“I cannot believe you actually came,” Severus said, looking up as Hermione walked in.
“I said I would,” she replied. “Have I ever given you reason to think that I don’t keep my word?”
He looked away. “When one is lied to repeatedly, it becomes hard to differentiate the honest people from the dishonest ones.”
“Severus...”
“You shouldn’t be here,” he interrupted. “It is likely that this very conversation is being monitored. Would you have people know of our association?”
“I would be proud to have people know about us,” she replied, voice low and throbbing with sincerity.
“Foolish girl,” he said, but his voice was laced with affection. “I suspect you shall forget all about me soon enough. Five years is a long time to one as young as you.”
“It’s just not fair,” she said fiercely.
He shrugged. “When has life ever been fair? And in this case I knew what the consequences would be before I took my actions.”
“You saved us all!”
“I still used an Unforgivable, and I do not have the good fortune of being named Potter.”
A knock on the door startled them both.
“It’s time,” the Auror said, and Severus stood with a nod.
“I shall wait for you,” Hermione vowed.
Severus shook his head. “Stubborn Gryffindor. You’ll do so just to prove me wrong, won’t you?”
She smiled through her tears as he was led away. “Bloody right I will.”
