One More Light (Severus Snape's Love Story)

Chapter 30

"Honey! Are you home?"

Hermione just arrived back home from Sam's and she found the house empty. But then she heard, "I'm at the back."

She walked to her backyard and found Oliver was sitting on one of the chair with a writing pad on his lap.

"Making game strategies again?"

"Yeah, sort of..." he said with his Scottish accent, "How was it?"

"It was great. Finally! I browsed her design drawings and honestly it took me quite some time because I didn't know which one to choose, they are all looked beautiful. However after we discussed, Sam helped me to narrow down so I could choose one and she accommodated my requests too into that design so I felt as if it is personally designed for me."

He smiled back at her.

"She said I could do fitting in 2 weeks. I really can't wait."

He smiled, "well, happy to know we have it finally crossed from the list."

She playfully slapped his arms and he put down the writing pad and pulled her to his lap instead, "really, I'm happy. I know how you stressed out because of the dress."

"We're getting married in less than 3 months, and I didn't even have the dress, of course I'm stressed out."

She laid down to his shoulder and he rubbed her arms.

"When I first saw her wedding dress in the pictures, I k now it's beatifikasi but when she really showed it ti me, I was liked 'wow', it was so beautiful. The fabric, the laces and the embroideries, which she did herself, they are very beautiful. Hey, they got married in your castle. Why didn't you get invited?"

He frowned as if he couldn't believe she asked this questions.

"First of all, it's not my castle. It's my father's. Hard to believe, but my father actually good friends with him. So, I'm sure my father was happy to offer the castle for his wedding. Secondly, I am not either Snape or Sam's closed friend. And if you remember, my best friend is Cedric, who by the way, was drinking his ass off when the wedding took place. I as a good bestfriend was accompanying him."

"Right right right... no need to explain further."

"Sure, brightest witch of her age," he laughed.

She playfully slapped him. She loved how he always grounded her down. After they laughed, Hermione was serious again and asked him, "Does Cedric know about Sam has gotten back together with Snape?"

He shooked his head, "I need to tell him eventually. I am thinking about it. Yesterday actually I'm a bit unhappy when Harry and Ginny shared about this. I mean, I'm happy for them, really..."

"Really?" She asked again not believing.

"Maybe a little only."

"Well, Harry got closed with him after he knew the truth and he spent a lot of time with Snape and his son. So, it's normal if he often shared about them. Anyway, I also feel you're in difficult situation now. If Cedric knew that you know and didn't tell him, he might be unhappy. But afterall Cedric and Sam are bestfriends, Sam should be the one who tell him."

"He still loves her. All these years." He sighed, "I just don't get him. He's a famous quidditch player, girls chanting his name in every game we had. I believe he could just smile at them and they would throw themselves at him."

She laid down on his shoulder, "because love doesn't work that way. You know it too. Still remember when we first get together? You thought I had a thing with Harry that you surpressed your own feeling."
