Disclaimer: If I was JKR (Who owns everyone and everything in this story you recognize), I would be off writing book 6 so as to make bazillions of dollars. However, I'm not, so I'm sticking to writing lame fanfiction.

A/N: Work is absolutly horrid, but I only have 3 or 4 more days before it's over and I can sit on my lazy butt until next summer. Well, not quite, since band camp starts immediatly after, but that's beside the point (wow...I just noticed how often I say the phrase "But that's beside the point." Odd, isn't it?). Anyway, updates should hopefully come a bit more often as of now. Oh, and I celebrated my birthday on the 27th on July, so happy birthday to me! If you really want to give me a present, you could give me a nice, big review.... o.~

Lucia heaved herself into a seat in the back of the Potions classroom, a few tables away from where Sirius and James were

sitting, grinning broadly. Every few minutes Sirius would look over at Lucia and nod, as if begging her silently not to back out on him.

Lucia found herself paired up with Cassandra Greely for the period, a clumsy Slytherin girl who didn't talk much and had a lot

of pimples. Lucia wondered to herself what mistake from the Sorthing Hat caused Cassandra to end up in Slytherin. After all, there

were a lot of words to describe her, but neither sly nor cunning were included among them.

The two of them brewed their potion in silence, only occasionally grunting and pointing at a needed ingrediant or grumbling

when something went wrong. Lucia found herself doing most of the work, Cassandra seemed thoroughly engrossed in examining a

rather large beetle that was scurrying across the table, and Lucia figured the task would be easier if she did it herself. She sighed as

she diced up the bark of some tree who's name she couldn't pronounce and measured out a beaker of Flobberworm Mucous (she

added a bit too much, causing her potion to turn an unpleasant shade of green.)

Lucia noticed Sirius, glancing and nodding for what seemed like the gazillionth time. She glared at him and mouthed the

words "shut up!", but to no avail. Sirius just grinned and nodded more vigorously.

The potions class continued on for nearly an hour without any distractions or suspiscious activity (besides Peter Pettigrew,

who had caused his concoction to explode violently, much to the the exasperation of his partner.) when Remus and Peter set off a

spectacular load of firecrackers, which sparked and whizzed around the room, diving at various students. Professor Wretchly promptly

seized the two pranksters by the wrists, dragging them off the the Head Master's office.

Barely an instant after the Professor had left the room, the chaos began. James poured the entire contents of the cauldron,

save a cup or so, into a vial and tucked it into his bag casually. At the exact same moment, Sirius pounced on Snape. "Oi, Snivellus!"

he cackled, clasping his right hand firmly across Snape's eyes and using his left to pour what remained of the potion down the throat

of a squirming Snape.

"Now, Lucia!" bellowed Sirius. Not knowing exactly what she intended to do, Lucia jumped out of her seat and lunged across

the room towards Lucius, who was sitting next to Snape, right in his line of vision. She hoped silently to herself that she didn't make a

mistake, as she really didn't fancy snogging Severus.

A/N (again)- Yup, I started double spacing. I think it should make things easier to read, plus make my chapters look less pitifully short. *Grins* Also, I have noticed the similarity between the names Lucius and Lucia. However, it was niether planned nor intended. The charecters are not, I repeat NOT, related in any way, shape, or form. I just thought I'd clear that up. In your reviews please let me know whether you'd prefer to see Sevvie and Lucius snogging or Sevvie and Lucia. I have a plan, but if the majority of the people would like to see it the other way I'll definatly change it. Let me know, you're opinion counts! Thanks for reading! XD
