Story One: ~*Holly Berries*~

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I walked up to Snape's door with a small smile on my face. I smoothed out the dressed I hoped he'd like. It was tight, short, satin, Slytherin green with Gryffindor red trim. I had finished the festive ensemble with a holly berry pin. He had told me the password earlier, it was rather clever no one would think he'd use it. In a low whisper I spoke the words,

"Holly berries." The wall opened in a door-like manner and as it did it reviled Snape standing there waiting for me. He gave me a coy smile as I stepped forward he placed his hands on my waist pulling me in and close to him. As the wall closed we kissed deeply as I noted the mistletoe he had so carefully hung above his door. He smirked as the kiss ended noticing my discovery,

"You could have just kissed me dear." I told him he nodded,

"Perhaps, but this way you had to kiss back. You look very sexy in that dress." I smiled I knew he'd like it, he lead me to the warmth of his fire place. He had me sit in a leather wing back chair facing the small Christmas tree to the left of his own matching chair. On the tree there were a few odd ornaments and small charmed lights on it with a star on top. The only reason he had the tree was on my request. I had told him,

"If we are spending Christmas in your chambers may we have a small tree to brighten the place and that I may put your gift under?" He had consented to it only to please me, there sat my gift under the little thing it was warped in the same green as my dress was but was toped with a sliver bow. Next to it was another box that wasn't there the day before it was wrapped in red and had a gold bow on it. Snape watched me as I looked over the dark sitting room.

"My sweet would you care for some egg nog?" He asked. I nodded,

"Please." He taped his wand on the end table between us and two glass mugs with holly berry patterns embossed on them, filled with the sweet liquid. I took mine up with a sip,

"Thank you, I think it time for you to open your gift." I told him he went over to the tree and took up both packages and handed me the red one.

"Ladies first and a merry Christmas." I smiled as he handed me the box. "Now don't go with the usual you shouldn't haves. To late I all ready did." He told me with a smirk.

"Thank you." I unwrapped the flat box and took off the lid to revile tissue paper. I folded the paper back and there lie a silk piece of fabric. I took it out it showed to a very slinky nighty of holly left green and had holly berries on the bottom hem. Looking up at Snape I saw a grin on his lips and I could tell in his minds eye he could see me in that sin.

"Now why did you get me something that would only be on for a short time?" I purred. He leaned over to my ear and purred right back,

"I made sure it would look as good on the floor as it would you." I giggled and stood leaving the wrappings on my seat,

"Well you open your gift as I go and put on mine." I went to his rest room and took off my dress removing the pin from it and slipped on the nighty and placed the pin on its front. I folded my dress and set it on the sink. After letting down my hair I opened the door to see Snape's long slender hands turning over the top hat I have given him. In the spirit of the season I had place a cluster of holly in it's brim.

"Thank you, how did you know I needed one?" He asked. I walked over to him,

"You said the parities you had to go to were black robes, so I figured you'd look perfect with it on." He turned and looked me over with a smirk curled on his lips. I took the hat gently from his hands and placed it beside our mugs on the table. I slid into his lap and kissed him deeply, he chuckled.

"Lovely as always." He told me before running his hands down my sides. We kissed for a few more moments his kisses traveled down my neck to my shoulders then paused as he whispered in my ear,

"Shall we continue this in my room?" I nodded yes as he lifted me and carried me to his room. He let my feet down to the ground as we reach the thresh hole he closed the door with his foot. Caressing my legs he played with the hem of the nighty and slid it up over my head. He looked over my red under garments with holly berries on them.

"Aren't we festive tonight?" He growled to me dropping the nighty we both watched as it fell to the floor,

"You're right it does look lovely there." I told him he lay his hands on my shoulders and ran them down my arms then tenderly ran his finger tips over my bare midriff. I let out a small groan as he did this and kissed my neck. The potions master chuckled as he guided me to his bed and laid me down on it. He removed his robes so he was only dressed in his black silk boxers that have holly berries embroidered on the left legs hem. I giggled at this,

"And you said I was festive?" He trailed kisses up my navel and between my breast, finally to my lips. He laid down beside me and I had the chance to whisper in his ear,

"I love you." He stopped kissing me and whispered in my own his warm lips brushing against it,

"I love you as well Hermione." Two loud voices called in my ear,

"HERMIONE, HERMIONE, HERRRRRRMMMMMIIIIIIIONEEEEEEE!" I awoke with a start seeing Ron and Harry leaning over me. Harry shook his head,

"Gees you were out like a light ''''''Mione. Merry Christmas it's 1:00 in the morning." Ron laughed as asked,

"Good dreams you were smiling." I shrugged as the room came into focus. I looked at the table in front of me there laid my school books with my papers and quill next to them. On my bag was the holly pin. I looked at Ron and Harry saying,

"That is the last time I fall asleep doing my potions home work."
