Chapter 9: The Date.

I guess you're just what I needed
(just what I needed)
I needed someone to feed
I guess you're just what I needed
(just what I needed)
I needed someone to bleed
(Just what i needed-The Cars)

The girls and Sybil met the guys and Snape at eight O'clock sharp for the date.
"All here good." Lily said once the door shut. "We have the date set up. And this is how the dare goes."

"We wait till after the date, they will meet us back here. Then we will ask questions about how they liked it, what they didn't like about, and if they kissed at all." At that Snape gulped.

"But we wont go on the date with you. We have to make sure that Regulus wont try anything stupid." Lily said grimly.

"Leave it to me." Sirius said nastily.

"Fine. At the end we-meaning the girls-will rate Snape between 1 and 10. And the guys will do the same for Sybil who ever has the higher votes meaning Snape and Sybil will win."
Everyone nodded.

"Alright let the dare and date begin!" Lily said happily.
Everyone stood up and headed for the door.

"Oh, hang on." Sybil said suddenly then she removed her robes to show off her dress.

"Whoa!" Sirius said staring at her, Remus smiled at her and Snape just stared.

"You could probably leave your coat here too." James said to Snape.

Severus took off his coat and laid it on a chair. "Lets go." Remus said.

They walked up to the stairs that led to the astronomy tower.
"Its open." Sirius said quietly. Snape and Sybil nodded and started to head up the stairs.
"Good luck!" Kirkley called to them.

"Whoa!" Snape said when he and Sybil entered the tower, "Its…"

"Amazing." Sybil finished for him.

The walls had sparkles and glowing gold stars covering them.
There was a table with a dinner set on it. The tablecloth was also gold. Their chairs had been draped in satin material. The colours were of pale green and silver for Severus and Pale blue and bronze for Sybil.

"Its beautiful." Sybil murmured. Snape nodded.

After they finished eating, music started to play; it was soft elegant slow music.
Snape stood up, so did Sybil,

"May I have this dance?" He asked. She giggled,
"Yes."

He took her hand with one of his own and let his other hand rest on her hips.
She smiled up at him, her eyes glowing. They started to move slowly around in a circle. He smiled down at her, and his eyes started to shine with happiness.
After two more songs he pulled her closer.

"Sybil…" he whispered but she placed a thin finger on his lips silencing him.
Then she placed her lips on his in a soft kiss.
The kiss lasted for a long time.

After the date they started to find their way back. As they reached the classroom they heard angry voices.
Then as they turned a corner they found themselves face to face with Prof. Troy. The potions master.
And she was beside herself with anger.

"HOW MANY MORE OF YOU ARE THERE OUT HERE TONIGHT?" she screeched then she realised
who it was, "Severus Snape! There you are! Do you know what day it is?" she asked in a quieter yet still angry voice.

"Yes." Snape said and he hanged his head.

"Tomorrow you are supposed to leave! And this is what you do! Break the rules."
"But Professor-"

"Not now Miss Evans."

"But professor-"

"I said not NOW! Miss Beige! And that goes for you too Mr. Black and Mr. Potter."

"Prof. Troy?" there stood the deputy head mistress Prof. McGonagoll.
"I have just caught eight, I repeat eight students out of bed at this hour." Prof. Troy said swiftly.

"Eight? There are only seven of us Prof.!" Sirius said loudly.
"I also caught your brother Sirius out wandering the school!" Prof. Troy said.

"Well I am afraid you will all have to serve detentions for this." Prof. McGonagoll stated, her nostrils flared.
"What about me?" Snape asked tensely.

Both professors looked at him with pity, "You will pack your things and get ready to leave." Prof. Troy said softly.

"NO!" Severus Snape screamed and he ran away form them as fast as he could.

"Get Filch the caretaker to find him." Prof. McGonagoll told her fellow teacher; Prof. Troy nodded and left right away.

"Now I want all of you, and I mean all of you to go back to your dormitories now." Prof. McGonagoll said in her strict voice.

"Yes professor." The all chanted then they all started to climb up the stairs back to their common rooms.
"What a perfect night." Sirius said sarcastically. "It had started out alright." Sybil said softly, she looked ready to cry.

"Was it nice though?" Lily asked quietly.

"Yes he was amazing."

"Did you too…did you kiss?" James asked.

"…Yes."

"So… who won?" Sam asked the group.
