Today was Saturday. Which meant that all of the students and teachers had today and Sunday off to do whatever they wanted to. Olive decided to spend her morning in bed, thinking about the man she loves-Gellert Grindelwald.

These days the strength of the love potion was very weak. The potion can take a long time to ware off and clearly this one had lasted ages, but it was finally coming to an end. Even though the need for Grindelwald's affection was leaving Olive's mind, she still missed him.

After a while of rolling back and forth in bed Olive decided to get dressed and sit at her desk. She thought that she should distract herself from the very obvious thing on her mind and mark some of her students parchment from the last lesson. She got out the pile of 25 sheets of parchment and started going through them, ticking and crossing each one. After she got through about 25% of the pile of parchment there was a knock on the door.

Before she could answer it, the door already swung open. It was Lucius Malfoy again. He walked right into the class room and used a spell to move all of the students desks to either side of the classroom so he had plenty of space to walk down the middle of the room towards Olives desk. Olive seemed unfazed by this as she already knew Lucius hated her now he knew the truth. She returned her gaze down at the parchment she was marking as he stood opposite her desk.

"Olive!"

Olive ignored him and seemed unbothered.

"You still love him?"

"Who?" She asked without meeting Lucius' eyes.

"You know who!"

"Lord Voldemort? Your master?" She joked.

"G-G-Gridnelwald."

Olive lifted her head and grinned. "What? You can't even bring yourself to say his name without stumbling?"

Lucius looked furious.

Olive stopped her grin and stared at him.

"You really love Grindelwald? The man that kidnapped you and separated us, left me for dead?"

"He didn't leave you for dead."

"Yes he did! I thought he was going to kill you... or hold you captive and then come back and do the same to me."

"Well he didn't. He let us go, didn't he? I honestly don't see why you are so upset, Mr Malfoy. Everything could have ended much worse." Olive then returned her eyes to the next parchment that needed marking.

"How dare you love someone like him? He has taken so many lives-"

"The last time I checked, Mr Malfoy, you have also taken many lives as a Death Eater. Am I not mistaken?"

Lucius didn't like his wrongs being pointed out at him, so this made him even more furious.

"Don't test me, Olive-"

"It's Professor Collins to you."

"Professor Collins...don't make me do something to you I'll regret later-"

Olive looked back up to him. He was sweating now.

"Like what, sir?"

"I'll- I'll- I'll banish you." Lucius got his wand out, but didn't point it at her.

"Banish me? From where? My place of work?"

"I'll make you get fired then you'll have to leave. Then I'll banish you from returning."

"Cool..." Olive didn't care. "If you banish me then I'll only go and be with Grindelwald and I'm sure that would really make your blood boil, wouldn't it? How's your wife anyway?"

"I told you, we are divorcing."

"Then go find a new one, Mr Malfoy." Olive yelled, looked up at Lucius then slammed the piece of parchment that was laying in front of her on the desk onto the pile of marked papers. She then stood up and leaned over her desk to get nearer to him. "Do whatever you like, sir, but don't moan at me if none of it goes your way." Olive then walked around her table and walked o the classroom door in a huff. Before she could leave, Lucius turned around and stopped her.

"I'll kill you if you walk out of that door and then- and then-." He hesitated. "And then I'll tell the whole wizarding world about yours and Grindelwald's secret love life and how Albus Dumbledore would be turning in his grave if he knew a traitor like you was working at his school!"

Olive stopped by the door and looked back at Lucius. "Like I care..." She then walked away and went to Remus Lupin's classroom.

She half expected Remus to be in there, but he wasn't. She rushed around, pacing left and right while she thought. She stared at the little red apple on his desk (The portkey). She didn't want to cause more trouble than what it was worth by going through, but she really did need to see her lover again- especially right now. She stopped pacing and stared at it. The apple was still shiny and red and almost good enough to eat. She thought through a couple of the possible pros and cons in her mind and then made her mind up; she'd touch it. Before going, however, she wrote a note telling Remus what she was doing and everything Lucius said to her (include his threats). Olive didn't write using her best handwriting, but wrote it neatly enough, so Remus would actually be able to read it. She then walked over to the apple and put the note down next to it. She took a deep breath then held her hand out towards it, every so slightly edging her hand closer to the apple until she was no longer in Remus' classroom anymore...
