Chapter 7 - Memories and an agreement with a devil.
Lunch went off without incident a fact Harry was grateful for. "What did I miss in transfiguration?" "Not much McGonagall decided to do a review and then lecture about fighting in the halls." Hermione said looking pointedly at Harry. Harry slouched "Well the prat shouldn't have gone on about my aunt." Hermione gave Harry a look of sympathy. "If you'll excuse me I have to go the library." She said getting up from the table. "I'll go with you." "NO!, I mean no, I won't be any fun and I really can't use the distractions. "She said before taking off at a run. Harry frowned and looked at Ron, "You know what's up with her? She's been acting weird since yesterday." "No idea Harry, but even her owls the last few weeks were not normal." Ron said as he scarfed down a few more pieces of fruit.
Hermione ran quickly she was already late for her appointment with Madam Pomfrey. "Hello?" she called as she entered the infirmary. "Oh hello dear." "I had an appointment I need to speak with you in privet." Hermione said looking around seeing only the one bed with screens around it. "Of course dear, please follow me." Hermione remained quiet until she entered the medi-witches office and had sat down. "So tell me Ms.Granger what did you need to see me about?" Hermione took a deep breath. "I'm pregnant." Madam Pomfrey looked at Hermione with disapproval. "Are you sure ms.granger? Could you just be under a lot of stress?" "I'm sure Madam Pomfrey I took a muggle pregnancy test." Those inaccurate things, come here let's see" Hermione stood as the medi witch grabbed her wand and started doing the spell, "gravida experior" a light came out of her wand and settled over Hermione's abdomen. Slowly the light became a blue cross. "Well that's the end of it you're carrying." "I thought I should let you know, ask what usually happens." "Well, I think the first thing we should do is talk to professor Dumbledore. He Might have something to say." Hermione nodded, "I'll be able to stay for the rest of the school year won't I. By my calculations the baby would be born around Easter time?" "I'm not sure child, why not just make your life easy and take a termination potion, you are so young." Hermione stared at the medi witch "I can't do that. I love the father of this child and." Poppy Pomfrey shook her head, she had scene several girls do this to themselves in the past and never with good results. "Talk to Professor Dumbledore, tell the father of this baby and work it out." Hermione nodded, "IF you'll excuse me." Madam Pomfrey nodded, gave a weak smiled and watched as the young woman walked out. Meanwhile Draco Malfoy grinned evilly, "I know someone who would love to have this information." He thought as he headed to class.
The day passed well enough for Gwen, but she was concerned, she had been having troubling visions of Harry, Hermione and surprisingly Ron all day. She knew something was going on but she wasn't positive she would be able to change things. She thought back on her visions, Screams echoed through the halls as Hermione fell. "Hermione," Both Ron and Harry shouted as they came up behind her running fast. "Harry get down!" Gwen shouted as she pulled her wand and attacked the figures headed her way. All of a sudden she felt the heat as she was thrown back. She saw the blood and agony before she felt the pain. She looked up to see Harry's eyes look down. "I'm sorry Harry. So sorry." "Shh, don't we'll talk about it later." she heard him whisper before she drifted off. Gwen gasped as cold water had hit her as she pulled out of it. Again, the same vision. When ever she thought about it, it happened. "Professor are you okay?" "I'm fine Muirnin. Just drifted off for a moment." She said winking. She looked at the clock on the back wall. "Well guys it seems that class has just begun, but alas it is over, please meditate over the weekend and write what your predictions for the school year will bring." She watched as they started to file out of the class. Once the last student had left she took out the potion and took a long swig. Immediately she started to feel better. "And what is that you are taking my dear?" "None of your business." Severus Snape shook his head as he strode to the front of the room and took the bottle. "Why are you taking this?" "You know why." "Are you okay?" "I'll live" her answers were non committal and vague as she tried to grab the bottle from Snapes hands. "Tell me the truth Gwen." "I'm fine Severus; I'm taking it to keep the visions from over powering me that's all. I need a life besides these visions. I don't even take it that often." "I came up with this potion for that purpose Gwen but what I don't understand is why you need it. Why don't you have control?" "I don't know. Please don't start." "Gwen I'm concerned, I still love you know I remember the night we first made love." "Sev." Gwen closed her eyes her breathing slowed as she remembered that night so clearly,
