Under the Mistletoe
Title: Under the Mistletoe
Challenge: Mistletoe
Team: Order of the Phoenix
Rating: PG
Words: 100
Characters: Hermione, Snape
A/N: Still don’t own characters. Happy Holidays to all.
It’s Christmas time at Hogwarts. Professor Granger though can see Snape withdraw into himself.
He’s quieter since the war, and her efforts to befriend him have been mixed. He tolerates her beside him at breakfast. Sometimes there’s warmth in his eyes.
But his black eyes were wary then flat when she suggested lunch at Hogsmeade.
They meet in a quiet corridor today and he’s pleased to see her. But then mistletoe appears overhead. Snape tenses, cheeks flushing.
Hermione immediately blasts the mistletoe.
“No pressure,” she says gently before walking away.
“Hermione, wait!”
She turns.
“Perhaps… next time?” he says softly.
