Line Between Nightmare and Dream

The next day Phan got to work early and placed a long box on the edge of her desk. She had spent the night going through Hermione’s file trying to pick out anything she might have missed.

“Professor Phan?” Hermione asked in a small voice

“Oh dear! I didn’t hear you come in. Sit down” Phan pointed to the usual chair and Hermione sat softly

“You look…better today” Phan lied. In truth Hermione still looked terrible. Her eyes were still puffy and her hair was a mess

Hermione just nodded and looked at her feet

“Hermione I had hoped we could work through this without it taking a turn for the worst. I have tried going through every dream you ever had to find a link to something but I can’t seem to find one. I’m afraid we only have one course of action” Phan walked around to the front of her desk and placed a hand on the box sitting there.

“In this box is a scarf charmed as a sort of port key. It will take you to the place you need to be the most.” Phan opened the box and showed Hermione a glittering purple scarf

Hermione reached to touch the scarf but Phan pulled it away

“Think about it first. I have no clue where this will take you or when” Phan looked slightly worried

“When? It may take me back in time?” Hermione asked

“Yes or forward, but I wouldn’t bring this out if I didn’t think it was necessary” Phan reassured

Hermione thought on it. She thought about the worst place the scarf could take her. Could she go back to that time? Would it be worse to face that or live the rest of her life with these dreams?

Hermione reached out and grabbed the scarf. Her arm pulled hard on the rest of her body, and she suddenly felt like she was being pulled through a long corridor. Then she saw colors begin to swirl up ahead and her feet hit a floor.

She had to stand and wait for the room to settle, but when it did she felt sick. There in front of her was Lucius sitting with his head down, at a desk full of day old plates of food. She looked around for any sign of the date. Everything looked timeless but she caught a glimpse of a calendar on the desk.

Hermione let out a sigh of relief; she was still in the present. Lucius looked up to see who had made the noise.

“Ms. Granger!” he stood up so quickly his chair fell over backwards

Hermione’s mouth was suddenly dry; all she could do was stand there and stare

“I didn’t think you would come” Lucius continued

“I wasn’t going to come. I was…brought here” Hermione looked down at the scarf

“Well I’m glad you’re here” He walked around to the front of his desk “I’m so sorry about the other night. Samantha was completely out of line”

“I would have been upset too if another woman showed up to my date before me” Hermione replied. The butterflies in her stomach were going crazy

“She’s no longer welcome here, I made her leave right after you did” Lucius explained.

He thought she looked amazing. He laughed that her hair was just as free spirited as she was but he could see she had been crying.

“That’s a beautiful scarf” Lucius said trying to break the ice. “Is it cashmere?” he reached out to touch the scarf.

“No!....It’s a port key. It’s what brought me here” Hermione didn’t want to explain too much

“I don’t remember authorizing a port key into my office” Lucius said

“It…um…takes a person to the place they need to be the most” Hermione was embarrassed to admit she needed to be here

“Interesting” Lucius reached out again this time taking an edge of the scarf in his hand

Hermione flinched and dropped the scarf expecting Lucius to be pulled from the room, but nothing happened. Lucius stood in front of her with a slight smirk on his face and a glow behind his eyes that made her heart flutter.

“I…I…uh guess it only works for certain people” Hermione was getting extremely embarrassed. She didn’t want him to think she was a liar.

“Or maybe this is exactly where I’m supposed to be” Lucius said in his usual velvety tone

Hermione’s legs buckled under her. Lucius quickly caught her and Hermione found herself in Lucius’ arms, the man she had been fantasizing about for months was inches from her. She had no control left.

She pulled herself up and pushed her lips against his. After all the dreams this was all she could imagine. He held her close and she felt his warmth surround her.

Then the passion took a step up. Lucius lifted her off her feet and placed her on his desk. She spread her knees apart so he could stand as close as possible. He put one hand behind her head and the other on her thigh.

They spent a few more moments in the fit of passion. Hermione was lost in his grip and wasn’t going to let reason interfere with this moment. She wanted this more than any other encounter with any other man in her life. She moved her hands to Lucius’ chest and unfastened his cloak. It fell from his shoulders and she began working on his shirt.

His chest was perfect and she traced the dips and curves with her fingers, but that wasn’t enough. She reluctantly pulled her lips away from Lucius’ and tasted his neck. His musk filled her nose and she began nibbling his ear.

“Hermione are you sure?” Lucius asked

“Yes” Hermione replied

She let her tongue follow her fingers and she made a trail to the waist of his pants. When she was on her knees in front of him she looked up at him.

“Are you sure?” she teased

“I’m only as sure as you are” Lucius replied

Hermione un buttoned his pants and pulled them down to his ankles. She laughed to see he wore muggle brand boxers. She looped her fingers over the waist band and slowly revealed his erect penis.

