Chapter 5 Flashback to last night.
As they talked about it Tom had a flashback of that night...
The five eleven year olds walked quickly through the halls, trying to be as quiet as possible. Justin was grinning from ear to ear holding a small bag in front of him, looking completely fearless. Bernadette kept looking behind them nervously. Millianon had her arms crossed over her chest and looked almost detached from the world around them, like she just wanted to get it over with. Tom was walking in front of the rest of them, obviously looking more confident then he felt. Suddenly he heard footsteps. He whipped around and whispered,
"Hide, get back, someone's coming."
They all feel back into the dark shadows of the walls, Tom steering Millianon by her shoulders gently against the wall and in front of himself. Millianon grabbed his hand and he squeezed it gently. Tom could feel Nick breathing right behind him and behind him was Bernadette then Justin.
The footsteps reached the corner they all had there eye on and turned it. The first thing Tom saw was a pair of sexy white high heeled, slouch stiletto boots, that had little pink butterflies hanging from them. Underneath were barely noticeable black stockings leading up to a nicely shaped-lose fitting sleeveless dress. It was a light pink color and matched the tiny butterflies on her boots perfectly.
Tom prayed they were covered in shadows as her face, which glowed, became clearer. Radiant, Beautiful, heart shaped, and acne free, her face shown through the gloomy semi-darkness of the dungeons. Nothing was down here except Proffessor Snape's rooms. What was this gorgeous creature doing down here?, and all alone too? The corners of her dark red lips were upturned in a smile, barely revealing her white teeth.
Toms silent question was answered as more footsteps came from down around the corner. She stopped, her perfect, wavy in all the right places platinum blonde hair was flung around behind her as she turned to meet the person that was coming around the corner quickly. They all went tense at the sight of Snape running up to the woman and holding out a black cloak. He opened his mouth which had something smeared over it.
"Monica, Here you left this." He said handing over the material. He looked like he was glowing, and he was SMILELING!
"Thank you Micheal." She said as she took the cloak from him her hand brushing his. She leaned in to him taking his arm as they kissed.
Tom felt Millianon start to shake in his arms. He wrapped his arm around her.
She whispered, "no, no, please, no..." over and over as the two in front of them started to kiss more deeply. They looked like they were in love. Tom wondered what the problem was until he thought of it. Snape was her father, what about her mother? Was this her mother? He didn't think she had ever mentioned her mother to him. He placed his hand over her mouth to stifle her no's, afraid that the two would hear.
They kissed for about five minutes moving against the wall opposite the five children watching. Tom made a wave with his hand to signal to the rest to follow him. Still holding Milly, Tom lead them quietly around the corner and down the next hall. The two had been in such a position they wouldnt see across to the wall opposite them, Snape pushing her against the wall. Tom couldn't understand why #1 Milly was freaking out, #2 A girl like that was even remotly interesed in kissing Snape and #3 Why was this turning into such an easy thing to do? They quickly opened the door to his chambers and found a place to hide until he came back. But they were totally screwed if Snape fancied getting anything from the closet before returning to bed.
"Milly, was that your mom?" Asked Berna tentatively, she seemed to have picked up that she wasn't happy about what they saw.
"No it wasn't." Milly answered quietly and curtly, "can we just get this over with? ... I want to go to bed." She added in a strained voice and Tom saw tears threatening to fall. Hoping the rest of them hadn't noticed or wouldn't say anything else he pulled her closer to him and she leaned into him.
"It'll be alright sweetie," Spoke Berna in a genuinely motherly voice, "this won't take long and then well go to bed."
"Yeah, this won't take long." whispered Justin.
Nick silenced them as the door opened and in came two people.
"Come on! Spend the whole night?" asked Snape in a nice sweet un-snapeish voice.
"Fine but I'm tired lets just sleep, and cuddle." She said hesitantly.
"Hmmmm, fine."
He and the girl crawled into bed and, thank god, didn't do anything but fall asleep. They had to wait for a half hour before they heard the two snoreing. It was safe. Nick was grinning again,
"Show time." He whispered as he opened the door and lea them out.He held the bag in front of him and the others gathered around it.
"Should we do the lady too?" Justin asked them.
Tom thought not but Milly whispered, "Yes."
"OK," said Nick through the tension, "lets do this then, hands in the bag."
They all put there hands in, except for Berna, and pulled out globs of shiny, flexible, slippery stuff: grease. It wasn't colored though.
"Your turn Bern, hey that rhymes!" Said Justin. Bernadette raised her wand along with Milly, "Ill help you start." "ok" whispered Berna.
"Numulus!" they both said there wands pointed at the two in bed it was a spell to make them numb so they couldn't feel what they were about to do.
As soon as the spell started to work they all got to work themselves.
Nick, Tom and Justin had all started to rub the grease into Snape's hair nice and good so it would stay in. Milly and Berna started to rub it into the girls hair. They rubbed the grease into there hair, faces, skin, and clothes. It was quite fun. Then they backed off to admire there work.
Milly raised her wand and muttered, "expando."
All the grease expanded until it looked like Snape and this Monica girl were lying in a huge puddle of it. Boy would they would love to stay and see the looks on there faces when they woke up.
Tom had a nasty feeling that Snape would find out somehow that it was them and kill them. He seemed to be able to tell if someone was lying to them. Tom had tested this theory earlier in class when he told Snape he didn't know the answer when he did, and he was really good at lying. Of course right after, Snape had taken ten points away from Slytherin for it but what he found out was worth ten points for knowing.
Thank goodness after all that they made it safely bask to the great hall entrance was were they all said good night and the parted ways.
