- Karuri, Midnight Mistress, Lessien-Took, JacksApprentice, Sei the purple Ryu, Sweet Sorrow1, Yana5, KaylaisEvenstar, and Isis-mystic! Thank you for reviewing!
One more note: I'm only doing Harry's POV for two reasons. One, I'm afraid I'll mess up the story, and Draco's character if I do do him. And two, well, I simply don't want to. Sorry for those of you who wanted Draco's side. Hope this doesn't change whether or not you continue to read. I'll make up for it, I promise.

"What's the password?" Ron asked, as the trio came up to the portrait of the Fat Lady.
"Rowling," Hermione answered.
They clambered into the common room and took their seats next to the fire.
Harry could feel the taste of the potion on his lips. He licked the potion off, but the taste remained. It tasted like rose petals, or what he thought rose petals would taste like. While the scent was captivating, it felt like he was chewing on grass.
Harry couldn't help but wonder where the rose petals had come from.
Hermione and Ron were in a heated argument about Jinte Mitkern, the new Seeker for Romania.
"Hermione, what was the potion supposed to taste like?" Harry interrupted.
Hermione immediately stopped her conversation and faced Harry.
"You don't think something went wrong do you?" she asked, with concern embedded in her expression.
"Just curios," Harry quickly answered.
"Since the chikel root is the main ingredient, it should have a faint resemblance to that. However, most people claim that there is no flavor to it. Unless the rose petal is added, then that is what it would taste like. Are you sure nothing happened?" Hermione asked, eyebrows knotted in trepidation.
"The rose petal was the last ingredient?" Harry checked.
Hermione nodded.
"Thanks."
"Sure, but if anything's wrong, you really should tell a teacher," she warned.
Harry nodded.
"I think I'm going to go take a shower," Harry told his friends.
Harry walked up to his dorm and opened the dorm. Neville was sitting on his bed looking at his Remembrall.
"Hey Neville. What'd you forget?"
"Can't remember," came the response.
"Ummm... Neville, did you add rose petals to your potion?"
"Yeah, that was the last ingredient, wasn't it?" His face went pale.
So did Harry's.
Harry bolted down the stairs. He was sure that some of Neville's potion had spilled into his cauldron when the slight explosion occurred.
"Hermione... do you have... a copy... of the book... we used... today?" Harry managed to mumble through deep breaths.
"Yeah, I think I have it somewhere on my desk. I'll go get it," replied Hermione, the worried look slowly returning.
After a couple minutes, she returned.
"It's not the same book, but it has the potion in there," she explained, when she handed Harry a book twice the size of the previous one.
"Mate, you sure you're okay?" Ron piped.
Harry shook his head.
"No, no I'm not sure."
Harry opened the book and flipped through its pages, scanning for the potion.
