Summary
She needed to curl into his chest and be very insignificant, instead of essential. She needed him to understand how much she missed her parents, and how sore her feet were at the end of each day and how hungry she always was, and to confirm that she hadn’t made too bad a blunder, that she’d been doing the best she could. She wanted his voice without that godforsaken, blue pulsing light. She really wanted to hear him confirm that she still existed. She wanted to look into his eyes and gauge how much his role at Hogwarts was killing him, because she knew he’d never admit a scrap of it out loud.
~*~Hermione hasn't seen Severus since the death of Professor Dumbledore. Since she erased herself from her parents memories, Since Voldemort overthrew the Ministry, and since she, Harry, and Ron started hunting horcruxes. While she treks the countryside, Severus lords over Hogwarts as the new Headmaster, neither of them where they want to be. Pushed to their limits in the midst of a war, they are forced to reckon with their priorities and figure out how they might act in order to live with themselves.

Summary
She pressed her lips together and pushed away from the tree, bringing herself less than a foot from him. “I want you to look at me and feel selfish.”
Her words rang in his head. Snape felt them committing themselves to his memory almost against his will. He had always thought one needed to be beautiful to experience beautiful things, but whatever warmth she looked at him with was at odds with that belief. She seemed to have addressed that thought directly.
~*~As the war ramps up and Lord Voldemort accrues more and more strength, both Severus and Hermione often times feel that the bond that has formed between them is a fragile one. As they grow closer and discover more about their connection, they begin to carve out their own path in a conflict that has been dictated by others for so long.
