1 Potions isn't the Reason

1.1 Part 3

A/N: I told ya it would be out before Monday! Anyways in this chapter we are going to be introduced to a new and different Snape. Hmmmmmmmmmmm... Something will happen in this chapter but not as major as other future stuff. Well without further adue, "All Games are Fun, Unless You Lose.""

Disclaimer: I own nothing, zilch, zip nada! All I own is a few of the potions (except the congeniality concoction, disclaimer in the story) and Ms. Lenoylds. J.K. owns the characters, settings, houses, and practically everything else but the plot so there!

I was walking past the Gryffindor table to make it to the teachers' section. I then saw Hermione, I mean Ms. Granger grab my letter and parcel. "Hermione you've been getting quite a lot of bloody mail from Snape. I mean pretty soon he's going to let you skip class! Look he gave you a damn book! And it's for people who graduated Hogwarts!" I heard Mr. Weasley being a bit rude to Ms. Granger. I could just go right up there and take points away because of his violent behavior but what's the point? Ms. Granger and Mr. Weasley are both in the same house.

"For your information, Snape has decided to let me learn more advanced potions because of what I did the other night! Also err. Snape said that err... I only had to come on Fridays for Potions class." Harry and Ron both dropped their bags and with odd-looking faces. I gave a little smirk.

"What the hell has he done that for?" Harry asked in a half and half voice.

"Well I turned a boil-removing potion into a reversing potion! He thought that I was beyond the rest of the class in the subject so now he's teaching me as a seventh year!" With that I saw Hermione. Damn it! That was my second time doing that! What the bloody hell is going on with me? My next class was going to be needing a bit of preparation. I went to the classroom to have the worst come by.

I saw the Gryffindors and the Slytherins come along to get ready for the class. They finally entered the classroom. I think they were a bit surprised to see that their cauldrons were not set up ready to be brewed but just two medium-sized cauldrons in front of the whole class. "Class take your seats right now! Today's lesson is going to be an interesting one. I have decided that today I will introduce turning a mistake into a potion that is more resourceful and needed more than the other. I have selected two students to compete against each other to do this advanced task. Mr. Malfoy please come to the cauldron that is front of your house." Draco walked up non-chalently in front of the cauldron and looked like nothing big was going to happen. "Ms. Granger please come to the cauldron in front of your house." Hermione, damnit! Not again. Just forget it. Hermione's her name. Not Granger. That's only part of it. Hermione walked up and flipped her bushy beautiful hair and came down partially shaky and the other part was confident.

"You're going down Mudblood." I heard Draco mutter to Hermione. I wanted to take all of the points that Slytherin had but then I remembered I had a reputation to save. I held back my anger and continued with my directions.

"These two students will be given two different potions to make at the beginning and then they will both have to make the same potion at the end. Whoever's potion is the strongest or more correct is the winner and would win their house 20 points and the house that loses will have 20 points taken away." The Slytherins looked as if they already won this thing but the Gryffindors just stood there biting their lips. "Ms. Granger will be making the Acne-Remover Remedy and Mr. Malfoy will be making the Congeniality Concoction (A/N: I don't own the Congeniality Concoction. The author of "Draco, Flipside" made this up. I DON'T OWN IT!). In the end they will both have an English-Translator Potion. It will be tested on Mr. Longbottom's toad and Ms. Lenoyld's cat (A/N: I WON HER! Lenoyld's belongs to me so screw you! LoL! Ummmmmm. I think I overreacted a bit). On the count of three they will begin. One, Two, Three." Ms. Granger already added in the first two ingredients since she knew the potion by heart and Mr. Malfoy was still looking it up in his book.

45 minutes later

"Both potions are an apple red so they have both succeeded on the first part. Now please bring down the toad and cat." Ms. Lenoylds and Mr. Longbottom came down with a bit of nervous looks. I took a sample of each potion and served it to the animals. The cat was talking gibberish and the toad was starting to talk fluently in English, ("Where am I? Where's the bloody boy? I'm supposed to be in his bloody hell of a bag sweating a hurricane!") "I am sorry to announce that Slytherin loses 20 points and," I sighed to make it look like I was very displeased, "Gryffindor gains 20 points." The whole Gryffindor side cheered and was looking at the toad talking about how he was sent flying across the room when the fan at Longbottom's house got him.

"Please go on to your common rooms. No reason to hang out here. The day is done." I shooed both the cheering Gryffindors and the depressed Slytherins away that was ranting on Draco. Hermione was the only one left who was bottling her potion. "I told you to go to your common room Ms. Granger."

"I know Professor, I just want to bottle up this potion so I can experiment with it later." I went back to my desk and watched her. I was fiddling around with my quill and started marking my desk. She finally left. I took out a piece of parchment and my quill and began to write a letter to Ms. Granger for her to be aloud to go to her tutoring session. When I looked down to write the slip I finally noticed what I was doing with my quill and desk. I carved something in it.

HG

It's official. I am in the process with my least favorite emotion. I thought I would never be in contact with it again but I have. I'm in love. Again.



A/N: I told you something would happen but not that big! I know a little carving in the desk isn't that much but I mean a professor doing it is a bit.. well bigger. Most stories have the student falling in love with the teacher first (You know how little boys fall in love with the subsitute super-model-looking teacher, LoL). Well I'm having teacher falling in love with the student! Spoilers at the bottom, THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL REVIEWS I GOT FROM YOU GUYS!
