shorter then the first but, I promise that I'll try to update every Monday.
Chapter 1...CONTINUED
Dumbledore cleared his throught in attempt to catch Severus' attention, "Severus...please move back so Poppy can check Ms. Granger."
Caught of guard he stepped back so quickly, you'd have thought he was buned. His gaze landed on Hermione then To Albus. Trying to clus the old man into his conclusion by using his eyes to exspress himself.
Albus curiously glanced back and forth between the door, Severus, and Hermione. Finally recognition settled into his bright blue eyes.
Severus watched as Poppy checked the young girl over.
"Albus...come over here please." Poppy Pomfey's voice broke the silence in the room.
Albus glided towards him, his head bent as Poopy began whispering things into his ear. His face fell in slight dismay.
Sirius Black, who had been aquitted over the summer after the Ministery spotted Peter Petigrew in Diagon Ally, spoke up."Was she beaten?"
Remus Lupin intrupted, before Albus could answer, "Yeah by a drunk, by the smell of it."
Minerva who had stayed close to the door began a heated argument with Sirius and Poppy on what to do with the girl. Dumbledore shook his head in amusement while Severus stood close, enough to the bed, just in case Hermione needed him.
Hermione began to stir and she winced when she began to sit up, even though Poppy had healed her she was still quite sore.
The movement upon the bed had Severus' head snaping to look towards it. He quickly helped her sit up. "Are you okay?" His voice filled with what could have been concern, not sure himself what exactly it was seeing as he himself was unsure of its meaning.
She looked up with tears in her eyes, and shook her head no. Before he knew what was happening she had flung her arms around him and was sobbing.
He ackwardly patted her back,"Its alright...um it will be okay..shh..it'll be okay. Erm...go ahead and cry, get is all out." He was in a very ackward situation, not being someone to comfort others.
Everyone in the room stood quietly and watched with amazed eyes.
Hermione turned in his arms and regaurded everyone else in the room, Poppy was the first to ask who's turn it was. So she, Hermione, told the story, unaware of the seriously apsord thoughts runing through Severus' mind.
They were along these lines,'Good God! Shes actually willing to touch me. It can't be! Shes so smal...and beautiful...hold up where did that come from? How come I've never noticed it before? I wouldn't mind...' His thoughts were cut off when Hermione began to cry again, he wraped his arms around her, in a more ritual hug of comfort. "Shh.. Hermione its okay... it won't happen again I promise." His eyes widened at his own words,'What the Hell is going on with me?'
Remus and Sirius huddled in a cornor whispering, "What the Hell is he pulling at? Shes not even emotionally well and he is groping her!" Sirius whispered harshly.
"Your a fool Sirius! Have you ever seen him act that way? I haven't! Besides they are bonded now." Remus quietly replied.
Sirius' head snapped up and he watched Hermione In Severus' arms."Your not serious! I don't see anything."
"Squint your eyes," Dumbledore interupted.
When Sirius caught sight of the glow around them he stood still in...shock.
