CHAPTER 6
Will I Ever Learn From My Mistakes
BV whipped around, "HARRY! Don't do that!"
"Sorry, BV, hey what were you doing in there? Getting in trouble?" Harry asked smiling his hand staying on BV's shoulder.
BV snarled, "No, I take an extra defenses class at Durmstrang." She showed him her book. "Where you are someone's favorite topic of discussion."
"Who?" Harry asked obviously intrigued.
BV smiled, "Fleur De Lacour."
"Ah, so that's where she is these days! How's she been?" Harry asked intrigued further.
"Wonderful…" BV answered sarcastically, "Now if you don't mind, I'm going back to Ravenclaw commons before I get hell from Snape again." BV snapped as she walked away.
"BV!" Harry called as he ran to catch up with her, " What happened with Snape?"
BV closed her eyes remembering.
Flashback
"Miss Reinheart, a word if you please?" Professor Snape called out after the bell rang. BV set her bag down and waited for him to continue. She challenged him with her eyes wanting to get on with her day. "I believe the other night I told you that we would arrange your detention soon."
"Uh Huh." BV said resting her weight on one of her hips.
"Yes, well I think you would do fantastically working to make me several healing potions for Madame Pomprey. Each by hand, Miss Reinheart, no duplication charms, if you do I will know. Then I believe Professor Vector has a huge stack of papers that need to be filed."
"Whatever." BV responded, this wasn't so bad…..
End of Flashback
"Yeah well now I gotta serve my detention, talk to you later." BV stated.
"BV! That's not fair, Davies and Marietta only got stuck grading test for Flitwick." Harry exclaimed.
BV sighed, "yeah well it's Snape, since when has Snape been fair?"
Harry smiled, "Never, so I guess I found one thing we've got in common!"
BV rested her weight in her hip, "What's that?"
"Snape really hates both of us!" Harry laughed.
"Yeah, great thing to have in common, bye!" BV said getting agitated by Harry's immaturity.
Harry tried to stop her, "BV! Why are you being so, stuck up?"
"Because," BV stated, "I hate to be hit on when I know the guy that's hitting on me belongs with another girl!"
"You mean Cho, don't you?" Harry asked.
BV smiled, "Yeah, you two were made for each other! Not you and me, I've got my own happy ending else where! You're Cho's happily ever after, go make it for her, cuz in your being her happy ending you find your happy ending. Night, Harry. BV walked back to Ravenclaw commons to drop off her book.
As she left Harry whispered, "Through Cho I found you."
About twenty feet from the entrance to the Ravenclaw Common room another hand flung itself across BV's mouth.
"Hey, BV." The cold voice of Roger Davies cooed.
BV closed her eyes and snarled, "get lost, Davies, I don't wanna hear it."
"Oh, BV, it's not that simple!" Roger quoted, "It's far more complicated than that. You should know, I'm a Jed kinda guy."
BV's blood ran cold her pulse quickened. She was shocked, "Jed? How do you know about Jed." She spat venomously her voice quivering.
"I have my sources. Besides, if you remember Jed, you remember if he didn't get what he wanted from concession, he'd get it by force."
BV snapped, "I know that, get out of my way Davies or didn't the other night teach you anything?"
"Oh, yes, it did BV. I taught me that you're still afraid of me, and that's how I want it to be. Night, ma chere."
BV's first reaction was to chase after him and beat the snot out of him. But the scared and afraid BV spoke and kept her there. She finally moved and quickly dropped off her book on a table in the commons, she'd get it later. She flung on her black school robes and went to the dungeons to start her potion making for the night. BV arrived to an awaiting Snape.
"Tardiness is not acceptable, Miss Reinheart." Snape silkily said.
BV glared at him, "Yeah, sorry, I got caught up at Durmstrang, class ran long."
"Well get started the ingredients are in that cabinet" he pointed to an open cabinet, "Yes and the numbers of potions are on top of the directions. The jars are next to my desk in that box, they'll magically refill. And I need to remind you no magic, for I will know." Snape commanded, "Good night, Miss Reinheart."
"Night," BV snarled as she picked up the first direction sheet. "alright, I can make a burn healing potion." Then she saw the quantity, 32. "AWH come off! Is he serious that'll take all night alone! How many more are there?" BV questioned to no one. She looked three more sheets under that. There was a new potion to her a fathmousis potion. BV knew it was a branch off potion of the Fortimus potion but she wasn't sure what it suppressed. She read the top of the page, "A suppressant of legilimency attempts used with occlumency."
BV wondered aloud, "Who would need such a potion? Hmm, only one of those, it's tricky too." BV decided she'd try this one while she was still awake, the fever reducing potion she could do it in her sleep, she'd made it so many times for Noel under her mother's supervision. She gathered the ingredients and began when the potion needed to simmer for an hour and a half, BV began to prepare the table for the dreamless sleep potion. After that she arranged her other tables knowing if she started one that would be very stupid! She'd over cook her new potion and since she never worked with it before she didn't know what would happen to it if it did indeed over cook. BV sat there for another hour as her fathmousis potion brewed. Then she continued. She put it in three glass jars and set them on Snape's desk with a label under them. The night passed slowly and BV finally finished at 6:45 in the morning. Snape came down just as BV was twisting the cap of the last jar on.
"Done." She said weakly.
