Chapter 38

"This is not what I had in mind Alex." Severus said, slightly upset.

"What? I said something that took great skill and some time, did you misunderstand me?"

"You know that I did not realize you were talking of a game of chess."

"Do stop your moaning and take your turn."

"Wench." He said moving a rook to take one of her knights.

"Bastard." She grinned, moving a bishop to take the offending rook.

"Check." He smirked, waiting for her next move.

"Still as good as ever I see…" She quipped, looking carefully over the board. "Ah! Check-mate."

"And I see you're still better." He admitted, leaning back in his chair.

"Well chess was always my strong suit. You were gifted else where my love." She grinned at him as she crossed her legs, resting them on her desk.

"True." He said, walking over to her stealthily.

"Sev we have to go to lunch in a few minutes."

"I know that." He leaned down and kissed her.

"Don't start something that you won't be able to finish. After all there are so many buttons and so little time." She grinned, running her hand over the long line of buttons going down his chest and lover.

"Listen to your own advice." He warned, removing her hand.

"Very well then." She shrugged, folding her hands and resting them in her lap.

"Later." He leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"I suppose we should head off to lunch." She said, standing.

"If we must." Snape sighed before following her out of the room.

Sorry it's taken me a while to update I've just had my play for the weekend and was really busy and I've club meetings for school and all that happy crap. Thank God that Thanksgiving break is coming up soon. I need a rest.
