Here's a lovely, frothy fic for your weekend: Too Wise to Woo, by Lady Apythia.
Summary: The war is over and the last of the Death Eaters have been rounded up and sent to Azkaban. Moved by the spirit of celebration and blissful in their own new-found contentment, Hermione Granger’s friends begin to wonder if the never-ending battle of wits between she and Severus Snape isn't a hint of something more. When they decide to test their theory with a little matchmaking scheme, their meddling puts Snape in a position to save Hermione from a debilitating evil. But how far is he willing to go to help her?
Rated K+, complete in ten chapters. Humor, Romance.

There is another, darker subplot in this story that takes the place of the Claudio/Hero debacle (which works well is the original story, but wouldn't have worked in these circumstances), and I like the story better for it.
