She Wasn't Fooling Him

"Mysterious?" Severus snorted into his drink. "Hermione, I'm far from mysterious." Hermione and he had gone to the Three Broomsticks for their weekly pint. The topic of conversation was usually pleasant, but this… She was being ridiculous. Women didn't find him mysterious or attractive. He was not a fascinating man.

"Nonsense," Hermione countered. "You are mysterious in your ways. That's why the women keep throwing themselves at you."

Something in Hermione's tone caught him by surprise. Severus arched a brow at her. "Are you jealous?"

"Jealous!" Hermione sputtered. "Of course not." The faint blush on her cheeks gave her away.
