Part Six: Accept Sweets

A House Elf appears in my office around nine o'clock with an invitation to Albus' office. I consider declining before dutifully making my way to the stone gargoyle.

"Severus! Please, take a seat."

I sit.

"Lemon drop?" Albus holds out a bowl filled with muggle sweets. To refuse would be rude. I mind my manners around those who matter.

I mumble a thank you as I take one. The sweets themselves aren't bad, but I prefer chocolate. Sometimes Albus has different sweets to offer but they are never chocolate. Only Minerva ever offers me chocolate. I don't dare ask why.

It's fun being Snape, isn't it? I think he would disagree with me. –grin-
