As Harry was walking into Potions class later that evening, he felt his bag rip and the contents fall out. Sighing, he bent down to repair his bag and retrieve his belongings. Once he had done so, he looked up to see Draco Malfoy, and his two cronies, Crabbe and Goyle, laughing at him. Harry, realizing that it was Draco that magically ripped his bag, grabbed out his wand and was aboout to get back at him when he heard a quiet, hard voice from behind.
"Real mature Malfoy, real mature." It was Sam Snape, and she obviously hadn't seen Harry take out his wand in retort. He quickly stuffed it back inside his robes and turned to look at her. She was glaring at Malfoy, who had an upset expression on his face. Harry watched as Malfoy lowered his head in shame and continued into the Potions room. When the blonde boy disapeared, Sam managed a smile for Harry.
"Sorry bout that." she said to him, helping him pick up the last of his things.
"Um, thanks...." Harry started, "but if your father catches you helping ME, you'll be in a lot of trouble." As if on cue, Snape turned the corner and spotted Sam standing infront of the bent over Potter. He smiled at his daughter, and both Sam and Harry realized that Snape thought Sam had ripped Harry's bag. Snape made his way into his classroom, and before following behind him, Harry smirked at Sam, mouthing "thanks."
