Four: The Leaky-Eye-View
Chapter 4 of 4
LariopeA letter, ill-thought out and accidentally delivered, acts as a catalyst between Professors Snape and Granger. Written by OpalJade and Lariope.
ReviewedA/N: The last of our four part series. :) I hope you giggled as much as we did.
Leaky stood concealed in the doorway, her large ears twitching. Miss Professor Granger had been quite clear in her instructions that Leaky should hide herself and watch Miss Granger with Professor Snape to make a record of their meeting, in case Sir should try to break his agreement with Miss Professor again later.
Leaky raised her fist and lowered it, raised it and lowered it again. Should she punish herself for what she was seeing? Miss Professor Granger had said… but Leaky knew, didn’t she, that house elves was not supposed to be watching the wizards and witches kiss. Hadn’t her mother told her when she was just a little elf, “Leaky, it does not matter how much they calls you. If the family is making more family, you is staying out of it.”
Were Sir and Miss her family? Leaky supposed they were. Hogwarts was her family, and these were Professors of Hogwarts. Were they making more family? Well, not yet, but even a house elf knew that when a wizard clutches a witch’s robes in his fist as he is kissing her, and grinds his… well, family making could not be far away.
Decision made, Leaky scurried back to the kitchen, where she could surely find plenty of objects suitable for punishing herself, and breathed a sigh of relief that her cauldron moving days were over.

Hehe... making more family is not far away, huh? I like Leaky.
"Look, you arse..." LOL! I love her post script.
Oh, I'm sure his feelings are "less benign than 'like'". ;) He's so sure of his Slytherin cunning that he can't see how transparent he is.
This was a really fun letter to read. It read exactly as I picture an adult Hermione Granger would write.
