Chapter 1: The Meeting (John)

John Watson stared at Minerva McGonagall for a few seconds before turning to look over at Sherlock Holmes and Molly Hooper (all recent graduates of Hogwarts) who were both seated to his right. They looked back at him and on their faces was every emotion he felt. Shock, surprise, and a touch of pride at being asked first.

"Gentleman and lady, do I get an answer?" McGonagall asked.

"Certainly Headmaster but, forgive me for asking, why us?" This came from Molly.

"Well the newest influx of First Years are a rather large group and we need to split them into two classes to fit them all. Therefore we need new teachers. However, it is getting increasingly difficult to find teachers and so we all got together and decided to hire the three brightest and best students we could think of. You all came to mind."

Silence once more from the small group of three. Five minutes passed, then-

"Well?"

"Headmaster, what would each of us teach?" This one from Sherlock, who hardly uttered a word ever.

"Simple. Mr. Watson, you'd teach Defense Against the Dark Arts and Astronomy. Ms. Hooper, Charms and History of Magic. Mr. Holmes-"

"Why am I last?" Sherlock interjected.

"That's just the way you three are seated now if I may. Mr. Holmes, you would-we're you to take up the offer-potions and herbology. The three of you would co-teach Transfiguration and Basic Flight. Any other questions before I find out whether or not I need to put an ad out?"

"I can't think of any. You Sherly or Molly?"

"Not a one John." Molly replied with a smile.

Sherlock simply glared at me for calling him Sherly and said nothing. I took that as a no.

"Right, well, I, for one, accept." I stated.

"Same for me." Followed Molly.

That elicited a sigh from Sherlock.

"Fine, I shall do it I suppose. It means I'll get to be somewhere I at least know something about."

"Good. As usual term starts on the first of September. However the teachers all gather here to start getting ready on the seventh of August. See you then. Until that day, goodbye."

"See you in three weeks then!" Molly said as we all walked out the door.

"Well, I'll be honest. That's not what I expected when I got the owl." I said, exhausted.

"Nor was I. How about you Sherlock?"

"I of course knew exactly what she wanted the moment we walked into the office. However, upon receiving the letter I did not immediately understand what was happening."

"Way to go...Sherly." I said

By this time we were at the gates that lead to the outer world. They could see a carriage for each of them on the other side.

"Well this is goodbye for now until the seventh I suppose. See you both then." Sherlock dismissed Molly and I.

"See you Molly. Bye for now, Sherly."

Sherlock shuddered that time.

"See you John. Bye Sherlock!" That was punctuated with a kiss on the cheek to both of us and then Molly flounced off to her carriage. Sherlock and I shook hands and without another word, stepped into our respective carriages. The weeks until the seventh were dull and filled with making lesson plans and getting supplies. Finally the sixth of August arrived and I started the journey up to Hogwarts.
