I don't have to write the disclaimers for every chapter rite?

'So' he started, rubbing his hands together. 'I see you've been given some starters on The Unforgivable Curses in your...' he pondered thoughtfully. Hermione spoke up: 'In our fourth year Professor!' she said. 'Right you are, Miss...' Professor Covey articulated. 'Granger' Hermione replied confidently. Lavender was looking daggers at her. 'Now, you've had a...well...a very inappropriate teacher in your fifth year. This will be a major drawback. ('He doesn't know Harry gave us DADA classes last year!' Ron whispered) I'm surprised you passed your O.W.Ls!' he added. 'We will, for now, start off with the Defense, however, I assure you, that we will surely be doing our Dark Arts recognition shortly' he said in a very professional manner. The class fidgeted excitedly in their seats.

He called on their names and they all rose their hands or said 'Present' when their name was called. Lavender had to shake Parvati, as she had been staring dreamily at Professor Covey and didn't hear him call her name. 'Sorry' she mumbled, flushing red. Harry and Ron snickered receiving a stern glare from Parvati who was still very red in the face. Professor Covey turned out to be very professional, which was quite a thing considering he was so young. He gave some more notes on the three Unforgivable Curses and how to repel them. However, unlike Mad-eye Moody he didn't perform the curses on them.

Overall the class went very well. Professor Covey started on Junhles; small, dark, smoky creatures that could petrify you by their touch or make you fall unconscious if you got a whiff of their bad breath. He had one Junhle in a huge glass box. It hung upside down and hissed at all of them, as they closed in on it taking a good look.

'Not bad' Ron admitted. 'I thought it was going to be lousy' he added thoughtfully.

'Really Mr. Weasley? I hope you don't find these lousy, because I must warn you, don't under estimate Junhles. They are very powerful creatures' spoke up Professor Covey making Ron's ears turn red with embarrassment.

Hermione giggled at the look of flushed discomfiture on Ron's face. Just then, the bell rang signaling the end of the lesson. Professor Covey turned towards the class and said: 'I hope you found this class interesting enough to continue attending it, it was a pleasure teaching you all' he smiled gracefully and made them line out of the class. All the girls chattered away happily about how nice the class had went and how well a teacher Professor Covey was.

The Gryffindor trio walked out of the class and into the corridor. The door of the DADA room closed out of its own accord once everyone except Mr. Covey was outside. They started to walk off in silence to their Transfiguration class. After a few minutes however, Harry spoke up:

'That was really good' he said truthfully.

'Oh yes!' said Hermione abruptly

'Oh yes!' Ron mimicked her. She shot a severe glance at him then continued to talk:

'It was really good, his manner is so professional and he does have a graceful way of doing everything' she smiled.

'Yeah... you know what?' Harry started, ignoring the looks Ron gave him. 'He actually reminds me of Professor Lupin'

Ron gasped in an outrageous way. 'How dare you! That is an insult to Lupin!' he accused

'Oh come on Ron!' Hermione enunciated, rolling her eyes exasperatedly. 'Just because he overheard you in class and gave a very witty remark, according to me, doesn't mean you should hate him! He's a really good teacher, I think you ought to admit that' she said, giving him a stern glare as if daring him to say Professor Covey was no good.

'Yeah' Ron mumbled.

'Oh no!' said Hermione suddenly. 'What?' Ron and Harry chorused back.

'I forgot my Transfiguration book back there in the DADA room! My bag was too full so I thought I'd carry it around!' she said, slapping her hand on her forehead frustratingly. 'Are any of you coming with me?' she asked hopefully. 'Oh! Forget it you two!' she said angrily, at the looks Harry and Ron gave her and ran off towards the DADA room to get her book back. How could she forget it? It was probably the firs time ever! She mentally scolded herself as she sped off towards the classroom.

'D'you think she really forgot her book?' Ron asked Harry skeptically as they watched Hermione's retreating back. Harry shrugged.

Hermione sped off towards the DADA classroom, mentally scolding herself for being so careless. It was the first day and already she was forgetting her things in classes. She prayed that Professor Covey would be there in the classroom when she came so that she didn't have to wait so long. It would make such a bad impression on the new Professor! Anyways... no use crying over spilt milk! She finally reached the DADA classroom and knocked three times smartly on the door. A small 'Come in' was heard and she wrenched the door open and went inside. Explaining the situation to Professor Covey, who had been sitting there preparing his next lesson, and apologizing for her carelessness, she left the room with her huge Transfiguration book in her hand.

She turned a bend and hurried onwards, she was bound to be late! This was going to spoil everything! She was never late for a class... Breaking into a slow run she was feet away from the class room when... SMACK! She bumped into someone. 'Oh' she groaned as she collected the scattered books that were strewn on the floor. This sure wasn't her lucky day! Annoyed, she looked up. Déjà vu! She silently gasped. The usually cold grey eyes now looked concernedly into her own. 'Sorry! Are you okay?' – This snapped Hermione out of her reverie. 'Huh?' she muttered. 'Yeah, I'm fine!' she added quickly and firmly, so as not to look too amazed by the sight in front of her. Draco Malfoy's lips turned into a true smile. Hermione was too amazed to say anything. 'Here' said Draco, offering his hand to help her up. Hermione realized she'd been sitting on the floor all this while. She quickly got up and, securing the books in her hands she walked with dignity towards the Transfiguration classroom, clearly amazed at what had just happened... Had her dream actually come true?

Right... how was that?? Thank you all lovely little reviewers out there! I love you!!! Review for the next chapter!
