Back to Normal

The next few days in Potions, Snape was particularly mean to Danielle. If she didn't take neat enough notes he took points. If she tried to help one of her friends, more points. By the end of the week, with only two potions classes she alone had lost 200 points from Snape.

Of course, she made up for it in all her other classes. When she turned in some of her independent study work, Professor Flitwick was so impressed that she had done all of this without instruction that he gave her 150 points.

Divination was as stupid as always. This class consisted of nothing other than Professor Trelawney predicting Harry death. Danielle couldn't predict the future at will, but she did have dreams all the time telling her what to expect.

Sometimes the dreams where something that was going to happen the next day and sometimes they wouldn't happen for a long time, These dreams were all warnings, like the image of Malfoy writing a letter that appeared to be from the dark lord. The next day she would get the letter, but knew it was really from Malfoy.

Danielle loved learning new ways to see the future, but all they ever did in class was predict death. If turned in a paper that said, "I'm going to fall in love." Professor Trelawney would give you a failing grade.

Transfiguration was one of Danielle's favorite classes. Not only was the idea of turning things into something else fascinating, it was one class where Danielle and Hermione could hang out and be girlfriends.

Danielle pointed her wand at rock in front of her and suddenly if was a ginger colored tabby cat. Hermione did the same but here turned into a white dove.

"So how is arithmancy?" Danielle asked Hermione since they were done with everything they had to do for the day in transfiguration.

"Oh, it is only of my favorite classes, I've always loved that kind of stuff." Hermione explained. "How is healing?"

Danielle smiled widely. "Well, you know how much I like this class. I like healing ten times more." Danielle said and Hermione smiled.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, since the class is so small Madam Pomfrey is offered to let us help in the hospital wing. Get some hands on experience." Danielle said excitedly.

The two girls screamed as Neville's rock next to them blew up. Hermione's hand and the side of Danielle's face got burned in the explosion.

"You three," Profess McGonagall said pointed to Hermione, Danielle, and Neville, "Go to the hospital wing immediately." The three got up and left.

"Madam Pomfrey?" Danielle said as they walked in. "Oh no," Madam Pomfrey said seeing the three students. "What did we blow up this time Mr. Longbottom?" Neville blushed.

Madam Pomfrey healed Danielle's face and said, "Now Danielle, since you are in Healing would you like to treat your friend while I treat Mr. Longbottom here?" Danielle nodded and smiled at Hermione.

Hermione held out her hand with a nervous smile. Danielle rubbed some cool cream on it. The pain was still there, but not nearly as bad. Danielle said something that Hermione didn't catch and suddenly the cream was gone along with the burn and any pain that still remained after the cream had been applied.

"Neat." Hermione said as she touched her hand where it had been burned.

"Can I help you over here Madam Pomfrey?" Danielle asked heading over to Neville.

"Will you continue to heal his burns while I go get something from the back room?" Madam Pomfrey said and Danielle took over.

Neville looked at her nervously. "Don't worry Neville, she may only be a student, but she did a good job with me." Hermione said to comfort him.

Soon Neville was completely healed and good as new. Danielle walked off to find Madam Pomfrey in her office.

"Are you finished already, Dear?" Madam Pomfrey said getting up from her desk.

"You didn't really need to get something did you?" Danielle asked and Madam Pomfrey shook her head.

"Thank you." Danielle said and walked out with Hermione, leaving Neville with Madam Pomfrey to make sure Danielle had done an acceptable job.

Classes continued as normal, well as normal as anything was at Hogwarts. Danielle and Ron were spending a lot of more time together just the two of them. Harry was doing much better about not pulling them apart, but they still felt that out of respect, they should go somewhere else.

Even when it was cold, their favorite place to go was a big rock next to the lake. They went there last year also, when Danielle had gotten a letter from her old friend Tim.

"I don't know how I lived without you." Ron said as he held her in his arms as the sun set.

The snow was all around them, but it only made them get closer. Suddenly the light powdery snow started to fall again. Danielle looked up and let it fall unto her face. She loved rain and snow, and would always go stand it in until someone made her come in.

Danielle stuck out her tongue and caught a big snowflake on it. Ron laughed and did the same.

Danielle laughed and made a snowball behind her back. Ron saw her out of the corner of his eye. "And just what do you think you are going to do this that?" He said smiling.

Danielle smiled brightly in the red glow from the setting sun. "This." She said calmly. She put the snowball down the back of his shirt and took off running.

"I don't think so." Ron yelled as he ran after her. He caught her easily and they both toppled over the foot and a half deep snow. Danielle screamed as she was suddenly in the cold snow.

Ron smiled and said; "Now we're even." Danielle laughed as he helped her to her feet and they walked back into the castle. They left wet footprints in the front hall.

Flitch was coming; they heard him talking to Mrs. Norris. They looked around at the messy floor and their eyes filled with terror. Danielle was good at thinking on her feet and turning the both invisible. Danielle grabbed Ron's hand so they would know where the other was.

"Hurry wipe your feet on the carpet and let's get out of here." Danielle whispered. Ron nodded, not daring to say anything, but since he was invisible Danielle didn't see him. They ran back to Gryffindor tower. When they were a safe distance away from flitch Danielle took off the invisibility charm.

"Wow, that was close." Ron said smiling. Danielle just laced her fingers with his and the walked quickly to the fat lady.

Harry and Hermione were still in the common room. "Why are you both sopping wet?" Hermione asked when they walked in.

"Danielle here, decided to put a snowball down my back." Ron said with a mock glare at Danielle.

"Yes and Ron here, retaliated by knocking me down into the 18 inches of snow." Danielle said returning his glare.

"Of course Danielle just had to pull me down with her." Ron said and all four of them laughed.

"Come on, it's late." Hermione said walking over to the stairs. Danielle followed her. Harry and Ron stayed down in the common room for a while longer, helping each other with a history of magic essay.
