The most important person
Pain shot through Hermione every now and then, as she and Severus walked into his office to floo home. He lit the fire and threw the powder in.
Severus took her hand and together they walked into the flames. Hermione said her address and they were off.
Back in her living room, Severus and Hermione sat down on the sofa. He put his arms around Hermione and she melted into him, to tired to try and fight.
But should she fight any more? When she knew she loved him, should she let him go? Would it be selfish to try and keep him?
He may seem snarky, but when you actually listen to the words, they could be very witty and funny. He may seem like a royal prick at times, but considering what a man had done to her today, he was one of the only good men left, in Hermiones mind.
She could do a lot worse. Severus was brave and loyal; he had proved that in his work for the Order. He was clever and quite fit in a special way.
She could definitely do a lot worse. However, this was assuming that he felt the same way. Not very likely, for Severus, she was probably his hero and he then he would get back to Hogwarts and forget her.
Hermione sighed; she was in a royal mess.

Severus felt Hermiones breathing even out. He looked down and, sure enough, she was asleep. Severus could feel a warm pulse spreading through his chest as he gazed down on her slumbering form.
She was so beautiful, just lying in his arms. He was enjoying the calmness her presence bought to him; Severus could get used to her being around, not that he hadn\'t already.
If she had died today, he didn\'t want to think about what his life would be like, that’s assuming that he let his life go on and didn\'t commit suicide.
Severus let out a long breath. How had she become such a part of his life that he would consider suicide over life without her? He felt so... soppy! But wasn\'t love meant to make you feel that way? He didn\'t know, but seeing as he had never been in love and never felt soppy, and they come along at the same time, it was logical that they were connected, right?
What had this crazy witch done to him? Well, I didn\'t matter now; she had sucked him in, whether she wanted him or not.
But what if she didn\'t want him? What if she thought it was just a quick fuck that he wanted? Or that he was still out of sorts after being let out of prison?
No, she had to want him. But if she didn\'t, she was in a sticky situation. Because of being a spy, Severus had never really had what he wanted. Because of being a Death Eater, he had to share every thing with his so called \'brothers\'. But now he was free and there was no Voldemort to hold him back. He was at last allowed to have some thing of his own.
And if he wanted something, he would not be denied. He wanted Hermione for his own and as far as he was concerned, he was going to have her.
If she didn\'t want him now, she would when he was finished with her.

A few hours later, Hermione awoke, but did not open her eyes. She could feel a large, rough hand resting on her stomach, a long finger tracing the skin where she had been stabbed. The movements were gentle and Hermione waited for a few moments longer before she opened her eyes.
Blearily, Hermione looked down at Severus; he didn\'t seem to know she was awake. She watched as he stared at the faint line that her attack gave her. If you didn\'t know it was there, you wouldn\'t see it.
He traced as if in a trance; back and forth, back and forth, over and over. She didn\'t know what he was thinking, and wasn\'t sure if she really wanted to.
Carefully, she placed one of her hand over his to still his movements. A bit startled, Severus looked up at her.
\"It was starting to hypnotize me.\" She smiled as she sat up.
\"Indeed.\" Was all he said as he moved next to her.
Hermione pulled her new T-shirt up to just under her breasts. Severus must have changed it, she concluded. She looked down at the almost invisible scar.
\"I bet one of those potions you gave me made it so light,\" Hermione glance up at him quickly. He shrugged.
\"It was the least I could do.\"
\"No,\" She lowered the top and looked up at him, \"The least you could have done was get me to Hogwarts so that Madam Pomfrey could have treated me. You did a lot more and for that I am so grateful.\"
\"You needn\'t be grateful; you did the same for me. Being in Azkaban was like being dead; I was returning the favor... in a way.\" He said as he rested his arm on the back of the sofa behind her.
\"Oh,\" Hermione joked, \"So you didn\'t just keep me alive because I provide you with a home, a job, a friend and your sanity?\"
Severus just rolled his eyes and gave an amused smirk. Hermione sighed and rested back against his arm. He curled his arm around her, pulling her closer to him.
\"Thank you, again. I don\'t think I’ll ever be able to tell you that enough.\" Hermione said wistfully.
\"Do you really think I could have just left you with Poppy?\" He asked.
\"Well... yes,\" Hermione said honestly.
\"Silly girl,\" He said gently, \"Would you leave the most important person in you life to die whilst being examined, when you knew what was wrong and how to help them?\"
\"I hardly think that I qualify for the most important person in your life.\" Hermione said looking up at him.
\"I beg to differ,\" He countered, \"You won my appeal, have given me a place to stay and a job, you have stuck with me to the point of getting stabbed. Not to mention taking my anger and temper quiet well and, I can safely say that you have given me a little more than friendship.\"
Hermione wasn\'t sure how to react to this, so she kept quiet. Severus carried on.
\"My whole world revolves around you. My home, job and social life. If you had died, I would have nothing.\"
\"Ahhh,\" Hermione smiled, \"So really, it was a totally selfish act.\"
\"Yes,\" He smirked, \"if you look at it that way.\"
\"Is there any other way to look at it?\" Hermione asked.
\"Yes,\" He said slowly as he turned her in his arms and pulled her close.

Severus gazed upon her expectant face and then lowered his lips to hers. Gently, he pried her mouth open and dipped in. Severus sucked on her tongue as she moved her mouth against his.
He pulled her closer, kissing her soundly. Their tongues dance for what seemed like hours of bliss, until Hermione pulled away, gasping for air.
\"The other way of looking at it,\" He panted, \"though still selfish to an extent, is that I was trying to keep alive the only person, or living thing for that matter, that I would willingly and quietly go back to Azkaban for.\"
Severus took her hand and together they walked into the flames. Hermione said her address and they were off.
Back in her living room, Severus and Hermione sat down on the sofa. He put his arms around Hermione and she melted into him, to tired to try and fight.
