A/N: Believe it or not, our story is almost over...
*****Severus*****
Watching his kitten out of the corner of his eye, he gave a gracious and formal nod to the woman as he heard her words. Handsome? It seemed quite a strange word to use in such context. This woman might be out for more than just his mind, or was he just unable to take an honest compliment? He heard her reasoning behind calling him Tricia and felt a little bad for the woman. She was alone in a new place and had nobody to talk to. Perhaps giving her this one thing might make her feel a little more at home. "As you wish, Tricia." He said finally as his eyes took in her secretive smile.
"I am delighted and humbled by your words. I am sure Hogwarts will be a good home for you." For the first time in ages, he peeled away his stare from her and looked out of the window, seeing the trees rush by them. His mind was drawn to the last day, when he was fucking his little girl. It drew a tiny grin to his lips. He could not wait for tonight. He grabbed the kitty from on top his luggage and sat her down on his lap, stroking her head up and down.
Tricia was smart and she could tell that he was through talking. But after hearing his deep, silky voice say her name she felt satisfied. Pulling out a book, she settled into her spot and poured herself into her reading. She was beginning to look forward to the school year.
******Hermione******
Hermione frowned at his concession of calling her Tricia. She wondered what compelled him to do so. Was it the fact that she was a beautiful witch? Or that she was lonely? Maybe it was both. Either way, Hermione knew trouble was brewing. When Severus guided her into his lap, she couldn't relax. His petting was only a mild comfort. A comfort that went away when she saw his tiny grin. She thought she was the only woman who could make him smile like that.
*****Severus*****
The rest of the journey went rather uneventful. Severus did his own reading, preparing for the curriculum that he had to present. He knew how all the things worked by heart, but he still needed to know what to teach first. All the while he had his kitten on his lap, stroking her neck and belly. If he was not going to be able to be close to his little girl, at least her kitten form would give him some comfort.
When the train arrived, he got up from his seat and looked at Tricia. "Well it was very nice to meet you." he was trying to get rid of her so that he could have a talk with his kitten in the cabin but was unsure if his tactic of dismissing her would work. After all they were heading to the same place and they could technically accompany each other. Severus was not a fan of spending too much time with this woman because he felt attracted to her. He needed no other woman in his life as his little girl satisfied him completely.
Tricia knew better than to bug the man right away. Besides, she knew he was probably a solitary man and wouldn't take kindly to her taking up too much of his time. Older men were like that. Standing up and grabbing her suitcase she flashed him a genuine smile. "It was nice meeting you too. I guess I'll be seeing you soon. Although I was hoping you'd help me find my chambers," she added taking a small step towards him, her perfume wafting up to his nose as she did.
******Hermione*****
Hermione had been dozing off before they stopped. She was ready to be rid of the witch but depending on Severus's response she could be stuck with her for a while. And Hermione didn't know how to feel about the obvious attraction between the two. But it was making her sick. She meowed softly, but she doubted Severus would know what she was feeling. Another downside to this damned kitten body.
*******Severus******
Severus was a man that could not bear a woman in distress. While he wanted to spent time with his Hermione, this woman was on new campus and did not not the way to her own chambers. It would be cruel to leave her to fend for herself. "I suppose I could help you get safely to your chambers." He said with no change on his face at all. He stroked his kitty a few times to apologize as he missed Hermione's touch. The strokes were as much for him as they were for her. They would serve to get him through the day without her affection.
He placed her on his shoulder and walked out with his bags towards the main building. Students parted as they walked, looking at Severus like he was the devil or worse. He got quite a few weird looks as he was carrying a kitty on his shoulders, but Severus did not care. He did not care what a bunch of prepubescent teens thought. As they traveled to the castle the smell of Tricia's lovely perfume reached his nostrils. It was mature and sexy something the primal side of him took note of instantly. "Your room should be just over here." He said as they approached a door in a long corridor.
Tricia's smile brightened when he agreed to help her find her chambers. She had been afraid that she would've had to walk around the castle by herself. On the way there she noticed the kitten on his shoulder and she smiled. Just another mystery. She never expected for him to have such an innocuous pet. "Thanks for all of your help," Professor Miller declared once they reached her quarters. "I'll definitely have to repay you for all of your kindness. Good afternoon Professor. I guess I'll see you for the tour later this evening. Just let me know where you want me and at what time."
