We all sat down for lunch at the end of the slytherin table.
"So how was your morning y/n?" Enzo said
"It's been interesting, very different from my last school" I said
"Yeah also found out that potter here isn't scared of anything" Mattheo spat out
Suddenly all of my friends head snapped in my direction
"What do you mean you're not scared of anything?" Pansy said in a louder tone
"Well, in defence against the dark arts class we were learning about a thing called a boggart and well when it came to me it just disappeared" I explained acting shocked
"Wow I've never heard anything like that before!" Malfoy said excitedly
"That's what lupin said but you know I'm here for breaking the 'normal' rules not everyday a potter is sorted into slytherin" I said with a mischievous tone
Everyone laughed or giggled at the comment part from one boy who stared at me with no emotion. No guesses on who could that be.
I met his gaze and said "take a picture it will last longer"
I heard alot of sniggers and ohh shits from the group
"I think you've met your match here riddle" Malfoy whispered loud enough so I could hear
"Don't get ahead of yourself princess you don't know the meaning of challenging yet" Mattheo said with a smug grin.
The bell rings for the end of lunch and I look at my timetable..... potions with slughorn
We all started to walk down the hall when I realised that most of us had the same class which will be great for a future study day.
Pansy, Theo, Enzo, Mattheo and myself all walked in and sat on a big table together. I went to sit down next to Pansy but Theo beat me to it so the last remaining seat was in-between Enzo and Mattheo great another half a day of trying to get under this boys skin.
"Afternoon class now please step forward and come around this cauldron"
We all made our way to the front of the classroom and stood together in a small group to the right. Pansy and myself were stood in front of Enzo, Theo and Mattheo.
"Right class can anyone tell me what is in this cauldron?"
"Thats Amortentia, sir. The most powerful love potion in existence. Smelling different to each person according to what they find attractive, the potion was considered to be dangerous as it could induce obsessive infatuation in the unsuspecting drinker." I said with confidence
"That's correct miss?"
"Potter. Y/n Potter"
"Ahhh Harry's sister now that explains a lot your brother is one of my best students and I'm sure you'll be following in his path. 10 points to Slytherin"
I got a few looks and cheers from the Slytherins in the class but I felt a whisper in my ear
"What else are you hiding from us potter"
I turned around with a smug face "wouldn't you like the know"
"Right is anyone willing to come up and give a smell?" Slughorn announced
Nobody moved but I felt slughorn gaze on me. Please don't please don't please don't
"Well potter seems you guessed it correctly please come up and tell us what you can smell"
Oh lord kill me now
I walked up slowly and smelt the potion facing away from everyone. This will give me a chance to lie if needed
"I smell lavender and freshly cut grass sir"
And turned back to the group. If anyone knew me well enough that this was a lie of course I smelt freshly smoked cigarettes and the forest.
"Well done now will anyone else like a go" slughorn countied his conversion when I felt the presents of the familiar smell
"Are you sure that's what you smelt princess, you looked like you lied to everyone here but I can see right through you. I know you want me" He said in a low husky voice that made my stomach go in a knot.
Fuck sake y/n keep your cool.
I was snapped back to reality when slughorn held up a vile.
"This little vile is called Veritaserum is a colorless, odorless potion that forces the drinker to tell the truth. This will be the prize for the best student who can create their version of the living death. Which can be found on page 23 in your books..... get on with it"
We all went back to our tables and started to make the poison.
"Right one of us has to win this! it will be amazing if we had veritaserum for our truth or dare game later" Pansy said very excited
We all smiled and worked hard helping each other so hopefully one of us wins it.
After an hour of hard grafting I put my hand up to intercalate I was finished. I sorta remembered how to make the poison from my last school so i think I got everything right.
Slughorn came over and dropped a little leaf in it and watched it burn
"Oh my word I haven't seen a perfect version since your brothers last year. Congratulations y/n here is your prize"
He handed me the little vile and the whole table smiled and congratulated me.
"That might of been a mistake for you princess" Mattheo said so nobody else could hear.
