AN: Harry Potter fan fiction? What madness.

I've been reading the Harry Potter series again and felt I could write something. My favorite teacher/professor had always been Remus Lupin. So here's a quick, ten minute drabble I'm about to do.

Featuring my old, nameless fan character (who is now named): Estella. She's half-blood, in Gryffindor, and likes Cauldron Cakes. :D

Takes place in Harry's third year of Hogwarts. Book.

I have a what now?

Estella adjusted her robe and picked up her textbook. Letting out a sigh, she stalked out of the classroom...

"Est!"

Hermione called from behind her. Estella turned, her brown eyes widened. Hermione was smiling rather broadly, her bushy brown hair falling over her shoulders. "Yeah?" Estella acknowledged, pausing in her tracks to wait for her friend.

Hermione did not waste much time. She gripped Estella's robe and forcibly dragged her out of the classroom. "H-Hey, Hermione?" Estella exclaimed, trying to keep balance. She waved at Professor Lupin as she was dragged out. Lupin waved back at her.

After about a minute of struggling, Hermione finally released her grip. Estella adjusted her robe once more and shot the girl a glare. "What was that for?" Estella demanded, her eyebrows raised curiously. Hermione giggled lightly.

Oh no. Bad sign to Estella. "Hermione, spillllllll..." Estella dragged the last word, whacking Hermione lightly on the shoulders. Hermione finally calmed down, and finally managed to speak, "I think I know what's going through your head, Est."

Oh there she went again: The usual know-it-all routine. "What?" Estella asked, walking to Transfiguration class with Hermione beside her. Hermione let out another laugh, "I'm starting to think you...you know. Do you actually like Professor Lupin? Have a crush on him, maybe?"

Estella turned pink and bit her bottom lip. "H-How about you liking Lockhart last year?" She challenged, stammering slightly. It was Hermione's turn to flush red, but her blush wore off quickly, "That was ages ago, Est! Anyway, Harry and Ron think so too. I mean, look at how you stare at him in class..."

Estella snorted angrily. She was a mere student. Crusing on a teacher was plain...weird. "I most certainly do now have a crush on Professor Lupin. My parents would freak if they thought so." The conversation ended, and they both stalked off to class.

Extended Ending!

"Oooo, what's this? Ass-stella has a crush on Loopy Lupin?"

Estella paused in her tracks along with Hermione. That voice was awfully familiar to the both of them. Could it be...

"Oh no, it's Peeves." Hermione whined, watching the ghost come through a nearby portrait of a random knight. Estella grumbled at the way Peeves said her name, "That's ES-Stella. Not ass. What do you want, Peeves?"

Peeves had a Chesire grin spread across his face as he cackled, "Just wait until the entire school knows about this!"

And he disappeared through the walls once more.

Estella's eye twitched in annoyance. "Est?" Hermione said softly. Estella slapped her face on her forehead.

"God damn it."

AN: No guys.

I never had a crush on a teacher before. :D

I don't think I'll continue this, but hey.

It was fun. Sorry if Hermione was OOC D:
