Love Triangle

The Boggart

The next day me, Ron and Hermione headed to our 1st class of the year, Potions. Normally people would say they hate potions but i like it. Potions is my passion. I find potions fun and also Professor Snape's voice kinda cool. I find a seat in back of the class while Ron and Hermione sit together in the front.

Snape walks in grumpy as usual but I don't blame him I'd be irritated to teach meddling students all day.

"Today we are going to learn how to brew Felix Felicis which is also called "Liquid Luck" This makes the drinker lucky for a period of time. Meaning everything will turn out successful for them. The ingredients are on the table and the instructions are in front of you. You have 1 hour to brew this potion. Start." Snape announces.

I gather my supplies and start working on the potion. A few minutes later I see Professor Snape get up and walk around the class. I hope my potion is decent enough.

I start cutting the Sopophorus bean with the blade but it keeps "bouncing".

"Having trouble there Miss Potter?" Snape asks as he stands behind me. I can literally feel his body heat.

"Uhh no Professor Snape, just cutting the Sopophorus bean." I say quietly.

"No you shouldn't cut it you should crush it if you want all the juice to come out." He suggests.

"But sir it says in the book-."

"Trust me Jodie I'm the potions teacher, I know what I'm doing." He says as he smirks.

Wait did he just call me by my first name? Well that was a first. As I think about what he said, He leans over me puts his firm, rough hands on my hands and guides my them to crush the bean with the blade, then the juice start oozing out.

"See?" He says as I sit in awe.

"Thanks professor." I uttered. He takes his hands off mines.

"If you need any help just call for me." He reminds.

I go back to working casually sneaking up glances to Snape. I look at him and see him already looking at me. When our eyes meet he quickly gets back to working. I carry on working, following all the instructions in the book.
.

"Attention. Your 1 hour is over. Please bring up your potion in a vial for me to grade." Snape says sternly.

I quickly put the potion inside a vial and I walk up and hand it to him. I walk back to my seat praying to Merlin that the potion was alright. He looks at each and everyone's potion writing down the grade for that person.

"Well well, One of you perfected in making the potion. Miss Potter."

I sit in awe and see that everyone is looking at me. I see Hermione with puffy hair and looks kind of irritated. Maybe she's jealous of me perfecting it. Anyway I was happy to be the only one to perfect it.

The class ends and now to my 2nd class Defence Against the Dark Arts with Professor Lupin.

I walk into his class to see that its completely empty just a wardrobe no chairs or desks.

When class starts, Professor Lupin walks in.

"Good Morning Class!" He says enthusiastically. Our eyes meet and stay like that a bit longer than usual. After realizing what he's doing he shoots his gaze somewhere else.

"Today we are going to be working with a boggart. Now would anyone want to tell me what a boggart looks like?"

"No one knows what a boggart looks like because it takes the shape of what people fear most. That's what makes them so terr-" Hermione answers.
