Chapter 8
"Well time for Potions," I said to Percy trying to make him laugh. He looked dreadfully annoyed at something, which started to annoy me. I had to think of something fast. Percy was looking at me funny and I made a cute little face and made a cute baby voice saying, "Percy, why're you so annoyed," he looked at me and made a short laugh before he became serious again. "There's nothing wrong, I just, I."
He was cut off when we entered potions class and I took a seat next to Percy. I noticed how annoyed he looked when Wood sat on the other side of me. All of a sudden a dark swish entered the room. It was Professor Snape. Well class, we seem to have two new students he said and stopped to sneer at both Lilia and me. Then when he opened the role book and said, "Let's find out the names of these two girls from America shall we."
He pales at the site of our names in the book. "Dwyn and Lilia Andraste," he said his expression both shocked and blank for a moment as if he were seeing something from the past like a lost memory. "Start reading chapter 1," he choked out and ran from the room leaving everybody confused and gawking at both Lilia and I. All we could do was shrug.
He wasn't at the sorting and probably had a good reason, but that couldn't have been the reason for what happened when he saw our names there has to be something more. My thoughts were interrupted when we walked out the door into the hallway. "What was that all about," asked Percy looking as thoughtful as ever. "To tell you the truth Perce, I do not know," I started, "Why?" Percy took a moment and then said, "Snape never acted like that before, nothing would make him act like that, not even when Fred and George slipped an exploding toffee in the goblet on Snape's desk and exploded when he drank it."
My mind started wondering, "Woah, that's pretty harsh," I said and we continued through the rest of the day. Ofcourse stories and rumors spread fast. By the time lunch came around people wanted to know what happened in potions and Snape looked like he was dragged up from the dungeons by his sneakers. It was almost a funny sight to laugh about, but I was kind of worried.
From what Percy had told me, Snape usually watches the Slytherins with pride and glares at all the Griffendors; but today he kept to Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. I'm guessing that it had to do with both Lilia and I.
