Denial is First Step to Acceptance

7. Amortentia

ALRIGHT. ITS UP :DD i know, i should be writing to extend 'Truth or Dare', but i have MANY QUESTIONS i want all of you guys to answer, ASAP. thanks yakisoba for doing it (:

1) Should that (soon to be) 'Chapter' be at the start, or the end?

2) A few character ideas?

3) Maybe enter it in Watty Awards (later)? [although i highly doubt it would even get far :S]

Okay, now, i should stop, and let you enjoy the next chapter, Amortentia.

Over the year, I slowly forgave him (Although I didn’t understand why it made me so angry to see him with another girl), and we became extremely close friends. As happy as I was, I couldn’t forget that memory, and to be honest, for some reason, it felt like the worse memory. And so, with the marauders united, we continued to do what we did best: Pranking.

In my 3rd year (Remus, James and Sirius’s 4th year), our 20th prank was unfolding; they were planning on feeding all the teachers, and professor Dumbledore, Veratsium. Inspired of course, by me.

Potions with old Sluggy was after breakfast.

“Good morning class! Here, are three pots filled with potion. Can you identify each one?” Slughorn said cheerfully.

Lily, Remus, James, Snivillus and I raised our hands.

“Lily! Of course she knows! Favourite in the class! Smartest, and very pretty If I must say so... although she can have a fiery temper.” Sluggy boomed. Lily blushed. “Well, which one dear Lily?”

“The murky brown one is Polyjuice potion, a potion which enables you to take the appearance and voice of another person.” Lily said promptly. I smiled at her encouragingly and she grinned back.

“Correct Miss Evans! 10 points to Gryffindor” Slughorn said. “You may pick a partner and attempt to brew it. Anyone else?”

Lily walked over to Snivellus and the started their potion. I sniggered at James, who had put down his hand onto the table in fists and his face contorted in fury.

“Yes Mister Lupin?” Slughorn said.

“The clear one is Veratsium, the truth telling potion.” Remy said.

“Yes indeedie Remus m’boy! Go pick a partner and brew” Professor said. “Miss Potter?”

“It’s Amortentia, love potion” I said, as Remus beckoned for James to sit next to him.

“Yes, everyone go pick a partner and go brew a potion. I'm quite surprised that someone who barely listens in class actually realises what it is miss potter!” He said.

I needn’t have moved because I was already sitting next to Sirius, so I leaned over and asked him to be my partner.

“ Knew you couldn’t resist” he winked. “I’ll go get the ingredients shall i?”

I laughed as I watched him go to the store cupboard. His walk was interesting; it was like a male cat walk, but at the same time, looking like he hasn’t a care in the world. That walk made him look hotter that usual. Without realising, I was staring at Sirius and suddenly snapped to life when Sirius turned and looked at me, his evil grin or satisfaction on his face.

“I see you couldn’t keep your eyes off me.” Sirius whispered in my ear when he came back with the supplies. I felt a refreshing shiver down my spine.

“you wish” I whispered in my most sexiest voice, purposely making my tongue touch his cheek. Hmm. Tastes like citrus and cream.

“Man, that voice was awesome! Do it again! AGAIN!” Sirius said excitedly like a 5 year old. Then he added in his own sexy whisper, “I wouldn’t mind another lick. Maybe on the lips this time”
