This is the official sequel to P&P. The majority of the 'old' characters know the storyline. I am afraid that no new characters are avaliable for this RP, so I am sorry but nobody new can join.

This wont be starting untill tommorow, but seeing as I had a title in my head, I sussed it would be best to open it now. Plus I would like everyone just to put up a brief character analysis and explain how their character/s have developed up to this point.

If anyone comes up with a better title, then tell me. I'd like everyone's thoughts on it, as i didn't really think about it much.

A pink tinge crept into Snape's face as he walked over to his wardrobe and pulled out the silky navy blue robes Kristi had bought for him. He wasn't sure about them but, knew it was what Marcella wanted and he was willing to make the concession for her. He waved his wand and shifted uncomfortably. The material was lighter and softer than he was used to. He looked up at Marcella, trying to judge what she thought of them. "Will these do?" he asked, waving his wand again to tidy his hair.

EmmaRiddle · 06-23-2004, 10:34 PM

Lifting the skirt part of her robe, she took her wand from the inside of her garter and quickly dropped the material again. Frowning in thought first, she waved it toward him briefly and then put it back away. "A tone darker would suit better, or else we might clash, what with my violet shade. Besides, brightness just isn't you."

Biochemkris · 06-23-2004, 10:43 PM

Snape felt the colour creeping its way back into his face as she raised her robe a bit to get her wand. Looking down at the now, darker blue, robes, he felt a little more comfortable. He slowly walked back over to her so that he was stood in front of her. "Am I presentable, now?" he asked.

EmmaRiddle · 06-23-2004, 10:51 PM

Stepping nearer to him, she lifted her right thumb to her mouth, wetting it lightly and then smeared it over the lower side of his left cheek, just beneath the bone, where he had a smudge of different preventing him from appearing perfect. Removing her hand quickly, she smiled sweetly with just her lips and responded, "I believe you are."

Biochemkris · 06-23-2004, 11:00 PM

He smiled at her and then offered her his arm once more, which she took and they slowly made their way down the corridor. "So, what were you going to do in Hogsmeade?" he asked, breaking the awkward silence.

EmmaRiddle · 06-23-2004, 11:04 PM

"I was never going to do anything in Hogsmeade, well, not alone..." she lingered on her sentence, not sure whether he would refuse to walk any further with her if she revealed to him that she had planned for them to be able to go away alone all along. Dumbledore certainly might have seen through her plan but he did not show it. So maybe her disguise for him as an aide hadn't fooled Snape either.

Biochemkris · 06-23-2004, 11:33 PM

He tightened his grip on her arm a bit as they kept walking. "I didn't think you had meant to go alone," he said, looking straight ahead to the path in front of them. "I'm glad you asked me to accompany you. I had a nice little chat with Kristi and she thought I should spend some time with you, despite what Dumbledore ordered."

He paused in his speech and halted their walking as he turned to face Marcella. "I have to agree with her. I would much rather get sent to Azkaban a bit early for my diobedience than go in a few months without having had the chance to..." Snape stopped in his speech, unsure of what he was doing, speaking so freely.

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 10:24 AM

"A chance to what?" she asked, tentatively, squeezing her hand delicately over his. She couldn't believe her luck. He, like Dumbledore, had seen through her plan and yet had not chided her for it. Instead, he appeared somewhat pleased that she had thought to the take the initiative to ask him. But what now concerned her deeply, was the grave look upon his face, as if he were fighting some form of battle within his mind.

"What is it?" she asked for a second time, holding his hand tighter. "If you want, we could go back..I mean.." she stuttered, lost for what he was trying to tell her.

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 02:27 PM

Again, it seemed as if Kristi was urging him to just speak his mind and his feelings. He closed his eyes, briefly, and attempted to sort out what it was he had wanted to tell her. "No, I don't want to go back," he said. "If you'd let me... the chance to apologize to you and to show you that despite my past and my future, I do love you, Marcella, and would die before I let anyone kill you, including myself. A chance, perhaps, to make things right with you and attempt to be open about my feelings, no matter how difficult I am finding it right now."

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 06:07 PM

Sighing, she appeared rather distraught, but did not give it away in her voice. "I dont understand why you find it difficult though. Surely if you feel something so great, so illuminating, you'd want the whole world to know. You wouldn't care what others think. So why is it so hard to tell me, when I am the one whom it involves."

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 06:22 PM

"It isn't you, Marcella. I've always found it difficult to talk about my feelings and emotions. And rarely has the opportunity even presented itself to me," he said. "I am well practiced in the art of concealing emotions. The times in which I have lost control over them or expressed them have led to disaster. I suppose, in some ways, I fear these great and illuminating feelings."

Snape looked away, unsure of himself and this humbling experience of opening up and expressing his feelings and fears. He felt so naked and vulnerable. He despised feeling this way and told Marcella so.

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 07:40 PM

"I cant pretend I'm a touchy person emotionally either. I just supposed that maybe it being me, would make things easier. Apparently it has without you noticing." she commented, a grin spreading over her face, making her eyes sparkle and shimmer in the flickering light emulating from the candles lighting up the dark hallway. "Shall we make a move?"

