Today I have Potion class for the first time. My dad is our teacher so I really hope that he doesn't let me work too hard. I am still so tired from tonight. 

My dad walks into the classroom and stands in front of his desk ."Welcome class, today we are going to brew Amortentia", all girls let out a squeal of joy. He continues: "Amortentia is the most powerful love potion in the world. It is distinctive for its mother-of-pearl sheen, and steam rises from the potion in spirals. Amortentia smells different to each person, according to what attracts them." I am really curious what my Amortentia would smell like. I have no clue.

"Grab your textbook and open your book on page 228. I have already put all the supplies on your desks", my dad says. Nicola, Alexia and I are working together on Amortentia. Everything goes flawlessly. It is not a very difficult potion to make. Just before we are almost done with our potion, I get a note on my desk:

Meet me at the Clock Tower Entrance - DM 

I look towards Draco, and I see him sneaking out the classroom. "Father...., I mean Professor Snape, can I go to the restroom, please?", I ask. "If you hurry up", he says, a little annoyed. I walk out of the classroom. I have to go through a hall to get to the Clock Tower Entrance. I walk into the hall and see Draco standing at the end. "There she is", he grins. "What do you want, Malfoy?", I laugh. "Come here", he says. I walk up to him. 

I am going to stand in front of him. "Well?", I look to him. "I bet your Amortentia would smell like me", he boasts. "Really?", I raise my eyebrows. "100 % sure", he grins. "Close your eyes", I say. He looks confused. "Close them for 10 seconds". He closes his eyes and I walk away quietly. I am halfway the hall. He opens his eyes and I see him looking around. "Keep dreaming, Malfoy", I yell. He runs up to me so I run back towards the classroom as fast as I can. 

I am clearly not as fast as him. He grabs my hips to stop me, I let out a squeal. He turns me around and lays his finger on my lips "Ssst, they will hear you", he whispers. I put my arms around his neck. He grabs my hips even firmer and pulls them towards him. Our noses are touching. "We have to go back, don't we?", he whispers. I nod. "I will go first, you can sneak in", I open the door of the classroom. 

I walk back to my desk. "Why are you smiling?", Alexia looks at me questioningly. "Um... I am just so curious what my Amortentia will smell like", I respond and sit down. "Who wants to tell us how the Amortentia smells", Snape asks. "Zara wants", Nicole says harassing. "No, Alexia your turn", my dad responds. I could have expected this. My father doesn't want to know anything about my love life.
