(A.N- okay guys this chapter has a lot of P.O.V change. - this resembles every time it changes.)


Finally it was the 20th of August. She was going to meet him. HIM!!! She was so nervous. She took a day off and went through all her Transfiguration books from grade one to seven in one day!!

What should I wear? She went through the cupboard in her quarters twenty times and finally found something modest at the same time that showed her curves.

(A.N.- If y'all wanna see my choice for dress you can checkout Wattpad or Ao3. link in in previous chapter.)

She collected her NEWT marks, her extra achievements, not that she needed all of that. It was Professor Dumbledore who helped her with all that, he already knew all that. These were just for formalities.

She took all of what she needed and set off to Hogwarts.

She apparated to Hogsmeade. Hmmm she could smell butterbeer. Must come back after the interview. While she walked she pondered about what to do. She was nervous about meeting him. It was a very strange way to depart from high school. Kissing your teacher good-bye!!

She walked towards Hogwarts with nervousness increasing with each step. Finally she reached the gates. Someone was there, she didn't recognise the man standing there.

As she approached him, he asked in a kind voice, "Are you Miss Minerva McGonagall?"

"Yes Sir, I am."

He opened the gates and ushered her in and closed the gates behind her. He started walking and motioned her to follow. "The headmaster had informed, oh no kindly requested me.- He is way more kind than the previous headmaster and down to earth- Do not tell anyone I told you that." Minerva smiled, she knew you cannot find another gentleman like Dumbledore.

"So he requested me to wait here for someone named Minerva McGonagall, he also told me not to return if you didn't show up. He told that part sadly. Are you someone close to him" Minerva didn't know why he would feel sad.

"No sir I am here for the interview, the Transfiguration teacher's post."

"Hmmm, curious." He replied.

She chose not to reply to that.

They reached before the statue that led them to the headmaster's office. Her heart was beating so loudly. They knocked and waited for a reply. "I'll leave you here Miss. Sure your special, because all other candidates have already tried and yesterday was the last day. All the best." He smiled and winked at her. She blushed and bowed little.

Then the door opened. There he stood not a day aged since she last saw him. She couldn't move a finger. Oh Merlin, why was she acting like a love sick teenager.

He chuckled at her stunned state. Thats it, his chuckle killed her.

"Are you planning to stand there and stare at me the whole day, Miner.. va." He said her name slowly as if he was testing it.

She mentally kicked herself for gwaking at him like that. She cleared he throat and said, "Of course not Professor Dumbledore, I was merely uh, collecting myself before meeting my former professor and if everything goes right my new boss."

"Minerva, uh, am I allowed to call you that?"

Why she still calling me professor ? Does she want me to call her Miss? Was she still Miss? Does she still feel the same way she felt when she was seventeen? He had so many questions on his mind, but was brought back to reality when he heard her voice. "Of course, Professor. You can call me. I'd rather prefer you call me by my first name and not Miss." He was relieved by that, but there were still many questions that he would find out later.

He smiled and replied. "Then I insist you call me Albus. You just said I was your former professor, didn't you? And now that everything is going well and I will be your boss, please call me Albus."

She was surprised by what he just said. He wants me to call him by his first name? Wait did he say that I got the job???

"Wait everything is going well? You mean I got the job? Aren't you going to interview me or something?"

He chuckled at this and said, " I think everything is going all right and yes you got the job and you are the new Transfiguration Professor of Hogwarts. And no I am not going to interview you, because I am more than aware that you are more than qualified for the job. I was actually thinking you wouldn't show up because I heard from my contacts at the ministry that you were doing very well in your present job and you looked rather happy in that place. "

"Rather happy?? Like seriously rather happy. Those people don't know how much of stress I undergo every minute I spend there. Every where I go they discriminate me for being a witch. 'Minerva I don't think this is safe for you, I don't think that a witch can do this, can do that blah blah blah.' Honestly Albus, I was so happy when you sent me a letter offering the job. Trust me, I only stayed there because I didn't get any other job and I can't live with my parents. My father is trying to get me married to any pureblood that has money. Merlin help.." She stopped when she realises she was rambling. Merlin's balls!! That's embarrassing Minerva. Fuck!!!

Albus just looked at her. Okay, She has a lot going on her mind.

He smiled, "Minerva if that's the case then I'm honoured to have such a talented, beautiful and fierce lioness teach my students here."

"Oh Profes.."

she was interrupted by him saying,

"You just called me Albus, Minerva. Please don't go back to professor. I actually liked th way it sounded when you said that." Great Al, creep her away by saying all this.

Did she?? Oh.. If she blushed when he called her beautiful and a lioness it was nothing compared to how she looked now. "Uhmm, I am very grateful for what you think of me Al.. bus." Phew that was tough. "Thank you so much, you don't know how desperately I was wanting to move from there. Thankyou again Professor. Oops sorry, Albus."

He smiled she looked lovely, and the dress she was wearing. Hmmm he could do anything to see her in these kinds of dresses. She had surely grown into a woman. Beautiful. Her hair had grown. She was thin but not lean. She had right amount of flesh at the right place. Her breasts were an asset. Stop Al, thats perving.

"Minerva there's something else I wanted to ask you. I know it would be too much but I don't have any other option. Will you also take up the position of Head of Gryffindor. I know I am asking a lot. You see I was the head, the deputy and the professor until I got promoted, I have asked a colleague of mine to take up the deputy headmistress's position but she is a Hufflepuff, I surely can't ask her to be the Head for Gryffindor. So please can you? "

Minerva was dumbfounded, "Albus are you serious? Like really your offering me that position in my first year of teaching here? Merlin I think my destiny just won some jackpot. Albus I am honoured to be the Head."

Albus chuckled, "Then Professor McGonagall, allow me to show you your chambers." He stepped forward, gathered all his Gryffindor courage and lent her his hand.

She blushed when he called her Professor and even more when he offered his hand. She slowly slipped her hand in his and said,

"Thank You Headmaster. Oh, by the way, congratulations on getting promoted as the Headmaster, Albus."

And both off set together, knowing something is going to change in both of their lives.
