and waited for the Game Keeper to open the gates for her.
"Ermione, it's 'reat to see you again." Hagrid smiled down at her as he lowered the wards. "It's a shame 'bout your divorce."
Walking through the gates she smiled back at the half giant. "It's alright, we got married when we were really young and we now know it was a mistake. So it was only a matter of time before we needed to end it."
Quickly Hagrid dropped down and hugged her. "I'm 'appy for you. Most wizards will 'ever allow a 'itch to divorce them. Welcome back Madame Granger."
Hermione smiled, "Thank you Hagrid. I will have to stop by after I get settled. I really need to talk to the Headmaster first so I can get my rooms settled."
"Of course "Ermione, stop by when you can." Hagrid shut the gate behind them.
"Have a great day Hagrid," Hermione turned and made her way to the front doors of Hogwarts. Breathing deeply she tapped the door and waited for Filch to open them.
After a few minutes the double doors opened.
"Mrs. Krum what a dreadful surprise. And where is that husband of yours?" The smooth voice of Severus Snape bellowed out.
"It's; Madame Granger or Doctor Granger, Professor I do not use Victors name anymore. And you should know where Victor is since he did use to work here and gave up the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for the last four years and has given it up so that he could move back to Bulgaria." Hermione pushed past him.
"Madame Granger I would not have expected marriage to take your manners away. They usually say being married loosens you up a bit. I wonder if the rumors about you and the books are true." Severus smirked.
"And since when did you pay any attention to rumors Professor?" Hermione glared at him, "What rumor are you talking about?"
"Normally I would not be bothered paying any attention, but this one was quite amusing. I believe it actually made me laugh." Severus began up the stairs. "Are you coming? Or are you going to settle in the Grand Hall, I doubt changing at night right here in the Hall would not give you any privacy."
"Are you going to tell me what made 'The Great Professor Snape' laugh about or are you going to keep it to yourself and use it against me later?" Hermione picked up the hem of her traveling cloak and followed Severus up the stairs. Having to jog to keep up with him and his legs took him up faster then she was use to.
"The Headmaster and McGonagall are in France until Monday so I am required to show you around. But since you have read that damn book of yours I am sure you already know where everything is." Opening the infirmary doors he walked inside. "I am sure you are familiar with this room. You were here most of your seventh year."
FLASHBACK
Hermione woke up with a moan, "What day is it?"
"Miss Granger you're finally awake. Do not try and get u. You have been asleep for the last three months." Madame Pomfrey glided over to her side. "Do you remember what happened?"
"No not really, can I sit up please." Hermione asked, her head pounding and her eyes had not had the chance to clear yet.
"I'm sorry my dear, but you need to rest."
"I have been resting for three months already. When am I going to be able to get up and go back to class?"
"That is the problem. You won't be getting up anytime soon." Poppy stood up. "You were in a horrible fight you won the fit and saved Mrs. Malfoy, but you lost the use of your legs. We have done everything to fix the break and the damage done to your spine. We haven't been able to figure out why you can't walk when there is nothing wrong with you."
Hermione's face fell, "But there must be something you can do. I can't feel my legs so there has to be something wrong with me. You're a witch do something."
"I told you Miss Granger, we have done everything we can to try and fix it. For months we have been trying new charms, spells and potions to see if anything that would work for it."
"You're not trying hard enough. You're a witch; we are in the wizarding world. I have never heard of a wizard that couldn't walk." Hermione pushed herself up in bed. "If you will allow me access to the library I will find an answer."
"How do you expect to get there? Crawl?" Professor Snape asked, walking towards the bed.
"You know, you're a real ass, of course I am not going to crawl. And why are you even here?" Hermione glared up at her Potions Professor.
"Watch your mouth Miss Granger. Just because I can not give you a detention does not mean I can not take house points. I am here because I am the only one who can brew the potions that Poppy thinks might help you." Severus crossed his arms. "Why else would I be here? I could careless about the students from another house especially a Gryffindor Know-It-All."
"Severus, that's enough. It's good to finally see you awake Miss Granger. I have ordered what muggles call a 'Wheelchair' but it won't be here till the end of the week." Dumbledore smiled. "Although we do not have the means to allow you around the school. The only places besides here would be the library, and with some help down the stairs the great hall."
"Thank you Headmaster. I wish I could spend sometime in the library soon so that I can get some books to read. Is there any way I can do that?" Hermione smiled at the Headmaster. "I will go stir crazy in here with out anything to do."
"Mr. Malfoy will be around in the morning for his rounds. If you have a book in mind let him know and I am sure he will pick it up for you." Dumbledore sat down by her feet.
"I don't believe Malfoy would actually do anything for me. I'm just a mudblood remember?"
"Draco feels really bad that he ended up taking you with him that night. He feels like part of this is his fault. He owes you a life debt Miss Granger." Severus poured himself a glass of water and brought it to his lips.
Hermione brought her tongue to lick her lips. "May I have some water please Professor?" Hermione's honey eyes met the Professor's dark brown one's.
"Your eyes are brown Professor. I always thought they were black."
Severus rolled his eyes and handed Hermione his water goblet. "I have my mother's eyes. But I don't see why it's any of your business."
Hermione took a long drink of water. "I was just surprised since they seem black when we are in class. But now that I can see them I know they are lighter. Thank you for the water Professor." Hermione yawned and placed the water on the table next to her. "When can I see Harry and Ron?"
"Tomorrow; after they are done with class. I will let them know you are awake." Dumbledore stood up. "We will take our leave now and allow you to get some rest. I will let Mr. Malfoy know that you are awake so that he can stop by. Have a wonderful night."
Severus nodded and followed the Headmaster out of the room. Looking back before quickly shutting the door.
END FLASHBACK
"I remember alright" Hermione ran her hand on the side of one of the beds. "This was where Narcissa watched me take my first steps. You were sitting in that chair making sure your potion worked with out side effects and that I was fully healed."
"So if I am correct you still owe me a debt. And it would make me your owner until I see fit to let you go." Severus sat in the black armchair that Poppy had added when Hermione was still staying at Hogwarts. "And I don't feel like freeing you anytime soon."
"I wouldn't expect you would." Hermione walked into her office and took off her cloak. "I will need to see you within the next week for your physical."
"I never get a physical. Nor will I start now." Severus stood up. "You know where your rooms are. The password is set to Hogwarts after you speak it you will be able to change it to what ever you want. Do not forget to let the Headmaster know so that he can come and get you when ever you are need. Good Evening." Severus walked out, this time he didn't look back.
Severus rubbed his head; the students were due back within the month. And he was preparing his grade books for years second through seventh years.
"Severus I would like a word with you when you have minute" Dumbledore stood in front of Severus desk. It was the same desk he had when he was in the dungeons; he had the Filch bring it to his new office.
"What can I do for you today Headmaster?" Severus asked closing his grade book and getting up.
"It has come to my attention that you've have yet to get your required physical. I am afraid that if you do not finish all the requirements before Friday, I will be forced to have Professor Potter come and teach the classes until you have done so. Thank you for your time, oh and have a great day Severus." Dumbledore waved before leaving the highly pissed Severus Snape to his own anger.
AN: I will be working on updating my "The Lies That Ties Us Together" later in the week. My muse decided to start another story before working on that one.
