Back to where it all began (Maraduers era/James Potter love story)

chapter 3

                                        

It's been 2 days since I overheard Dumbledore and McGonagall's conversation, I was getting worries as to why Potter and Black wanted me? At this moment Harry and I were walking to D.A.D.A, for some reason we have very class together. It's like all the professors want to keep an eye on us. Even professor Snape is keeping an eye on us (mostly me), I've always been his favorite student but I don't know why. We made it to class before anyone else so we can help my dad set up.

"Mornin' dad!" I sang into the empty class room, I heard banging coming from his office. Me and Harry went to see what it was. I open the door to see my dad on the floor looking under a closet.

"Morning Rebecca, morning Harry." He used his wand and stuck it under the closet, it started to shake. Harry almost jumped out of his skin and I looked over to my dad with a small smirk on my lips.

"Soooo, i'm guessing we are practicing on a boggart? Am I correct?" Dad looked up at me and met my smirk.

"Yes I think the students should face there fears, it will make it easier on them in case it's used against them." My dad was so smart but I don't know what i'm going to do. The full moon might come up when my boggart changes, but anyways i'm not afraid of the moon I just dislike it. Like my dad could read my thoughts he said. "Don't worry sweetie you're going to do fine."

We left his office and we started to get the class ready for the lesson. We pushed all the desks against the walls and lit the candles on the the wall as well. As students started to file in Ron and Hermione came in, they didn't come with us because we had a free period and they had transfiguration. Ron came over and wrapped an arm around my shoulders.

"Hey beautiful did you miss me?" He asked, I hate it when he flirts with me in front of Mione, This boy must be BLIND if he can't notice how she looks at him.

"Not at all actually. Now if you want to keep that arm I advise you to get it off of me right know." I said calmly. He took it off of me, but very slowly, I heard my dad office door open and I snapped my head up to look at him. Faster than you can say Snitch his arm was off of me. Dad all ways hated when someone flirted with me. Even (especially) when it's Ron.

 " Good morning class,  can anyone tell me whats in that closet?" Dad pointed to the closet that was in his office earlier, it was rattling like crazy. Of course Hermione was the only person to raise her hand.

"It's a boggart sir." My dad nodded his head at her

"Thank you miss. Granger and can anyone tell me what a boggart looks like?" This time I raised my hand.

"Yes miss. Lupin." I raised my eyebrows at him and shook my head.

"Well sir no one know what a boggart looks like, they change shape to what a person fears most. For example if Ronald stood in front of the boggart it will turn in to a spider." I explained to my dad.

"Very good miss. Granger and miss. Lupin, 5 points each to Gryffindor." I high fived Hermoine. "So class take out your wands and follow me." I took my wand out from my robe, it was a 11 inch dragon heart string with unicorn hair and made from the wood of an old Irish pine tree."Now the way to defeat a boggart is by this spell. Everyone repeat after me! 'Riddickulus'." Everyone repeated the spell after my dad."Now to finish it off is by laughter, Ah you what's your name?" My dad pointed at Neville.

"Neville Longbottom." He told my dad.

"Well Mr. Longbottom what are you afraid of?" asked my dad. Neville went all pink and mumbled something I didn't quite catch."Can you repeat that please, a bit louder?"

"Professor. Snape." He repeated louder. The class went into a fit of giggles, I glared at anyone who laughed and they shut up as soon as I looked at them.

"Well yes professor snape is rather scary. I hear you live with your grandmother, am I correct?"asked dad.

"Yes, but I wouldn't like it to turn into her ether." This time I cracked a smile. I met his grandmother before and let me tell you she wears the craziest of things.

"No no, it won't, I want you to think of what she wears only her clothes."

"Well she wears a-" My dad cut him off.

"No you don't have to say it out loud just think off it. Now Mr. Longbottom i'm going to open the closet doors and when I do I want you to repeat that spell I taught you earlier. Yes?" Neville nodded his head 'yes'. Dad took out his wand and flicked it and the closet door opened and out came Snape. Poor Neville was shaking to the bone.

"Riddickulus.'" Neville repeated the spell and all the sudden Snape was wearing a green dress robe with a fur scarf, black heels and a hat with a stuff eagle on it. The class burst out laughing and the boggar snape looked confused.

"Good job Mr. Longbottom! Now everyone form a line." The whole class formed a line in front of the boggart, it went form a snake turning into a balloon animal, Ron's spider turned into a spider with roller-skates and so on. Then came Harry's turn he got in front of the boggart and it turned into a dementor. Harry started to faint and I ran in front of him. The boggart changed into all my friends dead bodys. Harry's (dead), Dad (dead),Mione (dead),Ron (dead). Everyone. I started to cry, then dad got in front of me and the boggart turned into a full moon.

"Riddickulus."  Yelled my dad and the boggart turned into a deflating balloon and it went back into the closet. "Class dissmised." Everyone groaned and left the class. Dad handed me a piece of chocolate and then some to Harry. "Are you both ok?" I nodded and sniffled a bit, I went over to Harry to help him up.

"Yes thank you sir." Replied Harry. Dad nodded and told us to take the rest of the day off, that he well tell the rest of the teachers what had happened. "Are you ok Becca? I saw what you're afraid of."I just nodded my head and wrapped my arms around his waist and stood there hugging my best friend for comfort.
