¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ Chapter 5 ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
The following day didn't bring so much for Harry and Ron, especially. It was so that everyone in the Herbologi lesson had eventually found the stupid name of that flesh eating plant. Everyone had turned their heads to the two of them when they announced that they had had some difficulty to find the name. Professor Sprout had just looked at them and then asked the hole class if they had trouble to find the name, but everyone shook their heads, meaning that they hadn't. The Professor then turned around and wrote the name "DOYLE PLANTS IN YOUR HOME" with huge letters on the black board. Harry didn't know what she meant about that and turned to Ron, giving him a questionable look. Ron just shook his head and then turned *his* gaze to the professor who had now her eyes on the two of them.
" That is the name of the book that you were suppose to look at to find the name of the plant, if you two had paid attention on the class when I announced it. This is one of the many times I have notice that you two don't actually pay attention to my class.", she made a pause " I don't know were your mind are, Quidditch, other subjects or of course girls ( at this word both Harry's and Ron's face became as red- pink as the colour of the huge Irisla- plant beside her feet). I don't actually care if it is your so called new "thoughts" or lack of attention that is disturbing my class, but until next time I want an improvement from the two of you ".
At this moment Ron's and Harry's face were dark red of embarrassment. Ron looked as if he was trying to remember the disappearing charm and Harry really wished that the earth would open and swallow him. Every face on the class were on them, not that it wasn't anything new for Harry but for Ron it was, and they didn't look so happy when Professor Sprout announced that she was dragging fifty points from Gryffindor. Hermione raised her hand high up in the air. She almost bent over her desk so that the professor would notice her. Eventually Sprout turned her head from the two boys and to her, giving her a "not-so-gentle-smile" , that meant that she had the word.
" Professor, with all do respect, I don't think that it's their fault not to follow the class. Um...I read a book two days ago that was about wizards and witches that had some difficulty in, well, school, when they came in the age of " long-distance-broom-road". It was indeed a really interesting book, if I may say so. I don't know if you, professor, had read it, but if you haven't I recommend y..."
" Ms Granger get to the point! I haven't got all day."
Hermione became slight pink, and looked quickly down on the desk, while she twisted her fingers several times of embarrassment.
" I'm sorry Professor...I think that the two pupils that you are accusing of disturbing this very interesting class ( at this Neville slowly nodded his head of approval ) are just going through
an unstable period of " physical mature-state". I for sure can tell that these two young men will past these period and will no longer have their minds on other entertainment."
Professor Sprout looked at Hermione who raised her head to meet the professor's eyes. Sprout let out a "hm", and walked over to the three feet tall desk that had five different Doyle plants on the top of it. The desk was not so tall, but since the professor was a rather small woman it seemed to be five feet tall. She placed her dirty left hand over her chin, her eyes still on Hermione.
" So miss Granger, you are saying that Potter and Weasley don't mean to disturb my class? That the reason that they don't do their homework well is because they are going threw an unstable period? You maybe are right or not, but even if they are, I don't have to tolerate it. So as I said before, If you two ( she turned her head to Ron and Harry, pointing her chubby index finger at them) don't behave in the future I will take away more points than just fifty."
The professor turned her head to the hole class now, leaving the case. She grasped her hands
together and took out her wand.
" Today class, we will analyse the Doyle plants behaviour. So if you step back a bit for a second, we can begin. "
Everyone did as the professor said, taking their wands from their desks. Ron had now returned to his normal colour, but kept looking at Hermione, casting her dead looks all the time. Harry had also turned from the tomato- red colour to his normal skin colour, but still much embarrassment as before.
A green yellow light came out from the Professor's wand when everyone were about two feet away from their desks and the next second all the desks in the Greenhouse seven, were gone.
" Now, pair yourselves in five groups and I will come to each group, giving you a Doyle plant each. My advice to you all is to be careful, and if the plants do you any harm, just cast it a dormestis spell and go directly to the hospital wing.
The lesson continued, with not much more. Harry was with Hermione, Ron, Seamus and Neville. Their group had got a blue Doyle plant that tried to bit their fingers all the time, so they didn't get the chance to examine it carefully. When Neville held his hand with
the magnifying glass too close to the plant, it took the chance to bit him on his thumb. He had let out a gasp and ran out from the class with blood pouring out from the wound that had become slight blue. Since that, the rest of the group didn't go near the blue doyle plant that swang dangerously just to grab something to eat. Hermione eventually threw the plant the dormestis spell and after a few seconds the plant was much a sleep, once in awhile snoring.
When the lesson finally was over, Sprout told Harry and Ron to stay. Once the greenhouse was empty, she sat on her chair giving the two of them a piece of paper, not saying anything. With neatly letters it said;
As punishment you will do following; When the day is over you will come to the greenhouse 7 to help me in my work of cleaning and giving the plants water. You will also have detention in one hour the following four days of this week.
All that Harry could say was that Ron was not so happy about this, since his eyes gave the impression that he was in hell. Neither did Harry feel so good when he realised that he had
to take care of the monstrous plants in the end of the day. He gave back the paper to the professor, with his head down.
" You may go now, and I hope to see you at evening.", she nodded and Harry and Ron walked away, much to depressed to say anything. Hermione was standing outside the greenhouse with her arms crossed, she looked at them, first at Ron and then at Harry.
" So, how did it go? What did she say?", she asked while walking beside them to their next class " Defence against Dark Arts".
" She is a real pain in the ass, If I may say so!", Ron muttered not looking at Hermione's choked face.
" Well she is now ! I mean what's her problem, she didn't used to be like that. She used to be really nice before!" Ron looked at Harry and he nodded. It was true that Professor Sprout hadn't been like that before, especially embarrassing them like that.
" Well, Ron, she was right. If you two had done like I'd said yesterday, you wouldn't have gone threw this. Remember this the next time.", Hermione said while turning her head and smiling at McGonagall when she saw her. Ron didn't answer her, instead he stopped walking and finally burst out.
" I cant believe you that you said that crap to the professor and especially the hole class about us being in an unstable period of physical...something! You embarrassed us even more!
" Well for your information I was just helping you! I thought that she would believe me and not take away fifty points just because of you two! For your information I'm a Gryffindor too!", Hermione was red of anger and looked as if she was about to beat Ron down if he said another word.
" Hey, Ron she is right. Let it go.", Harry said looking from Hermione to Ron. Several faces looked at the three of them, well two of them since it was most Hermione and Ron that were loudly discussing this outside the great hall.
" So, you are in her side?"
" There is no side, Ron" , Harry looked around, luckily there were no teachers around. Ron became silence, defeated in a way.
"Sorry", he muttered to Hermione and she said the same thing, but more like a whisper. She looked at him with teary eyes, but then changed her gaze at Harry. He was not looking at them at all, he hadn't even heard their two whispering "sorry". He didn't even see that there
were more like twenty people in the hall that were walking out, he was just looking at a group of Ravenclaw girls in the corner of the hall. In the middle of that group was a girl with long black hair and very cute face, and that girl wasn't including in her friends babbling and giggling, her gaze was instead on a special person. And his gaze was also on her. Eventually the large group of girls started to walk away, but his steady gaze was still on her as she walked. Their footsteps echoed away and so did their voices. But Harry was still looking at the large door they walked out from.
" I think that I know why you don't keep attention on Professor Sprout's class, Harry.", Hermione said with a slight smile on her lips, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. Harry turned his gaze at her, looking at her.
" What do you mean?"
" Nothing.", she made a small pause and started to walk away, but after a few steps she turned to them "hey, hurry up we have a lesson in two minutes".
Both Harry and Ron sighed, following her out from the now empty hall.
