Was McGonagall really mad or maybe jealous?
After breakfast the Gryffindor students were sitting in the common room trying to figure out what was going on with their professors? They, like most of the other houses were shocked and puzzled by the curious actions at the ball. Some were not as amused as others. So our heroes called a meeting of the minds to figure this out. So there in the Gryffindor common room they met. So they met with Fred, George, Lee, Katie, Ginny, Seamus, and Parvati. Ron and Hermione were playing chess, Fred was sitting watching Hermione lose. Ginny, Seamus, Lee and Katie were sitting on a couch. George, Parvati and Harry were sitting on the other. Suddenly a little first year named Milton ran into the common room in tears. He quickly relayed the story to the others. The older students comforted him by telling him it wasn't his fault. He then retreated to his room.
"First of all did everyone see what happened at the ball last night?" Lee asked starting the discussion. Harry looked up from his quidditch playbook.
"See what?" he asked.
"Snape last night. What were you doing last night?"
"Dancing," Harry blushed; he then looked over at the portrait hole where Colin was entering. "Colin you can sit next to me." He blushed moving over to make room on the couch. Colin turned pink as he sat down next to Harry. George glanced down Parvati and they shared a knowing smile.
"Well Harry, last night at the ball Snape got dared to do something and then he …"
'Assaulted Professor McGonagall!" Hermione said interrupting George. "He assaulted her."
"He kissed her in the middle of the ball. He didn't assault her." Fred finishes George's train of thought.
"Then he left with Professor Sinistra," Ginny recalled.
"She was giggling insanely and Snape did drag her out of there in a big hurry with what almost looked like a smile," Seamus said adding his two cents to the conversation.
"Then they both coincidently arrived late to breakfast…together," lee comments grinning like a madman.
"I bet they did it" Parvati giggled.
"Did what?" A very confused Colin asked.
"You know had sex," George responded waggling his eyebrows, before his girlfriend could answer Colin's question.
"Oh," Colin said sheepishly as he buries his head in Harry's shoulder.
"McGonagall looked pissed at breakfast this morning and she tried to talk to him but he snapped at her." Katie remarked before she grabbed a piece of parchment and a quill from the table.
"I bet McGonagall was just jealous," Ron commented looking up from the chess game.
"That's disturbing Ron," came the indigent response from across the chessboard.
So… lets figure this out," Fred said not wanting they two of them to fight over this, "what do we know."
"Lets stick to the facts," Katie said always being the practical one, "lets make a list." Which is exactly what they did.
