Wow good chapter, Ron can be an ass. I ne ver ever liked the thought of he and Hermione together.

Really like the growing slow
'friendship'. Really your doing a great job here.

Nice scene at the end.

Maybe Ron's not so dense after all lol

I love this story, but I'm not into the D/H.  How much more of it are we going to have to read?  I appreciated the moments between Severus and Hermione, but the picnic put me off a little.  I hope something happens soon.  Perhaps Severus's grandma will help him see "the light".  Or Luna seems to know what's going on, maybe she'll help Hermione.

Hmm, I have to ask - is this going to go on, the Draco/Hermione part? I have no wish at all to read that particular pairing and though it's a great fic, I am finding myself skipping parts of the chapters which is unfair to you as it's good writing, but just not my cup of tea. I understand if you can't answer, just thought I'd ask because this now, no matter how good it was in regards to Sev, went way past my tolerance level for Draco/Hermione. Frankly, I wouldn't have started the story as it stands now, if I knew of the other relationship in it.

I like this new improved Draco! :)

Well, poor Severus has lost it, and Draco doesn't quite know if he's got it yet.

ooo! what a great story! i can't wait to read more!

You could go on until an August wedding. The longer the better your story is brilliant. I love it. Thanks for sending the frylle's along with the update. They have made me happy, too.

The dresses are really lovely!  It will be a lovely wedding party.I'm glad that Ron has come to realize how unreasonable and unkind his behavior had been.  I'm not sure that I could have forgiven him as quickly as Hermione did, but I think it was a good thing that she could and they could put the entire thing behind them.I liked Draco's concern for her wellbeing and made sure that Ron understood that he did not want to see Hermione hurt again.I'm looking forward to watching how Hermione and Severus handle being together with Draco while they work on the special project.  It should be very interesting.Severus will soon have to go to Provence to see his grandmother, and I know it will be difficult for him to lose her.  If I recall, it is her wish that Severus inherit her estate.  Perhaps he will think more about starting his own business and taking on an apprentice.  Miss Granger, perhaps?I'm glad that Ron is keeping Hermione's secret... her attraction to Severus had been something he recognized at the beginning of the school year, after all.  I can't help but wonder how she will fare at Harry and Ginny's wedding if Severus is able to attend.I was so happy to see this new chapter.  It's a great story and I will be following along to see how it all works out.  Of course, I want Severus and Hermione to be together, but I am curious about how you will manage this with all the complications that are going on in Severus and Hermione's lives.  I have to hope you will find away.Beth

Great chapter with a good, tense cliff hanger.  It was hard to read though because of some formatting issue however.  The page had to be moved to the right to get the end of sentences.

i guess ron just needed the love of a good huffelpuff!  super update.  thanks so much

nicely done as per your usual!! Keep up the great job and cheers to goats and all they do for us!!

Sev is randy, Luna and Ron have it figured, Draco suspects, and Harry and Ginny are oblivious. That sum it up? :)

It's been so long since I've gotten an update (I whine, from my cosy seat where I spend time reading instead of slaving over writing myself).  Thank you for this, the story is great if I haven't said so already.  I could use a few more chapters, though.... ;)

Ah, those Slytherins.  And I think Ron got let off a little to easily.  But I do enjoy this story. 

Not crazy about talk of Ron, LOL want more to happen with Severus and Hermione. I'm getting impatient, Great Job :)

oh, please!  where do i get a bottle of that!  beautifully written.  thanks so much

I remember coming across this story when it was only two chapters, but somehow I neglected to bookmark it.
I'm glad I found it again.

The man is a lesson in beratement, isn't he?  Lovely encounter, despite the guilty aftermath.

Of course he feels guilty. It's Sev! :)

I thought this chapter was great. I was sampling your story,three chapters back, while looking for a new story to read. It was good, so I kept going for three chapters til the end. I'll start at the beginning now and read through properly. Hopefully you'll have a new chapter by the time I get to the end again. It won't take me long. 

I'm really enjoying this story. One complaint, though: This chapter was too short!  Really, I like the way you're working around the complications of teacher-lusting-after-student and introducing Draco into the mix. Perhaps two Slytherins might be truly interested in the Golden Gal Gryffindor? Boy, that could become deviously nasty!

I enjoyed the chapter.  I didn't realize Severus was in a sex shop though.  I thought he was in his chambers.
