~Wednesday

Severus found Hermione cooking breakfast. He came over to give her a kiss on her shoulder. 'Where do you want to go today? as I'm off at noon.'

'Are you I the mood for stuffy museum or wide open spaces?' she asked as she plated.

'I am with you so, you choose.'

'Well how about the Science Museum in London? You can see the muggle side of science as we go thru?'

'That does sound interesting.' as he kissed her and left for work.

'Oh I'm so sorry we only got the first floor done it was very interesting to see.' Severus spoke as they came in the mansion. 'Will you take me back some day?' he pleaded.

'Oh, sorry to bother you Lucius,' as they passed his open office door. 'Yes, we can go back, as long as you promise not to buy the library out.' she laughed at his pouting face.

'I only bought two, but they were others that I would be interested to read.'

'I will look at the local library to see if they might have some to borrow, for you. Oh, Cooky made stew for dinner.' smelling the air. After dinner they went to the library to read the new books.

'Thank you for a wonderful day Hermione. I have heard of the science museum but never thought there would be so much to learn.' as he hugged her. They walked up the stairs his arm around her shoulders and her arm around his waist.

Lucius closed the door to his study after watching them ascend out of sight. 'Wow she really is beautiful when she is happy, she almost glows. Me in my pureblood beliefs, I might have just lost something so precious.' He shook his head and sat down and stared at the fire.
