Foster invited us to sit in the Gryffindor Common room. We promised to meet there after dinner. Meanwhile Sean and Haoran led me to the Slytherin common room, which was empty. Amy was in her dorm.
"Now tell us everything? What did he do? Where did he touch you? Did you call him Professor all the while?" Sean could not get over his excitement. Haoran did not say anything, but his face clearly showed he was up for a good story, like a little dog, when you call them in for treat.
"Relax guys, nothing like that happen. We went to Hogs Head Inn, had coffee and scones. Took the corner table and snogged and ate in silence. I asked him some questions. You know he is just twenty-one. He graduated the same year we joined. And he stays in Cokeworth too; different Street but same town."
"That's it. That's all you guys said to each other." asked Sean. "The first week we started dating we already were in process to second base and in the second week he told me he loves me. And you are telling me you could not go past location and year of graduation. And who the hell goes on a first date to the Hogs Head Inn? You might as well get food poisoning from the scones you ate."
"Now this is too much Sean, I did not pay for it and he asked me out, so I let him choose the location."
"You could have gone to Madam Puddifoot's tea shop"
"That's too crowded with couples and anyway it's not safe for us to be seen outside like that."
"What the hell, you guys are like snogging in the classroom and going out on date, yet no one can know? I doubt his intentions now. Are you sure he is serious about it? And not toying with you?" Sean asked, now really looking concerned. His concerned face made me nervous. I opened my mouth to say something, but then thought, "He is not wrong actually. Severus barely opened up to me although he loves to snog me given the chance but he is so reserved."
I sat down beside them, lost in deep thought. Sean's eyes followed me, still awaiting reply. Haoran was not saying anything all this while, he just listened to us. Now he spoke up, "As far as I have seen professor Snape he does not look like the one to open up to anyone. He stays quiet even when he is eating with the other teachers. For a person like that, I don't think one can expect him to open up at the first go. I think he needs time. The question is whether you are willing to be patient enough to wait for him to open up. It might take one day or one year or even the entire lifetime." Both Sean and I were now staring at him; like he was the Pope talking and we were his blind followers. He paused, looking back at both of us.
"Just listen to whatever he says. I am dumb. I am nothing like him." Sean said.
"Really, now you are dumb? A few minutes ago you flood my brain with your stupid questions and assumptions, that for a moment I was starting to doubt him, you asshole" I was shouting at Sean now. I was angry, he was about to ruin my entire day with that.
