Chapter 10 unexpected actions
Wow 4 months since I updated this. My muse really took an extended vacation this time. I got a little caught up in my crossover fic and left this one for a bit. Now I'm back. Hopefully til the end unless I get deserted again. Did everyone see HP and the Prizoner of Azkaban this week? If not go.

"Hermione?" Harry asked almost desperately "What do you mean Ron saw you kissing Snape?"
"Your joking right?" Neville cut in, wide eyed.
Hermione hung her head and didn't answer. After a minute of silence Harry shook his head and gently put his fingers under Hermione's chin, raising her eyes to his. Looking in her confused brown eyes he softened his look and asked her gently
"Hermione what exactly happened?"
"Well," Hermione began softly "Draco and I met in the library and went down to the potions lab to work on the Wolfsbane potion. Draco forgot his notes and went to get them so Sev-Professor Snape" She corrected hurriedly "started to work on the potion. My robes were too hot and heavy to work in so Professor Snape applied a cream so I wouldn't be in danger of potion spills getting on my skin" She stopped and looked uncertain.
"And?" Neville prodded "You two just jumped on each other? Was there something in that cream you think?"
"No!" Hermione cut in angry at the accusation "There was nothing in it.I know that"
"Of course there wasn't Mione" Harry soothed, shooting a warning glance at Neville. "So then what happened?"
A slight tinge of pink appeared on her cheeks as she thought about all that had occured just a half an hour before. Harry and Neville, seeing her blush raised eyebrows and glanced at each other.
"Hermione?" Neville asked suddenly "Who kissed who?"
Hermione, taken aback, thought about it.
"I'm.... not sure" She finished on a sigh. "Maybe me? Or him? I don't know!"
She turned scared eyes to Harry and Neville
"What do I do?"
"Nothing" Harry said finally "I'm sure Snape wants to forget all about it too"
A slightly hurt look entered Hermione's eyes and she said in a small voice
"You think he'll forget about it?"
"Well yeah" Harry said before stopping and looking at Hermione fully. As another thought struck him he asked hesitantly
"Mione? You do want him to forget right? I mean, you're not lusting over Snape or anything are you?"
Hermione turned a slightly guilty looking face to Harry and Neville
"I'm not sure"
"Not sure?" Neviile repeated in a slightly dazed voice.
"Well it was.... nice" Hermione answered struggling for words.
"Nice?" Neville repeated again.
"He wasn't kissing me to prove a point to the common room because he is a Griffindor and Ron treated me badly" Hermione explained hotly "He didn't mean to kiss me at all I think. He was attracted to me. Not the fact that I am Head Girl, me"
Harry, deciding to put off his horror until he was alone, teased
"So the git's got some talents other than potion making huh?"
"Very funny Harry" Hermione scowled at him
"So again" Neville broke in "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to talk to him" Hermione decided. "Find out everything once and for all"
"When?" Harry asked. "I don't think in the middle of potions would be a good idea."
"No of course not" Hermione answered "I'm going now"
She heaved herself to her feet and marched over the the portrait with a determined air. Harry and Neville watched her go silently. Once she was out of sight they turned to each other
"Think he'll hex her on sight?" Neville asked
"I'd rather her hexed than another round of kissing with Snape" He shivered.
"Well the good news is Ron will stay as far away from her as possible now." Neville said happily
"I don't know what was worse" Harry said glumly "Ron making her life hell or Snape"
"Yeah I see your point" Neville answered "So... chess?"
"Why not" Harry sighed

I know there was no actual Snape in this chapter but the next one will be all him, Draco, and the Bloody Baron. Oh what fun!
