Looney
Hermione opened her eyes and smiled, stretching like a cat on a warm sun, she couldn’t remember when she felt so good, so much…herself. The heavy mist that muddled her brain was gone, that magical damper, filtering sounds, images and thoughts was gone as well. “And how do we feel this morning?” Ok, the voice was still there, but even the voice sounded tamer and more controlled. “Must you spoil my morning?” “I do not! I just wanted to point out that we are quite a team.” “I still want to get rid of you.” “Instead of focusing on impossible…why don’t you try to…oh I don’t know – maybe work with me?” “And why would I do that?” “I can give you five or six screaming reasons, based on the last night.”
Hermione smiled again. Last night, yes, she learned quite a bit about herself last night, she even learned few things about Snape too. “You know…” “I do.” “Don’t you think it is prudent to prepare?” “I guess, but not jet, let me enjoy the moment.” “Fair enough.” The voice was gone. She folded her arms under her head, smiling at her current situation. This wasn’t the first time they slept in the same bed, but it was the first time he wasn’t as far from her as he could be. The weight of his arm draped over her waist was pleasant, and even if they didn’t snuggle or touch in any other sense she could feel heat radiating from him. She smiled again, last night…
After that initial show, she put for him, he didn’t demand any more of self-exploration from her. But he did live up to his promise, she now knew what her body was capable of, and she loved it. She loved every touch, every light scratch, every bite and cares of his lips. “Gods, those fingers should be illegal. Ten years of Azkaban worthy, at least.” She sighed, there was one thing she needed to work on. One thing that made her mental, after their first two times…well, all right his finger and lips were masterful, but she yearned for more than those. She wanted to feel him inside her again, to relive that pleasant fullness once again. “You’ll just have to work on it.” “How?” “Oh, now you are seeking my advice.” “Help or be gone.” “You know how, just don’t be afraid to ask.” “Yes, because me asking questions or demanding is such a turn on for him.” “You’ll never know.”
“When did I become friendly with a curse?” she sighed again, the nagging voice was not half that bad when she didn’t argue with it, it was even…helpful. Rolling to her side, she focused her attention to him. He was sleeping on his stomach, face towards her, one hand over her, other under the pillow. Black curtain of his hair obscured most of his face. He looked so peaceful and satisfied, even beautiful in his own way. She did curse them both, and rationally she was aware that good part of her feelings were influenced by the curse, but even if there is no way to dispel the curse entirely, she wouldn’t mind to be tied to him for the rest of her life. He wouldn’t oppose to her carrier, he wouldn’t mind her spending evening reading, he accepted her the way she was, he was intense but observant and involved lover. What girl could ask for more?
~ S ~ S ~ S ~
He woke up. Not that she would know, over the years he pushed his body and mind over the limits, he wouldn’t change his breathing or move a muscle before he judge the situation he’s in. Said situation being him waking up next to someone. Waking up next to someone wasn’t something he did. Not in this proximity at least, not with his hand wrapped around soft curve of her…lover's…waist. Then again, he was never in same situation, hotel rooms were convenient for the fast departure, apparating for disappearing without the trace. But most unnerving thing was, not waking up beside her but rather liking it, he wasn’t bothered by the situation, he found it…pleasant… This demands for fast resolve of this entire mess and he needed to go while he got too entangled.
She was awake and stretching lazily. Images of the last night floated to his mind. Under the fizz of untamable curls, confused thoughts and proper etiquette was one fiery and rather imaginative witch. She sighed, almost half moaning and that sound affected parts of his anatomy, controlling them more efficiently than he did. It was time to make his presence known.