She licked her lips and placed her hand at its base. She slid it into her mouth and felt it pulse at the warmth. She shifted her weight more evenly on her knees and licked the head of his penis in small circles. She slid the full length of his shaft into her mouth and heard him pull in a quick breath. She used his breathing and the occasional moan to guide her. He reacted the most when she used a little suction while pulling back.

“Ok” Lucius said breathlessly “I don’t want you to bruise your knees”

Hermione stood back up, feeling the blood flow back into her feet. She hadn’t even noticed they were falling asleep. She wobbled a little and Lucius caught her again.

He let his lips fall on hers and he leaned to let her sit on his desk. He whispered something and Hermione felt the cold Brazilian rosewood against the naked skin of her butt. Lucius had a telling smirk on his face.

“Magic makes everything easier…..and faster” He added the last as he slipped his middle finger into her wet pussy.
He rubbed her clit with his thumb and slowly massaged her g-stop with his finger. Hermione let her head roll back into his other hand and he kissed her exposed neck.

The things she had heard about him as a lover didn’t do him justice. He began to lower himself but she stopped him

“No I want you now” Hermione moaned

“You’re sure” Lucius checked

Hermione looked him in the eyes, “I have been dreaming about this for too long” she whispered

Lucius kissed her tenderly and moved so they touched from shoulder to shoulder, neck to waist. He slide inside her and she realized she was actually not ready for him. Her back arched and her head fell backwards.

“Okay?” Lucius asked

“Yes” Hermione lifted her head to look into his eyes

He pulled back a bit and then inched back inside her. She relaxed to let herself shape around him. She tried to quickly count the months since the last time she had sex but his breathing kept her from concentrating. So she decided to give in and listen to him.

He was so even and meticulous with his breath it made the moment feel so real. Then it hit her, this was real, she was here…with him. She opened her eyes just to make sure and found him staring back at her.

She wrapped her arms around him, and then pulled him in tight driving him deeper inside. He pushed her flat on the desk shoving platters of food out of the way. He put one knee on the desk and found a rhythm in and out of her. She never closed her eyes. She wanted to see every second of this… live and in person.

His cadence got faster and faster and the strokes got longer. He moved his right hand to massage her clit. His breath lost its evenness and she could feel it in hot bursts on her neck. Her body quickly heated and she found his lips to kiss him as she felt the orgasm overpower her.

He could feel her muscles fluidly contracting. He tried to ride it out but he was so snug inside of her he could feel every twitch. She bit down hard on his lower lip and he lost control. He pulled out as fast as he could and used his thumb to slowly bring her down from her orgasm.

He lay there on top of her listening to her heart rate slow for a lifetime. His breath regained its symmetry and he lifted his head to look at her.

“Why did you pull out?” She asked still breathless

“I think a child would only complicate our situation” He replied softly

They both smiled. Hermione had completely forgotten there was even a ‘situation’ to think about. She felt so fulfilled and content. But she agreed with him.

He pulled her upright and said a few cleaning charms before he bent down to refasten his pants.

“You didn’t send mine to Russia did you?” Hermione teased

“No they are folded on the chair” He pointed to a chair on the exact opposite side of the room.

By making her walk over to get them she knew he was hoping for one last show. She gave him a sinister smile then summoned them to her.

“Wandless magic! I wasn’t that good at it till I was well into my 30’s” Lucius said impressed

“I have always been advanced for my age” Hermione smiled as she dressed herself

“I noticed” Lucius put both hands on the small of her back and kissed her forehead

Hermione let her cheek touch his still bare chest

“Why did you say you hade been ‘dreaming about this for too long’?” Lucius asked still holding her tight, so he felt very clearly when she tensed up “Hermione I know you came here to talk to me, and it was selfish of me to let you get sidetracked. Please tell me”

There was a smile on his face but his eyes held nothing but concern.

“I have been having dreams about you…very erotic dreams. I’ve been trying to figure them out but no one seems to know the cause” Hermione explained

“No one?” Lucius asked

“I have been talking with a psychology professor at my university. She is the one who gave me the scarf” Hermione answered

“Ah…well I can see where that would worry you” Lucius lifted her chin to kiss her “I have a confession to make; I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you either. When Draco began seeing you regularly I began thinking you might forgive me too. Then after our encounter in my library I let my thoughts run away with me and I envisioned us as lovers. Unfortunately for me that thought has just about consumed me. That little blue number in town did nothing to help either” Lucius laughed and kissed Hermione again

Hermione couldn’t believe how relieved she was to hear this. She would have thought him having feelings for her would make things worse and far more weird but something in her felt so comforted she didn’t make any attempt to sort it out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well this was sort of an important chapter so I have been worried about putting it up in case I left something out. But I really need to get to bed so here it is.

Snapes_Goddess~ I’m glad I’m updating more too. It really clears my head to do something creative instead of lab reports all day. Thanks for reading!!

Meankitty69~ SOOO sorry, but I would say Lucius sufficiently “stuck it up and went to her” in this chapter (lol sorry long night)
