"Severus, if you keep buying ice-cream and cookies, I'll get fatter!" Hermione had cried over the sight of the double-coated fudge cookies she had demanded not ten minutes ago.

"Is that a problem for you? Might I remind you, this," Hermione indicated her enlarged belly, "is all your doing?"
"You constantly do, darling. I can only say how sorry I am."
Severus threw the cookies away.
Hermione squealed. "What are you doing!?"
Severus blinked.
"I want those!"

So this is officially my favorite chapter ever. I had so much fun writing it and tweaking it and I think it's perfect. He he. I hope you like it! Yes, I did skip ahead a bit. I couldn't resist writing Severus putting up with Hermione's mood swings.
A crying fit to
come next. ;)
Now that my email inbox has been flooded with ffnet alerts, I'm a happy camper. :D
