AN: Thanks to all the great replies (nudge nudge) but in all honesty
thank you Kichou you are my first review. So I promised a longer
chapter lets see how I do, usually I shoot for a 1000 words per a
chapter, so wish me luck!
- Means change of perspective, this story will not be written in
first person, I can\'t stand first person, sorry pet peeve.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or anybody else from the potter
universe; I merely twisted them to fit my evil schemes. Harry Potter
belongs the amazing J.K. Rowling.

Chapter 2
How long Hermione sat crying by lake she would never know, minutes or
hours, it didn\'t make any difference to her. Deciding that she had
better things to do then sulk down by the lake, Hermione picked herself
up and slowly flicked the pieces of dirt and grass off her uniform
that had decided they wanted to cling to her.
Turning around to head up to the castle, Hermione suppressed a scream
when she realized she had company and it was Professor Snape of all
people.
Quickly trying to calm her racing heart, Hermione slowly took in the
intimidating presence that her Professor presented.
Professor Snape would never be considered handsome, his hair was too
greasy, his nose too big his teeth a bit too yellow. But he did have
most alluring intelligent dark eyes; Hermione could never tell if they
were brown or black, maybe a mix of the two. He towered over her, but
of course that wasn\'t hard to do, she was the third shortest female of
her year. His body was well hid beneath his teacher robes, but if she
had to hazard a guess she\'d say he was probably medium build with a
well-toned body, lugging cauldrons all day had that sort of effect on
people. Hermione herself had developed a little bit of muscle carrying
her cauldron all over the castle.
\"Good afternoon Professor Snape\" she said trying to cover up the fact
that she had just assessed her teacher’s physical attributes. Hermione
was painfully aware of her red eyes and disheveled appearance. Feeling
uncomfortable under his penetrating gaze, Hermione unconsciously ran a
hand through her hair trying to look presentable.
\"Miss Granger, would you care to inform me what you are doing outside
this time of night when you know of the dangers during this time.\" He
questioned.
Mouth open in shock Hermione quickly tried to formulate a response to
his question. And she did know of the dangers that was the problem,
she had been aware of them ever since the Dark Lord came back in her
5th year all the students had been told of the dangerous times they
faced.
But with her thoughts focused on Ron betrayal she hadn\'t even
considered the dangers. The Dark Lords minions were all over the
country; all looking for ways to please their lord and bring to him
the best friend of Harry Potter would be just the thing.
Not able to come up with an answer that would satisfy Snape, Hermione
remained quiet.
-
\"That will be 20 points from Gryffindor for being careless\" Professor
Snape had been surprised when he had seen a stray figure down by the
lake so late at night. Most of the student would be in the library
trying to remember what ever they could before tomorrow’s exams.
When he had reached the lake he knew exactly who it was, Hermione
Granger. Surely she could see how dangerous it was to be outside
alone, but then again she did seem to have a misplaced sense of
bravery.
\"And a detention tomorrow night\" he added snidely. It was obvious to
him that something must happened to the girl that would force her away
from the library, he was sure if it were allowed she would set up
permanent residence there.
Taking in her disheveled appearance and red eyes he could only guess
what it was that could make her so thoughtless as for her own safety.
And in all honesty he did not care one wit about why she had obviously
been crying (mentally shushing the inner voice that called him a
liar); as far as he was concerned it was only in his contract to keep
them safe not to act as the human tissue.
He didn\'t like sounding so cruel even if it was only in his head, but
he really had no idea how to comfort a woman and that\'s exactly what
Miss Granger was … a woman. Of course he would never admit to anyone
that he had been having wholly inappropriate thoughts about the Head
Girl. He\'d been having these thoughts ever since she had returned from
summer vacation. She was 18 or 19 if you counted her time with a time
turner, so perfectly legal in both muggle and magical communities. Of
course teachers and students were not encouraged to develop
relationships beyond that of teacher-student, but neither was
penalized. Mentally shaking his head to rid himself of how far he\'d
gone in thinking about pursuing a relationship with Miss Granger, he
instead focused in on their current situation. She was be graduating
in a week, so there would be time later to purse his former train of
thought.
\"Miss Granger do I need to escort you to your common room or do you
think can you find it on your own\" he asked patronizingly.
-
Looking embarrassed Hermione shook her head and started to leave
understanding the dismissive tone in his voice, having heard a lot of
it in the last 7 years. Moving around him as to pass him Hermione made
her way to the castle, she was stopped not even three later when she
felt a hand grab her shoulder\"don\'t forget your detention tomorrow
night …8pm\" Professor Snape added with an odd look in his eye.
Nodding her head Hermione continued on her path towards the castle and going as slowly as possible, not particularly looking forward to the confrontation about to take place in the Gryffindor common room where she would more then likely encounter Ron and Lavender.

So how was that? Not exactly a cliffhanger, but leaving enough of an incentive to continue reading, pleases rr.
