A/N: Thanks for all the reviews. I own nothing HP related.

Natalie- Thank you Miss Natalie. It's flurrying! Hehe

Julia- No, don't die! Oh shoot, minus one fan. Don't worry I'll get to Kitty soon.

Bookworm- thanks. I'm glad I'm not the only one out there whoever thought of this. I'm sure yours would have been good anyway.

And for everyone else who reviewed, and those who didn't, and those who won't. ::cough:: sir Ben ::cough:: Oh, and I did see the movie, the first day it was out too. But I was unable to sport my Slytherin colors because I went to Emilia's house straight from school. :sigh: But anyone who is anyone should have known that I'm a Slytherin at heart!





Unapparent Nervousness**********



If anyone noticed on Monday that Jessica seemed more nervous than usual, they didn't say anything. None of the other teachers acted differently around her. 'Maybe he didn't recognize me.' She could only hope.

That hope vanished when she stepped into the science room for 6th period. When Jessica looked up at the teacher's desk, she was greeted with a dark, icy glare from the substitute. She lowered her eyes and hurried to the back of the room to a seat.

The rest of class continued quietly with a few looks from Mr. Scots. At the end of class, he gave everyone an assignment; to find and research a modern medicine that is made using ingredients from nature. 'Potions' Jessica couldn't help but smirk.

Right before the bell rang, Mr. Scots told everyone to pack up. Then he headed towards the back of the room - right towards Jessica. "See me after the bell rings." He spoke in a low voice, as if daring her to object. She merely nodded and began to pack up.



Jessica got up and went over to Mr. Scot's desk when the bell finally rang. She put her binder down and sat on the edge of the front table. Mr. Scots was still in the hallway. So she waited.

The door clicked shut. Mr. Scots walked over and leaned on his desk in front of Jessica.

"What exactly did you hear yesterday?" he began.

Jessica looked at him blankly. "I heard you talking about the students, the classes, homework, the headmaster." She checked for a reaction before continuing. There was none visible on his face. "Me."

Mr. Scots sneered. "You must have been there quite a while, to hear all that." She nodded. "You're one of the ones who has been suspecting something, right?"

"Since the first day." Jessica muttered.

"Well then, Miss Jessica." Mr. Scots stood up straight, walked back around his desk and sat down. He stated darkly, "It seems like we have a great deal to talk about."

Jessica sighed. It was going to be a long afternoon.
