I have the computer back! I'm so happy. Sorry it took so long.

A Teenage Romance

Chapter 6

Minerva had begun to act normal around Albus again, which seemed great at first. Snape sat at his desk, not able to mark any essays. He took a drink of his tea, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. It had been a two months and Albus and Minerva couldn't even stay in the same room without fighting. Snape began to think that because of their difference as children they might not ready to be in a relationship. Maybe he shouldn't have made that potion and should have given them liquor for their anniversary.

Minerva had also started a lot of trouble and just recently spending a bit too much time with Fred Weasley, which was defiantly not good! Poppy had said that Albus was jealous. It was so much harder than what Severus had thought. It was easy to keep the Ministry at bay but it wouldn't last forever. Albus and Minerva had to hurry up and get this stupid romance started before Severus lost his mind.

"How many times is this now Alex? Sixteen?"

"It was the twenty-third time."

"Why don't you just give up? You're not going to win."

"Maybe I like spending time with you."

"Even while losing."

"It takes a real man to lose."

"And even a bigger man to lose twenty-three times." Minerva smiled

"Don't rub it in."

"I'm only complimenting you."

"Well I thought you didn't like me."

"Doesn't mean I can't compliment you."

"Do you enjoy messing with my head?"

"Yes. Especially since there isn't much in there."

"I beat you by two questions on are charms exam last week."

"And i got three more questions than you in Herbology."

"You always have to be one step ahead of me don't you?"

"Not always. We both know you can beat me when it comes to sugar intake."

"True."

"So I was wondering if it was possible for you to join me at the Quidditch pitch."

"Do you have brooms?"

"Actually Madame Hooch told me we could borrow two brooms."

"She told you we could that?"

"Yeah. She said not to get caught."

"Hooch? That sounds familiar."

"Maybe because she is the flying instructor here?"

"No. I think I knew someone that was named Hooch... What is her first name?"

"I'm not sure. But will you join me on the Quidditch pitch?" Minerva thought for a moment.

"Umm..."

"I won't make any moves on you and I won't accidentally touch your arm to make you tense."

"Very funny." Minerva blushed making Albus chuckle.

"Please." Albus gave his best puppy dog eyes.

"Alex you know you can't do that."

"Is it making you cave in?"

"Alex, stop it."

"I promise that I won't even start a game of tag." He went on one knee and took her hand making her tense. He smiled. "Please."

"This has gone far enough!" Filius said as he walked into the staff room. Poppy, Severus and Pomona looked up at him. "Minerva is driving me insane. Today she removed two of my books from my chair and I felt like an idiot not able to look over my podium."

"Filius I don't think Minerva would do that. She's more about the original jokes not something to anger you."

"Aunt Minerva is out of line. Today she used her wand to loosen my chair and so when I sat I fell." Andrea sat down by Poppy.

"See she would be evil enough to remove my books."

"Filius that's completely different." Severus smiled.

"How so?"

"Minerva absolutely hates Andrea."

"And I'm family."

"Well dear she doesn't know that."

"Severus what are you doing?" Poppy noticed that he was smiling wickedly.

"Nothing." He covered his paper and smiled.

"Severus, give me that."

"No." He took the paper and held it away from her in the air.

"Got it!" Filius laughed.

"How did you get it?"

"I might be short but I am wonderful when it come to levitating." He smiled and gave the paper to Poppy.

"Severus!" She yelled with excitement. "He drew a picture of him and Rolanda laughing at Harry as he fails to do a stunt on his broom."

"You need a hobby." Pomona giggled.

"You're actually really good. But why does Harry away have to fail or die?"

"Give it back!" Severus lunged himself at Poppy. He took the drawing and stood up.

"What's going on in here?" Rolanda walked in, her broom in her hand. She saw Filius and Poppy on the floor both laughing. Pomona was ready to attack Severus, who had a piece of paper in his hand. Severus jammed the paper in his mouth.

"Noffin." Severus said.

"Okay well I'm going for a ride. I'll be back at dinner. I thought you would like to know that Malfoy was the one that removed you books Filius. I heard him telling Crabb about it and I told them to see Severus after dinner."

"Thank you Rolanda." Filius smiled.

"Fank Yo" Severus smiled. Rolanda looked at them all strangely and left the room. "Where were we?" Severus said taking the paper from his mouth. He then feel to the ground being attacked my Pomona.

Minerva chased after Albus. He was stalking away down the hall. Minerva grabbed his arm at the stairs. He turned around and looked at her. His eyes were not twinkling and he was red in the face and he looked into her eyes.

"It wasn't a kiss!" Minerva yelled.

"Your lips clashing with Fred's lips are most certainly a kiss!" Albus head up the stairs. Previously during breakfast, Minerva was walking towards Fred and unfortunately she had fell Fred was there and so their lips touched for oh about two seconds before Minerva pushed away.

"Alex please, I fell!"

"Oh sure!"

"Why do you care?"

"Why do you care that I care?"

"Because it was nothing!"

"Then prove it!"

"How can I prove that it was nothing?"

"I don't know just prove it."

"You want me to prove it?" Minerva smiled.

"Yes."

"Okay then. Pucker up."

"What?" Albus must have heard incorrectly.

Minerva grabbed Albus and kissed him.

"How's that?"

"Um. I." Albus said, his face turning red.

"Now your speechless? I should have kissed you a while ago then." Minerva began to walk away.

"You can't just leave after that kiss."

"Oh and why not?

"I'm not finished." Albus pulled her back wrapping his arms around her and she wrapping hers around him.

"Woo!" They backed away from each other looking to where the noise came from. Poppy Pomfrey stood there smiling and then covering her mouth. "Um..." She uncovered her mouth slowly. "That kind of behavior is not acceptable." She stood there awkwardly before she hurried away to tell Rolanda.

"Are we going to the fly today." Albus said taking her hand.

"I have a better idea." Minerva smiled.

"It worked!" Severus yelled with enjoyment. He stood up and ran around.

"Did you hear that Rolanda?" He smiled. "It worked!"

"Yeah, yeah. Congratulations." Rolanda tried to hold back a smile.

"I got to tell Filius." Severus ran out of the room.

"He doesn't know does he?" Poppy asked.

"That Minerva kissing Fred was not just your ordinary accident?" Rolanda smiled. "Of course he doesn't know."

"Men are such idiots."

Hehe :]
