"Professor?"

"I-uh-I-um, Miss Granger." He quickly stands up remembering she was only wearing a shirt and her knickers. He grabs her clothes from the floor and hands it to her

"Oh god!" She covers herself with the quilt realizing she is wearing nothing but a shirt and her knickers. "What happened? Why am I half naked? This isn't my dormitory! Why is my shoulder wounded? Seriously what the hell happened?" she was asking rather irrationally.

"Watch your language Miss Granger. I will tell you what happened last night. You are currently in my chambers," He was still facing the wall. It was still too awkward to look at her without picturing her naked. "please put your clothes back on." She quickly dressed up trying to remember what had happened.

"Can you tell me what happened now Professor? I don't recall anything else after the ingredient fell on me." Hermione muttered sitting on the bed.

Snape tells Hermione what happened. Including how she got naked and called her "mum" when he was done telling the story, there left with an awkward silence. She hugged him on the chest, thankfully not on his waist. He didn't know how to react to, this.

"Thank you sir." Hermione said.

"It is my job Miss Granger." He said.

"Where's my shirt from last night?"

He hands her her shirt that's partially torn. She slowly grabbed the shirt that was partially torn apart and frowned. She liked that shirt. She turned around to undress from the shirt and wear her own. When she was starting to undress, Snape quickly grabber her arm to stop her.

"I suggest you don't move your arm to prevent the wound opening or hurting yourself.

"I will bring your shirt tomorrow Sir."

"You may have it Miss Granger." He said before Hermione cut her off.

"But Sir, it is yours. It is not mine to keep."

"Well Granger, you may have it. It is no use to me anymore as it no longer fits." Snape said calmly.

"Thank you sir. I just have one question." She said in a grateful voice

"What is it Miss Granger?"

"Is it alright if we become friends?"

"Miss Granger, what on earth do you mean? You, want to befriend the Dungeon Bat? No, I think it's Bat of the Dungeons. Don't you hate me?" His voice was sounding rational rather than curious.

"Yes I do. I do not think of you as the Bat of the Dungeons and I most certainly do not hate you. Despite you, Harry and Ron's mutual hatred, I never thought of you ill." She said proudly.

"Granger, I am your professor. I would not like to be friends. But I appreciate the offer."

"Well okay, worth a shot."

"Miss Granger, if I may ask, why do you not hate me? You're the only student who doesn't feel hatred for me."

Because I have a crush on you Professor. She mouthed. Unfortunately for her Snape was a highly perceptive person.

"I just don't see the reason to hate you."

"You should go now. Breakfast starts in an hour. Head to the Hospital wing to get your shoulder checked."

"Bye Sir!" After Snape was sure that Hermione was gone, he started talking to himself and paced his chambers. "She has a crush on me? How could she have a crush on me? And of all people me?" He didn't know how he felt about this nor did he know why he cared.

He shook it off and opened the door to his living room when he remembered the lamp was open. He left the door open and turned off the lamp. He went straight to his bathroom and took a cold shower to wake himself up. He changed into his normal attire, black robes, black shoes, black button-up-vest and black pants. He went in his living room, picked up a book and sat in front of the fireplace. It has been quite some time since he had sat down. When we was in to what he was reading, he heard a loud knock on his door that was continuous.

When Hermione left Snape's chambers, she noticed his living room. She quickly notices the bookshelf and ignores everything else. When she was about to grab a book, she heard the door slowly opening and got startled. When she realized he wasn't coming out yet, she quickly left his quarters. When she was in front of the door she inhaled the scent coming from the shirt and giggled. It smelt like spearmint toothpaste and potion ingredients. She went straight to the Hospital Wing for her shoulder. When she got there, she greeted Madam Pomfrey.

"Hello Madam Pomfrey!" Hermione said cheerfully.

"Hello Miss Granger. Mr. Potter isn't here if you're wondering where he is." Madam Pomfrey said.

"Oh um, I got into an accident last night and Professor Snape patched me up. When I woke up, I was in his chambers and he told me that spider venom fell on my shoulder while serving detention. And I also had a fever last night. Professor Snape told me to come here.

"Well come here then, sit down let me have a look at it." When Hermione sat down, she thought of  Harry and Ron. Oh God, Harry and Ron! Oh how how she wondered what they would say knowing she didn't come back from her detention. Coincidentally, Harry and Ron came barging in the Hospital Wing screaming for Hermione.
