"WAKE UP YOU LAZY LUMP!"

Suddenly I was wake and drenched in freezing cold water. This was how Pansy decided to wake me this morning. Please remind me to use an alarm clock next time. "We are going to breakfast, meet you downstairs."

After throwing on my uniform and fixing my hair I ran down the stairs for a quick breakfast with my friends before our first lessons. As I entered the main part of the common room I got a chance to look at it properly. It was pretty cozy with several green sofas and a fireplace. I wondered how the fireplace worked, after all the Slytherin dorms are in the dungeons. After thinking about it for a few minutes I realized the answer was clear, agic obviously.

Once everyone had woken up and finished getting dressed our little gang walked to breakfast.

*Time Skip*

After everyone had finished eating and got their timetable we walked to our first lessons. My first lesson was Potions with Professor Snape. Draco, Astoria, Blaise and Hermione also had potions while Pansy, Adam and Theo had Care of Magical Creatures. We agreed to meet up by the lake for lunch.

We walked into the dungeon and sat down at desks. After a few minutes of waiting Professor Snape, who was sitting at the front of the room, started the class with roll call. Like many other teachers he paused at Potty's name.
"Ah, yes" he said softly "Harry Potter. Our new- celebrity." We sniggered at this. Snape finished calling the names ,with only a slight pause at my mine, and then looked up at the class. His black eyes were cold and empty and made you think of dark tunnels.
"You are here to learn the subtle science and exact art of potion making" he began. His voice was barely more than a whisper but we heard every word. "As there is little foolish wand-waving here, many of you will hardly believe this is magic. I don't expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes..." at this part of the speech I stopped listening fully. After glancing to the desk next to us that Astoria and Blaise sat at I saw that they too were not listening. "I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory and even put a stopper on death- if you aren't as big a bunch of dunderheads as I usually have to teach."
After he had finished his little speech, silence was all that could be heard in the room. I looked at Draco who was sitting next to me and raised my eyebrows, asking what all this was about. He just shrugged his shoulders and turned back to the front. "Potter!" Snape yelled suddenly, causing everyone in the room to jump. "What would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?" Out of the corner of my eye I saw Potty look over at the Weasel, their Mudblood friend Alice's had went right into the air. "I don't know, sir." Came the answer.
"Tut tut- clearly fame isn't everything." He smirked at that. We tried not to laugh. "Let's try again Potter. Where would you look if I told you to find me a bezoar?" This time the reply came immediately
"I don't know, sir." At this point we were shaking, trying to hold in our laughter.
"Didn't even think of opening a book, did you Potter?" Snape sneered. He asked Potty a final question. "Well Potter, what is the difference between wolfsbane and monkshood?" At this point the Mudblood had stood up and was waving her hand in the air desperately. "I don't know," Potter replied quietly. "I think Alice does though, why don't you ask her?" At this I couldn't help but let out a small giggle. Luckily he didn't seem to notice, instead he answered the questions and told us to write down the answers.
