The meeting had been upbeat and informative and Hermione was pleased with the progress she had been able to report about on behalf of her team. The Australians had already begun testing the potion Severus had provided and were reporting promising results in line with the ones her team had been seeing.
The Bulgarians had tweaked the recipe slightly, which had yielded a completely different but almost as interesting set of results. The Egyptians, who had been working on yet another variation of the recipe, were about ready to test their potion and expected to have something to report at the next meeting. The Brazilians were working on another area of research which seemed almost as promising as the potion currently under test and were hopeful that even if the virus mutated again in the later stages of testing, this would be another strand they could immediately follow up with.
Hermione rejoined her team ready to provide a briefing on what she had learnt, feeling optimistic about the way the project was going but with that same feeling of dread still eating away inside her at the thought of having to talk to Severus.
She was safe for the time being as she was certain that he wouldn’t discuss it while the rest of the team were around, but it would only be a matter of time before they were alone again and then nothing she could do would forestall the conversation any longer.
But Hermione still didn’t want to think about it, didn’t want to consider the questions she needed to tackle before she could sensibly discuss things with Severus. She needed to concentrate on her work and nothing else — even if it meant leaving early and going home to Ron and yet more arguments, so she didn’t get caught alone with Severus.
The team had been waiting eagerly for her arrival, all seemingly in good spirits even before they heard the latest news. Hermione had noticed that Severus being at the laboratory always seemed to boost the mood of everyone he came into contact with — such a marked difference from the effect he used to have on his students during his time at Hogwarts.
She smiled gratefully as Jack Sloper provided her with a mug of tea and Catherine Wood cleared a space for her to sit down in the centre of their work area. Within minutes the whole team had assembled and Hermione took them through the main points of the meeting, answering questions and clarifying the reports. By the time the briefing was over Hermione had almost forgotten about the unwanted conversation.
Severus hadn’t, though.
Within only a few minutes of Hermione returning to her office he was knocking on her door, determined that this time she wouldn’t get away. Hermione, with no reason now to leave the laboratory, tried vainly to stop him from entering but was unable to be too abrasive without risking the curiosity of the rest of the team.
Hermione knew that some of the older members of the team were aware that there was a ‘history’ between her and Severus, mainly because of her friendship with Harry, which occasionally brought up some uncomfortable arguments between them especially when Severus felt she wasn’t working to her full potential, but as far as she was aware the team had no idea about their late night and early morning activities and she wasn’t about to let them in on the secret.
She sat down behind her desk, trying to quell the sudden feeling of nausea as Severus closed the door behind him.
‘Now really isn’t the time,’ she told him wearily, hoping to make him realise that she wasn’t eager to talk to him.
‘When is the time?’ Severus asked somewhat tersely. ‘Now seems as good a time as any to me. At least you can’t run away and try to ignore me this time.’
‘The team are out there,’ Hermione reminded him, her voice a sharp hiss.
‘Yes, and they think I’m talking to you about the project,’ Severus replied sensibly. ‘They don’t care what we’re talking about. They’ve got work to do and they’re busy with that. But they’ll soon start to care if we don’t talk and don’t get this sorted out. I can’t go on like this, Hermione. It’s going to affect my and everyone else’s work, and sooner rather than later.’
Hermione looked pained. ‘I can’t talk about this with you, Severus. Not now. I’m not ready.’
‘When, then?’ Severus repeated the question he had asked her earlier. ‘When are you going to be ready, Hermione? You hide behind your work so you don’t have to face up to what’s happening in your personal life but you can’t do that forever. You need to stop hiding and make some firm decisions.’
He took a moment to calm himself, aware his temper was rising and that arguing would do no good, then stared at Hermione, his eyes boring into hers, not allowing her to look away.
‘I love you, Hermione.’
Severus paused for a moment to let the words sink in, then before she could respond he continued, ‘I honestly never thought I would say those words to anyone and it’s not something I’ve looked for, I can assure you. But you came along and changed my world in so many ways and I really can’t imagine you not being part of my life now.
‘I don’t want to sneak around, fucking you on the desk when we get a quiet moment early in the morning or late at night when everyone else has gone home. I want to take you to bed, want to go to sleep with you at night and wake up with you in the morning. I want to love you and support you in your career, want to help you reach heights you’ve never even dreamed of achieving.
