a/n: So 8 reviews in one night? You guys are so sweet! Hehe, I have such a HUGE twist coming up for this story.*Evil laugh insert here_* Hehehehehe Im just warning you now, this will be a short chappie, but its for a good reason. Before you read this, remember, THIS IS NOT THE LAST CHAPTER!
Severus laid on his bed, that still in fact smelled like Hermione. He was so close, and that twit had to ruin it. He should've killed him. He wasn't sure what Hermione would say or do. He was worried now, that he took it too fast and scared her off. His rational side argued with him that she was just embarrassed. He sure hoped so. A soft knock at the door got his attention. Hermione walked in, now in her pajama's. She bit her lip and glanced down.
"Come here." She shyly walked over to the bed. He opened his arms and she smiled.
"Do not think of that, he wont say anything." He mumbled into her hair. She nodded.
He glanced at the ceiling for hours, wondering if this was truly what fate had destined for him. He remembered when he was bit by nagini, he could feel the poison spread through his body, then his vision went black. The next thing he remembered was that he was at St Mungo's and she was sitting right next to him. Reading to him.
"I thought if I could stimulate your brain it might bring you back faster." She reasoned.
He didn't talk to her ever. Come to think of it, he was a bastard to her when all she did was try to save him. And she did save him. He often found himself wondering when she would come back to read more to him, maybe that should have been his first clue that he and the girl had a connection. He glanced over at Hermione and sighed, she was fast asleep. He closed his eyes and tried to relax.
Hermione's eyes snapped open, something didn't feel right. "Severus." She whispered and shook the man. He groggily opened one eye. He sat up at seeing her alarming face.
"What is the-someone is in here." His trained eyes glanced around.
The door swung open and a hood figure stood at the doorway. "Confundo!" Hermione groaned and touched Severus's arm, where was she?
Severus gritted his teeth trying to fight off the spell, he glanced toward the night table and saw his wand.
"Incarcerous!" The hooded figure swished his wand and Hermione groaned once more when tight ropes bound them self around her tightly. She glanced over at Severus. He was in the same situation. If looks could kill….
The hooded figure laughed and waked into the bedroom. "You two are so pathetic!" Hermione's confused brain began to work, trying to figure out the familiar voice.
The man looked to Severus "You. You were supposed to die!"
"You saved him! Why?" He looked to Hermione now.
"He didn't deserve to die!" She screamed at him.
The man laughed louder, Hermione's eyes widened when she realized who it was. "Why are you doing this?"
He pointed his wand at her "Crucio!" Hermione's eyes slid closed as pain rippled through her body like tidal waves. She screamed loudly, tears dripping down her cheeks. Unbearable pain ripping through her chest.
"Stop!" Severus snarled.
The man lowed his wand, Hermione continued to sob.
"He does not deserve you!" The man raised his wand at Severus.
"NO!" Hermione screamed.
Time seemed to slow as Severus looked at Hermione, knowing what was about to happen. He had cheated death once, he was sure fate would not be so kind again. "I love you." He whispered Hermione's eyes widened and more tears dripped. She relized then also what was about to happen and she was completely not ready. Memories flashed through her eyes.
"Tell me miss Granger does being an insufferable know-it-all pay off?"
"Are you trying to impress a lover?"
"I missed you also."
"You can have my heart, I have no other use for it."
"I love you."
"Avada Kedavra." Green enveloped the man, his eyes never left her until they closed in death.
Hermione screamed loudly, unbearable pain racking her heart. Tears ran down her face and dripped onto Severus's cheek.
"No! You bastard!" She screamed, more tears dripping down her face.
The hooded figure walked over to Hermione, and pulled his hood off. Hermione wailed louder at seeing the red haired man.
"Now we can be together forever."
"Ron..you bastard! I'll kill you!" She screamed and struggled in her bonds. The red heads eyes widened and a loud scream echoed the room, he feel to the floor, blood gushing from his back. Draco stood in the doorway, his wand raised, along with Blaise.
He ran over to Hermione and untied her, She leaned over to Severus and brushed the hair out of his face and laid her head on his chest, tears dripping onto his shirt.
