My Professor

Chapter 28

The following morning Hermione awoke to a mass of black curls in her face. A smile crept to her lips as she felt the woman's warm body cuddling up to her own.
"So much for sticking to sides." She whispers moving the hair from her face. Bellatrix mumbles something inaudible as she nudges closer to the brunette.
"Bella..." she whispers, caressing the ravenette's hair.
"What" came the raspy reply.
"It's time to get up" Bellatrix groans in response.
"But you're so comfy" the woman nudges her head further into the girls neck earning a giggle.
"You're so cuddly when your sleepy. I never would have imagined you'd be so cuddly" Hermione smiles moving her head slightly to kiss the Ravenette's.
"I know. It's disgusting " Bella mumbles as she slowly opens her eyes, her eyes begin to adjust to the light, and the first thing that caught her attention was the girl's neck and a few strands of brown hair that tickled her nose.

"I hate it. "she adds before sitting up. Bellatrix blinks a few times, before glancing back down at the brunette. Hermione smiles warmly up at the ravenette who'd never admit it aloud but found the girl to be quite adorable.
"Get up, you're creasing my sheets."
"And a good morning to you too." Hermione rolls her eyes as she too, sat up.

Bellatrix mumbles something as she made her way to the bathroom, Hermione's eyes never once straying from her feminine curves until she disappeared through the door.
The brunette couldn't hide her smile as she fell back down on the bed.

She still found it quite hard to believe how much her relationship with Bellatrix Black had changed, it went from fearing the witch to lying in her bed.

A robe to her face caused Hermione to shoot up, her eyes instantly falling to the smirking woman.
"Come on sleeping beauty we haven't time to lie around."
Hermione hadn't even noticed the woman had returned let alone changed into her usual black attire.
"Quick question, what am I going to wear?"
"Well clothes preferably." Bellatrix said earning an eye roll from Hermione,
"I can't imagining old Dumbledore would be impressed with you showing up in your birthday suite." A smirk tugs at the brunettes lips,
"What about you."
"I'd never go prancing around in such a way."
"Good, I'd hate for anyone else to see what I saw last night." Hermione's smirk grew even bigger when she noticed the pink cheeks of the woman who desperately tried to hide them.

"Getting awful possessive there Granger." Bellatrix said as She moved to make the bed, ushering Hermione out of it.
"Well I never was any good at sharing."
"I'm not yours to share."
"Not officially...but that won't last long."
"Awful sure of yourself considering not so long ago you could barely speak to me."
"That's because you were so devastatingly gorgeous you took my breath away."
"Real smooth." Bellatrix hides her smile.
"Seriously though, you did challenge me, I liked you and longed for your attention whilst everyone else thought me mad to want it. I tried desperately hard, I was even about to give up at one point, but I'm so very glad I didn't."
"Oh and why's that?" Bellatrix made no effort to look at the girl.
Hermione smiles as she approaches the shorter woman, stopping her from what she was doing.
"Because now I haven't just got your attention, I've got you." She wraps her arms tightly around the ravenette's waist.
Bellatrix swallows,
"You should change, your friends will be wondering where you are." Bellatrix shimmies out of the brunettes grip. Hermione sighs as the woman once again changes the subject.

"Now I don't think you want to wear what you wore yesterday." Bellatrix looks at the dirty and slightly torn clothes.
"You can't wear my dresses because that will look quite suspicious you waltzing in with one of my dresses..." Bellatrix said aloud as she began examining her wardrobe. Hermione's eyes widen at the amount of different dresses that occupied the woman's wardrobe, most of which were dark colours.
"Oh, I know." Bellatrix walks into her wardrobe and exits holding up a pair of ripped bootcut jeans.
"You have jeans?"
"Well, they were a present, though personally I wouldn't be caught dead in them."
"Who were they from?" Hermione asked.
Bellatrix eyes the jeans in her hand before tossing them at the girl.
"It doesn't matter."
"Well they must matter otherwise you'd have thrown them out" Hermione arches her brow.
"It doesn't matter. Now put them on." Bellatrix said before disappearing into her wardrobe once more.

Hermione strips down to her knickers and bra then slips into the trousers which surprisingly fitted her quite well considering the height difference. Bellatrix returns a moment later with Hermione's hoodie.
"Here."
The brunette turns to look at the ravenette who held the jumper out towards her.
"My hoodie, I thought it was lost" she arches her brow.
"Yes well, now I found it."
"In your wardrobe."
"I put it there for safe keeping." Bellatrix shrugs. Hermione smiles taking the hoodie from the woman. She couldn't hide her growing smirk as Bellatrix tried to look anywhere else but Hermione.

"You can look you know, I don't mind, actually I'd much rather have your eyes on me." She took a step closer to where the ravenette stood.
Hermione had to admit she wasn't excepting her always so confident Professor to be so... confident-less and yet Hermione found it quite cute.

"You should go, your friends will be worried."
"Hey, is everything okay?"
"Yes, why wouldn't it be?" Bellatrix furrows her brows. Hermione shrugs,
"I don't know, you just seemed sad for a minute there."
Bellatrix laughs,
"Me? Sad? Please, now run along to your friends."
Hermione's eyes widen slightly as it hit her, her friends, what was she to tell her friends?

"Oh god! What do I tell them. They'll be asking where I've been . And what about the jeans, they'll be asking about these too." Hermione panics.
"Shh , you worry to much. Just say you fell asleep in the library or something, I mean you do that often enough" Bella raises her eyebrows.
"That was one time Bella, one time" Hermione rolls her eyes.
"During my lesson "
"I promise it will never happen again okay, not during your lessons anyway" Hermione smiles.
"Hmm, I don't believe you " Bella said walking over to her window.

Hermione tilts her head, something was definitely up with the woman, but Hermione was not about to push her, she knew how that would end. So instead she walks up behind Bella wrapping her arms around the woman's waist pulling her back into Hermione's front.
Bellatrix tenses at first, though a moment passed and she relaxes.
"I promise " Hermione whispers nudging her head into the crook of Bella's neck.
A slight smile tugged at the woman's lips,
"You'll have to prove it."
Hermione smiles against the woman's skin, placing a soft kiss on her neck.
"Anything you want dimples." She mumbles against the woman's skin, not prepared for the sudden movement.

Bellatrix swiftly pinned the girl to the wall just beside the window.
"What did you just call me!" She growls
"Dimples." Hermione responds.
"Why!"
"Because you have two adorable dimples in your back just at the bottom of your spine."
Bellatrix frowns.
"Nothing about me is adorable!"
"Oh I disagree." Hermione smiles, her eyes meeting the dark witch's. Bellatrix growls, irritated the girl had payed that much attention and yet touched at the fact she did. Though the girl mustn't know that, she'd managed to get too close as it is, there was no way she could get any closer. She simply wasn't allowed.

"Never call me that again." Bellatrix warned.
"I thought it was cute."
"I don't do cute. I scare people for fun, I enjoy the thought of people fearing me, there's nothing cute about that."
"You're like a little scary princess." Bellatrix stood back in disbelief, what the hell is the girl doing, why isn't she scared? And princess? She was no princess.
"Get out." Was all that left Bellatrix's lips.
Hermione quickly makes her way to the door, stopping just as she opens it. A smirk makes its way to Hermione's lips as she turns to look at the irritated witch.
"I'll see you later...Dimples."
Bellatrix growls reaching for the nearest thing which happened to be a book and lobbed it in Hermione's direction, though fortunately for Hermione she'd made it out of the room and closed the door before the book could make contact with her face, instead it made contact with the door.

Sorry for the wait, hope you enjoy and are all safe!
