1# Bubbly.

Three people, more specifically the Golden Trio, sat on the floor with a bottle with an undisclosed substance placed in the middle in the table. Two of the three were trying to convince the other that what she was about to do was a very, very bad idea. And the other one, she didn't want to listen.

"Hermione, don't you think this is a bit … um, drastic?" Harry asked, though he already knew the answer to the question; once Hermione Granger had set her mind on something there was no stopping her.

"No," she replied, already bored of the conversation. They had had it once before, yesterday to be exact, and it hadn't changed anything then, so she didn't see why having it again would change anything now. Anyway, it was too late. Her plan was already in motion. The bottle in front of them was just a decoy.

"Just think for a minute, if he finds out-"

"He will," she said, smiling.

The boys looked at her, shocked.

"And you're okay with that?" Ron asked, not quite believing what she had just said.

"Do you really think I'd do it if I wasn't prepared?"

"No, we don't, but still … are you sure?" Ron asked, hesitantly.

"Yes."

The boys looked warily at each other, both thinking exactly the same thing: God help Severus Snape.


A few hours later.

Hermione had been sitting in their chambers reading the latest Potions Monthly when it happened.

"Hermione Jean Granger! What have you done? This isn't my usual … what the …," Severus trailed off, and then started to curse, in a variety of different languages.

Tears of mirth fell from her eyes as she listened to the unintelligible curses coming from the bathroom. She suspected the reason he had yet to storm out of the shower demanding her hide was that he was trying to wash it off. Well, he was going to have a fun time attempting that; the body wash had a temporary sticking charm attached to it, which would dissolve after the other charms took hold. It had been a difficult charm to apply considering the viscosity of it, but she'd managed it.

"Oh Severus, if you play with fire you are going to get burnt. That's what you get for vanishing all my pairs of tights," she mumbled, turning the next page of her journal. He couldn't he could hear her, of course; he was still in the shower.

"BUBBLEGUM! PINK BUBBLEGUM BODY WASH! HERMIONE!"

Ahh, he had figured out the scent. That set her off in another fit of giggles. Her stomach cramped painfully as she tried to remember to breathe normally through the laughter.

He also might have figured out that as well as making him smell like bubblegum for the day; the bubbles contained a colourant that dyed his skin … temporarily, of course, she wouldn't want him dyed pink forever, but if he hadn't she would let him find that out for himself later.

Ohh this was going to be fun, she thought after the laughter had subsided, very fun indeed.
