"I think I'm in love with you and I'm terrified."
Severus's hands shook. How strange. His body was always an anchor—resilient, calm, centred. Today wasn't the norm. He could feel his heart thumping too excitedly, his legs unable to keep still and shifting side to side.
Why the fidgeting; the inability to keep detached?
'I think I'm in love with you and I'm terrified.'
The words had been unceremonious as they poured from his lips, and far too quickly, but he'd meant them.
Now he awaited her reply, tortured by the reflection in her eyes. Did Hermione love him back; or would he remain terrified all by his lonesome?
