...(*Dies*. Time to save the day.) The Announcers followed Melanie, making sure she looked as they slid under the door, pulling the letter out and bouncing it across the dungeon.

Melanie growled. "What the hell?!" She said, catching them take the letter out from underneath the door. She picked up the paper and slid it back under the door, harder this time. "Leave it alone," She hissed at the...whatevers.
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip.

Severus fought the shiver that shot down his spine. Oh no, that meant... They were back. Which meant that he was back. sh.it.

Melanie placed her hands on her hips triumphantly. "There," She said of the letter that had been successfully "sent," and then she spun around and started to walk out slowly.

The shadows spun around Melanie, making the circle tighter and tighter as the wind whistled with their speed.

"Didn't you hear me? I said get out of here!" Melanie said to the shadows, louder this time. "I'm trying to storm off dramatically and you're ruining it." She glared at the things surrounding her.

Severus stuck his head out of the doorway, holding the now read letter behind his back. He look up at the shadows once, jerking his head to the side. The Announcers obliged, slipping into his room and out of sight. "Excuse me Miss Potter, some of us are trying to work here and it is hard enough without you screaming your lungs out."

"Sorry for your inconvience, sir," Melanie said coolly, and began to walk away, not looking at him. She couldn't.

Severus had annoyance written all over his face. "C'mere, Mel." A name he hadn't called her in forever.

Melanie turned around abruptly, tears already in her eyes. "What?" She asked sharply, somewhat taken aback by the name. It brought back memories she did not want to think of.

Severus did not answer, only gestured Melanie over with a wag of his finger.

Melanie rolled her eyes and walked over to Severus quickly. "What?" She repeated impatiently.

Severus held the letter between his index and middle finger. "What is this about?"

Melanie shook her head. "Don't want to talk about it. Now, can I leave?"

"The whole point of that was so I wouldn't have to," Melanie snapped, jabbing a finger at the letter. She turned her back on him and began to walk away. "Can't even make a dramatic exit without someone to foil it, damnit."

Severus' arm shot out, grabbing and spinning Melanie so they were barely brushing against each other. The physical contact with her had him shaking, despite his efforts in controlling it. "Where are you going." It wasn't a question.

"Home," Melanie let out shakily. Damn him for touching her.

((*Gets hit by the idea truck*)) "Why?" Severus asked, his hand involuntarily raising, his thumb tracing Melanie's cheek softly.

Melanie swatted his hand off of her cheek. "Because I have to." ((Ahah she's gonna play hard to get. >:D))
