chapter 8: Ralph Lauren? Who the hell is that?

Chapter 8. Ralph Lauren? Who the hell is that?

“I’ll take you to the market and some dress shops. You need clothing for this kind of weather. The temperatures doesn’t drop under 25 degrees Celsius all year-round in this region.” Hermione said after she’d paid and motioned him to the next street. Snape frowned at this piece of information.


“Not below 20 degrees? Merlin, I hope I won’t melt. I’m not used to that kind of temps.” He got a bit nervous. Last time he was outside with the tempera ove over 25 degrees he fainted. That’s why he always stayed inside during school-breaks after April. “I don’t know if I can stay, Miss Granger.” Hermione looked up, slightly disappointed.


“You won’t melt, professor. I highly doubt you will even faint.” Snape gave a strange gasp, which made Hermione aware of what he meant. “Hold on…” she said and grinned. “That’s why you always stay inside the castle whenever it’s getting hot, isn’t it?” she almost stumbled to the floor in laughter. Snape didn’t think it was very funny and slapped her shoulder. “S-sor-ry.” She giggled, trying to suppress the next outburst.


“Not funny, Miss Granger, but yes, if you must know.” He looked hurt and embarrassed at the same time. Hermione saw it and stopped laughing instantly.


“Professor, I’m sorry. But… fainting is nothing to be embarrassed about.” She placed a hand on Snape’s arm and caressed it. Snape flinched at first but didn’t pull away. “I once fainted too, twice actually.”


“But not with something stupid like the weather!” he snorted.


“No, not because of the weather. Something even more stupid.” She said and went quiet. Snape turned to her and raised a questioning eyebrow.


“Tell me.” He said like the teacher and started smirking as if he already knew it couldn’t be worse than his case. He put a hand on her shoulder. “Tell me, Miss Granger.” Now he sounded sincere and Hermione felt her legs going weak. She sighed and starter str story.


“The first time I fainted was when I looked into the mirror after drinking the Polyjuice Potion. I was a huge catlike thing with human features.”


“I can understand that, but that isn’t something to be embarrassed about. Well, you should be considering the fact you should have known about animal hairs in the potion.What was the second reason you fainted?” Snape asked, squeezing her shoulder gently. He didn’t feel like laughing as he saw Hermione’s face stiffen.


“The second time I fainted was when I caught Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall having a quick shag in the Prefect’s bathroom. I know it sounds very stupid, but they are so…” Snape looked disgusted by even the thought of Albus and Minerva having a shag or any kind of sexual intimacy.


“Old?” Snape could hardly say it. “How disgusting. No wonder you fainted.” They both shook the scary thought and image from their imaginations and looked at each other. Both of them dropped to the ground in laughter. Tears rolled off their cheeks and Snaped felt better by the minute. He didn’t understand why the girl brought the best out of him. After the fit of laughter was over they stood again. Now, Snape was the who who had difficulties controlling his emotions, feeling them growing rapidly for the girl. The serious professor came back to life, but with a bit of the newly discovered Snape still inside him. “You where telling me where the market was, remember?” he said quickly. Hermione regretted this moment. ‘He was just about to loosen up, what is it with that man…’


“Oh, right. This way.” She said with a small smile and let go of his arm. They rounded a few corners and walked straight to the stalls.

“What do we need?” Snape asked Hermione as they passed the first stall.


“We need vegetables that my dad didn’t plant, soap, toothpaste with two toothbrushes, uhmm, milk and stuff, and… clothing for you.” Hermione replied, stopping at the stall with vegetables.


“Soap? I used the soap this morning, what’s wrong with the soap?” a slight sarcastic tone in his voice caused Hermione to glare at him. He shrugged his shoulders in question and looked at her. “What is wrong with the soap?”


“Nothing is wrong with it, if you like baby soap. I just thought you would like a more masculine scent for yourself.” Hermione looked at the man behind the stall. She smiled at him and told the man they hadn’t decided yet.

“Women!” he said under his breath and was treated with a deathglare.

“I heard that!”

This was chapter 8. I hope you liked it.
I won\'t update any other chapters of Paradise or any other fic for a while.
My dog is very sick and I want to be with him as long as he is here.
I hope you\'ll understand. In the meantime I\'m writing on paper to do something useful if I have to \'babysit\' Scooby. If\'ve just finished Ladies Night part 2 today on paper and part 3 will be written in the train to Amsterdam this Saturday. You could read my other fics in the meantime of course.
Yours truly, Maddy