Severus stirred and she looked at him, smiling
- Morning. –
- Good morning. – his voice was still soft from the sleep, deep and rich like tick caramel syrup she felt fine hairs on her back prickling as they stand to salute – What time it is? –
- Half past seven. –
- It is time to get up. –
- I don’t want to, I’m still sleepy. – she was surprised, she wanted to stay in bed, next to him, maybe…
- I can help you wake up in a matter of minutes, if not less… - he smiled at her
- Hardly. – she clipped
- Do you want to bet? –
- No, I dare you to try… - she smiled
- All right, but you have to do exactly what I tell you to do. – she nodded – Do we have a deal? –
- Give me your best. –
- This early in the morning? Just follow the instruction Mi…Kitten. – she nodded again – Alright, relax and close your eyes. – Hermione followed the instruction, his hand slithered from her waist to her jaw leaving the trail of goosebumps on its way – I want you to clear your mind and focus only on my voice. – he purred in a low tone – I don’t want you to think. I don’t want you to analyse or overanalyze. I don’t want you to limit yourself in any way. – his fingers ghosted over her jaw and down her throat, she arched her neck to his touch. His low rumble was hypnotic, the room disappeared, the bed disappeared, only focal points were his voice and his touch – I want you to tell me three things that you wish to experience. –
- Love as in true love, acceptance and freedom. –
- Good, that was good, Kitten. Now, I want you to tell me three things you want to experience in bed. –
- As many orgasms as I can, like the ones I had last night. Explore my darker desires. Woman. – she burped, the second words left her mouth her eyes open wide, she covered her mouth with her hand “What was I thinking?” “You didn’t think, you followed the instructions.” “Oh gods!” He was chuckling quietly
- There, now you are wide awake. –
- You…that…evil…. – she sputtered at him and he started to laugh openly, and not just any laugh but honest laugh that made the bed shake – That was vile. – she hissed at him jumping out of the bed and run to the door
- Miss Granger… - he tried to call her but she didn’t care, the only thing she wanted was to run away from him
“Oh, Gods! How can I look him in the eyes now? How could I be so stupid? He’s going to think that I’m some kind of freak.” Overwhelming feeling of embarrassment washed over her. His strict, sharp voice snapped her to reality
- Miss. Granger! –
- What?! – she snapped – I’m just going to wash my teeth… -
- Do not move from the spot where you stand. –
- Oh? Oh! Did I, Merlin, did I hurt you? – she forgot, forgot about the curse, about the chains that tide them together
- Where are you now? –
- At the entrance to the bathroom. –
- Stand there and do. Not. Move. – he emerged from the room, draped in the black silken house robe. Not even glancing at her he walked towards the living room – Tell me if I pull you. – he barked in the passing. She waited, after some time she called
- Severus, where are you? –
- In the basement. – came distant reply, soon after he was back in the hallway
- But how? – he shrugged
- The door, let’s see what is going to happen if someone try to walk out of the door. – she moved but he caught her as she passed him – I do think that it is prudent to let me try. –
- You think it might be dangerous? –
- No, but I am more equipped for such action. – he chuckled again, looking pointedly at her naked form – Unless you want to add exhibitionism to your list. Or is that falls under the “darker desires” category? –
She blushed and pointed for him to go first, pressing her lips tight. His shoulders shook as he walked to the door and she wanted to whack him with something and kill the amusement from his posture. He stopped at the door
- Walk back to the sofa. –
- Why? –
- This is not the game Miss Granger, not the competition who can get first to the threshold, I am trying to determine what happened with our “jewellery”. – she nodded and went to sit on the sofa
- Right, I’m ready. –
He glanced at her and opened the door, tentatively making a step. For a few seconds, nothing happened, but then he was nearly launched backwards, she felt her hand tug and jumped to get closer to him. He stopped her and pointed towards the kitchen
- Go into the kitchen. –
She obeyed, walked into the kitchen, entered the pantry, went to the furthest part of the kitchen and called
- Anything? –
- No nothing. – he replied and soon he was in the kitchen as well – It appears that we can move independently around the house but we can’t separate if we are to leave the house. –
- Do you think that wards influence the curse? – she watched him as he put the kettle on
- No, that would extend to the garden and the yard. We will drink the tea, shower and go to the library, we have couple of hours before Luna show up. – she nodded, that sounded like the plan. In the light of new discovery her embarrassing mishap and her anger faded away.
By the time knocking on the entrance door echoed through the house they were in the library, working in pleasant harmony. They agreed that they won’t tell anyone about peculiarity of the “stretchy” bonding chain except Bill. For once she enjoyed working with someone to whom she didn’t need to explain every other step or decision, Severus appeared not only to be on the same page with her, but few pages ahead.
They walked to the door and Snape opened them. Luna was patiently standing on the doormat, with arms full of books, smile on her lips and in her eyes.
