BraveSpiritGryffindor, could you please e-mail me after you read this chapter? I want to discuss a new chapter with you! Thanks!

Thanks to all my other reviewers! You guys make me feel so special! Except for the ones that think that this story is a Mary Sue!

Anyway, here's to Chapter 10!

Chapter Ten: Charms, Transfiguration, and Confrontations

Arissa

Flying was so cool! I'll never feel like that again. Simone and I didn't get into trouble for flying higher than we were supposed to. I guess Dad had something to do with that.

Anyway, this morning, we have Transfiguration and Charms. I think we have Herbology, too, but I'm not sure. I'll just follow Simone like I always do.

We also had our first History of Magic lesson yesterday. It was so boring! I actually fell asleep. I never fall asleep in class! Dad says Professor Binns was there when he was in school. He thinks the ghost should just go away. I don't blame him!

Simone and I were alone at breakfast when Bianca and Mercury flew in with letters for us. Simone received a letter from Dad.

Dear Simone,

I received your owl about Professor Snape. All will be taken care of.

Just behave yourself and try not to aggravate him anymore.

Love, Dad

I automatically assumed that my letter was from Dad as well until I noticed the handwriting.

"What is it?" Simone asked.

"I don't know," I answered. "I don't recognize the handwriting."

"Someone has a crush on you!"

I shook my head. "It can't be that."

"Well open it and find out!"

The letter was not from our parents.

It was from Snape. This can't be good.

Dear Miss Malfoy,

During your free hour, there is to be a meeting in my office. No excuses.

I request that your sister attends this meeting as well.

Professor S. Snape

"Oh my God! What did we do?"

"The only thing I did was snap at him. You didn't do anything. I have no idea why you're being dragged into it!"

"Dad said that all would be taken of…"she trailed off. "You don't think Dad's coming here, do you?"

"If that happens, we're dead!"

"Hey, Arissa! Hey, Simone!"

I looked up, only to see Landon. Justin was right behind him.

"Hi, boys. Sit down." They sat down across from us.

"Is it true what they're saying around school?" Landon asked in a low voice. "Did you really stand up to Snape, Arissa?"

I blushed. "Yes, it's true. I did."

"And you survived?" Justin asked.

"Don't be so sure about that, Justin," Simone said. "We have a meeting with him after Transfiguration."

"That's not good!" Landon said.

"We know!" we exclaimed together.

"But, Simone, you didn't do anything!" Justin exclaimed. "You haven't been in big trouble ever since you accidentally dyed Aunt Lavender's hair purple!"

We laughed at that memory. "Hey, Dad left his wand lying around the house where I could get it!"

Lisa, Jordan, and Christina entered and sat near us.

"What happened?" Lisa asked.

"Simone and Arissa have a meeting with Snape during their free hour," Justin told them, grabbing a piece of toast.

"Man, and I thought Potions was bad enough," Jordan said. "Just being in a room with him scares me!"

"I know the feeling," Christina added, pouring herself a goblet of pumpkin juice.

"Well, girls, we have Defense Against the Dark Arts in five minutes," Landon said. "We'll tell you about Professor Lynch in the Common Room."

The boys got up and left. "So, what do we have first today?" Jordan asked.

"Charms, then Transfiguration, free hour, then Herbology," Simone answered. "We also have Defense Against the Dark Arts after lunch."

The bell rang like it always does, giving us about ten minutes to get to Charms.

Professor Flitwick is actually a pretty cool teacher. He may be tiny, but the man can keep your attention. He treats all students as equals, not like Professor Snape.

Anyway, after we started the swish-and-flick motion with our wands, we learned how to levitate feathers. I partnered up with Christina, Jordan paired up with Lisa, and Simone paired up with Amanda Moran, one of the Hufflepuffs. We all got our feathers up at the same time. Professor Flitwick almost fell off his desk when we did that! No one exploded, thank goodness!

After Charms, we walked together to Transfiguration. Professor McGonagall might be the Head of Gryffindor House, but she is the strictest with us. She doesn't let her students fail, though. Jordan earned ten points for Gryffindor when she turned her match into a silver needle. I guess Jordan will be an Animagus. That would be so cool!

"You are dismissed," Professor McGonagall said after about five of us finally turned our matches into needles, Simone and I included.

"We will meet you in the Great Hall for lunch," Lisa said.  

"Alright," we said together.

After they left for the library, I turned to Simone, my face pale.

"It's time to face the music," I said sadly.

We walked down to the dungeons to Professor Snape's office silently. We never thought we would hear someone else besides him in there.

"I don't care, Professor Snape!" a male voice yelled. "You actually think that my daughters wouldn't snap at you after you said that about their mother?"

"First of all, Mr. Malfoy," he said. Simone and I looked at each other. Dad was here! We're in deep trouble now.

"It was only the younger one."

My face must have turned scarlet like that night Lucius came to our house. Simone grabbed me by the arm. "Arissa, it isn't worth getting expelled over a dumb teacher!"

I entered his office, a bewildered Simone behind me.

"You have no right calling me that!" I screamed. "You don't know me!"

"Do you see what I mean, Draco?" Snape said with a sneer on his face. "She is doing it again."

"You aggravated her! My father said almost the same thing to her right before she left for Hogwarts, and she screamed at him, too!"

"Lucius came to your house? After he kicked you out?"

"Yes, Father came to the house. He insulted my children even then."

Snape was at a loss for words.

"As of right now, if you ever insult me or my children again, I will take them out and send them to Beauxbatons!"

"Very well, Draco." They shook hands and Dad lead us out of Snape's office.

"I don't blame you for what you said to Professor Snape, Arissa, but next time, hold your tongue. I will not be around next time to bail you out. Simone, the same goes for you."

We nodded and he hugged us. "I'd better get back. Your mother is worried about you." With that, he left.

"Well, Simone, at least we didn't get a detention!"

(A/N) My hands hurt from writing that chapter! Damn Snape! Ah, well, you know the drill. Review!
