I Never Thought....

Tease

Harry and Ron DID NOT want to go to Defense against the dark arts class today, whining and complaining about how horrible the teacher will be. Hermione was still keen as ever to get to class as she didn't want to be late.

Walking down the corridor Harry bumped into someone. You'll never guess who, it was none other then the Draco Malfoy. Harry dropped his books all over the floor and Malfoy just laughed at him.

"Watch where your going Potter, i think your glasses aren't working"

He glared at Malfoy and Ron started having a go at him. The yelling could of been heard from the shrieking shack.

"Ron, come on" Harry said quite coldly. "He's not worth it"

With that being said Ron followed harry and they walked in to there dark arts class. They took there seats 3 rows from the front, in the center. All the other kids were chatting, laughing and using magic to fly paper airplanes around the room. Harry looked up and watched one fly towards hermione's face but before it could land on her desk, the plane burst into flames and fell dead on the desk. Everyone in shock turned to face Dolores Umbridge. She smiled at us all and lowered her wand.

"Children, no funny business in my classroom!" she said sternly yet she still grinned

~ Harry's POV ~

I exchanged glances withe Ron and he looked confused, so did many other students. Something was very sketchy about Umbridge, i just had a feeling.

"This year i expect you all to study and pay attention in class" Umbridge said in the same strict voice.

"You all must start studying for O.W.L exams, I've heard Hogwarts isn't the best at... exams"

Of course Hermione was glad, i mean when doesn't she study but me and Ron and everyone else in the bloody classroom don't want to study, well at least not this early in the year.

"Now here are your books for this year and please look at them thoroughly" Umbridge said, well more like demanded.

About 30 large brown books drifted towards each and every student in the class. I received mine and it was so heavy. Opening the book... my eyes widened in disbelief at how much information was in the book.

Something was missing though

Magic! where are wands, spells, potions or anything to actually defend ourselves with!!!

I shot my hand in the air and as i did, i realized so did hermione so i put my hand down.

"Why isn't there any magic or spells in here Professor Umbridge?" Hermione asked politely. "We will need it for this class"

Umbridge lifted her chin and simply said " You won't be needing magic in my class"

Everyone i mean EVERYONE stared shocked and unable to talk. All i heard was a few gasps and one particularly from Malfoy who was sitting in the back row. I couldn't believe it, no magic! This is utterly outrageous.

Without bothering to put my hand up, i just blurted out "What do you mean 'no magic'?"

Well, Mr potter we won't need it as we are focusing on O.W.L.S and knowledge" Umbridge replied becoming stressed.

"This is Defense against the Dark Arts, we are going to need magic, how else are we going to defend ourselves" I blurted out again.

"Mr Potter!" she raised her voice "Raise your hand before speaking and do NOT tell me how to teach my class"

I was furious, i couldn't bloody believe this teacher, judge or whatever she was. I would not sit here and listen to her crap. I decided to speak my mind.

"Yeah and what are we supposed to do if we are in danger, we need magic otherwise what is THE BLOODY POINT OF THIS STUPID CLASS"

Umbridge's hands were shaking in tight fists, face full with red and her lips slightly quivering from anger. She was about to lose it but she took a deep breath and calmed her self down.

"Mr potter, what would young children like yourself be in danger from what exactly?" she asked still flustered"

"Oh uhh, i don't know maybe VOLDEMORT!!!" I bit with anger lingering in my voice. "and all the dementors, we are never safe and you expect us to sit here learning no spells or possibly anything to protect ourselves!"

Umbridge was absolute boiling in anger, she was like a pink ball of fire.

"HOW DARE YOU MR POTTER! DO NOT SPEAK BACK TO ME AND MOST IMPORTANTLY.." She paused for a small second. "DO NOT TELL LIES"

she calmed down and smiled at everyone, reassuring them that Voldemort is not back and that i'm telling lies. She started to walk towards me and i glared at her not blinking. She gave me a small grin and said

"Mr potter detention, my office, this afternoon"

I heard Malfoy snicker in the back and i have no doubt that he was smirking with the pleasure of seeing me get in trouble but that was the least of my worries. I was absolutely furious! I'm not going to sit here and listen to her pathetic teachings.

"Fine, but i'm not staying in this classroom with you teaching us shit we don't need!"

As i said that everyone started at me completely speechless, months dropped open and eyes wide, even Malfoy. I got up and left the room with each step leaving a heavy thump and a slam of the old wooden door. I heard Umbridge yelling at to come back but i didn't care, i just ignored her.

~ Draco's POV ~

I thought it was hilarious when Potter got a detention so of course i laughed at him but i didn't expect him to actually yell at a teacher or anyone like that. I've never seen this side of Potter but i liked it much better. When he got up and left i was shocked; however the way he walked out of the room with such confidence, each stride he looked more determined to get to the door. He looked at me for small second and i gave him a cheeky smirk... obviously just to mess with him. I hate Umbridge and i would've done what Har.. Potter did so good on him.

~3rd person POV ~

At lunch hermione and Ron went to the Gryffindor common room to check on Harry. The boy who lived was sitting on the couch with his arms crossed. Hermione went over and asked why on earth he did that today in class and Ron was saying how awesome it was. Harry, however didn't really pay attention, he was just so mad. Why would Umbridge do that her thought, she must be up to something, considering she was at his hearing.

"Harry?.... Harry!" Hermione yelled while waving her hand in front of his face.

"Yeah OH sorry" Harry stumbled upon his words.

"are you okay mate?" Ron asked.

He said he was fine and continued to stare into the burning fire. Ron and hermione exchanged worried glances. The three of them sat in silence for about 5 minutes until Ron broke it.

"Harry, you have um... detention soon" Ron stuttered. "You should probably start to head down"

He nodded and got up from the couch. He was dreading the detention, like what could he expect it was Umbridge. He walked our of the Gryffindor common room and walked down the first flight of stairs.

Then to only meet a pair of silver grey eyes staring at him....
