"No," she unreasonably denied.
"Hermione, look around. You and I are the only ones here."
She shook her head. A sudden calmness overcame her, and she whispered, "Severus, we are not alone."
Severus was shocked. He knew they were alone but the seriousness in her voice was almost a frightening change from her panic stricken actions a moment before. "Hermione," he whispered, pushing stray strands of hair from her face, "What do you mean? We are the only ones."
She shook her head again. The frantic state was coming over her again, and tears began to stream down her face.
