This is a thank you to all my reviewers. If you want just scroll down and read the new chapter. Then if your kind and not lazy…you will be kind enough to review. Now go read. :D

CanadaChik2128: Thank you. I know I have seen nothing but the Adoption and Marriage Challenges. I have no problem with them some are very good. I would like some free writing though.

Sabrina: I don't know if this is long enough. It sure did take me a while to write though. I had a mini writers block. Thank you for the review!

Cs: Well, Honestly, I hardly see Severus as a talkative person. Maybe if he is on a particularly 'Potions' of course.

PoetryChik: I am a big fan of Granger/Snape. I was searching for a site like LordandLadySnape.net and I found this hate site of the pairing I was really pissed. Anyways, thank you bunches.

Angel4eva3: Well I really didn't have any real 'true' interaction between the pairing in this chapter and I don't think it s really long but it s going to build the plot for the interaction so.. here you go! Oh and Don't worry I ll kill my friend eventually ! HAHA!

Emma Snape: Love the username. Like I said to Angel4eva3. More true interaction between the pairing later. Thanks for your kind review.

Antigonesev: Of course Naobi is a smart girl. She s Naobi! And I think that would be a good enough reason if Severus ever came into my room too ;D

Anarane Anwamane: Just what does your username mean? Thank you for the review!

Chibi06: Let me know when you write the Snape fanfic. I would love to read it. You should make it with Hermione though. I m sorry I just truly love the pairing!

The next morning Hermione woke up, washed up, and put on dark black robes over a muggle dark blue blouse and a slight flare black dress pants. Since she was teaching now, she wanted to give the impression that she wasn't a student anymore. Hermione now wore contacts. She wasn't blind, nearsighted, or farsighted. Hermione just loved the color Moonlight. She cast a one minute hair color spell to see how she would look with long curly black hair. The look was very beautiful with her light complexion, moonlight eyes, and the dark robes. It was just too much of a change. Wanting to be shown as a professor more and being someone completely who she was not, wasn't going to work for her. Hermione watched as her normal golden-brown hair fell across her shoulders down to her side. Instead of the color change Hermione pulled half her hair up and put it in nice half up half down style. Curling the upper half and straightening the bottom Hermione satisfied with her appearance made to her new Arithmany class room.

When Hermione turned into her classroom, she looked around. There were the tables as in the dungeons, with three stools per table. The room was quit dusty. It hadn't been in use for two years of course it would be. The house-elves had been sent to Grimmauld Place to clean. It was also a good place in case an intruder came in. A house elves magic is much different then one of a witch or wizard.

Hermione's classroom was now spotless with help of a couple house-elves that came and dropped her some lunch. Turkey sandwiches. One of her favorite lunches. Hermione was reading one of her Arithmancy books that she had took from the restricted section in the Hogwarts Library, when the door burst open.

"Damn it." Hermione muttered as Laura Ulrich pranced in the room.

"So.. The little child has come to play Professor Arithmancy has she?" Laura questioned in a baby voice.

Hermione was going to mock her and say something very out of character but Ulrich kept talking.

"Listen up, little girl. I walked into the Great Hall and heard Savaree and Adnama talking about last night. You think just because I wasn't present at dinner that you can make a move on my fiancé." During the DADA Professors lecture, Ulrich had moved in front of her table, with both scrawny hands stretched to the side of her.

Hermione smiled and shrugged her shoulders at Laura. In a sweet voice she said "Professor Ulrich." Hermione looked straight in the eye of Laura slammed her book shut and stood. "I have no idea who you think you're talking to, but you bet your arse you won't talk to me like that again!" Hermione s volume in her voice rose higher. "I'm assuming that you're taking medications for these allusions you're having with Severus because as far as I know he would never consider you to be his fiancé!" Hermione voice was now at the point of screaming. "I will do what ever the hell I please when you are present and when you are not, you have no authority over me." Hermione walked towards the door, so she could leave to the library to finish her book. Before she was completely out the door she turned around and smiled at Ulrich again. "Oh, did you know? Severus is a great kisser." Hermione walked out the door, seeing the shocked look on the DADA professors face. Hermione twirled around and stuck only her head into the door to look at Ulrich gaping like a fish." Aww…that's right. You don't know; See you at the Sorting Feast. Professor." She could hear the screams of outrage come out of her classroom. Hermione smiled and walked towards the library.

Hermione walked absent-mindedly into the back of the library, sat at her favorite table; where there was just a little amount of light coming from a small rectangle window. Hermione opened her book and started to read. Soon Hermione finished her book now closed book. Hermione realized that while she was so engrossed in her book someone most likely the house elves had placed a white candle on her table. She looked up at the rectangular window and noticed how dark it really was. Hermione panicked what if she missed the sorting feast. Grabbing her book and walking out of the library she was surprised to see Remus Lupin walking towards her.

Smiling he asked. "How is my favorite Arithmancy professor?"

"Fine, I didn't miss the sorting feast have I?" Remus smiled.

"Of course you did! No, I'm only joking Hermione. I was just coming to get you the students should be arriving any minute now we better hurry up." Remus gently placed his hand on her back and nudged her to keep walking. Even though Hermione was still talking to Remus, she was mainly thinking of the new students, seeing Ginny again; as a student, and well, of course, Severus. Remus and hers conversation were soon over as they stepped in the Great Hall. Only available seat left was one next to Severus and one next to Laura Ulrich.

"Sorry Remus but I'm not sitting next to that wicked woman." Remus smiled and pulled out Hermione s chair. Hermione smiled up at Remus as he went over next to Laura.

Hermione turned and saw Severus staring at her intently with his eyebrow raised. Hermione saw a flick of jealousy pass through Severus eyes as she looked in his onyx eyes.

"You know, I'm waiting for the day Remus will ask Luna Lovegood to marry him…" Hermione whispered to Severus. Severus eyebrow only rose higher with a speck of relief in his eyes. 'Who knew that Severus Snape could be jealous? Ha.' Hermione paused something was wrong. As the Second years through the seventh years came in and sat down, Hermione looked around the Professors table. Why wasn't Minerva leading in the first years? When the Great Hall doors opened, one of the least persons she ever wanted to see was leading the curious first years into the Great Hall.

Draco Malfoy.
