The Space Between Us
Severus opened the door to their house and dumped his essays on the kitchen table.
He heard muffled sobs from the lounge-room.
"Hermione?"
Hermione was seated on the couch, her face buried in a cushion.
Severus sat beside her. "What's wrong?"
Hermione just shook her head.
Severus sighed and took the cushion. "Hermione."
"Ron and Stephanie came over." She sobbed, refusing to face him.
"And?"
"And?" Hermione looked up at him, her eyes red and her cheeks wet. "They practically oozed love from every pore." Hermione couldn't stop the tears.
Severus handed her his handkerchief.
"I want what they have."

Thank you all once again for your lovely reviews. Apparently the alerts have decided not to work again. :(
But I'm glad I was able to make you laugh last chapter and thank you for the wonderful praise! And for liking my writing so much/blushes/
Until next time!
