Hermione stopped in front of Snape's office door. She became very nervous. What if he didn't like her gift? What would he do to it? What would he do to her? What if...
The door suddenly opened. Hermione let out a small scream
"Miss Granger. What are you doing here? It's almost time for diner," Professor Snape said.
"I just wanted to give you your Christmas present. I am going home for Christmas and I wanted to give it to you personally. So, Happy Christmas." She handed him the present.
"Thank you," he said dully. "I'll open it later because we are now late for dinner." He went inside and set it down on his desk.
Hermione sighed and ran to the Great Hall, almost totally in tears.
"What's wrong?" Ginny asked when Hermione sat down at the table.
"I have a feeling he won't like m present," she sobbed out.
"Who didn't like your present?" Ron asked.
"Oh, shut up, Ron. You'll make her feel worse," Ginny spat angrily.
"Maybe you should just give up asking questions, Ron," Harry said.
"Maybe I should just eat my life away," Ron said. He then went back to eating.
"What makes you think that?" Ginny asked Hermione.
"He didn't even open it when I gave it to him."
That doesn't mean anything, Hermione. It's just something guys do. They don't open things right away, but it doesn't mean they won't like it," Harry said. Hermione wailed even louder.
"There's still the possibility that he won't like it," she wailed.
"Hermione, there's no reason for you to be this worked up over a guy. After you leave here, you'll probably never even see him again," Harry said. She wailed even louder than before. She then got up and ran out of the Great Hall.
"Guys are so not understanding," Ginny shouted at them and then ran out behind Hermione.
"That went well," Ron said after he washed down his food with some Pumpkin Juice. Harry rolled his eyes but didn't say anything.
