Minerva was walking up to Albus' office like any normal Saturday evening. "Hello, Albus." She said as she walked into Dumbledore's private quarters. "Hello, Minerva, up for losing to another round of chess are you?" Dumbledore chuckled. "I will beat you this time, Al. Must I remind you, and you are not undefeated." Minerva laughed. "Well played, Minerva. You white as always?" Albus said, setting up the board. A while later, Minerva was holding the score, she had all his pawns and a bishop. Albus had seven of her eight pawns and one knight. "Scared Al?" Minerva teased, and it was her turn. She was calculating her moves, and she could put him in checkmate. "No, why? Are you?" Albus said a twinkle in his eye. Minerva smiled, luckily, Albus didn't catch it, or he would have gotten nervous. "Checkmate!" Minerva sounded victorious. His eyes widened, he couldn't believe he had been beat, and he looked up at her and smiled. "Good play. I didn't think you'd figure that move-out." He said, congratulating his colleague. "Please, you've been using that move for ages; you think I'd figure it out." Minerva retorted playfully. "Up for another round?" Albus smiled, and she shook her head. "Not this time, Al. It's almost Christmas, and I have third-year essays to grade, along with fifth year's essays." McGonagall said, rising from her chair. "Don't forget this," Albus said handing her the black velvet hat that she usually is seen wearing, as she headed for the door. "Thank you again, Albus. Oh." She said, grabbing, her hat, looking up to meet his eyes, but something else caught her eye.
"What is it, Min?" Albus asked, and looked up. "Mistletoe. Damn." She laughed. "Well, it is almost Christmas. Consider it an early gift." He laughed. The glow from the fireplace, everything looked like a movie scene. He bent down, wrapped his arms around her waist, Minerva placing her arms around his neck. Ever so sweetly, they stared into each other's eyes and kissed. After about three seconds, they slowly pulled away. "That was…" Minerva said, and looked down and blushed profusely. "The most wonderful experience I've ever had the pleasure to endure." Albus finished for her, and she looked back up to meet him, her mouth ajar just a tad. "I, oh you tease." She said and giggled. "Just getting back at you for when you made me blush." Albus chuckled. "I won." He added, and they both laughed. "Good night, Albus," Minerva said at the now open doorway, and before he could speak, she kissed him on the cheek. His pupils dilated and his mouth popped open just a small amount. "Not yet." She giggled and left. "Damn kitten." He laughed to himself and closed the door behind him.