‘. . . I want to marry you!’
Hermione stared at him in shock. She had known that Severus wanted something more than the casual liaison that she had steadfastly refused to consider as anything serious, but she hadn’t realised that the taciturn and sometimes witheringly sarcastic man had actually fallen in love with her.
She was stunned to admit that she had no idea how she felt about him as she had so fiercely rejected thinking about it. It took her breath away and caused that fluttering in both her heart and her stomach to begin again. How could Severus be in love with her?
‘I’m already married,’ she blurted out, feeling stupid even as she said it.
After everything he had just admitted to her that was the best she could come out with? It wasn’t even as if she and Ron had a decent marriage. They hardly spoke anymore and they certainly didn’t have sex — in fact, they hadn’t had sex since well before she had spent the twenty-four hours at Spinner’s End.
But the whole thing was overwhelming and Hermione couldn’t process her own feelings in light of what Severus had just said without time to think seriously and work out what she wanted . . . what she needed to do. What she had told him was correct, she wasn’t ready to talk, and now, thanks to his confession, she wasn’t at all sure when she would be.
‘Is that it?’ Severus asked in amazement, his tone bitter and argumentative. ‘That’s your entire contribution to the discussion, is it: you’re already married? Let’s face it, Hermione, Weasley’s no good for you — he never has been and he’s not going to get any better in the future. He doesn’t make you happy, doesn’t give you the support you need, and he’s probably completely shit in bed as well since you’re fucking me at every available opportunity.’
‘I told you I wasn’t ready to have this discussion with you, Severus,’ Hermione told him. ‘You were the one who forced it so you only have yourself to blame if I don’t give you the answer you want.’
‘So are you saying you want to stay with him, then?’ Severus demanded, his voice growing louder.
Hermione sighed and rubbed her eyes again. ‘I’m not saying anything one way or another. I told you, I haven’t even thought about anything to do with my private life since the project began. Until this virus is eliminated or at least held in check there’s nothing more important than my work.’
‘That’s bollocks,’ Severus retorted angrily. ‘You spend most of your life in this laboratory and don’t tell me it’s because you’re thinking about the bloody virus. You’re just trying to escape your crap marriage; trying to keep away from the husband who doesn’t understand you and doesn’t give you what you need.
‘I give you everything you need and until now I’ve never pushed it, but I can’t stand it any longer. You need to make a decision. Are you going to leave Weasley and make a fresh start with me or do we end it and I’ll go back to Spinner’s End and blessed solitude?’
‘That’s not fair, Severus. You can’t expect me to make such a major decision on the spur of the moment like that. I need time to think about things, to consider what’s best.’
‘You need to leave Weasley and come and live with me,’ Severus said bluntly.
‘I’m not prepared to make a decision that important without serious consideration,’ Hermione rebutted.
There was a knock on the door and the argument ceased abruptly as Hermione suddenly realised that she and Severus had been shouting at each other. She was glaring at him across the desk, just as he was scowling at her.
Severus looked away from her and went to open the door. Charlotte Jewster, youngest of the team and too young to have known Severus as a teacher and hence unused to his scowl, was standing there looking tremulous.
His face returned to its usual far milder state as he made to usher her inside the office. Charlotte shook her head, not wanting to enter. She had heard the raised voices but had been unable to discern the actual words although it was clear an argument of some sort was in progress. She swallowed, slightly anxious at having interrupted them.
‘I’m sorry to disturb you but your husband’s here, Hermione,’ she said quietly. ‘He’s come to take you to lunch.’
‘Ron’s here?’ Hermione sounded a little surprised.
Charlotte nodded.
‘Okay, thanks, Charlotte. I’ll be out in a minute. Severus and I have finished now, anyway.’
Charlotte hurried away, eager to leave the unpleasant atmosphere of the office behind. Hermione stood up and made her way around the desk.
Trying to keep her voice calm and conciliatory she told Severus, ‘I will think about it seriously, I promise you I will. But you have to give me time, Severus.’
He glanced out at the laboratory, making sure no one was listening to them, then leant close to Hermione, his voice low but still bearing traces of his anger.
