Snape looked down at the unconscious Hermione in his arms. Using his thumb he traced her slightly parted lips. He longed to kiss her soft pink lips. It took all of his self control not to. With a sigh he picked her up into his arms and walked over to the fire place. Her set her down on her feet and held her up against his body. Opening a small jar he took out some floo powder tossing it into the fire place. As the flames turned a brilliant green he mumbled the pass word.
"wolf bane" Picking Hermione back up he stepped into the green flames, Snape and Hermione were taken to his sleeping quarters.
Stepping out of the fire place Snape walked over to his bed and laid Hermione down gently. Pulling the covers over her sleeping form he took one last glance at her and left back to his office through the fire place.

The next day Hermione woke to find herself in a big four poster bed with black sheets and curtains. Holding her head she sat up.
"Where am I?" she spoke out loud only to be answered by the most unlikely person or who she thought to be the most unlikely person.
"In my sleeping quarters." Hermione's head shot up in Snape's direction. "You passed out from the potion I gave you."
He walked over feeling her forehead and looking her over. "Well, at least it didn't make you too sick." Taking out his wand he made a plate of food appear along with milk and orange juice. "You are going to have to stay in bed for a day or two. All of your teachers know and Dumbledore said it was fine if you stayed here in my quarters. Since it's best that you aren't moved for a day or two." Hermione tried to let it all soak into her mind but her mind didn't seem to want to let it.
"But I thought that the effects would be over with. You said it wouldn't take to long for them to wear off." Snape rubbed his temples for a moment.
"I know but I wasn't expecting you to get sick. But some people get sick when they are given a cure. Others do not." Hermione nodded with a sigh.
"All right but what am I going to do all day?" Snape stood.
"I suggest you get some rest." Snape walked over to the fire place. "I will be back at lunch."
The day went by quickly for Snape. Even though he wished that he hadn't been in such a bad mood about having a student in his quarters since it seemed to be bugging him just as much as everyone else who was around him. Even though Hermione was a good student and wouldn't do anything it still didn't help his nerves.
Snape couldn't stand having her so close when he was like he was every night. He couldn't deny that he wanted Hermione with a passion that ran as deep as the bone, but there was also something else there that he couldn't explain.
Finally night came and Snape went back to his office to get some sleep, since he couldn't very well sleep in the same bed let alone room with Hermione. He had taken her dinner an hour before and was very tired. With a sigh he laid down in the sleeping bag and dosed off. An hour or two later Snape woke up to find Hermione in his arms. With a gasp he realized he was in his bed. How he had gotten there he didn't know.
He was about to get up when he realized how peacefully she was sleeping. He watched her closely not want to wake her up. 'damn..she is so wonderful and perfect.' He thought with a sigh. Hermione suddenly moved closer pressing into him. Snape nearly moaned as she did. He hadn't realized how much his body had reacted to his dream or her being so close to her all of the sudden.
He thought of moving but didn't want to knowing if he woke her, she wouldn't be able to sleep again because of the potions affects on a persons body. Snape laid his head down and fell asleep his last thoughts of the sleeping girl in his arms and how wonderful she was. The next morning Hermione woke to find herself wrapped in Snape's arms. She let out a small cry waking him up. Wide eyed she stared at him.
"wh..what are you doing?!" Snape blinked and realized once again where he was.
"I..um.." Snape for once didn't have an answer. He got up in a rush nearly running into the bathroom. Snape shut the door quickly behind him locking it. Hermione stared at the door in shock. Shortly after she heard the lock click she realized that Snape had turned on the water. Deciding that she didn't want to see Snape nude when he came out she rolled over to advert her eyes.
A short while later Snape stepped out of the shower. He walked out of the door into his quarters to get clean cloths. Forgetting who was in his bed he walked out nude and then stopped realizing that Hermione was still there. She had rolled over hearing the door open forgetting that Snape would probably be nude. She stared wide eyed at him and his nude form.
Both Hermione and Snape stared at each other in horror. Hermione couldn't tear her eyes away from Snape's lean, pale, muscular body. She felt heat creeping through her neck and face, blushing. Snape was frozen in embarrassment. Snape didn't seem to know what to do but neither did Hermione at this point.
