The Foolish Wallflower.

 

“Stop hiding and go mingle, Severus.”

“I don’t care for mingling.”

“Talk to Harry, then.”

“He’s already talking to Filius.”

“So?”

“So what, Minerva?”

“So talk to him anyway.”

“I can’t. Filius is giving him teaching advice.”

“Follow his example, then.”

“What for? Potter doesn’t need advice.”

“Merlin! You’re so blind.”

“I’m not. Potter will be fine. He likes teaching.”

“He likes you too.”

“Excuse me?”

“And you like him.”

“I don’t like-

“Pft!”

“Fine! But Potter doesn’t-

“He does. I can prove it, Severus.”

“You— can?”

“You smile whenever you see him.”

“Minerva-

“And Harry smiles back, you, fool.”

I love Minerva's bluntness here - "you fool." Made me chuckle.

[pekeleke]

LOL. To be fair, I think bluntness is the only thing that'll make a dent on Severus's stubborn determination to miss what's right in front of his nose, so Minerva chose her weapon wisely.

I'm glad that the 'you fool' remark made you chuckle, dracdauter. Thanks so much for taking the time to both read and review this drabble. Your kind and lovely comment meant the world to me. :)

Plain speaking and maybe a bat to hit Severus over the head with.

[pekeleke]

LOL. Minerva is definitely Gryffindor enough to try hitting Severus Snape over the head with a bat. I shiver thinking what sort of revenge he'd plot to get even for that, though. :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to both read and review this drabble, lara_quinn. Your kind and lovely comment was greatly appreciated. :)

The summary was really good and the drabble was even better! Excellent, really. ^^

Thank you for making not only Harry and Severus smile but me, too.
