Chapter 6: Wedding nights of heaven and hell

Hermione and Severus entered there new and spacious living quarters. Hermione's mouth dropped and she could not believe how beautiful it was. Hermione walked over to the door which was the bathroom. The bathroom was like a jacuzzi. Hermione came back out and explored the balcony.

"I can see you like it." Severus asked rhetorically."

"Like it, Severus I love it." Hermione said shocked by the beauty of the room.

"Good, this is my personal quarters. This is where the 'most feared professor sleeps.'" Severus looked at her.

"So, did you like my vows?" Hermione asked in a hopeful voice that he would.

"Did you mean them?" Severus asked quirking an eyebrow and he knew the answer.

"Yes I did. I cannot believe you knocked out my father. That was hillarious." Hermione began to laugh. "Something I will never forget."

"It was, wasn't it?" Severus then started to laugh while shaking his head.

"Umm, Severus.." Hermione trailed off.

"Yes, Hermione?" Severus stopped laughing and got a little serious.

"Did you mean your vows?" Hermione asked in her hopeful voice. She knew he could be really mean like how she knew Severus from being a student.

"..Of course I did or I wouldn't have punched our father in the jaw for touching you." Severus told her with meaning in his voice.

"Well, depending on how you and my father got along, I was going to tell you something." Hermione got quieter as she talked and looked away from Severus.

"And what would that be?" Severus moved closer to her and cupped her chin in his hand to cause her to look him in the eye.

"Hermione Hermione. There is a fight down in the courtyard." Ron came in yelling while holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"How did you know where.." Hermione asked baffled.

"McGonnagall gave it to me." Ron waved the paper in his hand. " Now come on. They are fighting over a girl."

"Who?"

"Ginny." Ron yelled back.

Hermione and Severus looked at each other and then ran out the door together.


Down at the Courtyard...

"She's mine you filth!" Draco exclaimed as punched Dean in the stomach.

"Fuck off, Draco, she's my wife now." Dean gave a low blow which dropped Draco to the ground.

Dean then got on top of Draco and began to punch him.

Ginny shrieked in fear as to who would win her. Ginny were crying and then she saw Hermione and Professor Snape running up to them.

"Miss Granger, you take care of Miss Weasley and I will handle them two." Severus told Hermione as he went for the two boys wrestling on the grould like cub bears playing roughly.

"Break it up!" Severus yelled as he pulled them apart.

The two boys then looked at each other, their jaws clenched together and there facial expressions had pure rage written on them.

Severus then took them both by the robes up to the castle to Dumbledore's office.

"Ginny, what happened?" Hermione asked.

"Well, Dean and I got married like just now, and Draco showed up and started a fight. Something about his father paying for me. Dean wouldn't allow it and then that's when the shit hit the fan and they started pushing and shoving. Then they began swinging." Ginny sobbed on Hermione's robes.

"If it makes you feel better, Professor Snape knocked my father on the floor for touching me."

"Oh my god. That's fucked up." Ginny then giggled.

"Now, let's go to Professor Dumbledore's office and sort this mess out." Hermione then walked with her best friend up to Dumbledore's office.


Dumbledore's office...

"Severus, what did they do?" Albus asked as he watched Severus manuever the two boys around like they were luggage.

"These two boys were fighting over a girl in the courtyard. My wife will bring Ginny in."

"You're married, Professor?" Draco asked.

Severus looked at Draco with slit eyes, his jaw began to clench. Then the door abruptly opened and Hermione came in with Ginny.

Draco looked at Hermione, then commented, " You married the mudblood?"

"Don't you ever call her that in front of me again!" Severus gripped his cloak to where he were inches from his face and said through his teeth. His eyes were narrowed on the little brat that has it all shoved up his ass. Severus hated him for using that name to any of the muggleborns, especially Hermione.

Draco closed his eyes and whimpered at the sudden anger that ran through every word that his head of house said to him.

"Severus!" Hermione exclaimed. She could not believe his sudden change from hating her one day up to completely protecting her.

Albus looked at Severus with astonishment written across his face, his mouth fell slightly open. Albus did notice a change in his behavior.

"Hermione, you get 10 points for stopping the fight. I will want a full written report on what happened when you arrived as well as Mr. Weasley on my desk as soon as you can. In the meantime, I shall deal with the matters at hand." Albus rewarded with a smile and a familiar twinkle in his eyes.

"Yes, Professor." Hermione then left Dumbledore's office and went to her new room to get ready for her Transfiguration class she was already late for.

