Hermione decided to visit Snape, even after he told her not to. No, she didn't feel up to living with him but she wanted to see him, she missed him.

When she arrived at the hospital wing it was quiet, Madame Pomfrey must have been in her quarters and she found that Snape was sleeping. She was actually glad that she could be with him without being told to leave.

She sat by his bedside for what felt like minutes but was infact hours, she heard him groan and whimper in his sleep. She wondered what he was dreaming about.
Whatever it was, it sounded horrific.
She gently stroked his face and tucked a loose strand of his black hair behind his ear, she placed a gentle kiss on his cheek. "Oh, what you do to me.." she whispered gently with a sigh.
"I know you don't want me around but I love you..."

She returned to the Gryffindor tower feeling like a weight had been lifted, she had finally told him the truth. Granted, he wasn't awake to hear it but she was glad it went unheard. 'Luna was right about telling him.' She thought to herself as she climbed into bed. She only had one small angry glare from Ginny to deal with, Which was a relief. She fell asleep peacefully, being entertained by her own dream.

"Hermione.. I've done it! We've done it!" Snape cried happily, staggering towards her whilst gripping his desk for support.
"I'm so proud of you, my love." Hermione beamed, tears of joy filling her eyes. "I could never have done this without you, thank you for not giving up on me." He smiled, pulling her into a kiss. "Severus, I agreed to marry you regardless of wether you walked again or not."

💤💤💤

Hermione shot up in bed, shaking as if she had just been struck by one of her nightmares from the war. It was different though, she enjoyed this dream, maybe too much. "If only.." she grunted, throwing herself into her side and attempting to fall asleep again.

It was of no use though, she was wide awake until dawn. All she could do was think of Professor Snape, she knew she couldn't leave him to fight this battle alone. She would inform Minerva of her decision in the morning.
