Remus Lupin (pt.2)

Your POV

Tick tick tick.

The soft picks of an owl taping at my window, signaling I have letter. Opening the window letting in the grey bird in. "Thank you." I gave the owl a crumb from my sandwich and taking the letter from their leg.

Dear (y/n),
I'm in the shrieking shack for my 'problem'. The full moon is early this month. As in five days early. So please help me!
Sincerely,
Remus Lupin

I fold the paper and laid it on my desk. Quickly pulling the cauldron out of my closet, I start the potion.

"It will take 4 days to brew." I muttered.

I gather the ingredients and start the dicing and mushing. Knock knock. "Come in!" I say still having most of my attention to my potion.

"(Y/n), I need your help for another professor at this school. I know you have Professor Lupin's problem in your hands, but after your done, I'll need you to fill in for Snape again." Dumbledore said walking in. "Yes Professor Dumbledore. I'll get to it when the potion starts to boil, then what should I go to the dungeon for the Potions class?" I stirred the goopy green concoction. "At 2:45 pm sharp." Dumbledore walked out.

"Hello everyone. Settle down now." You walked seeing paper airplanes and levitating cauldrons in the air.

"Yes Draco?" As Draco Malfoy immediately raised his hand. "Why are you still teaching at this school?" He sneered. "Well Mr. Malfoy, I'm gifted in all subjects at this school for young minds like yours that need developing." I said laying out my book.

"Wait till my father here's this." He whispered to Goyle.

3 days later...

"Remus!" I yelled having the perfect potion in a bottle for him. "In here!" A soft croak from the other room. "Oh dear! I'm so sorry I couldn't get the potion in sooner, but the brewing time." I pulled out a cloth and pat Remus's forehead, that's covered in sweat.

"It's fine (y/n). At least you got it in." He smiled softly.

"Maybe after...I can take you to our place?" He smiled, immediately feeling better.

"I will check my grading schedule, but I think I can fit you in." I winked, leaving the shrieking shack.
