Disclaimer – do I look old enough to drink? :)

Alice POV

"So, Edward, are you ready for classes tomorrow?" I said excitedly.

"Alice, shut up for a second. I'm thinking." He screwed up his eyes, and tried to concentrate.

"Oh, come on. Did you really think you'd end up in the same house as Bella?" I asked.

"Shut up," he mumbled.

"You did, didn't you? You're so naïve!" I laughed.

"Alice, I'm trying to concentrate. Leave me alone." He pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to block me out. I chuckled, and took out my cell phone, hoping to text Jasper.

"That won't work here!" a girl with long black hair, and very tan skin said from behind me. "Trust me, I've tried. All the spells on the school make your phone go insane. I'm Padma, by the way. Padma Patil."

"Nice to meet you," I said, falling into step behind her, leaving Edward far behind us. "Are you in my year?"

"I think so. You're in sixth, right?" Padma asked.

"Yeah, you?"

"Yes. Which classes are you taking?"

"Divination, Care of Magical Creatures and Arithmancy, and then the other normal classes. I wanted to take Muggle Studies, but I didn't have enough time. You?"

"The same things as you, but not Arithmancy. It's the toughest subject out there." We continued to talk about different subjects until we went to bed that night.

Ok, this is the first day of classes. I'm going to do… Nessie POV. And I have to make up the names of like everyone there cause almost no one is mentioned in the books! Help me with the names. I think I'm gonna do the first class with the 5th years, and the next one with the 6th years – Gryffindor and Slytherin, Potions, when Harry finds the Half Blood Prince's book.

Nessie POV

"Sweet! We have charms first thing!" Ginny cried at breakfast the next morning. "With Hufflepuff!"

"Ooh, Nessie gets to be with Jake!" Adele teased.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," I mumbled, blushing. Curse my mothers blushing habits.

"Then Transfiguration, Care of Magical Creatures, Defense, and double Potions. Ew!" Elisa listed.

"Then Divination," added Ginny, "and Herbology. Not too bad for a Monday."

"I dunno," said Ron, sitting down between Ginny and me, "I think we got it worse. I mean, double Defense and double History of Magic. Ugh. I'm sure we'll get loads of homework from Snape."

"And then double History!" Harry groaned, loading food onto his plate.

"Hey!" I said.

"Sorry," replied Harry quickly. "I thought we still had Binns."

"Well, at least we got to drop Divination," Ron sighed, eating some toast.

"We have Charms first thing!" gloated Adele, "And only one period of Divination. And Care of Magical Creatures!"

"W00t w00t!" said Elisa, high-fiving her. "Hey, were American."

"Oh! Look! It's Hagrid!" Hermione cried. She, Ginny and Adele stood on their spots on the benches to wave at a gigantic man coming into the Great Hall. He returned the wave, and sat down in a chair almost twice as big as those of the other teachers.

"Who's Hagrid?" I asked.

"Gamekeeper," answered Ginny, spooning oatmeal onto her plate. "He's half giant."

"GAINT?" I said I awe.

"Yeah," continued Elisa, "but don't mention it around him."

"No problem. That's so cool!" I sighed. There was so much to learn about this world.

"Oh yeah, he also teaches Care of Magical Creatures," added Hermione.

"Cool. When do classes start?" I decided to try some of the scrambled eggs – they had always been my favorite.

"20 minutes. It takes like 5 minutes to get to the charms room, so we have to finish eating in like 15 minutes," said Adele, "pass me the toast."

15 minutes later, we were walking into Charms. "So then, Fred and George shot off about 200 fireworks throughout the school," said Ginny, laughing. "And Umbrige had to run all over the school with Filch to try to catch them."

"Ah, good times," Adele sighed, wiping tears of laughter from my eyes, "good times."

"Children, please take your seats!" squeaked tiny Professor Flitwick, standing, as usual, on a few books, placed on his desk chair. "Welcome back! Today, we have three new students with us. Jacob Black, Seth Clearwater and Renesmee Cullen. Mr Black, Mr Clearwater, Ms Cullen, please come up and tell us a little bit about you."

