Minerva woke up to find herself in the hospital wing. Slowly she began to remember what had happened before she fell asleep. She had fallen out of a tree. Albus had carried her to the hospital wing and just before the sedatives had made her drift into a deep sleep, he had leaned close and said "I' m here for you, love."
Love? Love. Yes, he had called her love. Why? Was he serious or was this simply the result of his caring nature trying to comfort her in her moment of weakness? It was then that she became fully aware that someone was holding her hand. Slowly she turned her head and her gaze fell upon one Albus Dumbledore sleeping soundly in a chair pulled close to her bedside. She smiled to herself as she watched him sleep.
Minerva tried to place her feelings for this man. As a student, she had found him intriguing, but hard to depend on. The final straw was when he left for the war against Grindelwald without any notice and put her entire animagus training in jeopardy. Looking back now, she saw how her own adolescent selfishness had clouded her judgment.
In the past few days she had come to see a host of other things which made him seem… well… attractive. He had been so sweet and supportive with her after her first class. During their chess game, he had proved to be quite a conversationalist as well as an intellect, transfixing her with stories of all sorts. The most mundane of events seemed like adventures when told by Albus. He also seemed so helpful. He had left a meeting with the headmaster in order to keep her from a very embarrassing situation. Albus was starting to seem like a wonderful man. Her mind toyed with this idea as Albus began to wake up.
“Good afternoon, Miss McGonagall”
She blushed lightly. “Hello, Albus.”
Glancing at his watch he stood to leave.
And then something happened.
He had simply meant to kiss her hand, but as he bent to do so, he caught a glimpse of her lips and before he could think he was only a few inches from her face. He was just going to kiss her forehead, but those lips looked so tempting. It was only going to be a quick peck on the cheek, but her full, red lips were so close.
He didn’t make it to his next thought. He didn’t make it to his rescheduled meeting with Armando either.

Evil cliffie! Did he not make it because they kissed, or because Minerva hit and or hexed him?

I vote for the kiss, not the hexing! lol
Lovely. It was just so sweet. I loved that he stayed and was holding her hand. I can't wait to see more! Thanks so much for sharing!

Lovely update!
Wild guess - they kissed... then she hexed him... then they kissed again...
It was a wild guess anyway, of course they kissed!

“Albus Dumbledore, what do you think you are doing?” Armando Dippit was furious. He had no problem with inter-staff relationships as long as professionalism and discretion was exercised. Neither was evident here. There was his new Transfiguration professor nestled comfortably in the arms of his deputy asleep in a bed in the hospital wing. “Albus, wake up!” he growled as his deputy opened his eyes. “When you have a moment, I would like to speak to you as soon as possible.”
“I’m sorry I missed our meeting,” Albus said sheepishly.
“It isn’t just the meeting, Albus. You also missed dinner and, far more importantly, you weren’t found by me. Our three other young professors found you two and they immediately came to me. If I had been the one to stumble upon you two, it would be different, but now there is a report – a actual report – being filed on both of you. Now I suggest that you remove yourself from that bed before a student finds you.” Armando grumbled, getting steadily angrier. “I’ll never begin to understand how you alleged mind works. Now come on. We have to get the disciplinary action sorted out.” Albus paled. “Yes Albus, since someone reported the two of you to me, I will have to take some type of action. Your new friend will most likely be dismissed.” Albus drew her closer to him in a subconscious attempt to protect her. Minerva responded by snuggling up to him and smiling in her sleep.
“Why would you sack her? If there is someone to blame, it’s me,” Albus begged. He softly kissed Minerva’s forehead, earning him another snuggle.
“Because you’re much harder to replace.” Armando had never liked to dance around facts – he stated them simply. “Besides, how would you ever get another job when ‘Hero of Our Age Takes Advantage of Drugged, Vulnerable Woman’ is plastered across the cover of every paper in the wizarding world.”
“Drugged? She seemed very conscious at the time.” Albus could not believe what he had done. Had he actually forced her to do this? It was possible. She had been cornered. Also, since she had broken her ankle when she fell out of the tree, she couldn’t run. He made a move to get up, but she held him tight and murmured “Don’t leave me,” and it was now him who was being held captive. Armando had to smile.
“Didn’t you find it odd that she hasn’t woken up yet even though we’ve been arguing all this time. She was under sedation. She was woken up for a few moments by the mediwitch. Apparently you were asleep in the chair like a gentleman then. She must have stayed awake for a few minutes after the mediwitch had given her more anesthetic. Albus, I’m not going to do or say anything until I have a chance to speak to all of you who are involved, but please, take this time to think.” With that he left, hoping the Albus and Minerva would both be in one piece when he next saw them. He hadn’t meant to seem as harsh as he had, but the idea of being swamped with owls from parents about this incident was too much to bear. This would also test his deputy’s affections for the pretty young witch in his arms. He may not have had a problem with the romances which occationally bloomed between staff members, but Hogwarts’ Staff Conduct policies did, and Armardo Dippit did not take ignoring school rules lightly.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Ok now I feel better. There is no way Minerva didn't want him to be there, I just hope he realizes that too! This was a sweet chapter even if Armando is making me scream!
Thanks for sharing! I look forward to your next update!

He had left her. Without a word or a note. He'd just left her. That in and of itself need not surprise Minerva. It did hurt though, and it brought to light all of the things he had disliked about him as a student as well as a few new dislikes she'd developed in the past few days. The big shock came over the next few days. Albus completely pushed her away. He wouldn't speak to her. He avoided her at meals and in the halls. She had felt something in the kiss they'd shared, of that she was sure, but now it was as if he was wishing he'd never met her. What had she done? she wondered.
Her professional life was not fairing any better. Her student mistreated her daily, often reducing her to tears after her class was over. She longed for his gentle touch and reassuring words. After two weeks of this treatment and after what was by far the worst class she'd ever taught, she tearfully began penning her letter of resignation to Headmaster Dippit. She was so engrossed in what she was doing that she did not notice her visitor until she felt a pair of small arms wrapped around her shoulders.
"Please don't leave us, professor," Lily Evans whimpered.

Awh, poor Min, that must be horrible to deal with. Poor Albus, I can't imagine how guilty he must feel but I wish he would talk to her! I hope Lily makes her feel better! I'm glad you didn't forget about us!
