Chapter 7 Hangovers, Questions, Tools, and Disbelief
The rest of the week went by without a hitch, I promised myself that I would never drink that much again. My head was still filled with the remembrance of the pain I had to endure the next day. What I couldn't believe the most was Severus, he was definitely hitting on me, but the thing that surprised me was that I really didn't have a problem with it. I have always respected him as a professor and as a person. He was always putting his life on the line for the Order (A/n: Tries to ignore the nagging thought of HBP in the back of my mind) and Dumbledore trusts him, so he can't be all that bad. The thing is I really don't remember what happened after that, I woke up the next morning with a hangover the size of Europe.
"Wake up sleepy." I heard a voice call out to me.
"Go away," I murmured drowsily, pulling my pillow over my face.
"Accio," The voice said, and my pillow flew up off of my head and into the hands of a shadowy figure that I couldn't quite make out. Although my vision was blurry, I knew that it was Harry standing there with my pillow, trying to coax me to wake up.
"Harry please, I am very hung over, now if you will give me my pillow I won't have to hex you." I groaned, covering my face with my hands.
"I know what will cure that," He said grinning mischievously. He walked over to me and placed a gentle kiss on my forehead.
"Harry, what did I tell you yesterday about that?" I asked looking up at him imploringly.
"Well I have never…" He said in a mocking tone. "Miss Granger I think your mind is in the gutter, honestly."
"Well what are you going on about?" I smiled.
"Snape told me to give you this potion to cure your hangover." He dangled the potion vial in front of my eyes. I reached up to grab it, but he put it behind his back, smiling at me playfully. He kept doing this until I gave up with an exhausted sigh. He held it up for me one more time, I grabbed it and he came crashing down on top of me. He kissed me full on the lips.
"This must be love," He replied after breaking the kiss, staring directly into my eyes "Because I am kissing you with morning breath."
I laughed and took the potion, and right away I began to feel immensely better. Harry was still on top of me, his weight preventing me from going anywhere.
"Do you mind?" I asked looking up at him, "I really do have a lot of reading to do."
"Before I let you go, I have a couple of questions to ask you." He said looking me in the eye. I just kept silent, avoiding his gaze. Who knew what type of questions he would ask, and maybe Ginny had told him about Flourish and Blotts, she could have seen Malfoy. Harry continued, "How did Snape know that you would be hung over?"
I launched into the whole explanation of how I got drunk while Snape and I were having a conversation in the kitchen.
"Have you looked at what you are wearing?" He asked intently. I lifted up the sheet as far as I could while Harry was lying on top of me. I was in shock; I was only in a bra and a pair of underwear. I really didn't remember changing out of my clothes. I would have to ask Severus what happened, I know he wouldn't have done anything to violate me or at least I was pretty sure he wouldn't have. I came up with a lie to satisfy Harry's carnal craving for berating Snape.
"I pulled them off after stumbling here last night to go to bed. I remember that because I remember stubbing my toe on the corner of my bed." I lied. I had to find out what went on last night.
He looked at me thoughtfully, accepting my less than mediocre answer without a second thought, and he got off of me. I was slightly disappointed, but I knew it was for the best, as I had a lot of work to do.
"Hermione, what happened to your hair?" Harry asked in awe. I had totally forgotten about what Ginny did to me the day before.
"Is it bad?" I asked, throwing my hands up to cover my head.
"No it's beautiful." He replied. With that he left.
So here I am now devouring my last book for MWU. I had chosen a comfortable chair in the drawing room and had a tall glass of lemonade by my side. I had tried many times to talk to Severus, but he would always avoid my gaze and never acknowledge my presence. When I questioned Ginny about it, she turned bright red and refused to answer any questions. As I sat in my chair I became so involved in my book that I didn't hear someone come into the room.
"Miss Granger," The voice said. I looked up, startled, to see Dumbledore looking down at me.
"Hello, headmaster," I replied with a smile, placing the book on my lap.
"Miss Granger, I would like to know when you plan on visiting your father?" He asked gazing at me thoughtfully through his half moon spectacles. The truth was, I was afraid to go see him, to go see the pain I had inflicted. I was really dreading it, but I knew I had to do it eventually.
"I will go visit him, after my classes tomorrow." I said tentatively.
"Don't worry, he will be happy that you visited, I think it's just what he needs, to make him better," He replied smiling, "Now if you will excuse me Miss Granger, I have other business to attend to."
I turned back to my book, wondering the state of which my Dad was in.
"Won't she get suspicious, My Lord?" I asked through the mask covering my face.
"Don't question me," He replied in his high-pitched voice, "Just make sure that you give it to her, it will be more useful than you think. Know this, it will only work for a certain period time during the day, and also when she is the most vulnerable."
"Yes, My Lord, I will do as I am told." I bowed and took my place back in the circle tucking the items into my robes. If I did as the dark lord said this would unravel the plans that I already have, and yet it could work to the dark lord's advantage. She has strong determination and will, of course, but if I used these tools it would ruin everything.
