Our little secret

Chapter 3

I had gotten out of the boy's room saying good morning to Fred before the others woke up and changed to my uniform in my dorm.I trudged to my DADA class early, hoping to get to know the teacher. I opened the door to reveal my god-father standing behind a desk arranging some books. I ran up to him and threw my hands around him "Remmy, what are you doing here" "I'm your new DADA teacher" I pulled away and looked at him in confusion "I'm so happy for you. Why didn't you tell me" "I tried to write a few letters but I got carried away" I nodded and hugged him again before walking to my spot as students started to flood in. Harry stood beside me and we shared a hug before focusing back on the class.

Only when a student had mentioned it did I look over to see a wardrobe that was, shaking? "Would anyone like to venture a guess to what is inside, perhaps you Miss Potter" I flashed a small sarcastic smile and looked at Herry to see if he knew the answer but he just shrugged, I sighed and said the first answer that came to my mind from what I remembered from our curriculum "Um, a boggart sir?" He smiled and nodded "Verry good, Miss Potter" I bowed and fiddled with my wand a little bit. "Now can anyone tell me what a boggart looks like" Hermione's hand shot up and she was called "Boggarts are shapeshifters . They take the form of whatever they think a person fears the most" Hermione started explaining and by the bored look on everyone's face this happened often "So terrifying, yes, luckily there is a very simple charm to repel boggarts. Now we shall practice it. Wands out" I stopped fiddling with my wand and held my wand properly. "Ophe" Harry nudged me sending me a small smile "Riddikulus!" most of the class yelled back. And that most did not include Malfoy "This class is ridiculous" 

Neville had gone first changing Professor Snape into Professor Snape with his grandma's clothes, everyone behind him ready for their turn. Harry stepped forward and like instinct both Remus and I looked at each other and then Harry and yanked him out of the line "I uh. sorry "I let go of his hand and pushed my way to the back of the class but before I stepped out Draco grabbed my arm trying his best to his hide our linked hand and whispered in my ear "What was that about?" "I was assuming it was going to be..." I didn't say the last word as I knew he had gotten my point. Nodded and squeezed my hand in assurance

It had been almost a week since Remmy's class and I made a mental note to see him in private to ask about my boggart, but today I was spending the day with Fred and George, I had grown fond of them don't get me wrong their obsession with pulling pranks on me was annoying but I loved them especially when they allowed me to play pranks with them once in a while "Come on" Fred said pulling me excitedly into the snow and. We tripped down the hill rolling down on top of each other. I turned around to see George making a snowman and Fred helped me up and pulled me to help George 

After a few minutes in the snow, Fred and George help me up as we walk to the three broomsticks, I tipped my head on the wall "Tired already?" Fred asked laughing I shook my head in a chuckle "not at all, just thinking" George's eyebrows knitted together "About what" I looked at the table and drew invisible circles with my nails "Sirius Black" George reached his hand across the table and over mine and Fred put his arm around my waist and pulled me to him as butterflies erupted in my stomach"He's after me you know, Harry and I actually. But something else is bothering me" "If he tries to do anything to you, I promise we'll pull such a prank on him he'll return himself to Azkaban" I laughed at Fred and leaned in closer to him "Freddie meant if he tries anything to you and Harry. Right?" Fred scowled at George playfully

"Hermione, Parvati!"I shouted swiftly making my way down the stairs and into the common room "I'm going for a walk by the black lake. I'll be back soon"  A warm hand grabbed my own "Where are you going?" "I need some air" I said as I kissed his palm playfully and walked away
