Chapter 12

Hermione waited outside of the potions classroom waiting with the rest of the Gryffindor and Slytherin seventh years. She had ordered something special from the apothecary for this class. She just had to make sure she sat near enough to Harry to make sure they could use it. They had been told the week before what potion they were to be working on, and with this ingredient the potion would become poisonous to a Fae.

Ron showed up, having stopped to pick Harry up from Severus' rooms. Potions was their first class of the day. Most people didn't understand how Harry and Ron got into the N.E.W.T. class, but it became apparent when they ignored Hermione and worked themselves. It had caused Severus to leave them alone more. Harry ignored Hermione as they walked up and he talked to Ron. "You'll want to laugh when you see it Ron. His hair really is bright pink. I got a little mad and changed the colour." Harry looked a little sheepish at that statement.

They set their books down on one of the empty tables and sat down. "You did what Harry? I can't believe it, and he has to come to class like it. Oh Merlin we are doomed in this lesson. He will be so mad. We'll never survive. Your mean Harry, you have him wrapped around your finger but we haven't been able to do that yet," Ron teased, even though he was still a little afraid of the man that was going to be walking into the classroom with pink hair.

Harry shrugged. "What's the big deal? He found it a bit amusing after I did it. You heard him laughing when I came from the room." Other students began to show up. Hermione was sneaking a bit; she sat right behind the two, not to be noticed. Of course, they ignored her. "Draco's the only one that doesn't want to come out. But I don't think he liked his hair. They both got me angry this morning and I turned his skin red and gold striped." Harry gave another nonchalant shrug.

Ron's eyes lit up at Harry last words. "Oh Harry please, please, please you have to let me have a little fun with Draco about his support for Gryffindor, please, Harry I never get any fun and this would be the best, I promise after I have had my fun I will apologize to him later." He practically begged his best friend for permission to joke around with his friend's mate.

Harry appeared to think about it. "I don't know Ron. You and Draco have a truce, and that's not really nice, even if you apologize. Besides, Draco's a little self-conscious about it. And I don't want him more so." He gave Ron a look that said it had to be very mild in that manner if he did. This meant he didn't want Ron getting too mean or nasty, maybe a couple said to Draco, but not to where everyone could hear. It was one of the things Harry was like. He said one thing, but his facial expressions were usually the accurate one. Hermione's eyes widened at the implication of Draco in on all of this. Harry and Ron were still ignoring her and Ron's eyes lit up at the prospect of playing with Draco.

Hermione sat back in her seat as she waited for the teacher and the rest of the students to come into the classroom. 'So that idiot Malfoy may be involved with Harry and Snape. Well with the way he is, I know he is a Veela; I could always whip something up to try and get rid of both Snape and Malfoy. I'll just have to research things a little better. This poison should help get rid of the problem in his stomach,' she thought to herself.

Draco walked into the classroom grumbling, his skin was definitely red and gold, it was striped. He looked and saw some of the students trying to hide their snickers. He walked up to where Ron and Harry sat and glared slightly at Harry. "Is there any way you would remove this at all?" Harry looked at him with the innocent green eyes and shook his head. Draco sighed and looked down a bit before looking at Harry. "You know this is highly embarrassing." Harry shrugged. He knew that Draco had pissed him off earlier and he knew that Harry would have done something when pissed.

Ron's voice went very low so only Draco and Harry could hear him. "It's nice to see that you support Gryffindor house, the house of you mate. I hope you will be cheering the Gryffindor team on when they next play a match; I believe it's against Slytherin. I know Harry will be quietly cheering on you, but you should cheer on the Gryffindor, as we will always win, even if Harry isn't on the team he laid out some brilliant plays for us." He laughed quietly making sure not to draw any attention to their table.

