Here's to Fido the Wonder pup. Go Fido Go!
~~~~~~~~~~
Thank you to all who reviewed long after I had been a neglectful author. I love you all!

Severus Snape reached the gate of his parent's home and turned around to look at the petite lady running after him.
"Hermione," he called out, "I'll be back. I'm not leaving forever."
"Severus, I'd rather you not leave at all!" Hermione Granger said tears glistening in her eyes.
"I'll be home soon, baby. Don't wait up for me." He said with a little grin.
"Oh, Severus!" She exclaimed, wrapping her arms around him. "Why do I put up with you?"
"Because you love me." He stated.
Hermione smiled sadly. Her heart felt heavy.
He kissed the top of her forehead. "I love you, Hermione. Don't you ever forget that." With that, he was gone.
Hermione looked around. The snow was falling. It was so beautiful outside.
With a sad sigh, she turned and went back into the house.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Well, what are you going to do?" Elisabeth Snape asked her.
"I don't know, Lissa." Hermione sighed. "I can't go back to my work, because I was his potions apprentice. Maybe I'll go to University."
"I think you should take some time off."
"Time-off? To do what? Wallow in misery? Watch Pride and Prejudice with making myself fat with chocolate?"
"Colin Firth if extremely sexy!" Elisabeth said. "But no, go visit your friends, go travel the world. Hey, go to America! I'll give you a grand tour!"
"I think, I'll go with the former. I'm going to go visit my friends." Hermione grinned. "But when I'm bored with them, you better believe you're going to give me the grand tour!"
~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione lay in bed that night toying with her engagement ring. It was new, but it seemed to fit perfectly. She hoped Severus would be home soon.
~~~~~~~~~~
The End
~~~~~~~~~~
Yes, for real. But there will be a sequel and maybe even a sequel to the sequel which is what this coming sequel will be. Confused? The bunnies aren't, they know you have food for them!
