STORIES TO BE TOLD - CHAPTER 21 (Beta'd by Snakeyez82)
I own nothing.
Severus awoke the next morning, to the sound of Hermione moaning in agony.
"Love, are you alright?"
"Bathroom" was the only word Hermione managed to get out. Severus got up quickly and picked her up, carrying her into the bathroom. He sat her down, and she immediately lunged for the toilet. Severus held onto her hair while she vomited.
Hermione stopped and leaned on the toilet, "Please tell me you have hang over potion."
Severus rubbed her back, "I will be right back." He walked out and came back in a few moments later, handing her the potion, "Here, this will help. I will be back in a moment, I'm sure your cohorts will need some as well."
Hermione took the potion and felt warmth come over her. She instantly felt a lot better, but was still sluggish. As she slowly walked into the hallway, to head back into the bedroom, Severus was coming up the stairs.
"Were they awake?" Hermione asked.
"No, it's still very early, the sun hasn't risen yet. I left the potion in the living room, where they are still sleeping," Severus said, putting an arm around her and helping her back to bed.
"What was going on yesterday?" Severus asked, cuddling into her in bed.
"What do you mean?" Hermione asked.
"You drank so much yesterday, all three of you did. I knew I should have made you talk to me yesterday." Severus stated.
"We were just releasing some steam, I guess we just needed a break." Hermione answered.
"I just don't like thinking that you felt as though you had to resort to drinking to make yourself feel better," Severus said, tightening his grip on her.
"I know I can talk to you," she said, leaning on him.
"The next time you decide to drink yourself into oblivion, come talk to me first," Severus said.
Hermione smiled, "Will do."
"Although, you were trying to seduce me yesterday, even in front of your friends. So maybe I like you drunk," Severus said smirking.
"What!?" she cried, flipping around and facing him. "Harry and Ron know about us!" she exclaimed nervously.
"It's alright love, they had already guessed as much, and placed a bet." Hermione's face turned red. "Actually, they were fine about it. And, that's even if they remember, they were just as drunk as you," Severus said, rubbing his hand on her arm, comforting her.
Hermione gazed into Severus eyes, as he rubbed her arm. "I love you", she said smiling.
"I love you too," he replied before kissing her. Hermione felt his tongue lightly grazing her lips, so she opened them, allowing him to push his tongue in deeply to duel with hers. She moaned and Severus rolled on top of her.
"I want you," he whispered into her ear as he broke the kiss. He then began kissing her neck, as he peeled away her clothes. Hermione rubbed her hands up and down Severus' sides and into his hair. Severus kissed his way down to her breasts, sucking and nibbling on them. She moaned, spreading her legs then pushed her hips into him. He smiled and slowly kissed his way down her body, and upon reaching his destination, began softly sucking on her clit. Hermione clutched the sheets with one hand and fisted the other in his hair. Severus slid his hand along the inside of her thigh, then slowly slid two fingers inside of her.
"Severus.." she moaned, clutching onto his shoulder. Severus thrust his fingers into her faster, while simultaneously licking her clit. She moaned as he slid his fingers out, replacing them with his tongue. Hermione bucked into him, then he began rubbing her clit with his thumb. Hermione clutched his hair again, feeling her release. Severus continued thrusting his tongue inside of her, letting her ride out the orgasm. She whimpered in ecstasy as he removed his tongue and began kissing his way back up to her neck. Hermione clung to Severus as he kissed and sucked on her neck. He slid his throbbing erection between her wet lips, she moaned and spread her legs wider.
"Severus, why do you still have clothes on?" she said, tugging at his pants.
"I was busy," he smirked, pulling off his clothes. He was still teasing her, by rubbing his erection on her leg.
"Severus, please!" she pleaded for him to enter her. Severus took Hermione's legs and placed them on his shoulders, allowing him to penetrate deep inside of her. He placed himself at her entrance, and thrust into her. She cried out in pleasure from feeling him deep inside of her. Hermione placed her hands on Severus' hips, causing him to moan as loud as possible, and thrust inside of her faster. Hermione let out a scream as Severus moved faster, clutching his sides harder. Hermione's moans and the feel of her clutching his hips, made him thrust fast and hard, until they both cried out in ecstasy. Severus kept thrusting, letting them ride out their orgasms, until he couldn't hold himself up, and collapsed on top of Hermione.
Both were quivering in pleasure and catching their breath. Eventually Severus rolled off, pulling Hermione with him, so she was laying on his chest.
After a moment of getting their senses back, Severus spoke, "I want you to get some more sleep, it's still very early."
"Yes, I am tired, especially after that," she said, smiling. Severus pulled the blanket over them and waited for Hermione to go to sleep. After she fell asleep, Severus got out of bed, dressed, and walked down to the kitchen. He opened the door, and jumped, seeing Elizabeth sitting at the table.
"Do you make it a point, everyday, to scare the daylights out of me?" he grumbled, sitting in the chair opposite of her.
She smirked, "Well, I would still be in bed, but I couldn't sleep with all the moaning coming from the next room."
Severus looked up with a horrified look on his face, "I, um.."
"Oh, relax, I cast a silencing charm on your room. Plus, Harry and Ron are still knocked out." Elizabeth said, smiling. Severus looked at her with a half smile on his face.
"I'm just glad you finally found someone to make you happy, and she's lovely," Elizabeth said, grasping his hand.
"As am I." Severus replied.
Severus and Elizabeth sat for a while, catching up on the things they had missed in each other's lives, for the time they had been apart.
"I need to retreat to my study, I have a few things to get ready for Professor Dumbledore." He said, kissing Elizabeth's cheek then walking out of the room. Severus was in his study for about an hour, when Dumbledore appeared from the fireplace.
"Professor Dumbledore, to what do I owe this visit?" Severus said, standing.
"I am afraid it's not on a particularly good note," Dumbledore said.
"What could possibly be going on now?" Severus asked, sitting down.
"It seems Lucius Malfoy is searching for Ms Granger, he was in the castle last night, claiming to be visiting his son," Dumbledore said, sitting in a chair.
"Does the ministry have enough evidence to convict him, for murdering the Grangers?" Severus asked smoothly.
"They are working on it, they should have by the time the weekend comes and goes. So, it is advised that you and Ms Granger remain here. Also, it is probably a good idea to leave Mr Potter and Mr Weasley here as well. With Mr Malfoy at large, they are also in danger," Dumbledore said tiredly.
Severus nodded, "Agreed."
"And, I do believe you should be getting acquainted with those two, seeing as you will be seeing a lot of them in the future," Dumbledore said with twinkling eyes. Severus glared at him, but said nothing.
"I need to return to Hogwarts, but I do not think you should let the three know what is going on. Just tell them I am giving them a much needed vacation," Dumbledore said, rising and walking toward the fireplace. "Although, after last night, I believe they are in need of a vacation." Dumbledore said smirking. Severus gave him a weird look and watched him disappear into the fireplace.
