Ch. 8- Potions Class- p
December was over and the new term had begun. Bailee sat on her window sill and watched the snow fall down from the sky. p
"Come on, we're going to be late for Potions class." Alec told Bailee. p
She snapped out of her daydream and slowly stood up. Potions class was the class that she dreaded the most. She heaved a sigh and picked up her books. Professor Snape had always had it out for Bailee and she knew it was because of his past history with her father and grandfather. p
She slowly followed behind Alec towards the dungeon. p
"Take your seats; there will be no funny business. Today we are conducting a thinking potion. This will not be an easy task; it will take your undivided attention." Professor Snape brushed back his greasy black hair and narrowed his eyes at the Gryffindor students. p
Bailee rolled her eyes and sat down next to Alec while Snape handed out a list of ingredients. p
"If you get the wolfs bane I will get the lizards tongue." Alec stated. p
Bailee nodded and stood up, she walked to the back of the class room where Snape kept the jars of wolfs bane. Alec went to the front and stood in line to receive his lizards tongue. p
Rooney grinned widely when he noticed the unguarded caldron at Bailee's table. He walked past Alec and picked off one of the many bat wings off of Snape's storage shelf. Rooney knew that it was an opportunity he couldn't refuse. He walked to the cauldron and nonchalantly dropped the bat wing, before dashing to his seat. p
Bailee sat down and dropped the wolfs bane into the cauldron, not noticing that it had changed to a dark purple colour. p
"I got the lizards tongue!" Alec announced. p
He sat down beside Bailee and put the tongue in the cauldron. p
"There!" p
Bailee smiled and waited for further directions from her teacher. Rooney was grinning maliciously from behind them, leaning back in his chair. p
"Now pour half a glass for your partner and yourself." Snape commanded. p
Bailee took a wooden spoon and poured the liquid goo into two separate glasses. p
"Hopefully your potions are right, now take a sip and stare directly at your partner. If you did what you were suppose to, you will begin to hear your partner's thoughts." p
"Well, bottom's up!" Alec stated and took a sip. p
Bailee hesitated waiting for Alec's reaction. p
"Any day now Miss Potter." Snape snarled walking to her desk. p
Bailee sighed and took a sip from her glass. She looked a Alec, but nothing happened. p
"Well…maybe it takes awhile…" She spoke glancing around the classroom. p
"Oh Rhett! You are so sick!" Chutney chuckled loudly from behind Bailee. She watched her cousin playfully slap Rhett's shoulder. Bailee let out a tiny giggle. p
Bailee turned back and looked at Alec and realized that his eyes had changed to a bright glowing green. p
"Alec?" p
"I saw that!" He barked loudly. p
"You saw what?" Bailee inquired folding her arms. Her eyes flashed a bright red colour. p
"I saw how you looked at Rhett!" p
"What? I wasn't looking at him any special way!" p
"Don't lie to me Potter!" Alec roared causing the entire classroom to stop what they were doing and stared at Alec and Bailee. p
"How dare you accuse me like that!" Bailee shrieked. p
Professor Snape hovered over them and snarled, "It seems that these two have failed their assignment." p
Snape picked up one of the glasses and took a sniff then he let out a hoot. "You two have created a jealousy potion!" p
"What?" Bailee exclaimed. p
Rooney let out a loud laughed and fell back in his chair crashing to the floor. p
"This is a very dangerous potion; I have to alert Dumbledore straight away. Class is dismissed except for Mr. Malfoy and Miss Potter." p
The class cheered and excitedly left the dungeon. A few Hufflepuffs stopped and thanked Bailee and Alec before they left. p
"You two stay here while I fetch the headmaster." Professor Snape told them in an amused tone. p
He laughed the classroom laughing loudly. p
"This is your entire fault!" Bailee yelled at Alec. p
"No this is your fault! If you weren't making goo-goo eyes at Rhett none of this would have happened!" p
"I wasn't making goo-goo eyes you slimy git!" p
Alec stood up furiously, "you aren't allowed to look at him ever again!" p
Bailee got up and faced him, "fine then you aren't allowed to look at other girls!" p
"Don't tell me what to do!" p
"Listen here Malfoy-" p
"Oh dear…" Dumbledore stated entering the dungeon. p
By this time there was a huge red hand print on Alec's cheek and purple goo all over the floor. p
"Headmaster, I have created a potion to get rid of the jealousy but it won't work for another twenty four hours. Until then they have to be under surveillance." Snape told Dumbledore. p
"I agree…let's take them to the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey can watch over them for the night." Dumbledore responded. p
Snape grabbed a bottle of counter potion and led the students out of the dungeon. Slowly, they walked upstairs towards the hospital wing. p
"Boy did you two get yourselves into a bit of a mess." Snape laughed. p
They entered the hospital wing and Snape forced them to each drink a glass of yellow goo. p
"That looks like snot." Alec stated then stared at Bailee's glass, "hey she has more than me!" p
"They are both equal! Now drink!" Snape barked. p
Slowly they drank the counter potion and winced from the awful taste. The bright colour in their eyes began to fade away, but not entirely. p
"Now, you two are to stay here the night and do whatever Madam Pomfrey tells you." Snape told them. p
He was grinning as he left the room. Bailee rolled her eyes and plopped down on one of the empty beds. p
"Hey! I wanted that bed! It's not fair, who said you could get that bed?" Alec inquired marching towards Bailee. He leaned down and violently pulled her off the bed. p
"It was mine first!" Bailee shouted as Alec sat on the bed. p
"Come now children! All the beds are the same!" Madam Pomfrey shouted taking Bailee by the arm. She pulled Bailee to a bed on the opposite side of the room and drew a curtain around the bed. p
Then she drew a curtain around Alec's bed. "Now I don't want to hear a peep from either of you! I will be back shortly with your dinner." p
The night passed slowly and it wasn't until the morning that the potion wore off. At least in Alec's case… p
*A/N* Sorry this chapter was sort of crappy! It started off as a good idea but I couldn't get it out on paper. Anyhow, I have Forbidden all written out on paper, it's just a matter of typing and uploading it! I hope you enjoy it so far! *glamrockstar*
