The Opposite~|A Neville Longbottom love story|~

Chapter 4: The First DADA Lesson

The students were walking through the corridors, to get to their first class of the day and the year. Draco was busy telling he was excited for their first class: DADA, also called Defence Against the Dark Arts.

Draco just wanted to get close to Umbridge for better grades and Daisy knew that. But, Daisy thought the same way as Draco, so she also wanted to get close to Umbridge. As Draco, Daisy, Blaise, Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle walked through the corridor, they walked pass Neville. As Daisy was the closest, she was told to push Neville's plant out of his hands. Even tho Daisy felt really bad, she did it anyway.

As Neville's plant was pushed out of his hands, he looked at it hit the ground. The pot was smashed and the dirt was everywhere. As Neville was busy picking up the pieces of the broken pot, he heard Daisy and the others laugh when they walked away, into the DADA classroom.

Then, someone kneeled down, helping Neville to pick up the mess. It was Luna Lovegood. She was one of his very dear friends. She was a Ravenclaw and she was.... herself. People called her 'Loony Lovegood'.

Neville looked at Luna with a thankful look. "No problem, Neville. I bet the Nargels will  hide the pieces, tho." Luna said, responding to Neville's look. Neville giggeled. Nargels. No one knew what they were. They probably didn't even excist. But, Luna believed in several creatures which didn't excist. And that made Luna... Luna.

"Let's go to class. We can't be late to our first class of the year. Especially not, considering the fact that our first professor is professor Umbridge." Luna said. She put the broken pot and the plant in her bag and walked to class. Neville quickly followed her.

Inside the classroom, the students all finally sat down. Professor Umbridge was giving each student a DADA book. 
"We won't be using any magic in this class." Umbridge said.
"But what about the danger outside Hogwarts? How are we going to defend ourselfs against that danger?" Someone said. Everyone turned to the voice and saw it was Harry.

"Mister Potter? And, what danger do you mean, exactly?"
"Oh, i dont know, maybe Lord Voldemort!"
The whole class gasped and started wishpering.
" He-who-must-not-be-named has not returned! Don't tell lies! Detention for you, Mister Potter."

Daisy giggeled.
"Oh, Harry! How could you go around spreding those rumors! He-who-must-not-be-named has not returned!" Daisy said.
"Good, Miss Potter. 15 points to Slytherin for Miss Potter who confirmed that her life-long enemy has not returned!" Umbridge proudly said. Daisy smirked at Harry. Harry just rolled his eyes.

And again. My sister is using her chrams to get her way again Harry thought. Umbridge started teaching.

After all the lessons of that day had been, Harry went to detention. He knocked on the door of Umbridge's office. When he walked in, he saw that the whole office was in pink. Umbridge also had loads of cat plates on her walls.

Umbridge was sitting behind her desk, drinking some pink tea. Harry sat down.
"You'll be writing some lines for me." Umbridge said
"What do you want me to write, professor?"
"Write the line 'I must not tell lies'."
Harry wanted to grab his quill, when Umbridge said: "No. You'll be using one of my quills."
She handed Harry a quill.
"How many times?" Harry asked.
"Until it sinks in."
Harry started writing. After a few times writing the line, Harry's other hand, started hurting. Harry looked at his hand. He was shocked by what he saw. He saw the line, 'I must not tell lies', carved in his hand. Then, Harry said that the message sunk in and left.

In the Slytherin common room, Daisy was braging about how she earned Slytherin 15 points. Draco was just proud. Crabbe and Goyle didn't have a opinion, ofcourse. Blaise and Pansy didn't say it, but they started to think that Daisy's braging was annoying.

Then, head of Slytherin house professor Severus Snape came in the common room. He came in on a very dramatic way. Draco said professor Snape always was like that. Snape just walked around, watching every move Daisy made, and then just left.

"And what was that all about?" Daisy asked. Pansy explained to Daisy that Snape loved her mom, Lily Potter, and that Snape blamed Daisy and Harry for Lily's death. Daisy laughed. "Professor Snape has been rejected by my mother? That is disgusting and funny at the same time! And now, many years after, he still loves her!? That's hilarious!" Daisy just laughed. The others quickly joined her.

Harry had told Hermione and Ron what happend. They found it awful.
"That woman, is cruel and mean. She really just gave you scars! I thought this was a school. Not a place for torture!" Ron said. He found it hard to believe they had a teacher like that. The job DADA teacher really was cursed. First Quirrel(died), then Lockhart(memory loss), after that Lupin(werewolf), then Moody(not the real one) and now they have Umbridge. Just a cursed job!
