When Hell Froze Over

By loralee

The students of Hogwarts were in fear of their lives. Professor Snape had

been terrorizing most of them for years, but now he was laughing. For two

solid days, every time Snape had been seen, he was chuckling, smiling or out

right laughing with glee.

Snape's good humor had started on Friday. He had been snarling his way

across the grounds when he saw Hagrid lose his hold on Fluffy's leash and

the huge 3 headed dog had sprinted after a dark form. By the time Snape had

made his way to the scene Hagrid was trying, unsuccessfully, to separate

Fluffy from another dog he was trying to mount. Snape sneered at first

until he managed to identify the other mutt. Sirius Black, animagus, was

wiggling under the massive bulk of Fluffy, emitting desperate whines and

growls. Snape thought briefly of aiding Hagrid, with a burst of water from

his wand but instead nodded to Hagrid and turned away with a huge grin on

his face, savoring the moment.
