Carmella had avoided the library for a couple days after Holiday was over. And Jonathon was now convinced it wasn't the girl he thought it was. Carmella knew there was something wrong with her and she thought it had to do with that potion. She had spent nights angered at herself because she drank the potion. She knew she had to get an answer somehow. And she knew she couldn't get any dark arts books without a signed paper. There was only way to get that book and that was the way the Weasleys has said how Potter had gotten a book. Lockheart.
Being a Ravenclaw, she knew Lockheart was one a long time ago. So she had an idea of how to get it in a slightly less devious way. She smiled as she entered his classroom.
"Hello Professor!" she said sweetly.
"Ah! Miss…..erm Carmen."
"Carmella, sir. I have a request to ask of you."
"Indulge me."
"Well, you see I want to do an extra credit essay on one of your books and how accurately it correlates with a book in the restricted section. My father told me about it and I want to prove how excellent you are."
"Now now! I thank you and I love that you want to do more work for my class! And I love helping my students. So what can I help you with?"
"Oh, can you sign this paper saying I can look at the book?"
"Hmmm, I don't see an issue with that! If you like I can tell you more about what happened in those books! And I can give you an autographed picture!"
"That's not necessary, sir. But thank you!" she grabbed the paper he scribbled his name on.
She ran up to the library and managed to get into the Restricted section. She looked through all the books and saw a book that was enormous and all about potions. She sighed and flipped through the pages.
Months passed by and school had began to come to a close. She had spent so much time in the library she had barely seen the sun. She hadn't had a lot of issues with Snape that year and began to think the potion was wearing off. She wanted so badly for it to be gone that she now believed it was practically gone. She stopped her search and began to spend more time outside with her fellow students.
Jonathon began to seek refuge in the library but felt even more lonely in there with the girl he never really knew. And he wanted to know her but didn't think that he would ever see her, even though he hadn't seen her before.
For some reason, Carmella decided to ride alone on the train home. Well she would have if a Gryffindor boy hadn't just sat down across her. She decided to ignore him the entire ride. Jonathon realized it wasn't her so he left the compartment right after she had fallen asleep.
