A/N:: This idea came to me the other day when I saw an M&Ms commercial on TV, and I thought, "Ooh, I bet Albus would like M&Ms!" lol
FanFic 100 Challenge #:: 015- Blue
Minerva watched with utter intrigue and amusement as Albus plunged his hand into the full candy dish, taking out a handful of tiny brightly colored disk-shaped candies and popping them into his mouth. He smiled happily as he ate, looking quite like a young child enjoying himself in a candy store.
"Care for some?" Albus asked, offering Minerva the dish.
"What are they?" she asked. "Some kind of Muggle treat?"
Albus nodded enthusiastically.
"Look, Minerva, I think they came from outer space!" he said, pointing to the words Mars, Incorporated on the empty candy package.
Minerva scoffed, glancing distastefully at the candies.
"What are they called?"
"M&Ms," Albus replied before placing two blue candies in his mouth. "Here, please try at least one."
Minerva sighed as she picked out a nice-looking green one from the candy dish and bit into it. Surprisingly, it wasn't nearly as bad as she had expected.
"What do you think?" Albus asked anxiously, eyes twinkling brightly with delight.
"They're pretty good," she admitted reluctantly.
Albus nodded.
"Do you know what I like most about them?"
"That they're chocolate?" she asked. "Or perhaps simply because they're made by Muggles?"
"That's true," Albus chuckled, "But there's more to them than that. Look closely. What's written on each of them?"
Minerva leaned forward and looked closely at the M&Ms.
"The letter m."
"That's correct!" he said.
Albus picked up two of the candies and held them out to her.
"Whenever I see the letter m on the M&Ms, I think of you, Minerva."
Minerva could not refrain from laughing at this. These candies reminded him of her?
"And," Albus continued, "Look at the outer shell of the M&Ms. They're fairly solid, but when you bite into them, there's a smooth, sweet chocolate center."
"How does that remind you of me?" she asked.
Albus smiled her for a moment before replying.
"Don't you see?" he asked. "To others you may at first seem to be strict and inflexible at the surface, but to anyone who is willing to get to know you, they will find that you're truly a loving, caring person with a heart of gold."
Minerva opened her mouth for a moment, then closed it, and opened it again.
"Albus.." she said in almost a whisper, feeling her cheeks heat with color. "I do believe that is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me."
"Ah, but it is true, my dear."
Minerva smiled and leaned over to kiss him lightly on the lips. Never before had anyone ever likened Minerva to Muggle candies; never before would anyone ever be able to get away with it.