******Severus*****
"Not necessary Tricia." Severus replied as they arrived at the door. "I will come and get you in an hour. I shall just get to my room and placed my belongings there and get situated." He wanted so desperately to spend time with Hermione but it just seemed that today was going to be a busy day for him. It was as if the world was conspiring against them.
"I bid you farewell." He said with a slight bow, before he started to walk down the corridor to his chambers. As Snape entered his chambers, the smell of various liquids invaded the nostrils. He placed his things down and looked at the kitty on his shoulder. "Daddy misses you so much." He said with a loud sigh. "Why don't you transform, I want to hold you at least for a short time."
******Hermione*****
Hermione was feeling a whole cluster of emotions by the time they arrived at Severus's chambers. However, when he asked to hold her she couldn't deny him. Not when she had missed his touch just as much. She jumped down from his shoulder, transforming in midair. She said nothing to him, Hermione just wrapped her arms around his waist. Laying her head on his chest and listened to the rhythmic beating of his heart.
******Severus******
Severus wrapped his strong arms around Hermione, pulling her close to his chest. Severus closed his eyes as he rested his chin on her head. He had been wanting to do this all day and now that he finally got to, all seemed right again. His hand rubbed her back as he led her head by the chin to meet her gaze. "I missed you." He said finally, breaking the silence before leaning in and pressing his lips against hers. Even though she was always with him as a little kitten, it did not feel the same. He wanted to be with her and show the world. He should be proud to have such an amazing woman with him but it was wrong. She was so young. Sex was one thing, but a real relationship? That was another. And they had not discussed this arrangement being anything beyond colleagues indulging in each other's company. And they had love for each other, yes, but was it the kind one built lasting relationships on?
Severus didn't know the answer to that.
With he heavy sigh, he broke the kiss but continued to look into her eyes. "I must go soon." He ran his calloused hands along the outskirts of her figure, feeling her perfect hourglass frame. The Potions Master hoped that seeing and feeling Hermione would keep his libido in check until nightfall. Plus, a reminder of what he had at home was needed after meeting Tricia Miller. There was a small part of his brain that was thinking about how logically she would be the smarter, less controversial choice.
******Hermione******
Hermione never thought a couple of hours would feel like decades, but they did. Being a kitten on his shoulder wasn't the same as being a woman on his arm. And then this new professor seemed to want Severus and Hermione wanted to believe that his love for her would outweigh any advances but she didn't know for sure. She was already regretting coming to Hogwarts. Hermione let out a wistful sigh as his hands ran over her body. "I wish you could stay. We didn't have any time on the train because of her. And I need my Daddy. My Severus." She kissed him again softly, taking her fingers through his hair. "Please hurry back to me, my love," she whispered in an earnest sort of way. It felt as if she was losing him already.
*****Severus*****
Severus felt the need in is pants when she told him that she needed her Daddy. The soft gentle kiss they were sharing ended and a new one began. This one filled with the feverish lust he felt for this woman. He could not fathom the raw primal lust he felt for her. Even just being without her for an entire day was torture. Severus lifted her up by her hips and put her down on his desk, breaking a few beakers and potions behind him. He did not care for right now all that matter was his little girl. He ran his hands along her legs until they reached her hips, "I will make it short, I promise. I cannot wait to come back to you." His lips crashed into hers again, unable to sate the need to taste her. "I want you to keep that pussy nice and wet for me. I do not think I will be able to wait when I get back."
******Hermione*****
Just like Severus, Hermione ignored the broken beakers and things as he kissed her heatedly. She closed her eyes and moaned into the kiss. When he told her he wanted her to keep her pussy wet, Hermione growled and leaned forward to nibble on his ear. "Shall I play with Vladimir a bit while you're gone?" She purred, "That way while you're with Professor Miller you can think about me masturbating on your bed."
******Severus******
Severus bit his lip to prevent his growl from rumbling out of him as she whispered her dirty words into his ear. The hands on her waist tightened, pressing his body in between her legs. "I think that would be wise but you know the rules. You may not cum without my permission." Severus was seriously debating to blow the professor off and thought that was rather concerning. He could not let his relationship with this woman affect his work. It was easier said than done as he was already feeling his cock beg to be released in his trousers. He ran his calloused hand against her cheek, his fingers dancing over her skin and lips. "I will be thinking about you while I am away. Daddy will be back as soon as he can." He ran his thumb against her lips before he gripped her chin and forced her to look at him. Maybe I need to tie you up so that you do not cheat or are you going to be a good girl for Daddy?"
