TEXTA/N Part of a much longer story that I have since scrapped. Hopefully it makes enough sense by itself to qualify as fluff. Albus and Minerva have had something of a disagreement and have been sleeping in their own beds in their own rooms for the past few nights. Albus tried to make up with Minerva earlier in the day, but she wanted no part of it or him. The cause of the disagreement though immensely important to the longer story, was something incredibly trivial and is completely irrelevant to this.TEXT
As he began his preparations for bed that evening, Albus’s eyes kept wandering to the empty bed. It wasn’t the lovemaking he missed so much, though that was certainly more than enjoyable. Minerva could be so tender and passionate. She did so thrill and excite him.
But no, it was the after he really missed, the feeling of her satiated warmth beside him and the gentle sound of her purring in her sleep. He smiled at the thought of the habit she adamantly denied having. The smile quickly faded as he sank into the bed, alone again.
Yes, Minerva certainly was passionate – just not always about lovemaking. She could retain her anger and resentment quite well. He sighed to himself. What to do with her? So powerful, yet, so unwilling to acknowledge her own abilities.
He would give her some more time before he tried to approach her again. With a last look at the empty pillow next to him, he drifted off to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few hours later, he awoke in terrible pain. It felt as if someone were sticking pins through his nightshirt into his chest. As his eyes flew open, he relaxed and a smile came to his lips.
So nice to know, he wasn’t the only one missing someone tonight.
After a bit more clawing, Minerva turned once, tucking her tail around her and found a comfortable position on his chest. Before she closed her eyes, he reached up a hand to scratch behind her ears. Gently purring, she went to sleep.
Well, he had been missing her warmth and the sound of her purring. Not quite what he meant, but still a start. It certainly was an interesting relationship they had. With that last though and a final scratch to her, he returned to sleep as well.

Hurrah! You're here! Welcome! ;D Very nice fluff cookie. I like the mention of Minerva 'clawing' him; it's certainly a good way to get your annoyance across!

*laughs* I love you, so I'm going to claw you to death in your sleep! Are you going to write more or leave it as a one-shot?

This was a nice piece and I hope you continue or revise the original story. I agree with Jemma, it does seem like it's unfinished. Maybe we're all just junkies and we need more to satisfy our addiction?!?! I liked her clawing at his chest. ;D
Thanks for posting here! April

Heh Heh Heh! That's one painful way to wake up. I know because my cat has done that before. Minerva is almost ready to make up with him it seems, but she is going to do it on her terms, and make it a little painful as well. Cute story, I would really like to read the longer version and find out what trivial thing happened that got them so upset with each other. Hint, Hint.

Awwww okay I love this and I want no I demand more. Though a good cookie it seriously feels unfinished. The method of waking Albus is brilliant and I like the fact that though she came back it was on her terms. She got a little bit of vengeance and some well deserved petting. I would like to see more though.

That was so cute! I loved the way she clawed him in his sleep. However like many others I feel it needs continuing.. it would make a wonderful part of a longer fic. Well done, I really enjoyed reading this and hope it gets carried on!
