Disclaimer: Totally don't own HP
AN: Well...I wasn't really all that motivated to write a new chapter since I haven't got any reviews...V.V...but then I saw there was a favorite on it! Yay! Thus, I cannot disappoint!
I'm not sure what I intend to write this chapter...let's see what happens...
Chapter 3: Advice
"What do you think, Miriella?"
There was an irritated sigh.
"MIRIELLA!"
The red haired girl blinked and looked up at the boy. "Crabbe?"
"It's not Crabbe anymore, would you quit it!" He growled.
"I'll call you whatever I please!" She snarled.
"ENOUGH!" Pandora Black snapped, looking up from her work. "Just continue, Vincent, have this argument another time, would you?"
"Fine." The boy mumbled, still looking disgruntled. "I said, if you were listening, Miriella, that I was worried about Snape."
"Whatever for?" She scowled."He looks fine to me."
"Oh, I bet he looks very fine to you." Kendra snickered. "As creepy as that is."
"SHUT IT!"
"Girls, please..." The boy sighed, "Not now."
"Oh, your one to talk! You just got done fighting with Miriella!"
Miriella rolled her eyes as the two got tangled up in a pointless argument. "Crabbe, what makes you think Snape is in any danger?"
"I didn't say I was worried for him." The boy frowned. "The last DE meeting I went to...Voldemort summoned him privately, and he left looking very disturbed."
She gave him a sardonic smile. "And, of course, it's completely out of the ordinary to be disturbed after having a private meeting with King Rottingfang."
"Miriella, this is different! He was really disturbed this time!"
"So? What's it have to do with us? Maybe he has to go torture some Gryffindors, or something?"
"Wouldn't that make him happy?" Kendra smirked.
"It's not that!" The boy growled. "I just know there's something weird about this one! Something Voldemort not only didn't want the other DEs to know, but me, either."
"Since you're his golden boy and all..."
"Miriella, would you just take this seriously for a moment!" The boy snapped.
"Fine, say there is something wrong...what am I supposed to do about it?"
"Check him out...find out."
"Excuse me?" She growled. "And what exactly do you think my relationship with him is? Because whatever it is, it's grossly exaggerated!"
"I mean with your spy stuff! Whatever you use to figure everything out!"
She rolled her eyes. "And who exactly will he be discussing this with, that I could overhear? Hmm?"
"I dunno...himself?"
She made a disgusted sound. "Forget it! Whatever it is, it is not our problem! I'm going to go study somewhere quiet, like the library!" She snapped, standing. "And if you're all still plotting against our Head of House when I return, I'm reporting you to the Headmaster!"
With a final huff, she picked up her books and stormed out of the common room, despite the protests of those in the room.

He gave an irritated sigh as she sat back against his chair. What in merlin's name am I supposed to do? I don't even know how to court someone who is not my student--and practically underage! Last time all I succeeded in doing was scaring the little twit!
He shook his head and leaned over his desk. "This is bloody hopeless."
"Not quite, Severus." A cool, familiar, voice cut in.
"Narcissa?" He blinked, looking up at the blonde Charms Professor. "What are you talking about? How long have you been there."
She smiled. "Not long. But the Dark Loard told me of your mission...apparently he was concerned you would not be able to do it correctly."
"As if I do not know how to woo a 17 year old girl!" He snapped.
"Apparently not." She said with an amused smile, sitting down. "How about I help you, by giving you a list of things to do, you follow it to the letter...and we pretend this never happened?"
---
Miriella frowned. So it wasn't just me...he IS off...what could be bothering him?
She shook her head slightly. I wish I could just ask him, like Crabbe implied...
She sighed. I'm being foolish. It's too late...I need to get to sleep. With another shake of her head, she turned and headed back to her common room.
I hope he's alright.
AN: Alright...another short chapter, I know! One of these days, I'll make them longer!
Yes, it is true, in the forum I go to(linked in my bio) Vincent Crabbe was adopted by the Malfoys, and Miriella never respects it, because she refuses to believe it. Also, Narcissa Malfoy is Charms Professor(It's a Slytherin run Hogwarts!)
Really, though...it would be nice to get some reviews for this...T.T
