So I think each chapter is going to be in a different point of view.
Last chapter was Harry so this time Elena.
Oh yes, I forgot to explain how different this is from the books : Snape is DADA teacher, Slughorn is Potions, Harry still has lessons with Dumbledore, but no Half blood prince.
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, nor do I want to, but I would like a shirtless Draco Malfoy on my doorstep tommorrow (Please...)

I don't think I had ever been happier knowing in just one short hour I was going to be in Snape's class. I was, of course, happy because last night Harry Potter, the object of my daydreams for years, had asked me to be his girlfriend! Out of all the girls in Hogwarts me! I giggled to myself.
"Good morning, not crazy Elena." Ginny threw a pillow at me.
I scowled, "Sorry for being chipper."
She laughed, "Get ready, our first classes are today!"
"I know." I said, rolling out of bed. I got ready quickly, throwing on my robes so quick I was out before Ginny, who was already half way ready when I woke up.
Harry seemed to be waiting at the bottom of the stairs, "Hello beautiful."
My stomach fluttered, "Hey Harry, where's Ron and Hermione?"
"At breakfast." He took my hand and led me down the last few steps.
I smiled, "Should we head down then?"
"Sure." Harry said and we walked to breakfast hand in hand.
When we entered the hall, holding hands, whispering broke out all over the place. Harry quickened his pace, dragging me to sit across from Hermione and Ron.
"Morning." I said, aware of people at the surrounding tables staring shamelessly. Except one girl from the Ravenclaw table that burst out crying, and stormed from the hall.
Harry scratched his head adorably, "Well I guess she hasn't changed much."
After his comment I recognized the girl as Cho Chang, Harry's ex-girlfriend. Well if anything could shit all over my mood.
"I wish I could have avoided that whole thing." Harry shook his head, taking a bite of toast.
"Why?" I asked instinctively, flushing, realizing it was rude.
Harry looked uncomfortable, "You might not know, but Cho was dating Cedric Diggory until he died, and the year after she pretended to like me, but all she wanted was to ask me about Cedric."
"Oh, I'm sorry." I put my hand on his, feeling distinctively awkward.
"Don't be, I've found someone much better." Harry said, and he kissed me on the forehead.
I couldn't help but be flattered, "Harry, you are the sweetest guy I have ever met."
Ron seemed to feel the need to comment, with a mouth full of eggs, " 'ey I 'en ties seeter dan dem!"
We all laughed, except for Ron, "What?"
"That roughly translates to: hey, I'm sweeter than him." Hermione said, looking at Ron affectionately.
Harry and I raised our eyebrows.
Hermione mumbled something about five years.
"Class." Ron said, raising out of his seat.
"See you at lunch." Harry smiled and kissed me on the cheek. We went our separate ways, Harry having to go to herbology, and me going to DADA.
"Bye." I said, rejoining my friends
"So, are you and Harry like 'official' now?" One of my friends asked.
I just shrugged, knowing she was one of the biggest gossipers in our year. The other girls chatted on our way to class, about boys and clothes, and other insignificant things. I was analyzing everything that Harry did in my head, mostly where Cho Chang was concerned. It seemed like he really did like her, but it also seemed that he resented her. I might asked Hermione about that later.
Snape called us in to the classroom and I took my seat by Ginny. The greasy haired man droned on about dark arts and protecting ourselves, and whatever. I had more important things to think about. I let myself daydream about Harry and the next hogsmede weekend. I was in the middle of an extremely pleasant fantasy of Harry and I in the bathroom at the three broomsticks, when a voice whispered my name from the desk behind me.
"Yea, the one in Gryffindor, I heard Harry was paying her to cover up his affair with Ron." I turned around to see a hufflepuff girl whispering to her friend.
"Really," her friend hissed back, "Harry doesn't seem like he would beat for the other team."
I suppressed the giggle that was forced to my lips.
"Oh yea, I also heard he was in love with Cedric fourth year." The girl nodded so seriously, I couldn't help but laugh. However, I laughed so loudly to make Snape notice.
"Elena," He stood over me, "What exactly is so funny about the dementor's kiss?"
Damn, "Well sir, er, nothing sir."
"Exactly, why were you laughing." He leaned forward.
"I don't have an answer for that professor." I widened my eyes innocently.
