Ch. 2 Lunch
"Alright then, lets see, ah, yes, homework. Look through you Defense with use of magical creatures and write me a brief summary as to why you chose this creature and would you like to learn more about it"
Half the class grumbled.
"I don't see why you can't do this. It's pretty easy unless you prefer a two parchment essay on tengas or something."
The class didn't say anything.
"I didn't think so."
Just then a loud ring ran through the school.
"Well off to lunch now is it?"
The class filed through the huge wooden door and set off to the great hall for lunch.
Meanwhile, Prof. Creylyn took a look around her classroom to find if there was anything interesting. She walked around the room twice before a little corner in the room became the center of her attention. She crept up to the corner, observed it for a minute, took out her wand and tap three bricks surrounding it.
Suddenly the center brick loosen and slid out like a drawer. She peeked into it and found what she was looking for. She picked up the small parchment, ready to open it, just when she was interrupted by footsteps. She quickly stuffed it into her robes, sealed the bricks shut and snapped around only to see Prof. Snape.
He had that same solemn expression that he gave to everyone, but the look in his eyes seemed softer.
"Severus?!" She cleared her throat, "What brings you back here already?"
"Tell me Charisma, what brings you back to Hogwarts." He asked emphasizing on the you.
She calmed down a bit, regained her composure and looked at him straight in the eye. "Isn't it a bit obvious?"
Prof. Snape didn't say anything.
"I was asked to come back to teach of course, as a favor for Prof. Dumbledore." There was the awkward silence.
"Well, I'm getting a bit hungry now and I think I'll be heading towards the great hall if you don't mind." It was more of a statement rather then a question.
She walked pass him and through the door she went. Prof. Snape's eyes followed her until she was out of sight.
He turned his attention to the corner that caught Prof. Creylyn's attention earlier. He stared at the bricks attentively for a few seconds and then whipped around to face the door to leave also but instead came across Dumbledore.
"Professor…" Snape acknowledge Dumbledore sternly.
"Severus, you do not have a problem with Miss Creylyn presence at Hogwarts do you?" He asked with that twinkle in his eyes.
"…No…" Snape responded knowing that the great Albus Dumbledore always knew more then what he said to know.
"Good. Now that it has been answered, would you like to join the rest of the staff for lunch? I insist that you do too." Dumbledore said cheerily and walked off.
Severus stood there for a few seconds before his feet decided to move. As he was making his way to the great hall he was clouded by his thoughts.
"I know wanted the job, why doesn't he just let me have it? But I guess Charisma is a better choice then the past choice." He shiver at thought of the other idiotic professor that Dumbledore had chosen in the past. " If not me, then I would have picked her too."
He walked into the entrance of the great hall and scanned the hall. All of the professors were sitting at the head table watching something that seem to have caught there attention. He turned to that direction to see Prof. Creylyn standing in between two boys who were no other then "that Potter Boy" and his own Slytherin student Draco Malfoy.
It seemed that she was trying to sort out another problem between the two and the other professors had liked to see how she would handle it and by the looks of it, she wasn't doing a very good job either.
Prof. Snape sneered at the though of Potter making another one of his ever so famous excuses. He walked over to them to see the problem himself.
"Prof. Creylyn you saw it, he waved his wand at the grail and it went floating up and spilled all over Ron's homework…" Harry protested.
"I did not do such thing, how dare you accuse me of such sorts." Malfoy argued.
Prof. Creylyn stood there to let the two continue to go at it and spill all the information, when she already knew what exactly had happened. Just then Prof. Snape walked up.
"Here he is, Prof. Snape tell Prof. Creylyn that I didn't do anything." Malfoy snickered, knowing that Snape would always take his side.
Prof. Creylyn turned her attention to Snape. "Mr. Potter does have a habitual habit of telling excuses and lies. Therefore I take ten points from Gryffindor for Mr. Potter had caused a disturbance."
Harry's face turned red out of anger. While Malfoy stood there grinning silly.
Prof. Creylyn smirked. "Oh contraire my dear Sever…urg…Prof. Snape, I had seen the whole thing and in fact that it is Mr. Malfoy who would be the one lying and that Mr. Potter was merely telling the truth."
Malfoy straighten up, eyes beaming mad like there were about to pop out. "That's a lie!"
"That is no way to speak to a professor." Snape snapped back. Prof. Creylyn stood there giving him the I'm waiting look. He knew what he had to do and he really hated doing so. "Ten points from Slytherins for disrespect to a professor."
Malfoy's jaw drop to the floor. Harry looked in shock. Prof. Snape had never taken points from the Slytherins, no matter how out of line they were.
"Well then, that settles it, back to your seats." Prof. Creylyn said and gestured them to go back to their house tables.
Malfoy walked back to his table mumbling something foul under his breath and as for Harry, he was just shocked yet extremely happy.
"Well…?" Hermione asked.
Harry was grinning cheek to cheek. "Snape took ten points from us."
"And what's that to smile about?" Ron asked looking confused while trying to wipe all the water from his homework.
"He also took ten points from Slytherins."
"What?!" Ron and Hermione said in sync.
"I'm definitely going to like having Prof. Creylyn around." Harry responded.
(AN) Well that's all for now. Hmm…I wonder what that parchment contains. How do Snape and Creylyn know each other. Does Snape really doesn't have a problem with Creylyn being around or does he. And what's does Dumbledore know that we all don't? Till next time…Cheers! .
