I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER. J.K. ROWLING DOES SO HUSH AND READ!

It was a dreary misty day out when Hermione look through her window. It was her last day at home before she went back to Hogwarts. Hermione stretched, yawned, and then slowly made her way to the bathroom. The cool tile tickled her feet as she entered and looked into the mirror. She knew her friends would be quite shocked at the changes she had gone through over the summer. She was going into her 7th year and she had finally outgrown the bushy hair and buck teeth. She also had acquired some womanly assets since last year. Now Hermione's hair hung in soft light brown waves over her shoulders and her figure resembled that of an hour glass.

Hermione turned the shower on as hot as it would go and gingerly took off her night clothes and steppped in. The hot water woke her out of her sleep induced grooginess. Hermione started to shampoo her hair when thoughts of Hogwarts started to drift through her mind. What if Harry and Ron don't like my changes she worried. what if they want old bucked tooth brianiac Hermione back? She shook away these thoughts. I will have a fantastic final year at Hogwarts, she scolded herself as she reached for the conditioner.

It was another bustling day at Hogwarts. The sun was shining, the students would be coming back today, and Severus Snape was not pleased. Severus scowled at the glittery eyed headmaster as he swept into the dungeons, his dungeons. The giddy bastard smiled at him and said, "How are you today Severus?"

He gave him a scowl in return and answered, "Why don't you just skip the pleasantries and tell me why you really came down to see me." Severus noticed the headmasters glittering eyes flicker for a moment. Albus then nodded and spoke.

"Severus, I am ordering you to take on an apprentice." The headmaster mentally prepared himself for the imminent argument. When none came he looked back at the Potions Master only to find him scratching his chin, eyes cast downward in thought.

"I see," Severus mused. "It would make my burden a bit easier to bare. They could prepare the potions for the infirmiry while I work on that ...research you asked me about." Severus finally met the Headmaster's gaze. "But who?" he asked the old wizard.

"Well now Severus, who's your top student?" Dumbledore's eyes glittered fiercly in amusement at the Potion Master look of pure horror.

"No!"

Well now, Severus dosn't seem to happy eh? I'd apreciate your thoughts and any critisism is welcome. This is my first Fic sooo...yeah. lol
