Amelia kissed Severus. On the lips.

They had, had many kisses on cheeks and many close encounters but this was real.

Severus world had irrevocably changed and yet Amelia got back into her spot and the next person spun the bottle.

"No jinxing the bottle!" One of the girls shouted when it was lucius turn.

"I'm not." He assured but the bottle landed on Amelia when it clearly was going to land on Esme.

'Liar."

"I'm not kissing you until you shave your mustache." Lucius corrected. Esme put a hand to her lip as Lucius pulled Amelia into his lap kissing her. He kept her hostage in his arms as the game continued. Severus stared back at her still breathless.

"That was fun." Amelia remarked.

"Kissing me usually is." Lucius agreed.

"Oh?" Amelia laughed out tipping into his bed. Severus stared back at them silently.

"Let's go again." He agreed

"It's not my turn to spin." Amelia corrected as if rules ever stopped her

"Just kiss me and forget this stupid game." Lucius corrected.

"Alright." She agreed easily kissing him again his grip turned possessive until she jumped up declaring she was to tired to continue. "Night boys." She blew lucius and severus a kiss before prancing off to bed. She smiled at the play Tom had given her patting the petals gently as if it was a cat. Her own cat didn't bother the plant which she found strange because he had became great at killing her plant life. He left this one alone as if he knew it was special.

~James Pooper, I hope that you wake up tomorrow morning with a small hangnail, and when you pick at it, it just gets bigger and more painful. I hope that it bothers you so much that you just keep picking at it, but it doesn't come off, and you end up pulling a really long sliver of skin off your finger. Then I hope it gets infected, and the only solution is to amputate your whole hand. That would really make my day. Love, Amelia~

"You like this monster?" James questioned. Remus snatched the scroll from him. 

"I dont." Remus corrected. 

"You do." Sirius realized. 

"Shut up." Remus begged. 

"She wants me to lose my hand." James countered. 

"No she just... hopes you get a very bad hangnail." Remus corrected. 

"That ends in the amputation of  my hand!" James shouted. 

"Yeah..." Remus drawled. "She signed it love-"

"REMUS!" 

"It's not like she put a curse on you." 

Jame was picking at a hangnail during potions and he was sure Ameila had put a curse on him. She smiled her eyes drifting to his hand. She held her own hand straight and chopped it down on her opposite wrist with a dramatic drop of her jaw. 

"She did this." James whispered. 

"Stop picking at it." Sirius countered. 

"I can't. I can't stop." james corrected. 

"She got in your head." Remus corrected. "She's good at that. Just stop."

"What's up with you and those gryffindors?" Lucius whispered kissing her cheek. 

"Just the power of a good written letter to drive them crazy." Amelia purred. "Dont worry sevy," She purred running a hand through his hair. "I didnt hurt them. This little feud has moved past you and them and has moved onto us vs them."