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 07:55 PM

Snape smiled and put a hand to Marcella's face, brushing her cheek with his fingertips. "Maybe it has," he said and took her by the arm once more. "Perhaps we should arrange for a carriage ride to the village. I don't think you're quite ready for a walking trip of this magnitude this early in your recovery."

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 08:12 PM

For the first time in a while she laughed honestly, lifting a hand to her mouth. "Do you really think Dumbledore would not have thought of that? He agreed I could go, on the condition that I was supervised and transported there and back."

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 08:24 PM

"Alright then, let's get moving," he said, trying to hide his own smile as they began walking up the steps from the dungeon. "And what did you have planned for us once we get there?"

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 08:30 PM

Another grin emerged on her face, as let go of his arm and balanced her own weight back onto the one crutch. Walking in front of him, facing him, walking forward with her back turned to where she were going, she tapped her nose lightly and then cheekily muttered, "Now that would be telling, wouldn't it?"

Arriving at the main door, she quickly unbolted it with her wand and slipped the wood back against her leg, waiting for the door to be opened as she replaced her robe down over her legs for the second time.

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 08:41 PM

Snape wanted to reach out to her, afraid Marcella would hurt herself with her antics but, managed to restrain himself. She was being irritatingly coy and instead of being angry and frustrated, he was intrigued. He followed her out the door and hurried ahead of her to open the carriage door, offering to assist her inside.

EmmaRiddle · 06-24-2004, 08:56 PM

She smiled politely as he offered her a helping hand up into the carriage. Rather unlady like, she flopped down onto one of the velvety navy cushioned seats inside the carriage, glad to be off her feet, giving off a groan in relief.

Straightening her posture, she relaxed a little and smiled, trying not to tred on the long trails of her robe that so lightly glided across the floor of the compartment. As he stepped inside and the thestrals kicked off, she nodded toward a single slender bottle of white wine that stood on a miniature wooden table, placed neatly against the wall of the carriage, just beneath the window.

Closing the drapes, as it began to rain, she sighed, her dreams of walking back being drowned in the flooding droplets. Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, running a finger over lips, she licked over where a cut had once been and pressed her lips together, smiling, stroking a hand over her knee.

Biochemkris · 06-24-2004, 09:10 PM

Snape followed Marcella into the carriage, being careful not to tread on her robes, and sat across from her. He saw her gaze wander toward the window as she nodded toward a bottle of wine. He reached over her, his robes brushing her lap and took the bottle and the single goblet. He popped the cork and poured the glass, offering it to Marcella. "It seems Dumbledore has gone through a lot of trouble in arranging this rather romantic outing," he said, smiling at her.

EmmaRiddle · 06-25-2004, 10:15 PM

"Romantic outing?" she said, taking a sip from one of the goblets. "Does that really sound like him, to you? No, this.." she said, wavering a hand vaguely around the elegant drapes, the place where the wine bottle was perched and the candleholders, "Was entirely my idea, or scheme as you may see fit to call it. I dont doubt he has some idea as to what my intentions were, but if he had really forseen anything that would cause worry, I'm sure he would've prevented me from going completely." Taking a second sip, she delicately placed back down the goblet and looked longingly, without words at the space upon the cushioned bench next to her.

Biochemkris · 06-25-2004, 10:29 PM

"I gathered as much," he replied to her explanation of whose idea it relly was for the romantic atmosphere inside the carriage. Snape watched her gaze lingering on the bench beside her. Taking the hint, he got up and sat down on the opposite bench.

EmmaRiddle · 06-25-2004, 11:00 PM

Smiling, but not too broadly, as he moved, she whisked away the bottle and waved her wand so that the miniature table folded up neatly and then tucked itself beneath the bench that they were sat on. Slipping the wand back beneath her robe, she leant her head back, her inside suddenly completely overcome with this odd fluttering sensation. It took an enormous amount of nerve for her to move her eyes so that she were overlooking him, trying to gauge how he felt. For once, in a long time, they were truly alone, with not the slightest possibility of anyone interuptting them. Yet they were acting almost as if they were total strangers or else teenagers who were behaving bashfully on their first date.

Biochemkris · 06-25-2004, 11:12 PM

It was amazing the amount of tension in the carriage. With all the effort she had put into this outing, Snape wondered why she suddenly seemed to be pulling away again. This was ridiculous, he had decided to come along, open up to her, and to live for the moment rather than worry about a future he was never going to have. Finally, throwing caution to the wind, rejection or no, he shifted in his seat so that he was facing Marcella and reached over to stroke her hair. "Have you planned what we are going to do once we've arrived at our destination?" he whispered.

EmmaRiddle · 06-25-2004, 11:30 PM

Avoiding his line of sight, she rolled her eyes impressively, exaggeratedly and sighed, "Not having planned anything, that doesn't sound like me now, does it? Yes, I've made plans and no, I'm not telling you. It's a surprise." she said, unable to keep a quiet smile from playing on her face, her eyes twinkling in the soft candlelight. Why she had to blush, as he hand touched her hair, she did not know. But she wished that he would not notice it or else take heed and ignore the embrassing effect he had on her.

Biochemkris · 06-25-2004, 11:40 PM

"I don't generally care much for surprises," he said, a smiled creeping into his normally morose features. "But, for tonight... I suppose I can make an exception." He leaned in, putting a hand to her cheek and kissed her briefly on the lips.
