The staff room was nearly empty when Minerva walked in and sat down in the empty green chair before thinking.
'Minnie, what are you planning to do with the rose you received earlier?' Albus asked standing by the side of the char smiling.
'I don't know' Minerva said she had not thought about it much.
'Well why don't you put it in a vase and pt it on you're desk?' Albus continued sitting down on the edge of the armrest.
'Any way around it?'
'No'
'Fine' Minerva finished returning her gaze to the window and Albus moved away to talk with the other staff.
'Minerva' Severus's voice called and for a second she wondered if she had started daydreaming about a former student of hers. 'Minerva' The voice called again more insistent causing her to look up at Severus who was standing above her his cold harsh black eyes trailed on her.
'Yes?' She asked still feeling like she was in a dream
'You're in my seat' He retorted. Minerva looked around for a second at where she was sitting before standing up and moving away. 'Delusional old coot' Severus hissed behind her back quietly so that she would not hear although her hearing was far sharper than it should have been and she hear him. Minerva continued moving from the room speeding up slightly as she did so. She could feeling tears pricking her eyes it was unlike her to be emotionally effected by anything that happened. She collapsed onto the chair in her study and glanced at the rose that she had left on her table.
'Accio Vase' She said waving her wand and grabbing the vase before it smashed on the floor. Her tears where flowing freely now as she placed the rose in the vase full of water.
'Minnie?' Albus's voice called from the doorway after knocking. Minerva didn't reply as Albus walked into her room looking concerned. 'Minnie what's wrong?' He asked walking up to her and placing a hand on her shoulder.
'No..Nothing' She stammered wiping away the tears quickly. Albus sighed and sat her down on the chair before pulling up another chair and sitting next to her.
'Minnie don't lie to me please' He said looking at her. Silence fell over the two as Minerva sat looking sat the floor she didn't want to tell anybody what was wrong with her especially Albus who would show only sympathy and try to find a way to make things right. 'I'm not leaving until I know what has upset you so' Albus said after a few minutes and Minerva sighed their was no way around telling the old headmaster so she told him everything that had happened and asked him not to try to help.
