We're off to the carnival! I hope everyone has fun.

"Have any of us ever been to a Carnival before?" Lucius asked, tilting his head and gazing up at the brightly lit Ferris Wheel. "Severus you grew up muggle?"

"I may have grown up muggle." Severus said, following his friends gaze. "However my parents never felt the need to take me to a Carnival."

"Mr. Malfoy?" Hermione said softly. "I've been loads of times."

"It's Lucius dear. We're all friends here, no need to be formal." He smiled broadly. "Well it seems you are our resident authority. What should we do first?"

"We need to find a ticket booth, it should be right inside."

"Splendid. What do we need tickets for?"

"Everything." Hermione laughed. "For the rides, to play games, food, drinks, everything."

"Well lead the way."

Stepping through the arch onto the fairgrounds, Hermione looked around. "There it is." She pointed towards the ticket seller. Both Lucius and Severus stepped around her and made their way to the booth.

Ginny grabbed Hermione's arm as she reached into her pocket to pull out her money. "Don't bother. Lucius won't let you pay. Look, he's already arguing with Professor Snape about it. This could take a while." She sighed. Looking around, she walked over and sat down at a picnic table. Hermione settled herself on the bench next to her and they watched the two men, each with a wad of muggle money in hand, argue and gesture towards the ticket stand.

"Merlin but he looks fit." She sighed, staring at Professor Snape. Ginny followed her gaze and nodded in approval. He was dressed in black jeans and a black knit shirt. He was taller and leaner then Lucius, the shirt emphasizing his narrow waist and broad shoulders.

"Who knew he was hiding all that under his teaching robes." Ginny said.

"I didn't." Hermione said, unable to tear her eyes away from him. "I mean I knew he was sexy, but..."

Ginny giggled and slung her arm around her friends shoulders. "And just think he's all yours."

"Hardly." Hermione snorted. "He's barely said two words to me."

"Just remember what Lucius said, he's a bit shy, but he wants you. Give him time. He'll warm up to you. Oh look. I think they've finally got the ticket buying sorted."

The girls watched as the two men headed back towards them. Severus paused and pulled a small silver flask from his pocket, taking a quick drink before handing it over to Lucius.

"'Ello luv. Yer a bit of awright. What're two birds like yerselves doing here all alone?"

Ginny turned her head and looked at two leather jacketed men. They appeared to be in their early 20's. The one who had spoken smiled, showing stained and crooked teeth. The other was burly with a shaved head.

"Shove off." Ginny said, turning away.

"Now that's not very nice." He said, licking his lips.

"You heard the lady, she said 'shove off.'" Severus' baritone voice resonated from behind the young men.

Lucius stepped forward and held out his hand to Ginny. "Are you ready?"

"Yes." Ginny said, taking his hand gratefully, while throwing a contemptuous look at the two strangers.

Severus held out his hand to Hermione and pulled her to her feet. "If you will excuse us." He said, staring pointedly at the men.

They laughed and stepped to the side. "If you birds get tired of hanging out with geezers, we'll be around."

"So what should we do first?" Lucius said, ignoring the young man's comment.

"I say we just roam around and see what strikes our fancy." Hermione suggested, painfully aware of Severus' warm hand still holding hers.

"Sounds good to me." Ginny said, eager to put some distance between themselves and the young men.

As they walked, Severus reached into his pocket and pulled out the flask taking a small sip.

"Hermione?" Lucius called over his shoulder. "What is that?" He stopped in front of a booth selling what looked like pink cotton on a stick.

"That's candy floss." Hermione said. Lucius still looked at her curious. "It's like spun flavored sugar. You eat it."

Stepping up to the booth, Lucius produced a ticket. He returned to the group with the confection clutched in his hand. "How do you eat it?"

"It's usually best just to pick bits off with your fingers and then let it dissolve in your mouth." Hermione picked a bit off and ate it. Lucius followed suit, offering it to Ginny and Severus.

"That's vile." Severus gasped, pulling his flask out and taking a long drink. "It's like eating pure sugar."

"I don't much care for it either." Hermione said softly.

"It's sticky." Lucius said, rubbing some between his fingers. Both he and Ginny tore off large chunks before tossing the rest in the bin. "Now what?"

"The tea cups!" Hermione cried out in excitement, grabbing Ginny's hand and running off towards the ride.

As they waited in line Severus passed the flask to Lucius before returning it to his pocket. "What are you two drinking?" Ginny asked.

"Some fine Old Ogden's Fire Whiskey." Severus said, pulling the flask back out of his pocket. "Would you care for a sip."

Ginny took it from his hand and sniffed carefully before taking a small sip. "Ugh how can you drink that?" She coughed.

"I quite like it." He said, taking another long drink. He offered the flask to Hermione who refused with a small shake of her head.

Lucius chuckled quietly as he handed the tickets over to the attendant. Ginny and Hermione rushed passed him to a tea cup.

"So what is the object of this?" Lucius asked, after the attendant had lowered the safety bar across their laps.

"It spins." Hermione said. "The whole thing spins and then the cups themselves spin. You can make it spin faster with this wheel." She pointed to the disc in the middle.

"Hmmmm." Lucius said, looking eagerly around him as the ride slowly started. "Shall we go faster?" He asked, reaching for the wheel.

"Yes." Ginny squealed. "Faster."

Lucius tugged hard on the wheel and felt it slowly begin to turn in his hands. "Little help?" He raised an eyebrow at Severus. Leaning forward Severus placed his hands on the wheel and pulled. Soon the two men established a rhythm and they were spinning around in a whirl. Hermione smiled as the centrifugal force pressed her hard against Snape's body.

When the ride slowed and stopped, both girls were giggling madly. "Whoa. I'm dizzy." Ginny laughed, stumbling a little as she stood up.

lllllllllll

"I'm famished." Lucius announced as they exited the bumper cars. "Let's find some food."

