Chapter Three: A Sleepover with Snape



Severus sat her bag on the bed. "Would you be comfortable with sleeping in my bed tonight?" Severus asked. Hermione was awestruck. "Where would you sleep?" Hermione asked as she sat on the bed, fearing that her legs would give way. "In the bed with you, unless you do not want me to. Or I will sleep on the couch and let you have the bed. It is your choice," Severus said as he sat on the bed next to her. He smiled and patted her hand, she was obviously confused, and he was rather amused to see it. "Well then."Hermione let out a sigh and withdrew her hand thinking, so much for seducing him, "What did Dumbledore say to you? I have no idea what was said. I am thoroughly dumbfounded, so please explain," Hermione said as she positioned herself on the bed to face Severus. "Albus told me that you have feelings for me that go beyond the friend kind, into something romantic and loving I would suppose. He told me that you could stay with me here in my chambers on the weekends if my emotions find it.appropriate. I thought on it all day and came to the conclusion that I am attracted to you, and would like to see what develops. What do you think?" Severus asked as he again reached for her hand and rubbed it softly. Hermione looked down at his hand and smiled. She had never thought it possible for her to actually be with Severus. I am here, he is making moves, has proclaimed his obvious like of me, and I might as well take the chance. Hermione withdrew her hand and picked up her bag, calling behind her, "I am going to change into my night clothes. I'm already a bit tired really. Change into yours also, then we can lay in bed and talk." Hermione winked at him as she made her way to the bathroom. Tired. HA! What a lie that is, she thought to herself. There is no way I am tired with Severus Snape finally asking me to sleep in the same bed with him. But what is he expecting? I don't want to just screw him the first night I stay over. Maybe the second but definitely not the first, she thought as she slipped on her black gown. Then again, I don't want it to be just screwing. I want him to care for me. Maybe this will take some time, Hermione thought to herself. When she entered the bedroom again she saw Severus lying underneath the covers with a smile on his face, a smile that got wider when he saw what she was wearing. He was on the left side of the bed, his body bare to his waist. He looks so good! Hermione thought as she put down the bag and slipped into the right side of the bed. Severus' eyes had also gotten wide when he saw what she was wearing, it left very little to the imagination. It was evening gown like, showed off all her cleavage, and made Severus' mouth water. Wait until she feels around underneath the covers, Snape thought when Hermione scooted over to him. She was merely centimeters from his touch, and to Severus it was torture. He locked his eyes on hers and she smiled. "So what would you like to talk about, Hermione?" Severus asked as he drew her into his arms. Heaven, he thought, she feels wonderful. Hermione smiled and snuggled into him. "How about some questions?" Hermione asked as she rubbed on his.NAKED THIGH! Merlin! Is he naked under here? Oh, I might faint.. Hermione closed her eyes as Severus smiled and answered. "Sure, ask me what you want." Hermione positioned herself so that she was facing him before asking, "What exactly is it that you feel for me, Severus?" Severus looked at her and smiled, "I must say that when Dumbledore came to me with his 'proposal' I was a bit timid. So, I thought on things. I realized that you are the one person I trust, besides Dumbledore, and that I truly like you, very much. Almost to the point of.." Severus turned his head away so Hermione could not see him get choked up. I don't want to scare her away, Severus thought. Hermione reached up to his face and gently turned it towards hers. "To the point of what, Severus?" She asked and he looked at her longingly. Severus closed his eyes and leaned against her soft hands, wanting to savor the moment forever. "Just give me time, Hermione. This is new to us both. I don't want to ruin things between us. I want this to last."Severus looked at her in anguish, he wanted to make love to her right then and there, but he knew that these things need time, just as he had said. Hermione smiled at him in understanding and stroked his face softly with the palm of her right hand. Severus began breathing heavy as she traced his lips with her index finger.

"Hermione. do you know what you are doing to me?" Severus asked as he took her index finger in his mouth and sucked on it gently.

"I can guess that by the look of the covers it is something good," Hermione mused as Snape looked down at his obvious erection that had caused the covers to fall away. Hermione pulled her finger away as he modestly pulled the cover up over his member. "Sorry, it is just that you. well. You are so seductive and beautiful," Severus said as he looked into her brown eyes. "Thank you. You are equally that, if not more," Hermione said in a low voice as she sought his hands. Once she had them, she began to kiss each fingertip, teasing slightly by caressing a few with her tongue. Severus moaned when she began to suck on one and pulled away. "Hermione, this is pure torture. Keep this up and then you won't be able to get away from me," Severus said as he gently pulled her into his arms and lay back onto the bed. "Who says that I want to get away? Besides I wouldn't be in your arms if getting away were the case," Hermione then snuggled down into his chest. They lay there for a few moments, each contemplating over what had happened thus far. Severus whispered a charm and all the lights went out except for one across the room that shinned a nice glow on the two. Then Hermione lifted her head to say something to Severus. As she faced him his lips came down upon hers, hard at first then soft. Hermione threw her arms around his neck and returned the kiss with equal passion. Severus stroked her hair and ran his hands up and down her sides, making Hermione moan and press against him. Suddenly his tongue entered her mouth and she gasped, and then moaned at the expertness of it. I wonder what else his tongue would be good for, Hermione thought naughtily. Severus' hands where everywhere, except for the twin peaks and south of the border, just where Hermione wanted them at this moment. Hermione grabbed his arse, and he let out a moan. "Hermione." was followed by the moan as his hands forcefully grabbed her breasts and massaged them. This time it was Hermione's turn to moan as she tried to slip out of her nightgown. She wanted to feel his skin on hers. Severus got the hint and pulled away, looking her in the eyes as he removed her last shred of clothing and tossed it somewhere into the darkness of the room. Severus turned around with a look of hunger in his eyes, this look startled Hermione as he kissed her fiercely. He pushed Hermione on her back onto the bed and rolled on top of her. Severus was in a frenzy, he hadn't has a woman in years, and wasn't sure if he could stop himself. He could feel the blood throbbing and his heart was racing as he positioned himself right outside of Hermione. NO! Hermione thought as she realized what was about to happen. It's not supposed to happen like this! She then moved up into the bed and let out a shrill scream. I am not going to be taken like an animal again, Hermione thought as she busted into a fit of hysteria.

A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in so long. Due to ff.net having technical problems, and me having a life, writing takes a little while these days. But no worries I seem to be back on track. So how are you liking it thus far? I really don't believe I want them to screw just yet. I put a little bit of kinky finger lickin' in there for you freakies out there, but I thought it was pretty funny myself. I don't know how long this next chapter will take to get out because I have band starting back up and must focus on music and marching. But any ideas are welcome. Thanks for all your reviews, I read and appreciate every one! Lucretia~*