‘I’ll give you until next Monday to make your decision.’ Hermione looked as if she was about to protest but Severus shook his head, warning her not to speak. ‘That gives you the best part of a week to think about things. It honestly shouldn’t take that long, not when you really consider it properly, but I’ll give you that much time as I’m a generous man.’
Without another word he left the office, smiling as he made his way over to where the team was working, briefly hailing Weasley on his way. Inside he was fuming although he knew he was being slightly unfair to Hermione in expecting her to make an immediate decision because of his declaration of love. He still thought he was right, though. She would be better off with him, and seeing Weasley now, dishevelled and looking weary and stressed, he was even more convinced.
Hermione emerged now, too, and walked over to Ron and kissed him on the cheek, ignoring the glare she was certain Severus would be throwing her way at the gesture.
‘What are you doing here?’ she asked, trying to keep her voice light rather than accusatory. It was extremely rare that Ron came to the laboratory, especially to invite her to lunch.
‘I thought we could have lunch,’ Ron said. There was a slightly pleading tone to his voice as if he thought Hermione might refuse him.
Hermione, seeing the invitation as an opportunity to escape from Severus and his unreasonable demands, smiled. ‘That would be nice. Come on then.’
She took his arm and the two of them left the laboratory.
‘So why did you want to have lunch with me? It’s a bit unexpected . . . and unusual,’ Hermione said, sounding curious, once they were seated in a Muggle café down the road from the Ministry of Magic.
‘Am I not allowed to take my wife to lunch, then?’ Ron asked.
Hermione gave him a weak smile. ‘Of course you are, but it doesn’t happen very often, does it?’
Ron grinned back. ‘I think I saved you back there, didn’t I?’ When Hermione looked confused he added, ‘It sounded like you were in the middle of a right barnstormer with old Snape.’
Hermione shrugged, trying to look nonchalant, but her heart was suddenly pounding again. Had Ron heard what she and Severus were talking about?
‘It was just a slight disagreement, that’s all. Nothing to write home about. You know what Severus is like . . . so sometimes we don’t see eye to eye.’
‘I dunno why you insist on working with him,’ Ron said, his nose wrinkling with the disgust he still felt for the ex-Potions Master.
‘Because he’s brilliant,’ Hermione replied fervently. ‘You know he’s the best potion-maker in the country, maybe even the world, and he’s been a breath of fresh air for the project. He’s made such a difference to the team. Things are finally looking hopeful. I can actually say that we’re within a couple of months of getting a cure for the virus . . . just as long as it doesn’t mutate again.’
‘So, maybe it’s time to let him go back to his life in the Muggle world,’ Ron suggested.
Hermione frowned. ‘Why? We’re not there yet and we need Severus.’
‘Do you? Are you sure you’re not just projecting onto him? You’re brilliant, Hermione, and you don’t need that greasy git coming in and taking all the credit for your hard work.’
Hermione shook her head and gave a small sigh. ‘He honestly isn’t doing that, Ron. Far from it. He’s doing everything he can to keep his name out of it. You know he didn’t collect his Order of Merlin award, and he wouldn’t even agree to come to work in the laboratory until I guaranteed that he wouldn’t be pestered by anyone wanting to talk about his role in the battle against Voldemort.
‘He’s only spoken to Kingsley once or twice since he’s come back, but he’s made such a difference to morale, and not just to our team either. Severus has increased the productivity of all the teams and his latest potion could turn out to be a lifesaver — quite literally.’
‘But if you’re arguing with him as much as you were earlier is it worth the hassle? Especially if you’re that close to finding the cure?’
‘Today was quite an unusual occurrence,’ Hermione admitted. ‘Normally it’s just a small disagreement here and there.’ She crossed her fingers under the table as she added, ‘I’m not really entirely sure what caused today’s argument but I’m certain things will be back to normal by the time I get back.’
‘What do you want to eat?’ Ron asked. He was now studying the menu and Hermione was fairly certain that he hadn’t heard her last comment.
Hermione looked at her own menu for a few seconds. ‘I’m not sure,’ she mused.
