"Where were you all evening?" Fred asked at breakfast the next morning.

"Yeah, Ella, tell us! We couldn't find you anywhere!" George prodded, wondering if I'd found another secret passageway that they'd somehow missed.

"Oh, no," Fred started. "Did you talk to Snape?" He asked, shocked.

"And he'll tell us," George laughed.

"Actually, have either of you told Dumbledore about that?" I questioned, curiously.

I blushed at the thought of he and I alone together once again. "Any chance of getting a few extra House points for Slytherin?" I smirked, knowing it was a long shot.

"I think something could be arranged," he agreed, heading back to the Great Hall.

"Heard you're meeting with Snape tonight," Fred beamed, wildly.

"Make sure and give him a big fat kiss for me," George laughed as he held his arm around me and made kissy noises.

"You two are pathetic," I giggled, turning red. "How did you even know?"

"Ron told us," they both said, shaking their heads. "He and Harry overheard the two of you when they were coming out of the Great Hall."
