The Art Of Falling/ JP

4

Potions was the only class that Cally shared with her Hufflepuff friends. She found it very unfortunate to share only one class and that be the potions.

Zelda and Zoe weren't very good at it and Cally and Callum were trying their hardest but it still wasn't their best subject.

That's why the four was very happy when Lily Evans joined their potions geoup for fourth year. Zoe and Zelda were already friends with her from their previous encounters and Callum didn't seem to mind the girl.

At the begging of the year, Zelda warned the redhead about one certain Potter boy's mention. She just wanted to get over him in her fourth year and as the one who started it all, she wanted Lily to stop as much as she could.

Even though Lily respected that request, she wouldn't not blow the flames higher when the Marcy girl made a mistake mentioning the boys name. But that would only last for so long.

Cally whined at the sight of the smushed scarab beetles that were showed right in front of her face "Ugh stop being so disgusting and get these things out of my face or i'll barf on your face."

"Go on, shout all you want. Wonder what Lupin will think hearing all your barf comments." Callum said laughing.

"Let it go Cal. Clearly she needs to remain cool in classes this year. Let her have this one. That way we might actually be able to get her off our arses." Zoe joked.

"What are you guys referring to?" Lily asked, which she regretted very quickly because of the reaction Zelda gave.

"Oh my god! Don't you know? Lupin is flirting with Cal. I mean Cally. We're trying to set them up for good." said breathlessly the girl.

"Wait what? That is actually a thing? I thought i was making things up in my mind and was crazy! So you guys do have something going on!" said the red haired girl.

"No, Zel stop spreading those bullshit! There's nothing going on with me and Remus. We're just good friends i hope. He doesn't fancy me and i'm definitely not dating him." Cally defended herself.

"They both fancy each other they just don't know it yet." Callum whispered to Lily, making her giggle.

After the bell rang, the potions group threw themselves out of the classroom while Cally threw herself on Callum. The boy caught her legs carrying her on his back while dropping most of his stuff.

"Oh great now i dropped my quill. Z, will you get it for me." the tall boy asked.

There was a chaotic scene in the hallways. A bright red haired boy with a girl on his back dropping stuff as he walks and two girls tidying his stuff up from the hallways right after him.

When they finally got to the great hall for dinner, they packed some corn bread and chicken in napkins and went to the garden to enjoy the good weather.

Cally was enjoying her very blunt sandwich when she caught a pair of eyes staring at her.

Severus Snape was staring at her with a disgusting snicker on his face. Cally hardly swallowed her bite before her face dropped.