Jake decided to go first. "I'm Jacob, usually know as Jake, and I'm from Washington. I don't know what else."

Seth chose to go next. "I'm Seth, also from Washington, and, umm, let's see, my sister Leah is in 6th year in Slytherin. That's about it."

Then, it was my turn. I blushed furiously. "I'm Renesmee, almost always known as Nessie, and I'm from Washington. That's it." Jake wolf-whistled, causing almost everyone to laugh. I blushed even deeper as I walked back to my seat.

"That wasn't too bad," said Ginny kindly.

"Yes it was," I mumbled, my head in my hands. "I'm horrible under pressure."

"You were fine," Adele comforted. "Don't worry about it. You'll forget it in 5 minutes."

She was right. We were practicing summoning charms, and soon enough the whole room was full of flying purple cushions. "You were right," I said to Adele, "this is an awesome class."

"Whoever said that must've been a smarty!" she replied, smiling. "Accio!" The cushion she was summoning flew towards her, and landed neatly on her desk. By the end of the class, only she and Elisa had mastered the charm, although Ginny had gotten very close, managing to make her cushion fly across the room, over her head, and out the window. Our homework was to practice the spell for the next day.

Our next class was transfiguration, with the Slytherins. It was taught by our head of house, a strict woman named Professor McGonagall. We learned how to transfigure a pin-cushion into a porcupine, although, once again, few people mastered the spell, and only Adele and Elisa's looked porcupine-y, and we were given more homework for Transfiguration.


*****

Ok, now it's time for Harry's first Potions lesson taught by Slughorn. Background - those of you who have read book 6 will know that, when Snape taught Potions, he only let people who got Outstanding into his NEWT classes. And, since Harry wanted to be an Auror, he wanted to take Potions. But, since he got an Exceeds Expectations, he didn't think he was going to take potions. But, he found out from McGonagall that Slughorn accepted people that got Es, he and Ron decided to take Potions. But, they didn't have to supplies, so they had to borrow supplies from the old Potions cabinet. I'll take it from there. ;)

I think I'll do…

Hermione POV (oh and PS, this most definitely is NOT word for word from the book. And, I may be wrong, but I think they were making Felix Felicis or however you spell it. But lol while I write this I'm gonna look at the book ;])

"Welcome! Please take your seats!" Slughorn waddled to the front of the class. The dungeons where the Potions lesson was usually held was full of light filtering from the windows, and unusual advantage of not having Snape as the teacher. I looked around at the room, and saw many various potions. I gasped. In the cauldron next to Slughorn's desk was, if I was not mistaken, the very rare Felix Felicis. I also saw things like the all to familiar Polyjuice Potion, Veritaserum, and Amortentia. "Now, before we start, I would like to test your potion knowledge. Lets start with a rather simple one." He pointed to the Veritaserum. I raised my hand quickly, always loving to make a good first impression. "Yes, dear?" Slughorn looked at me.

"That's Veritaserum. It's a potion almost indistinguishable from water, and it makes the drinker tell the truth," I recited.

"Very good! Next, we have a potion made quite famous by the ministry." I put up my hand before Slughorn finished talking.

"It's Polyjuice Potion. It causes the drinker to take the shape of another for a short period of time," I said quickly.

"Impressive. And I suppose you know what this is?" He pointed to the mother-of-pearl colored potion.

"Amortentia!"

"And, I suspect you know what it is?" He asked, a broad smile appearing on his face.

"It's the world's most powerful love potion!"

"Very good! And what, may I ask, is your name, dear?"

"Hermione Granger!" I said, glowing with pride.

"Are you perhaps related to the founder of the Most Extraordinary Society of Potioneers, Hector Dagworth-Granger?"

"I doubt so. I'm Muggle-born."

"Harry!" he said, looking at Harry, who was sitting next to me and Emmett. "Is this, by any chance, the girl you referred to when you said to me that 'One of my best friends is Muggle-born, and she's the best in our year!'?"

