A/N: Another little piece for your enjoyment.
The Several Snogs of Severus Snape
Chapter 10: Nymphadora Tonks
"Is that the best you can do, Nymphadora?" The Potions Master sneered as he deflected her Locomotor Mortis.
It's Tonks, you wanker," the woman with purple hair shouted back, sending a vicious stinging hex that weakened Severus Snape's shield charm. She knew he was tiring from his heavy breathing. It matched her own. She needed to get the drop on him before this duel ran too long. It was time to throw a few non-verbal spells. She crept around the side of the overturned table while distracting Snape with a levitated pile of books hurling in his direction. He froze them and let them gently float to the floor unharmed.
"I can see now why you were banned from the Hogwarts library. Obviously you didn't use books for reading."
Her distraction didn't work out as she thought it would, and she quickly tucked and rolled behind an armchair as a stream of fire was sent her way. She hissed and padded out the flames that caught on the tail of her robes. This wasn't working quite how she planned. She needed to do something he wouldn't ever expect.
He was smirking and standing out in the open, knowing it would irritate her to see that she was the one who had to duck and dive behind various objects in order to fight him. She observed him for a moment as he stood gloatingly, before coming up with a devious plan. Hopefully Remus wouldn't be too mad.
She sent a few other hexes his way, just to give him no hint that she had another plan, and he deflected them with ease.
"I'm starting to grow bored. Don't make me come after you," he drawled, flicking his wand to move the chair from in front of her. She waited until the last second, before quickly charging him.
From his widened eyes, he obviously hadn't expected a physical confrontation. He was the greasy bat of the dungeons after all. He grunted at the impact on his midsection, wand still grasped in one hand as they fell back onto the threadbare carpet. Tonks noted his narrowed eyes and open mouth and knew he was about to curse her good. She did the only thing she could to stop him at this proximity: kiss him.
He struggled for a bit until her tongue slid into his mouth. At that he froze and Tonks pulled back, her wand trained between his eyes, a triumphant smile on her face.
"That was underhanded," he growled out, scowling.
Tonks huffed. Only Severus Snape would be pissed off about getting snogged.
"I'd say it was Slytherin-like," she replied with a smirk, "I won."
With that, she got up and flounced out of the Black library before he could reply. It was a bonus that he would have to clean everything up by himself.
A/N: I definitely would use that tactic as well, if I were her! Lol. I hope you enjoyed that.
