A/N: Sorry guys but I have to put this up. I recently put up the second
chapter of this fic and there has been some confusion. DRACO IS NOT A
TEACHER! Alright? Because honestly, that just wouldn't be right. He is
simply there to HELP the teachers, but he himself is still considered a
student. Hmmm.I might end up changing that then but for now this is how it
stays. Alright? So I repeat, Draco is NOT a teacher, he is only there to
help and you all will soon find out exactly WHY he has come back to
Hogwarts after he graduated, alright? ;) Thanks, I just had to clear that
up.third chapter should be coming soon but I have major tests right now it
might take me about another 2 weeks. Alrighty then, that's all!
Thanks!
P.S. I have slightly changed the second chapter where Dumbledore speaks at the end to make this point clear.
Chapter 3- Toads
Important A/N: Ok, this really isn't a real chapter. I haven't had time to update and I just read the main page saying that you can't have a whole chapter for an author's note, soooooo. out of fear that they might take my story down or something I have made a little temporary false chapter until the real one is put up. You may read if you want but this is not beta read or very good. Neither is it the real chapter 3 so I do not see the point. Although the real chapter should be put up before the break is over. If you'd like me to let you know just leave a comment telling me so and your e- mail and I'll be more than happy too. :D Thanks for all those who have read my story and/or commented. You guys are great! Amazing! Sorry for the inconvenience guys.

'A toad,' Alexis stated simply.
Ginny suddenly snapped her head to look at her best friend. She frowned in confusion.
'A what?' she asked again to make sure she wasn't hearing things.
'A toad Ginny, a toad!' Ginny looked down where Alexis held a big, fat green toad struggling between her grasp.
'A-toad,' she repeated slowly, still slightly confused, with absolutely no idea of what was going on. Alexis breathed hard in frustration at the realization that her best friend had paid absolutely no attention to her in the past half hour. She was about to say something when she noticed Ginny was staring at the front of the class, where she had been for the past half hour. A smirk wriggled its way onto her lips at seeing Draco Malfoy in the front of the class, talking attentively to Professor Snape. She could see the way Ginny's eyes narrowed, concentrated on the blonde. She had to admit, that git filled out nicely since last year. His hair was still the trademark blonde and his smirk was still placed annoyingly about his lips.
'Speaking of toads-why is it that you can't turn away from that one?' Ginny coked her head back, facing Alexis, her cheeks red and blushing. Alexis's eyes widened, 'You've been keeping secrets from me Virginia Rose Weasley!' Ginny frowned, she hated when people called her Virginia.
'Is there a problem here girls? Not enough work to do? Maybe an essay on the 100 uses of Lizard tongues would make you get down to work?' Snapes' harsh voice diced through the air and the two girls instantly went rigid.
'Sorry Professor,' the two girls squealed.
'See what I have to deal with Draco?' Snape turned and Ginny just realized Draco was standing in front of her desk. She was almost afraid to look into his eyes. Her body tensed even more and Alexis grinned at her, she was ready to kill her best friend. She looked at him, he looked a lot like when she had last seen him but he had filled out more. He was still pale and had that slicked back blinding blonde hair, and of course the trademark smirk was placed firmly upon his pale lips.
'20 points from Gryffindor,' Draco smirked. In his past year he had loved taking points from Gryffindor and it came out of his mouth almost mechanically.
Ginny suddenly looked up at Draco, forgetting herself.
'You can't do that!' she protested, 'you're not even a teacher, Malfoy,' she almost spat his name. To her surprise Draco turned to face her and stayed where he was. He glared at her, his grey eyes sharp. Her breath sped up as she looked at him and she began to fiddle with her hair. She couldn't handle this any longer. Alexis had gone back to their potion and no one was saying anything.
'Fine,' Snapes voice cut in again, 'then I shall have to insist on taking points of off Gryffindor,' and he smiled, like he usually did when he took points of off Gryffindor. Ginny's eyes widened and was about to protest but stopped herself. She wasn't that stupid to argue with Snape.
As Ginny watched Draco turn away a sudden shock hit her. 'Malfoy!' she called after him. Did he remember? Maybe it had been so insignificant to him that he wouldn't remember. She let her eyes narrow in truthful disgust as she pushed her hair aside with her hand. Shocked she had just called after him.
'Weasley,' he said coldly, his eyebrow cocked in amusement. She sneered at him, suddenly wishing she hadn't called him and to her surprise he chuckled coldly, cruelly. Draco raked the young Weasley up and down with his eyes. She looked different. He couldn't quite place it, but she looked quite stunning.
Ginny coughed awkwardly and Draco ripped his eyes away from her. 'What are you doing?' Ginny asked, her eyes narrowed, this was very awkward.
'Oh please Weasley,' he smirked, 'don't go crying on me again,' his voice was cold and menacing. She froze up, her back went rigid against the chair. 'What? You didn't expect me to forget, did you? I would never forget that kind of blackmailing opportunity, Weasley,' he chuckled coldly and after giving her a long look walked away back to the front of the class to where Professor Snape was now shoving small pink fuzzy objects into a jar.
Ginny stared at the Draco and blinked, blackmailing opportunities? That didn't sound very good.