"Detention, my office, tonight." Snape started to walk back to the front of the classroom.
I felt myself redden, "Er, sir, I already have a detention tonight." "Typical Gryffindor," Snape sneered, "Tomorrow then." I made it through the rest of Snape's speech in a stupor. A bell rang over the grounds and I got out as quickly as possible. One thought brightened my mood, I would be sitting with Harry in a mere hour.
I smiled walking down to potions. I again took my seat by Ginny, who looked extremely confused to why I was grinning after getting a detention with every Gryffindor's least favorite teacher.
The extremely fat teacher laughed to see us all in our seat, "Welcome!"
I leaned forward, potions is my favorite subject, so I actually planned on listening to the new, well old, professor. He started off talking about the O.W.L.s, and I sighed, deciding I could tune out for that bit.
After a while he clapped his hands, "Turn to page eighteen in your books."
I held back a chuckle, this potion was sure to be easy, "This potion is called the stitching brew; you put a small amount over where you have a cut and it heals it immediately, much like muggle stitches." The fat man clapped his porky hands again, signaling us to start. I got up and quickly gathered the ingredients, walking back to my seat. I was the first one to finish the potion, and I was sure it was absolutely perfect. I raised my hand, signaling Slughorn to hurry over to my table. As a treat for being the first to have it correctly done I got to leave the class early. There was only about ten minutes left, so I just hurried up to the DADA room to wait on Harry.
The bell chimed, long and low, over the grounds, and he was one of the first to come out, flanked by Hermione and Ron of course. He didn't notice me, but that was probably because Hermione seemed to be scolding him.
I snuck up behind him to listen, "Harry that was stupid!"
"I couldn't help it he was smirking." Harry defended himself.
I ran up behind them, "Hey Harry."
"Oh, hi Elena." I couldn't help but notice he seemed to cheer up at my presence.
"Elena, do you think Harry was entitled to yell at a professor?" Hermione raised her eyebrows.
"Depends on what the professor did." I said diplomatically.
Hermione started to speak but Harry interrupted her, "No, I'm telling the story; Snape made several snide comments about Gryffindors, my family, Ron's family, and Hermione's hair, and I snapped, I yelled at him, earning me a detention for tomorrow night."
I shrugged, "I would have done the same thing, and I have a detention from Snape tomorrow too."
Harry looked at me in awe, "I really have found my perfect match."
I blushed, "Oh, Harry!"
Harry called me his perfect match! This day couldn't get any better! Or maybe it could, I thought as Harry swooped down to kiss me gently on the lips. It was amazing, I felt like the whole crowded corridor just melted away and it was just me and Harry. I ignored the people bumping into us, or wolf whistling. I felt Harry's tongue trace my bottom lip and I opened my mouth with compliance. Jesus, Harry was an amazing kisser.
"Harry!" Hermione nearly shouted, hitting him on the back.
"Don't ruin this for me Herm." He sighed against my lips, and then I noticed a group of people watching us silently. They were all girls, and they all looked very heartbroken.
"Dinner then?" I asked awkwardly, and we all went into the hall silently.
"So, Elena, what did you do?" Harry asked when we all got seated.
"Oh, I laughed during his lecture when I heard the rumor the girl behind me was telling her friend." I said, bursting to tell them what I heard. Four inquiring eyes rolled toward me.
"Well, according to her," I leaned forward and used my most conspiratorial voice, "Apparently this Elena girl is just a cover because Harry wants to hide his elicit affair with his best friend Ron Weasley!"
The other three teenagers laughed and Harry tried to straighten his face, "Oh, I mustn't lie anymore, Ron I love you!"
That left Ron looking horrified and Hermione and I giggling like mad, "I've already told you Harry my heart belongs to another!"
"Ron, you have shattered my heart!" Harry clutched at his chest dramatically.
Ron covered his eyes, "Oh Harry, you will always be in my heart!"
"I will never forget you!" Harry said, and he clutched his chest, falling on the floor. Playing dead.
"Come on then Juliet, get off the ground." I helped my boyfriend off the ground.
"I take that as an insult to my masculinity." Harry brushed off his robes and sat back down next to me.
"I'm sorry." I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.
He stuck his tongue out at me, "Well would you look at the time, we have a detention to attend."
"Yep." I said back at we raised from our seats, linking our arms and exiting the Great Hall.
