You must get some sleep.

"Knock, Knock"

Albus Dumbledore looked up from his paperwork as he heard the light knock on the door. He knew it was her: Minerva McGonagall. He had been thinking about her for...the past twenty years. He was so tired, he had been working all day long and he needed desperately to rest. Maybe, Minerva would be up for a game of chess, she always was.

She was so bright, so clever and beautiful; she was gorgeous in fact, she was kind and gentle and...perfect. He needed her, he always had, he had just never told her that he did. He didn´t think Minerva would feel the same way about him...but he needed her so badly, especially at times like this when he was tired and hadn´t slept in aproximately two days; at this point Albus spent most of his time dreaming about kissing her soft lips. He wondered how she would react if he kissed her, she would most probably slap him across the face and never speak to him again, he didn´t want that to happen.

"Come in, Minerva."

She swept in gracefully and closed the door behind her. Ahh, she was always graceful and elegant. He particuarly liked the way she moved her hands when she spoke, those long hands of hers. She had an incredibly slender figure and Albus thought that she looked quite fragile and delicate.

"How did you know it was me?" she asked as she approached the desk and sat on the chair opposite his.

"I always know when it´s you Minerva."

She smiled at this, but suddenly, worry appeared on her face as she noticed his tired face.

"Albus, when was the last time you slept? You look exhausted."

Albus didn´t hear the question, for he was too busy admiring her beauty. She looked all the more beautiful when she was worried or angry, not that he wanted her to be, it´s just that her eyes looked so beautiful when she was...

"Minerva, you look beautiful."

Minerva stared at him for second, not quite believing her ears. Did he really think that? She sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Great, you´re also drunk." She said as she stood up and grabbed him by the arm to take him to bed. She pulled him upwards and started dragging him towrds his private rooms.

"You shouldn´t drink Albus, it´s not good for you." she complained, trying to hide the fact that she had actually loved Albus´ compliment.

"I´m not drunk Minerva, I swear."he said.

They reached the door behind his office and entered his private chambers, where a large bed was waiting for him.

When Minerva entered the room, holding Albus´ arm she was asaulted by a very strong scent of chocolate and sherbet lemons. She loved that scent because when she smelled it, it meant she was near him. She stood there, at the thereshold for a second and admired the room. It was not what she had imagined at all. She had always thought that Albus´ room would be full of purple and red or maybe blue, but she had never imagined it would be white. Everything was white, the courtains, the bed, even some pieces of furniture were white.

"Something wrong, my dear?" he asked Minerva.

She looked at him and smiled. Oh, she wanted to kiss him, she wanted to taste his lips and be in his strong arms, she wanted him. She was tired, tired of hiding her feelings for him.

"Albus, I need you," she whispered, suddenly realising about what she had just said. Albus´ eyebrows raised in surprise, but he didn´t have time to say anything because Minerva had already pushed him against one of the walls and was kissing him hard. This time, he didn´t have time to answer the kiss either, because, she pulled away too quickly. She looked into his eyes and caressed his cheek with one of her beautiful hands. He leaned into her touch.

So soft...´ he thought.

"Thank, you for saying I look beautiful," she said. Minerva gave a step backwards and looked down, as if she were ashamed of what she had just done.

"Minerva I-"

"Don´t, Albus, please, don´t." She cut him off, looking again into those gorgeous blue eyes, "Just get into bed and get some sleep."

In a second, she was gone, and albus didn´t follow her. He was tired and shocked about what had just happened. She loved him?

That night, Albus slept better than anyother night before, still feeling Minerva´s lips on his.

TBC.
