*************THE SIZE OF A MANS HAND************

Severus turned in bed; he had never realized how big and empty his bed was. But now, trying to sleeep there alone, his bed felt so empty.

His thoughts drifted back to Christmas, and his weddingnight. At the thought of his young wife he smiled, all though it was a sad smile. The night had been wonderful, but too short, and when the holiday was over, Dumbledore had insisted on Hermione returning to her dorm, leaving Severus to try to find his sleep on his own.

He sighed heavily; he missed her so much! They had spent the whole Christmas breake together, and he had gotten sort of used to her company. Never before had he enjoyed the constant company of another person like he had with his young wife. They had spent a lot time in bed, of course, but he didn't miss her for the sex only. They had shared thoughts, oppinions, had conversated with each other for hours, discussed potions, magic, or more simple things as favourite food etc.

Before they got married he usually spent his evenings correcting homework, reading about the newest discoverys in potions and DADA, and he used to feel perfectly happy about it. But now theese activities didn't appeal to him any longer. He didn't want to read alone, he wanted to read the latest article with his young wife!

And he certently didn't want to go to sleep alone, he could still smell her scent on the pillows, or at least he could make himself believe he could, all though the damn house elves had changed on his bed since Hermione moved back to the Gryffindore tower.

He closed his eyes and tried to sleep again, but someone knocking on his door interrupted his sleep. He sighed, and tried to will away the one outside his door, but another knock made him realise thar it was not working. He opened his eyes and went out of the bed.

He opened the door, and looked into to the dark and empty corridore. Empty?

"Hello?" he asked the darkness "Is there anybody out there?"

He heard the movement of soft fabric, and Potters face came into vision, floating in the air.

"Potter?" The Potions Master spat his name out, and then he was struck with feare.

"Hermione, is she all right?"

Harry stuttered, "Er, yes, I was just wondering, if you by any chance had any chocolate?"

"WHAT?!" Snape yelled, and the young student in front of him whinced. "Is this some kind of joke? It's past midnight, and you're waking me up to ask me if I have any chokolate?"

"Sorry, Sir!" Harry looked at his own feet, but you see, Hermione.."

Snape interrupted him, "What about Hermione!?" He sounded a bit worried now, perhaps there was something wrong with her after all, .?

"Well, you know how pregnants often wakes up with the most crazy needs?" Harry asked his teacher carefully, and Snape nodded, and Harry found his courrage to continue. "Well, Ron told me that when his mother was expecting Ginny she had the habit of craving pickled slugs in the middle of the night, so I guess we're lucky, but."

"Will you get to the point!?" again he was interrupted by his teacher.

"Sorry, Professor, The point is that Hermione have started to crave chokolate in the night, she has been waking us up all week, and well, we're out: No more chokolate, and she's really upset."

"Upset?" Snape asked, "Hermione wants chokolate, and she's upset?! For the sake of Merlin, tell her to go to sleep, she needs it!"

"No!", Harry said bravely.

"What?" Snape looked amazed, did the boy just deny to to as his teacher told him?

"Sorry Professor, but you have to tell her: she's really upset, she's kind of desperate, and when I left the tower Ginny and Ron had to hold her, to prevent her form waking the others to look through their suitcases hunting for chokolate.She is crying, and, well, she's your wife.If you don't have any chokolate; then you tell her!"

Snape looked at his student, Harry was serious, he had to go to his young wife to tell her that there was no chokolate.

[This is what happens when you marry a child!] He told himself, as he found his own invisibillity cloak, and followed Potter to the Gryffindor Tower.

******************

As the two men entered Hermiones dorm Snape realised that it proabably wouldn't be enaugh to preach common sence to Hermione, She was pacing the room, tears running down her cheeks. She looked as a drug-addict with a toothache.

"Hermione?!" He said softly as he took off his invisibility cloak.

Her face brightened,

"Severus, you are coming with chokolate for me!" She flung herself towards him, giving him a hug.

"Well, " he stuttered, and to his annoyance he heard a small giggle from Harry; Snape wasn't so intimidating towards his young wife as he was against his other students.

"I'm sorry Hermione, I don't have any."

"But I need chokolate!" she sobbed, "I think I'll get crazy if I don't get any!"

"At least we will.." Ron muttered from his corner, and Snape didn't even bother to rebuke him, as he realised the truth in the young mans words.

"Dumbledore!" Ginny said all of a sudden, Snape turned around, "where?"

"No, " She said, "He's not here, but he has chokolate, don't you think?"

************

"Chokolate-covered candy slugs!" Harry whispered to the gargoyle whit a shudder.

That sounded disgusting, [I hope that's not the only sweets Dumbledore have!] He said to himself as the hidden door opened.

**************

Snape turned in bed, trying to sleep.

[Well, this chocolate-thing turned our unexpected well], he smiled to himself, and moved closer to the warm body at his side. As Dumbledore came to rescue with a whole bag of chokolatefrogs, he also agreed to Hermione moving back in with Severus, permanently. It would soon be inpossible to hide her condition anyway, and it was obvious that she needed someone to take care of her needs, as the headmaster diplomatically put his words when he delivered the chokolate.,

Severus Snape smiled as Hermione turned in her sleep, pushing her belly against him; suddenly he felt a small movement under the tight skin. Like a message from inside, Hermione was asleep, it felt like the baby was talking directly to him!? He stroked the belly with a soft caress, and was rewarded with another kick.

With a happy smile the Potions Master of Hogwarts fell asleep together with his family.
