A Sudden Attack
Chapter 9 of 10
tobeactingSomeone is surprised. Someone is embarrassed. Someone is attacked.
ReviewedSeverus decided that he would not let a slip of a thing quell him. He ceased the destruction of his office and living quarters, straightened and repaired the remnants of his rage, and decided he was too old to let something as ridiculous as a fight keep him from his normal schedule. He would find the infuriating girl and get this business sorted out. Severus Snape was no coward and refused to become one. He was a man on a mission, and no one dared say a peep as he strode through the halls.
“Ms. Granger, we need to talk.”
...
Hermione found herself in a state of utter shock. Not two hours ago had her bravery turned tail when faced with confronting this man, yet here he was.
“Professor?” She was so surprised as to revert back to the young schoolgirl who was the epitome of proper.
“I will apologize for being so harsh in my dismissal, but I have my reasons for not wanting you in my lab, Hermione. Please understand.” Severus was unaccustomed to begging and found that it left an uncomfortable sensation in his body.
“I realize I could have handled the situation better, but I promise to stay out of your way. I promise I won’t use it very long.”
“Silly girl!”
...
“It’s not that you would get in the way. I just can’t have you there.”
“Why not? If I am doing something, tell me and I will stop.”
“Doubtful.”
“Try me!”
Severus then fixed Hermione with an extremely perplexing stare. Just as she was about to look away, he grabbed her.
“This is why, damn it!”
Hermione found herself in the most passionate and searing kiss she or anyone else had ever experienced. Then it was over.
“I’m sorry.”
Hermione hardly had time to regain coherent thought before her door slammed shut. She collapsed against the desk in a stupor.

Lovely story - I like the moving back and forth between Hermione and Snape.
YES! YES! YES! at last, my God he's hard work, but so worth it.
Well don't just sit there in a stupor girl, don't let him just kiss and run, get after him and snog him into submission ,
Someone needs to lock these two in a room , and let them fight untill they come to their senses, and admit they love eachother.
Hermione, take the compliment as an apologie, it may be as good as you get.
Severus quite the marksman, he never misses ,he always shoots himself in the foot.
Poor Severus, in the hands of yet another well meaning Griffindor.
To right Remus, it was a very low blow. 
Somehow I don't think Hermione's hair is the problem, something else has gotten under Severus' skin.
Ignoring Severus sounds like a good idea, but it's easyer said than done.
Hermione is no better than Severus.
Yes! Courage and persistence pays off in the end.
this was truly deelightful. of course they would both be utterly obtuse.
They were a bit slow, but they figured it out. :)
Well, they got there in the end. It's amazing what silly little arguments can reveal.
Thanks for sharing!
Well, I think that should make things obvious to her now. Wow on the kiss, it says way more than words.
Oh jealousy and self-denial!
Oh silly, oblivious woman! I love that Ginny knows and knows Hermione should, but doesn't. The not so subtle hint still went partially over her head, as her subconscious is trying to reveal it to her. Well done!
Wow, Severus participated and let Hermione know her intelligence wasn't a motivator for his denial.
Ah, to the crux of the matter. At least he's admitting to himself that he likes her.
He he he, "manipulative" Remus sounds quite fun. He see's what Severus and Hermione don't see, doesn't he? (Gah, that sounded quite convoluted, didn't it?)
Ahahah. The letter to Ginny is so realistic! Love plans between girlfriends. I can see myself in that situation ^^
Intriguing start to your story. (Off to read more.)
This is a very nice ending. I'm glad you found it in you to finish this little tale.
Cute, thank you!
