Big surprise in this chapter! Go, read now!!!


"This is perfect, far more perfect than I would've dreamed it would turn out," Dumbledore said, turning to face McGonagall.

She frowned, "I really do not think it's polite of you to be watching them like this, Albus."

He turned towards her again, tearing his eyes away from the small television-like thing sitting on his desk.

"You are right," He said slowly, "but do you not understand how great it is to see that my little experiment has reached the two students in this school who would be so, what's the word? They are so different. Their beliefs, their families, almost everything."

"I really do wish you would stop calling it that," McGonagall said, frowning again. "I just don't understand how this whole love spell will really help with anything. The consequences are far greater than the results could ever be. When you lift the spell, none of these people will really be in love with each other. It will cause complete mayhem!"

"But my dear Minerva," Dumbledore said slowly, "What if I were to simply never remove the spell?"

McGonagall sighed and walked over to the window overlooking the grounds.

"But don't you see, Albus? Am I the only person in this room with any common sense at all? It's not right; it's not natural. You're denying these people the opportunity to find love themselves. You're denying those witches or wizards or even muggles that they would've fallen for the chance to be loved by that person," McGonagall said softly. "Some of the closest couples I've ever met didn't need magic to bring them together. Why should these students be any different?"

McGonagall had finished her speech. She decided now would be the appropriate time to leave Albus alone to think on that idea for a while.

Instead of thinking about McGonagall's speech, or even listening to it, Dumbledore was transfixed on the screen again:

Hermione and Draco, the most unlikely couple, kissing in the owlery. How sweet.


I know it's short but I couldn't think of anything else to add that fitted with this scene. Next chapter will be back to Draco's POV!!!!
