At the Pub
Chapter 4 of 12
morgaine_dulacA Potions master returning home for summer and a pleasant distraction.
ReviewedThey met up at the pub in the end, as they both agreed that drinking wine at her place on the first date wasn’t appropriate. It wasn’t a date either. They had agreed on that, too. They were just two people meeting up for a drink in order to learn something more from one another than just their last names.
‘I heard the children call you Cat,’ Severus started.
‘That’s short for Catriona.’
Severus nodded. He knew. He even knew what kind of car she drove.
‘My name is Severus.”
‘I know,’ Cat said and smiled.
Of course she knew.
***
‘You’re a teacher then?’
Severus frowned. That she’d been able to find out his name was one thing, but his profession?
‘I figured since you’re only around during summer. Boarding school?’
Severus nodded, not quite sure how much he wanted to reveal. To his relief, Cat didn’t seem to want to know more.
‘I was thinking about becoming a teacher once. But I didn’t want to do the same job year after year.’
‘You don’t play with five-year-olds all year round then?’
‘Only during summer. I travel a lot. No strings attached.”
No strings attached? Severus liked that.
***
‘I think I should walk you home now,’ he suggested shortly before closing time. He had lost count of how many pints they’d had.
‘I don’t think that would be appropriate.’
‘Why not?’
‘Because I’m tipsy.’
‘I am not planning to take advantage of you, if that’s what you’re worried about.’
Cat giggled.
‘What a shame.’
She did let him escort her home, all the way to her garden gate. There she looked him straight in the eyes. She wasn’t half as tipsy as she pretended to be.
‘We should do this again some time,’ she suggested and Severus agreed.

Oh, my! I was not expecting this to be a story with an OC. You infused Cat with personality enough to match everything we already know about Severus Snape. They were such a good match. A wonderful little interlude.
All the best to dear old Severus for his next summer fling!

We'll see what I can do. :)
Thank you for a great story, I am always happy when Severus is happy:-)

And thank YOU for reading and enjoying the story. It was good fun to write, and I am quite surprised how it worked out.
Nicely done Severus! Love, love this story can't wait for the next update.
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
Shouldn't be long until the next chapter. Glad you're enjoying the story! :-)
I love to see Severus a little off kilter. I am glad she is having that effect on him and I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Sent the continuation to my beta last night. Shouldn't be long.
Cute and sweet.
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
This was inspired by my morning walk to the train station, when a group of kindergarteners called out for me. What comes after that is, however, pure fiction.
Lovely little bits about our Potions Master. Can't wait to find out more.

Well I’m looking forward to her return from Greece. Hint hint!
How can a girl resist a bottle of elf made wine offered by Severus Snape?
I haven’t read any fan fiction in a very long time so it was nice to wander on here and find a lovely story by Ms Dulac waiting for me. I like where this is going.
lovely to meet a new story, it has been a while since I found this site, nice surprise. was thinking the other day about the time when muffliato was young and I was checking every day if there were new stories, and you was writing so wonderful stories. Nice meeting you again, love Leni
Very sweet and very sexy, thank you!

Go for him, Cat!
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
I wish I had her courage!
I have wine, I have a garden, where's Severus?
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
I also have wine and a garden. I am starting to wonder if he is avoiding those things.
Oh yes, Lucius is dead useful sometimes. Thank you for this new story!
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
Can't help myself. I just HAVE to write in Lucius somewhere in every story. He's like an easter egg. ;-)
love the story!!
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
I'm so glad you're enjoying this! :-) Next chapter will be up in a couple of minutes.
As always a very entertaining chapter. Already looking towards the next.
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
Finished writing the story today. You're in for some treats. :-) Glad you're enjoying the story.
It's wonderful to see something new from you, thank you! It is a shame that Severus can't walk by my workplace ...
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
Huiiii! I've been missed. That's good for my ego, haha! I'm almost glad he can't walk past my workplace. i'm normally in a pissy mood when I'm there.

I love this lady already! Thanks so much. X
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
Still trying to figure out what to call her. :-) Thanks for reading (twice) and leaving a review.
This woman is a daredevil, I must say.
Response from morgaine_dulac (Author of A Summer Fling)
She has no sense of self-preservation whatsoever. Haha! Then again, she doesn'tknow dear Severus yet.
