"Today class we will start the lesson with this particular famous and dangerous potion, any idea on what it might be?" Professor Slughorn asked the class of Slytherin and Gryffindor sixth years students. It was the first potion class of the year and with Slughorn as their teacher instead of Snape.

Harry standing beside of Hermione, teasingly signed to her to go on. Hermione leaned slightly forward and analysed the potion, quickly recognising the 'Mother-of-pearl sheen'. However before she could raise her hand Professor Slughorn asked Malfoy.

"Sorry Professor, I don't know" He glared at the professor but Slughorn didn't seem moved by it one bit instead he asked him to come closer.

"Don't be shy boy take a whiff of it and tell us what you smell" Malfoy leaned down and smelled the potion before opening his mouth. Harry poked Hermione's side and whispered quietly so only she could hear "What potion is it?" Just as she was about to answer him, Malfoy interrupted her.

"I smell… fresh parchments… toothpaste, a hint of vanilla and…" He froze and so did Hermione. Harry looked at Malfoy suspiciously. His description seemed somehow familiar to Harry but he didn't know from where.

"I.. I can't really identify this smell Professor" Slughorn looked like he had expected him to say something like that.

"Well that is something that happens when smelling this potion, a scent we cannot identify… yet" He squinted his eyes at Malfoy, "Maybe you could try to think about it, is it from a special person or…"

"It smells like…" He stopped there and casted a quick glance at Hermione, nobody else noticed but Harry did. He leaned toward Hermione and sent her a questioning look. She quickly sent him a 'Shut up look'. Harry who couldn't seem to resist, leaned even more toward Hermione and took a quick sniff of her hair before Hermione smacked him one on the shoulder.

That small sniff was enough for Harry, Malfoy's description matched completely and he could feel his eyes becoming large. Bloody hell why would Malfoy smell Hermione…

"Now class or should I say Mr. Malfoy any idea on what it might be" The whole class seemed to look at Malfoy, waiting.

"Amortentia sir" Malfoy answered suddenly looking even more sickly than he did before.

"Correct! Mr. Malfoy, Correct! 10 points to Slytherin now off you go" Malfoy slowly walked back toward the mass of students but not before glancing toward Hermione.

Hermione looked right back at him, eyes wide indicating that she indeed knew. Harry straightened his back standing behind Hermione treathingly. Malfoy sneered at him and Hermione before turning toward his friends. Slughorn started instructing them on making a potion but neither Harry or Hermione listened both too deep in thoughts.

Ron looked helpless trying to make the potion without Harry or Hermione. He managed to make 'something' before Seamus brewing beside of him finally exploded something.

"Oh dear…" Slughorn looked around at the class before deciding that it was enough for today.

"Now all of you I want you to write six inches about the use of…" Harry, Hermione and Ron were already heading out of class when Harry thought of something to send Ron away. Harry waited till everybody was gone or so he thought before looking at Hermione.

"Is it really true… Bloody Malfoy has a crush on you" Hermione seemed panicked at this and quickly hushed him.

"Careful you idiot someone might hear you"

"Nobody is here Her-" Suddenly out of nowhere Malfoy appeared and grabbed Harry smashing him at the wall.

"Now listen Potter… One word about this stupid... something… and even Dumbledore-" He was quickly interrupted by Hermione pulling him away of Harry.

"Stop it!" She glared at him and he glared right back at her, before casting quick glances at both of them.

"This doesn't change anything." He walked away and left them alone.

They looked at each other unsure how to react. They silently decided to let it be for now and maybe- maybe not tell Ron.
