It was 4:15 my potion class started at 3pm and ended in fifteen minutes. I was surely going to be late. It was Harry's birthday, so earlier I went to buy him a present. The train ride back took longer than I had expected. As I was approaching Professor Snape's room I could smell the potions the class was brewing. Maybe he would be teaching something important and I had missed it. That grumpy old man would defiantly be deducting points from the Gryffindor's house. When I reached the closed door I stood outside for awhile. I knew that as soon as I walked in his head would lift from his desk and his black silky hair would fall in front of his face. He would probably get up and embarrass me in front of the whole class like always. From outside the door I could hear him yelling at Ron for not doing the potion in order so therefore he was a useless twit. I slightly cracked the door open hoping that Ron would keep him busy so I could sneak in.

"Ms. Granger I suppose you had a lovely time skipping most of my class." He said standing away from Ron and walking to his desk.

"I...I.."

"Stutter Ms. Granger? Surely you never had a speech impediment before. Unless...you are on some kind of illegal substance. Are you intoxicated Ms. Granger?"

"No! Professor what a absurd thing to say. Even if I was that is in no interest to you. Nor should it be."

"100 points from Gryffindor. Detention Ms. Granger, one week and...make that two weeks."

"Why 100 points?"

"Because...I don't like you that much right now. Is that a swell enough answer for you Granger? Be in the dungeons six o'clock sharp."

It took everything out of me not to have a sarcastic answer back to his rudeness. Today was Harry's birthday and instead of spending it with him and Ron I'd be with Professor Snape. The dinner bell rang and all the student would go and eat dinner in the Great Hall. At dinner Ron was shoving his mouth with food. Harry was talking about how good it felt like to be eighteen finally.

"Harry I'm sorry I wont be able to spend time with you on your birthday."

"Hermione. Really, its fine."

"Well hopefully this will make up for it." I handed him a wrapped box.

"A present for me!" I watched as his eyes lite up with joy. It was his favorite candy and a t-shirt with Ron, Harry's, and my face on it. He thanked me and gave a tight hug.

"Sorry Mione. No offense but I feel bad for you spending time with that old grease ball rumbled up in cow...dung. He's not even a graceful potions teacher. I mean nobody likes him."

Harry and I both start laughing at Ron's last comment. I looked up at the teachers table and found Snape already starring down at the three of us.

"Well better get a go guys. Maybe if I go ten minutes earlier I can get out sooner."

"Good luck." Harry said before I left.

I walked out of the Great Hall. All the students laughter and the smell of food slowly started to fade away after I started walking a little. The dungeons were very dark and creepy. Even when I was with Harry and Ron they even made me get goose bumps. Professor Snape's classroom was the only one in the dungeons. The dungeons had its own hall which made his classroom very isolate from the rest of the school. I hesitated a bit thinking if it was worth going. I stood behind the huge wooden door to his classroom and knocked.

"Professor, may I enter."

"OH MY GOD! OHH! OH, OH, OH. OH MY GOD! BLOODY HELL!"

I heard him screaming and moaning inside the classroom. What could he possibly be doing. He seemed he didn't even hear my knock. I grabbed the door knob and with all my courage slowly start to open to huge heavy wooden door. Then I saw..
