Chapter 6 : Apple pie and hot chocolate

Charlotte was waiting for her friends at entrance of the dining hall when Minerva approached her, a stack of paper in her hands.

"Hello Charlotte, would you mind helping me hand out student's schedules ?"

"Of course, I'll help you." she responded, taking the schedules that Minerva was handing her.

She started roaming around the Gryffindor table, asking students if they knew the person to who she had to hand the schedule when she heard a the voices of Harry and Ron, Hermione standing by them.

"What do you mean, to not attract attention ? Oh hey Charlotte !" Ron exclaimed, mid laughing.

But before she could say anything Ron almost cried out, gaining a nudge in the arm by Hermione and a dirty look from a group of Ravenclaws who were reading a book.

"WAIT" he looked at Charlotte with hope in his eyes, "You're a member of the order, so.. you know what's going on with Hagrid..." Hermione and Harry were now looking at her with the same look as Ron.

Charlotte groaned, "He's on a mission." Harry tried to argue into getting more information before she cut him out, "And that's all I'm telling you lot" Ron protested under his breath and Harry pouted. "Hermione can you help with the schedules ? I don't know any of the students and class starts in an hour."

Hermione nodded and started to deliver schedules to Gryffindor students while eating some toast Charlotte would make her while she met and talked to some teenagers. Her favorites so far were Luna Lovegood, Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnigan who she was pretty sure were dating.

Soon all the students were going to class and Charlotte decided to follow a group of Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs to Potion class, much to the dislike of Severus. Then to Charms where she helped some first years. It was time for lunch after this class so Charlotte headed to the dining hall were she ate with the twins and Lee Jordan. They had had a class with frog face and they were not happy. After lunch she headed to an astronomy class which she decided was her favorite before heading to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

When she entered, students were already sitting at their desks, she recognized Harry, Ron and Hermione. Books were floating to the desks and frog face cleared her throat, getting the attention of Charlotte who slowly lifted her head at the pink lady.

"Hello Miss Brown, may I help you ?"

"Hello Dolores, I'll just watch this class." she answered, getting one of the fake smile from Dolores. She then proceeded to summon a chair with her wand, under the watch of astound students, and sat on it.

"Very well. I would like you all to open your books page five and read the first chapter. There will be no need to talk." she said. The students started to open their books and read except Hermione who had her hand in the air, a determined look fixed on the professor.

"Excuse me Dolores, but I think Miss Granger has a question." Charlotte spoke out loud, knowing very well that frog face was ignoring the girl. Hermione sent her a grateful look and the professor looked at Charlotte then at Hermione.

"Do you have a question about the chapter Miss Granger ?" the professor asked Hermione, like she just noticed her.

"No, not about the chapter-" she tried to continue but was interrupted by Dolores ;

"For now we are reading the chapter. If you have any other questions, we will wait the end of the class to answer them."

"I have a question about your teaching objectives."

"Well, Miss Granger, it seems to me that those objectives would be perfectly clear if you took the trouble of reading the book I just gave you." answered frog face, smiling determined at Hermione.
