Disaster

Chrisoffolis was very busy. He had a good plan. He had some protection from Claudia, and had he little person gone for sure. Now he only needed the lacewings.

Claudia woke up. She smelt something. It was like perfume, but even better smelling. Then the most beautiful picture came into her mind. It was of Draco Malfoy. "I must go find Draco, my love!" she said to herself. Chrisoffolis had put a love potion on her.

The way the potion worked, was that Claudia would be in love with Malfoy, and Malfoy would be in love with her (This made Malfoy even MORE unpopular).

Ron was waiting in the Great hall for Claudia.

"Where is she?" he thought. Then he saw something he never thought he would EVER see. Claudia and Malfoy were walking into the great hall, hand and hand. Claudia even sat down at the Slytherin table. Harry and Hermione just stared at them. Parvati however, looked VERY happy. Ron was beside himself. He couldn't eat. He skipped all his classes that day.

"Ah, my plan is perfect!" said Chrisoffolis. "I have that little jerk out of the way, and when Claudia recovers, she will be as weak as ever!"

It had been a couple days, and Claudia woke up feeling very sick.

"Mye? Are you there? I feel horrible."

"You should. I can't believe you. I thought I liked you. I was wrong. I have to go meet Harry. Bye."

"MYE! WAIT! What's wrong? I don't remember anything! I don't know what has happened. The last thing I remember was something that smelled like perfume, and then I passed out. I don't know what happened."

"Wait, back up. You said that it smelled like perfume, and that's what Ron said he remembered until you woke him up. You've been given a love potion! Oh Claud, I'm SO sorry I accused you of acting like that one you free will." She went over to Claudia and hugged her. "You do forgive me, don't you?"

"Of course I do! Now, I need to talk to Professor McGonagall. I have a feeling this has to do with Chrisoffolis. See you soon!"

Claudia sat down in the professor's office. "Professor, something happened. I think I've been given a love potion. I mean, I'm over it now, but I don't know why somebody did that. It seems like somebody is trying to make Ron and me not like each other."

"Oh no," the Professor whispered. She took a small bag out of her pocket. It was filed with a powder. She threw some into the fire, and yelled "Weasley! To my office please!"

Then Claudia heard Ron's voice. "Coming Professor!"

Claudia waited, and then Ron appeared at the doorway. When he saw Claudia he looked away. Claudia's eyes filled with tears.

"You'd better sit down," said Professor McGonagall. "Something has happened. I need you to listen. This has to do with you Weasley. You are very powerful. When you and Claudia were together, it made her stronger. By liking her, you put a VERY powerful blocking spell on her. She is already a very powerful witch, but with you, she is much more powerful.

"Professor, that might've worked, but Claudia and I are no longer together," said Ron looking at the floor. Tears trickled down Claudia's face.

"No, that's not true. I need to finish this story. Anyway, Chrisoffolis knows about this power, so he needed to get you away from her. He did it, by sending a dream into Parvati's head and telling her to make the potion. The other way was by giving Claudia and Mr. Malfoy a love potion.

"You mean, Claudia didn't really like Malfoy?"

"No, I didn't. It was all fake," said Claudia. She was mad now. Ron flashed her a smile, but she did not smile back.

"Well, you two better go back to the common room. Have a good-night"

"Good-night" they both said. When they into the hallway Ron said

"I'm sorry for being mean to you."

"No. That doesn't work. The whole time you were in love with Parvati I didn't give up. I had faith. But not you. You don't care. I guess I wasn't important to you. I wasted a lot of power in that stupid song. You weren't worth it. Do you REALLY think that I would do that song and then the next day fall in love with someone else? Did you even bother to look at me? Did you ever try to find out what happened? NO, you didn't. I did. I went to all that trouble to sing a song that wasn't even appreciated. I'm not ready just to forget what you said in there. Well one thing you said is true. We are not together. And we won't be, unless you show me that I am important to you."

"But you are important to me Claud!"

"If I was important to you, you would show it. And tomorrow, do me a favor, and don't try to suck up to me. You know, I thought that you were different. Now I know you're self-centered and you don't even care about me. I hope you find another girlfriend that suites you. Maybe that BarbieĀ® Parvati! She's PERFECT for you. See you 'round." And with that, she walked away.
