Chapter 2 of 5
slytherinlaurelHermione and Severus unexpectedly find themselves embarking on Yule together.

“You hardly need to be fussing over the staff room, Professor Granger.”
Hermione frowned as she turned briefly towards the remark, but continued to rearrange the garland on the mantle place.
“Most of the staff is already gone. I daresay no one cares.”
Hermione set the garland down and turned to eye the man standing by the staff table, arms crossed and mouth in full smirk.
“Did I ask for your opinion?” Hermione snapped.
“I must admit I’m surprised to find you here. Shouldn’t you be inundated with Weasleys hopped up on eggnog and sugary confections?” The comment held a bite, yet was not entirely unkind.
Hermione turned around as if to return to the garland, but rather braced her arms against the fireplace.
“And yet you’re here?” Snape probed steadily.
“Drop it,” Hermione said tartly, trying to keep the breaking note from her voice.
“Fairytale end with Prince Charming rescuing a different princess?”
“Fuck you, Snape.” Her shoulders hunched, trying to push back the angry tears that welled up. “You have no idea.”
“Don’t I? You’ve seen my most intimate memories, Granger,” his voice hissed as he advanced. “You think I don’t know about being pushed down a different path?”
A/N: Thank you to my amazing and gracious beta, Nanacu.

Hey, Honey! This was very cute, I just read all the posted chapters today. :-) I really enjoyed it! Is it complete? Because it seems like it reached a conclusion, but is there more? I'm just wondering because it's still listed as a WIP. Whether complete or not, its still awesome. Thanks for sharing. Much Love ~ Brena
lovely update. thanks and happy new year smoochies
And what does the candle do? Sing a song or deliver a message from Dear Potions Master?
Also as a non native speaker I have a question. Wether there is a little typo (taking a deep breath without the "L") or I've just learned a new expression, but I fail to understand exactly what it means. Care to help a poor girl who's only the HP world to improve his second language?
Well at least Severus gave her a gift.
Hmm. Interesting gift. :)
And "Poof" she turned into a toad! Well, I know that doesn't happen, but it would be funny.
squeeeeeeeee....an update, I love it....I'm glad Severus gave her a present
WOW, I just happened across this story, and I'm hooked..can't wait to see what happens next!!! WELL DONE!!!
Oh I want to see more!
oh, I like this!
With a bit of luck, and if they follow closely the indications on their respective maps they'll bump into each other for good.

"My map hasn't changed in decades". I like that. :)

They obviously both need new maps! :)
Hopefully these 'maps' will lead them together.
This was a good chapter.
Pretty harsh of him.
Why is he so interested? :)
*squee* th ereturn of the white knight. I'm sure he'll save her from a lonely Christmas.
I can imagine Hermione getting lost in a quiddich shop. Sev' the white knight coming to save the damsel in distress... *snicker*
Can't wait to see where this will go.
looking forward to reading the next chapter.
This is wonderful and very moving - more, please!

You're off to a good start. I can't wait to see how she'll respond.