‘I think I’m going to go for some pasta. The chicken, bacon and mushroom bake sounds quite interesting,’ Ron said.
Hermione ran her eye down the list. She still wasn’t feeling hungry. In fact, if anything she felt rather queasy although she knew that was just a hangover from her argument with Severus.
‘I’m going to have a ham and mushroom omelette with a side salad,’ she announced, ‘and a cup of tea, too.’
Ron raised his hand to indicate to the waitress that they were ready to order. A couple of minutes later she was gone and he and Hermione were looking down at the stainless steel cutlery wrapped in red napkins and a white ceramic bowl containing various sachets of sauce. Another few minutes passed and the waitress returned with two white mugs, both containing tea, the strings of the teabags hanging over the side as they steeped in the milky water.
‘I’ve decided to leave the Ministry,’ Ron proclaimed once the waitress had left again.
He prodded at his teabag with the teaspoon for a moment before looking warily at Hermione, trying to gauge her reaction to the announcement.
Hermione stared at him in astonishment. She had known for a long time that Ron was unhappy in his work as an Auror but had never expected him to do anything about it. She wasn’t entirely sure how she felt about this revelation, especially coming so closely after Severus’ announcement.
‘Well, you’ve been disenchanted with the job for ages, haven’t you?’ she replied, sounding sympathetic, as she removed the teabag from her own cup and stirred the tea. ‘I’m sort of surprised it’s taken you this long to decide to go. I thought you might leave after Neville went.’
Ron shrugged. ‘I didn’t mind it too much then, but it’s been wearing me down for a couple of years now and I really don’t think I can take any more.’
‘So what are you going to do instead?’ Hermione asked. Her face assumed a slight frown. ‘I suppose you have got something else lined up?’
Ron’s face lit up as he nodded happily, looking more animated than Hermione had seen him in a long time.
‘I’m going to work with George. He needs help running the shop, especially as he’s about to open a new branch in Hogsmeade. He’s buying Zonko’s old place.’
Hermione nodded in what she hoped was an interested manner, encouraging Ron to continue. The waitress reappeared with their plates of food and Hermione felt her stomach give a small rumble as she studied her meal. It looked quite good and she was now glad that she had ordered something to eat.
‘I’ve thought about it for a while,’ Ron admitted as he delved into his pasta, a plume of steam rising from the hot meal. ‘But you know George was having a really tough time getting over Fred and I didn’t want to get in the way of the grieving process. Now he’s hooked up with Angelina and they’re getting married so I assumed he’d be a bit more open to the suggestion, and he was.’ He chuckled. ‘He was really pleased, actually. As I said, he’s expanding and could do with another pair of hands.’
He ate for several minutes before adding, ‘I think it’ll really suit me, working at the shop with George.’
Hermione sat quietly, eating her own meal as Ron talked. She, too, thought Ron was making the right decision and was glad that George was giving his brother the opportunity to leave a job he loathed to take one that he would probably revel in.
‘I think you’ve made a good choice,’ she told him. Ron looked relieved that she wasn’t annoyed with him for his decision. ‘What did Harry say?’
Ron shrugged again. ‘He knows how I’ve been feeling so I don’t think he was too surprised. The job suits him down to the ground and he’s going to be made the head of the department shortly, I expect, but he knows it was getting me down. He’s pleased for me, as is Ginny.’
‘Have you told your mum?’ Hermione asked.
Ron shook his head. ‘Not yet. I wanted to tell you first, and I thought we could break it to her on Sunday. We’ve been invited for lunch, along with the rest of the family. I suspect she’ll be a bit disappointed that I’m leaving the Ministry.’
‘She’ll realise that you’re making the right decision,’ Hermione said, hoping her voice didn’t sound as flat as she felt.
Although she loved the Weasley family, all of them en masse could be a little wearing, especially when she wasn’t feeling particularly in synch with Ron, and the idea of spending the day with them, especially when she had so much vital work to do — and an important decision to make — didn’t fill her with joy.
‘Yeah, you’re probably right, and I suppose George can reassure her too,’ Ron agreed happily as he finished the last of his pasta, washing it down with the remnants of his tea.
He sat back for a few minutes and watched Hermione finish her salad, then ordered a portion of apple pie and custard and another two teas. Hermione turned down the offer of a pudding, now stuffed after the meal.