Draco just glared at Harry. Harry shook his head. "That's enough. Why don't you go and sit down. The teacher will be in soon." Draco gave Harry a pleading look, but Harry only shook his head. Draco growled slightly, though there was no threat behind it. He then turned and walked off. He sat only a desk space between them. Harry snickered slightly and leaned back in his chair every so slightly. He knew he would have to be standing throughout class, but for the moment he was quite content to lean back. He didn't go too far on the simple basis that the chairs didn't have backs, though he really wished they did.

Severus Snape graced the room in his usual fashion of gliding in, his robes billowing out behind him in a threatening manor. He slammed the door behind him and went to the front of the class. He swept around, causing a shiver of desire to run through Harry at the image before him. "Good morning class, today you will be brewing Vertiserum. It is one of the most complex potions you will be brewing in your final year. Be warned Mr. Potter that this could be fatal for you. If the lumbering idiots around you make a mistake, make sure you get out of my classroom," he said his silken voice doing nothing to diminish the desire Harry felt for him.

Most of the class was trying with much difficulty to not laugh at the fact that their fierce some Potions master had bright pink hair. The class got started on the potion when Severus snapped at them. "Let me get the ingredients," Ron said and walked off. Harry sighed and shook his head. It was one of the moments that he was grateful for his friend, though he got the feeling that his friend was trying to do more for Harry than was required. Hermione walked off and followed Ron to get her own ingredients, she shot Harry a contemptuous glare. She was not in a good mood, but that was nothing new of late.

Draco had sent his partner up to get the ingredients, as he wanted to keep an eye on Harry. He knew that Granger would try and cause a problem for the pregnant Fae. He felt the protectiveness that all Veela feel towards their mates. He watched as Ron went to get the ingredients and Granger following him. He saw the look on her face and shot one of his own to the bushy haired witch. He would have to keep an eye on her; she was bound to try something, no matter what Dumbledore had done to her.

Harry sighed when Ron returned and he shook his head. "I could have helped Ron." Ron gave him a look. "Yes, I heard what Professor Snape said." That was a thing about Harry and Ron; the two seemed to be able to read each others looks. It was amusing to most people. Ron set out the cauldron and Harry just opened the textbook. The pregnant Fae know that Ron would insist on making the potion to make sure that nothing happened to Harry. There were times he wished that he wasn't a Fae and at the moment, this was one of them.

Ron set down the ingredients and looked over at Harry. He could see the annoyed look on his face. He sighed. "Sorry Harry, but I don't think you want anything bad to happen to you or the mini potions masters you have there," Ron whispered as quietly as he could, trying to get Harry to understand why he didn't want Harry to do anything. "This potion could be fatal, and I don't want to lose my brother," he finished as he looked Harry in the eye.

Harry looked at Ron and gave him a smile. "Don't worry; you know I'm in a flux of emotions." He then looked down at the book. "Well, that's new; this potion doesn't take heat until half way through the potion." He was leaning over the table looking at it and motioned for Ron to put in the Armadillo bile. "That's the first thing to go in and you need to put in ten ounces." He gave Ron another smile. Ron shook his head and did as he was supposed to. He found Harry amusing, especially when he did exhibit the flip flop emotions like right at that moment. Hermione scowled behind them and Draco looked over his shoulder for a moment and saw Harry laughing quietly as Ron nearly spilled the armadillo bile; luckily it was on the side of the cauldron Harry wasn't on.

Severus watched the class with a critical eye, he was worried about Harry, and he knew that the headmaster had told Miss Ganger to leave Harry alone. He watched as Ron almost spilled the armadillo bile. It was one of the ingredients that do not react well to Fae, but in a potion it is okay. Well most of them. He watched as Harry's face lit up in laughter. It was something that always warmed Severus' heart. He looked over to Draco, who was not paying attention to his potion as he was watching Harry as well. He walked over to the young Veela and softly so only Draco would notice the tapping on his table.

