The noise level will rise as students begin to look for their partners. "Guess you're my partner this time, Novak," Malfoy will smirk as he walks towards me.

"Lucky me," I will say sarcastically, plastering a fake smile on my face.

"Do you want to go first, or should I?" He will ask, pretending that he hadn't heard my remark.

"I'll go first," I will prepare my wand. "Locomotor Mortis!" I will cast the spell.

His legs will snap together, becoming stiff. He will topple over, unable to control his movements. After I do the counter-curse and he regains control of his limbs, he will get up, brushing the dust off of his robes.

"Not as bad as I thought it would be, Novak," He will raise his eyebrows. "My turn. Locomotor Mortis!" He will point his wand towards me before I even have time to process that he was casting his spell.

I will freeze up, the spell completely taking over my legs. I will fall over, hitting my head on the hard floor. Once he does the counter-course and I feel the magic leave my body, I will sit up, rubbing my head. "Ow."

"Oh no, did that hurt?" Malfoy will fake sympathy. "What a shame. Maybe that wouldn't have happened if you just agreed to be with me in Potions."

"Maybe I would've said yes if you weren't such a stuck up git," I will give him a sickly-sweet smile as I get up. "Why don't you find some other Gryffindor to bother next time."

"Maybe I will," Malfoy will scoff, his face reddening.

"Good," I will cross my arms. "Maybe you won't mess up your potion next time."

"Locomotor Mortis!" Malfoy will thrust his wand at me in an angry response.

I will fall to the floor again, my legs unable to move. "It wasn't even your turn," I will complain as soon as he does the counter-curse, rubbing my arm. "Unfair."

"You think I care, Novak?" Malfoy will scoff, eyeing me wearily.

"Just stop bothering me!" I will roll my eyes, tired of his annoying behavior. I would get along in life so much better if he stopped talking to me, but alas, that could only be a dream.

Malfoy's face will change from a scowl to a smirk, "I''ll leave you alone," He will agree. "On one condition."

"And that is?"