Snape obviously surprised said, "Well that's part one, done Miss Reinheart, of course I think you may have cheated." He waved his wand and nothing happed to BV's jars of potions. "Impressive Miss Reinheart, you remained awake and finished with out magic, now the accuracy." He waved his wand again and the Fathmousis potions jar got a red cap on it's lid. "alright." He went to the next three and they all were given different color lids.
"Miss Reinheart, you should have considered going into Medwizardry, you're quite gifted at potions. I'm surprised you made a satisfactory Fathmousis potion." Snape complimented.
"Thank you, Sir." BV said sitting down her feet were crying out in pain.
"Now off to Professor Vector's she'll be waiting." Snape commanded. BV arose and almost fell over with exhaustion.
"You, know." BV said quietly and sleepily, "This really isn't fair, Roger and Marietta only had to grade test for Flitwick." She walked slowly towards the door. As she left Professor Snape commented:
"That's one hell of girl, so much like Lauren, yet so far away."
Professor Vector's office
"Good morning BV, did Snape let you get some rest?" Professor Vector greeted BV.
"What do you think?" BV questioned Professor Vector. Vector, a young mother herself, took a slight favoritism towards BV. They had a very close friendship even though BV dropped her class this year.
Vector smiled, "Not at all, you know you can sleep till breakfast you can do it this afternoon during your study hall with me."
"Nah, I'm good, Vanessa." BV answered.
Vector smiled, "Alright, Bridgette, but if you get tired just go lay down in my room."
"Won't need to." BV sighed as she took a huge pile of papers and began to divide by classes first. She smiled to herself, 'Vanessa is so disorganized!'
The young 28 year old, Vanessa Vector stood at her doorway and watched as BV worked relentlessly. ' so much like me and Lauren.' She turned as her blonde curls brushed her face and she vanished into her office. An hour later Professor Vector got ready to go to breakfast, she was planning to let BV go without finishing no matter how much she protested. She went down to her class room and saw the young Miss Reinheart asleep on top of her fourth year's test.
"Just like me and Lauren." She smiled as she conjured a blanket, but as soon as she laid it on BV, BV awoke.
"Oh! Sorry, I'll finish this, what time is it?" BV said hastily.
"BV, forget it, it's 7:50, time for breakfast then you get off to class." Vector said calmly.
BV sighed, "Alright, I'll come during my study hall to finish…" BV started.
Vanessa burst out, "Oh no you won't! I won't have anything for tonight's detention students if you keep it up! Go along now, Bridgette."
"Thanks Vanessa."
"Anytime honey, go!"
Honors Potions 12:50
"He made you stay up all night!" Cho asked as they sat down for their second Honors Potions class of the day.
"Yeah, so if I fall asleep wake me up before he does!" BV smirked as she sat down. She pulled out her notes and was ready. Professor Snape entered and began explaining how they were going to work on making a potion for transformation of body types. BV didn't care she read how to make one of these her last year at Vincentian. So when it came to making them BV could practically recite the ingredients. She slowly worked to add them in the order prescribed but of course her sleep deprived mind forgot to add the eye of newt after the leaves of a pytholouge. All of a sudden BV's cauldron started to bubble and spit out pink sparks everywhere!
"Tsk Tsk, Miss Reinheart, is this potion a little too difficult for you to make? Well I have some more potions that need to be made tonight, This time you shall have help from a sixth year, tonight same time, Miss Reinheart." Snape chided.
BV sighed slightly angry was Snape trying to make her life a living hell? "Fine!" BV said picking up her bag and storming out of the still in session class! She ran back to Ravenclaw commons. She came into the common room and not thinking flung herself onto a near by sofa. She soon fell asleep and wasn't woken up till after lunch when Andrea found her.
"Good morning sleepy head! Way to go walking out on Snape!" Andrea cheered.
BV muttered sleepily, "Yeah well I got a detention before I left!"
"not cool! Where were you last night?" Andrea questioned.
"Doing another detention for Snape then Vector." Cho said entering the common room.
Andrea sighed, "BV, you so gotta get to bed, ditch potions this afternoon."
BV protested weakly, "I can't I have to, I don't need another night of potion making."
"Sure," Rhonda said entering, "Ditch it, your sanity is a bit more important!"
"NO!" BV protested as she stood up.
Andrea inhaled, "BV, I'm really sorry about this! Sleepsondo!" And with that BV fell to the floor sound asleep. "It was for her own good," Andrea commented as the girls got BV into bed.
A few hours latter
"Eye of newt!" BV shouted as she awoke. "Stupid potions class! OH MY GOD POTIONS!" She reached over and saw the time on her clock. 8:30! She had detention in a half an hour. She jumped out of bed threw her hair up and flung her favorite Vincentian hoodie on. Andrea seeing BV was awake stood up.
"Night, BV!" She lay down and closed her eyes.
"ANDREA! WHAT EXACTLY DID YOU DO?" BV yelled at her.
Andrea leaned up, "Well you were being stubborn and we wanted you to sleep so I cast a sleeping charm on you. You missed all of your afternoon classes.
"THANKS A LOT! I HAD A QUIZ IN CHARMS!" BV yelled grabbing her purse and climbed hastily down the ladder. She was off to the dungeons to spend a night in hell!
She knew she was late when she heard voices in the dungeons. She opened the door and her night became twenty times worse.
"Hey! BV! Good thing I'm working with you!" Harry Potter said looking away from the glaring Snape.
"Good you know each other, Miss Reinheart I think you know the drill, and if you keep up this tardiness for detentions I shall take up the matter with Professor Flitwick. Good night." He shut the door to seal BV into her own personal hell for the night.
