The sun was shining, making every student at Hogwarts who had chosen to spend the day outside. Alexandria had found her way to Hogsmeade, snuck out, disguised as a tourist. In the Three Broomsticks, she was calmly sipping a cold glass of cherry juice. She had enjoyed the day off in the little village doing some shopping and eating out, as she had no limit on her money, she always enjoyed spending her money on whatever she pleased. After sitting in the corner of the Broomsticks for a while, she saw a certain Professor entering the room, looking as though he did not want to be seen, hurrying across the main room to enter the ones in the back. Alexandria swished her wand and suddenly she was nowhere to be seen, even though she was heading the same direction as Snape before her.
She lost sight of him, and looked down the hall in front of her. Hmm... left or right? Then she stopped to listen after him. His low, monotone voice was to be heard to her right, so she silently followed the halls to a room where the door was left barely open, and she stood as close to the crack as possible, listening to the loow voices in the room.
"I assure you, my Lord, there is nothing to..." Snape spoke.
"Severus, I tell you what to do, not the other way around," a stern voice said.
"I am just assuring you that there are no candidates for you at Hogwarts, my Lord," Snape replied to the unknown voice.
A total silence followed in the room.
"Very well Severus, I will trust you on that. I know you could never lie to Lord Voldemort... I will leave you then, you keep your eye out for new candidates. It is nearly time," the unknown voice replied and as Alexandria realized who the unknown vioce belonged to, it was too late. SHe turned off her invisibility. He had already disapperated away, leaving Severus.
"I knew it! I knew you had contact with him!" she shouted accusingly at Severus. "You knew I was interested, because I told you! I told you I wanted to fight with him!" she went on, and Severus, taken aback by the unknown female in front of him, screaming at him. Alexandria realized that, and changed back to her own self.
"Alexandria!" he gasped at her.
"Oh get a grip," she snapped back at him. "You knew, all along, but yet you didn't tell him!?" she shouted in his face. "Don't. Keep me. From. My destiny," she spat at him angrily.
Severus then took a firm grip around her left shoulder, pulling her tight.
"Listen. Closely. Again," he told her in a low voice while crushing her shoulder.
She didn't even flinch at the pain he inflicted on her.
"This is no life for you. No life for anyone. There is no one... who deserves this," Severus uttered between angry lips, while looking at her with a fierce glance.
"Then why are you fighting all alone, Severus?" she asked him in return, in a whisper. Then she grabbed him by the neck and kissed him hard on the lips. Before he would even be able to kiss her back, she flicked her wand and turned invisible, running away from that room as fast as possible.
