Forbidden, Forever: Part 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Severus Snape woke and tried to sit up. He looked round and saw Ginny asleep next to him.
Oh God, he thought, what have I done? Ginny murmured and snuggled closer to him. They
were lying together in the bed in Snape's chamber and, though he knew what they had done
was wrong, he felt totally happy for the first time in years. She lay next to him, nestled on his
shoulder. He could feel her breath on his neck and felt her heart beating against his. Her right
leg was tucked over his and the palm of her right hand lay on his chest over his heart.
He wrapped his arms around Ginny and whispered to her.
"This is the perfect place to die, holding you in my arms." He kissed her forehead. Ginny
smiled and stirred, opening her eyes and gazing up into his. He smiled.
"Hi." She said, "You don't hate me do you?"
"of course not, why?" he replied. "Do you hate me?"
"No."
"Good."
"What are we going to tell everyone?" She asked, sitting up slightly. Suddenly, the same
thought dawned on him and he too sat up.
"Why do we have to tell them anything?"
"Because sooner or later someone's going to realise something's up. I mean," she paused, "if
you want to see me again?"
"Of course I want to see you again. What made you think I wouldn't?"
"Oh, I don't know......." Her voice trailed off and he kissed her. God, he thought, this is a
Weasley I'm kissing. I've just slept with a Weasely!
As they lay there, entwined in each others arms, Ginny thought, I'm starting to fall in love
with him. I'm starting to fall in love with my teacher. Even though both of them worried, they both
felt completely happy and when they got up and dressed, Ginny felt like singing.
Just as Ginny was about to go out of the door, Snape caught her hand.
"You do realise I'll be in deep trouble if anyone finds out, don't you?"
"Yes, I know. Anyway, I haven't got any friends that I can tell have I?"
They kissed each other good bye and as they went their separate ways, Snape thought, I'm
going to marry that girl.
One Month Later.....
Ginny and Snape had managed to keep their relationship a secret and Ginny was spending
most of her nights with Snape in his chamber. That month had been the happiest of
Ginny's life and Snape felt the same. He had told her at least twice that he loved her, but
Ginny had never said it to him. She had said she loved Seamus and look what happened so
she wasn't going to say anything like that until she was really sure. To mark their anniversary,
Snape had conjured Fairies to sit in the trees along the path and he was planning on them
going for a romantic walk in the grounds. He knew a charm which would make him and Ginny
invisible so there was no need to worry about being seen.
Ginny sang as she brushed her hair and got dressed. Severus had told her to wear
something nice so she put on her green silk dress with flared sleeves that Ron always said
would make Michelle Pfieffer go green with envy. She had been looking forward to tonight all
week and was in such a good mood that she just laughed when Colin told her that she looked
like a catarpillar in her dress. She climbed through the portrait hole and ran down the main
corridor to the to the entrance hall. She saw Severus and slowed down, unable to stop herself
from smiling.
He turned and saw her.
"You look wonderful. Come on, I've got something to show you." He grabbed her hand and they
ran, giggling like a couple of five year olds, down to the lake. They reached the water's edge
and sat down. "Here, stand still." Severus waved his wand over them and
whispered, "Invisbilis". Ginny looked down and saw that she was now invisible. She could
only see Severus. "Don't worry, to everyone else, we're both invisible." He waved his wand
again. "Romanticus Lightius". The grounds appeared lit by thousands of candles.
"Oh, Severus, it's lovely!" Ginny had never seen a more beautiful sight before in her life.
Suddenly, she felt very faint. She grabbed Severus' arm to stop herself from falling.
"What's wrong?" Severus held her so she could regain her balance.
"Nothing, I just feel a bit hot." Ginny closed her eyes and breathed deeply. She suddenly
collapsed against Severus.
"GINNY!"
