"Lydia," said Snape, "leave us."

Lydia blinked. "o. . .Okay." she said sliding off the bed. She felt bad like she had done something wrong. On her way out she tried to see if she had upset snape in anyway.

Lydia glared at him before going to the medwing to see Snape. She looked worried. "Severus?"

"Yes, I can-and he didn't make me, I agreed myself." said Snape proudly.

Lydia nodded. "I would feel safer if you did." she sighed. "But be careful."

"You don't think I will? Do you think me a common fool, like that Potter?"
~Maybe we should wait for others to post..............it's become more of a carry-on fiction........~

~I think they've given up on it.~

"No, that's not what I mean. I don't think you're a fool at all." Lydia said looking at the floor. She hadn't meant to dis him.

~Hmm....indeed....~
Snape looked at her.
"I was being sarcastic."
