Word got around that I was talented at singing and playing the guitar. Soon  people started asking me to teach them. I agreed but then more and more people started asking so I went to McGonagall after class one day. "Professor McGonagall people are asking me to teach them how to play the guitar. And since there are so many of them. Can I make it like a club or something so I can teach them all at once?" I asked her. Hermione stayed behind to give me courage and support. McGonagall looked at me for a few seconds that felt like hours. Then she gave me my answer.

"Of course Ms. Potter but where would it be taking place?" She asked so she knew the details.

"It would be taking place in the music room on the fifth floor if that is okay with professor Filtwick. And if there aren't enough guitars I can always transfigure old and ruined couldrans into guitars if that is okay with you and professor Snape." McGonagall smiled at her and nodded saying it was okay. Violetta thanked her and ran off to tell everyone.

Weeks began to pass by and Violetta was kept busy with school, quidditch and teaching people how to play the guitar. By the time Violetta so see what day it was she saw it was February the 13th. Violetta was surprised but she was just too tired to care at the moment. So she changed and went to bed since it was 9:30 at night.

When she got up the next day she did her usual routine then her, Hermione, Ron and Harry went down to the Great Hall. And they stopped dead in their tracks. It looked as if somebody gave Cupid something pink to eat then throw up all over in the Great Hall.

"Okay please tell me this is a prank. Cause I feel like burghing." I asked Harry, Ron and Hermione. But when I looked at them looked just as stunned and grossed out as me.

"It's not a prank Violetta." Fred called out to me as he and George walked in as well. Looking just as disgusted as us. So after getting over my shock I went and got a seat at the Gryffindor table. And not long after Lockhart stood up with a big smile then he Began to speak to all of us. "Good morning everyone and happy Valentine's day. I have organised this so you all can send a message or something to a certain some one. And I would like to thank the 46 people who have already given me a Valentine. Also if you wish ask Professor Snape to make you a love potion. Or Professor Filtwick who bewitching charms you can use."

Professor Snape and Filtwick looked that they would give detentions to anyone who asks. And after breakfast we went to class. But I couldn't even get into the class before a four dwarf came and give me a valentine card. And the first class I had was DADA. While in the class I got three more. Then I had transfiguration. On the walk there I got a bouquet of Camellia pink.

With a poem on top it was a sweet poem. It said they admire my talents. It was real sweet. I looked over and saw that Harry was getting frustrated with all the attention I was getting. Hermione on the other hand was smirking at me. And during the class I got a five poem and twelve cards. I was getting frustrated since they were interupting class and so was McGonagall.

Soon class ended and I had lunch then Charms. So as I went to the Great Hall I got two more bouquets and sixteen cards.


I was starting to get frustrated since every single time dwarf gives me something they spray with the same perfume. I'm starting to smell like rose buds. I was quiet during lunch when I was eating and then layed my head down as I groaned.

"What's wrong with you Violetta?" One of the Weasley twins said as they both sat down on either side of me. I turned my head to look at George.

"It has been non stop with flowers and cards with some poems. And I'm starting to smell like rose buds." They burst out laughing when five more dwarfs came. They were surprised but laughed as they watched them each spray me then give four bouquets and five cards.



They watched as Violetta went back to groaning with head on the table. Just then Lockhart came in and saw Violetta head on the table. He started to make his way over to her causing groans from Harry, Ron, Fred and George. Hermione sighed while Violetta didn't see him coming.

"Ms. Potter why do you have your head table on the table?" He asks. Violetta groans and turns so her head is resting on the table so she can look at him. She more like glared at him.

"Because I have been getting cards, flowers and poems non stop today and it's only lunch time." This just shocks Lockhart.

"My dear girl that's not bad at all. How many have you gotten?" That only made Violetta to glare at him harder.

"I have gotten seven bouquets of flowers, forty letters and six poems. So all together I have gotten fifty three things today." Lockhart looks shock on how many she had gotten. As if conjured up by thought more dwarfs come. They hand Violetta eighteen letters, eight poems and three bouquets.



"Scratch that I now have ten bouquets, fifty eight letters, fourteen poems. Combine them together and you get eighty two." Lockhart left after that stunted that she kept getting more and more. "Okay guys before lunch is over I need to go and put all of these flowers in water in my dorm room so I'll be right back and if not I'll meet you in Charms." Everyone nodded and she got up with her arms full of flowers and started making her way to Gryffendore tower. But half way there she dropped few by accident and was having trouble picking them up.

"Need some help there?" A familiar voice called out. Violetta turned around to see Cedric. Violetta smiled at him as she straightened up.

"If you don't mind. And if I'm being honest I'm getting tired of today already. How about you?" Violetta replied to Cedric. He smiled and laughed while picking the ones on the ground up and taking some from her. 

"Well I can't say you are wrong. I have gotten quiet a few. And from the looks of it you aren't thrill and you got the airhead Lockhart speachless. Oh and by the way thanks for that potion. It's going to help at some point I know it." Violetta beamed at him and thanked him as well for his gift. They were talking all the way to the tower. When they got there they went there separate ways once Cedric handed Violetta her flowers to her. There she took them to her room and made a jar big enough for all of them. Then she add water to them. And put them in the window that's by her bed.

But when Violetta turned around she saw a vase of flowers with a note on them.

Dearest Violetta

I know you are starting to wonder who I am but all will reveal itself in time. But I'm not writing this letter to tell you about that. Your godfather was able to get me the money to buy these flower pot with the flowers in it. The pot will not let the flowers die as long as you water them at least once a week or more. And these flowers are called heliotrope. The name is uncommon but what they stand for is what make them special and meaningful to you and your godfather. They mean eternal love and devotion. He loves you and your brother for all eternity and is devoted to you two no matter what.

Sincerely

RJL

I was shocked but pocketed the note and went to class. Where I got more letters and poems. By the end of the day I got eleven bouquets, hundred and five letters and twenty four poems. Put them all together and you get hundred and forty. I am so glad to day is over because I think I am sick and tired of Valentine's day thanks to Lockhart.

Each of the flowers mean something. If you would like to know go to
