Chapter 8:
Hermione sat next to Ginny nibbling on a piece of bacon. She was deliriously happy that Albus had let Ginny come back for the remainder of the holiday. She needed the distraction, not the Severus wasn't, it was just confusing with her new feeling towards him.
"Hermione, look at this!" Ginny ordered, braking her from her daze.
She glanced over at her, then in front of her where she was frantically motioning. A pile of magazines where scattered about. "What am I looking at?"
Ginny put the tip of her wand to the magazine in front of her, she clearly stated, "Exterate." Three beaded necklaces appeared on the table in front of them, but disappeared seconds later. She stomped her foot in frustration, "Argh!"
Hermione looked over the page and an idea popped into her head, she gestured toward it, "What exactly do you want out of this?"
Ginny's eyebrows screwed up in thought, "Um... those horseshoe charm necklaces, why?"
Hermione extended her wand to the magazine and enunciated, "Exterate Perme!" The horseshoe charms appeared and stayed.
Ginny squealed in glee, she handed one to Hermione and slipping on the other, before grinning, "To symbolize our friendship." Hermione smiled and hugged her before putting hers on as well.
The two girls sat quietly and skimmed through the pages, to see what else they could extract, when Dumbledore stood to talk. "For many decades, the girls of this school, have had little to do besides watch the Quidditch matches. Does anyone here have any suggestions on what they could do to occupy themselves with?"
Ginny shyly raised her hand, "I have a suggestion Professor Dumbledore."
Everyone turned toward her and waited for her to continue, "We could have a wizarding cheerleading squad for each house."
Severus gagged, before he could school his expression or thoughts, "That is really one of the worst jokes that I have ever heard Ms. Weasley." Hermione rolled her eyes, grabs a piece of Parchment and threw it at him, "Do shut up Severus."
The balled up piece of parchment hit him on the side of his head and then fell to his lap.
Sirius and a few of the teachers hid there smiles and their laughter.
Severus stood and glared at her, "That was uncalled for, you ignorant little brat!"
Hermione stood and faced him eye to eye, "Why do you always have to be such a prick to everyone! I believe that it was called for and if your expecting an apology then you might as well go an shag a hippogriff."
Everyone but the two arguing busted out laughing.
Dumbledore stood, "Alight children calm down. I believe Ms. Weasley has a point. Wizard Cheerleading it is and Hermione will be on the Gryffindor squad as captain."
Hermione turned beat red with burning anger, just to strangle the older man with sparkling bright eyes.
A smug look came over Severus' face.
"I'll inform Luna that we'll need someone to keep the girls in check."
The smug look disappeared from his face, "Albus I don't think we really have to involve my family do you? I'm already under enough pressure with... well you know!"
"Severus Raynaldo Snape! I'm surprised at your lack of excitement to see me." Said a strong earthy feminine voice from behind Hermione and Ginny.
Severus forced a stiff smile, "Luna, I see your hearing is still intact."
Luna Rosewood, Severus' great aunt had Elvin in her, as a result she could hear when her name was spoken, no matter how far apart they were. "Severus dear, its not something that can be changed it is in my blood remember?" She turned to face Dumbledore completely, "What was it that you needed old fellow?"
Albus laughed Luna had always called him that even though she was older then him. " Would you be willing to look over the house cheerleading squads?"
Luna nodded without hesitation, "Of course."
Albus' eyes glittered with joy, "Great I'll have your quarters ready after dinner."
Luna sat down next to Hermione and Ginny, smiling kindly.
Hermione, who had sat back down turned to return her smile, "Soooo... your related to Severus?"
"I'm his great aunt." Luna replied.
"What did you say his middle name was again?" Hermione questions a crooked grin slowly appearing.
"Don't you dare tell her!" He growled before storming off.
Luna laughed, "His middle name is Raynaldo. Is there any reason as to why you wanted to know?"
Hermione shrugged, "Only to torture him with."
