Chapter 7 – Revenge is a Dish Best Served Pink and Frilly
Hermione couldn't wait for dinner that night when they had gotten to their quarters Seleeny had been placed in the bath while Hermione owled an old friend to come to dinner, then went and had a shower.
When she emerged from the shower she found a reply to her owl saying that they would be happy to come to Hogwarts for dinner. Then got Seleeny out of the bath, dressed and ready for dinner before leaving a note for Kwell who had been given the day off saying that she would put Seleeny to bed. With that out of the way Hermione sat down on the couch with Seleeny on her lap and read 'The Cat in the Hat' and many other children's stories until dinner.
Hermione and Seleeny were the first to the great hall and waited at the doors for her guest. He arrived five minutes later with a grin on his face.
"Hello Hermione golly good to see you how have you been? Hows Harry? Whats the news? Wh..."
"Enough, Hello Colin its good to see you too its been a few years hasn't it?"
"Yes It has"
Hermione's smile turned into a half smirk which drew Colin's attention.
"Right Hermione what have you got for me? The last time you invited me for a visit was when you wanted to get back at Malfoy by having me run a story on him having your name tattooed on his ass"
"Your so quick to jump to conclusions. What makes you think your here for a story?"
Colin stared at her in disbelief for a minute.
"Oh alright I happen to have something for you" she said giving in.
"I knew it" he exclaimed in excitement.
"Shhh"
"Sorry Hermione" he said to her hush.
Hermione motioned for him to enter the hall because students were beginning to show up to get their seats. They walked up to the head table and Hermione pointed out for him to sit on her right and Seleeny sat on her left. Most of the students and professors had arrived when Severus made his usual over dramatic entrance but instead of cringing in fear like they usually do the crowd of students began to laugh hysterically and some even fell off their seats to the floor.
Profoundly confused Severus made his way to his seat when someone familiar looking stood up then there was a few flashes of light and he was unable to see a thing. When his eyes cleared he walked the rest of the way to the head table and noticed the familiar person was sitting next to Miss Granger. 'How appropriate, it would be one of her friends wouldn't it' he thought angrily. After half an hour of the confounding giggling and pointing Severus had had enough. Standing her glared at the chuckling head table and hall then stormed out.
Albus turned to Hermione who was sitting two seats away.
"Your doing?" he asked blasted eyes twinkling.
Hermione just grinned and continued her meal. She had arranged to tell Colin the whole story in her quarters where no one could overhear and spread nasty rumors that could hurt Professor Snape's reputation before she did.
when Severus reached his quarters he relayed his password and marched through the door then into his study. 'what is wrong with the people in the school'. He went to his desk and started writing up next weeks lessons. When he was done a few hours later he stretched and ran a hand through his hair which collided with an object. Confused he went to his bathroom and looked in his mirror and nearly fainted when he saw the pink frilly hat from his games with Seleeny was still on his head. Then he remembered the flash from dinner, what could it have been. He was thinking about which of Granger's friends would flash people, when he finally worked it out he really did faint.