‘So now that I’m moving jobs and you’re getting to the end of your project I thought we could start thinking about the future,’ Ron posited as he tucked into the dessert with gusto.
Hermione stared at him through narrowed eyes, her heart sinking and the queasy feeling suddenly rising within her once more as she removed the teabag from her cup.
‘What do you mean?’ she asked quietly, hoping that she didn’t sound too hostile.
If she did, Ron clearly hadn’t noticed, buoyed as he was by his impending move to Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes.
‘You said the project is coming to an end shortly,’ Ron pointed out. ‘George is planning on opening the new shop in about six months’ time, once it’s been completely gutted and redecorated. I think he’s going to offer me the chance to run it and I thought it might be a good time for a new start for us.’
He gazed at Hermione hopefully.
Hermione’s heart sank even further. ‘When you say a new start—’
‘Well, hopefully you’ll have finished the project by then,’ Ron enthused, clearly envisaging in his mind his plans for their future. ‘We can move to Hogsmeade. There’s a flat above the shop, although if things go well we can probably afford to get a house there eventually. I thought you might like to take some time off — to bask in your well-deserved glory after finding a cure for the virus. Then, if you want, you can help me in the shop. It would be great if we worked there together.’
Hermione didn’t say anything as she sipped her tea, trying to imagine working in a joke shop in Hogsmeade with Ron. It didn’t matter what type of spin she tried to put on it, the idea filled her with dread. At best she knew she would find it tedious, at worst it would be a complete nightmare, having to deal with all those customers, mainly children, who found the joke products amusing in a way she never could.
‘Hogsmeade would be a great place for us to bring up kids, too,’ Ron continued expressing his thoughts, not realising that Hermione wasn’t embracing the idea as wholeheartedly as he was. ‘Now the project’s close to finishing we can finally think about having a baby . . . or several. I have to admit that I’d really like a whole brood, but that’s probably because I’m from a big family. Two or three would be good, though.’
Hermione sank lower in her seat as the ideas Ron was suggesting washed over her like a tsunami. She knew there had been a time when she first married him that the things he was talking about would have been as appealing to her as they were to him. Not the joke shop, though. Despite her admiration for the impressive magic the twins had achieved with their products, Hermione had always been too staid to enjoy the joke shop, but she would happily have moved to Hogsmeade with Ron and started a family.
Now she couldn’t even envisage the two of them sharing a house in Hogsmeade, let alone working and living in a flat above the joke shop; and the idea of having children, and no doubt being expected to stay at home to raise them, left her feeling as if she wanted to cry. The problem was that if she told Ron what she was really thinking she would burst his bubble and yet another argument, which she really couldn’t face today, would surely ensue.
Instead, she smiled weakly and drank her tea.
‘I know I’m springing all of this on you a bit, but I thought it would give you a chance to think about it, especially if the project’s coming to an end,’ Ron said as he put down his spoon, having finished his dessert. He took hold of Hermione’s hand and squeezed it as he smiled at her again. ‘I know things have been a bit difficult between us recently, Hermione, but this could be what we need — a new start. New jobs, a new home, a family. This could really turn things around for us.’
Hermione allowed him to hold her hand for a few minutes but when his hopeful expression became too much for her to take she pulled away and stood up, looking at her watch.
‘I need to get back to work. I had a meeting with the other teams this morning and I promised I would give Kingsley an update on where we are.’
Ron stood up too, looking a little deflated. Hermione smiled at him again, a real smile this time.
‘Thank you for telling me about your decision to move jobs. I think it’s a good choice and Hogsmeade’s a nice place to live.’ If a bit in the back end of beyond, her mind added silently. ‘I don’t know yet what’s happening with the project or what will happen after but it’s good to know there are options available.’
Ron looked a little mollified. ‘I’ll pay the bill. Can you wait a minute or do you need to go?’
‘I can wait,’ Hermione confirmed, although she would have given anything at that moment to be able to run away.
Ron went to the counter and paid, then took Hermione’s hand as they went out into the street.
