"alastor moody" our oddly looking professor said to the class , beginning his introduction "ex auror , ministry malcontent ,and your new defense against the dark arts teacher. i am here because dumbledore asked me. end of story, goodbye, the end. any questions?" he said starring into the class , but nobody said a word "when it comes to the dark arts, i believe in a practical approach. but first. which of you can tell me how many unforgivable curses there are?" moody asked us , i began to raise my hand but draco pulled it down quickly , not wanting more rumors to be started, about me. "three, sir" hermione said tensely , frankly the whole class seemed tense by this our weird professor, however my father was the dark lord so his mangled appearance didn't quite have an effect on me "and they are so named?" moody asked beginning to write against the blackboard "because they are unforgivable. the use of any one of them will..." hermione said, with moody cutting her off midsentence "will earn you a one-way ticket to azkaban, correct" he said finishing off her sentence, his voice sounding harsh and angry. "now the ministry says you're too young to see what these curses do. i say different! you need to know what you're up against!" moody practically yelled, the classroom got even more tense with every word he spoke. he then called out seamas for putting gum under his desk and proceeded to throw chalk at him, draco let out a small chuckle but i elbowed him to stay quiet. "so which curse shall we see first, weasley!" moody said yelling out rons name ron somehow muttered out a yes , his voice cracking through the one syllable. "stand" moody said and ron rose slowly from his seat nervously "give us a curse" "well, my dad did tell me about one. the imperious curse" ron managed to mumble out. "yes your father would know all about that one, gave the ministry quite a bit of grief a few years ago. perhaps this will show you why" moody said and walked over to his desk, allowing ron to sit back down. moody pulled a grey spider looking creature from inside a glass container, using a spell to more than double it in size . then using the imperio curse against it, dragging it around the room across students desks . he landed it on top of crabbed head , earning some laughs from me and draco along with the rest of the class. moody moved it onto a girl who was sat right in front of us , it crawling up her arm. "be careful if she bites , it's lethal" moody said dragging the spider to hover over ron's head , the professor laughing maniacally as ron shook with fear. "what are you laughing at" he said sternly to draco before flying the spider over and onto his face, i flinched as it landed on him , not knowing what to do. "talented isn't she" moody said as the class erupted with laughter , with him leaving the spider on draco for so long. "what should i have her do next jump out the window , drown herself" he said , his maniacal laughing fading into a more serious tone , the classes as well. he set the spider back down in his hand "scores of witches and wizards have claimed , did only you know who's bidding under the influence of the imperious curse. but here's the rope , how do we sort out the liars. the easier route could be someone who let's say had a child with the dark lord." moody said starring in my direction, the rest of the class glancing back towards me. i tensed up in my seat hoping this wasn't going to be an ongoing topic. "another another" he said bringing the attention back to him and the curses , many people in the class raised their hands but this time i kept mine down, sinking back into my chair, draco looked at me with a concerned look but i just gave him a soft smile to let him know i'm fine.
he showed us the rest of the curses; crutio and the killing curse. the entire class uncomfortable as he tortured and killed the spider. "the killing curse, only one person is known to have survive it, and he's sitting in this room" moody said making his way over to harry , glaring down at him and sipping from his flask.
we were dismissed shortly after , everyone practically running to get out of that class. me and draco walked to the slytherin common room , both still shaken up from the class. "are you okay , em, be honest with me" draco asked as we sat down on the couch, "the real question should be, are you okay? i mean you had a spider on your face, i was just called out for being the product of the dark lord , everyone already knew that" i said letting out a small laugh trying to lighten the mood, getting a small smile out of him in the process "he's bloody demented i tell you , my father will hear about this" he said , having almost forgot about the spider from being worried about me. it was always amusing to see him get so worked up over the littlest things, which was a thing i saw a lot. he looked back over to me confused to see me smiling up at him "what is is?" he said dumbfounded , which just make me smile more. i wrapped my arms around his neck, pressing a soft kiss onto his lips , smiling into it , he tensed up at the sudden contact. i pulled away , with flushed cheeks , just wanting to admire the blonde haired boy for the rest of time.
