Hey, haven't been available lately. I am stage manager for the play my school is putting on...Cinderella; and I am not home from seven in the morning until eight or nine o'clock.
So sorry to keep you all waiting.

I quickly paid the bill before she could say anything, and we walked out of the restaurant side by side, briskly because of the cold spring wind.
"So how long are you going to be watching the lectures?" She asked as we made our way back into the elevator. I pressed her button for floor two, and decided against pressing four for my own floor.
"Another three days, not including today. Any longer, and Albus will have undone all my work on the students' puny little minds thus far." I said lightly. She chuckled, and we stepped out of the elevator, and she guided me towards her room down the hallway to the right. I vaguely wondered to myself when it had come to the point where I began to not only enjoy her company, but to crave it. It must have been between the salad and the soup when she had burst out into light hearted spring filled laughter upon hearing my recollection of my first and only potions accident.
"And you Miss. Granger? For how long will you be present?" I asked as we stopped in front of a door labeled 29. She turned to me so that we were face to face instead of side by side, and looked up at me with happiness in her tell-all eyes. She had clearly enjoyed our dinner as much as I had and wasn't afraid to show me.
"For at least a week more...I guess that means I will be seeing you tomorrow?" She inquired, and I bowed my head in acknowledgement. She smiled.
"Well then good night Sir." She whispered, but didn't move. I took her hand in mine and kissed the back of it.
"Good night Miss Granger."

After Severus left- for in my mind I called him Severus; I absolutely died. In school, I had wanted him so badly, and now he was here... speaking to me, dining with me...seemingly interested in me? It was almost too good to be true.
When I had left school, rejected by Severus for the time being, I was determined to get out and make a name for myself, and prove that I could be just as good as he told me I could be. Along the way, I discovered that not only could people find me smart, but they could find me just as beautiful. I embraced my first real relationship with one Justin Webber, who was studying with me, but was originally from America, and went home a few months after we began dating. There were others after that...Boris Hapfry, Michael Bisoi, and Freddy Abdy. Needless to say, I was nowhere near being a virgin anymore, having experimented with my sex life just as much as I experimented with my potions. The brief study of S&M and domination, the lengthy study of the Karma Sutra, and even group sex, although that was a one time thing. I knew how I liked it.
What can I say? When I studied, I studied!
Getting back to one sexy snarky bastard Severus Snape, I saw this as an opportunity to let him know that not only was I interested in him in a sexual manner, but in a courtship one as well. This evenings dinner demonstrated that he and I got along more than well together. We had potions, books, geography, politics, and friends in common as well.

Because Hermione and I never said we would be meeting each other that morning, I had breakfast in my room and then proceeded to the lecture hall for the next presentation. Entering early, I immediately spotted her sitting alone in an aisle seat, jotting something down in a muggle style spiral notebook. I made my way leisurely to the seat next to her, and sat down. She looked up at me and smiled.
"Good morning Professor Snape." She chirped, putting down her pen and stretching.
"Please Miss. Granger; I am no longer your teacher. Call me Severus, I insist." I said matter of fact-ly, and waved my hand in dismissal.
"Well then I shall grant you the same courtesy. If you so wish, you may call me Hermione."

She sighed an hour into the lecture and lay her head down upon the table, then looked up at me with pleading eyes.
"This guy is soooo boring. He can't honestly care about the duration of spell casting." She moaned. I chuckled and nodded in agreement. No one seemed to be responding very well to his information.
"There is an art museum in the center of town if you want to go. I could put an invisibility spell on us and we can sneak out of here." I told her, and her eyes immediately lit up in excitement.
"Oh that sounds grand. Let's do it!"
