A Sticky Rat Tale [COMPLETE]

First Date - Dazzled

Hello, my name is Miniala and I am a single kitchen rat at Hogwarts. Usually rodents of my species live no more than a couple of years, so when I saw a nice, chubby and bewildered rat, I jumped right at the chance, who knows when I will meet again such a fine match.

"Ouch!" He tweeted as I leaped on his back from the kitchen stove "You're hurting my tailbone, what are you doing, you crazy rat?!"...

"Crazy about you!" I flirted and elegantly slid off his muscular and gnarled back "I couldn't resist, as you are such a handsome rat, nice to meet you, I'm Miniala Rattatola, a romantic, spontaneous rodent and above all, fully available to you..."

I handed him a piece of french cheese that I kept for a special event like this, he sniffed the fromage suspiciously and devoured it swiftly.

"My name is Scabbers, have you seen a red cat or a black dog here? " He asked in a terrified voice.

"Why ruin the atmosphere my beloved Scabbers?" I said with a drop of disappointment, "There are no cats here and of course there are no dogs, BLOODY HELL! IT'S A KITCHEN! hygiene is highly maintained here! Besides, the house-elves requested Dumbledore not to let them in. The last time a cat came in, there was a big commotion and it took a couple of days to calm down the house-elves and another two days to get them back to routine" I said and invited him to my little rat hole by the stove.

It turns out that this cute and alerted creature is a big world rat. He told me he belongs to a red-haired wizard family and together they traveled to Egypt last summer.

I was very impressed because as a provincial rodent (like me), the furthest I have come in the course of my short life has been the room where the elves bake desserts... Scabbers' brave eyes kept lurking for danger, I always wanted a big, strong rat to protect me so I popped the question and challenged him,

"What are your plans for the future? Do you have a lucky female scab waiting for you in a borrow somewhere?" I asked apprehensively

"I have nothing like that!" He replied to my satisfaction "I'm tired of the red-headed wizard family, I want to run away from Hogwarts and meet My Lord Master, he needs my aid, I'll be his right hand!" He said to me while his eyes shined

"Take me with you!" I threw myself in front of him

"If you will get me out of Hogwarts, I'm yours" he promised

My heart pounded ecstatically "Scubby - the light of my life, I promise to do everything in order to find us and our future family a way out!"

Scabbers responded with a startled burp that truly captivated my heart, you can no longer find high-quality rats like him in the kitchen at Hogwarts.
