Here's chapter two! Thanks for the favorites and reviews!

as usual, I obviously don't own any familiar characters


The first couple days back were a whirl wind of events. Apparently a wizard broke out of Azkaban and was likely after Harry Potter. Because of this there was an attack on the train supposedly, and currently dementors all over the grounds. Juno had the misfortune of getting to close to one of then on her way to herbology on the second day of classes. The feelings that overwhelmed her were unexplainable, it felt as if the world was ending, but worse. The days went on rather similar to that day, reports of students getting to close, followed with the gossip of who reacted the worst, Potter still being the winner of that category. Other then that, things were relatively normal. N.E.W.T level classes already had the seventh years swimming in homework and each hour in class only made it worse.

Juno grabbed the bowl of porcupine quills from the burly boy next to her and placed them on her side of the table, shooting him a glare "if you want to pass this, just let me do out. Ours a wonder you managed to get this far in this class" she spat, looking into her cauldron. Potions was one of get best classes, but for the past three years she had been partnered with none other then Oliver Wood. Gryffindor quidditch captain, keeper, and the pride and joy of the house. Boys wanted to be him, girls wanted to be with him. Probably because they didn't know how crazy he was. All they saw was his tall figure, fit body and his handsome face. There was no denying it, he was a good looking bloke. He also drove Juno mental

"You know, I won't learn anything if you don't let me do it" he commented as he added something to the potion, causing Juno to gasp and move in an attempt to undo what he did. The potion turned from the bright blue it was supposed to be to a dark, pukey green. There was no telling what kind of reaction it would have now.

"what was that?" she asked through gritted teeth. Hopefully it was at least something that was supposed to go in soon.

Oliver shrugged, pushing the small container towards the angry blonde "Unicorn tail it looks like" he said.

"Are you serious Wood? You did that on purp-" before she could finish her sentence the was a loud bang and the ugly green liquid was everywhere. A whoosh of black was at their desk the moment it happened and the pair found themselves looking at the hooknose that took residency in the center of professor Snape's face.

"ten points from Hufflepuff and Gryffindor for you incompetence. You will both be joining me after class for detention. I expect better from you miss Roberts" The blonde nodded in agreeance before glaring daggers at her partner. "The rest of you, potions on my desk in five minutes" he snapped, turning on the spot and taking his place at the front of the classroom once more.

"This wouldn't have happened if you just let me help Roberts" his face mocked anger and his sung song voice deceived his attempt to seem upset with her. Her had done that deliberately to get under her skin, which just made things worse. With a heave of her chest, Juno let out an annoyed sigh but chose to keep her mouth shut. Instead of letting him get the best of her, she started cleaning up her note books, muttering a cleaning spell here and there. Might as well use it now as Snape wouldn't allow magic in detention. Oliver took that time to lean back in his chair with a large dopey grin on his face "Silent treatment already? We've only been here an hour" a roar of laughter echoed through the room, causing the professor to turn hood attention to them again and place a threatening finger over his lips to silence the Scottish boy.

When the rest of the class filtered out of the room, Snape came to them and confiscated their wands informing them, as Juno had predicted, that they would not be needing them this afternoon. With that the greasy man left the room. This seemed to be more of a punishment to Juno then it did to Oliver as she noticed him grinning away. No doubt that without quidditch season being here, the captain had a lot of time on his hands so this was merely an excuse that gave him something entertaining to do.

With another huff, the Hufflepuff headed to the cleaning supplies. She grabbed the cauldron polish and a couple of rags before heading to her seat "Get the cauldrons please" Juno demands, not wanting to bother with him, but she knew if she didn't they'd be there all night. Oliver threw his hands up defensively, a large grin spreading across his face, and slowly walked to the cauldrons. He took his time, but soon enough they were polishing them in the sweet sound of silence.

The bliss that was Oliver Wood keeping that massive Scot mouth of his shut was short lived and soon enough the boy was trying to make idle conversation "They didn't captain you this year then?" he asked, shooting a pang of jealousy through the Hufflepuff girl. Juno simply shook her head and continued working "I would have thought for sure out would be you. Diggory is good, but you're all around a better player. You've got the brains" he continued giving get a wink when she looked up to him

"I didn't want it" Juno shrugged, lying through her teeth. She had wanted it more then anything and for the second time someone else was chosen. She was happy for Cedric, but a little upset because he didn't really want it like she did. Letting out a sigh Juno pointed to his cauldron "you missed a spot Wood" she stated, putting the one she had been working on to the side.

Juno flopped down on her favourite chair in the cozy Hufflepuff common room, letting out a dramatic sigh as she did so. Penny, who had her noise in a transfiguration book rolled her dark brown eyes and snapped the book shut, looking at her over dramatic befriend. "what happened?" she asked placing the book in the empty spot next to her.

"Oliver sodding Wood is what happened" Juno sat up straight in her chair so she could make eye contact with Penny "we were reviewing in potions, doing a simple sleeping drought and the idiot just threw in unicorn tail hair. It exploded everywhere, we got points docked. He's insufferable Penny!" Melodrama wasn't a foreign concept to Juno, she tended to take things way to seriously. Penny let out a cute laugh as she got up from her seat and stretched causing boys to turn and look. Penny was a stunning girl, curves in the right places, dark skin, perfect hair, freckles on her cheeks and nose. The irony in it? She had no clue how beautiful she was.

Juno on the other hand had unruly blonde curls, pale skin which never seemed to take colour, and barely anything in the chest department. Next to her best friend she looked like a house elf with hair in her opinion. "You'll survive Juns. Now I think I'm gong to shower and head to bed, you coming?" she asked as she let her arms fall to her sides.

Juno shook her head "I need to finish up that scroll for transfiguration" she replied. Her hands moved to her silky, black and yellow tie and pulled it off, placing it next to her "I won't be too late" she smiled and watched as Penny shrugged and entered the hallway that lead to the 7th year girls dorm.
