Title: Unseen Lovers
Rating: T
Pairing: Hermione/Snape
Disclaimer: I own nothing from Harry Potter. If I owned Harry Potter and I do not, Ron and Ginny would have either never existed or died. Also Hermione would have ended up with either Harry, Draco, Blaise, Cedric, or young Tom Riddle.
Summary: Severus Snape and Hermione Granger appear to despise the other to the outside world. Alone together they are completely different. Her friends would never understand so they hid from the public eye.
AN: This story is dedicated to my cousin Linda. I really hope that she likes it alot. She comes up with crazy pairings. I have read Severus/Hermione before but I never thought that I would ever be writing it!
AN2: Obviously its AU. I also made it so that yes Dumbledore is dead but he was killed by Draco and not Snape. Please R&R like always!

I'll put a spell on you
You'll fall asleep
When I put a spell on you
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see
And you'll realize that you love me
Yeah
Ye-ah
Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes
But I know that waiting is all you can do
Sometimes

Hermione's Pov:
"You could stay a little longer if you wished to." His long narrow fingers grasped my arm at the elbow. His dark chocolate eyes gave me a look of desperation. The battle against Voldemort was fast approaching and now that Dumbledore was dead there was a surge of fear that the light would loose.
"You know that I can't. They will be worrying about me like they always do." I didn't need to say that Ron would be wondering where I was. Saying his name would not have been wise. My lover didn't really care for Ron. It wasn't just because Ron had a crush on me either. He thought that Ron was a moronic git as he often called him in class. "Plus Harry needs me to research some more to see if I can learn anything else about the Horcru-" I never got finish what I was saying because his lips crashed on top of mine. I think he just wanted to shut me up. Often times if he did not like the direction that a conversation was headed he would cut it off before it had a chance to really get started.
The only time that I could escape that fate was when we were in class. He couldn't very well snog me senseless with the whole student body watching now could he? Well he was the Headmaster now so technically he controlled the rules, so I suppose that he could actually snog me right in the middle of the Great Hall if he wanted to. He never would though. He said that what we had together was no one elses concern. I beleive he is worried that the Death Eaters will find out about us and i will have a tragic death just like his first love Lily Evans-Potter.
"They can handle one night without you Ms. Granger." His tone of voice was more comanding if anything. He wasn't asking me he was telling me. "Stay with me tonight my sweet Hermione." He whispered into my hair as his hands traveled my waist.
"I can't Severus and you know that. Harry needs me right now with the war so close and-" I tried to pull out of his grasp because I couldn't think clearly when he was around me. His scent made my brain go fuzzy with static. I needed to think and he was making it impossible. He made me want to stay but I knew that was not an option.
"I need you more than he does right now Ms. Granger." Now to the average person you would think that was a blatant sexual remark yet it was not. Severus Snape was not a perverted man unless he wanted to be and I could tell that was not his goal in this moment.
I knew what he meant to say straight away. The nightmares were back and getting worse. Severus suffered from extremely horrid and frightful nightmares. Sometimes they were about watching Lily die and other times they were memories of punishments he recieved from Voldemort. More recently they had been of me. He would wake up in a cold sweat screaming my name. It always took hours to get him calm afterwards. Every time that he closed his eyes he seemed to be haunted by death.
"I have to be back in the common room by 5 in the morning do you promise to wake me up and not let me sleep in no matter how much I complain?" I tried to sound annoyed but I was unable to pull it off with a straight face. I could complain all I wanted yet I was happy that he wanted me to stay. Truth was that he was not the only one suffering from nightmares. They plagued me every time that I could manage to fall asleep. Being with him at night was the only time I ever got a peaceful sleep and I knew it was the same for him.
"As you wish." He said with a small smile that was only ever shown in my presence. Everyone else beleived that he could not smile. He took my hand and led me towards the bed and wrapped his arms around me as we fell asleep together. We didn't need anything more right now. Having eachother was enough but would we always have eachother? With Voldemort on the loose I was unsure.
TBC..
AN: This story will be three short chapters and all the chapter will be up tonight I hope. It will be like Three one-shots but they all revolve around the same thing and kind of like a short story because they go in order. So what did you think?
