A/n Hey thanks so much for the reviews.
I'm gonna try and incorporate your ideas and write less dialogue more people but it might be slow that's sorta my style of writing.
Also in this chapter I begin to refer to Ron as weasel and Hermione as Granger.
Deathus I just wanted to say you weren't being negative Sorry if that's what you thought but it wasn't directed at you. If you want to pm me with whats confusing you and I will try and answer your questions.

Chapter 4
Potion class
Draco and I continued to the dungeon before being joined by Blaise and Theo who had acquired the needed mark for potions.
"This is going to be interesting." I smiled as we entered.
The dungeon was as gloomy as ever but didn't hold the same fear-provoking atmosphere that it had every other year.
Being in Slytherin really changed how you perceive a room.
A small group of Gryffindor filed into the room a few minutes before class was due to begin.
"I can't believe Dumbledore is forcing me to take this class with that stupid greasy git." Ron called not bothering to keep his voice down.
"Ron, keep your voice down." Granger hissed.
"Why should I. its not like they can do anything." He called gesturing to us.
I felt my anger rise.
First that stupid weasel insults my father and then my friends. How dare he.
"How was I ever friends with such an idiot?" I muttered to Draco.
He let out a snicker and looked at Weasel.
"What the hell are you laughing at you stupid death eater?" Weasel yelled.
"Mr Weasley 50 points from Gryffindor and detention with filch." Snape called as he swept into the classroom.
"That's not fair." Granger called jumping to the defence of Weasel.
"Life's not fair." I called not really paying attention to the conversation.
"Stay the hell out of this Potter." Weasel returned.
"I'm must concur with Ms Potter. Life is not fair. Now stop our moronic complaining and allow me to continue with my lesson." Snape snarled.
I felt a smile split across my face.
Being in Slytherin defiantly had its advantages.
Weasel was about to open his mouth but a glare from Snape shut him up.
"The instructions are on the bores begin." He said and with the wave of his wand instructions appeared on the board.
I felt my brow crease as I stared at the words.
They were always tiny and barely legible but now I could read them as if they were right in front of me.
I shrugged my shoulders and lit the flame while Draco Collected the ingredients.
"I never knew you were good at potions." Draco commented near the end of the lesson.
"It helps when you have a competent partner and don't have people throwing things in your cauldron." I smiled as the potion changed to the correct colour signalling the completion of the potion.
"Yeah I guess all that would help. Come on lets bottle this up."
We quickly placed the vial of completed potion on Snape's desk before returning to our own desks.
I looked up and watched as Snape analysed our potion.
I felt my heart race increase.
'What if I did something wrong? What if I ruined Draco's potion?'
"ha-Potter Come here." Snape called out.
I felt my heart jump up and down in my chest threatening to burst from my chest as I shakily walked forward.
The Gryffindor's baring weasel and granger gave we sympathetic looks.
Weasel and granger just looked smug.
"No matter what house you're in you will always be an idiot." Granger called.
"Ms granger 50 points from Gryffindor and detention tomorrow night with filch." Snape called.
I continued to the front desk until I stood in front of me.
"Would you care to explain to me why you have never shown this much promise in my class before?" He asked.
"I'm sorry?" I asked feeling my heart rate slowly lower.
"I watched you and Draco make this and it is perfect why did you insist on acting incompetent in my class?"
"I was expected to be terrible in everything but defence." I whispered, ashamed by my past behaviour.
"I expect my slytherin's to perform to the best of their ability. You receive an Outstanding for the potion you may go." He said a glint of pride in his eyes.
"Thank you sir." I said smiling.
As I past the table weasel and granger where sitting at I allowed a smug look of my own to take up residents on my face.
"Don't expect to hold the top place in your classes anymore." I called to granger before returning to my desk.
"Congratulations on the first of many Outstanding" Draco Smiled.
"Thanks we should get started on the homework."
"Be careful people might mistake you for a dedicated and hardworking student." Draco teased.
In return I hit him in the shoulder before beginning my essay.
By the time I was half way through it Snape stood.
"Class is over Bottle you're potions and Place them on the desk." He called making his voice echo around the room.
A/n ha-ha finally I finished it sorry for the wait I had so many assignments to do. I'm going to try and update weekly but don't hold me to that.
Hope you like it.
As always reviews appreciated.
Till Next update.
