Hermione was sat with Harry in the chambers she shared with Severus. "How are things?" Harry asked his best friend, "good.." She smiled awkwardly. Harry sensed this and looked at her with intrigue, "just good? Herms...." He pushed causing her to be honest, she couldn't lie to Harry.

"Things are a bit weird between Sev and me." She explained sadly, running her hands over her bump. "The past few days, Severus has been distant... Really distant."
"Maybe he's got s lot going on? I'm sure you're worrying to much, it's obvious how much he loves you." Harry reassured.
"No, things are different. He keeps moving away every time I touch him Harry. It's like he doesn't want me here." Hermione explained, Harry looked at her with worry.

"Talk to him, just talk to him. Have it out..." Harry insisted and Hermione nodded, "I will do, as soon as he gets back from the forbidden forest. IF that's where he is." She groaned, "I can assure you of one thing Herms, he won't be out with other girls. It took him kind enough to find you!" Harry laughed.

Severus arrived back with a cloth bag full of herbs, Hermione looked at Harry who gave her a knowing look. "I'll leave you two to it!" He winked and hugged her goodbye.
He acknowledged Severus as he passed him and Severus responded with a nod.

"Sev, sit down. We need to talk." Hermione told him gently, Severus sighed and walked towards her taking a seat beside her. "If there was something wrong... You would tell me wouldn't you? You haven't changed your mind about us have you?" She asked nervously.
"What? Of course not! Why would you even ask such a thing?" He replied pulling her to him. "You've been different lately, I thought that maybe..." Hermione explained but he cut her off with a finger to her lips.

"I haven't changed my mind at all my love, I just have some things on my mind." He assured her, she seemed to relax a little.
"You promised to be honest with me about everything Severus, so please tell me exactly what's going on!" She snapped, she didn't mean to but she hated being kept in the dark.

"It's The wedding." He sighed, "one week away!" Hermione beamed trying hard to diffuse her wizards tension by showing her excitement. "I can't wait my love, it's just that I want everything to be exactly how you have pictured it in your thoughts."

"I'm sure it will be!" Hermione smiled, "I don't want to let you down, all I ever do is let people down!" He sighed, falling back into the chair and tooting his butt trumpet.
Pfffttt
"Well you won't let me down, but you will let me choke on your fumes. For suck sake Severus what have you eaten?!" Hermione laughed, waddling towards the window to open it.
"Cabbage," Severus smirked matter of factly.

Hermione rolled her eyes at her wizard and sat beside him again, she cuddled up to his chest and looked up at him. "In all seriousness, I know that whatever you plan it will be perfect. That's why I'm glad you're planning it." She reassured, Severus leant down and kissed his witch.

"Just please put s plug in your arse that day!" She laughed, Severus chuckled too. "Please stop.." "Ridiculing your flatulance, I knooow." Hermione groaned.
He forced his lips to hers desperately and she pushed closer to him in response.

They both let out a chuckle when they realised Hermione had something in her way, the bump! "Come my love." Severus grinned cheekily, "we will find a way.." He spoke silkily, his voice echoing in Hermione's mind.

He led her into their bedroom, and then...
