NO ONE POV

It was time for classes to begin to say Caelum was excited would be an understatement. He had flying lessons with the Ravenclaws first and was looking flrward to it. His brother had told him all kinds of things to be careful about with flying, as he had been reading about it for years.

Evryone had a bit if trouble getting theur broom up, but Caelum mamaged to get his to fly into his hand with zero issue. He smiled while Ernie and Justin gawked in amazement from his left and right sides.

"How did you do that, mate?" Justin asked befor ehe and Ernie finally got their own up. Caelum just shrugged before the continued on with the lesson.

Everyone had dome their levatations with their brooms splendidly and when Madame Hooch had declared their lesson over, Caelum ran straight to his brother's first class and waited for them to be done as well so he could tell him all about it.

When the blonde emerged from his class shared with the Gryffindors, he was surprised to get an attacking hug from his younger brother.

"Are you alright? What is this all kf a sudden?" Draco asked as he pulled his brother away and smiled at him. "Are you well, Little Brother?"

"Very. We just got done with flying lessons and even though we didn't do much, it was so fun!"

"See? I told you, it is something to be excited for." Draco laughed with his brother before he felt someone push past him and knock the two slightly over as the walked down the hall. "Hey! Whatch where you are going!"

"Oh, I'm so sorry," the git spoke sarcastically. "I didnt realize I bumped into a couple of losers, like yourselves."

He laughed and Caelum had to grab Draco's arm before he lost his composure.

"Remember Draco, Mum wants us to keep the Malfoy name in a good light. Stop picking a fight."

"Caelum-"

"Shh!"

"Oh how sweet. You need a little freak like him to stop you. My family told me that he died. I can't believe the first story that he was stolen, he doesnt look special enough to be kidnapped like you family claims he was."

It was at that moment, Draco sbapped. He pushed his little brother away, nkt realizing he knocked him into a wall, and punched the other student square in the nose.

Professors Flitwick, Sprout, and McGonagall had been walking by and git in the middle to tear the two away. Flitwick holding back Draco, and McGonagall holding back the other student.

"Mister Weasley, what in Godric's name are you doing. A Gryffindor does not act like this!"

"You too Mister Snape-Malfoy. Slytherins are supposed to be mkre traditional and not attack another student." Flitwick scolded.

Professor Sprout had rushed herself over to Caelum and had checked to make sure he was alright. He just smiled at her as she checked over his arm, he had been holding since he got pushed into the wall.

"Caelum dear, would you care to explain what happened?" She asked as the others looked over.

And so Caelum told her what had been said and what had happened, McGonagall glaring at her lion the whole time.

"Mister Weasley, we do not pick fights with other students. You must live up to the house of Gryffindor and behave as such! Fifty points will be deducted from Gryffindor house, and fifteen will be deducted from Slytherin for throwing the first hit. As for Hufflepuff, Ten points rewarded to you for trying to stop the fight and explaining the situation to us. Now then, back to your classes, all of you."

They all nodded and while Ron was being escorted to his Charms class with Flitwick, Draco had recieved permission to escort gis younger brother to his next class, which was Potions. Professor Sprout, nkt teaching a class at the moment, went with then and explained the situation to Severus upon their arrival.

She then took Draco to Charms and left Caelum with his father. He had taken a seat near the front beside a ravenclaw named Cho Chang.

"Now then," Severus spoke in a tone Caelum was not used to. "Can anyone tell me where I would find a bezoar?"

Caelum looked around and saw nobody knew, before he raised his hand shyly. Severus nodded at him and sent him a small grin, only Caelum could see.

"A-a goat's s-stomach."

"Excellent. Does anyone know what it is used for?"

Hermione's hand shot straight up.

"Miss Granger?"

"To heal most poisons, sir."

"Correct."

The rest of class went on and Severus had the students partner up and begin to brew a simple potion they needed to turn in before class ended to recieve their first grade.

Cho and Caelum were working together and they were the first ones to finish and turn it in. When class ended Caelum stayed back because Severus needed to talk to him and as soon as the class was emptied, Seveus closed the door with a flick of his wand.

"I hope you don't think I was a little harsh today." Severus said with a grin to his son.

"Not at all. Ive heard the rumors about how people call you a dungeon bat with an attitude."

"Who called me that??"

"Students and Professors alike."

Severus sighed and placed a hand on his son's shoulder.

"You dont believe it do you?"

"Of course not. They dont know you like Draco and I do."

Severus smiled at his son bwfore sending him away with a small hug and word of his mother coming for a dinner on Saturday before sending him off to class.

As Caelum left, Severus sighed and took a seat at his chair. He Hagan to write a letter to Lucius ahout what happened with the Weasley boy today and hoped to Merlin nothing bad happened to his boys.
