Promise Me - On hold

A Normal Potions Class - Not

"You're dead, Gibbs," Draco spat at her.

"Oh really. I'm still walking and talking to you aren't I? Do you want to kill me now? Oh, and you're still sopping wet."

He grumbled under his breath and quickly dried his robes with a swipe of his wand. When they reached the dungeons for potions, the lesson had already started.

"We're sorry we're late Professor Slughorn," Samantha said as she opened the door of the potions classroom. "We had a run in with Professor McGonagall."

"Don't worry about it, Samantha," Slughorn said kindly. Then he turned to the class, "As I was saying, You are all going to be separated into pairs to make a shapeshifting potion. All of the potion's ingredients can be found in the potions cupboard. A shapeshifting potion allows you to transform into any form or creature for one hour, but if brewed wrongly the effects could be permanent. The pairs are written on the board."

He flicked his wand and names appeared on the board. Samantha was filling Harry in on what happened and only looked up when Hermione said her name in an annoyed tone.

"Samantha! Pay attention!" Hermione almost shouted.

"Sorry Herm," Samantha said smirking.

"Pranking those Slytherins like that wasn't a right move," Hermione huffed.

"Says someone who punched Malfoy in the face," Samantha taunted.

Hermione turned bright red and said, "Well, at least I'm not paired up with him."

"What do you mean?"

"S, take a look at the board. You are paired up with Malfoy."

"Damn it Hermione. Then who are you paired up with?"

"Pavarti."

Samantha checked the board and sure enough the pairs were listed out and she tried to supress a groan. She looked over at Draco and scowled. How she hated that boy. She got her things and walked over to him as he showed no intention of getting up. She waited for him to get up to take the ingredients. When he didn't, she turned to him angrily.

"Aren't you going to get all the ingredients?" she snapped at him.

"Aren't you?"

"Well I'm not," she huffed crossing her arms.

"Fine. What do we need?"

"We need kelpie mane, a newt's tail, a couple of flutterby moths, midnight ferns, salamanders' blood, flaxweed and foxgloves."

"I didn't know I was paired up with Hermione Granger."

"I can punch you in the face if you want."

"That's not necesary," Draco shuddered at the thought of getting punched again.

"Hurry up and get the ingredients, Malfoy."

"Alright, I'm going," he said as he walked over to the cupboard. He opened it and tried to find the ingredients. "Gibbs," he said. "I need you to come here."

"What is it?"

"Unless I'm mistaken, there is not enough ingredients for the potion. There is the salamanders' blood, kelpie mane and newt's tail, but there isn't any flutterby moths, midnight ferns, flaxweed and foxgloves left. I've checked the jars and they are all empty."

"Let me see," Samantha said. She pushed him aside and started checking all the jars. They really were all empty. She ran over to Professor Slughorn and asked, "Professor, there are not enough ingredients for our potion. What should we do?"

"Oh dear. Well I don't think you can brew the potion today. The both of you need to find the ingredients. They can all be found in the Forest."

"Thank you professor," Samantha said. She walked back to the table and turned to Draco. "Malfoy, after detention tonight you will have to wait for me at the entrance to the Great Hall."

"What for?"

"To collect the ingedients for the potion, you asshole. It's all in the Forbidden Forest."

"I'm not going."

"Yeah, like you have a choice," she spat. That dumbass thinks he is so smart and can just not go and collect the ingredients from the Forest. She was already starting to hate today.
