wrong direction

After the holidays passed Remus had agreed to help Harry with his dementor problem, and Samantha told Remus she
would help him with the lessons.

She wanted to be there just in case something didn't go according to plan, but first she had to suffer through Potions.

"Ms. Potter can you tell me when will happen if you stir counter clockwise instead of clockwise." Snapes monotone voice asks her and Samantha looks up at Snape confused.

"No professor." She whispers and Snape scoffs in disappointment.

"If you want to have a career being an auror, I would stayed paying more attention in my class instead of day dreaming Ms. Potter." Snape says and Samantha nodded her head embarrassed.

Of course some kids snickered while all Samantha wanted to do was curl in a ball and disappear.

"It's okay, just ignore him." George whispers from beside her and she nods her head again, scared is she tried to talk her voice might crack.

The pressure of school had started to fall onto Samantha after the holidays passed. Her OWLS were in April, which was less then three months away, and she was growing anxious.

After Potions class George and Samantha started to walk towards the library so that she could help George with his transfiguration homework.

"What if I fail my OWLS? Snape was right I need to pass potions George, otherwise I can kiss my dream goodbye." Samantha pouts as she places her stuff at her regular table in the library.

George gives her a supportive smile and takes her hand in his giving it a small squeeze.

"Babe, everything is going to be alright. Just breath and most definitely ignore anything bad that comes out of Snapes mouth." George states and Samantha nods her head pulling out her transfiguration book.

"What are you doing tonight?" George asks and Samantha looks at George wondering what he was thinking of doing.

"I told Lupin I would help him with Harry's dementor lesson, but that should be done before dinner. Why what do you have planned?" Samantha asks George and he smirks at her making Samantha look at him confused.

"Well you see, I've been thinking of pulling a prank on our favorite potions teacher, and I could use a partner in crime." George says and a wide smile appears on Samanthas face.

Normally she wasn't one to partake in pranks with the twins, but she did however join in whenever they were pranking Snape.

"Oh I'm in." Samantha stated and George high fives her smiling widely, he was glad she agreed to join because he missed spending time with her.

He knew it wasn't intentional but ever since she started dating Fred, they haven't hung out as much and he missed her. So for her to agree to do this prank with him tonight made his day ten times better.

"Lets see what you have written so far." Samantha says smiling holding out her hand for George's paper.

George smiled sheepishly at her and digs in his bag handing her the crumbled up paper making her frown, "oh dear lord this is going to take a lot longer then I thought."

Samantha knocked on Professor Bins classroom door, apparently this was where Samantha was supposed to meet Remus to help him set up for Harry's dementor lessons.

The door opens and Remus smiles down at Samantha making her smile at him.

"Hello Moony, feeling better?" Samantha asks walking into the classroom, Remus chuckles and replies with a quick yes.
