V.

On her next visit, she was ready.

“I refuse to be alone.”

He smirked derisively and hid the expression behind a curtain of greasy, black hair. “Spoken like a truly delusional Gryffindor.”

“I have many people around me! Sometimes, it’s hard to even find time to myself,” she crowed, a little too smugly.

The professor stilled at her triumphant stance, his eyes taking on a faraway, glazed expression. Seeing, but unseeing. “You can be surrounded by countless people and still manage to stand alone, Miss Granger. One is always at their loneliest in the eye of the storm.”

Her face fell, the smug expression slipping off like a pair of trousers too big for her.

She contemplated his words seriously and returned, ever so softly, “Then… perhaps we could be lonely together, sir.”

He frowned.

Yes, Miss Granger, do tempt him. 

It would be a wonderful thing for him to lift his hand and gently touch the tip of her nose.  Now we'll see if he accepts her challenge.

I love this story!  Thank you for this update.

This outing to Regent's Park was an inspired idea.  Well done, Hermione!  As was the kiss she place on his cheek.  And he didn't make a fuss.  YAY!  This day really does sing with new beginnings.

Thank you for this lovely update.