Draco looked at Severus and then down sheepishly. He was worried about Harry, but even he knew it wouldn't be acceptable for him to mess up. He sighed and began to work on his potion, but Severus went back to watching Harry. They both knew it wouldn't do to have the potion explode. Hermione watched them, noticing when Ron nearly spilled the armadillo bile. She looked at her own potion and added the ingredients that needed to be added. Harry nudged Ron as it got close to the next ingredient. Ron nodded; he was still apologizing for the first ingredient. Harry shook his head and looked up at Severus and Draco, shaking his head still. He noticed the other two interacting, though the fact that they were watching him was a little annoying.

Ron added the next ingredient, a griffon's feather. Harry had cut it into smaller pieces as he was laughing at his mistake. He had saw Draco and Severus interact, and then the annoyed expression on Harry's face. "They care about you Harry, you will have to get used to it. Imagine what it would be like without them in you life. It would not be nice, so everything they do is concern for you and those that you carry. Your life would be empty without them, so if putting up with them would mean a whole and happy life, I would put up with it, wouldn't you?" He said quietly.

Harry nodded. "I know, it does get a little old though." He then looked at the potion and hummed ever so slightly. Hermione scowled. She despised every single mention of Harry's children possible. She thought they were a bane on her life and she wanted to get rid of them quite badly. She put in her ingredient, her hand squeezing her ladle. She was hoping that she could soon do something to the boy. She wanted him to pay for what he was doing to her. At that moment though, Severus was keeping his eyes directly on her and it made it impossible to do anything to Harry. Harry poked Ron in the side and pointed to the next ingredient, which was a whole truth fruit. Harry couldn't touch it since he was a Fae, it mostly wasn't a poisonous thing unless ingested, but Fae had a slight problem with touching it anyways and Harry wasn't taking any chances.

"Harry," Ron complained as he felt the poke to his side. "Oh yeah, the fruit," he said as he took the fruit and began to quarter it like he should. "You know Harry I wish you wouldn't poke me in the side like that I almost dropped the ladle into the potion, and I don't think the splash would have been good either, especially as professor Snape keeps glancing over here as usual," he whispered to his friend.

Harry scowled and whispered, "He's watching Hermione, she's right behind us." He was trying not to look over his own shoulder and watch her. Something was not right and he could feel it. The main problem was he didn't know what it was. Though he had to stop in that instant and as his body told him that he needed to go and sit down. Severus had turned away for a moment and Hermione waited until Ron looked away as well. She slipped something into the potion. Most people would have noticed it, if they hadn't been busy like they previously had been. She hadn't realized that Severus had seen every ingredient the students had and the fact that the one she put into the potion would make it volatile wasn't a part of the ingredients. Harry sighed and walked up to Severus, some people knew that the teacher was being nice to Harry, but they only thought it was because he was a Fae. "Professor, I think I need to get out of here for a moment, I think the fumes are making me dizzy." He did look a little dizzy.

"Of course Mr. Potter, I think it would be a good idea to go to the infirmary as well. Mr. Weasley will finish the potion while you are gone, Mr. Malfoy would you please escort Mr. Potter to Madam Pomfrey." A smile appeared on Severus' face, but to all others it seamed as though it was another smirk at sending the Golden Boy of Gryffindor to the Hospital wing, his least favourite place in Hogwarts, but also sending Draco Malfoy, long time enemy of said Golden Boy.

Draco nodded and removed his cauldron from the fire to make sure that it wouldn't explode. Once he was sure, he walked off with Harry, leaving the classroom behind. Ron inwardly groaned at the thought of doing the potion by himself, dragging Harry's book over, he started reading through the material. He realized it was close to the time to add the next ingredient. Looking for it, he picked it up and began grounding it like he was supposed to. He sighed as he added the ingredient, unaware that Hermione's eyes had gotten wide. She hadn't intended Ron to be the one with the impact, she had expected Harry, and instead he left with Draco Malfoy to go to the infirmary because of the fumes. It didn't take long before the potion started bubbling. Ron saw this and dived under his desk. Severus looked up from his movements in the front of the room just in time to see the entire potion explode, most of the students who had seen it coming were cowering underneath their desks.

