Chapter 13
Severus
looked at the black rose that he was holding in his hand. After going to the
infirmary and splinting up his nose, he went to all the flower shops around wizarding Britain to try and get what he wanted which were
full red roses. But since Valentine’s had just passed recently, he was forced
to come up with a second plan. Instead of roses, he decided to get petals.
Standing
next to Hermione’s door, inside her chambers, he waited. The beating of his
pulse fast, as his nerves tightened his stomach. Checking his pocket watch, he
waited, knowing she was to arrive any moment.

Carrying
a big transfigurations book in her arms, Hermione clenched her teeth in anger
as she walked along the corridors of Hogwarts. During the day, not only did she
have to teach her classes, but some of Severus’s as well. Pissed is what she
was. She didn’t want to do anything for him, but was forced to because of Albus, who also took care of some of his classes.
It
was all last minute. She couldn’t understand it. Severus was at the staff
meeting before class hours, and the mention of him not being able to teach his
classes wasn’t even mentioned. If it was another teacher, she wouldn’t have
been mad but it was him. Plus, there were no explanations as to why he was
gone.
Not
that she cared or worried. No, she
didn’t she reminded herself. He was still an arrogant git,
and probably told Albus to make her teach his
classes. Gods, she wanted to wring his neck. When she got to her chambers, she
opened her door and her jaw dropped in surprise.
Hermione’s
entire living room was brightly lit with tea candles floating above. Her entire
floor was covered with red rose petals. She closed the door behind her, never
taking her eyes off what was in front of her. It was very beautiful.
Severus
watched her not far behind her. She didn’t see him when she entered. Slowly, he
reached for her arm, and started to speak. “Hermione—“
Frightened
and on instinct, Hermione pulled away from the intruder, spinning, and swung
her book towards the man.
Knocked
off his feet, and once again, in severe pain, Severus held his nose in both his
hands as he slowly slid down the wall. “Damn Hermione! Is that the greeting I
get?”
“Severus?”
Hermione gasped in shock, putting her hand to her chest. “What the hell are you
doing here? How’d you get into my chambers? You gave me a fright.”
“Gave
you a fright?!” Severus muffled. He pulled his hands away, and noticed the
blood. “I guess this is useless,” he said tossing the splint off his nose away.
He needed to get a new one, and would have to go to Poppy again.
“Oh
my God!” she squatted down on the ground, noticing the blood and the swelling
that was black and blue, all the way below his eyes. “I’m so sorry.”
“It
was already broken anyways,” he said grabbing his outer robes, and using them
to stop the bleeding. When he saw her frown, he explained, “Trelawney broke my
nose this morning. In fact, she did it in the same manner you did. Who knew
books would be such hazardous weapons?”
A
laugh was about to escape Hermione’s lips, before she bit on the bottom of
them, trying to hold it back.
“Oh,
so now you’re going to laugh at me again? Tormenting me has now gone up to
physically hurting me. Wonderful!” Severus said sarcastically.
“Is
that for me?” Hermione said eyeing the black rose and picking it up.
“Yes
and the rose petals are just garbage for the house-elves to clean.” Severus
answered. He paused, hands away from his face and looked at her with soft eyes.
“There are exactly ten thousand petals scattered about. They were supposed to
be roses, but the flower shops ran out. That single rose was supposed to come
with a card, but Albus lied. I don’t write poetry—hence no card. But, I know that… I love you
Hermione.”
Instantly,
in seconds, Hermione’s heart was whole and complete. She looked at him with a
watery smile on her face, as tears ran down her cheeks. “Oh Sev!”
she said, throwing herself at him, and kissed him on the cheeks again and
again.
“Ow! Ow! Ow!,” Severus said, trying to pull away. He was unsuccessful
though, sliding down the floor, taking the happy woman with him. “Watch the
nose!”
“Stop
being a baby!” Hermione laughed and swatted at him playfully, before giving him
one big wet kiss on his cheek.
“I’m
not being a baby!” Severus growled back. “I broke my nose twice today! You
nearly gave me a heart attack on Valentine’s and made my balls ache before and
after we made love. Let’s not forget my aching back. You are one hellcat in
bed. Gods woman, falling in love with you has become a
hazard to my health! You will be the death of me.”
Hermione
looked down at Severus, looking into his intense midnight eyes. “I love you
too,” she said softly. She then lowered her head, until her lips were at the
edge of his ear. “How would you like to punish
me in bed? Give me a spanking for being a bad girl,” she purred. When her
hand traveled down to Severus’s crotch, cupping him in her hand, she felt him
jerk up to her. “Go to Poppy now, and when you get back, I’ll be in bed, all
set and ready for you.”
Severus
roughly grabbed Hermione by her hips, and flipped them over until he was on
top. “Minx!” he growled at her, before jumping on his feet and running out the
door.
Alone,
Hermione got hold of the black rose, and sniffed it as she closed her eyes.
Severus was in her life, and in her heart, permanently. She couldn’t be any
happier with her life at the moment.
