Author's Note: Light sexual content in the beginning. Don't like, don't read.

Hermione woke to the sensation of an arm wrapped tightly around her waist, and a certain part of the male anatomy pressing against her back. She wriggled at the new feeling and felt Severus stir behind her. She quickly closed her eyes again and feigned sleep, happy that she was able to turn her soon-to-be husband on. It made her feel proud.

Severus, on the other hand, was embarrassed when he woke up. He could feel his morning "wood," which was painfully hard and pressing into Hermione's back. He heaved a sigh of relief as he realized she was still asleep. He carefully pulled himself away from her and stalked into the bathroom.

"Silencio," he muttered, before bringing his hand down to the front of his sweatpants.

He had no idea, that on the other side of the door, Hermione had quietly whispered,

"Finite incantatem."

He was blissfully unaware that she was listening to every moan and groan he uttered as he ran his hand over himself, and his scream of her name as he released across the floor of the bathroom. He cleaned the bathroom with a wave of his wand and walked back into the bedroom. There he found Hermione still asleep in the bed. She stirred as he approached, then sat up with a yawn and a long stretch.

"Morning, Severus," she said, rubbing her eyes.

"Good morning, my love," he replied, coming over to capture her lips softly.

When they broke away, they got dressed and walked together to the kitchenette where they had breakfast.


Ginny came by shortly after nine to take Hermione to Diagon Alley. She kissed Severus goodbye and the two girls Flooed to the location.

"Where should we go first?" asked Hermione.

"Madam Malkins," Ginny answered. "You need wedding robes."

Hermione chose a cream colored set of robes, and soon enough, they were fit to her size. They went to another shop where Hermione picked out wedding bands for her and Severus. They had lunch at The Leaky Cauldron, before Ginny insisted that they go to one last shop. It was near the end of the alley, close to the entrance of Knockturn Alley. Hermione was appalled the second she walked in. There were sex toys everywhere, as well as love and lust potions, and many other kinky things.

"Ginny, why?" Hermione asked.

"You need something sexy for tomorrow night," she answered, as she eyed a dark blue negligee.

Hermione cursed. They ended up buying the barely there fabric, as Ginny insisted. Hermione was very glad when they returned to the castle.


"Dumbledore said you're staying in the dorms tonight," Ginny said, as Hermione collapsed on one of the beds after dinner with Severus.

"Yes," Hermione replied. "Severus and I both thought it would be more proper if he didn't see me from now until the wedding."

Ginny whistled. "Wow. So who is coming?"

"The Order, the professors, my parents, Severus's mother, you, Harry, Ron, Draco, and Luna."

"That's not too bad."

Hermione shook her head. "Severus wanted a fairly small wedding when he was young, but he said he would make do."

Ginny laughed heartily at that. "Well then, I think it's time for lights out. Good night Mrs. Snape."

"That's Madam Snape to you," Hermione laughed. "Good night Ginny."

They both fell asleep rapidly, excited for the events that were to occur the next day.


Author's Note: I hope you enjoyed this chapter, albeit a bit short. The next one will have the wedding and it should be longer. I promise to update tomorrow.
