The Potion

When Hermione awoke the next day, she felt dizzy. She got up and went down to breakfast with her head spinning. She wondered what was wrong with her. Then she remembered the demonstration the night before. The potion. What was it? She pondered on this as she entered the Great Hall. Every head turned to face her as she walked to her seat. Harry and Ron were already there, amidst the other students whispering and glancing at Hermione.

As Hermione sat own, she realized that something was wrong. The whispering, the staring, the laughing. Then she remembered what she had wanted to do last night, as she watched the demonstration. Show her true feelings to a certain teacher. She was shaken from her daydream by Harry, whispering something in her ear.

"Hermione! Look at what you're wearing!" he hissed as she stared at herself. She had come down to breakfast in her pajamas! She was wearing boxer shorts with Lockheart written on them and worse still, a pink cape that the Professor had been wearing the night before. She glanced up at the staff table, and sighed in delight. Gilderoy was there, also staring at her. Was it a love potion? She thought to herself, stunned.

Then suddenly Dumbledore stood up and cast a spell over the mesmerized Hermione. She fell to the ground, unconscious. Gilderoy's reaction was immense. "Leave her to me!" he cried, storming down the aisle between the house tables. Harry and Ron looked at each other, worried stiff. They knew what had happened back in their second year.
