A/N: I think I missed putting up the "to be continued sign" up on that chapter... I only used it to grab your attention, because I am making a story out of this. I'm going to have him at the spa, mud bath and cucumber and everything else a spa has. I'm sorry to all my little flamers who thought it was dumb, but the number of people who actually liked it outnumber you... so I'm gonna continue and hope I get more reviews. 19 chapters in one day is an amazing feat for me... I can say I'm so proud that all took the time to read the 209 (somewhere around that) words that I bothered to post.

Oh yeah and if I use *blah* his thoughts are visible to the reader...

Starhawk9: Yes, the hair is black. I like it like that... ^_^

Rockluver: Yes, there will be more

A.Person: Yes... people will be walking in on him... ^_^ but who? Read to find out

Leha: It's kind of supposed to seem very childish... because Dumbledore has forced him to do it since Severus started to actually go to Hogwarts School...

And to all my other reviewers... thanks for reviewing... I love you all! ^_^

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or Snape... or the spa... (I wish... I'd go there a lot!)

A startling discovery

Severus Snape decided to go to a spa in Spain, known as the Ecologic Natural Spa. It seemed harmless enough. He received his tourist information, even though he didn't need it... because he was only going for one day... and flipped through the pamphlet as the airline he was on headed towards his destination.
"I think it was a good idea to make a day of this," he said, "I have so much stress." The airline pilot came on, just to say they would be arriving in Italy in 15 minutes. Severus grinned in his usual evil way. No students to bother him and a day to himself... it would be perfect.

The spa owner greeted him the morning he came into the actual building. He had stayed overnight at a hotel because by the time he arrived it would be too late to do much in the spa. He handed in the form of what he wanted to do, all leading up to the final touch of actually washing his hair.
"So, the mud bath first? Excellent choice sir, now, if you would follow me," the owner said, and then led him to one of the attendants, who took him to where the mud baths were. Well, he changed into a robe that the attendant provided (A/N: just for one of my reviewers, you may think of it as pink... offhandedly, I will not give it a color...) and then was taken to his own private bath. It wasn't entirely private, it was a room with other baths in it, but they were individual tubs. Severus took of his robe (A/N: he has a swimsuit on) and settled into the mud. He was given a black mask to place over his eyes if he wanted and the attendant left him to his mud. He settled into it nicely and placed the mask over his face. There weren't many people here yet, and that was good. The thought of *what would I do if someone caught me here?* didn't even run through his head.
"Right this way Miss Granger your bath is over here," came an attendant. Miss... Granger? *Oh no, no, not her!* He lifted the mask from his face and saw Miss Hermione Granger with her bathrobe walking into the room. But... as she looked around, she caught his gaze, and froze. Her mouth moved wordlessly as she saw her professor, Severus Snape, a man she hopefully hated... Imagine, meeting a teacher you despised in a place meant for relaxation...
"Um... I... thi...think... I want... to do something... else first..." Hermione stuttered out to her attendant. Snape kept his eye fixed upon her in an angry gaze and she shifted uncomfortably in the spot where she stood.
"That would be fine," said the attendant, "Where would you like to go?" Hermione held her horrified gaze.
"Anywhere but here," she said, and quickly exited the room, muttering, "Ahem... good to see you Professor..." Severus didn't expect her to acknowledge him, and he prayed now that she wasn't here with her little group of friends. He relaxed once again into the mud bath and covered his eyes. He suspected her horrified look came from realizing people only wore underwear of sorts while in these sorts of things. Maybe this wouldn't be such a bad day. He thinks he scarred one student, but if more come and he can petrify them for life? Well, that just made his day... his spa day was looking better already...

A/N: I think that chapter was a little weak, but... other things will happen... I hope you stay tuned!