- Severus! Hello Hermione. – she said softly, depositing the books in Snape’s hands – This is what you wanted. –
- Yes, do come in. – Luna walked in to the house, closing the door behind her, she looked at Snape then Hermione and sing a single note through her nose, pursing her lips – How are you. –
- We are fine, working. –
- Mhm. Severus, can I ask you to place those books somewhere and make a tea, I would like to talk to Hermione. -
- If you two just accompany me… -
- Severus… - Luna’s tone made her cringe, it was reproachful, mildly disappointed, no nonsense voice, something you didn’t quite expect to hear from Luna – Do not take me for a full, please. We will be on the sofa. It is safe to sit on the sofa, isn’t it? –
- I don’t know Luna, it is your specialty. – he grinned at her, she blown another note through her nose tilting her head slightly, watching him straight in the eyes – Yes, it is safe to sit on the sofa. The usual? –
- Please. Thank you, Severus, I’ll talk to you later, but first, girl talk. – walking past him, she took Hermione’ hand and lead her to the sofa with airy smile – You are in dire need of female company. –
- Luna…? –
- Sometimes I just know things. People, you know, are not that different from animals, even less from beasts. You just need to know how to observe. If you are alert enough you can tame the wildest of beasts. –
- You certainly proved to be good at that. – chuckled Hermione, imagining for a second Luna with whip and a chair inching toward Severus
- He is not wild, just mistrustful. – smiled Luna – You and Snape, hm? -
- I made such a mess of the things Luna. When this is over he’s going to kill me. I don’t know what was I thinking… -
- You didn’t. The curse did the thinking for you. –
- You knew?! –
- In Marrakesh? Yes. –
- Why didn’t you say anything?! –
- You didn’t want to talk about it. – Luna simply stated
- They shouldn’t have sent him. What did I do to him! –
- I don’t think it is such a bad thing. Same as you, Severus lost himself. He thinks he’s happy, you know, but he isn’t, not really. –
- I… -
- I was told he’s good. – smiled Luna – I’m telling you because you probably can’t compare. –
Severus walked in to the room, placed two mugs of tea, glared at Luna and walked back in to the kitchen.
- He’s going to make ravioli, I like his ravioli. He is a great cook, by muggle and wizarding standards alike. I guess he is compensating. – Hermione blinked, she liked Luna but talking with her always made her feel out off balance, Luna was simply unpredictable
- Ummm, Luna, where did you got the idea… -
- He’s teaching you. – that was a statement
- How…? –
- The books. He doesn’t need them, he knows them by heart. They can be only for you. – Luna didn’t sound appalled or reproachful, she didn’t even sound curious, she continued to talk in that half-asleep voice like she is chatting about the tea and the cookies. Hermione blushed, realizing suddenly how much Luna knew about their situation. Luna smiled again – Mhm, I think he is good for you, curse or no curse, you two are good match. –
- Luna, look…the situation…it is all…it is just a convenience…. –
- That kiss was hot. – Luna smiled at her
- Luna, - Hermione suddenly felt something constricting her chest, huge block of ice dropped inside her stomach – are you two…did I…? –
- We are close, but not that close. –
- Ermmm, yes. Thank you. – Hermione felt at loss “What the hell that meant? Are they together? Former lovers? Friends with benefits? Isn’t Luna married?”
- Did he gave you a pet name yet? –
- Kitten. – blurted Hermione, then slapped the hand over her mouth. What was with her this morning? It was as she woken up dosed with Veritaserum.
- That is cute. You glow, you are more yourself than you were even in school. That is good. –
- Ermmm, yes. Snape removed most of the curses, healer removed Bella’s curse. –
- No, that is not it. You are healing. – Luna looked serious now – I don’t think I’ll stay for the ravioli after all. –
- Luna, I’m sure Snape would love to have you for lunch with us. Me too. –
- I know, but you two have so much to talk. –
- I don’t think that talking time is an issue, we are sort of locked up in here. –
- I think that solution to your problem is easy, but you’ll figure it out on your own, in your own time. –
- Luna, do you know how we can break this curse? –
- I am not the curse breaker. – Luna shook her head – I’m going to talk to Severus and leave you two alone, you do have a lot to discuss. –
Before she could react, Luna stood up and walked to the kitchen door, but didn’t go through them. Only second later Snape entered the room.
~ S ~ S ~ S ~
He grumbled at his chin while he was working around the kitchen. What did they talk about. He wasn’t worried that Luna would reveal any of his secrets, but at the same time Luna was unpredictable at best. Not able to withstand any more he decided to join them, whether Luna like it or not. Walking into the room he nearly bumped at her, one swift glance at Hermione told him that Luna already managed to scramble her brain.
