Chapter 13 (Valentine's Day)

Zoey sat silently while Madame Pomfrey looked in her mouth. "How did you get these cuts again?" Madame Pomfrey asked.

"Ummm," Zoey held up some small sharp rocks. "I thought these were rock candy, and I kind of chewed them."

"Mmmmmmm hmmmmmmm," Madame Pomfrey sounded like she didn't believe it, but she asked no questions.

After a while, Madame Pomfrey stood up, "Okay. You're all fixed."

"Thanks!" Zoey raced out of the room into the hall.

Zoey hid behind a statue as Umbridge walked past. "What's this?" Umbridge picked up a pink scroll with roses around it addressed to her. She opened it and it said:

My Dearest Darling Dove Dolores,
From you luscious, flowing chocolate brown hair to your dazzling glittering gemstone eyes, and your intriguing figure, I just can't get enough of you! You have the face of angels, except better, and your personality is enough to make me sing! I may have not shown it before, but I have been stark raving mad infatuated with you ever since I lay my undeserving eyes upon your beautiful person. But then I was afraid to let out my true feelings, but now that fear is melting from your eternal hotness. I love you my little kitten.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

~Your Darling Teddy Bear Severus

Zoey chuckled as Umbridge held the letter to her chest and let out a sigh. Snape walked by, going the other way.

"Oh Severus!" she cried and ran up to him. Snape's expression was of the utmost surprise and disgust. "I knew you loved me too!" she cooed, hugging him.

"What?" he exclaimed.

"This letter you gave me Severbear," she explained. Zoey tried her best to keep from bursting out laughing.

"I did no such thing," he said, pushing her away. "And don't call me Severbear."

Umbridge's face fell. "What?" She shrieked. She slapped Severus and stormed off, screaming, "I'm going to get who ever did this!"

Zoey stood up and tried to walk away as if she just passed, but Snape turned to her.
"Where are you going?"

"To Hogsmead?" Zoey offered.

"No you're not," Snape growled.

"But I was looking forward to..."

"Now miss Black!"

"Alright," Zoey mumbled, following Snape to his office.

Zoey sat down in his office, trying to disable some magic tricks from Fred and George's stash, while Snape watched satisfied.
