Forgot to say before the first. I own nothing. Try and guess the songs. Reviews please and advice always. Let me know if you want another chapter or I might give up if no one is enjoying it. Thank you for the reviews they were lovely. I shall try and get another chapter up before the end of the week
Chapter 2
"Ok , here goes nothing," Hermione thought to herself. Not only was she now arriving late to potions but with her completely new look. Overnight she'd gone from cute and sweet to borderline trashy. "Oh yes, just perfect," her inner voice rationalised, "He'll notice you now. If not just because you look like a stripper." Hermione shook her head desperate for the voice to shut up before she lost her nerve and ran all the way back to Gryffindor Tower.
She looked herself over again in the mirror at the end of the corridor before entering. She'd straightened and dyed her hair a darker brown, her skirt so short it just about covered the essentials, her shirt was too tight, her shoes too high and her robes barely covering anything. That along with the excessive make up she'd applied was definitely going to make sure she was noticed.
She took a deep breath and entered. Sure enough every male eye in the room was looking at her all except for one – Snape. "Good Lord what do I have to do?" She internally screamed, "Why won't he notice me!" After this she spent the rest of the lesson fuming. She drifted off into one of her favourite day dreams – Snape realised he was actually in love with Hermione and when his bitter ex-girlfriend returned Hermione pushed her into the lake where she drowned leaving…. "Snap out of it girl!" The voice in her head reprimanded. Honestly one of these days Snape was going to read her mind and she'd have a problem explaining a few things.
The lesson passed uneventfully and it was as she was packing up to leave that she heard him say "Stay behind please Miss Granger" It was all she could do not to dance around the room singing. He'd noticed her, finally noticed her! His reaction to her new look however was not what she'd expected. "Miss Granger, would you kindly inform me as to why you have given yourself this ghastly makeover" Snape asked silkily. Hermione was lost for words, she'd been so sure he'd like it after all it's what his girlfriend wore and… "Ok stop Hermione no need to scare him with the crazy." Sometimes the voice did speak reason.
"I mean to say Miss Granger, that I think you looked much better before and the next time you return to my class you better be wearing something a little more appropriate. 70 point from Gryffindor." And with that he left in a swirl of black robes leaving her completely lost for words.
"Why," she fumed on her way back, "Why could he not tell me before? Honestly does he think I'm a mind reader too? I just can't win!" With that she flopped onto a chair in her room trying to gain the energy to change back her look once more. Getting Severus Snape was proving to be a lot more difficult than she thought.