- Severus! We need to talk. –
- What did you do to her? –
- We talked. –
- I can see that. – he chuckled
- You treat her good Severus. She was through so much already. –
- Did you ever doubted in me? – he raised an eyebrow
- No, but I thought it is smart to tell you anyway. –
- Yes, you would. – he smiled – Luna… -
- It is all right Severus, I already talked to him. You can do it one time. –
- Luna, are you sure you are not the seer? –
- You insulting the seers again. – Luna shook her head – Rolf sends you his regards, he misses you. –
- And I him. – he smiled – Send him… -
- He knows. – Luna' bright eyes were firmly on his – Are you sure it is smart to do it without talking to her first? –
- I need to test… -
- I know. –
- You never asked if she is going to have a problem… -
- She won’t. – her soft hand caressed his cheek
- Luna, you are one of a kind. – he smiled lowering his head.
~ S ~ S ~ S ~
Hermione observed Snape and Luna standing at the kitchen door, whispering. They were close. Another block of ice dropped to her stomach, Severus was relaxed with Luna. His smile was genuine and eyes had soft glow. Sudden, and quite unexpected surge of hatred toward Luna swirled inside her. “They are probably lovers, you are the intruder here.” She had to remind herself of the fact that she doesn’t own Snape.
As they talked, they got closer, Luna’s hand cupped his cheek. She sighed, wishing that at least once he would look at her the way he looked at Luna in that moment. His head bend down, and Luna lifted her chin propping to her toes, in the next second their lips meet. She wanted to turn her head and give them some privacy, but instead was mesmerised, eyes wide, unblinking. Every nerve in her body screamed. “They do look lovely together.” whispered voice “I…can’t…he’s mine.” “Just relax and enjoy the show.” “How can you say that.” “Because, they are sexy, because you like what you see, because he’s yours and nothing’s going to change that.”
The kiss didn’t last long. Luna had that dreamy air around her, gazing into his eyes with gentle smile. Hermione stifled the disapproving growl and jealous pang. They whispered some more before Luna smiled at Severus and walked to take the spot next to her.
- You didn’t mind, did you? – Hermione just shook her head, not trusting her voice or what might come out of her mouth, given her track since morning she might verbally attack Luna out of the blue – He is a good kisser. You are lucky. – Hermione shrugged – Well, you handled it well, the curse didn’t kick in. –
- What!? –
- You didn’t think I kissed him for no reason? –
- No, but… -
- Mhm, that is nice. – Luna smiled dreamily and tilted her head – Did you ever kissed a girl? –
- No, I…why? –
- Would you like to? –
- WHAT!?! –
- Mhmmmm. – Luna’s hand slowly cuddled her eyebrow – You may even like it, girls are better kissers by far, you know. –
- Luna… - Hermione started to panic, it was obvious what Luna intended to do. No, she could not do that, ok she wanted to try but not…not with Luna, Luna was her friend. Sure, somewhere existed some law against kissing your friends, it must have been written at one point of history.
She nearly jumped from surprise when ghost of Luna' breath tickled her lips. Soft lips descended on hers and she gasped. Excitement surged through her and she closed her eyes. Luna' lips were soft and tasted like cotton candy. She gently caressed her lips, lightly licking at her full bottom lip. Hermione shivered, her hand moved without consulting her brain, digging in to Lunas hair, soft the same way her lips were soft. What was she doing? Apparently, she was returning the kiss, dragging her tongue over Luna’s lips, asking for the permit to go further. Luna leaned to her, pressing her body as much as it was possible, to hers, wiggling her tongue in her mouth. Exploring with same airy curiosity she did with everything. Soft sigh, breathed over their caressing tongues sending delicious tingles through her body. She almost felt at loss when Luna separated from her. Dazed, she touched her fingers to her lips, looking at bright blue eyes.
- You are great kisser. – sighed Luna – I’d like to kiss you again sometime, when you are ready. – she stood up – I’ll be going now. – she raised her voice a bit – I’ll see myself out Severus, when you are ready send me a note, Ralf and I will come to dinner. – she looked at her again, whispering - I think you should go over there and kiss him, he does seem bit jealous. -
With that Luna just walked out of the house. Hermione blinked couple of times to the door, wondering. Then she turned to Snape. He was leaning on the wall next to the kitchen, his eyes blazing, his hands folded over the chest. She thought that Luna was wrong, he didn’t look jealous to her, just sexy.
