The Chocolate Frog Cards of Love

It\'s been a few days since I set up the cards in their respective chambers. I had only visited the laboratory since. Things had been going surprisingly well. Severus and Hermione were talking about her potions education. Of course, Severus didn\'t think that her apprenticeship was worth anything, but then again, he didn\'t hold much respect for many potions professors. Especially the one Hermione had chosen to study under.

\"Why him? He wouldn\'t know a fresh ingredient if it jumped out of his cauldron.\"

\"Well Severus, he was the only person that would accept me. After all, what type of future did a Muggleborn have? I had to go with what I could get.\"

He shook his head. \"Such a waste. Someone of your intelligence should have studied with the greatest Master in the world, not some unknown pervert.\"

She frowned as she stirred her potion. \"He wasn\'t a pervert. At least, he never tried anything on me.\" She shook her head. \"Then again, who would?

Severus raised an eyebrow. \"Self deprecation? I wouldn\'t have expected it. Still, you should have had a better teacher than that.\"

She sighed loudly. \"I\'m sorry that my choice didn\'t live up to your expectations but the best Potions Master I knew was to busy to teach me.\"

He looked at her. \"To busy? I find it hard to believe that someone would be to busy to help a student such as yourself.\"

She whirled around and looked at him. \"Have you forgotten, Professor, that you were fighting a war? That you were being a double agent? I wanted to be your Apprentice, but you were to busy.\"

I\'ve never seen the boy look so stunned. She turned back to her mixture, her face red with embarrassment. Severus gaped at her back, his mouth opening and closing wordlessly.

Finally, she broke the silence. \"I\'m finished for tonight. I\'ve placed every thing in a stasis charm. I\'ll finish what I can another day.\" She gathered her things without looking at Severus. \"Thank you for the use of your lab. Have a good evening.\"

He and I watched her go. As soon as the door was closed, he sat down. \"Well, damn.\"

I left him in shock and headed up to the card in Hermione\'s living room. I watched her enter and throw her robe and bag into a chair near the door. \"Shit, shit, shit! That was the stupidest thing you could have done. Now, he\'s going to make fun of you. Use that respect you have for him against you. Stupid, stupid, stupid!\"

She grabbed a glass of something from the side table and sat down heavily in front of the fire. \"It doesn\'t help that I get so....randy when I\'m around him. That voice, those eyes. Now he knows that I wanted him to teach me. I\'ll never hear the end of it!\"

I watched her as she sat, starting into the fire. She kicked off her shoes and socks. The glass was soon empty and sitting on the chair side table. I didn\'t mean to stay that long, but she looked so upset I didn\'t want to leave her in such a state.

What happened next shocked me. The cards are spelled to keep me out if she is undressed, but the spell does nothing if the person chooses to undress while you are in the frame.

Her hand started skimming along her stomach, then higher till she was caressing her breasts. Holy Merlin, she was a beautiful woman. I watched for a few moments, after all, I am a human male, then vacated the frame when her hands dropped below her waistline. As I was leaving, I heard her moan, \"Severus.\"

I took a few moments to recollect myself. That was, very interesting to say the least. Maybe I would contact Minerva tonight. I shook myself from those thoughts and went to check on Severus.

I found him in front of the fire, breathing heavily. It didn\'t take a genius to figure out what had transpired here. Really, it was silly. The two of them wanting each other so much that they...um...relieved themselves with visions and thoughts of the other. Wouldn\'t it be easier if they just shagged?
