Secrets We Keep/End

A sudden rap upon the chamber door awoke me. I stirred against Professor Snape's body, seeking his warth. The knocking continued and I wondered what the time was, exactly. "Ruddy hell...Just a moment!" Snape shouted, as he threw on his discarded dark robes. I snuggled down farther into the bed, pulling the blanket up over my head as I did so.

I heard the door open and peered out from beneath the sheet and coverlet. Professor Snape had cracked the door a small ways and I caught sight of Hermione's coppery-brown waves. She was attempting to peek into his room beyond his shoulder. I ducked back beneath the covers, not wanting to be seen.

"Miss Granger," I heard Snape said in clipped, even tones, "What, exactly, brings you here at this hour?"

"Please, sir..." I heard Hermione begin and she went on to mention how I had stormed off in the middle of the night, "And...and she hasn't come back. I'm terribly worried for her, sir..."

"And you thought she'd be hiding here, is that it?" he asked, and I could hear the sneer in his words, "Shimmied up the chimney, is that it?"

"Um, no, sir, I just..." she paused, and I knew she was trying to see past him. I held still, my heart pounding. I knew we could never be discovered. Never.

"Just...what?" he asked, "Miss Granger."

"Just...if you see her...tell her I'm really..." I held my breath, waiting for her next words, "Worried."

A few moments later the door clicked shut and I uncovered myself. I sat up, the sheets wrapped about me, hiding my nakedness. "Come back to bed...." I suggested, "It's still night..."

"We can't do this," he said, standing near the bed and watching me with those dark, dark eyes. Eyes that held so much mystery, so much pain. Eyes I that I knew I had all ready begun to drown within, "Granger is a very clever girl. It won't be long before she realizes what is going on. We need to..."

I crawled across the bed, heedless of my exposure as the sheets fell away, and took his hand, tugging him near, "...Be careful." I finished, as I pulled him down upon me, wrapping my arms about his neck as I brought my face upwards to meet his mouth with my own. I whispered in his ear once our kiss was broken, "I don't know how further we'll gone on....but, I've been a fool for lesser things..."

"Have you now?" he said, kissing the side of my neck, I moaned softly as we came together once more, "No one must know..." he whispered huskily, at which I replied, his body moving in time with my own, "No one..."
