"Not even a year has gone since we've been together but I am so proud that you are mine, you are the light in my darkness, you may never know how important you are to me or how much I care for you, but you are and you will always be. Bear in mind that I couldn't afford to lose someone I've learned to care about so much, and for that reason I at least want to know. Will you Hermione Jean Granger be mine forever?"

"Yes" she whispered leaning her head against his chest "But just not now"

"I know my love, I know" Snape whispered into her hair as he kissed her head, the thought that they may never live long enough to walk down the aisle was in the back of both of their minds.

"It's the holiday in 2 days, after that im going to live in headquarters, will you come and visit? Only if you aren't busy" Hermione blushed as they walked back to the castle together Snape quickly took her hand squeezing it reassuringly "Of course I will" before letting go of it.

"I hate having to hide… us I mean"

"Soon we won't have to; we'll just have to grab every opportunity until then"
