"Minnie-kins?"
-retching sound-
"Tabby?"
-cough-
"Minerva?"
"Yes, Albus?"
"I have a toothache."
"Small wonder, after you ate seven whole bags of lemon drops!"
"I couldn't resist!"
"The extent of your willpower is really marveling, Albus."
"Minerva, my tooth…aches…really…badly."
"Have you tried asking Poppy for aid?"
"She scares me."
"Your point?"
"I want you to help me…"
"I am NOT a healer, Albus."
"You scare me."
"I am flattered that you still would like my assistance even though I terrify you."
"But I love you."
"Okay, let me see, Al."
"Ahhh, ower heah, Minerwa…"
"Oh dear Merlin, I see it. A huge, monstrous…"
"Wha?"
"Terrifying…"
"Minnie!"
"Enormous…"
"Wahhhhhhhhhh!"
"Cavity."
"What?"
Minerva muttered a spell and the cavity filled itself.
"At least I know that much."
"Thank you Minerva!"
"You're welcome, Al."
Minerva straightened up and swept her clear, bright-green eyes across Albus' twinkling blue ones. The latter pair was looking at her with a tender, almost child-like innocence. When Minerva smiled, a bright twinkle appeared.
"Oh Albus, there's something in your eyes…"
"Oh really?"
Albus blinked and rubbed his eyes.
"Oh dear, it's still there."
"What is it?"
Albus' voice rose an octave and he clutched Minerva's pale hands.
"Sweetheart, open your eyes a bit more," Minerva said softly.
Albus' eyes bugged out, he looked even madder than Minerva was used to seeing.
Minerva locked her gaze onto her terrified husband and he started hyperventilating.
"Is it still there, Minerva?"
"Yes…"
"What is it?"
"It's hard to describe… it's more like it's coming from within your eyes, you know?"
"AM I GOING BLIND?"
"You're going to make me blind," Minerva muttered, but Albus did not hear her; he was busy hyperventilating.
"Hmm, a twinkle here in the right eye, a bright light in the left," Minerva mused. A small smile broadened and she pressed her lips to Albus' cheek.
"Mmm, you scared me, Minerva."
"Your eyes are twinkling, my love."
"Because I'm with you."
