Grow some

The cabin, now sparkling clean and smelling much better then it had when they arrived there three days ago. Hermione collapsed in a heap next to Severus on the now clean lounge, admiring her handy work. Stretching she put her feet in his lap. He gently began to massage them for her. He loved having her there and being able to touch her at his own free will. Whilst neither of them were in a relationship as such something was sure blooming between the two.

It was no longer just sex, not that they had any since the last time a Grimmauld place. He would often just walk up to her and give her a kiss, she would walk up to him and hug him. He often found himself massaging her, to him they felt like a couple even though he knew deep down they were not, but it was nice to play along for the moment.

"I am going tomorrow." He pulled her out of the blissful world she was in, his fingers still working magic on her feet.
"Where?," She questioned, worry ebbed into her voice.
"To find Potter, tell him what happened and that we are fine," His voice monotone
"Do you think that is wise?."
He shrugged his shoulders, now was a good a time as any, he thought so anyway. "I will use a poly juice potion, no one will know it is me."

Hermione shook her head, dread creeping through her body. "I don't know. What if something happens to you?"
He sighed deeply. "Nothing will happen to me, but if on some off chance I do not come back stay safe, you are a smart girl Hermione, you can look after yourself without me."
She sighed "I know I can look after myself, but I do not want to do it without you, Severus"
He smiled weakly, she knew how to both melt his heart and make him feel selfish at the same time.
"You witch, are both insufferable and sweet." He pushed her feet off of his lap and learnt over and gave her a quick kiss on the lips before moving his lips to her ear. He pressed his thin lips to her ear "Sweet, sexy and beautiful." His words were murmured, sending chills down her spine. Subconsciously she moved her head to expose the bare nape of her neck, his lips making an assault instantly. Licking and nibbling away a hot heat began to form between her legs, a moan escaping her. Shuddery breaths slipped from her lips when his hand roamed up under her shirt and across her bare nipples. Biting her neck softly she ran a hand across his hardening cock in appreciation. His cock stirred at her touch, hardening fully under her strokes.

Pulling his lips from her neck he unzipped his pants, pushing them off down his hips they landed carelessly on the floor. He went back to his post, kissing her neck and sucking her ear lobe whilst running fingers over her hard pointed nipples.

She let her hand roam back down to his now bare cock, grabbing the base she slowly ran her hand up his shaft and back down again, almost too painful for him to bear, she made him feel amazing.

Moving to now focus his mouth on her nipples she kept stroking his cock. Running her thumb over the tip his pre cum glistened, wiping her thumb over the tip she spread it over the head before moving her hand back to the base. Cupping his balls with her free hand gently she caressed them, he groaned. Arching her back into him he sucked even harder on the nipple he had in his mouth before swapping to it's neglected partner. She increased the speed of her hand on his shaft even more in response to the pleasure on her nipples. His breath jaggered, hips rising off the lounge a ball of heat forming in the pit of his stomach, shuddering as a stream of hot come erupted from his tip all over her hand and his legs. Quivering he pressed his lips hard to hers, thrusting his tongue into her mouth the two tongues met in a moment of need. His hands roamed blindly to the waistband of her pants, he fumbled to get the button of her jeans undone. Once successful he pushed the zipper down hard. She broke the kiss, this time pulling her pants over her hips and onto the floor. The two sat in silence for a moment, heat crept into Hermione's cheeks turning them red. She was still not accustom to being under his gaze half naked. He gently took her wrist and guided her atop of him.
Gently he brushed stray hair out of her face, her breathing was increased and she had started to shake slightly. "It will be ok, let me guide you."
Hermione's heart beat hard against her chest, he wanted her to take the reins? She could not do this, she had sex only twice before and both times she lay there like a limp noodle. "I can't." She looked to the ground embarrassed.
He gently placed an index finger under her chin, lifting her head so her gaze met his.
"You can do this, Hermione. Since when did you ever turn down a challenge?," his voice a low growl.
She smiled softly, he was right, she was never one to turn down a challenge and maybe she owed it to him after saving her life.

She lifted herself off of him, he grabbed his cock and held it for her as she slowly sheathed him within her hot wet centre. It was acknowledged with an appreciative groan. She bit her bottom lip out of worry. Wrapping both his arms around her waist he gently pulled her up, she followed his movement, he then pushed back down, she obliged.
"Just keep doing that." He tried to keep his voice level and cool, she felt so amazing and wet.
Up and down she went, she even began to enjoy it herself, the first time she had since loosing her virginity. His cock hit her spot just right, sending small shock wave through her body with every movement. Shuddery breath emitted from both of them, each closing their eyes. Hermione needed no more coaching, moving faster and faster as she felt her need to come getting closer. His grip tightened on her waist and he legs became shaky. She gripped his shoulders tight and shakily. It hit her like a tonne of bricks, her first orgasm, it started in the pit of her stomach and erupted throughout her body. Breathless and happy she stopped when she felt him shudder beneath him, collapsing onto him in a hot mess she lay his her head to his chest.

"That was wonderful," She mused.

"That it was," He quipped.

"Please don't go." She sat on the bed, head in hands. She did not want a world without Severus Snape.
"I will be fine woman now stop the pity party." He pulled on a simple pair of blue denim jeans.
"Let me come with you," She pleaded.
"No." his voice firm and gaze stormy. He back tracked quickly, placing a hand on either of her cheeks he kissed the top of her head. "You are safe here, Hermione. You will be fine, I will be fine."
"When will I expect you back?." She got to her feet.

