Severus didn’t know why he’d been invited to the Halloween celebration taking place at Grimmauld Place. He’d killed Dumbledore, their idol; a few years in Azkaban weren’t enough to wash him of his sins in the eyes of many.
However, he knew why he’d come. His reason stood in a corner, listening to whatever nonsense Ron Weasley was telling her. He’d been obsessed with Hermione Granger since he’d seen her testify at his trial. She’d tried to be objective; he’d found her magnificent. To see her again was the only thing that had fuelled his will to live in prison.

He slowly made his way towards her through the hatred of the crowd. When he was close enough to the fiancés, he heard the young woman scold the red head.
“Honestly, Ron, you’re supposed to have more neurons than freckles!”
Ron blushed with fury; Severus thought for a moment that he was going to hit her, but instead, he turned around and left the room.
Grasping the opportunity, Severus presented her with a glass of pumpkin juice.
“Pumpkins were once recommended as a cure for freckles,” he said.
Hermione burst out laughing.
‘Yes, tonight, you will be mine,’ Severus thought.
