Spirit Week At Hogwarts
Wednesday: Rival House Day
~~~~~~~~~~
Disclaimer: see chapter 1

"Here you are, Miss Granger." said Snape. He handed a goblet full of vile looking liquid to Hermione.
"Bottoms up!" said Hermione.
~~~~~~~~~~
The Great Hall was full of noise and laughter. Pupils were happily commenting and jokingly insulting each other for looking like members of their respective rival houses.
Minerva McGonagall and Draco Malfoy entered the hall together talking and laughing.
This was quite a shock, especially to Minerva and Draco who were already eating breakfast.
There was a terrible ghastly silence.
"I didn't know you had a twin, Draco." whispered the ever-stupid Crabbe to Draco.
Minerva looked wildly around. Suddenly she noticed two chairs on the very end were empty.
Minerva scowled at 'Minerva' and 'Draco.' She knew who they were.
To the side of Minerva, Dumbledore was laughing.
"Albus!" reprimanded the Transfiguration teacher.
"Well, Minerva, you must admit it was a good idea for Rival House Day."
~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione looked out to the House Tables. The Gryffindors were dressed in green and silver, the Hufflepuffs in blue and gold, the Ravenclaws in yellow and black, and the Slytherins clad in gold and scarlet robes.
People were staring at her oddly. She loved it. Minerva/Severus was smiling at her.
"I hate to tell you this, but it's not the same, Severus." She said to him. "I just cannot confide in you when you look like McGonagall."
"Yes, well, looking like Draco is not becoming of you."
"At least it wears off in an hour!"
~~~~~~~~~~
"Detention, Ms. Granger!" Hermione was being her know-it-all self and looked smug about it. The Potions Master was not about to show her favor just because they were cordial towards each other.
"But Sev--" Snape's glare hardened. "But Professor!"
"What? One is not enough? Very well then," Snape sneered. "Detention tommorrow, as well. And ten points from Gryffindor."
Harry glared at Snape.
"Make that twenty points, thanks to Potter." Snape growled.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Stellar" Hermione said the new 'doorbell' (or wizard equivalent) password.
Severus opened the door for her. "Hello, Hermione."
"Why did you give *me* detention today?" Hermione asked him.
"Because you were being a smug little know-it-all." Snape said bluntly.
"Well, that's not very nice!"
"I know."
Hermione wrapped Severus in a hug. "You don't hate me do you, love?"
Snape rasied his eyebrows. "Of course I do, Miss Granger."
Hermione let go with a laugh.
"So, what is my punishment?"
"You get to grade the first year tests." Snape handed her a pile of parchment with a look of triumph on his face.
"I'm thrilled."
~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione stepped into the Gryffindor Common Room.
"So, 'Mione. Didja find out why that greasy git gave you detention?" Ron asked.
"Oh, that's just because he hates me." Hermione said casually.
"I thought you two were friends." Lavender said.
"We are, we are." Hermione said.
"I am so confused...." Harry said.
"C'est la vie," Hermione said and walked into her room to change for the game.
~~~~~~~~~~
" 'Mione, c'mon." Harry said. "Let's go!"
Hermione had changed into gold robes underneath a scarlet cloak. She joined her friends and together they walked to the entrance hall.
"You guys go on without me." Hermione said once they had reached the entrance hall. "I'm meeting Severus and sitting with the teachers."
" But, 'Mione!" Ron exclaimed.
"Hey, I sat with you durring the Gryffindor game, didn't I? Don't worry, I won't go cheering on Slytherin." She said, and then added. "McGonagall would have my head!"
"Blimey, Hermione! You don't fancy that git, do you?" Rons asked.
Hermione took on a dreamy look in her face. "Oh yes. Severus is the love of my life. He is my one and only someone. I shall die if I am to be parted from him." She said, extremely dramatically.
Just then Snape entered the hall. He offered his arm to Hermione. "Shall we be off, Miss Granger."
"You dont have to call me 'Miss Granger' in front of them anymore, Sevvie baby." Hermione said, slipping her arm into his. "They know were madly in love."
Severus laughed. "Yes, of course. Let's go, love."
"She was joking, right?" Ron asked.
"She is so weird, that Hermione." Harry said. "She has gone completely nutters!"
