Chapter 7. Shaking it to the Core Part 2
Disclaimer: I make no money off this. I barely make money at my job so why the heck would fate cut me a break and.... never mind. AHEM I own nothing. I do this for fun.
Now on with the story
..........................................................................................................................
Hermione put her robes on a desk and stood self consciously in front of Severus in a pair of muggle jeans and a tank top. She was relieved when he offered no snide comment about her apparel. In fact, she thought, he barely noticed.
Severus hid his astonishment at how Hermione, whom he always considered a child even at 17, had blossomed into a beautiful young lady. She wasn't pretty in the traditional manner, she had to much intelligence in her eyes as opposed to a vapid, blank look that most attractive women wore. At least the ones he knew. Cursing himself for mentally ogling a student he directed his comments to Hermione briskly
"Make sure your hair is pulled back tightly Miss Granger." He said. Hermione put her hair in a neat bun with a casual flick of her wand and looked at him for his next instructions. Severus mentally calculated the time since she entered. Draco and the Baron must be in position. He figured on having about 2 minutes tops until Mr. Weasley's curiosity got the better of him.
"Please come over here Miss Granger." He said motioning her to stand in front of him facing the door. She complied with no comment and he started to open the jar of creme.
"This will not be painful I assure you." He said watching her eye the jar nervously. "It must be evenly spread onto the skin to work effectively. I trust you have no objection to me applying it?"
Hermione was taken aback by the warmth of his tone and thought she saw a gleam in his eye not normally present. She mentally shook it off
'this is Professor Snape' She thought scolding herself 'He despises students! He is just being cautious due to the potion. He's certainly not the least interested in me.'
She turned an even gaze and smiled slightly at Severus
"Of course Professor" Hermione said politely "We don't want any trouble do we?"
'What?' Severus thought 'Trouble? This girl is nothing but trouble. And her hair smells good. Must be some muggle concoction. Oh yes! She meant trouble with the Wolfsbane potion'
"No, we don't indeed" Severus purred, surprised that his voice didn't shake. It had been a long time since he was nervous around a female and he mentally slapped himself as he realized that Weasley could be down here soon and all the planning could be for nothing. He moved until he was standing directly in front of her with about 6 inches separating them. He softly began to spread the creme over her exposed shoulders and arms.
"The creme takes a few minutes to coat the skin." He said "Please put your hands on my shoulders to prevent it from being smeared"
'What is he talking about?' Hermione thought as she fought to keep her eyes open at the satiny feel of the creme as it spread along her arms. 'My goodness his hands are strong. And soft. Wonder what they'd feel like... STOP!! This is Professor Snape. Now what did he say? Oh yes, put my hands on his shoulders. Not a problem. He smells good. Who would have thought?' Hermione moved her hands to firmly rest on his shoulders.
"I'm going to spread this on your face" Severus said in a deeper than his normal voice. He mentally slapped himself at the shakiness of his voice and hoped that Hermione didn't notice it or that his breathing had accelerated. He slowly began to spread the creme over her cheekbones and forehead. He almost fell over as her eyes closed and she appeared to enjoy his ministrations. Severus stared at her lips. It had been so long since a woman had so obviously enjoyed his touch.
Hermione was enjoying it. Very much so. She was surprised as she barely held back a purr of contentment. Vaguely she wondered why her eyes were closed but dismissed the thought almost as soon as it registered. She had never really had anyone caress her face. Ron was always more interested in Quiddich and what Harry was doing than simply touching her.
'This is nice' She thought, surrendering to the simple pleasure.
Severus faintly heard a noise outside that brought him slightly back to his purpose for being here. He went to make sure that Hermione's hands were on his shoulders and was surprised to see that one hand was idly playing with a strand of his hair.
'Even better' He thought, ignoring the implications.
Rons soft gasp from the doorway, Severus almost smiled in triumph. Ron couldn't see the cream, he would only see him gently tracing the outline of Hermione's lips and her arms around him. He leaned in to make Ron they were kissing when in actuality their lips were an inch apart. Hermione felt his breath on her lips and his nearness even with her eyes closed. Severus heard her moan slightly and forgot about Ron, the plan, being a professor, and everything else he never let himself forget and placed his lips gently on Hermione's.
He never noticed Rons noisy escape as he ran for the steps.
