Hey neelix! I just started reading this tale of yours this morning. I was talking to a friend the other day about how I was thinking about reading it and her response was "Anything by neelix is worth your time." So here I am at work reading via my cell phone, and I just have to say I'm so glad that I started reading this! Its a lot of fun and I can't wait to see where this tale goes. Thanks for posting! Much Love ~ Brena

Ah, what a wonderful chapter, I loved it.

Aww, how sweet!!

Aww... loved it!

That was lovely. 

Thanks, neelix! This is just what I needed tonight. Lovely surprises. Little did any of the people in that room know how much of a romantic Severus is.

Now THAT'S a birthday wake up call done in style!

sigh...so very beautiful!  I think I'll steal a line from "Wonderful Life" here, and say that I"m floating off to Happyland on the bubbles from the champagne and the sweetness of this.  Heading off to my own bubble-bath now, and thanking you for giving me some very nice dreams of Severus to mull over...

Now THAT's what I call romantic!  Well done, Severus!!  That was great fun.

Squee! That is all I have to say. No it's not - SQUEE!!

Author's Response: hahahah!!!

So... you enjoyed it then??

WHOOHOOOOO.....she said yes, she said yes!! OH I LOVE IT!!!  PERFECT, wonderful...YAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!WELL DONE, very WELL DONE!!!! 

"He drove her into the bed with his cock." *Blinks*  I'm calling the RSPCA.  Neither wonder it was rock hard - he's probably frozen in fear.  Poor Lucius Malfowl...Cruelty to poultry aside, OMG this is soooooooooooooooo brill!!  What a very Severus way to propose -by legal document! She's getting a very good deal here -  half a business, sparkly ring, a really nice dinner and a shag.  Not bad for a days work it has to be said...

Cool proposal! :)

She needs to trust him a bit more! :)

Hmm make-up sex and a ring (yet to be given / received).  Very good of him.  Can't wait to see what he does next and how the party goes!

Very nice. And who doesn't like make up sex?

Great chapter!!!

Welcome back!  It is kind of a nice change to see her as the insecure one... it seems to always be Severus.  I am glad he was thoughtful enough to throw her a party since she has dropped out of the social scene.  Although, if they have no friends but themselves, they don't need to have make up sex.  They can just stay holed up in the house together, alone, and have "theres nothing on TV" sex, or "It is too cold to go outside" sex, or "Yippee, it is the weekend" sex etc.  I mean, really, they ought to get creative.  There is no reason for them to fight ;)  Hope you are back for good!

Wooohoooo!!  Neelix is back!!  *Ginormous hugs*  Was starting to get a bit concerned - I was thinking, "Oh my God, what if she's been abducted by Alan Rickman, and he's forcing her to endure aromatherapy foot rubs whilst listening to him recite the first year potions speech.   We must mount a rescue!"  And then I thought, "Hang on..."Honestly, Hermione really needs a slap with the reality kipper - she's developing Lav-Lav-like tendancies (although 'Marcella Leibowitz  is an un-necessarily glamourous name).  Severus is very patient and deserves a good shagging! 

Make up sex is usually pretty good.

Aw, poor things! Looking forward to the party. I may be forgetting something you already explained in a previous chapter, but does Hermione have no contact with Harry and Ron at all?

Author's Response: No contact with Ron, loose contact with Harry and Ginny. They're too wrapped up in each other!

alliean's response: Ah, yes. That's why I always resented the Ginny character *scowl*

Author's Response: Me too! I like her in the films, not in the books!

alliean's response: To be honest, in the films, she creeped me out - appearing out of nowhere behind Harry, staring at him, saying things like she was one of those twins in The Shining...


Author's Response: YES! with those staring eyes and mad hair, like some freaky cousin IT!

Great job Neelix, I've read all the chapters in one sitting.  Perfect blend of fluff, romance, humor with a touch a angst.  I wait eagerly for your next chapter. 

Make up sex is a brilliant idea, I am trilled that Severus was smart enough to go after her:-)

Whoohoo!!!  An update, I have missed this story, so glad you are back to posting again...Poor Hermione, letting her imagination run away like that!Can't wait to see what Severus does....WELL DONE! 

Lucky girl.
