A/N: I know I know...It has been way too long since I last updated but everything fell into place with my studies and whatnot. You all are now reading the text of a newly certified pharmacy technician! WOOT! Now, I really do apologize that it has taken this long but I lost my muse for a little bit and it seems to be coming back to me now. I guess I lost track after DH came out, but again, I'm back on track and I am really REALLY sorry it's taken so long. So here's the newest chapter and enjoy!

Chapter 8: The Unexpected

Halloween had come and gone and Hermione was knee deep in research during Severus' class hours and in his lab when he had a free period. They hadn't even really discussed where they're relationship was after the night she had given him her virginity, although they still did share a kiss here and there. She shuddered slightly at the memory of her deflowering, how he had taken her almost covetously, but so gently as well. She shook her head, telling herself she needed to get a grip and just hold out. She looked at the papers on the work table, going over her configurations. She and Severus were at a standstill with the Lycanthropy Elixir. The gold and glass cauldrons had not adverse reactions but the gold didn't react in the time allotted. So the glass was their only option at this rate but the potion hadn't turned the color they still needed. There was still something missing.

C'mon witch, think!! She thought. "Lycanthropy is a form of evil and possession, despite the deposition of the person." WAIT! THAT'S IT! She practically threw herself up from the seat and rushed to her quarters to grab her calculations. She had a crazed look as she bent over the table, going over the arithmancy figures and then grabbing fresh parchment and a quill. She smiled and looked at the differences and then a shock ran through her. They had done it...They really had done it. All they needed to add at this point was a teaspoon of powdered moonstone, about a bushel of aconite, and last but not least: Three drops of the imbiber�s blood.

Hermione whooped wildly and ran back to the dungeons, slamming straight into Severus as he exited his office. " I figured it out! Take a look! We need to get Remus here as soon as possible..." She exclaimed, positively breathless from her quick dashes upstairs and back.

Severus looked at the calculations, his eyes widening in surprise. " Hermione, this is amazing, but there's a bit of a problem...Minerva just flooed me to say that Lupin and Tonks have taken a bit of a holiday and won't be returning until the full moon is nigh..." he said.

Hermione groaned. She hated when something like this happened. She wanted to be sure that Remus was the first one to be treated by the elixir and the full moon had just passed. They had to wait for weeks for him now. " Damn...We'll just have to bottle it for now. The last thing to be added is the afflicted blood as it is. Looks like I'm stuck with just my studies for now. "

Severus smirked and smiled. " How would you like to run the first and second years classes while I observe from the back. I don't know why, but ever since you gave a guest lecture on the polyjuice potion and some of its repercussions, they seem to prefer you to me�� he said sarcastically.

� You mean it Severus?� she said, smiling at the affirmative. � Thank you�Even to much studying and not enough hands on makes it dull��

Severus smirked. � I know�That�s why I asked.� He said, his eyebrow raised. He handed her a piece of parchment and turned toward his desk. � I suggest you look over this lesson plan and come up with a game plan for Monday. Be forewarned. It�s a double class and it�s Slytherin and Gryffindor.�

Hermione nodded and took off to her rooms to get everything set up for Monday.

Monday came around and the students filed in after breakfast. Severus was sitting disillusioned in the back of the room, awaiting Hermione�s arrival. He had a stack of parchments in his lap that he would grade while observing Hermione with the second year students. The students chattered quietly when they noticed that Severus was not seated at his desk and were coming up with some wild theories about what was going on.

Without warning, the dungeon door slammed open and Hermione made a brisk entrance with a satchel on her shoulder. � Good Morning class. As you may or may not know, I am Hermione Granger. I am Professor Snape�s intern and for the rest of this term, as I know it, I will be covering the first and second year courses. I have spoken with Headmistress McGonagall and she has told me that I can award and deduct points per conduct of the student.

� I will not tolerate any behavior that would be disastrous, or foolhardy. I also will be doing something slightly different. I want all of you to gather your things and to stand at the back wall and take your seats where I call them.� Hermione said, giving the students a very stern glare.

The Slytherins gave her a bit of a glare as they stood up and against the back of the wall. This meant that they wouldn�t get the preferential treatment they were used too. Well, they would definitely test how long she could handle them. Professor Snape was nowhere in sight after all.

� Excuse me, but how are we supposed to address you?� second year Gryffindor Selena Morley said, her wide brown eyes hesitant.

� Just call me Ms. Granger. I�m not a professor, but I do hope to teach in either potions or charms once I�m finished with my schooling.� She replied.

Hermione began pairing up the students, one Slytherin and one Gryfinndor per table. She had asked Severus about each of the students and had set it up so that those who had needed help got it from they�re classmate.

All the Gryffindors sat down without question, some grumbling for a second or two about their lab partner. All the Slytherins however, all stayed lined up against the back wall. Hermione was shifting through her papers for a second before realizing that all the students weren�t seated.

� Excuse me, but I do believe the instructions were take your seat where I call them. That wasn�t just for the Gryffindors. Sit down or I�ll be taking away points.�

Some of the students looked at each other and voiced their disgruntled opinions of the Professor�s intern. There were still a handful that were refusing to sit down. Six to be exact.

Hermione turned back to the class and gave the remaining six students a rather stern stare. � Messrs. Perkins, Falley, Tasmond, and Redgins. Misses Toomey and Stames. Ten points from each of you, and gentlemen, you detention this even with Hagrid. He mentioned to me this me this morning that he needed some help with the grounds work. Ladies. This evening, you are to meet me by the painting of Sir Cadogan and we will be going up to the library so that you can dust the shelves for Madam Pince. I�ll be holding your wands so you�ll be doing this by hand.�

Severus smirked. He hadn�t known she really had it in her to dole it out like the best of them. His house would have to kiss some serious ass; as far as he was concerned of course, to get back the sixty points they had just lost. Bravo Hermione�Bravo indeed. He thought.