"Yes!" said Harry loudly, looking at Malfoy with a broad grin on his face.

"Wonderful! Take 20 points for Gryffindor Ms Granger!" Slughorn continued to walk around the room, discussing various potions.

"Harry, did you really say that?" I asked, smiling.

"Well, it's true!" said Ron, rather rudely.

I smiled, but did not reply. "Sir, I think you forgot that one!" said Ernie Macmillar, pointing to the Felix Felicis on Slughorn's desk.

"Oho, yes. Does anyone know what this is?" Slughorn's eyes surveyed the students, coming to rest on me last. I was practically hopping out of my seat. "Yes, Ms Granger?"

"It's Felix Felicis. It's, well, liquid luck!" I said excitedly. Everyone suddenly perked up.

"Very good! Take another 10 points. Felix Felicis is very well described as liquid luck. It causes the taker to suceed in everything he or she does, until the effects wear off. But, it can be dangerous if too much is taken. It will cause overconfidence, which could lead to recklessness. And that will be the prize for the best made potion today! Now, - ah, Mr Potter?"

"Sir," said Harry, "Ron and I haven't got supplies or books. We didn't think we'd be taking potions this year."

"No problem, no problem. Here," Slughorn went over to the old cabinet at the end of the room, and took out very old supplies and books, and gave them to Harry and Ron, "you can use these until you can recieve more from Flourish and Blotts. As I was saying, today we will be making the Draft of Living Death. A little of a challenge, but I think you can manage it. Off you go!" Slughorn waddled back to his desk. I immediately took out my book. If I had the Felix, I could get a date with Ron… I snapped out of my fantasies, and began to make the potion. In ten minutes, I was making good progress. Concentrating hard on my potion, I some more ingredients, and began to stir. But my potion wouldn't change color! I glaced over at Harry's, and saw that his potion, unlike my dark purple one, was a pale rose-color.

"How did you do that?" I asked.

"If you stir it clockwise-" he started.

"The book said counterclockwise!" I snapped, furious with my un-budging potion. He muttered something that sounded like "suit yourself," and continued his stirring method. Maybe I should try clockwise, I thought, no, no, the book said counterclockwise. Maybe one try… I was about to stir it clockwise when Slughorn stood up.

"Times up! Please step back from your cauldrons." He began to stride around the room. Occasionally he would sniff the potion, nodding once in a while. When he came to our table, he passed over Emmett's cement-like potion without comment, gave a little smile at mine, and then stopped dead at Harry's. "Wow! Amazing! The winner is Harry! Here you go, dear boy, a bottle of Felix Felicis, good for 12 hours of good luck." I was livid. I walked out of the room, leaving Slughorn purring over Harry's perfect potion. I almost ran into Ginny, Adele, Nessie and Elisa, who were coming back from Care of Magical Creatures. I managed a smile, when Harry and Ron caught up with me.

"Hermione, why are you mad?" asked Harry.

"Because! You didn't follow the directions!" I snapped.

"Hermione, I found things written in my book. I took a chance, and followed them. What's the big deal? I wasn't cheating," he said defiantly.

"What? Harry, you're taking orders from a book?" Ginny asked, suddenly hooked on our conversation.

"It's not like the diary, Ginny," answered Harry, "it's just an old Potions book!"

"Ginny's got a point," I said, glad to get a reason to see the book. "Give me the book. Specialis Revelio!" I tapped the book with my wand. Nothing happened.

"Can I have it back now?" Harry asked coldly, "Or is it supposed to start dancing?"

"I guess there's nothing wrong with it," I said quietly.

"Thank you," Harry snapped, grabbing the book out of my hands. I began talking to Adele and Nessie about their Care of Magical Creatures lesson as we headed towards the Great Hall for lunch.

Yay! Three chapters in three days! I'm so proud of myself. :]

So, review it, and I'll post more chapters soon. But probably not before Monday cause I have a report that needs writing and math homework that needs doing.

REVIEW PLEASE!

Till next time,

Adele :)
