Trinkets

I wake up from another nightmare, thankfully the others are too preoccupied with the buzz from the Fire Whiskey, though it was little, they cannot hold their liquor, to wake up. I look out the window and see the full moon; she forever looks upon this world, smiling alone.

"Will I be like you?" I say to the moon, "Smiling at the people who find what they are meant for, but never truly becoming a star myself?"

I get up, get dressed into my robes and do the incantation to make myself invisible and go for another walk, this time I go to the potions room. I take off the incantation and start brewing a Calming Draught; it always makes me feel better to make things that could help others.

"Flamel?" Snape asks walking in, "What the hell are you doing here at this late hour?"

I jump and turn around, "Sorry Professor, I had a nightmare and thought I would brew a Calming Draught. It helps me relax, potions, thought I would use the irony and make one."

"Well," he says yawning, "It is one-thirty in the morning. Wait… how did you get down here without getting caught?"

"Durmstrang isn't called a 'Death Eater Camp' for nothing," I reply, adding in the next ingredient, "The school is known for its private detectives, spies and what not."

"I think you would be a great Potions Master," he says, waking up a bit more by the minute, "Now if I give you a dreamless sl-"

"No, I'm taking your advice," I tell him, "I'm learning a lot about what the future holds."

He stays silent, but I know he is contemplating what I had just said, "Okay, then."

"Would you like me to leave?" I say getting a few vials and pouring the substance inside them.

"Actually, I was supposed to make those and three other healing potions for Poppy," he says, "One down, three to go."

"Would you like to do them?" I ask, "You look as though you are about to fall over."

"No," then he goes to his desk and pulls out a Pepperup Potion and drinks it, "There, but you can help me."

"Okay," I say "What do you need to make?"

"More Pepperup, Skele-grow and Blood-Replenishing," he says.

"I'll make the Skele-grow," I say, it takes the longest and is the most complicated.

"Alright, let's get to work."

We work and he asks me questions about potions, we finish them all at the same time, "Professor, how did you know I was here?"

"I told you I had to brew these," he says, but the 'truth' doesn't reach his eyes.

"Professor, I think you have an alarm on your door and equipment room to wake you or make you aware," I say.

"Quick AND Smart," he says, "I wish you were in my house instead of your friends, those… what do you call them? Twins? They aren't even related."

"They are always together and act like the Weasley Twins, sir," I reply, "they are in Slytherin because they NEVER get caught and the Weasley Twins are well known and would take credit anyway."

"Good point," he says.

The sun starts to rise and I check the time, "It is five-thirty Professor."

"I realize that," he replies.

"You know, Lily, when I still lived with the Potters as their pathetic son, would talk about you constantly."

"Really?" he asks, "I called her a mudblood and that was the end of our friendship."

"I know, but she would talk about the good times, but then when James got home she would talk shit on you," I say, "I wonder if you two went far beyond friendship, in her mind."

"I don't know," he says, we both sit, "I loved her, but that one stupid incident, your once father and godfathers broke my leg before and I tried to hide my tears, but it didn't work, I cried all the way to the Hospital Wing. They were on their brooms flying circles above my head, except Remus, we were pretty close then, but I called Lily that name and we were still friends, we would act like we hated each other. I brewed his potions for him and he would try and keep his friends away from me, but it never worked."

"Did they ever get into trouble?" I ask.

"No," he says, "I was and still am a Slimy Slytherin, while their group was the Perfect Gryffindors, they would say I provoked them and just wanted them in trouble, Albus always believed them over me."

I sigh, "James could talk his way around everything. I'm sorry that happened Professor."

"It's in the past, it cannot be undone," he sighs, "Lily told me that she always made excuses for why we were friends, but it didn't matter, we would never be friends due to our houses hating one another."

"Professor, with the tournament going on, many students have stuck up for your kids, befriended them, the only people who aren't happy about it are Dumbledore, Hayden and Ron, along with parts of their little 'Order' because it goes against what they wanted."

"Yes, thanks to you and your friends," he says smiling, "I wonder what will happen when the schools leave…"

"Don't worry, it should be fine."

We talk for a bit longer then the bell for breakfast is about to start rings, "We better get on with the day."

"Alright professor," I say as we walk out and heading down the corridor, "Well the dance is about two weeks away, so I have to help Court and Dan with the final lessons."

"Well you can make it up by coming for detentions," he says, "I need some help making all these potions, you can help and make up for the missed days."

"Okay," I say laughing, "I would hate to see what you do to the students you hate."

"I force them to do manual labor to clean the classroom and cauldrons," he says, "No magic."

I laugh, "At Durmstrang, our potion master has us do the one thing we all hate," he eyes me.

"And what would that be?"

"We all loath being with him and his pet, he owns a Chimera," I say, shaking at the thought, "I like the Professor, but his pet gives us all the chills."

He laughs, but the stern expression he always wears appears as we approach the Dining Hall, "I'll see you tonight for detention Mr. Flamel."

"Alright Professor," I say and head over to Ravenclaw.

"What the hell did you do to deserve a detention?" Bhutan asks.

"I snuck into his room and made a fresh batch of Calming Draught," I say.

"That explains a lot," he replies, "So who you going with the dance with?"

