So, next one of the prompt exchange with SlenderPanda, I hope you like it as it only took me half an hour to write it...

Undersized

"Ouch", Rolanda Hooch whined as she left the now empty Quidditch stadium. She held her back with one hand while the other one searched for support on her broom and the wall. These kids seemed to get more violent over the time of a game, especially the players from Slytherin when they were playing against Gryffindor as they had did today. It had happened when she had tried to end a brawl that had happened far away from the quaffle and the main game, as the two beaters and one of the chasers from Slytherin had literally tried to kill Gryffindors seeker. Rolanda had immediately flown there to get them away from the seeker, fearing that he would be seriously injured by the boys that were more then half a head taller then him. But already as she had approached the group she had to realize that it would not be very easy to stop them as she had been hit on the forehead by a flying bludger bat. She had needed a few seconds to regain focus and had directly flown into the bunch of green and red cloaks, more like shimmers in her slightly blurred vision, and screamed out of her lungs that they should stop and get some distance between each other, but they did not seem to recognize her as the referee, so she was involved into the fight and in that process, her left ankle had been damaged.

"Rolanda, you just banned half of my Quidditch team from playing for the whole rest of the term!", she suddenly heard a loud, angry voice behind her and she groaned as the pounding in her head got harder.

"Severus, they tried to kill the damn seeker!", she hissed, leaning back against the wall. "And they attacked me!"

"Maybe because you decided to directly get into the brawl instead of solving the problem from a safer distance, like... 5 meters with the help of your goddamn wand, witch!"

"Oh, here he is, mister 'I would be better because I am a MAN!' - do you think that you would have done better?"

There it was again – their constant fight about who was acting better in which situation. Her neck protested as she looked up into his face, giving him the usual challenging stare. Severus rose one eyebrow, crossed his arms in front of his chest and said:"I would win this brawl, because the students are scared of me in first place and in second, I am not that undersized like you!"

"WHAT?! I am NOT small! In my whole professional career I have never been lowered in my qualities because of my height!"

If she had been a little bit more mobile she would have chased him to London and back to Hogwarts for his statement, but now it was enough for her to use her broom to make a try of hitting his head. Severus reaction was faster then she had thought, stopping the swinging broom with one tight grip, pulling her towards him in the same movement.

"What are you doing?! Did you wanted to cut my eye out, midget?!"

"I usually do this to get the bats out of the attic!"

They furiously looked at each other, breathing heavy in anger.

"Gnome!", Severus hissed and Rolanda´s eyelid twitched.

"You are not scary!"

"I´ve seen babies playing better then you!"

Her first intention was to hit him in the face with her palm, but suddenly she felt how his hands gripped her hips, driving her spine into the wall and his lips pressed against hers, involving her into a passionate kiss. She wrapped her arms around his neck and if there had been any distance between their bodies, it was now nonexistent.


"Albus, I think we should talk to them... Their relationship is not looking very normal!", Minerva whispered to Albus, who gave her a bright smile:"My dear, they are just fighting for fun, it´s a part of their daily basis. They are both dominant. Come on, let´s leave them alone now."