A few of the student were unaware of the danger of the potion and was blown off their feet and onto the stone floor. Severus had cast a containment spell on the cauldron, but the blast was too strong for it and he flew across the room into the chalkboard. The table under which Ron had taken shelter caved in falling onto the red haired young man. The class was in chaos, students under the tables were not as bad off as Ron and those caught in the blast.

It was proving to not be a good day. It was a good thing he was a vampire, which made him resilient to what had just happened to him. He stood up and shook his head. He was scowling quite a bit, but ended up taking what he could to get the students taken care of. He barked orders to the students that were better off to help the ones that were injured and he used his wand to remove the table from Ron. This was not a good thing. Severus was doing the right thing. He glared at Hermione, who was okay from having backed away to another part of the classroom, but he was more worried about Ron. Glaring quite a bit, he placed him on a stretcher and stormed out, taking Ron to the hospital wing.

Hermione worried on her lower lip, the explosion should not have been that powerful, and she had watched Ron and Harry working on it so she knew that they had not added anything else into it. She began to question herself. 'Did I put to much in or did I mistake the reactions it should of caused?' She shook her head, there was no point on think about it now, she move towards the others that were still recovering from the blast and began to help, her conscience getting to her a little at causing so many innocents pain when she only what to do so to Harry.

Up in the hospital wing, Harry was sitting on a bed with Draco next to him. He was leaning into the Veela. According to the medi-witch, the potion fumes were reacting a bit, but that was normal for any pregnant person, unless they were a vampire. She figured that would be the reason that Severus hadn't thought of it. She didn't know he was with them when it came to the mates, but she knew that he could sense life and would know that Harry was pregnant. It was right at that moment that Severus came storming into the room looking quite pissed. He had Ron on the stretcher beside him; he set the boy down on the bed next to Harry's. Harry's eyes widened as he saw an unconscious Ron on the bed. He had felt something earlier when the explosion had happened, but he wasn't sure what it had been.

"Ron!" Harry shouted as he jumped off of his bed and went over to the one where his best friend lay unconscious, the medi-witch following the green eyed Fae. He looked worried as he saw a bloody gash on Ron's forehead. "What happened professor?" He asked as he looked over to his mate. He could see the anger pouring off the older wizard, Harry could feel it just as strongly, and he shivered a little. Pomfrey had begun to scan the redhead as she listened for the answer to Harry's question. Draco had also walked over and was standing behind Harry, he was worried about Ron as well, and he had begun to like the smart young man.

"The potion blew up. I saw Mr. Weasley working; there was no way it could happen, which means the potion was sabotaged. The closest person to your cauldron that could do such a thing would be Ms. Granger. Was she acting strangely?" He watched as Harry's green eyes stayed focused on Ron. The boy was greatly worried about his friend. He was kneeling next to the bed, at the end that Madam Pomfrey wasn't on. Draco kneeled next to him and wrapped his arms around Harry. Both of them knew that Severus wanted to join, but couldn't until the medi-witch left. Harry was feeling a slight bit dizzy from having jumped up so fast, but he didn't say anything.

Instead of Harry answering Severus' question Draco did. "Yes I noticed that she was watching them closely and she had an extra ingredient on her desk though I couldn't see what it was, I thought at first that she was going to do something to her potion, you know she likes to experiment a little while in class, to make sure her potion is perfect. She got up just before Harry said he was dizzy. I had to concentrate on my own potion then and didn't see where she went or what she did. Sorry I couldn't be of more help professor."

Severus nodded. Pomfrey finished her scan and cast several healing spells. "Mr. Weasley will be fine, but he may be unconscious for a bit." She then looked at them all and walked to the doors of the wing. "I'm going to go talk to the headmaster. I get the feeling this isn't a first time." She then walked, leaving Harry, Severus and Draco alone with an unconscious Ron. Harry only broke down crying finally, having put up a break front for Poppy. Severus walked around the bed and kneeled down on the other side of Harry and also hugged the young Fae. Draco rubbed Harry's back.
