Wow! Excellent chapter! I hope that they manage to get Hermione back.

oooh, I wonder who was watching them.

"I will only be wearing black until they make something darker." OMG, this was too funny. I also think it was sweet that they ended the evening with a perfect kiss.

Hmmm... I think her ex-husband was the one to nab her--that man is a menace.

Tee hee--it's funny that Sev thinks that it may kill him to chaperone the children on a Valentine's dance. I about died from laughter when Hooch called him a drama queen! Too brilliant, dear. Sev knew that she was not listening when he asked her to the dance and that makes it even funnier.

I just love Minerva, she is still worrying after her cubs after all tese years. I also thought that it was sweet of her to offer to have the senior staff members to sift through her mail to prevent her from getting upset.

Hermione is right, the family could have done something, but if it had not been for Bill that night, she probably would have died... the way I look at it, better late than never.

Oh jeez, Ron is twisted. He deserved way more than what he got.

Severus certainly has a better way about him now; I like it. I love seeing him smiling and laughing, especially how he is with Hermione. BTW, I totally agree when you say that if you ignore the little things in everyday life, that the big ones don't mean as much. 

I like the thought of a joking Snape, it makes me smile. No! How could Molly send Hermione that kind of a letter? Her son is such a scum-bag, and Hermione does not need to get him out of the mess that he caused. It's good that Sev offered her a chance to talk, I hope that she takes him up on that offer, she could benefit from it.                         

I am glad that Hermione is back at Hogwarts, it should make things interesting for her, and hopefully better than what she had it with Ron. Good story so far. I am looking forward to what happens.

Ron is a git. I don't blame Harry for wanting to exact his revenge, hell, even I do.

Wow.  I  can't believe Molly went so far against the rest of her family!!!

Was Ron the issue Draco had to leave to deal with?  And why did Harry leave her?

I like the small wedding.  I'm also glad that you made it out of the bad relationship you based the story on.  Good for you!

I think the Kiss couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.  I'm glad that not all the Weasley family was bad.

That must have been terrifying!  I like Severus as an angel.  To Ron, he'd be an avenging angel, and not something he'd like to see.

Who are the women?  ARgh!  onto the next chapter to find out!

Molly and Ron both need to be in a ward along side of Lockheart and the Longbottoms!

Well, that definitely wasn't subtle. 

To bad she doesn't have one of those charmed galleons with her like Draco had.  That would be useful.

oooo, small cloaked figure, hmm?  Maybe Ginny?  I can't wait to find out... yay I don't have to!

A lovely dance.  I thought it was funny how annoyed Harry and Draco make Severus.

That's a brilliant use of transfiguration!  If you can't keep their attention for "normal" things, put it into perspective for them.

I like Draco, too.
