Another 2 weeks goes by and it feels like I'm thinking a lot more about my time with snape and that was really what he wanted but I know he's looking at me more throughout lessons and during dinner. He has also taught me a lot during the detentions that most people in my year wouldn't learn till next year.
It's the fourth week back and I'm about to go to dinner when I feel something that is prying at my head and let it open and it's the visionary, it was in our living room of our old house this time with 4 people inside. 2 of these people seemed to be familiar even with the slight blurry vision but the other 2 where strangers to me. It was like I was just about to find out but was stripped of my eye sight right before I could see anything. I was then back in the room with my sight back, unsure of what to do I sit there for a moment before heading down to dinner.
I get there and find my friends sat halfway down not really paying much attention to anything. I then hear something 'hey you okay? You seem off' it sounded like Snape but he was sat at the teachers table and I just smile at him not sure what to do. 'Yeah just tired do you still need me after dinner' I say back wanting to know if I need a boost. 'Yes I'd like you help with grading' I loved how we communicated this way.
The dinner goes by and I barely eat thinking about the vision I've just had before I got here. Once I'm done I quickly nip to the bathroom right before I go to Snape's classroom. Giving myself a boost with some of my supply and waiting a minute to make sure that it hits and it does which is something I will take for the rest of the day and help.
As I arrive in the dungeons and look at my watch and find that it is 7:59 almost late but I knock on the door just in time. Usually he just says to come in but today he came to the door and opened it himself, he smiles that I have arrived as we have gotten quite acquainted since the assistant and the detentions. I walk in and he walks behind me all the way to his desk and we sit down.
"Right so I'll need help brewing potions for the hospital wing as madam pomfrey is low on a few potions." He says handing me a list of the required potions she needs. I look over the list and they seem pretty easy to make. "We will be gathering up the ingredients first and then get started and you will help me deliver hem tomorrow morning after breakfast so I will get you from your table." He says and I nod and take in that I might need to do my drugs before breakfast. I slowly stopped using the drugs when I'm coming to these detentions because I've become more and more comfortable around and don't feel the need for the drugs but I would occasionally still drink the alcohol.
We get started and laugh about the most stupidest stuff like muggles being so unaware of us and what we do, the fun activities we have and how different we are from them in general life. About an hour and half into it we here a knock at the door. "Come in" snape says and the fire opens up and it's dumbledore and pomfrey. Both here for different things.
"Severus, El don't worry we are here for different things. Pomfrey is here to check up on the potions she's asked for and well I'm here for a different reason" he says with a smile.
"How are the potions coming along." She asks with a lovely smile.
"They are doing great and we are on track to get them done by morning. We will drop them off in the morning after breakfast if that is okay with you." Snape says with a surprisingly nice tone but still monotone. But they are going extremely well and I'm glad I helped.
"Right good, thank you professor I see your helper has made good use for you. From what I've seen she's very bright and hard working and I'm surprised she still has hardly come to me for help from bullies" she says as if Hufflepuffs are the main people to get bullied.
"Excuse me but I put up a fight and can fend for myself quite well for being in my house and the fact that you seem like a Hufflepuff yourself" I say trying my hardest not be so mean. "I'm sorry that didn't mean for it come out as a threat or anything you just seem so kind" I say apologising
"No no it's okay no need to worry are you sure your meant to be in Hufflepuff you seem like you should be in ravenclaw or Gryffindor?" She asks giving me a questioning look.
"Well the hat did question me for a good 2 minutes which house I should be in but ultimately chose Hufflepuff because of how patient I was and how down to earth I was" I say remembering my time when I first arrived here. It was probably my most exciting day ever from my entire life. "It sort of did the same for my sister but she ultimately got ravenclaw which I think really suits her. I can't wait for my brothers to join and see where they get to" I say with excitement.
"Ah yes well I should probably get going now as I'm sure people are looking for me" she say goodbye and leaves the room. I look at Albus wondering what he wants.
"How is school going for you El? I've been hearing great things from your tutors" he says. Why would he be saying that in front of one of my tutors.
"I'm doing alright I guess and what great things have you been hearing and from who mustn't be Snape as he's right here." I say making him laugh a little.
"I've heard a lot of good things from snape actually but also all the other teachers too. Some believe that you could easily be on track to completing their classes by Christmas of your sixth year, and I believe they are correct with the work that they have shown me." He says and I look at him a little confused.
"But if I did what would I do instead of those lessons? Would I have free lessons most of my schedule would I get access to more advanced classes." I ask still a little confused.
"You would be able to become more full time assistant for snape if you wished or some tutor for the younger years. You could easily graduate by Christmas in all classes if you work hard enough and start working for either me or the ministry with references from all your tutors and snape being the main one as your his assistant" he said. I was so shocked by this I didn't have any words.
"Can I think about it." I ask and he nods.
"Of course just tell me by the end of the weekend and we can sort some study session with your teachers to be able to do this if you go through with it" he smiles and walks out saying goodbye. We finish up with small conversation about the top and I leave.
