Chapter 22

SNPOV

She was teasing me. I know it.
One week she would be sexy and seductive stringing me along.
The next week she would be the perfect prefect acting as though nothing in the previous week had happened.

And then the cycle would repeat.

It was driving me insane.
And the fact that she was a 5th year student would get me sacked for sure and not just from my job.

SOPOV

I giggled to myself. He knew what was happening but he didn`t want it to stop. I could see it in his eyes.
He was going insane with lust.
My plan was coming along nicely.

Valentines day was coming up along with a dance. I had gotten my outfit and now was on to the second part of my plan.

I finished writing the letter and spritzed some of my perfume and kissed it with red lipstick and charmed it to stay.

I went to the owlery and sent it to him.

SnPOV

I looked at the owl that had settled itself on my papers. I sighed and took the note and it went off.
I opened the letter and blinked a couple times at what I read.
/Dear Severus,
I can`t stop thinking about you. The way you move. The way you speak in that silky baritone. It drives me insane.
I can`t hide my love from you any longer. I know you might reject me if I tell in person so I thought that I would write you this letter.
Meet me in the Astronomy tower after the Valentines day dance. Please consider my offer.

Yours truly,
Argus Filch/
I gaped. He even put a red lipstick kiss and perfume. I realized I still held the note and dropped it immediately sending it into flames.
I shuddered and got back to work trying not to think of ugh.

SoPOV

I stepped into the great hall by myself and looked for my friends.

I saw Suzie, Daniel and Penny. I walked up to them and they gasped.
I had on a red silk dress that was floor length. It had a low V neck and hugged my curves.
It was halter and showed a lot of back so I didn`t wear a bra. I wore a heart necklace and matching earrings.
My shoes were red heels that had laces that tied to the knee.
My hair was on top of my head and curls framed my face.

"Sonny you are going to win this bet for sure" Penny said. "Damn it. I am never betting against you again"
I laughed. Tonight was going to be fun.

I left my friends to get some punch. I noticed who was by the table and ignored him.
I heard an intake of breath.

"Hello Professor" I said turning to the shadows. I almost gasped when I saw him. Almost.
He was dressed in black dress robes with a red rose in the pocket. It made him look so muscular and handsome.

"Miss Munroe" He smirked noticing me checking him out. I blushed a red that matched my dress.

"Has anyone spiked the punch yet?" I asked making small talk.

"Not yet but I suspect someone will"
I made an "o" with my mouth.

"Hey Sonny" I heard. I turned around to see George.

"Hey George"

"Wow" was all he could say.

"Is that all you came to say?" I asked smirking.

"No...no" he spluttered. "I came to ask you to dance."

"Sure" I took his hand and he lead me to the dance floor.
As he spun me around I noticed Snape watching us. I winked in his direction.

"So are you still doing the bet?" George asked. I shot my head at him.

"What" I spluttered.

"The bet to seduce Snape?"

"Be quiet. I don`t want him to hear. It will ruin everything." I said.

"Okay how about we get really close. It might make him jealous" He said.
I considered this.

"Sure. Your not doing this for your own benefit are you?"

"No. Your like a sister to me. I`m doing this for 50 galleons"

"What are you talking about?"

"The 50 you`ll pay me once you complete this bet with my help"

"I see when did I agree to this?"

"Right now if you want to win 150 galleons"

"Okay" I sighed "but make it look believeable"
We scooched closer together as we danced. I heard footsteps behind me. I turned to see Professor Dumbledore.

"Would you care to dance Miss Munroe?" He asked with a bow.

"Of course" I said. A fast song came on and Dumbledore twirled me around the dance floor.

"Thank you Miss Munroe"

"No thank you" I went to go sit down with my friends but was interrupted by Fred who came and asked me to dance.

I danced with him for 2 songs then George interrupted and took me for four songs.
Then four other guys got me for a song each.
I had to excuse myself to get some punch.

"You are quite popular this evening aren`t you Miss Munroe" I nearly jumped out of my skin.
I had forgotten he was there.

"Yes apparently" I turned to him. "Would you care to dance Professor Snape?"

He stepped out of the shadows. "No thank you I must be leaving. Goodnight Miss Munroe."
I watched him leave the great hall and then followed him wondering if he was going to the Astronomy tower early.

I followed him until he passed the Astronomy Tower. I knew that no one was up there so I went up myself and did some star gazing.

Not long after did I hear the door again. I saw Professor Snape come through. He was dressed in his teaching robes and looked mad.

"Hello Professor" I said.

"Miss Munroe. Has Filch come up here?"

"No, just me and the stars" He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good. May I join you?" He asked.

"Sure" I shrugged my shoulders and continued watching the stars.

"Why are you so facinated with burning balls of gas?" He asked suddenly.

I was surprised he asked that. I shrugged my shoulders.
"I don`t know. I`ve always been interested to know whats out there. The way the stars burn so brightly is magical."
I gazed at the stars as I said this. "Why are you so interested in defence against the dark arts?"

"I want to teach kids to defend themselves. What is a potion going to do? Most times they have to ingest it to get a reaction"
I nodded.

"That makes sense" I looked at my watch. It was midnight.

"I best get going Professor. It was nice talking to you though." I walked to the door and just I was about to close it I looked at him.
"Oh and if I see Filch I`ll tell him your up here waiting. Goodnight Professor" I quickly said then practically ran back to my room.

I am trying to get this story posted fast so I can focus on my other stories and finish them so expect 1-2 chapters per week.
