Next morning

"Snape no , look Snape! If you do that it's going to explode, Sev listen to me " Bellatrix argues attempting to get the deadly flower off him.
"I'm the potions master Bella not you " Snape said holding the flower above her head as she attempts to grab it.
"Oh sometimes I hate you " Bellatrix scolds him.
"No you don't " he smiles slightly.
"Give it to me" she attempts to jump and grab it only to knock it out of his hand, straight into the potion.
"Shit" Bella mumbles as they look at one another then at the bubbling cauldron.
"Bella ... I think we'd " was all Snape could say before the cauldron exploded, black liquid every where and thick grey smoke foaming.

Coughing Bellatrix rubbed the horrid stuff from her eyes, looking over to Snape who was completely covered in the stuff.
"Ah Snape you...ah... have a little something there" Bella said standing on her tiptoes to wipe the black liquid from his face to reveal a ... not to amused Snape.
"Really" he glared at the sniggering woman, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
"You know, that look really doesn't suit you " she smirks placing her hands on her hips.
"It's not doing any justice for you either" he narrowed his eyes, stepping closer to the witch.

Smirking Bellatrix placed her hands on his chest moving lower until they reach his waist
"Bellatrix " Snape growled placing his hands firmly on her waist bringing them closer together.
"Yes Snapey " she smiles moving her hands to wrap them around his neck.
"Lessons ....start in....less than...ten ...minutes" he looks down at the witch to meet her sparkling dark eyes.

Realisation hitting Bellatrix
"Oh Merlin, we had better get this place and ourselves cleaned up" the dark witch reaches for her wand casting a cleaning spell on the room and the pair of them.
"There " Bella smiles
"Let us not mention this little outburst to anyone " Snape walks to his desk.
"My lips are sealed" Bella smiles.
"So which class will I be assisting you in this morning?" Bella asks flipping through his book of potions.
"Potter's class"
"Oh how delightful, let's hope they behave, or ..... well need I say more" she cackles as the door opens, students soon filling the room.

"God this is going to be boring"Ron mumbled taking a seat near Harry and Hermione.
"Well at least we have professor Black in too, she's better looking than Snape, scary, but better looking." Harry replied
"True, but he's still going to be in the bloody class" Ron whispers.
"Will you two shut up about who looks better than who!" Hermione whispers loud enough for only them to hear.

"Today... Professor Black will be assisting me in the making of ..." was all Harry and Ron heard as they continued to whisper. Rolling her eyes Hermione tried very hard to listen to what the professor was saying but couldn't quite hear.
The next thing she knew Snape was behind Harry and Ron, slapping them both on the head with a book.
"Aw Naughty boys " Bellatrix chuckled as she sat upon Snape's desk.
"I presume you both know how to create this potion , therefore you shall both assist Professor Black in creating it" Snape placed the book on their desk and folded his arms. A small smirk appeared on Hermione's face as she looked down.

"We ahh" Ron started when Bellatrix stood up.
"Yes do come assist me , we'll soon show professor Snape how it's done" Bellatrix grinned, pulling the boys from their chair.
Sighing Snape shook his head, continuing to explain what and why the potion is used.
Hermione furrowed her brows, she was always fairly nice with them, though never with her, Hermione felt annoyed....possibly even jealous.

20 minutes later and the potion was complete.
Satisfied with what they had done Ron and Harry stood each side of the dark witch smiling.
Bellatrix stood, hands on her hips smirking
"Well I think that was rather successful. " she said folding her arms.
Hermione sighs, why can't she have the woman's attention like they do? The only time she ever catches the woman's attention is when Black wants to tell her off or make her look like a fool.

"Fortunately, Miss Black they were working with , dare I say, a very bright witch and probably one of the cleverest at Hogwarts." Snape said rather quietly, for only the three in front of him to hear.
"Oh , professor stop your making me blush " the dark woman smirks turning to face the rest of the class. Her eyes skipping from student to student until her eyes stopped upon her nephew who was smirking at her, winking at the blonde boy she then smirks and shifted her eyes to the pretty little Gryffindor. A blush crept up the brunettes neck as she quickly looked at her desk.
Professor Snape continued to explain about the potion as Bellatrix often glanced at the little muggleborn smirking at her causing her to blush. This continued for the rest of the lesson.

Bellatrix sat at her desk looking over her papers, she had a free period just before lunch.
Her quill ran over the paper correcting a few mistakes when the door opens and in walks Minerva who locks the door behind her.
Bellatrix arches her brow
"Don't you have a lesson to teach?"
"No, I'm free." Minerva smiles walking over to Bellatrix's desk.
Bellatrix leans back in her chair watching the woman.
"And what brings you here?"
"What can't I just come spend time with you out of love?" Minerva smiles.
"No, now what do you want?"
Minerva sighs
"I figured I'd best inform you that Dolores Umbridge will be making an appearance, she's been assigned to check the school, and our teaching system."
"No, absolutely not, I refuse." Bellatrix folds her arms, Minerva chuckles.
"We don't have a say love, we have no choice." Minerva smiles at the girl.
"I don't like her she's a bitch." Bellatrix pouts.
"You don't like anything." Minerva comes to sit on Bellatrix's desk.
"That's not true, I like a very small selection of people, and you." Bellatrix looks to the older woman who chuckles.
"Good, I'm glad I made it onto the very small list of people you like."
"Yes, so you should, you really don't know how lucky you are being on there, and at the very top of it, might I add." A small smile made it's way to Bella's lips.
Minerva returns the smile reaching for the girl's hand.
"I love you."
"I love you too, more than you'll ever know." Bellatrix smiles.
"Join us for lunch." Minerva smiles.
"Oh no, not this topic again-"
"Please?" Minerva looks at her with that damned look she knows Bellatrix can't refuse.
Bellatrix opens her mouth about to speak but Minerva beat her to it.
"You know if you love me as much as you say you do, you'd join."
"You're a manipulative swine do you know that?"
"Oh honey, where do you think you get it from." Minerva smirks.