‘I know you’re always a bit twitchy when I mention children,’ he said tentatively, ‘and I don’t want to start another argument, really I don’t, but I think starting a family would be a good thing for us, Hermione, especially as you’ll be leaving the project at the top of your game. I’ve always wanted kids . . . well, you know that, and now seems like the right time to be thinking about it.’
Hermione was suddenly uncomfortable again and wanted to let go of Ron’s hand but she didn’t dare in case he turned on her.
‘Did you know Ginny’s pregnant?’ Ron asked, sounding casual when they reached the door of the Ministry and were about to part.
Hermione stared at him in surprise. ‘No! Then again, I haven’t spoken to her for a couple of weeks. We’ve both been busy. When did she find out? When’s it due?’
Ron shrugged. Slightly accusingly he told her, ‘Harry told me about it yesterday. I would have told you last night but you didn’t get home until late and I was so tired that it completely slipped my mind. I think he said she’s about ten weeks. The Healer confirmed it a couple of days ago, apparently. Harry’s stoked about it, as you can imagine.’
‘I’m sure they both are, although that’s going to put an end to Ginny’s career, for a while, at least,’ Hermione pointed out.
‘Harry told me that he’d suggested she might want to give up the Quidditch and do something a little less dangerous.’ Ron grinned wickedly. ‘Ginny told him to go and boil his head. She said she’s perfectly capable of playing until she’s at least seven months pregnant so he can forget all about her sitting at home knitting baby booties like the obedient little wife. She did agree to talk it over with the team manager, though, to make sure that it’s safe for her to continue.’
Hermione chuckled. ‘Knowing Ginny she’ll still be playing when the baby’s due. It wouldn’t surprise me if it ends up being born on the Quidditch pitch.’
Ron shook his head. ‘Harry won’t let that happen. Nor will my mum. You know what she’s like. As soon as Ginny starts showing she’ll be nagging her to keep her feet firmly on the ground. There’s going to be a few fireworks there, I reckon.’
A small shudder ran through Hermione as for a moment she imagined herself pregnant and being subjected to the tender mercies of Ron’s family. Molly Weasley was a lovely and caring woman but she could also be domineering and interfering and would no doubt make Hermione’s life a misery, especially if she tried to keep working rather than playing the homemaker. Even Ginny was no match for her mother, so Hermione stood no chance.
She leant in to kiss Ron on the cheek. ‘I’ve got to go. Thanks for lunch. It was nice to spend some time together for a change.’
‘Maybe you should try coming home earlier, then we could spend a bit more time together,’ Ron suggested. He tried to make it sound like a lighthearted joke but wasn’t sure he had succeeded.
Hermione gave a small frown but forced herself to smile. ‘I think I will be having some early nights this week. It’s been pretty intense for the last few months but now we’re making some real progress I think it’s time for me to recharge my batteries a bit before what will hopefully be the final push.’
Ron looked pleased. ‘Good. Maybe we’ll even get to share a meal or two together.’
‘Don’t push it,’ Hermione said, although it was clear she was joking. ‘Leaving the lab before ten is going to be enough of a challenge, don’t try to tie me down to meal deadlines.’
Ron wrapped his arms around Hermione, hugging her tightly.
‘It’ll just be good to spend some time with you for a change.’
A flash of guilt raced through Hermione, making her pull away from Ron. She couldn’t tell him that the real reason she was going to be going home early, the only reason, was that she was trying to avoid being alone with Severus.
She also needed time alone to finally do the thinking she had been putting off for so long. It really was time to consider her options, to decide which of the futures already offered to her or another future as yet unconsidered would be her way ahead. She couldn’t do that with Ron around, in the same way that she couldn’t do it with Severus there. But although she needed to sort out her life there was no reason to upset Ron when he was trying so hard, so she relented a little.
‘I know I won’t be home for dinner tonight as I’ve got stuff to sort out and I’m not sure how long the meeting with Kingsley’s going to take, but I’ll definitely be back in time tomorrow.’
Ron beamed. ‘In honour of this rare occurrence, I will cook us a meal. Something spicy, I think.’ He winked at her.
‘That sounds great,’ Hermione said, trying to force herself to feel a bit more excited at the prospect than she actually was. ‘But now I really do have to go. I’ll see you tonight.’
