"One minute left." 

     "Just one more drop. . ." Y/N steadied her hand as she made the potion.

     "Perfect, now stir clockwise 28 times."

 "Your time is up."

     "Good, I just finished."

Severus Snape, Y/N's godfather, collected her potion and inspected it before he put three drops of it in her morning cup of coffee.

      "Drink," he said, handing her the cup.

"You don't trust me enough for you to take my potions," Y/N frowned, taking it.

     "We will be going to Diagon Alley and I expect to see people who I couldn't care less about." 

"Fair enough," Y/N concluded and finished her drink before saying, "It really does go with any drink."

     "Alright, answer me this," Snape asked, "how long does the potion last?

"One hour."

     "What did you do to make it so that it was ready within the span of an hour?"

"28 drops of aging potion."

     "Name a magical herb that allows one to breathe underwater?"

"Gillyweed." 

     "Alright, two more. When did the muggle books The Shining and It come out? And who wrote them?" 

"The Shining  was released on January 28, 1977, It  was released on September 15, 1986. The author of the books is Stephen King."

     "Correct." Snape smiled slightly. 

"As smart as her mother, with or without the potion." 

     "I'll put the potion stuffs away and get ready to go," Y/N said, bringing Severus back to reality. 

"Good," he said and went to his room, going to get ready but thinking of Lily.
