A/N: I apologize for this one not being as long as the previous chapters … It's just a fun dialogue that I couldn't keep from you. I hope you like it.
Chapter 8
'Hermione where have you been all weekend?' Ginny yelled at her when they sat down for dinner in the great hall. She felt a little ashamed of herself for ditching Ginny all weekend, but when the image of a very naked Severus Snape came to mind, she felt only very proud of herself for choosing him instead of her friends.
She tried not to blush or look at Severus at the head table while she looked at Ginny. 'Uhm, I don't think you would believe me, even if I told you.'
'Try me!' Ginny's eyes were wide now with curiosity.
'No really I can't tell you where I've been.' She desperately wanted to tell someone but it probably wasn't wise to do so. But Ginny could be trusted, she knew that.
'Oh come on, have I ever foretold a secret that you told me? You knew about all my boyfriends and kept quit for me towards Harry and Ron, please let me return the favor!' She bounced in her seat.
'Why do you presume it's about a boy?'
'Because the last three weeks you were miserable and this week you are radiating. You're not pregnant are you?' Her eyes went even bigger when that popped out of her mouth.
'No Ginny of course I'm not pregnant! I do have common sense believe me or not.' It was not like she was stupid enough to get herself pregnant by her teacher, she was on birth control potions in advance, her parents had taught her very well in that department.
'Then who made you this chipper? I really want to know! No, scratch that, I need to know!' Ginny was ever the drama queen.
'You are going to think I'm absolutely crazy but I really need to get this of my chest.' She looked over at the grand table and spotted him talking to Minerva amicably. Her heart swelled, seeing him so happy and more relaxed than ever, surely other people must have noticed as well.
Ginny seemed to follow her eyes and her mouth fell in shock as her eyes started to widen again. 'No, it can't be…' Ginny muttered to herself. Had she really been that obvious, that all it took was one look at the man?
Hermione watched the features of Ginny's face changing into shock, disgust, amazement and eventually just plain surprise. 'You seem to have figured it out.'
Ginny was eating air for the next minute and Hermione looked at her, wondering what her response was going to be. How do you react when you find out your best friend has been screwing her teacher? She couldn't help but chuckle.
'You think this is funny?' Ginny's voice interrupted her thoughts. She looked at her face to see if she was angry or something else.
'Well your face says it all, spit it out Ginny, it's not like you to hold back your opinion.' She crossed her arms to brace herself for what was coming.
'You… and Snape, am I correct about this?'
'Correct.' She nodded to encourage Ginny to go on.
'Actually I have no idea how to react to this, if I am honest.' A speechless Ginny, I've succeeded in life now.
'That's what McGonagall said as well.'
'She knows?!' Ginny's eyes went wide again. Hermione just nodded.
'And she approves that her favorite student is being fucked by one of her teachers? This day keeps getting weirder and weirder! And you let him? Willingly?'
Hermione nodded again to confirm, she couldn't help a blush that rose to her cheeks, again the image of his naked form came to mind.
'Circe's cunt!' Ginny yelled out and Hermione chuckled again. 'You fucking amaze me Hermione, over and over again. Who would have thought that you had it in you! After the whole ''I don't want Viktor Kruml to take my virginity'' debacle, I thought that was it for you. I thought you were going to stay a virgin forever!'
Hermione was glad that the table wasn't that busy because if people had been sitting close to them, they would have heard every word Ginny was saying. She looked over at the teachers table again and noticed Severus looking at her with his eyebrows frowned. She couldn't pinpoint if he looked angry or questioning. She hoped the latter. They did agree on not telling anyone but it hardly seemed fair that he could talk about it with Minerva and she had no one to discuss this with. Although she couldn't picture him having tea with Minerva and discussing his love life, or rather sex life, but still, he had the option.
'I wasn't going to stay a virgin forever Ginny. Just because I wasn't ready in my fourth year doesn't mean I wasn't ready when I started to date Ron.' Ginny's face turned into one of disgust. 'And after Ron there was… you get the picture…' She almost made a big mistake there.