"That muggle – loving old fool thinks he has me outsmarted, but he is wrong, we will get to Potter and the Order, and one by one we will pick them all off. Since I am in an extraordinarily good mood today, I had Wormtail find me some entertainment for tonight's festivities, have fun."
Wormtail entered the room, holding onto a long chain. A train of 4 girls and a male followed him. The girls were completely naked and chained around the neck; the guy was wearing a pair of dirty shorts. The girls were covered in dirt grime and blood, and they all had masks covering their faces. I heard the male death eaters' voices whispering excitedly. One of the girls tried to look around and was cowering in fear. All I could think about was the mudblood, oh how I wanted to chain her up to the lines muggle whores that were paraded in front of me. The Dark Lord than dismissed us, and I made my way back home. I was there only five minutes when I heard Cho popping into my room.
"How did I know that you would be here?" I asked smirking. She was out of her death eater attire and in some more muggle clothing. Jeans and one of my t-shirts I had lent her. Of course it looked better on her than me, any day.
"Of course I would be here, especially since the Dark Lord, gave you something to help out during the plan, am I correct?" She asked plopping on to my bed.
"Yes," I pulled the items out of my robes and handed them to her, "They're so ancient I don't know if they will work anymore, plus I was thinking we can stop by Borgin and Burkes to see if they have a better pair or at least make them a little better."
"Wow," She said turning it over and admiring it in her hand, "I can do some research on these and see if I can just upgrade them."
"Upgrade?" I asked.
"Make them better." She replied, "And maybe I can replicate one so I can keep one for myself."
"No," I replied, "Don't do that just make them better, they probably have some ancient magic on them that makes them hard to duplicate."
"Ok," She replied. "But you owe me." Her eyes were looking at me hungrily.
"Oh really?" I said smirking. I reached up and cupped her face with my hand. "I suppose so." I kissed her lightly on the lips. She began lifting up the t-shirt that she was wearing, but then she stopped.
"But I really have to go work on these." She replied holding up the items in her hand.
"Aww, you tease." I said smiling. She got off my bed, and looked back at me with her malevolent dark eyes and disapparated from the spot.
I took of my robes, and sprawled out on my bed looking up at my ceiling. My head was buzzing with plans and the thoughts of that filthy mudblood. Then I remembered our little encounter at Flourish and Blotts. Her dull brown eyes filled with anger and tears, the fear that filled them when I made my way closer to her. The way I whispered in her ear like a lover would. They way her body felt against mine. My thoughts replayed our little encounter over and over again. Revenge was definitely on the menu, and it is a dish better served cold.
"Hey Ginny do you want to come with me tomorrow to visit my father at St. Mungo's?" I asked her. She was painting my toenails, and I of course was reading one of my books.
"Sure, but why me, why not Harry?" She asked looking up at me.
"I just want you to come." I replied.
"Ok." She replied, starting back on my toenails.
I began reading my book once more. She finally finished my nails, and she went over to my closet to pick out my clothes for tomorrow. I let her do whatever she wanted; I was trying to make her feel guilty for not giving me the information I so desperately wanted.
"So tell me, what happened the night I got drunk?" I asked putting down my book. Ginny stiffened. Her back was facing me as she was looking through the clothes. Her ears were turning bright red, just like her brother's.
"Nothing… Nothing happened." She replied hesitantly.
"Ginny please tell me, you never really look me straight in the eye anymore let alone Severus."
"Severus?" She turned to me. "You're calling him Severus?"
"Forget about that." I said waving it off. "Just tell me what happened."
"Nothing happened." She replied shifting her eyes.
"Ginny please, if I did something horrid, I must make it right." I said looking back at the door.
"Ok. I'll tell you." She replied dejectedly tucking a strain of her scarlet locks behind her ear. "I was snooping around like usual and I got hungry so I made my way to the kitchen and I heard you two talking. Then Snape whispered something and you asked him again to repeat it or something, I couldn't really hear what he said but I do remember you drinking two more glasses of fire whiskey. I remember because Snape kept trying to tell you to slow down, then a glass broke, that is when I pulled out my glasses. That is when I saw that you were sitting on his lap and trying to kiss him." My mouth dropped open at these words. "He did try to push you off of him, but very reluctantly I might add. That's when it got out of hand. You jumped on top of the table and began stripping. I'm serious, Snape was all in shock, and he didn't know what to do. I finally snapped out of shock when you took your pants off and I "stumbled in". I grabbed you, and boy was that hard to do you will still trying to do your strip tease, and I brought you up stairs and locked you in here with me. You finally passed out after an hour. Snape brought your clothes up to me, he didn't even look me in the eyes."
I sat there in disbelief, my muggle friends had always told me that I was a horny drunk but I didn't believe them until now. I was in shock I didn't know what to say. I had to go correct the problem.
"Thanks Ginny." I replied and I hurried out of the room to Snape's room. I knocked on his door lightly.
"Enter." His silky voice said to me. I went into his room and closed the door.
