The Wedding Night
To Hermione and Severus' chagrin, the Ministry would enforce the law that, as per usual, no marriage could be in name only.
Because of this fine print, Hermione later found herself lying in Snape's bed while he brushed his teeth.
She curled up into a ball and tried not to think what would happen once Snape- Severus- appeared.
Hermione cringed when he climbed into bed next to her and realized, belatedly, that she was softly crying.
She anxiously waited for Severus to touch her and only hoped it would be over quickly.
But no such contact came.
Only Hermione's tears.
………
Yes, Severus does brush his teeth. :D