'Who was there after Ron?' Ginny rose up from her seat. 'You lived at the burrow after the war, who could you have been with? It was not any of my other brothers was it?! Please tell me it's not!'
'I came here didn't I? I worked at the school for two months before it opened again. It could have easily been anyone.' She hoped that satisfied Ginny but she wasn't one for letting go easily.
'That's not an answer to my question Hermione.' Bugger! 'It's not Harry is it?' This was spiraling out of control very quickly.
'No! Don't be daft! Of course it's not Harry, he is like a brother to me! And I'm not yelling at you for screwing my brother am I?' Ginny finally said down after this. 'I have already told you about Severus today, that's all your getting for now, you insatiable woman.'
Ginny huffed at her as a reply. 'Fine, even though it seems here that you are the insatiable woman here.' She couldn't help but swat Ginny on her arm but a giggle escaped her nonetheless.
'Ginny can I ask you something?' Her cheeks became fury red when she looked at the woman next to her.
Ginny nodded and there was no going back now. 'Do you and Harry… well… when you have to… do you do it when you are in the same room?'
'What do we do when we are in the same room? What are you talking about? Spit it out.'
'Uhm… yeah… pee…' She put her face into her hands out of embarrassment. She couldn't believe that she just asked her best friend if she and her other best friends pee while they are in the same room. This is ridiculous.
Ginny went into a full laughing fit, holding her stomach and everything. 'Did you really just ask me if Harry and I pee together?' She laughed even harder before her eyes shifted to the grand table and her laughing turned into a look of horror. 'Did you… did he… ooh no… I'm never getting that image out of my head! Why do you ask such things? Thank you very much, now I imagine professor Snape taking a leek.' Now it was Ginny's turn to sink her face into her hands.
'Well do you?!' Hermione was getting irritated. She regretted her question the minute it left her mouth, she just couldn't stop thinking about it and Ginny was her best option.
'Oh… yes of course we do… it is normal Hermione, how many times have you not peed when I was in the bathroom, it's just a way of trust I guess. Only when I think about Snape in that way, it doesn't come across as normal anymore for Merlin's sake.'
She sank back into her chair, obviously relieved with the answer and tried to change the subject as quickly as possible. 'You realize you have to keep this a secret you know, please.'
But Ginny wasn't willing to let go just yet. 'You mean you and Snape peeing together.' She went straight into a fit of giggles again, tears rolling over her cheeks.
'Ginny! Grow up!' She crossed her arms to match her voice but Ginny's laugh was contagious and a smile started to form on her face. 'Oh my god I can't believe I asked you this.'
They both went into a fit of giggles after that, tears flowing and rolling down their faces and both holding their bellies. A few people started to watch the girls as they were holding on to each other while trying to catch their breath. Every time they seemed to get their selves together they only had to look at each other to erupt in laughter all over again. They totally missed that Severus Snape had left the table and was walking towards them.
'Miss Granger, Miss Weasley, take it down a notch.' They shot up straight and looked at a very pissed professor Snape. They were silent for a few seconds but then made the mistake of looking at each other again. They both looked at professor Snape again and when Ginny snorted trying to hold in her laugh, Hermione couldn't hold it anymore. Their laughter was even louder than before and Ginny was even waving her hand in front of her face to cool herself down.
'Miss Granger, my office, now!' He growled and Hermione tried to get up but her knees were weak from laughing. He was going to be so pissed but she just couldn't help herself.
'Oh for fuck's sake.' He muttered under his breath and took a hold of her arm. Hermione was still giggling when Severus hoisted her out of the Great hall. She had just enough time to turn her head over her shoulder and wave sheepishly at Ginny who was coming down from her laughter. Ginny winked at her and shot her a look of mischief.
Every other student in the Great Hall was just shocked, to say the least, that their potions professor just got physical with a student.
