"I'm not," she denied as she wiped her eyes.
"Hermione..." He took a few steps toward her.
Without farther conversation, Hermione ran deeper into the woods.
When she finally stopped, she was surprised that Severus hadn't followed her. She also found she was a little hurt. He had told her he would chase her, but he hadn't. She was surprised at her own desire for him to go after her.
Shaking her head, she pushed away from the tree.
Suddenly an overwhelming sense of familiarity washed over her when she realized that she was in the same clearing as her nightmare.
