"Today, you will be turning rats into goblets. Points will be given for creativity and non-resemblance to a rat and points will be taken for inappropriate decoration, or resemblance to a rat." You know the spell, begin." Minerva told her class. They immediately began working. Severus appeared at the door.
"Come in," Minerva said. A few students looked up.
"Finniagan, if you do that to your rat again I will flay you alive." She said, and the students went back to work. Severus strode over to her desk, his black robes billowing out behind him.
"Hello, Severus. How are you?"
"Fine. How about you? Excited, I hope."
"why should I be?"
"Aren't you and Albus expecting?"
"Shh! How did you know?"
"I have a special relationship with our dear Poppy."
he said, walking past her chair.
"Strange. I usually have those conversations with the Marauders." she thought, sitting down.
"OW!" she screamed, jumping up from her chair.
"Is there something wrong, Professor?" Lily Evans asked.
"Professor Snape's brain." Minerva mumbled. All of the Gryffindors burst out laughing, while the Slytherins stared at them. Minerva guessed that she wouldn't be able to calm them down again, so she dismissed the class.
"Severus is sooooo going to get it!" she thought,and her trained ears heard a gulp from outside the door.
