Chapter 5

“It’s always her!” Amanda thought as she watched Snape circling around Hermione’s desk. Why her? She’s just an arrogant, little know-it-all. What’s so special about her? Amanda thought that the things she had done to her professor would get his attention off Hermione, but obviously she was wrong. She had never seen Snape this focused on Hermione before. And he didn’t even have that usual loathing expression on his face when he looked at her. He was actually giving her an investigating look.

Amanda felt a little bit better as Snape sneered at Hermione and Ron and their whispering, but she still felt jealous of Hermione, and furious at her and Snape. She looked down at her Potions assignment, and decided to concentrate on that instead. Maybe she could make a better potion than Hermione at least…

The lesson drew nearer to the end, and it was time to hand in their work to Snape. The class started cleaning up after themselves, and suddenly Amanda saw Snape walking up to Harry’s desk. He lent down to speak to him, and Amanda sprung up from her desk and pretended to have to get something from the shelf next to Harry’s desk, eavesdropping on their conversation.

Snape spoke in a low voice so that no one else would hear: “Mister Potter”, Snape hissed. “It seems that someone in some sort of invisibility cloak has been coming into my office the last few evenings. Do you have anything to do with this?” Amanda gasped! “This was it,” she thought. He would find out, and that in front of the entire class. She wanted to curl up and die right there on the floor.

Harry gave Amanda a questioning look. She looked back, pleadingly, shaking her head. “Please!” she thought. “Don’t tell him! Don’t tell him!” Harry turned to Snape and said with a firm voice: ”I have no idea what you’re talking about, sir!” Snape frowned at him, and went back to his desk getting ready to collect today’s work from his students. Amanda mouthed the words “Thank you” to Harry and hurried back to her place. She handed in her potion and walked quickly out of the classroom.

That was close! Now she had to make up some story to Harry why she was in Snape’s office. And fast... Harry came towards her with a shocked expression on his face. “What was that about?” he asked her angrily. “You said you were going to the library, not Snape’s office. What in Merlin’s name were you doing in Snape’s office?” Amanda gulped. She didn’t know what to say. “Er…” she started, her mind working as fast as possible, “I…”

“Are you stealing Potions ingredients?” Harry asked her. “Yes!” Amanda replied quickly. “I’m sorry. I didn’t think anyone would find out.” “Are you completely mental? I told you to be careful and don’t get caught, and you sneak into Snape’s office? That’s like the worst thing you can do. He always finds out!”

Harry was furious. Amanda felt the tears filling up in her eyes. How could she have been this stupid? Now she was never going to borrow the cloak again and never been able to go back. She didn’t even know if she wanted to go back. If it was this dangerous, and Snape only noticed Hermione anyway, what was the point?

Harry demanded his cloak back, and Amanda gave it to him without arguing. He walked with a fast pace away from her, leaving a sobbing Amanda in the corridor of the dungeon. She walked slowly back to her dormitory. She didn’t care that she missed the last lessons that afternoon; she didn’t want to be around people right now, and especially Harry. She threw herself on her bed, crying. Again, how could she have been this stupid? All of this trouble for just some moments of pleasure?

“But what a pleasure,” she thought. Although she hadn’t allowed her professor to touch her yet, she had loved every second they’ve had together. She could just imagine what it would feel like if he could return the touches. Just the thought of him made her feel warm and aroused.

She longed to go back to him and his kisses. She longed to touch his body, hear him breathe heavily in her ear, watching him as he climaxed with a big smile on his mildly scarred, but beautiful, face. She loved every part of his body; his long black hair, his dark mysterious eyes, his soft hands, his well trimmed muscles and his smile. She just adored his smile. She had never seen him smile before, just the small smirks he gave whenever he had hassled one of his least favourite students.

Amanda loved the way that he kissed her; so gently and in a way so uncertain of himself. She believed he wasn’t the most experienced man in that area, and with her being invisible to him, she wasn’t surprised that he did.

He was not the same man as she had pictured him to be during the soon to be six years she had known him. She had always believed him to be a cold, hateful man, who never would be able to enjoy anything. But she had been proven wrong. Just the way he had kissed her back, and pleaded her to kiss him, showed a man who needed someone to make him feel good about himself. And his behaviour and mood the following day had amplified that.

The girl started to wonder what it would be like if she allowed him to touch her. The thought of his hands all over her body, him kissing her wherever he wanted to, him taking a bit more control, but her still in command, made her feel even more excited. She couldn’t give up on this. She couldn’t give up on him. She had to find a way to see him, and somehow let him know that she was not Hermione! She had to master the disillusionment charm, and soon!

Amanda got up, grabbed her wand and started practising. The last time she had tried, she managed to do much better than she had ever done before. That had to mean she was getting better at it.

She stayed in her room, practising all afternoon, missing dinner completely. But she didn’t care. Her mind was determined to do this! Around ten, Lavender, Parvati and Hermione entered the dormitory, and Amanda pulled the curtains around her bed to hide what she was doing. She didn’t want anyone to know or to disturb her.

But at eleven-thirty she still couldn’t make herself invisible for more than a quarter of an hour, and that was not nearly enough time. This was apparently not going to happen tonight. Disappointed, she decided to call it a day, put on her nightgown and went to bed. Amanda hoped to at least dream about him.

“Mister Potter”, Snape hissed. “It seems that someone in some sort of invisibility cloak...
Love Snape hissing like the viper he is (never mind me, Slytherin Pride)

Amanda loved the way that he kissed her; so gently and in a way a so uncertain. [surely...in a way so uncertain] of himself? [and there's an extra 'a there]
He's not snivelly he's just uncertain under the circumstances, is how I chose to read it and I think what you meant.

more...more...fic junkie in anticipatory withdrawal...I am critiquing your work not you. I enjoyed it as much as the previous...can't wait for chapter 9 to see how she actually pulls it off...or not.

Thanks, Kat!
I can always rely on you commenting. I love that!

You're right about Snape being uncertain under the circumstances. Who wouldn't be? 'Oh, here I am minding my own business, and this invisible creature suddenly starts to kiss and do naughty things to me... hmm... I'm sooo in control here...' hahah, that would be a cool angle, though.
So you're right, he is not snivelly, just caught of guard :)Poor Severus... well not really...

I also fixed the sentence with the hissing a bit. Take a look at it and see if that makes things clearer.

My mum always says "Poor Snape" and named a squirrel that looked like it had been throguh the mill "Severus Slinky Squirrel"...any way you put it, however cute we must not pitying (as you said above "...well not really..." He'd likes the 'not really'

The sentence is much more clear.

I'm weird...I name trees as well as odd wildlife. %^@$#@ tree-hugger Slytherin? From some of the fanfic you have read...anything is possible. I am preoccupied with this iPod I bought for cheap yesterday. 8 gig, touch screen. I am sooo stoked with it. I've never had anything but an ancient mp3 player 1/2 gig. This piece of tek is bamboozling. I love solving such mysteries, my wide Ravenclaw side. >yay!< for Ravenclaw but that doorknocker keeps outsmarting me...

You're so right about Severus and the not pitying-thing, but what I originally meant by 'not really' was that it's not poor Severus at all, he's probably having the time of his life... But I guess the 'not really' fits both so ;)
