Here goes the 2nd chapter... ;D
Chapter II:
Three days before the event, everything was OK. The only thing left was to determine how to put the two lovebirds together. Severus had succeeded in convincing Albus to go somewhere with him, dressed as a muggle, while Hermione had convinced Minerva to wear a beautiful green knee-length dress without sleeve and with a décolleté that showed a bit of her cleavage but not toomuch for Minerva wanted to hide her scars.
***********************************************
Minerva was becoming very, very nervous as time went by, getting closer to the moment Albus would stand in the treshold. What if he didn't like the party? What if he didn't like her dress? What if? What if?
"Don't you worry, Minerva, the moment he sees you, he'll be stuck to you", Hermione told.
"Thanks Hermione, this is really..."
But she didn't finich her sentence because in the treshold, Albus Dumbledore had appeared. Everyone cried: "Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!" and she threw herself into his arms before her mind could tell her not to do that. +He kissed her on the cheek and pulled back.
("My God!!! She looks so gorgeous!!! She's so beautiful!!!" he thought).
After evryone had happily told him "Happy Birthday", she led him to the table and everyone sat down as he blew the unique (but huge) candle upon the huge lemon birthday cake. Somehow, he knew Minerva had made it and he loved her even more for it. He had been in love with his Deputy ever since he had taught her into becoming an animagus. Minerva McGonagall was kind, caring, beautiful, witty,... and when she smiled, all his worries seemed to fade away.
But as much as he loved her, he knew he couldn't tell her... that would destroy their friendship... How could such a woman ever love him??? IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!
They had a quite tea, despite the cheerful brouhaha of the others. He spoke with Minerva and thanked Harry and his friends for having had such an attentionate idea.
"Actually, Albus, it was Minerva's idea" Harry replied with a grin. albus turned his head to her, his eyes twinkling madly... she was blushing and her cheeks had the color of two big tomatoes...
The karaoke went well as groups sang together "Barbie Girl", "Crazy in Love", "Asereje" and other funny muggle songs (I know these aren't very good but they were the first to come into my mind while writing, you decide who sang what ). And then, Minerva sang. Alone. Her eyes were locked to his. (the song is Humdrum from The Corrs).
Hey you're too true to be good
And I'm to bad to pretend
Transparent and transfixed, I'm uncool
Heart beat you're looking at me
Must stop I'm letting you see
This isn't how I want it to be
I have vision like no other
So romantic you'll discover
I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone
Fall sleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes
(I wanna)
This is every girl's dream
No milk left for your tea
Baby's crying louder than me
Who lost the keys of your car
Sorry that would be me
I'd wake up only I'm not asleep
I have vision like another
So romantic you'll discover
I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone
Fall sleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes
(I wanna)
(I wanna)
I have daydreams of another
So romantic you'll discover
I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone
Fall sleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes
Let me take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone
Fall sleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes
(I wanna)
(I wanna)
Did I sasy tha out loud ?

When she had finished, Albus just wanted to kiss her fully on the mouth, to tell her he wanted to let her 'cause he loved her and to show her how muwh... but instead, he took one of her small hands on his larger ones and kissed it lightly.
"This was beautiful, my dear."
"Thank you, Albus"She replied a light blush appearing on her cheeks. Before he could say anything else, she kissed his cheek, making HIM blush.
