I know this is a short chapter. Please read, and review.I do apologise about my typo's.

Hermione, sat with her friends, in the great hall for breakfast, she would glance at the head table, to see if proffessor Snape was there yet, no sign of him. She jumped when she felt someone grab her arse, she glared at Ron, who just happened to be looking at her at the moment she turned, and smacked him, "What the hell do you think you're doing Ron?"

Ron just gave her a puzzled look, as he held his sore cheek, "What are you talking about?"

"You grabbed my arse!" She said louder then she probably should had, she looked back at the head table, 'Damn, where is that man?'

"How could he had grabbed you, when both his hands were holding food?" Harry looked at his poor red headed friend, and then gave Hermione a confused look.

"Yeah, Mione, his hands were in eye view the whole time," Ginny was trying not to laugh at her poor brother.

Hermione looked back at the Head Table, where Severus was now sitting, grinning behind his coffee mug, she remembered what he said about having his own invisibility cloak, she gave him a teasing glare.

The Potion Professor, just smirked.

"I think you owe someone a bloody, apoplogy," Ron stated bitterly, "A certain Weasley perhaps."

Hermione wrapped her arms around her red headed best friend, and kissed his cheek, "I'm sorry, Ron."

Severus watched the whole scene, her arms around that Weasley, and she had kissed that boy, in front of him. His smirk dissapeared, how can she do that to him, she had said she wanted him last night, that no other guy came close to the same interest as he had.

POTIONS CLASS

Severus had sat behind his desk, watching her, as the class took notes, and worked with there cauldrons., he stood up, and started walking around the room, well mostly in her area, she was laughing at something one of her idiot friends had said, he stood above her, towering her, "Miss Granger, detention, for distrupting the class,' he looked at Ron, "50 points from Gryffindor!" He looked back at the girl, "Thank Miss Granger."

"What did she do?" Harry protested, "She just laughed."

The Proffessor glared at the-boy-who-lived, "20 points from Gryffindor." He turned and walked back to his desk, noticing the book was glowing. He looked back at the girl, and then took a seat behind his desk, and opened the book.

In Hermione's already familiar-to-him handwritting, he read:

'What's the matter with you?'

He looked up, to see Hermione's eyes were on him, glaring. He stood up, and walk in front of his desk, when the bell had rang for lunch, "Miss Granger, your detention starts now."

Hermione watched as her friends, along with all the other students left the classroom, then looked at Severus, "So now starving your students, is a new form of detention?"

"You wanted to know what the matter with me was, as if you didn't know already," He went back behind his desk, before he looked at the girl again, "So tell me Miss Granger, did you win?"

"Win?" She looked around the room, to see if there might by chance, be another Miss Granger, which of course she knew there wasn't. She looked at Severus, "Did I win what?"

He slammed his fist against his desk, before making his way to where she was sitting, "You must had made a bet, to see who could get me into there bed."

She could feel her body burn, by his closeness, even in his rages, he still could turn her on. She swallowed, before looking into his dark eyes, "I didn't make a bet, and tell me what really is going on?"

"I saw you kiss that Weasley boy, while wrapping your arms around him," He took a step closer, bending down.

Hermione looked at him, "He is only my friend, I slapped his cheek, when I thought it was him that grabbed my arse," she rolled her eye, "It was you though, I kissed his cheek as a friend, trust me I meant what I told you last night, I only take what I want, and take them how I want them. I only want Ron, and Harry as a friend."

He couldn't believe it, he was actually jealouse, he cupped her cheek in his hand, "I guess I was afraid this was all a game, with you, and I might had got a little jealous."

She couldn't help but smile, true he accused her of cheating, but that was just because he was jealous, and he wouldn't had been jealouse if he didn't care right, "Well don't worry about it, I will forgive you, if you promise to never think wrong of me again."

He pulled her face to his, and kissed her with all the passion he had been feeling at that moment.

"Detention, took on a new meaning, now hasn't it?" Dumbledore came into the classroom, and had seen them kissing. Now both of them were looking at the Headmaster.

"Albus." Professor Snape got ready to say something, but was cut short when Albus gestered for him not to say anything. He looked at Hermione, "Miss Granger, we found your families where-abouts."

During the war against Voldamort, Hermione had been unable to locate her family, or to know if they had been safe or not. They had put up a good fight, but lost some good people, but mostly Death Eaters, but the ones who had remained alive said they were under Voldamort's spell, so they didn't have to go to Azkaban. Severus had been Dumbledors Spy, and came in brilliantly, it was easy for all the students to assume he had really been working for the dark lords, made it easier for him to do his job if he didn't allow himself to get attached to the students.

Hermione looked at the headmaster confused, "You found my parents?"

Albus came closer to the girl, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, he looked her in the eyes, "They were found, in a small cemetery, it seems they were in an automobile accident. Car went off a cliff."

Hermione almost collapsed to the ground, but was caught by Severus, who sat her back in the chair she had almost fell out of. Her eyes were burning, as tears began to make there way down her cheeks.

Severus wasn't sure what to do, he knew it was against the rules to be caught kissing a minor, but this was also the woman he had grown to really care about. He looked at Albus confused.

Albus had nodded his approval, to the man befor him, "I will see you in my office tonight Severus, I have something to ask of you," he turned around and looked at the two, Severus was now cradleing the girl in his arms, rocking her back and forth, "I will take over the rest of your classes for today Severus, and will see that no one bothers you."

Severus watched as the older man left, then lifted Hermione up, and carried her through a door that had lead from his classroom, to his living quarters. He had set her on the sofa in front of his fireplace, and sat down beside her, holding her, "I am so sorry, Hermione."

"I didn't get to say good bye," She cried into Severus's chest, "I can't believe this is happening, I don't have no one. I don't have a family."

Severus lifted the girls chin, so she was now looking into his eyes, he kissed her forehead gently, "You have your friends, and Professors and now me."

"I don't want any of that, if it means I can't have my family," She pulled out of his grasp, and started to his door, her legs have gave out before she was able to leave his quarters, and she fell to the ground, crying into his stone floor. "I should had just died when the glass cut me," she pulled herself up against the door, and pulled her legs to her chest, "Then I would had been with them," She looked at Severus, who had stayed on the couch, he was staring at her, "You should had left me."

He shook his head, as he felt tears forming in his eyes, he crawled down onto the floor and made his way to where the one he wanted, was leaning against the door, "Don't talk like that, don't you ever talk like that again, I am glad I found you when I did," he had tears falling down his cheeks, he held her face in both his hands, "I don't know what I would had done if you weren't around."

"You would had got another student," She saw him cringe, knowing how he felt for her, she knew he wouldn't want another woman, but she wanted someone to hurt as much as she was hurting at this moment.

He knew she didn't mean it, he ran his long fingers through his hair, "Hermione, please don't-"

"Kiss me," Her eyes were closed, waiting for his lips to meet hers.

"I am not going to kiss you, not when you're mourning," He stood to his feet, and bent to lift her up, carrying her to the couch again, "I don't want the reason for the kiss to be for distraction, because I don't want to be anyones distraction. Neither would you. I want whatever happens between up, to be because of us, not because your mourning, or mad, or trying to forget soemthing bad. I want our kisses, our love making to be for eachother. I do not want you to forget this day, because you will never fully recover until you have truly mourned.That is the only way to move on, is to let it pass gradually."

She stared at him for a moment, thinking of his words, then started crying, "Will you at least hold me?"

He smiled at her, as he pulled her into his chest, "Always."

There they sat against the door, on the stoned floor holding eachother.