"Well if all goes to plan, not longer than two hours." He placed a simple gray shirt over his head, pulling on a pair of white sneakers.
Hermione sniggered at the sight before her, maybe she did not have to worry, no-one would know it was him, he looked ridiculous dressed in muggle clothes, it did not suit him at all.
"What, do tell are you sniggering at," he snapped, feeling bare and wrong in these clothes.
"Nothing... You look riveting." Her voice oozed with sarcasm.
He rolled his eyes choosing to ignore her whilst he reached into the bag, pulling out a flask of polyjuice potion, he took a large sip of it. Almost instantly it began to take effect, his long black hair shortened and turned brown, his eyes turned blue, his skin darkened to a healthy tan, he grew an inch taller, his nose becoming small and rounder whilst his skin smoothed. Hermione guess his age at around 24.

"Please do tell who you stole the hair from?"
"Some random muggle, I like to have these things in my stores, always coming in handy."
"Who ever it is... you look sexy." She added a coy sarcastic wink. He just rolled his eyes in response.
"I am off now, remember what I said about staying safe, I will be back later." He bent down and kissed her hard on the lips, pulling away he apparated in front of her, leaving her to rub her lips with her index finger sighing dreamily.

He walked alone along a far winding country road. Fields of cows and horses as far as he could see. He knew he was getting close, he did not want to apparate directly there in case someone had been watching. Choosing to apparate a good half a mile out from Harry's house he now rounded the last corner, a few houses come into sight. Harry lived in a small country town, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, away from danger and prying eyes. Severus had been there a few times on business.
He reached a vacant block of land with a large cobblestone fence on the front. Looking around quickly and noting he was alone he pulled his wand out tapping the fourth brick from the top four times. A quint English cottage sprung into view almost instantly. A beautiful garden full of pink, red and white roses around the cottage, lavender bordered the path. Severus always did think it looked more muggle grandma then a 20 something male wizard.
Pushing open the small wooden gate he walked up the path, reaching the door he rang the doorbell, standing back he waited, tapping his foot impatiently.
Harry opened the door, a confused look crossed his face, "Can I help you?"
"Yes you can, Potter." He took a step forward.
"Snape?," He questioned he would know that baritone snarky voice anywhere.
"What, where what are you doing here? I thought you were...," He trailed off.
"Missing?," Severus interjected.

Harry shook his head "No, Dead. You just vanished, come in." Harry looked around up and down the street before stepping back and allowing him to enter.
Harry led him to the sitting room, it was even more grandmaish then the outside of the house. A large wooden coffee table in the middle of the roam with a lace runner. Blue carpet throughout the house with a cream colour wall paper. A large vase of flowers sitting atop the fire place.
Severus looked around wrinkling his nose at the room, sneering he thought he would take a quick stab for old time sakes.
"You potter live like an 80 year old woman."
Harry shrugged "Do you always go into peoples homes and pick on them?."
"Yes." His lips twisted into an evil grin as he took a step towards the coffee table, bending down he plucked yesterdays daily prophet into his hand, a photo of himself on the front page with the headline Friend or foe?

It then went on to say it was believed he had abducted Hermione Granger and was holding her captive, He snorted throwing the paper down.
"I know you did not abduct her, but do you know where she is?," His voice soft and worrisome.
Severus nodded "I have her, safe. I cannot tell you where but I saved her. The dark lord had her."
Harry turned almost white, how could his friend be taken by the dark lord and he not know?
"And now as such I am on the run with her. I had to leave without a trace."
"Know one knew what happened to you. I assumed you were dead somewhere killed by the dark lord and I had no idea where Hermione was. I was hoping it was just a coincidence that she went missing around the same time as you." He shook his head wearily.

Severus walked over to Harry, facing the other man. He grabbed Harry by the shoulders.
"Have you found the horcruxes Harry?"
Harry swallowed hard. "I have all but two, I cannot do the rest without Hermione."
Severus gave him a rough shake. "You have no choice, Potter. I cannot bring her to help you. If we are caught again and anything happens to her I will never forgive myself. They are after us Harry you will have to do this alone."
"I can't! I need her, Snape! Without her brains and am just the braun."
"Listen to me, this war relies solely on you, Potter. You are the one and the only that can finish this off. I have to go into hiding like a scared bloody mongrel dog with Hermione because of a choice I made. You can go on and fix it, fix it so Hermione can come back and live a normal life, so everyone can live a normal life once again. Grow a set potter and get out there, find him and defeat him." He was yelling by time he got to the end.
"I am scared. What if I stuff up, what if I loose?" Harry was as white as a ghost.
"Scared! We are all scared Potter, Hell I am petrified but I just have to grin and bare it and not let it show through to Hermione. Every night I have been lying awake jumping at every sound, shitting myself, just so she can get some sleep, just so she can feel safe. I am trying to be something I am not, you can do the same!" He began pacing the room in a fluster.
"You have to end this sooner or later, Potter. Hopefully sooner rather than later."
Harry just nodded, he raced away only to reappear moments later this a small mirror in his hands.
"Keep this close, when the time comes I will let you know. Come please and we can end this together."
He gave harry a curt nod taking the mirror from him and placing it inside his pocket.
Harry led the way back to the front door, letting him out, as he was walking down the path way Harry yelled out to him. "By the way, you like ridiculous." Severus just kept on walking, mumbling insults under his breath.

SS/HG
Hermione threw her arms around his shoulder, holding him tight. "You made it back safe." She said tearfully.
He had now reverted back to his normal self, just as he was walking into the door. Pulling away from her he pulled the mirror out of his pocket, handing it to her. "I think Potter wants to talk to you sometime soon, he needs your help."

A/N: Slowly we are getting there! Soon they can be together without hiding or a great war going on. Ah bliss. Hope you all liked it! Let's see if we can crack the 100th review, hey ;).
