Two Months later
"Hello, Severus," Remus Lupin grinned widely. "I wasn't expecting you this morning. You're not due to teach my class until this afternoon. Hermione was adamant about leaving for her parents house, early."
Severus Snape stepped inside Lupin's Office with a dark scowl on his unusual looking face. His look always told that Severus was likely handsome once. But no one had bothered to try and notice.
"You're visiting the girl's parents, Lupin?" Snape said dryly. "Next you'll be telling me that your new shag of the month is your fiancé. Really, so small of you, Lupin. Hermione is so young and likely has lots of lovers meeting mummy and daddy. I wouldn't view this trip as nothing, Remus."
Remus scoffed furiously and slammed a book onto his desk. "Dammit, Severus, why are you so hateful toward us? Can't you possibly think that I'm in love with her and am incredibly happy with her at my side? Can't you even think that it's possible that despite my being an old man, this sexy young woman just might love me in return? What the hell is wrong with that?"
Snape was speechless. The idea of Remus being in love wasn't difficult to phantom, but thinking of Hermione loving Remus in return was insane. Especially since they'd only been seeing each other for two months and Hermione was only twenty-two years old and Remus was in his forties.
"Nothing, I guess," Severus admitted sharply. "But I think you're being played for a fool."
"Then the hell with you, you blind old bat!"
Remus then stalked out of his Office, leaving a stunned Snape in his wake.