"I have a few people who I am interested in," I reply.

"Who are the lucky blokes?" Bhutan asks, now everyone at the table is looking, and many from other tables.

"I hate you," I state, "You know that right?"

"Come on, mate," he says, "I wanna know!"

"It's between Draco, Vik, Cedric and Raul," I reply, thankfully none of them are in here yet, but everyone starts talking.

"Well, whichever bloke you choose better be good to you, or he'll face my wrath," my friend says.

"Who you going with, bro?" I say.

"I'm going with a girl from this 'House'," he replies, "Her name's Luna Lovegood."

"I know her," I say, "Nice girl, a bit weird, but I think you two would be cute together."

He blushes and says thanks, but Dunbledore has to come up and ruin our brotherly moment, "Ryder, may I have a word?"

I glare, "Whatever business we need to speak about can be said in front of my brother and the student body."

The sparkle in his eye disappears, "Fine, it's about Ms. Merliz, she-"

"You're trying to get her out of the school again? Really?" Bhutan says.

He glares, "As I was saying, before I was RUDELY interrupted, she seems to not be feeling well and I'm not sure if Poppy is capable enough to handle it."

I stand and walk towards the front table, getting in front of Madam Pomfrey, "Ma'am, is Professor Merliz ill?"

"No child," she says, "I just checked her out on Albus' request, she had a light fever and was a bit dizzy, but nothing more than that."

"Thank you," I say, I walk away and go to Dumbledore, "Professor if you have a problem with her in the first place, why did you hire her?"

He grumbles, "What was that Professor?" Bhutan asks.

"It was the only way to get Daniel to agree to come and teach."

Courtney stands and walks out, Daniel's eyes are full of hate, his magic spitting out and his pyro-elemental inheritance is coming through. The room gets hotter, the fires rise furiously and the candles above flare, but he eventually follows Court, minutes later they return, "If it is okay with the headmasters and headmistress," Daniel says, "We will be teaching the whole school, instructors included, a new dance that will start off the Ball."

"Alright Mr. Morgan, classes are canceled for today then," the three adults say, many cheer.

Courtney continues, "We will be learning MY favorite dance," this causes many to freeze, we have seen her fast paced dancing, but many instructors do not understand our scared faces, "Daniel could you call up our best female student to be your partner and I'll call the best male?"

"Yes, Love," he replies, "Ms. Lovegood, if you would please join me?" Luna walks up and takes his hand.

"Will Mr. Flamel please join me?" Court asks, I walk up and bow.

"Girls to one side and guys to the other," Daniel says snapping his fingers, causing the tables to disappear, "Then we will show you the same dance, but with instructors."

Court snaps her fingers and a song starts, so does a chalk board to mark our movements, I take her to the floor and we start to move.

The board records what we are doing with our feet in a way to match both sexes;

The song stops and we hit the final pose, many erupt into a frenzy while others groan, "Now we'll slow this down to teach you all," Daniel says, "but I warn you, I will not take not trying. Now which professors would like to try it with us?"

Only two people volunteer, Professor Snape and Professor Sprout and the two dance with Court and Daniel.

By the end of the day everyone is ready for bed and many are spreading rumors about how me and Luna are good at the Tango, but we brush them off, I walk with my brothers to my 'detention' and they all are making bets on who I go with, if only I knew.

"We'll see you tomorrow Ryder," calls Ameth.

"Bye guys!" I say, walking into the room.

"Mr. Flamel," Snape says sitting in his chair.

"Yes sir?"

"We will have to reschedule this detention," he says, trying to regain his breath.

"Thank Merlin," I say.

"I agree," he says, "Have a good night Mr. Flamel."

"Night Professor," I say walking out of the room and back to my room.

I walk into the room to find my roommates already asleep. I am not far behind them, either, I change, lay down and next thing I know it is lights out for me.

Dream

I look into the mirror and see that I am dressed in emerald robes and my hair is slicked back, "I can't wait."

"Ryder?" Hannah asks.

I turn and see her in a deep blue short dress with silver stars, charmed to be the night sky, tall silver heels, dark make-up and silver jewelry, "Whoa, you looks-"

"Stupid?" she asks.

"Beautiful, Fred is luck to have you," I say breathlessly.

"Breath Serg," she says.

"Where is your man?" I ask.

"He's waiting for me, but I can't go down," she says, "I don't feel like myself."

"It's just love," I say, "It's how you know you really feel for another."

"I know, but I never felt like this before," she replies.

We continue this conversation for another several minutes and I take her down to Fred, the look on his face is only summed into one word, given by all in the proximity, "Whoa…"

We walk out and head down to the doorway, "Ryder?" Courtney asks looking at me, "You clean up food."

"Thank you, so do you," I say. She is in a dress similar to Hannah's, but it is earth tones and is charmed to be the woods outside, "Where's the lucky man?"

Daniel walks over and wraps his arms around her waist, "I'm here, doesn't she look amazing?"

We talk for a minute until my date joins us, "Ryder?" I turn and see, no person, but a floating suit.

End Dream

I wake up and check the time, it's a little after midnight, "I have to choose soon, or see who has the balls to ask me themselves, instead of through notes and friends."
