Valentines Flowers
Every year since I started teaching at Hogwarts the year after the final battle on Christmas I get a present and flowers on Valentine's Day. They are always sent with the same trademark of a green ribbon with a new charm for a bracelet they gave me. I have no idea who it is but I hope it to not be a student, especially a younger one.
I'm worried because today is Valentine's Day and I hate to admit this but I look forward to it even though it has only been 2 years and I'm worried it will not happen this year they will have moved on or I will never find out who it is. This year I have received an invitation to finally meet this mystery admirer.
I have narrowed it down to being a Slytherin because of the Slytherin green ribbon, is at least an upperclassman because these gifts are quite expensive and they would not have been able to afford at a younger age and third year and below were not here.
As much as I wish it would be the Head of Slytherin House, Severus Snape I know it would never be considering his hatred for me and inability to see me as an equal and not a student. No matter what I do he will not see me as the little first year know it all who could never keep her hand down.
I'm almost to the astronomy tower where the note said to meet. When I reach the staircase I see white twinkling lights leading the way. At the top of the stairs I see the tower now has a table set up with candles all over. I look around trying to find this mystery man. I finally spot a shadow in the corner.
"Hello," I call. The figure slowly starts to walk into the light and I gasp when I see who it is.
"Hello Hermione," none other than Severus Snape says.
"Severus, you are my secret admirer?" I ask shocked.
He smiles a little nervously, "Yes, I hope you aren't too disappointed that it's me or disgusted. You probably think I'm a dirty old man. I knew I never should have done this it will only end in disaster."
"Severus," I say silencing him, "I think none of that. I was actually hoping it was you but I never thought you would think of me in that way."
"So you feel the same way for me?" He questions.
"Of course I do Severus," I respond, "I have been in love with you since the war. You are one of the bravest men I know and I fell deeper with every gift I received praying they were from you. I love you Severus Snape and I always will."
He smiles a brilliant smile, "I love you too, Hermione Granger." He then gave me a passionate kiss.
"Wow, the so called bat of the dungeons smiling a brilliant smile and in love with the know it all Gryffindor bookworm? Who would have guessed?" I tease and go in for another kiss.
Please review and if you are interested in betaing for me let me know! I would really appreciate it. Also PM me if you have any story or pairing requests.
