Goodnight, Severus
Just bucking a minor SS/HG pattern I see in a tiny amount of fics. This is dark and sad- I wanted to upload it today, so sorry if there are any mistakes!
ETA: Sorry! I don\'t own Sevvie, \'Mione, or anything else in the Potterverse.
Goodnight, Severus
As she descended the cold stone spiral stairway to the dungeon, Hermione thought not of the impending atrocity she was going to commit. She loosened her Gryffindor tie and absentmindefingfingered her wand. She concentrated on the feeling of her bare feet slapping against the slimy gray stones. She approached the room slowly, taking one last deep breath to steel herself for the task at hand.
And there he was. Severus, her Severus. Voldemort and his followers knew not of the connection between them, of the hurried trysts late at night in the Potions classroom. Had they known, she would be as marked as he, and Dumbledore would be left in the dark as to what the Death Eaters had planned. She knew that the sacrifice was for the good of many, and the loss of her love would save the lives of many others. She knew, but it didn\'t lessen her pain even remotely.
Hermione sharply drew a breath as she laid eyes on her lover. He was broken and bruised, clinging to life. He seemed barely conscious, arms bound akimbo on either side as he hung limply against the dungeon wall. Voldemort had equipped his dungeon for precisely this kind of scenario, Hermione noted, as she winced at some of the more brutal looking implements. She turned around and silently locked and warded the door. \"Relashio,\" she murmured, and he fell roughly to the floor. She dropped her cloak and ran to his side.
His wrists were bloodied where the ties had cut into his skin. His dark mark burned blacker than ever, and some of the edges were scabbed. \"Oh, Severus...\" she whispered, pulling his head intr lar lap. Brushing a long, matted lock of shiny hair out of his eyes, she noted in horror that a large clump was missing. His scalp was crusted with dried blood. \"What have they done to you?\"
\"Hermione...\" he rasped, weakly reaching up to touch her face. She stroked his cheek, gently, and leaned down to place a soft, chaste kiss on his forehead.
\"Shhhh...\" she whispered, her hot, salty tears dripping onto his face and hair. She drew two small vials from her pocket and tipped them into his mouth. Severus sighed, and she noted the change immediately. \"A strong painkiller and some pepper-up potion,\" she said, pre-empting his question. \"I only have a minute, they\'ll be suspicious if I take too long. You know why I\'m here, don\'t you?\"
\"Yes, darling. And I forgive you.\" Hermione fell to her knees, sobbing in earnest now as he moved to comfort her. \"Shh... love, don\'t cry, it\'s okay. We\'ve prepared for this, we knew this day was inevitable. I don\'t blame you. It\'s for the good of the Order. And I\'ll never leave you, I\'ll always be here, Hermione. I have one last wish, though,\" he said, cradling her.
She spoke, barely audible through her sobs. \"Anything.\"
\"Make love to me, one last time.\" Without another word, Hermione embraced him and kissed him deeply. He gently guided her onto the cold, stone floor. He knew their time was brief, and he intended to make the best of it. Severus ripped her panties off with one hand, while guiding into her with his free one. She bit her lip as he entered her, then sighed loudly.
\"Oh, Severus,\" she whispered into his ear, \"I love you. I love you so much.\" She wrapped her legs tightly around his waist, eliciting a loud moan. He increased the intensity of his thrusts, gazing lovingly at her as she stared back intently.
\"I love you, too, Hermione,\" he said, pounding at her as she moved up against him, imprinting the moment in her brain forever. He emptied himself into her, panting, as she kissed him. She nibbled at his lower lip. \"You\'ve got to get going,\" he admonished gently.
\"They will suffer for this,\" she whispered, drawing her wand. \"I will avenge you if it\'s the last thing I ever do.\" She pointed the wand at his heart. \"Avada... Avada...\" She tried to summon every drop of hatred she felt for them, for Malfoy, Riddle, all the masked cowards she mingled wi \"A \"Avada Kedavra!\"
A weak jet of pale, green light shot from the wand, dying out before it reached him. \"I can\'t, I can\'t do this!\"
\"You must, Hermione, you\'re the only hope for the order right now!\" he glared at her, sternly.
\"I have a Plan B- I\'m so sorry, Severus.\"
\"Hermione, you have to do this right now. They\'ll be here any minute!\"
\"Accio gun.\" She clasped her fingers tighly onto the cold metal and met his gaze through her tears.
\"What is that?\" he asked, as she placed the barrel up against his heart.
\"Goodnight, Severus,\" she murmured, pulling the trigger. He staggered backwards, and fell, dead, onto the cold stones. Without a word, she composed herself and walked upstairs to report to the Dark Lord on her first murder.
