Chapter Four
Declaimer: I don't own any of the characters… all Harry Potter characters belong to J.K. Rowling! Though I wish I owned Sevvy… that would be amazing
Hermione ran to the dungeons and knocked on Snape's door. "Severus! It's me!" She called. Severus came and unlocked the door. "What's wrong, Hermione?" He asked. "My friends." She stated. "Ah." She walked in and sat down in one of the many chairs. "They get so annoying after a while! I mean honestly! They think I liked Lupin! What's going on with their minds!" She yelled. She grabbed a book and started reading. "So, they think you liked Professor Lupin. Well that's interesting." Hermione glared at him. "And I suppose having the whole Great Hall starring at you is interesting too?" she asked. "Wow, she barks and she bites!" Severus said. Hermione went back to her book. "Look, I'm just tired of it, ok?" She said. Severus nodded. "Well, try going through teaching and everyone calling you a greasy git." He said. Hermione laughed as she turned the page.
"My friends know." Hermione stated briefly. Severus sat down in another chair across from her. "About what?" He asked her. She looked up. "Don't play dumb. It's cute on you sometimes… but you're a teacher for Merlin's sake!" Hermione said. Severus gave a little chuckle. "Yes, but how much do they know?" "That I am madly in love with you. That's all." Severus walked towards her. "You are, are you?" Hermione looked up again. "Yes. Aren't you?" Severus smiled. "Of course." He leaned down and kissed her. They broke apart, not so soon, as they heard all of the other students waiting outside. Severus let her go out a different way and join her friends. Harry and Ron kept teasing her.
"Now, turn to page 394 in your books. Who can tell me why you would need to add…" as Severus continued teaching, Hermione went daydreaming. Kissing, and more kissing, and then going beyond kissing… but let's not get into that. "Miss Granger!" Severus said. Hermione snapped out of her daydream. "Yes Sev- I mean professor Snape?" The whole class snickered. "Do you know the answer to my question, or were you too busy daydreaming about getting all outstandings on your O.W.L.s?" the class snickered again. "Detention after class Miss Granger. And I would like you to write me a 3 rolls of parchment essay on the most powerful love potion there is… any arguments?" Hermione stayed silent. "Good… now, I would like your essay done and on my desk tomorrow morning." "Yes sir." Hermione said quietly looking down at her hands.
After class, Hermione went up to Severus' desk. "Umm, Professor?" "Start making an antidote for poison. Have it finished by lunch. If it is not finished, you will fail my class. Is this in any way unclear?" Hermione just starred at him, dumbfounded. "I said 'is this in any way unclear?'" "But, Severus…" "Get to work Miss Granger!" Severus snapped. Hermione made her way to her seat and began working on an antidote.
Hermione had the potion finished an hour before lunch. "Nice work Miss Granger." Hermione looked at him. "PROFESSOR," She said emphasizing the title. "What is going on?" Severus looked at her for a while. "He was watching." Was his reply. "Who?" "Dumbledore. I had to make it look real didn't I?" he said. Hermione looked up at him. "Oh, I get it." "Good. Now…" Severus leaned down and kissed her. Hermione smiled and slid her arms around his neck as he slid his arms around her waist.
After an hour of kissing, Severus dismissed Hermione and she ran to lunch. She sat down between Ron and Harry. "How was detention with your lovey dovey snapey?" Harry asked. Hermione hit his arm. "Harry, you're so annoying!" Hermione said as she got up and left the Great Hall. "What's wrong with her?" Ron asked. "Dunno, women!" Harry said.
"MEN! UHHGG!" Hermione said as she left.
