Chapter 12: Snape's POV

Snape could see over his shoulder Draco and Hermione kissing and for some reason he felt sad. He had no idea why he would care but he did. Was he falling for Hermione? No! That could, would and should never happen. Right? "You are old enough to be here dad," he told himself. "And she is a student." But this did not stop that feeling he had. Then when Hermione slapped Draco and came to walk by him he felt happy. "Pull your self together Serverus. This is not the time," Snape was fighting his inner mind when Hermione spoke to him. "Do YOU think we are going to survive this war?" she seemed to be looking for something to stop her mind from thinking. Snape looked over at her. "If we all stand together then, yes I think we came survive." (That was a good answer) he told himself. It seemed to make Hermione happier too. All three of them walked in silence now as they entered to forest. No matter how many times you go into the forest, it still scares you. So Hermione and Snape had to control their urge to jump up at every little movement. Once they had finally got to the spot, Draco seemed to think it was best to try and talk with Hermione before Harry and the others got their. "Hermione look I'm sorry. It's just I have been fighting my liking for you for a long time now and I couldn't help it," he said. He did look sorry but Hermione was still not too happy with being call a slut. She was about to tell him it was OK when a very familiar voice spoke from behind them. "I'm sorry too," it said, "For you all are now going to die."
