Chapter something....I forgot.....haha
"Thank you for gracing us with your presence Miss Hardy, now the least you could do is pay attention." She snapped at me. I lifted my head and stared back at her, mouth set in a straight line.
"I am paying attention." I said stiffly, but loudly.
"Yes, then please tell us what I have just told the class." She said back, just as coldly as I had.
"You said 'Potions is a very sacred and precise art, dedicated to either harming or helping the drinker.' Then you started going on about how I wasn't paying attention, but I was, yada yada yada." I said dismissively. I was getting guts, saying this kind of stuff to the teachers. One of the guys in the back of the room started snickering as I said the last part.
"Shut uuuuppp!" I heard a guy say back to him all whiny. I turned around and saw a guy with black kind of Justin Bieber-ish hair, with olive skin and brown eyes making a swipe at the kid that had laughed at me. He hit him successfully and the guy screamed really loud and picked up his quill (with a sharp end on it) and made a stab at him.
"MR YADA! MR MACE! A DETENTION AND TEN POINTS OFF OF WHATEVER HOUSE YOU BELONG TO, AND I HOPE FOR YOUR SAKE IT ISNT MINE!" She screamed at them. I started laughing at the look on their faces, which was (with Mace it was) 'this woman is crazy' and( with Yada it was) "What the heck?'
"GRYFFINDOR!" Mace shouted out. I rolled my eyes. There was apparently something wrong with this boy if he hadnt noticed that he wasnt supposed to be here. (there were only Slytherins and Hufflepuffs in our class today)
"Slytherin." Yada said indifferently. Great. I get this guy in my house. I pitied Scorpius and Albus for a moment.
"Mr. Mace, I do believe you dont belong here. Get out of my classroom." She said to him. I looked at his face and i saw pure comic disbelief. I broke out laughing.......So did Al. Surprisingly Isabella didnt start lauging her head off...... look who has no self control! I DONT!
"What did I do?"
"Your'e in the wrong class Mr. Mace, and now you have a detention." I kept snickering. "Thats another detention for you Miss Hardy." Mace snuck out of the classroom......silently as possible.
"She didnt do anything Professor Emerald!" Al shouted out.
"That's one for you Mr. Potter. If anyone else has any objections, they are welcome to join these four-" she spotted Scorpius at the same table as Isabella, Charlotte, Al, and I. "Five, in detention." Charlotte smirked at us.
"No thanks." she muttered.
"That's one for you Miss Chiappetta." She said.
"I didnt do anything."
"Snide comments are not appreciated in this class room Miss Chiappetta." Charlotte glared at her. "Now if we could continue on with the lesson, without any interruptions....." She said. I decided then and there that I was no longer going to pay attention in her class. I pulled out a quill, and a book to write on. I laid a piece of parchment on top of the book and slid it under the desk.
I stood at the steps of the church, looking down at the people in black. They were staring at something, something large, a box. Maybe a coffin. I was confused. Why was I here? Why were all the people that I knew crowded around the coffin. My mom, my dad, my sister, my best friend. Tears traced down their cheeks, their eyes rimmed in red. I heard my name, and froze. Why were they talking about-
"Leanne! Leanne, shes coming!" Charlotte whispered to me fiercley. I immediatley stopped writing.
"crap." I whispered back, not to her but in general. I slipped the book under my legs and tried to look like I was paying attention.
"Miss Hardy! What is the answer to my question?" Dead. Dead. Im so dead.
"Um.....wolfsbane?" I answered.
"Well well. It looks like Miss Hardy is good for something after all." She said in a mocking tone. I didnt know if she was being sarcastic or if i had gotten the answer right. Charlotte smirked at me.
"was that right?" I whispered to her once Emerald had turned around.
"Yeah. You need to pay attention."
"Youre turn to nag, I know." i said bitterly.
The rest of the class drug by, with me attempting to pay attention to whatever she was talking about (and failing), and Charlotte commentating on what she was saying, Isabella doodling on the edge of her paper, Al resting his chin on his hand looking bored, and Scorpius was rolling his quill back and forth across the desk. This was gonna be a long class.
"Those of you who have detention, please come see me before you leave as to be clear on what you have to do." She said. Charlotte, Scorpius, Al, Yada and I all groaned simultaneously.
"well. Lets go recieve our punishment." I said to them.
"UGH!" Charlotte nearly yelled. Al looked at me like 'what is wrong with this girl?' I shrugged. They were her problems, not mine. We walked up to the desk and stood their, awaiting the punishment.
"Miss Hardy, Mr Potter, Mr Malfoy. You three will be serving in the forbidden forest tonight with Hagrid. Miss Chiappetta, Mr Yada, and someone please inform Mr Mace, will be serving in the dungeons with me." She snapped. She must really hate them if she wants them to serve with her. I could almost hear Charlotte internally screaming. She shot a glare at Yada. If Mace was there she would have glared at him too, I know she would have.
"Thank you." Al said, dragging us all away before we could murder anyone. Mainly Emerald.
When we got out of the classroom, Isabella was standing there talking to Joseph and we all started complaining to her at once about how unfair this was. She also immediately yelled at us all to shut up and went on talking with Joseph. Oh well. We have no one to back each other up......how sad.
"See you tonight Charlotte." I said and us Slytherins walked away to our next class.
