Disclaimer: I actually own nothing, unfortunately. All I own is the situation, but it is not for sale and I am making no money from it whatsoever. I wrote this for my own twisted amusement.
A/N: So I decided to continue on, but realize one thing, each chapter will switch between Severus and Hermione's view about the situation.I finished my potion early again, it was just a simple antidote which was to be of our choice, and I decided to make the most difficult one. I remember when Snape had to make a cauldron full back in second year, when some of the muggleborns were petrified, me included. I decided to make that exact antidote, and since it was double potions, I would finish it in time. I bottled it up, and put my name on it before I gave it to him. Severus Snape. I won't even start about my liking for him. I just love his mysterious ways.
I started putting my ingredients away, Malfoy came up beside me. I tried to avoid him but he was right there. He leaned into my ear and whispered one thing, "Your parents died one year ago at the hand of my father." I was shocked. I whipped around, knocking my half full cauldron. Unwanted tears were welling up in my eyes. Then next thing I know I hear, "Miss Granger! Detention tonight!" I fought back tears.
"Yes, sir..." Was all I could respond. I already knew it was after dinner and to definitely not be late. I cleaned up the spilt potion with a simple spell then finished cleaning my area. When I finished, I sat down between Ron and Harry.
"Everyone bottle up your potions and put them on my desk. Clean up you filthy messes!" Professor Snape barked at us. I stayed with Harry until he had to clean his cauldron, then I sat as far away from Malfoy as possible, but close to my saviour, Snape. "May I ask you why you are sitting here Miss Granger?" Snape asked.
I couldn't say that I wanted to be by my saviour, so I simply replied, "I just trying to get away from Malfoy, sir." The bell rang and I slowly got up, Harry and Ron were rushing me but I didn't care. I gave Snape a glance of trust then left the room. Ron and Harry had NEWT-divination, but I had NEWT-ancient runes. Thankfully after ancient runes it was NEWT-transfiguration, last period of the day, and with no Malfoy. Ancient runes and transfiguration went by extremely slow. I didn't know the exact reasoning behind it though. Then dinner came, we got pasta. I love pasta; I am excellent at making it and even better at eating it. I started to eat really fast, I wanted to prepare for my detention with Snape, I began to wonder... should I even call it a detention, I mean I should call it 'Time to spend with my hero," rather than detention. But then again, I am a crazy Head Girl after all. I finished eating and left, I was first to leave the Great Hall, but I knew it was almost then end of it. I quickly went to my rooms and grabbed a bottle labelled, 'Incase of Emergencies.'
I went into the bathroom and put it into my hair, after about a minute of rubbing the solution in, my hair was perfect. It looked marvellous. I then took some good old muggle eyeliner, and applied it all around my eyes. After I approved my own look, I knew that Snape would love it too. I started to walk down to the dungeons, realizing that I was already late. I walked up to his office doors and simply knocked three times. "Enter," came from within, I slowly opened the door and walked in to find Dumbledore there along with Snape. "You're late, Miss Granger." Snape could be a real jerk sometimes.
"This is where I take my leave." Dumbledore stated. "Once again, good luck." Albus looked at Snape, and I myself was completely confused, he then left, and I was really feeling bad about being late.
"I'm sorry, sir. I was quite busy." I responded to Snape's comment earlier. I saw him look at me and raise an eyebrow. I wanted to look away and flush but I couldn't, I just held it in.
"As I can tell by your appearance." Snape said, making me blush. He then took that as a type of hint or something. "Hermione."
I looked up into his eyes, when he said my name I heard heaven. I went over to him and hugged him; I then began to cry into his chest. I didn't hear what he said exactly, but it sounded like a question, after he took my chin in his hand I knew he wanted to know what the matter was. I looked at him through my teary eyes.
"Draco reminded me that my parents were killed exactly a year ago, to this day. And he told me by whom." I stifled. "He told me it was his father, and we all know his father is now dead as well." I began to cry again against my will. Snape held me close as I bawled onto his shoulder. He was saying something to me, but it was muffled through everything, but it still made me feel better.
It took a full five minutes to calm down from the event; well actually I just didn't want to leave his grasp. Severus then backed away and looked at me. I was feeling completely exhausted. I guess crying does that to a person. He picked me up, and I wrapped my arms around him and closed my eyes. When I felt like we stopped moving, I opened my eyes to see we were on a couch in a room that I never seen before. I was on top of Severus and he just held me. I could barely hold the tension between up, I want to do something, but I didn't know what to do. I finally decided to kiss him. I am regretting that all I gave him was a small kiss, our tongues didn't even touch. But that was because I was completely exhausted. The last thing I saw before drifting off into a sleep was a rare smile on Severus' face.
A/N: Yeah it is somewhat short, but that's because I am not great at Hermione's POV... oh well, I will get better. Well thanks for the reviews from the previous chapter. Wowie. This is probably my most popular story yet. As you can tell I take suggestions from my reviewers. So if you would like to see something in future chapters, then just say so in a review. And yes I decided this to be a bit longer, but I don't know how much longer though. Also, remember, I wrote this chapter in a day, so expect daily updates of this story if I get the evil Plot Bunnies! XD
