Chapter 54

Chapter 54

The last four teams were now on the field. They were standing behind Dumbledore who was waiting for the students to calm down and listen.

“Now we have our four remaining teams, the two who win this one will go onto the final contest to determine the winner.”

Dumbledore waved to the students.

“We have team Mixed; with Lily Evans of Gryffindor.” The males in the crowd went wild screaming for her to date them. “Severus Snape of Slytherin,” Several girls from his house yelled things to him about meeting up later, Snape paid them no attention. “Narcissa Black of Slytherin,” Several guys made lewd comments about her and things she does, she just waved happily to them.  

“Michael Beal of Ravenclaw and Brenda Ross of Hufflepuff,” They received their share of admiring hoots and offers for dates. Both looked amused by this.

Dumbledore went on to announce the other winning teams.

She was smiling and gave a small wave to James and Sirius who was holding up a sign that said Lily is the best there is no need for the rest.

“I get the feeling that someone is rooting for you to win this.” Snape said dryly.

Lily chuckled at him.

“Gee I don’t know it doesn’t look like a big sign to me.” Lily and Severus both laughed happily.

Snape slipped his hand onto her back; she looked at him her one eyebrow arched in a cute way.

“Getting friendly?” Lily smiled at Snape letting him know she didn’t mind,

“Only with you Li, only with you,” Snape grinned at her his hand gave her a small squeeze on her back.

“Sure Sev, I heard the girls out there.” Lily smirked at him.

“They can beg all they want; you spoiled me for any others.” Snape said seriously.

Lily tried to think of something to say then closed her mouth feeling awkward and wondering if he was teasing her.

Snape looked at her his eyes boring into her own green ones. Lily felt for sure she was going to fall into his eyes and be lost forever in them.

“Lily it’s time to get started.” Brenda said next to her.

“Huh, oh yeah of course, thanks Brenda,” Lily gulped her face flaming hot as she tried to concentrate on what was being said. Brenda handed her the sealed parchment.

Lily opened it to read it.

“Oh look at this Sev, we need to make a two minute polyjuice potion that will only take two hours to make instead of a month and we are supposed to change into each other.” Lily gave Snape a wiry grin. “Wanna be me?”

“Sounds; like a fun thing to do.”

“There are five of us here, who doubles up?” Narcissa asked looking very put out at Snape. I can’t believe him, why is, he so … friendly with her… she’s a Mudblood.

Narcissa wanted to run over and slap Snape then kiss him and make him see she was the right one for him.

“Why don’t you try to let someone double you, then you can see what you’re really like?” Lily said as sweetly as possible.

“At least they’d be happier being me then a Mudblood.” Narcissa sneered.

“Girls not now, let’s get to work.” Snape said once again stepping between them.