"Are you sure I look okay?" "Gwen you look magnificent" DO you know who it is that sent this?" She asked holding the mask up to her face. Narcissa smiled, "not the faintest although I do remember Lucius saying that you were in for a special evening." Gwen sighed, "I've been getting gifts and such all year and now I finally get to discover who it is." She jumped up excitiedly as she took one last look in the mirror. "You better get going or you are going to be late." Gwen's eyes widened as she started running out of the room and out of the Slytherin common room with cat calls following her. "Shut up" she yelled as she headed to the entrance her skirts flying behind her. Once Out of the common room she stopped and took a deep breath, before heading to the astronomy towers. She stared as she saw the stairs lit with candles leading to the tower in awe she gathered her skirts in her hand and started to climb it was at the fourth stair that she saw the silver rose, she picked it up and smiled as she smelled it, She looked to the eight stair and saw the next, and the next. She climbed the stairs quickly picking the roses up until she had a perfect dozen. Finally she reached the top. Putting her mask on she stepped up onto the landing. And there he was, in mask. "Good Evening. Thank you for coming." He said in a voice that made her heart pound. "Thank you for all the gifts and trinkets." "Mere gestures that pale next to you." Gwen smiled as she smelled the roses, "So what did I do to deserve all this? I don't even know who you are." "Gwenyver you stole my heart years ago, when you walked into the Slytherin common room and hexed the hell out of Lucius for having the audacity to call you names." Gwen smiled at the memory, "all that tells me is that you were in Slytherin." "I had never forgotten about you, but when I say you on the platform and you gave me a hard time I just had to have you hence here we are." Gwen gasped and turned Red, "Severus Snape." She took a step forward and reached for his mask. "Don't leave it on tomorrow will be soon enough to unmask." He said lowering himself to kiss her. Gwen sighed as his lips touched hers; she dropped the roses and raised her arms to encircle his neck. His hair with a slightly greasy feel due to many hours over the caldron. The kiss deepened, Severus pulled back. "No don't." "But I." "Don't stop please." Gwen looked Severus in the eyes, "I've been in love with you since the first day on the train when you told me to change into my robes. Please Severus don't make me beg make love to me." Gwen said it in a sultry horse voice that was almost desperate. "Gwen..." Severus for the first time in his life was speechless, he tried to be honorable but he watched as she unbuttoned her robes and let them fall, she shivered as she stood in a sheath of silver silk. "You are so beautiful." He whispered as he stood back to take her all in, She was small Petite, with midlength black hair that was straight, her skin glowed like alabaster in the candlelight. Unable to control himself he stepped forward claiming her lips, his hands working their way up and down her back, "Are you sure?" he whispered against her neck as he kissed it. "I am in love with you." She whispered back, as she started to unbutton his black waistcoat. With a sense of urgency clothes were removed hastily. The fire burning deep and fast. Severus picked up his wand and transfigured the roses into a bed, before picking Gwen up and placing her on top of his robes,( the quickly he put a locking charm on the door. "Just in case" he whispered as he leaned down and kissed Gwen again, then he kissed her again. And again. Their kisses quickly deepened she sighed as she, ran her hands through his hair and started breathing heavily. With a groan Severus pinned her to the bed, before dipping down and capturing a nipple. Slowly he worked it to a perfect point, and then captured the next. Gwen moaned and whispered his name. Swept up in the moment he let go of her wrists, with a look of mischief she giggled, He wasn't sure exactly what she was up to, but then surprise hit him like ice water when he felt her fingers curl around him. Dazed and slightly overwhelmed he let himself explore. She loosed her grip as she gasped as he trailed a finger through her warm, wet softness and that she let go of him completely as he slid that finger inside of her.
"you win," she gasped out. As her eyes widened at the sensations he was creating in her. Smiling he repositioned so that he was between her legs. With one last look and a firm, passionate kiss they became one. Gwen whimpered at first but the pain soon subsided and became an ache for something more. When she groaned against him he started to move, she loved the feel of him on top of her, she met each thrust with enthusiasm. Groaning and trying to concentrate Severus whispered a charm into her ear. Within minutes they were nearing the breaking point, her body calling to his in every way. Their hand laced together above her head, the grip tightening, and with an explosion of pent up passion, they rode the waves their breathing heavy. Collapsing on top of her,)Severus whispered three words, "I love you." He whispered them over and over as he rolled over bringing her with him. Kissing her swollen lips."
Gwen felt his lips as she moaned, Bringing her to reality, "Severus. Stop!" she whispered as she pulled away from the kiss. Her voice horse her cheeks fleshed she looked at Severus with they eyes of a teenager. "WE can't do this." "Who says we can't Gwen. Let me posses you again even if it's just for tonight." He whispered as he kissed her neck. Gwen shook her head no, but slowly her mind started making excuses for it. 'We're married, it's not wrong, you've been alone for so long.' Gwen shook with want for him. "Yes" she whispered softly knowing tomorrow she would regret it.
