ReviewedAwakening in the Infirmary
“Who are you?” the Potions master asked with a stern voice in the dimmed light of the infirmary.
“Severus Snape, you bloody well know who I am!” the young woman chided him.
“I beg your pardon; I have never seen you before.”
She moaned, tried to focus her eyes and addressed the nurse assistant, who was fussing about her. “Could you please tell Poppy or Minerva to kick this thick-headed husband of mine?”
The nurse shot suspicious glances at her. It took her some time to answer.
“Professor McGonagall has to teach classes, Madam Pomfrey has her day off and pray tell, who is your husband?”
The patient sat up, enraged about this blunt attempt at a tasteless joke, and was ready to bully her spouse into the next week as a deep voice interrupted her.
“Yes, please, who is your husband?” Albus Dumbledore’s voice came from behind.
“Are you joking, Headmaster? Okay, just to end this silliness: my husband is Potions master Severus Snape, Head of Slytherin House, and I am Hermione Granger Snape, his wife and Arithmancy teacher at Hogwarts.”
Dumbledore walked around the bed. “You must be mistaken. Professor Snape is our newly appointed Potions master. He hasn’t enough personal experience to be appointed as Head of House.”
Hermione inhaled sharply and managed to look at them closely for the first time. The Headmaster seemed to be younger and – as she was able to focus at her husband –
so did he.
“Have you any proof for your words?” the older professor asked.
She reached under her robe and took out a chain with a pendant to pass it to him.
He was instantly transported to Severus, dumped at the feet of the young man, who took the pendant and just marginally looked at it.
Snape completely ignored the swearing Headmaster, who was trying to get back to his feet, before he gave the pendant back to the woman.
“It is the Prince family crest, and you have to be my wife in order to make it work. But obviously we aren’t married yet.”
She tried to recollect her memories. She must have had a Time-Turner accident. She remembered a duelling club and a spell going wrong: it hit her Time-Turner and then everything went black. Hermione decided to ask the obvious.
“So please tell me, in which year do you live?”
Severus and Dumbledore exchanged glances. The old sorcerer cleared his throat and glanced at the curious nurse lingering in the background.
“Why don’t you and Severus take this discussion to a more private place? In the dungeons perhaps?”
After some unsuccessful attempts to walk on unsteady legs, the headmaster summoned a cushioning cloud and dressed her appropriately with a flick of his wand.
The younger man nodded in agreement and led her to the warded rooms of his private refuge.

A really interesting way to use the time-turner.
fantastic tale so cleverly told in so few words. loved it
I feel bad for missing all of those updates. I started reading books so I wasn't coming online like I used to but I am glad to have finished this, I liked it very much, very short and sweet. I like the idea of the Serpent on his headboard of his bed.
i can't imagin what that might have been like for him, joyful and painful at the same time. wonderful update. thanks and christmas and holiday smoochies
This has been a wonderful story to follow, especially because Severus now have someone to live for:-))
Awe. This was a really cute story. thank you.
lol good to be home and everythings all right after all.
Oh that's really risky! Legilmens can see dreams, too!
Oh, the angst he'll live under.
Oh my gods! He got her pregnant. I hope she isn't saying too much.
Oh, as if his vow to Dumbledore, his guilt over Lily weren't enough, sadle him with this! Oh, his life isn't fair.
Oh little vixen! Led him right where she wanted him!
lol Oh this is good! Her knowledge of him made him at least relax. One step forward.
Oh I love it when this are so baffling! The locket is a neat bit, I can see that being very handy.
Nice way to end it. Confirming that he's held on so long to find it's true and then knowing he's only got the next 6 years to go through 'til he starts / continues his relationship with her... I know it can be taken the wrong way, but it's better you ended it this way instead of starting from this point. ;) Well done!
That was a nice way to end this.
This part of time turner stories always a strange feeling in me. I can't help but think Snape an old pervert lusting after an 11 year old girl. I don't mind the age difference but NOT until she's 16 or 17. I know writers don't think like that (fortunately) but there's still that strange feeling. So I'm curious as how you'll proceed.
Oh, my. At least he can be hopeful.
Finally Severus knows what he has fought for and waited so long for is right there before him. How wonderful it must have been for him to see her looking into his eyes after her sorting. Only six more years and all his wished will come true.
Thank you for such a great story on the value of patience.

Nice. I wonder if Severus will deviate from his past course?
OH MY GOSH....I am so loving this story....Poor Severus...Bless him!!
This is a nice insight into Husband!Snape and his love for Hermione. And he knows there will be another baby to keep Sebastian company.
Thank you for this look at Hermione' and Severus' family life in the present. Seeing how happy they are and hearing Severus say that “Yes, everything will be alright,” made me smile. But I know that Past!Snape is having a hard time without his Hermione.
I can't wait to see you next update! Well done, Shella.
Beth
Sweet, but short. I know it's a drabble, but it is a good one leaving me with wanting more at the end of each chapter.
yay! thanks
This is so cute. How lucky she is to receive such love from this man.
