Chapter 3: Dining

Day 2: Tuesday:

The Restaurant

After Lexi and Nick had met downstairs they had been told that today they were to all go to a fancy restaurant for dinner and dancing. So Lexi had sped back up to her room and changed into a blue ball-gown dress and curled her hair then tied it up in a high ponytail with a few curls falling on her eyes. The dress was low cut on her neck revealing a lot and fell to a few inches just above her finely toned ankles. Her tips were dyed sapphire blue as she had said. Then she had quickly dashed down to meet Nick in his tux.

From there they had taken taxis to the restaurant and were seated.

"You look gorgeous in that dress," Nick said as he looked her over.

Lexi blushed. Nick was so sweet! She wondered how Harry and Ron were doing. "Thanks. Same to you."

The two had to dine properly this time without their spoon fights and glass fights.

Lexi sighed. "It isn't fun without spoon fights."

"Yeah. But we have no choice so let's finish up quickly and we can go dance!"

Lexi grinned and began to gulf down the rest of her food. Once they both finished they raced to the ballroom as a new song began to play. Nick wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck, placing her head on his chest as both stayed like that swaying in each others arms.

The whole time, Lexi couldn't help but think who the real boy behind the mask was. What if it's a girl? She shuddered at the thought. No, it's definitely got to be a boy. But I wonder what house he's from...He sure is a gentleman. Maybe Hufflepuff...I can't wait to unmask him!

And at the same time Nick was wondering about her, too. She's so pretty. Can't be a Gryffindor. I hope it's a Slytherin. It better not be a Gryffindor or I think I'm going to puke once I realize that I kissed a Gryffindor. What if it's a...Ravenclaw? Or Hufflepuff? I hope it's a Slytherin. But she's so sweet and sexy! If it turns out to be a sweet and sexy Gryffindor Father is surely going to kill me. But it if it is, do I leave her when I unmask her? Or do I spend more time trying to get to know her? Father surely wouldn't allow it. But maybe Mother will.

The night quickly rolled away and everyone had to go back to the Hotel much to most of the students' dismay. But at the restaurant everyone had seen out of the corner of their eyes an unusual couple dancing.

"Lexi," Nick whispered in her ear.

"Mhm."

"Look to your right," he ordered. Lexi turned around and broke into silent laughter.

"Oh my God! It's Prof. McGonagall dancing with Prof. Snape!" a student cried out.

"Who would have ever thought," Lexi said.

"Not me," Nick admitted.

When the music stopped Lexi and Nick slowly unraveled from each others arms and as Lexi headed to the taxi Nick caught her arm and pulled her back.

"Where do you think you're going without a goodnight kiss?" Nick asked. Lexi blushed. He slowly lowered his lips until they met hers leaving her full of delight in the taxi ride back to the hotel.

That night all students went to bed and kept an eye on the two professors as they walked hand in hand to their hotel rooms.


A/N-I know it's really short and I hope you don't mind. It's not my usual style but I'm trying to aim for short, lighthearted chapters. If you want longer ones please state so in your review and I'll try to make them longer.
