MInerva entered the headmaster's office to play there usual chess game. when she walked in Albus was already setting up the chess board.
"Hello, Albus, ready to lose again?" Minerva said with a smile and sat in a armchair across from the headmaster.
"on the contrary, my dear, for I have been practicing."
"Then this shall be fun. I can picture the look on your face when you realize all that practace went to waste"
"Oh! so you believe you can beat me, my dear?"
"To be honest, yes."
"Then I think a bet would be nice."
"Albus! That is very childish."
"Exacly!"
"And what shall the childish bet be?"

'If I win, you will agree to acompany me, and the students on a trip to the seaside.'
'Honestly, Albus! Don't you think we both have enough to do already?'
'Yes, that's why we need a little holyday. And, if I lose...Well you chose'
'Realy? Anything?'
'Anything.'
'If you lose...You will rise my sallary.' said minerva with a smug look.
The headmaster laughed.
'Is money all you think of? Your sallary's already huge, in my opinion. I can hardly afford you'
It was her turn to laugh.
'That's because I'm so good. Realy, the buget is enormous. I know you're rolling in the galeons, Albus Dumbledore!'
'Oh...fine. But you won't win.'
'That's to be seen.' she said sitting down.

the game went on for what felt like hours. Finally Minerva sat up in her chair and look closely at the board.
"It seems we have a draw, Albus."
"Really! Well I guess nether of us win!"
"So thats it?"
"We could play another game, if you wish?"
"But Albus, it is almost ten thirty!"
"Oh why not one more game. What is the harm? Sometimes we would play to midnight."
"Fine, one more game and the bet will stay the same?"
"If you wish." Now Albus was resetting the chess board.
"Well... I was thinking about what you said earlyer, about how i get a resonable amount of money already. So, how about instead you have to acompany me to the Hogsmead visit this Saturday."
"Why would you want me to come with you to Hogsmead?" Albus said, while making the first move.
"You said yourself that we could use a break and you haven't been to Hogsmeed for a long time." Minerva was now makeing her first move.
"Alright then, but I still believe that I am going to win."
"Believe what you want but I asure you I shall win."

It's not like...public and it's starting to really hurt...' 'Yes, of course i don't, my dear' She unpinned it and her dark brown hair fell down her sholders, to the waist. she sighed contently. He gaped. 'What? Why are you looking at me like that?' she snapped 'Like...how?'

"With that look, like... you seen something-"
"beautiful?" Albus did see something beautiful. Minerva. She always had her hair up, to be proper, and it is very rare for her to let her hair down. Albus couldn't help but look at her, also the moon caught her eyes to make them sparkle.
"Well," Minerva was speechless. Did Albus say she was beautiful? He did always say how he felt or what he was thinking, "sort of, yes."
With that Minerva made her move and Albus, still staring at Minerva, made his move. But he didn't realize that he had just opened a move for Minerva to call check-mate.

"Gotcha-Checkmate." Minerva said softly. But it was evident that neither she nor Albus really cared about the game anymore. They had more important matters to discuss.
"Yes Minerva McGonagall, I think you are more beautiful than you or anyone else gives you credit for. Beautiful in ways most people cannot even comprehend, let alone appreciate. I understand if you do not return my feelings, but know this; In my eyes you take the concept of love and redefine it entirely."
Minerva hardly dared to breathe. Her whole body stiffened and pulsated with panic and sadness. "Albus..." she whispered. "I-I care very deeply for you and would love to spend an eternity in your arms. But we can't be together. We can't."
The shock on Albus' face was too much. Minerva crumpled up and shook silently as hot tears soaked the front of her robes.
Albus was indeed dumbfounded. He loved her-and she loved him, that had been communicated clearly. What on earth could be stopping her that was putting her in so much pain? Albus banished the chessboard and table in between them as he hastened to her side and enveloped her in the safety of his embrace. She lifted her head up and gazed at him, her eyes filled with pain and longing and...fear.
"Minerva, what is it?" he asked her desparately. She couldn't handle it anymore. She fully gave in and placed her head on his shoulder, gripping onto him as if for dear life. Two words passed in agony from her lips as her body completely fell limp and her consciousness left her.
"Lucius Malfoy."

well..round robin means anybody can continue and it's more fun that way.
'Pardon? Lucious Malfoy? You can't be serious.' He looked very blanck, patting her on the back awckwardly as she went on sobbing. He had not a hint, the slightest hint at what was going on. He knew Lucious Malfoy, he could hardly say he liked him,stuck up blond bugger he was and a stinking deatheater, and as far as he was awear also married. Well, he could see him cheating on his wife with an older woman, but really, Minerva didn't even seem to like him. 'So... he said rather coldly, you are having an afair with this man?' McGonagall stopped sobbing rather taken aback. 'Oh, God, no.' she disssed hurriedly, sobbing eaven lowder. Er...handkercheef, dear? She blew her nose, and wiped her eyes, sitting back. 'Oh, not me, Albus, YOU.' she said getting up. 'They say you like young boys, so I sugest you sattle for them , will you? 'Night'

I think she meant was that Albus should settle it for them. As in put the record strait.
"It would be my please to show you and set the record strait once and for all," Albus said brushing his fingers across her cheek.
"Truth be told I am actually quite smitten with my beautiful transfigurations mistress and have sadly been since way before then," Albus chuckled. "wha..what do you mean," Minerva questioned trying to hind the flush working its way across her neck and face.
"would it be terrible of me to admit that I found myself in love with a young seventeen year old Gryffindor who had the most arresting green eyes,"Albus whispered into her ear making Minerva's heart hammer hard in her chest than it already was. "I love you Minerva and it would be my honor. That is as long as you are willing." Albus croaked out hoarsely with a devilish smile on his face as he started to redirect her toward his private chambers.
