Potions class the next day was anything but calm. Snape, in his sadistic manner, had paired up students that he knew hated each other. Or in one case, *thought* they hated each other.

Harry and Draco were quite content with being partners, and didn't fight once. The other students, and Professor Snape, had stared in surprise at this at first. But as class wore on, they almost forgot about the two boys. This was probably because they were too busy arguing, insulting, or just plain ignoring their own partners.

The loudest of all were Kaleb and Star. Not a big surprise. Star seemed to have forgotten that she had worked with Kaleb at one point in order to get her best friend and Harry together, and had *almost* been like a friend to her. She was back to her normal, hostile self, and couldn't seem to stand being in the same room with the other girl. Kaleb, on the other hand, almost seemed amused with the situation. Sure, she yelled back whenever Star argued with her over one thing or another. But one with a trained eye could tell that she was almost enjoying it for some reason.

The ones that noticed were of course, Harry and Draco.

"Told you Kaleb liked her," Harry grinned, keeping his voice low enough so that no one but Draco would hear him.

The Slytherin smirked, "I see what you mean. Just look at them."

At the moment, the two girls were arguing over their potion. Star insisted that Kaleb added the wrong ingredient, while the Gryffindor claimed she followed the directions perfectly.

"Don't *make* me hug you," Kaleb threatened.

"Do and regret it!" Star spat back.

"What're you going to do? Hex me?"

"Wouldn't *you* like to know!"

"Star, would you just--"

"No."

"All I'm saying is if you--"

"No."

"Would you--"

"No!"

"Stop cutting me off!"

"Only if you shut up!"

"You first!"

"*You* first!"

"You!"

"*You*!"

Snape, finally having enough, walked over to the arguing students, "if you two are *quite* finished, perhaps you'd like to get back to your potion and be quiet!"

The two girls reluctantly did as the professor asked, plopping down in their seats. Star huffed, crossing her arms and looking away. Kaleb rolled her eyes, resting her chin on her hands with her elbows on the table. She looked over at Draco and Harry, who were grinning knowingly at her. She stuck her tongue out at them.

Draco blew a raspberry at her, which she happily returned.

Snape turned around to glare at them, and they stuck their tongues back in their mouths.

Harry chuckled to himself. This was turning out to be very entertaining, indeed. No wonder Kaleb and Star had taken such a liking to getting him and Draco together. Although, this new plan would be a lot easier if they could get Star to act decently towards Kaleb again, like she had been more or less when she was working with the other girl during their "Operation Matchmaker" scheme.



AN: Oh what will the boys do about this situation? Tune in tomorrow! We've decided to give out a chapter a day because we're cruel and greedy ^_^ Kidding, kidding. but we will be adding a chapter a day :)
