"Hermione, you can't be serious," Severus exclaimed.
Hermione crossed her arms and looked stonily back at him. He was in for it.
"I'm afraid I'm very serious, Severus. That is an awful accusation, and I will not have my husband talking to me like that."
He sighed. He hadn't meant for it to come out so bad. They're only friends.
"Look, I'm sorry I said that you probably shagged Ron Weasley like a rabbit. Okay? Can I sleep in the bed now?"
Hermione's eyes softened. Ah, so he was getting somewhere. He took a step towards her.
"Severus? Couch. Now."
