Ok so I got over my writers block yeah.
Normal disclaimers apply and please read and review.
It had been nearly two weeks since Ginny's funeral. The school had returned to normal and the Newts had begun. Hermione had spent all of her time in the library studding. Harry had spent most of his time with her so he didn't fall into the total abyss of abandonment. Severus well he was in the back ground as usual watching over Hermione making sure she was safe and loved.
It had been a long day for Hermione as her charms NEWT was a lot harder than she expected. Deciding she needed some time to her self she went for a walk around the lake. The sun had started to set when she saw a figure before her.
"How have you been doing." Severus moved into view of Hermione and she noticed for once the potions Master wasn't in his usual school robes but black slacks and a white crisp shirt which was only half done up showing part of his upper torso. Hermione breathe caught in her throat as she stood looking at the potion Master. "I've been doing better Sir."
Severus smiled. "I'm glad Hermione. I noticed you haven't eaten today and was wondering if you would like to accompany me to dinner." Hermione couldn't help the smile she was giving him . "I would love to sir but the great hall finished dinner half an hour ago." "I wasn't talking about the great hall Hermione." Hermione blushed as severus moved closer. "I have tickets to see a show in muggle London and reservations at the Ritz." Hermione stood still. "Sir I couldn't, I mean that's far to expensive, I couldn't possibly pay for something like that." Severus laughed, and Hermione could have melted in to the sound.
"Hermione it is my treat. I wouldn't have even considered you paying. I know this year has been hard for you and I would like to give you something good. To remember in stead of all the bad." Hermione stood motionless as she looked into Severus eye's "Thank you." Severus smiled again "Do I take that as a yes." Hermione flung herself into his arms "YES."
"I though you might say that as I took the liberty of getting something for you. If you look in your room there is something on you bed for you to wear tonight I will meet you in an hour." With that severus swept into a low bow and kissed Herimone hand.
Hermione was quickly went to her room. Her thoughts were on Severus why was he doing this now. Why was he always there for her. Most important when did he get so hot! As she reached her bedroom she couldn't help but gasp at the long red v neck dress lying on the bed. The dress was plain but elegant and just Hermione's style.
An hour later Severus knocked on Hermione's door. As she walked out his breathe was caught in his throat "You look amazing Hermione." Hermione blushed at the compliment." "Thank you, you don't look bad yourself." With that Severus offered Hermione his arm. They walked quietly out of Hogwarts so Severus could apparte them to The Ritz.
The door where opened for them but the porter as they enter the Hotel. Soon they where seated and Hermione was in awe at her surrounding. "what you you like to drink Sir madame." "a bottle of your finest champagne." "Very good sir." And with that the waiter left. "Severus that will cost far to much." Once again Severus chuckled. "My dear you have see my house, you must surly know that it won't break my bank." Hermione blushed. "But still Severus it is too much, you needed do all this for me." "Know Hermione that is where you are wrong. For years I have watched you do selfless things for others. You deserve so much more and yet you have no one to look out for you. Six month ago I found out something I feared for most. That you would give up on life. Know I want to show you that life is to live. Especially for one so good as you."
