Uncertainty
Chapter 3
Ok everyone I'm soooo sorry that its taking me so long to update this. Im having a small case of writers block. I know what I want to happen later on, but Im having problems getting to that point. So Please forgive me if it takes me awhile, after a bit it should speed up.
*thoughts*

Severus Snape stalked into Dumbledore's office and shut the door behind him. "Albus we need to talk."
"What is it my boy?" Albus asked looking up from a stack of papers a foot high on his desk. "I heard that you dismissed your class early, did you hear from . . .
Before he could finish asking, Severus interrupted him "Do you remember how I said something strange was going on with Granger and me? Well its getting even stranger and its driving me CRAZY!!!"
Albus looked at Severus with concern, he had never seen the Potions Professor so rattled. He vaguely remembered the conversation Severus was talking about but he had brushed it off as the mind playing tricks on Severus's tired brain. If it was still bothering him it seemed he was mistaken. (Lately that was happening much more often than it used to.) "Are you sure?" he asked just to make certain.
"Yes Im sure. I bloody knew that she fainted when she was all the way across the bloody school."
Severus bellowed beginning to pace back and forth, "I know where she was and I knew that she was worried and what more, its getting stronger every freakin day!!"
Suddenly Albus Dumbledore's twinkle found its way back into his eyes as he suddenly thought of what might be bothering the two of them.
"Severus." Albus said getting up and walking around his desk "Please calm down, its not helping anything. Here I promise that Ill look into it right away and you. . . you go eat some sweets and take a nap, staying up every night is making you cranky."
Severus looked at him in disbelief seconds away from exploding at the older man. *How dare he tell me to go take a nap like I was a two year old* Just as he was about to start freaking out on him however, the Headmaster looked at him with sad eyes and said "Please Severus, I have an idea but if Im wrong it could cause more damage than good. And you really do need some sleep, its been what 3 days now?" Knowing very well that it was.
"Yes. but . . ." Suddenly the greasy haired Professor deflated like a punctured balloon "Fine." he said sullenly "But no sweets, I hate them."
As Severus stood on the moving stairs leading away from Albus's office he wondered at the fact that he always ended up feeling like a bloody first year around the older man.
When he stepped off the bottom step Severus shook his head amused, deciding it was just Albus. Then he headed off to correct his 5th years tests, what Albus didn't know couldn't hurt him. Besides he wasn't feeling ~that~ tired and just knowing that the Headmaster was going to look into it had lifted a huge weight off of his mind.
The next morning when Hermione left the Medical Wing all she wanted to do was sleep for a thousand years, even though she had just woken up. She went through her day on automatic, barely even listening to her teachers. And even if she had heard the absurd rumors floating around about what was wrong with her she wouldn't have cared a bit. It was like something was sucking all of her energy out of her. Finally after dinner Hermione gave up and collapsed on her bed.
She was asleep within seconds.
