Chapter 2: The Journey Back to Hogwarts

A/N: I own nothing. I would really like to own Severus but I think Hermione might kick my butt. Hehe.


Severus brought the girls their school robes. When he walked near them Lavender and Parvati jumped, only Hermione was comfortable with his presence.

"Get dressed." He snapped at them. As he stood like a overgrown bat in front of them. Hermione was still wearing the robe that Severus gave her the night before. She took it off and changed into her school robe. She walked it over to Professor Snape.

"Professor? Your robe." She said meeting his eyes. His eyes lighted from the stern look he gave the other girls. He took it from her and laid it over his arm.

"Move." He yelled. Lavender and Parvati quickly ran forward. Hermione slowly moved away from Professor Snape and followed the girls. Severus walked behind her.

"Thank you." He slowly whispered to Hermione. She slowly looked behind her and smiled. She slowed down a little more and walked besides him. "Are you okay? Are you in any sort of pain?" He asked her while still looking forward.

"I'm a little sore, but nothing to bad." She looked up at him.

"I have to give you each an anti-contraceptive potion once we get back. I hope it will counteract the spell he put on you and the other girls."

"What spell?" Lavender asked loudly.

"It is Lord Voldmort's plan to impregnate you girls, especially Hermione. He's hoping that being impregnate by a deatheater will make you convert over to his side."

"Never. I rather kill myself that birth a Malfoy brat." Parvati yelled. Hermione just looked up at Severus who looked down at her. I hope Hermione doesn't feel the same way as Parvati does. Snape thought.

"I think we should rest." Snape said point out a little clearing in the forest. With that Lavender and Parvati sat down on a big log and discussed the horrors that happened the night before. Hermione, though, walk over to Professor Snape.

"Professor. Do you believe the potion will work? If not will it hurt the child?" She asked him.

"Why does it matter to you? You probably have the same attitude as Miss Patil." Snape retorted at her.

"Professor, I do care. It is not the child's fault for what happened." She said.

"I don't know what will specifically happen but I know the child will sustain severe damage." Severus looked her with the same soft eyes as before.


Lavender and Parvati were watching the interaction between their evil potions professor and Hermione. "I can't believe she's talking to him. He raped her late night." Parvati whispered to Lavender.

"Maybe he didn't. We just weren't the lucky one last night." Lavender responded.

"He did I hear Lord Voldmort congratulating him on it. It happened. I just don't know how she can look him in the face after that."


"I'm not taking the potion then Professor."

"Excuse me, you rather give birth to my child then and be eternally bound to me by what happened last night?" Severus looked at her like she was mad. Hermione didn't know what to say. She sat down in the dirt and looked to the floor.

"Why do you always have to be so cruel? You were completely different after what happened last night. Was it all an act, just so I don't rat you out in front of your dark lord?" She said while her eyes filled with tear.

"Miss Granger, Hermione," He knelt by her. "I can't talk about this in front of present company. We shall continue this conversation when a good time comes." He whispered to her. With that he stood to his full height and gave her his hand to help her up.

"Let's get moving before night falls." He said to Lavender and Parvati.

A few hours later the tired beaten group arrived to Hogwarts. Professors McGongall and Dumbledore were waiting in the doorway for them.

"Oh, dears are you already." McGongall looked over the girls. Lavender and Parvati hugged McGongall and both started going on the horrors of the night. "Off to Poppy you all go." Lavender and Poppy both followed McGongall to the medical wing, but Hermione stayed behind.

"Hermione, you should go to the medical wing with Professor McGongall. You need to be checked over and have the necessary potions administrated." Professor Dumbledore stated. Hermione looked at Professor Snape and shook her head.

"No, I'm fine. Can I please be allowed to have a few minutes with Professor Snape?" Hermione spoke to Professor Dumbledore.

"Miss Granger, I recommend you go to the medical wing as Dumbledore advised and take the potions." Professor Snape said.

"I will not take any potion. I already told you that. I refuse to."

"Miss Granger, do as your told." Snape snapped.

"No! I already said I wouldn't and there is nothing you can say to make me."

"Miss Granger, you know if you don't go take the potion there is a possible that you might become pregnant with Professor Snape's child." Dumbledore spoke softly to her.

"And if I do and the spell is more powerful than the potion I will hurt the baby and I don't want that. I rather take my chances and if I have to give birth to a healthy child then worry about what will happen to him."

"Severus, what do you have to say about this?"

"I don't have an opinion on this. It shouldn't have happened." Snape explained. "I believe though Miss Granger should be allowed to choose whatever she believes fits her." Hermione looked up at him and smiled.

"Thank you. If you don't mind I would like to go shower and get cleaned up." Hermione said.

"Of course you may and I believe you and Severus here need to talk about just in case." Dumbledore said with a twinkle in eye.

"If you would find me in the dungeon after you have had time to clean up." Snape turned to her and spoke softly. Hermione nodded and left for Gryffindor tower.

"I don't know what to do and why of all things she would want to carry my baby." Snape spoke out loud.

"She has her reason, Severus, I just hope you are too blind to see them." Dumbledore said and walked away.

"I have no idea what you are talking about." Snape yelled after him.
