OMG! I am sooooo sorry I haven't updated in a while. My computer caught like 10 viruses and I couldn't do anything. Not even write out my chapters! It sucked. Ok, so here it is. Better late than never.

Oh, and thank you so much for all of my wonderful reviews! I finally got 50! Just one question…is there a special way to getting like 500? Cause I see people with 500 and I have no idea how they got that many people to review…

Chapter 21

Forget Me Not

Jenna lay listlessly on her bed, staring at the scarlet canopy of her bed. The conversation she had heard swam in her head till she got nauseous and had to think of other things.

The door to the dormitory creaked open. Jenna heard footsteps, muffled by the thick red carpet, coming towards her. The bed hangings were pulled aside and Rhea and Addy were hovering over her.

"Are you all right? We didn't see you at dinner." Rhea asked as she handed Jenna a napkin filled with a roll and a piece of chicken before she began fidgeting with her robes.

"Do you need to see Madam Pomphrey? You look pale and she could make you better just like that." Addy snapped her fingers.

Jenna set down the napkin and finally rested her eyes on her friends. "No thanks. I think I'm just tired."

Rhea shoved the food in Jenna's face. "That's because you haven't eaten anything. Go on…Eat!"

"Rhea! That is incredibly rude. Here let me get that." Addy took the napkin and placed it on the bedside table. "We'll just leave you alone. Good night, Jenna."

"Yeah, G'night!" Rhea called out as they left the room to go down to the common room. The door clicked shut as Jenna turned over and fell into a fitful sleep.

Jenna woke the next morning to the sun shining and the birds singing. She groaned and slowly got out of bed. She was just about to get dressed when Addy burst into the room.

"You're just getting up? We have potions in 10 minutes!" Jenna's eyes widened as she scrambled to get into her uniform.

"Aahhh!" she screamed as she tripped on her robes and fell to the floor. Addy rolled her eyes and left with her and Rhea's book bags.

Jenna got up and managed to finish getting dressed without hurting herself anymore than she already had. She grabbed her things and ran out of the tower at top speed to try and get there on time, but to no avail.

"You're late Miss Meyers. Ten points from Gryffindor." Snape sneered. He looked mad, but there was something about his tone that made Jenna think he was happy she had arrived late, so he could make her suffer.

Jenna sat down in an empty seat towards the back. Her usual seat had been filled by a fellow Gryffindor. She turned to see whom she had sat next to. It was a girl with long curly blonde hair tied back with a hideous pink ribbon and dull brown eyes. A Slytherin by the name of Bernice Astrophel. Jenna sighed and stared at the board, where Snape was listing ingredients for a Forgetfulness Potion.

Jenna took out the various ingredients and placed them on her desk. As she began cutting up her ginger, she felt a nudge. She looked over to the girl next to her.

"Yes?"

"Could I borrow some of that?" Bernice indicated to the small jar containing the bundimun secretion. Her voice sounded hoarse and made Jenna think of that time when her grandfather had strep throat.

Jenna passed the jar over and continued to chop up the ginger. She threw the ginger into the cauldron and then plopped in a spine of lionfish, when she heard a horrible hissing coming from Bernice's cauldron.

The liquid inside had turned a slimy green and was eating away at the cauldron. Bernice was hastily adding random ingredients to make it stop, but nothing was working. Jenna was quickly moving her things away from the slime that was beginning to ooze from the pot, when Snape was standing in front of their desk.

"I see we've had a little accident," he sneered menacingly as he magicked the mess away. "Miss Astrophel, please look at the board and tell me how many drops of bundimun secretion should be added to this potion."

Bernice stared at the board for a minute before meekly replying. "Two." Snape continued. "Well then, could you please tell the class how many you put in?"

"Seven."

"That's right. Next time, don't be so foolish Miss Astrophel." Snape began to walk away before turning around sharply. "Five points from Gryffindor, Miss Meyers. You should have informed her that she was putting too much in."

Jenna stared at him with her mouth open and tears threatening to fall from her eyes. 'That is so unfair.' She whispered to herself. She glanced over at Bernice who was now filing her nails with a smug smile plastered onto her face.

Jenna finished the rest of her potion in silence, trying to avoid both Bernice and Snape. Jenna stared at her potion, which was a bright green, and corked her finished potion in a glass vial, before bringing it up to Snape's desk.

After class Addy and Rhea ran up to Jenna.

"That was completely unfair, Jenna. You did nothing wrong."

"Well except for coming late to class."

"Shut it Addy! Jenna doesn't need to hear that."

Addy sighed.

"Ok, new topic. Aunt Ginny's wedding! You're coming with us, no matter what your Mum says."

"Rhea, I can't."

"Course you can. We can get Fred and George to bust you out."

"Rhea, don't even ask them. If Jenna says that she can't go, then she can't go." Rhea stuck her tongue at her sister before closing her mouth and staring at her books.

"I wish I could, though." Jenna sighed sadly. Rhea glanced at Addy, waiting for her to walk away before tugging on Jenna's sleeve.

"What?"

Rhea leaned in close to Jenna and whispered. "I'm asking Fred and George. They'll think of this as a great adventure…are you up for it?"

Jenna looked over towards Addy who was now slowly walking up the staircase, completely ignorant to the fact that she was alone.

"All right…let's do it."
