CHAPTER TEN: Rendezvous After Dark
Harry and Mystyk continued to meet every night under the watchful eyes of Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape. They wanted to be on alert at the very first sign of trouble.
Snape and McGonagall were tempted to mark off points against each student the first time Harry and Mystyk snuck out, but Dumbledore stopped them.
"Let them have some fun." he told his Potions teacher and Transfiguration teacher before they stormed out and put a stop on Harry and Mystyk's fun.
"But Professor, they are breaking school rules!" Snape argued.
"And they are also teenagers, Severus. Let them be." Dumbledore pointed out.
"You are so lenient to these brats, no wonder they run amok." Snape hissed, clearly not impressed with Dumbledore's decision.
Since then both professors--along with Dumbledore--kept a close eye on Harry and Mystyk whenever they ventured out into the night. So far nothing bad has happened, and they liked to keep it that way. Of course they couldn't really count on keeping a clean streak for long.
Harry and Mystyk grew closer after that night they first flew together. Neither mentioned anything about the kiss they shared, but every time they looked at each other they knew and they remembered all to well the feeling each ignited into one another the moment their lips touched.
When snow started to cover the Hogwarts ground, Harry and Mystyk agreed to meet somewhere away from the castle and just talk. On clear nights they would mount their brooms and hover over the ground carrying on with an animated discussion, sometimes they would fly around with the snow when it wasn't blowing too hard and visibility is still normal. They would talk for hours on end, sometimes staying up later than necessary (the latest being 3 o'clock in the morning), immersed in each other's story, unbeknownst to either one of them that they were being watched--by more than just the usual three pairs of eyes that kept a close vigil on the two of them. The fourth pair of eyes studied the two students more carefully, making mental notes on what their weaknesses are, avoiding to be seen by the Headmaster and the two students' House Heads.
