A/N I forgot what I was going to write for this chapter so I hope this
turns out right!!!!!!!!
P.S this story does have a plot.
Chapter 5. Some fun
When Snape got back from the meeting he walked into the bathroom and stuck to the mirror, (with some kind of strange blue stuff) was a note. It read:
Dear Mr. Snape,
I know you don't like me very much and I don't mind. And I know you would rather me not seen or heard. So that is what I will try and be for you.
Signed
Ellen Grey. (The hired help.)
Good. Snape thought screwing up the note, she understands me.
The lack of light in her room and the fact that it wasn't the warmest place she had ever slept in made Ellen wake early.
As she walked briskly down she pulled a gray jumper over her head. Entering the Great Hall she was pleased to find that though she had woken early there were still quite a lot of teachers eating. Ellen sat down hoping to join someone's convocation. She took an apple from a bole in front of her. Ellen had always despised cereal she never ate it and if she did it was the chocolate kind and she used very little milk.
'How are you Miss Grey?' A woman started. It was the astrology teacher Professor Sinistra.
'Please call me Ellen.' There was an awkward silence. Ellen took a mouthful of what she presumed to be orange juice then spat it back into her glass disgusted.
'Ugh...that is awful.' Sinistra covered a smile 'It tastes like... cold, watery pumpkin soup.'
' It's pumpkin juice it helps fuel magical ability.' Sinistra said matter- of-factly
'Well it tastes like crap.' Professor Sinitra got a empty cup and pored some water into it. Ellen took it and sculled the whole lot in one go.
'Thank you, that stuff was awful. Do people actually drink it?' 'I guess different people have different tastes.' Ellen nodded wiping her mouth with her sleeve.
'My job is official today so if you need anything just press your stone and I'll come help you.'
No one seemed to need an assistant until the middle of the day. When the clear stone on her wristband turned orange. The orange stone was McGonagall's. Ellen went as quickly as she could up to McGonagall. When she got there she was disappointed that all she was to do was to deliver a note. The note was for Hagrid the giant man, all Ellen knew about him was that he was large and lived on the school grounds. Walking down onto the grounds Ellen took a small peek at the note. It wasn't very interesting; it was just something about the arrival of the first years. On her arrival she gave a load knock on his oversized door.
' 'Old on 'Old on she heard from inside. When the door opened she hardly got a word out of her mouth when a giant force knocked her to the ground.
'FANG! Get' off 'er!' Fang jumped aside and Hagrid pulled Ellen up with one hand. 'Err sorry abou' that. He likes people. He wasn't going ter hurt ya.' Ellen was still a bit shaken. She wasn't a fan of big dogs, since a great dine jumped on top of her when she was three.
'That's... ok. I have a note for you from McGonagall.' She rummaged though her pockets. It wasn't there. She looked around and found it crumpled on the ground. She smoothed it out and gave it to him.
'Cheers. Ah, hardly worth the paper.' He put the note in his pocket. 'Would you like a cuppa tea?' Ellen checked her wristband for any more jobs. It was its normal clear self.
'Err, ok I've got nothing better to do.' Hagrid, she thought, seemed nice enough. She followed him in and sat down at his big table.
'So?' He said putting a large cup of tea in front of her 'How are ya liking it here at Hogwarts?'
'Its alright very different to what I'm used to though.' She sipped her tea trying not to spill it down her front.
' Yeah... you're a muggle aren't you?'
'Err... yeah apparently so.'
Ellen was at Hagrid's for about an hour before another job came her way. It was from Professor Victor who is the Muggle studies teacher. He was very nice to her knowing that she was a muggle herself and he explained to her to a great extent what she was to do.
' Now take this letter up to the owlery.' He started 'do you know where that is?' Ellen nodded McGonagall had explained earlier.
'When you get there go and pick out an owl.' Ellen nodded again 'and attach it to its leg and tell it the address.' Ellen took the letter and thanked him for the directions and started off.
Ellen came around the bend from the owlery with feathers suck to her an hour later adding one more animal to the list of things that don't like her.
Somewhere around the third floor something hit her on the back of her shirt making it all wet. She spun around, and there floating in front of her was a mischievous looking ghost holding a water balloon in one hand and a bucket of water in the other. Ellen had no idea how to react to it was a very strange moment. Ellen stared blankly at the ghost, it laughed and chucked the other water balloon at her. Luckily, Ellen sensed this was coming and ducked. The balloon soared over her head and hit the wall with a splash. She straitened up and was about to duck around a corner when the ghost zoomed towards her and dumped the bucket of water on her head. The ghost cackled with laughter and raced off leaving Ellen sopping wet. She brushed her short blond wet hair out of her eyes and trudged back down to her room.
Down in the dungeons she nearly crashed into Snape.
'Miss Gray, I'm disappointed to see that on the first day you have already neglected your duties.'
'What do you mean?' Ellen said a bit confused.
'I mean this' Severus pointed at her wristband that had now turned black.
'Oh, I'm sorry sir.' Ellen decided to be as formal and matter-of-factly as she could be. ' I was requested to send a letter and it took a bit more time than I had hoped. I will attend to your matter in a moment if you let me get changed first as I have gotten a bit wet.'
'Well since I have been waiting for about three quarters of an hour, you should apologize, take the books I wish for you to return to the library then attend to your own matters. Because as I understand that is what you were employed for.'
'Yes, I guess you are right. But then again you will be sorry and miss me when I get sick and die from pneumonia because I walked around wet in this freezing castle. '
' I doubt that very much. Here are the books I wish for you to return.' Snape dumped them in her arms. There were three very thick leather bond books that were too heavy for her to carry. Ellen put them carefully on the ground then picked two of them back up and put them on the Severus's desk. The other two she left by her feet in the corridor
'What are you doing?' He asked
'Oh, the books are quite heavy and I can only take two at a time so I'll come back for the others.' Then quite to the surprise to Severus, Ellen started taking off her shirt.
'What on earth are you doing now?' Ellen stopped her shirt sticking up showing her belly.
'Well you wouldn't let me get changed and I support that, but it is annoying walking around wet when your carrying something. So I thought that I would just take off my wet clothes, do my job as you requested then get changed in my own time.' She smiled
'Just do the job.' He seemed angry and annoyed 'Frankly I don't care what you do.' And he walked away out of the dungeons.
'If your going past the library could you take these books back?' She yelled after him. He ignored her. She laughed and as quickly as she could went and got changed.
I'm sure if that is how to spell it but that's what my mum says.
Next chapter the plot gets moving again so.... Yeah
Oh I may have spelt Sinistra wrong Sorry
