Why is it that only women seem to have common sense?  Good for Hermione.

Well, at least he's being honest. And since we all know where this is probably headed, we can enjoy the ride and the anticipation...

*sigh* how sweet... I count on you to prevent the atrocious things Draco has spoken about, though. And I am glad that Severus' mind finally started working, as I am sure they need time to get to know each other better.

Wow first Draco thanks her and sort of appologizes, seemingly to want to be friends. Then he sees the affection between them and wonders why they are fighting it.

BUt I cannot believe that Hermione didnt' see jsut how much Severus opened up to her - really exposed himself - well, for him it was a double barn door not a window! And she didn't see it.   Well, one can only hope.

I am plenty freaked out by the plan to kill Hermione. Maybe they should move somewere else??

An explanation from Severus is good...wouldn't want Hermione to stay mad at him for long with pregnancy hormones...could make the summer quite uncomfortable.

Looking forward to the next chapter.  =)

Snape, Snape, Snape.  Too noble for his own good. I hope he gets over that quickly.

I'm glad that Draco is going to be alright...at least soon.  Looking forward to reading the next chapter.  =)

Sheesh! What a prat he is! I mean I know that eventually he will confess his feelings and all of that, but really! Great update. Thanks!

He wasn't used to a boisterous group that he couldn't threaten with detention. LOL!!!!

oH I feel so badly for Harry. I should have known Molly would figure out the secret.

Severus in a black t-shirt with jeans??? How yummy is that? VERY

Lovely of Dean and Semus to escort her to the dance, just when she was feeling lonly and neglected. Well done boys! Many kudos to Severus for having the purple gown made. I think there are feeling for Hermione if we dig really really deep

I realize Harry is doing this because he feels its the only way to protect the child and Hermione. Yet at the same time I wonder about the state of his conscience that he could bald face lie to Ginny....

Holy COW! I wonder was that night a one off? Or just a lucky shot she got preggers? What dire straights they are in

i see his point but she makes a valid point, too (and i'm not even a libra!).  hope they'll work it out soon.  thanks so much

I'm glad Draco's feeling better and that thy have this conversation. Hermione is so right about the fact that loving and being loved even for a short time is better than a whole life of solitude. I hope things will be better for them in the future.

Well, that's a start! :)

Oh Severus she needs you to help her relax!! What better way than nakkid??

I am giggling that they were both so shocked by their shared kiss! hehhehehehe

Oh, wow, poor Draco. I'm really proud that he stood up against Voldemort and refused the Dark Mark. I'm surprised that Severus didn't know what to do or at least stop the bleeding himself, was  he trying to bridge a gap between Hermione and Draco?

acidic spells ??? that sounds like cruel and unusual punishment, so perfectly in character for voly. My poor Severus!

Nice chapter. A good blend of horror and romance all in one. And wow what a kiss! Thanks for the update.

*Sigh*

yay!  finally a kisseroo!  and yay draco!   wonderful update.  thanks so much

awww... just lovely interaction between Severus and Hermione, and a perfacet first kiss... can't wait for more.

Nice chapter! Good balance of action and romance. :)
