(Back in Charlotte's Room)

Holly continued her search of Charlotte's things and ended up locating the diary in question within the confines of Charlotte's School bag. Holly opened the diary to the last entry dated 2 days ago, quickly reading the entry it proved to be of no use towards the matter of Charlottes behaviour and with a sigh closed the diary and returned it to its place. This wasn't the first time that Holly had read Charlottes diary as it proved to be way more exciting and thrilling than any magazine or novel, and as far as she could tell charlotte was still none the wiser.

(In the common room)

Charlotte walked into the common room and at once spotted the figure of her good friend Ruby Plum, a good-looking, sweet natured 7th year. Charlotte waved to her friend and was waved over to join her. Upon making herself comfortable the girls began to talk and giggle more so freely than Charlotte could ever do with Holly. Charlotte told Ruby about the days events and Ruby listened intently never interrupting until charlotte finished.

Ruby turned towards charlotte and smiled "You know I knew this would happen, everybody wanted to interfere but I told them you guys would get together on your own in your own ways and I was right" ruby said. "What are you on about, wait you thought that this would happen". Asked Charlotte.

"Of course we did, we could tell there was something between you, emotionally or just sexually but something nonetheless and that it would be only a matter of time before you both realised it for yourselves" Ruby replied.

Ruby looked at her watch and told charlotte that it was 6.10 and should get going if she was going to get to detention on time. Charlotte voiced to ruby that Draco will be late too if he didn't go know too. Ruby sent charlotte off to Snape and went to inform Draco herself.

(Back in normal -The male dorms)

Draco opened his mouth to reply to the question poised before him, how the hell do you answer a question like that Draco thought when Ruby charlotte's friend came hurrying inside the room. Turning towards Draco ruby said "Draco you better go, its 6.12 you better hurry or your gonna be late, charlotte has just left and sent me to fetch you" Draco thanked ruby for reminding him, said goodbye to his mates and sent off at a quick jog out of the common room and down towards potions classroom for Snape's detention.

Charlotte stopped jogging as she approached Snape's door and slowly walked to the door ready to knock when she heard hurried footsteps behind her, turning she saw draco jogging down the hallway towards her, as he approached Charlotte reached out and knocked on the closed classroom door. Draco had just stopped next to Charlotte when Snape threw the classroom door open.

The couple followed the professor into the classroom and took the seats that he assigned to them, Draco was seated at the front of the room over at the sink with a large mound of dirty, filthy cauldron's, a scrubbing brush and a bottle of liquid cleaner. Charlotte was seated also at the front of the room but to the left of Snape's big desk, which separated herself from that of Draco. Charlotte was supplied with two pieces with parchments with the instructions for the potions that she was to make, along with the ingredients required and of course a cauldron. Two hours later Snape finally spoke; the entire time no sound had been heard throughout the classroom, and this made Charlotte very edgy so when professor Snape finally did speak it cause her to gasp. "Miss Eldridge what is the matter" Snape snapped

. "Um nothing, sorry sir just a bit of a dizzy head." Charlotte replied lowering her eyes so as to appear so. Looking at his dial on his desk snape took notice of the time it was only 8.30 but the pair had done a great deal of work within the 2 hours they had been working for. "Alright enough, off you go your finished " Snape said, both Draco and Charlotte looked at him in utter disbelief. "But...."Draco started but Draco was cut short by Snape's reply.

"Your detention is complete you both showed that you can work interpedently, efficiently and quietly that's all I wanted." "Now off you two go, it late and we have a very hard lesson ahead tomorrow". "Um sir can i just a quick question before we go?" Charlotte asked as she stood up" "Why not just make it quick Miss Eldridge I still have papers to mark" Snape replied.

"Well sir I was just wondering if it would be possible to pick up another level of potions to put towards my N.E.W.T.S, I enjoy potions and want to have the qualifications in it?"

"Well your already taking advanced potions and an A level potions same as Mr Malfoy here but if you are really interested I can put you into the Triple A potions class which would give you the advantage over the others doing potions, I think it would be the advised way to go" Snape replied.

"Um" Charlotte replied nodding "Well can I do that then sir, take up the Triple A level" "Mmm yes, ok, fine I will sort it tomorrow and let you know the details. Now you two go" Replied Snape. Charlotte gave Professor Snape a smile and walked out of the classroom with Draco following behind.

As they approached the dorm entry, stopped to share a brief kiss before embarking into the common room. Entering the common room Draco and Charlotte said their goodnights and went their sperate ways.
