The first month, not much happened. Nothing with Severus or Lupin, to my disappointment, but I was hooking up with Draco and even Blaise a few times.
The last Monday of the month Dumbledore announced that we would be having a holiday ball in December. Pansy and I got really excited. Draco and Blaise both looked at me. I wondered which one was going to ask me./p
Back in our room Pansy and I started chatting about the ball.
So who do you want to go to the ball with Elle?" Pansy asked.
She knew that I was hooking up with both Draco and Blaise. I sometimes snuck them up to my room when she was in the library.
I don't know. Maybe I'll just wait and see who asks me first."

The next day I was in Potions, working on our assigned potion with Pansy while Severus walked around. He approached our table. He placed a hand on my shoulder as I was stirring our potion. My heart began racing.
"Try stirring it counter clockwise like this." Severus said softly in my ear.
He kept one hand on my shoulder and placed his other hand over mine and helped me stir. I could see Pansy out of the corner of my eye starring wide-eyed.
"Thanks, Professor." I smiled at him.
He looked at me and we stayed like that for a few moments. Pansy cleared her throat and Severus let go and walked away.
"What the hell was that?" Pansy whispered to me.
"I have no idea." I laughed.
We finished up our potions and handed in our samples. I walked up and gave Severus mine and Pansy's sample.
"Thank you Miss Green. Could you stay for after for a minute?"
"Sure."
"I'll see you at dinner, Elle." Pansy smiled at me and I rolled my eyes at her.
Once everyone was gone, Severus began speaking.
"Miss Green, I have noticed you have been doing extremely well on all of the assignments I give. You are very talented.
"Thanks. You really are a great teacher." I smiled sweetly at him and he smirked.
"I see you have a free period on Fridays right before this class. Perhaps you can come here and I could give you something more advanced."
"Yea I'd love to."
He smirked. I guess I might have sounded a little excited. Without even thinking I hugged him. Right after I wrapped my arms around him I was about to let go but I felt him wrap his arms around me, hugging me. I lifted my head slightly to look up at his face. He was looking down at me. Then he leaned down and I got on my toes and leaned in towards him. Our lips touched. I moved my arms and wrapped them around his neck. His hands moved down my waist and to butt. He then squeezed it and I gasped. Severus smirked and slipped his tongue into my mouth. We were snogging for what seemed like a while when he gently pushed back.
"You should get to dinner. I believe your friends will be wondering where you are." He said to me.
"Yea, you're right. I'll see you later Severus." I smiled and he smirked.
"Have a good night, Elizabeth."
