Lust

Chapter 2

Florence and Harry walked around the halls in silence. Not even a quick glance towards each other.

They finally arrived at Professor McGonagall's office.

"Come in," McGonagall shouted.

Florence walked in first and then came Harry behind her.

"So what is this foolishness I've been hearing about?! You guys arguing? Threatening one another? Throwing OBJECTS?" McGonagall scowled.

"This is absolute madness!"

The two students then looked down at the ground in embarrassment and guilt. Florence fiddling with her fingers. Harry just simply staring at his shoes.

"This rivalry between you two, gone for far too long. This needs to end immediately, for your peers' sake AND yours as well," the professor scolded.

"Yelling and using foul language during class? Why and when would we say that to our fellow classmate, Mr. Potter?!"

"And Miss Lupin, we never, I mean NEVER, condone violent acts, especially when it involves other students getting hurt!"

"But I-"

" 'But' nothing! There is nothing to excuse what you two have done. Especially when it's mentally, emotionally, and physically hurting others," McGonagall interrupted Florence.

"So I have no other choice than to give you both detention. 2 weeks.." McGonagall monotoned.

"WHAT?!" Harry and Florence both said in unison.

"Yes. Tomorrow you will start your days."

Both students looked at each other in utter disbelief.

"I'm sorry professor but if I almost threw a BOOK at him, how do you expect me to stay in a room with him alone?!" Florence defended.

"Exactly. I can't even be on a train with her, how will I be able to be alone with her?!" Harry added.

"You won't just 'stay in a room'," she chuckled. "You two will have jobs to do during these 14 days. You'll help fix books in the library, clean empty classrooms, help the house-elves, and more!"

Florence's mouth dropped an inch and Harry furrowed his eyebrows.

"I shall say no more! Remember, tomorrow," the professor said as she pushed them out of her office.

They then started walking to their study hall that was after Potions class.

"I can't believe that little twat got me detention! If he didn't fucking provoke me, I wouldn't have thrown the bloody book at him," Florence ranted to Meredith as she rested her chin on her palms.

"Flo, it really wasn't that serious. I mean, you guys argue all the time but book-throwing was a stretch," Meredith said while trying to somewhat comfort their friend.

"He just makes me- ugh- I don't even know how to explain it! He acts like he's all that because of You-Know-Who and he gets all these bloody privileges that he doesn't deserve and-"

"Um, you worry about him too much. He barely talks unless you do, same thing with you. It's like you guys ignite something in each other. He'll breathe and you'll get mad. You'll lift nothing but your pinky finger and he'll fill with anger. What the hell is up with you guys?!" Meredith bursts.

"I-erm- don't know.. he just.."

"Just what??"

"Ugh," Florence sighed and finally rested her head into her arms onto the Great Hall table.

"Get your shit together, Florence. I am, and I can speak for the entire school, sick of your guy's bickering. So please, for the love of Merlin himself, MAKE UP!" Meredith demanded.

"Oh no aha. I don't think so.." Florence sassed.
