"I knew it!" said Griffin slamming his goblet of pumpkin juice down on the
table when viewing his schedule.
"You knew what?" inquired Hermione taking a seat at the table across from him.
"I knew that we'd get stuck with double Potions with Slytherins first thing this morning!"
"I wonder what Snape has in plan for us today," Ron wondered out load.
"He'll most likely force feed us a potion with side effects of sudden death," replied Kieran.
"Well believe me I'd prefer that to two hours in the same room with Malfoy and Snape," said Griffin sullenly.
"What about you guys, who do you have first?" Harry asked Christiana and Ari.
"Divination," Christiana groaned.
"Then we might as well give you the death potion and make Trelawney happy," said Harry.
"Well no point in delaying the inevitable," said Kieran finishing his bacon. "Let's go."
"Fine deprive me of my last happy moments before I enter that torture chamber they call Potions class," said Griffin with his head in his hands.
"Oh quit whining and get up," said Harry hitting Griffin in the back of his head.
"Ouch," said Griffin rubbing his head as they made their way out of the Great Hall.
"Hey Griffin," called Maria from down the hall.
"Why hello there," said Griffin kissing her lightly, "and how would you be this fine morning?"
"Fine you?"
Griffin showed his girlfriend his schedule. Maria looked it over quickly and made a face when she read where Griffin was heading now.
"Well good luck with that one," she said giving him a peck on the cheek, "I'm off the Muggle Studies."
"Picnic Saturday at 12:00 then," he called after her.
"Sure!"
"Aren't we the romantic one," said Kieran laughing.
"Oh you should talk Mr. Adora and I are having a candle light dinner in the North Tower," retaliated Griffin.
"I bet that's not all they were doing," said Harry trying to stifle his laughter as they walked into the Potions classroom.
"Shut up Harry," said Kieran punching his arm.
"O c'mon you know its true," Griffin said and while he and Harry moved away to the other side of the classroom before Kieran could say anything else.
"Sit down Mr. Potter , Mr. Black," said Snape as he walked into the room slamming the door behind him. "I will be setting up the partners today."
When Snape finished partnering them up Harry wound up with Hermione, Kieran was with Lavender Brown, Ron had Harry's girlfriend Gabby, and Griffin was the unlucky soul partnered with Malfoy.
"We seem to be uneven," said Snape, "very well Adora you will partner with Black and Malfoy."
"Today you will be making a difficult potion that requires extreme concentration and the following of explicit instructions. The Polyjuice Potion is not to be taken lightly."
The room remained silent but Harry, Ron, and Hermione exchanged a quick smile each thinking the same thing.
"Now you will each take a strand of your partner's hair and that is who you will be turning into."
"Um . . . Professor how exactly are we going to do this?" asked Adora motioning to Griffin and Malfoy.
"You will be Mr. Black, he will be Mr. Malfoy, and Draco will be you," Snape answered silkily. "Now begin."
Griffin looked appalled at the fact of turning into Malfoy. If the situation hadn't been so terrible Harry would have been in hysterics.
"No way that's not going to work," said Griffin, "Professor I CAN'T be Malfoy!"
"And why is that?" said Snape. "Like its not obvious! I HATE HIM!"
"I'm sorry Mr. Black but you'll have to come up with a more reasonable excuse before you can get me to change your partner," said Snape calmly.
"Well I'm allergic to him," said Griffin putting in a fake sneeze for good measure.
"I highly doubt that," said Snape beginning to walk away.
"My . my religion forbids it!"
"And what religion is that?"
"ANTI - DEATHEATER!" Griffin yelled.
"Twenty points from Gryffindor and detention tomorrow night Mr. Black!" bellowed Snape. "Now get to work.. And congratulations, I believe you've just broke your father's record in getting a detention 15 minutes into class on the first day of term."
Griffin said no more but continued to scowl at Snape throughout the class, which was particularly amusing when he had been turned into Malfoy.
"You knew what?" inquired Hermione taking a seat at the table across from him.
"I knew that we'd get stuck with double Potions with Slytherins first thing this morning!"
