Author's note: Hello! This chapter is for you Coded-Memories, my one follower! Thanks dearest, you get big hugs and brownies and treacle tarts.
All the wonderful world of Harry Potter is not mine. It's JKR's...maybe if I married her we could share? I want some Harry Potter world...
Anyway, Here goes! Hope you enjoy...
Katarina was bored. She hated potions. It wasn't even that she was bad at it, she just couldn't stand the subject and therefore never tried. All the stirring and smelling and obsessive chopping just wasn't her thing. It was because of this that she found herself slouched over the desk as Professor Slughorn bleated on about Golpalott's Third Law. Fortunately, she sat next to Coco in this lesson, so they mostly laughed and chatted throughout the entire time. Unfortunately, Coco was not gifted at the subject even though she approached her tasks with such enthusiasm- something always ended up singed or splattered. Both girls were quite contentedly drowsing into a dreamlike state when all of a sudden everyone around them jumped to their feet and started bustling around.
"Er…Coco?" Kat asked, "What are we doing?"
"Erm…I wasn't listening." Coco replied, oblivious. They were about to get up and pretend they knew what was happening when Slughorn came over.
"Ah, my two troublesome Slytherins!" he said with a wide smile, "I actually thought of perhaps moving you around a little in order to… help with your improvements." He said delicately. Although Coco and Kat's grades were terrible and only sometimes scraped a pass, they were from rich, influential families, so Slughorn always treated them with utmost respect.
"Move us around, sir?" Coco enquired, in her 'polite voice'.
"Yes, I think it would be best. Now, let me see…ah, Coco, you can go with Mr. Snape here and Katarina, how about Miss Lily Evans?" His words caused his two star pupils to look up from their front desks and over to the Slytherins at the back. The girls watched with bitter amusement as their concentrated faces contorted into ones of horror. It seemed that Slughorn did not realise what he'd started because his smile remained stuck on his face as he looked expectantly between the two pairs. Coco realized she had no choice- at least she would be next to a Slytherin- so rose elegantly from her seat, collected her books and bag and walked over to the front. She sneered as Evans passed her. Katarina, on the other hand, huffed and slouched even further over her desk. Lily Evans and Katarina Marić- the class held their breath for disaster.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Katarina yelled as Evans once again "accidently" squirted more leech juice on her.
"Oh, I do apologise," Evans replied, sickly sweet, "here, let me wipe that off." She grabbed a tissue out of her pocket and made to dab away at Kat's shirt.
"Get your filthy hands off of me," Katarina said in a deadly voice. This made Evans falter and her mouth opened and closed a few times before she moved her hand away. Kat smirked, but the action seemed to wake Evans up
."Well, I would have finished squeezing these things if you helped." Evans snarled.
"Bitch, please, there's a reason you're sitting next to me: so my grades improve. So, how about this; you do the work, I'll get the grades." Kat smiled at Evans' outraged face. "Or, you could cross me and, believe me, your virgin ass won't be looking the same when I'm done." By this time, all the sixth years were leaning in, hanging off every word. Katarina continued, in a silky soft voice, "I mean, what could you do? You're just a mudblood."
The class gasped. Tears sprang into Evans' eyes, and then lots of things happened at once. There was an animalistic roar, James Potter leaped forward towards Kat, like a panther pouncing on its prey, a flash of red light shot from the front of the classroom and suddenly sticky, burning liquid was covering the room and James Potter was left with his head stuck in a cauldron, legs helplessly upright.
Phoenix was staring. Nikola was there, just two meters away, looking fucking beautiful. It was lunch time, Coco and Kat hadn't yet returned from potions and Inara was having a smoke on the grounds. So Phoenix was alone, left with her thoughts. However, these thoughts were definitely not pining. No, Phoenix was planning. She would get herself that girl. Of course, it did briefly cross her mind that she might be straight, but when had that made a difference in the past? Phoenix was still plotting away when Inara, Kat and Coco all strode into the hall. They spotted Phoenix almost straight away, as she was at their usual spot at the centre of the table, and sat in the space that all the other Slytherins knew to stay out of.
"Oh my Merlin, Phoenix, Inara- guess what happened in potions just now?" Kat exclaimed, smiling like crazy.
"What?" they both said together. Coco and Kat both explained the bizarre events that had just taken place. All four were crying with laughter.
"-so him and Evans just got carted off to the hospital wing," Coco managed to choke out, as images of Potter hanging upside down, legs waving wildly remained in her head.
"All because you stunned him?" Inara asked Coco.
"Well, it's not my fault Kat's potion was still at the corrosive stage." Coco reasoned, "anyway, what about you guys? Any thoughts on the whole Nikola situation?" Two of the girls answered with shrugs, but Phoenix began to smirk.
"Oh, I have a plan."
Author's note: Thank you so much for reading! Now, it's the even funner part...REVIEWING! Woo! Lets do it. Please. It's scary having views and not knowing what people are thinking. Love it? Tell me and I'll keep writing! Hate it? I'll probably still write it but tell me what's wrong! What do you want? What don't you want? I just need some reviews! It's all good, my friends.
Next chapter I'm planning some nice Marauder action because, however Slytherin you are, you can't deny their sexiness. Furthermore, I'm hoping for some naughty scenes if you're up for it. But, you know, I'll never know unless you review...not trying to nag or anything.
Peace. I have love for you.
