'Only 10 more minutes then I can leave. Only 10 more minutes then I can leave. Only.' Harry Potter repeated his new mantra in his head and nearly missed it when across the room across the room a cauldron exploded.
He quickly looked up to see a smug looking Draco Malfoy, an extremely scared Neville Longbottom, and an orange Professor Snape.
Snape was fuming. He stormed over to the two and started shouting, " Idiots, complete and utter idiots. Orange, how do you get it orange? Didn't explain that the potion should be a nice purple color? But no, Longbottom, you decide to ruin another cauldron and a pair of my robes. And you," he said turning to Malfoy, " I put you here to stop such accidents, but no you're too busy fooling around to even notice. 100 points from Gryffindor! 50 points from Slytherin! Now go to lunch, I don't want to have to look at you any longer."
Harry gathered his things and made his way out of the room quickly. He met up with Ron and Hermione and made their way to the tower to drop off their things.
"I can't believe Snape took away points from Slytherin." Ron laughed." Slimy git must be really pissed to take away from his house."
"Well you know what they say, 'There's a first time for everything' guess this proves the point" Harry said trying to get his two cents in, but his mind was still elsewhere. It had been for a while. Now his thoughts rested on one person.
He must have been deep in thought because the next thing he knew he ran right into Dumbledore.
" Hello Harry. Hope I didn't disturb you. Would you please do me a favor?"
" Yes Professor. What can I do?" Harry asked.
" Would you please go get Professor Snape and tell him to meet me in my office. It's urgent so please tell him to hurry."
" Yes Professor Dumbledore."
' Oh great' Harry thought to himself.' I Just had class with him and now I have the pleasure to go see him yay for me.'
Harry ran down to the dungeons hoping to get this over with as quickly as possible. On his way there he ran into Snape.
'Well I suppose this'll make it easier.'
"Professor!" Harry called. Hating every moment he was alone with this awful man.
"What is it?" Snape said with a smirk.
'Was that a smirk or a frown. No not a frown he's not human enough to frown."
Harry shuddered visibly then spoke," I'm sorry to bother you Professor Snape, but the Headmaster wants to speak with you right away."
"You can go tell the Headmaster that I'm quite busy at the moment and I'll see him when I can." Snape said avoiding the boy's eyes.
'Is he avoiding my eyes. Why is he avoiding my eyes?'
"He said it was urgent."
'Yeah urgent that I get out of here, but lets not mention that to him.' Harry thought wishing he could run away screaming.
"Fine Potter I'll be there in a minute."
There was a certain way he said it that Harry knew the conversation had come to a close. That and he started walking towards the Headmasters office.
Harry started back to Gryffindor Tower with a sour look on his face. Leave it to Snape to ruin what began as a good day.
'I guess Snape has that effect on people.' Harry thought bitterly ' what I don't understand is why he wouldn't look me in the eyes. That's odd, he's always looked at me, at least long enough to give me the patented 'Snape Glare' Oh well. Now's not the time to think about Snape. Actually there's never really a time to think about Snape.'
Harry met Ron and Hermione on the way back to the Tower.
"Hiya. What are you guys doing out here?"
"It nearly dinnertime and we're going to find you." Hermione said turning towards the direction of the Hall.
"Really. How time flies when you're having fun." Harry said rolling his eyes.
"I thought you were going to talk to Snape." Ron added being his usual clueless self.
"Sarcasm" Hermione said hitting Ron on the back of his head.
As they entered the Great Hall they noticed that the Slytherin table looked even more sour then usual, probably the loss of a considerable amount of points. None of them are talking, they're barely even looking at each other. And not one of them is touching their food.
The Gryffindor table, however, was another thing all together. Everyone was elated at the sudden change in behavior of Snape. All through out dinner talk was on the possibilities for Snapes actions. Lavender seemed to think he was distracted by his robes being ruined and the loss of points was a mistake, Hermione thought he had finally come to the realization that Gryffindor was OK and was just trying to be evenly horrid with his point reductions, and the Weasley twins seemed to think that he has massive brain damage from being such an evil git all the time and that he can barely even walk on his own anymore.
Harry on the other hand wasn't paying attention to his housemates at all throughout dinner. His attentions were focused elsewhere.
Hermione too was fed up with the line of talk after awhile and settled down to read a new novel she had picked up over their last Hogsmeade weekend. She had just finished a chapter when she looked up. She noticed that Harry wasn't paying attention to his dinner and from the looks of his plate, he hadn't been all evening. She was about to question him when he quickly excused himself from the table and scurried off back to the common room.
Hermione watched him leave the room wondering what had been on his mind lately, unaware that she was not the only one watching as he left.