"Now Severus, tell me what happened." Albus asked looking at the Professor through his half moon spectacles.

"Well, when I was with my wife in our new room, Ron Weasley came in abruptly without knocking and told us about the fight in the courtyard. So me and Hermione ran down to the scene and when we arrived, I saw the two boys swinging and rolling on the ground like two male bears fighting over the female. So I immediately ran over to them and pulled them apart. Hermione checked Ginny. It was like I take the boys and she take the girl. I then broke them apart, then I took them up here. Hermione dropped Ginny here and we are where we are now." Severus briefly explained.

"Ok, Severus. That will be all. I will have a talk with them, then I shall hand Draco over to you for you to punish."

Severus sneered and looked at Draco, anger in his eyes and then strided out of Albus's office with his robes billowing behind him.

Dumbledore then looked at Ginny and said, "My dear, you can leave for yourHerbology class. You were not involved in this fight although they were fighting over you."

"Thank you, Professor." Ginny thanked as she walked out of Dumbledore's office.

Ginny then walked to the common room in a trance and got her pack and walked to Herbology. Ginny entered the class and Professor Sproutlooked at her, then motioned for her to take her seat next to Collin Creavey.

Then, after Transfiguration, Hermione met up with Ron and Harry in the hallway as they walked down the stairs to the potions lab in the dungeon.

"How is the Git?" Ron asked.

"He's very nice to me if you are wondering. I mean he punched my father in the face." Hermione told him giggling.

Harry laughed at imagining that happening.

Severus sat at his desk and watched the children pour in. Then he heard Hermione's giggle and saw her walk in with the other two who made the Golden Trio. He watched as they took there usual seat in the far back corner furthest away from his desk. Severus then saw the last student come in and shut the door behind him. Severus got out of his seat and tapped the board with his wand. Then directions appeared for a complicated potion came visible along with the ingredients.

"Get to work." Severus said as he scanned the class.

Hermione and other students got up and got the ingredients for there teams while the other students at the table were preparing the tools.

Hermione came back and she laid the ingredients. She opened her advanced potions book to page 394. Then she began to brew her potion. Hermione knew that after about 90 minutes, he would start to check them starting from the back of the room where they were.

Hermione brewed the potion and finished it up in 88 minutes. Then she bottled it up and Severus came around and took it from her hands.

Severus looked at the color up in the light, then rocked the bottle back and forth to check the thickness. Then he gave it back saying, " A."

"Thank you, sir." Hermione thanked with a smile.

Severus just looked at her skeptically, then grinned as he walked away.

"I pity those who are not finished now, so bottle your potions, clean up, and get out." Severus said in his snarky tone.

The children then did what they were told and scurried out.

Hermione was the last to leave and before she could make it to the door, Severus cut her off.

"What are you doing?"

"Sorry for my rude manners in public." Severus told her with his arms on both tables blocking her way to the door.

"It's ok, Severus. I understand." Hermione then tried to push through his right arm and he then wrapped it around her waist and she spun around facing the class room.

Hermione's breath drawed up in her as Severus whispered in her ear, "I will make it up to you tonight." Then he let her go.

"Crazy Git." Hermione spatted playfully.

Severus clenched his jaw and started to go for her, but she ran off. Then he laughed at the game she played and he would play along with it for a while. I do not mind the games, infact, I think I will have fun with her until she is ready. Severus grinned thinking to himself and then he walked out of his quarters and headed to the Great Hall for lunch.


The Great Hall...

Hermione sat in between Ron and Harry and grabbed some food on her plate and glared at the slytherin table and didn't see Draco there. She did not see Dean at the gryffindor table either. Ginny was sitting alone playing in her food.

"Ginny, come over here and sit with me." Hermione called to Ginny.

Ginny took her plate and moved over with the Golden Trio.

"Ginny, how are you doing?" Hermione asked.

"Ok, they both got a month's detention. Plus whatever Professor Snape and Professor Mcgonagall does to them."Ginny responded gloomishly.

"Don't worry, all is well. Me and Snape are married." Hermione told Ginny in a tone to hope she will be cheered up.

"What?" Ginny looked at Hermione shocked, dropping her fork on her plate.

"Yes, since I am one of the eight people that were not petitioned to marry, I was paired up by Cornelius with Severus. He is a nice guy actually.

"Good in bed?" Ginny asked hoping Hermione would spill the details.

"Hell no, Ginny!" Hermione protested, "I have not slept with him like that yet, I mean I have been married to him for only since early this morning."

"Oh, sorry." Ginny apoligized feeling like an ass.
