I mutter darkly in exasperation as for the thrid time in as many minutes, the potion I had been patiently working on rapidly congealed into a purple lump in the bottom of the cauldron.
I was failing potions.
And not just that, it was embarassing how bad I was at potions.
I wave my wand impatiently, mumbling 'scourgify' so that the contents disappeared and I could start trying to tutor myself at potions all over again.

"That doesn't really make me feel better." I smile weakly. "I feel bad for you too now. And I'm not a bloody genius. Not at potions anyway."

I laugh. "Molly, I don't think I put the beetles in at the right ti-..."
The cauldron in front of me let out a deafening bang and thick black smoke billowed out from the cauldron.
"No, definitely not." I say, trying to wipe sott off my face and out of my hair.

I watch her trying not to laugh and then laughing anyway.
I start to laugh at as well.
"It's not funny you know." I snort, dusting the soot out of my hair.

I'm just sitting in potions minding my own business when suddenly i hear a loud bang behind me so i turn to see what happened. A boy blew up his potion and was laughing about it. "are you ok" i ask him trying not to laugh at the fact that he is covered in soot.

"Thanks Serry." I smile, wrinkling my nose which was stiff and caked with dirt. "And I didn't get angry at it, I'm just an idiot and made it wrong and then it blew up and-...that's about it. I'm failing potions."

I loved going to potions class. Well my potions class. I got to be by myself when I'm supposed to be in 'advanced potions' with slytherins. But I begged the professor to let me in another class because I was 'scared' of the Slytherins. I smiled and took my seat next to his office. I had the ingedients for a potion, I think it was something compicated. I was on my way of business when I hear an explosion. I laugh, but don't look up.
