I Learned the Truth at Seventeen

It was clear to say Hermione Granger was addicted to Severus Snape; now if she would have said that two months earlier she would have been taken to St. Mungo's and sectioned under the mental health Act she was sure of that. He had only left for a few hours and already she craved him, she needed him near it seemed.

Severus hated to admit, he too was addicted to Hermione. He had only been at Hogwarts for two hours and he felt like they had been apart for years.

Severus sat down behind his desk and watched the potions brew to completion. He looked around his huge dark wooden desk a noticed a photo frame with a picture of Hermione and himself in. He picked it up and looked at the photo.

The picture was taken in the Library at number 12; someone must have been spying on them to get that photo of such intimacy. Severus was stood to full height with Hermione snuggled into his side looking up at his with a huge smile on her face. It captured them perfectly he had to admit.

He placed the photo frame down and leaned back on his chair. The War was becoming more serious by the day and he hadn't been called in days which meant something was bound to happen soon.

He hated the thought of Hermione being involved but she was too headstrong to agree to sitting out and staying and helping the wounded. She wasn't some submissive, she was a dominant woman, someone who wanted to fight for her right. In a way he was proud of her but in some way he wished she would just listen to him.

The War would change many things. People will die; it's War, that's what happens. He doubted he would survive. When the Dark Lord finds out that he is a spy for Albus Dumbledore he was sure he would be killed right there and then.

If he was killed, Hermione would be in danger of dying herself. He needed to find a way of breaking the connection. If it meant Hermione surviving the War then breaking the connection safely then it had to be done.

He knew if he went to Hermione and told her he was breaking the bond she would be devastated. He knew that. However keeping her safe and alive was his number one priority.

Severus stood up and walked into his office and opened the draw to his private desk and picked out a small black box.

He opened the box slowly and started at the inside.

Maybe He thought.

Hermione woke the boys and sent them on their way; they were useless, wouldn't help her only hider her.

She packed all the books away and just as she was about to leave she was pulled back into someone's arms.

'Miss me?' the deep voice said.

'Of course.' She said turning in her love's arms. 'Did you get a lot done?'

'I did.' He said leaning down and kissing Hermione.

Hermione wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled herself up on tip toes. She pressed her lips onto his deepening the kiss. God she had missed him.

Severus pulled her to him and felt her breasts pressed against his chest, he moaned at the thought of her naked breasts in his hands. He lifted Hermione up in his arms and she wrapped her lovely long legs around his waist.

She could feel his erection through his trousers and she wiggled her hips making him moan. Severus dropped himself and Hermione onto the sofa never taking his lips away from Hermione's.

Hermione pulled back from Severus and started undoing the buttons of his robe. His hands stalled hers.

'Not here.' He said.

'Defiantly here.' She said as she kissed him again distracting him from her hands undoing his robe.

When his robe was undone she started on his shirt buttons, she needed to feel his skin. She needed to touch him.

Severus pulled off Hermione's cardigan and smirked at her as she threw it across the room in haste. He grabbed the bottom of her tank top and pulled it over her head leaving her in only a bright red bra which accentuated her double DD breasts.

Hermione kissed Severus and leaned into his now bare chest. Severus's arms came around her back and started to undo her bra.

'Hermione...did I leave my...ahhhhhh Fuck!' harry shouted

Hermione screamed with shock and horror while Severus pushed her against his chest and covered her with his robe.

Harry put a hand over his eyes and backed out the door mumbling. 'Sorry...should have knocked...I'm just gonna go.' And he ran.

Hermione hid her face in Severus's chest. 'Oh my god, I am never going to be able to look at Harry again.'

Severus said nothing and then he chuckled.

Hermione looked up shocked at her nearly lovely. 'What are you laughing about he could have seen something much worst!'

'Would have been better if he did well except from you naked.' He said smirking.

'That's horrible! He's my friend. He'll never be able to look at me again.' Hermione said standing up off Severus and picking up her tank top and pulling it on.

Severus buttoned up his shirt and smirked. 'It was your idea my darling.'

'Next time I have an idea like this make sure you stop me before that happens again.' She said.

'Hermione...Ummm, is my wand in there?' Harry shouted from the outside while knocking on the door.

'No it's not Harry and it's safe to come in.' she shouted back.

'I'd rather not.' He said which made Severus laugh again.

It's not funny!
