A good ol' jolly romp through the lives of Severus & Hermione, with a few of our other favourite characters we've come to love thrown in for good measure. And a few new ones too! Most of these are owned by the delectable Jo Rowling, and I've just borrowed them for a short while and given them a bit of an airing. Thank you all for reading my little ramblings. I don't know what I'd do without you all! And please please please don't forget to leave me your comments (good and bad) as I love to hear from you all! I raise my wand to you all... JR x

Severus missed his friend when she left Hogwarts some six year ago. He'd tried to push his feelings for her to the back of his mind but when she returned his world stood still. Would his feelings be reciprocated? This is my first FanFic. I'm an avid Alan Rickman Fan and absolutely adore Severus Snape. SS/HG has always been my favourite ship. I don't own any of these characters (worst luck). Further, my milkshake does not bring any boys to my yard. Fact.

Five years post Hogwarts Battle and the Marriage Law has finally been ratified. Hermione has been chosen to marry Snape, the odious Bat of the Dungeons and her fellow professor. However will it end? ####These wonderful characters (with the odd exception) are not mine but belong to the wonderful JK Rowling. I'm just borrowing them for this folly, nee frolic, through my imagination for a short while. Arbuthnot Gillan IS my character. He's like everyone's most wonderful, Jewish uncle, but more wizard like. Anyhoo - enjoy this romp. And please please PLEASE like and comment (I LOVE comments but please don't make me cry.) The chapters are very short so you should be able to breeze through it. It's not deep with a highly entangled back story/sub story, but what it is, is a little light romance with a bit of angst and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Have a lovely, and wonderful day full of romance and love.##### JR xxx **COMPLETED***

Severus and Hermione had no desire to return to Hogwarts some ten years after the Battle finished. Each were settled in their own lives, but when Minerva McGonagall pleaded with them to return to help out over the Yule period they decided it was probably a better option than spending yet another Christmas alone... *****I hope you enjoy my little amble (nee frolic) with Severus and Hermione, and if you like it I'd love to hear from you (but if you didn't then I'd still like to hear from you but please don't make me cry!)******* THIS STORY IS MINE BUT I'VE BORROWED THE CHARACTERS FROM JKR, GIVEN THEM A BIT OF AN AIRING AND DUSTED THEM OFF. HOPEFULLY THEY ARE NO WORSE FOR WEAR.... Lots of love and a HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