Hermione looked around, then pointed in the direction of the food vendors. The group headed in that directions, smelling the wonderful aromas of cooking food. Ginny grabbed onto Lucius arm when she saw the two men from before heading in their direction. Crooked teeth took a sidestep and deliberately bumped into Lucius as they passed by.

"Watch where yer walking old man." He laughed, baring is stained teeth.

"Lucius no." Ginny hissed, as she felt the muscles of his arm flex beneath her grip. "Just ignore them."

"That's right ya' grotty old tosser." The other man sneered. "We're still waiting for you luvs." He said, blowing smacking kisses at Hermione and Ginny.

"Sod off you arseholes." Ginny said, pushing Lucius in the direction of a hamburger stand.

Severus pulled his flask out of his pocket and took a long drink as he stared sullenly after the two hooligans, his black eyes flashing with rage..

"Come on." Hermione said softly, linking her arm with his and pulling gently.

"So how is Hogwarts treating you this year, Severus?" Lucius asked when they were all settled at a picnic table with burgers and soft drinks.

"They usual bunch of dunderheads." He sneered taking a drink from his flask. "I'm already down 12 cauldrons. Thank Merlin I only have to bear it for a little while longer."

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked, taking a sip off her soft drink.

"I am leaving Hogwarts at the end of the school year."

"What?" Hermione gasped, nearly spilling her drink. "You can't leave Hogwarts."

"I can't?"

"Well what I mean." Hermione blushed. "Is it just won't seem like Hogwarts without you."

"You make it sound as if I'm part of the brickwork and masonry. Hogwarts will manage just fine with out me, Ms. Granger."

"What will you do Professor?" Ginny asked, taking a bite of her hamburger.

"Ms. Granger? Professor?" Lucius snorted. "Why are we being so formal. "It's Ginny and Hermione, Severus. They aren't your students any longer."

Severus leveled a dark look at his blonde friend before taking another long drink off his flask. "Well Ginny." He said slowly, emphasizing her name. "I plan on doing what I've always wanted to do, brew potions. I may even open my own apothecary."

"Oh, I've developed some wonderful computer software for small businesses." Hermione said smiling.

"It's true." Ginny agreed. "We use it at our shop, it's fabulous."

"Well." Severus snorted, wiping his mouth with a napkin. "In all honesty I've been unable to make heads or tails of that contraption Minerva has foisted upon me."

"Really Severus?" Lucius laughed. "I'm actually thinking of getting one for my office at the Manor. Rumor has it you can look up pornography on it."

"Oh I've mastered the porn aspect, it's using it for anything remotely academic that I seem to be having difficulty." Severus smirked.

Lucius laughed at the petulant look on Hermione's face.

"Oh you two...men." She huffed.

"Hey." Ginny said suddenly, staring across the table at Severus. "You just smiled. I've never seen you smile before."

"Yes Ms. Weasley, excuse me, Ginny. I have been known to smile. I even laugh on occasion."

"Well we've eaten, Severus has blessed us with a rare smile. What should we do next." Lucius asked glancing around the table.

"I don't know." Ginny said, gathering up the food wrappers. "But I'm ready to explore some more."

"I was only teasing about the computer." Severus said softly as he and Hermione trailed behind Ginny and Lucius.

"So you've used it then?"

"Well no." He pulled the flask from his pocket and taking a quick drink. "I haven't."

Hermione sighed and hurried to catch up to Ginny and Lucius.

"What is this place?" He asked staring up at the ramshackled looking building.

"It's the Fun House. Mirrors that make you look funny, mazes, stuff that's hard to walk over."

"And that's...fun?" Lucius raised his eyebrow.

"I guess it can be." Hermione said, shrugging her shoulders.

Lucius counted out the tickets and handed them to the attendant. "Well let's go have some fun." Grabbing Ginny's hand and leading her up the stairs.

"After you." Severus bowed to Hermione, gesturing towards the stairs.

The group of four wandered down a dark corridor until they reached a bank of mirror. Standing before it they gazed at their shortened and broadened images.

"We look like Goblins." Ginny said, waving her hand and watching as her pudgy short image waved back at her.

"I don't like this at all." Lucius shook his head in disgust at his short fat image.

"Yes we wouldn't want anything to besmirch the glorious image that is Lucius Malfoy." Severus said dryly.

"No we wouldn't." Lucius quipped back, following Ginny over a series of suspended barrels. He snorted when he heard a bang from behind them. "Mind your step Severus, you pissy bastard."

"Are you okay." Hermione turned and held out her hand to her old Professor.

"I'm quite fine." He said, holding on tightly to the railing and ignoring her outstretched hand. "Just a little misstep."

The two turned the corner and entered a room full of mirrors. Severus snorted as he was surrounded by the image of Ginny and Lucius locked in a passionate kiss.

"Just what I need. The image of you snogging in kaleidoscope."

Lucius' laughed reverberated throughout the room. "Jealousy doesn't suit you Severus. If you have have snogging issues, I suggest you discuss them with Ms. Granger."

Hermione blanched white and hurried off in the direction of Ginny's laughter.

Ginny, Lucius and Hermione walked out of the fun house and back onto the midway. "Well that was interesting to say the least." He muttered, turning to catch Severus' arm as he stumbled down the stairs. "Careful there." He said in a low whisper.

The foursome turned and headed towards the games. Ginny and Hermione pulled ahead, pausing to stare and point at a vast array of colorful stuffed animals.

Lucius watched as a young muggle man presented his smiling date with a blue teddy bear.

"Well old friend." Lucius sighed, taking a quick sip off Severus' flask before handing it back. "It would appear that we are honored bound to win our dates a stuffed animal."
