Disclaimer: J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter, not me, though it would be nice if I had, since I'd be rich, but either way, I own nothing already written or claimed by other people, and if they don't claim it, well finders keepers.
Summary: This story is supposed to be set a few years after the HP story. It won't contain very many of the official characters, except for the professors, of course. The rest will be made up by me. This is rated R because I'm too lazy to make sure it stays pg or pg-13.
The Tale of a Young Wizard
--------
"So how did your date with Sabrina go?" Gregory teased.
Steven slugged him hard in the arm. "Ow!!"
"It wasn't a date and you know it...and I don't want to talk about it."
"That bad huh? What'd she do, kick you in the balls?"
"No...but I think she might've wanted to..."
"Well what the hell did you do?"
"I told her she had a pretty voice.."
"And...?"
"And What?"
"That's all you did? Merlin! You over react way too much...a girl isn't going to flip out on you if you compliment her or show her your emotions..."
"I don't know about that...I just can't say things like what I said..I'm too scared..."
"Sheesh...you are one pathetic kid, you know that right?"
"Yeah..."
"Well at least you know it." Gregory kidded to him.
Steven looked around the Great Hall at all the other kids eating breakfast. His eyes came across Sabrina, who had been staring at the two of them, she actually smiled at him, and then returned to her food.
She smiled at me...he thought to himself...she actually smiled at me...she isn't mad! She isn't mad!!!
Suddenly the Gryffindor table broke into cheers as Johnathen Corsmaros was welcomed back. Apparently the nurse had found a way to cure the Insomniweed after just one day. Steven's heart sank down to his foot when he saw the look on Sabrina's face. She obviously had a huge crush on the redhead.
"Oh well..." He mumbled to himself.
--------
Steven and Gregory were sitting in the courtyard under a tree, practicing the spell Incendio on leaves. Every attempt Steven had made at the spell had worked, but some of Gregory's lit his sleeve on fire, which threw him into a panic every time it happened, so Steven had to quickly cast a spell to put out the flame so that the Slytherin wouldn't burn to death simply from sheer stupidity.
"You really might want to get your wand checked..."
"My wand is fine!"
"Well if it's not your wand..." Steven said, very teasingly.
"Oh shut up!"
"I'm just kidding"
After setting fire to most of the dead leaves in the courtyard the two decided to roam the halls. The schedule for today was not as packed as it had been the day before, since it wasn't the first day. They were given a half an hour to do whatever they wished, within rule limitations. As they came around the corner, Steven stopped dead in his tracks. At the end of the completly empty hallway was Sabrina and Johnathen, holding hands and walking the opposite direction.
"Look's like she's found someone else mate."
Steven didn't say a word, he just stood there. He felt like he was going to cry, but his eyes did not water up. He felt very sad, but nothing came out.
"Oh for crying out loud, don't get all emotional on me."
"Let's just go to Charms, it's going to start soon anyway..."
--------
Gregory and Steven sat next to each other in Charms, and to the disgust of the Slytherins and the Gryffindors, Sabrina and Johnathen sat together. Holding hands under the table. Sabrina was obviously very happy, Johnathen simply looked proud. Of what he had no idea.
In Charms they worked on trying to get larger objects to fly, now that they had mastered feathers. Or at least most of them had mastered feathers, Gregory had been put to working on getting ants to fly.
The class seemed to fly by very fast to Steven...so did his time in the Great Hall for dinner. He had spent most of the day thinking about Sabrina and Johnathen. He didn't really come out of his daze until she walked into the room late for detention.
"Miss Bolzar! Ten points from Slytherin! You will not be late for detention again or I will reschedule our meetings for the morning, and I will make you come even if I have to pry you out of bed myself!"
She rolled her eyes but made sure Professor McGonagall couldn't see her do it.
"Sorry ma'am..."
"Now, I will leave you two alone, wands please."
Professor McGonagall left the room, humming another Beatles song.
"Erm...so, what's this with you and that Johnathen kid?"
"Oh it's perfect...he's so amazing...he's so...perfect. He's the love of my life!"
"Oh..I'm happy for you, but he's a Gryffindor...isn't he?"
Her voice got very menacing "Yeah, so what!"
"Nothing! I was just making conversation."
"Oh..sorry...I expect a typical Slytherin like you would be making fun of me for dating one.."
"What makes you think I'm a typical Slytherin?"
"I don't know...you hang around with Gregory, and he's definitly a typical Slytherin."
"Gregory is a coward...that mouse transfiguration fit him really well because he's just like a mouse..."
The two of them burst into laughter. "He sure made one ugly mouse!" She said. "Not like the one I had made out of my pitcher..he was cute! Too bad I had to change him back..."
"Well you could always buy one."
"Yeah...but my cat wouldn't be too thrilled with him..."
"You have a cat? Cool!"
"Yeah, it's black and named Midnight, I love him."
"So um...what was that you had said yesterday, about my voice?" Sabrina asked, scooting towards him a bit.
"Erm uh...you see..I...uhm.."
"That's enough for today children." Professor McGonagall said from the door, Steven grabbed his wand and very quickly headed back to the Slytherin commons, not running this time, but still walking too fast for her to catch up, and despite her calls to him, he did not turn back. He was too scared to face her question.

Notes: I suppose this was a semi-pointless chapter...but the detention part built up the Sabrina-Steven thing. Review, get a free hug, perhaps I will give a hug and you will get a free review? Who knows...tomorrow...the next chapter!