Hermione watched with thinly veiled pride as the six students took their seats. � Thank you for that utter waste of time. Now we are behind will have to work that much harder and faster to get through today�s lecture and lab work, so thank you very much�� Hermione said sarcastically. � All of you, parchment out.�

Hermione lifted a box and began to place down spelled quills, two per table. � These quills I designed myself. They allow the person, or persons in this case, to be able to write out everything I say during my lecture. If they are any diagrams to be drawn out, they automatically guide your hand to draw them perfectly.�

The students talked amongst themselves for a second and turned back to the front.

Hermione smiled at them all and went down to it. They wrote down they�re notes, some of the students found out they hard way what would happen with the quills if they tried to write a note to another classmate.

Amanda Higgins, a Slytherin student, screeched when the quill squirted ink in her face when she attempted to write a note to Damon Perkins. She looked up at Hermione, her eyes narrowed and she slammed her hands on the table. � You filthy mudblood! You bewitched these quills.�

� I told you that when I passed them out Ms. Higgins. Twenty points from Slytherin and if you open your mouth any further, you will be joining your dorm-mates in the library with me this evening. I will not tolerate the use of that word in this classroom, and I�ll be hard put to stand by and let anyone call me that name either.�

Amanda�s eyes narrowed even further, and threw the quill to the floor. � You should have learned your place, you piece of trash. You think you�re so great, but as far as I�m concerned, you are nothing, and will never be nothing. You should have died when Uncle Lucius had you and Harry Potter cornered�You are a living piece of blasphemy that should have been obliterated when you were conceived�� she said.

Severus jumped up at this point and stalked behind the student. � Ms. Higgins, that is far enough. Hermione, take a breather to calm down. Gryffindor students. There�s fifteen minutes until lunch, leave your things behind and come back when you are finished. As for the rest of you, stay right where you are.�

Amanda�s knees buckled when she heard Severus speak, as they thought he was nowhere to be found.

Severus stalked to the front of the classroom and slammed a hand down to the desk. � You are a disgrace to Slytherin house. Every single one of you is to blame for this atrocity. Eighty points lost because you all refused to listen to an adult in a position of authority. And you Ms. Higgins, I was fully aware that your father, and your cousin Draco had this discussion with you. You are the biggest disgrace here today. What got into all of you? Was it because I wasn�t in plain sight and you wanted to make my intern, MY STUDENT, upset. You all are a bunch of brainless idiots. Now get out of my sight.� Severus hissed. The students scampered except for a few of them.

� Sir, what about our point loss�� Damon Perkins said timidly.

� It stays. In fact�Five points a piece from the six of you assigned detention, and you Ms. Higgins, are to report down here this evening for your detention. Also you just lost Slytherin house another twenty points. I�ll be getting in contact with your father this afternoon and we�ll just see how well he takes this outburst.�

Amanda Higgins was in tears as she flew from the classroom.

Severus went into his lab to check on Hermione and found her putting the memory into a pocket penseive. � Hermione, I am terribly sorry about how the students behaved during the first half of class. I had no idea that��

� What�s done is done Severus.� Hermione said. � I�ll be alright. She�s a child and doesn�t know how hard I�ve worked to get where I am. I was putting the memory into a penseive so that you could have it on hand for Ms. Higgins father. I swear, I�m fine�My self-confidence has not suffered any blows. I was just about to interrupt when you popped up behind her.�

Severus nodded and looked at her. � That�s what I was worried about�� He whispered in her ear.

Hermione broke out in a fit of giggles and looked up at him. � Severus�I was wondering if you wanted to go to dinner with me this weekend��

Severus rose an eyebrow. � What�s the occasion?�

Hermione smiled shyly. � Nothing�I was just hoping to spend some time with you away from the school is all��

Severus smirked and lifted Hermione�s chin to look into her eyes. �What�s the real reason?�

Hermione took a deep breath and looked into Severus in the eyes. � Maybe I�m hoping for a personal encore?� She leaned close to him and grazed her lips against his.

Severus groaned slightly and felt the witch before him wrap her arms around his neck as their kiss deepened. � Hermione�As tempting as the second portion may be, I�m worried that if we were to be discovered in a compromising position, that you would be dropped from the program��

These words sobered Hermione up just a bit. He was right of course, even if they were discreet, she could very well lose everything she was working toward.

�You�re right Severus�I wasn�t thinking�� she said, interrupting him and with self-loathing highly evident in her tone. Good gods, what was I thinking?! Yes, I would like to have another tumble in the sheets, but everything he said is correct. She thought. � I�m a mite hungry�I�ll see you in the Great Hall�� She pushed passed him only to be pulled back and to sigh when she felt his lips against hers.

� You didn�t let me finish, witch. I was about to suggest that we have dinner here and that you floo back to your chambers in the morning�How does Saturday at seven sound?� Severus replied, trapping the witch against his lean body, his arousal evident against her belly. He smirked sexily as she gasped at the contact and broke away from her.

Hermione smiled at him, her amber eyes like molten topaz now. � I�ll be there Severus..� she said, and with that, she walked out the door, her hips popping with every step.

A/N: YES! I still got it! I'll try to keep them coming about once a week or every two weeks. Lemme know what y'all think!
