Chapter 2

Again don't own hp; Thanks for the great reviews especially Natsuyori and I apologise for my English . Also Hermione is in Her 7th Year sorry I forgot to mention that before.

My mind was whirling everything felt it was happening at once. Yet at the same time it felt, as it was the longest two days of my life. "Now Hermione if you feel up to it I suggest that I order us some breakfast and then we have much to discuss." "Thank you professor but I'm not hungry." At that moment my stomach decided to speak up. Severus glared. "Miss Granger you must take better care of yourself. You ate nothing yesterday, you need to eat." Before I could think about it I shouted "What do you care your not my farther." As I realised what I said and began to cry. Severus stood shocked for a moment. ( I think it was because he was not used to people talking back to him. ) But then he was holding me as I cried. "Hermione I no you won't believe me but care about you more than you'll ever know." He whispered in my ear. After spending the morning talking about things that had no relevance. Severus brought up the subject I had been dreading. " Now Hermione I no you don't want to discuss this but do you want to go to your parents funeral." "of course." I blurted out as ears pricked at my eyes. "Good. Now who do you want to go with you? You are allowed to take one friend and one professor. I sat wondering whom to take when he spoke again "You don't have to make your mind up just yet, just think about it." "Professor I just wanted to thank you." "There is no need to Hermione. Also when we are in private you may call me Severus you are going to be my apprentice." "You mean I really am going to be your apprentice." "Miss Granger I'm shocked the Gryffindor know it all , does know it all." The look on his face was anoth to make me laugh as he was smiling like a little boy in a toy shop. "My gosh did the powerful professor Snape make a joke. Even smile while doing so." "hey I'm capable of it." "Sure you are that's why half the school has bet's on when your going to be refilled as a vampire and the others when they find out you're the devil." "what may I ask have you bet on." After I while of banter we got down to the apprenticeship. "Well as you are still at school I suggest that you spend one night on study and one night with me. Weekends we will alternate one week on one week off. That way I don't think your schoolwork will suffer. Also seeing as you have only one class on Fridays if you wish you may come to my other classes and help teach the first and second years." "You mean I actually get to teach! Me Teach!" "Miss Granger lower the decibels I value my ear drums." For the second time in less than two days I flung myself on Severus Snape. Once I had calmed down a bit Severus continued. "Yes you will actually get to teach you will be able to give and deduct house points and detentions as necessary. While in these classes you will be called Madam Granger and Grade there papers with supervision of course from me." My head was swimming with all this information two days ago I would of agreed with anyone who said professor Snape was an overgrown bat, but now he was the best thing that ever happened to me. "There is just a few things left to talk about today Hermione then you best go back to the Gryffindor common room I'm sure you'll have been missed. The first is when we are not in this room you must refer to me as Professor Snape nothing else or I would Have to punish you. I must keep my look of distaste for you especially in class. If young Mr Malfoy suspect anything both are lives could be at stake do you understand." After staring a few minutes at him. "I do important work for the order and some of which is dangerous if I start to favour Gryffindor's then my cover will be blown. The dark lord may decide to use you to get to me." "I understand it's just well." How could I say to him what happens if I need you. Or want a shoulder to cry on. It was at that moment I think he was reading my thoughts. "If you should require me press this." He handed me my Head Girl badge. "But Professor." "I have modified it into a two way mirror. My password to my rooms is black heart. Also I will set up my spare room for you should you ever need it and it will be connected to your head girl room all you need to do is say my name and step though your full length mirror." "Thank you Severus." And with that I left. The way back to Gryffindor tower I felt like I was flying until bamb. "Watch where your going Mudblood. Or you may end up like your parents." Before I could think I slapped Malfoy with all my might. "Say that again Malfoy and you'll join them." "No Granger it WILL BE YOU." He raised his wand but I was quicker. "expeliarmus." "50 Points from Gryffindor and detention with ME tomorrow night Miss Granger. Mr Malfoy are you alright." "I was sir before that Mudblood attacked me. Yes yes I will deal with her tomorrow night (throwing a glare at me.) but for now mister Malfoy I suggest we get you to the hosptial wing." As they strode of all I could think was it was just an act he has to be nice to Malfoy just an act as I heard a laugh coming from Malfoy all I could do was turn my head back to gryffindor common room. Once I reach the common room I was assaulted by Ginny hugging me "Ohhermione are you alrightwejustfoundoutimsosorryifyouneedanythingjustcallmeharryandronaresoworriedbuttheyhadtogotoquidditichiskippedandtoldthemiwouldgetthemwhenyougotbackareyouokdoyouneedanything." She rambled of. "I'm fine Gin thanks for your concern I just tired and upset. I think I'm going to go to bed for a bit before dinner." "ok Herm but if you need anything just call and I'll tell the boy's not to interrupt you." "Thanks Gin ." My last thoughs before going to bed was at least I know which friend I'm taking to the funeral with me.

AN: This was ginny's rambling Oh Hernione are you alright we just found out I'm so sorry. If you need anything just call me. Harry and Ron are so worried but they had to go to qudditch I skipped. And told them I would get them when you got back. Are you okay do you need anything.
