I sighted and leaned back in my chair. That looked like a complicated potion that required lot's of work and I didn't feel like working at all. Sadly, Marlene was really nerdy or really wanted to win that potion, because she glared at me when she came back with all the ingredients and then told me in a tone that wasn't as nice anymore: "Get your ass to work, Pettigrew. I want to win that fucking potion. Go. Now!"
I sighted again and together with her I started following the steps to brew this damn potion. Maybe it wasn't so good after all to work with a nerd. But then I looked over to Sirius and saw that the girl, even though she was really pretty, had no clue of potions what so ever. She didn't even want to touch any of the ingredients and so Sirius had to do everything alone. When he caught me staring at him and the girl, he formed the word 'Jealous?' with his mouth, but I just put one finger in the air and got back to work.

"I am done!", a voice came from the back of the class.
Almost an hour had passed now and it smelled like burned kettles, asphodel and foul eggs in the classroom. Smoke wafted through the room and Sirius' partner didn't look as good anymore, because her hair became all fizzy and dirty from making the potion, even though she didn't even do much. Most of the students sweated due to the heat of the fires and everyone looked exhausted and desperate, because no one got even close to the pale pink color described in the book.
"Mister Snape, let me see, let me see!", Slughorn said excitedly and walked over to the back of the class, where Severus Snape sat all alone on one desk. All the students were curious now and gathered around Snape's kettle. It did actually have the right color and when Slughorn dropped a leaf into the liquid, it instantly burned.
"Merlin's beard! You did it, it is perfect! One drop of this could kill us all. Perfect, I am very impressed. Ten points to Slytherin.", Slughorn said and I could have sworn that there was a smile that made it's way to Snape's lips before he looked serious and at the same time sad and angry again.
"You will receive the lucky potion, of course. Come with me to the front, Mister Snape.", the old potion master squealed excitedly and lead Snape to the front. I could see that many of the students gave him a jealous look, because they all wanted the potion as well. Many were probably going to ask him for a drop later, even if they weren't his friends.
"I don't even need that stupid potion.", I heard Sirius saying to the blonde girl. "I have my great looks and personality. And I am a great kisser. Oh, and you, beautiful, don't need the potion as well, because you already are lucky and of course gorgeous. Would you like to go on a date with me?", he asked and the girl giggled.
I remembered that he called me beautiful before this class and to see that he used it on another girl made me feel a dragging pain in my heart.
Fri- 5. September 1977
It was a beautiful Friday afternoon and so Remus and I decided to walk to the black lake and watch the giant squid while doing our homework for Transfiguration and Herbology, two subjects that we had together. To become a Healer I had to get 'O' or 'E' at Transfiguration, Herbology, DADA, Potions and Charms. And since Remus was the smartest student I was friends with, I decided to study with him. That and the fact that I really loved spending time with him. He was always reserved and quiet around other people, because he didn't want to get anyone close to him. He was too afraid that they would find out his secret and that he might hurt them. But with Aya, the Marauders and me he could be himself and sometimes he even stopped worrying about the full moon.
He was the nicest guy I've ever met, always reassuring me that I did great in my classes and that I would be a good healer, cheered me up when I was down or sad and he could always make me laugh even when I didn't feel like it.
"This is such a beautiful day.", Remus stated as we sat down in the grass and took our books out. He was right, this day couldn't have been any better. The lake was totally flat, only a few waves, made by small breezes, appeared sometimes and it sparkled because the sun was shining on it. The sun itself just started turning more orange than yellow as it was beginning to set and the trees of the forbidden forrest rocked lightly in the wind. Many couples sat next to the lake for some snogging-sessions and I had to admit that this was quite the romantic place.
"Yeah, it is beautiful.", I said in a dreamy voice and looked at all the couples laughing, hugging or kissing. I was a bit jealous of them, sometimes I really wished to have a boyfriend. But I also loved to flirt and go on dates, so I guess a boyfriend wouldn't be too good for me.
"Oh, look! There is padfood.", Remus said and pointed at two people who were literally eating each others faces. The girl that he was kissing was blonde and I bet that it was the girl from potions. She had been flirting with Sirius a lot and he had flirted back as well. Maybe this was their so-called date that he had promised her.
"How long do you think he will keep her?", Remus asked smirking and turned his head back to me. I laughed: "Oh, I think he'll sleep with her on Saturday or sunday and then, he'll act like he doesn't know her on Monday."
"Really? Do you think she is that easy?", Remus asked and looked to the two people again, who had stopped kissing now and looked over to us as well. Sirius waved at us and put his thumb up, then he turned back to the girl and kissed her again. Remus laughed and then shook his head: "Okay I guess you are right."
"I know I am. Now, let's get to the homework, I'll have to puke if I watch them any longer.", I said and turned our textbook for herbology -'Flash eating trees of the world'- to page twelve.
"I really like this subject.", I said as I began writing my essay about self-fertilising shrubs. "At least it is helpful and exciting, unlike stupid lessons like History of Magic!"
"History of Magic is important, and I also find it interesting.", Remus defended the subject, but I just chuckled: "Well I guess you are the only one in Hogwarts then. Even Professor Binns died of boredom."
"Well at least he doesn't attack you with his spices or acid or leaves.", Remus replied, but I just rolled my eyes and looked at him: "Don't tell me that you are really trying to win with History of Magic against Herbology! Transfiguration, okay. Charms, defenetly. DADA, of course. But History of Magic?"
Remus laughed and held both his hands in the air: "Okay, okay. You win. I give up." I smiled: "I know. But now the important stuff: Who do you fancy?"
Now it was Remus' turn to roll his eyes. He hated it when I asked him about that and he always gave me the same answer, just like he said it now: "Scar, I've told you a thousand times now. I can't date any girl, that would be way too dangerous for her."
"But how about Aya? She already knows your secret and she is a great girl! You should totally ask her out, I know that you would be the most amazing couple.", I suggested excitedly, but Remus shook his head.
"Please just stop asking me about girls, okay Scar? You can tell me all your problems, I am always here for you whatever you need, but that is the one thing I really don't want to talk about.", he said and I could tell by the tone of his voice that he really meant it and so I stopped asking and silently continued writing my essay.
"I didn't mean that we shouldn't talk at all!", Remus interrupted the silence after five minutes and I looked up from my pell to smile at him. "I know but I am trying to do my homework and I can't talk while I write this.", I told him and he laughed.
"I thought that woman are able to two things at once.", he mocked me and I pouted: "We are, just not doing this homework and taking. Or at least I can't do that. Maybe Sirius little girl can do that, but I highly doubt that. Oh, maybe Marlene can do that. She is really smart."
"Marlene is the best friend of Lily right?", Remus asked and I nodded my head. "Yeah, she sit's next to me in potions and she is really good for me, because she makes me work even though I hate that stupid subject."
Suddenly, a person behind me tapped on my shoulder and then just sat down next to me. It was a Hufflepuffgirl with blonde hair, green eyes and pale skin. She wore a strange hat and everyone in school knew her as 'crazy pants', because she claimed that she had the Second Sight.
"I tell you that you two will kiss in the future, I know it.", she said in a raspy deep voice that didn't fit her strange, but girly appearance at all. Remus blushed a little and shook his head, but I just chuckled. It was pretty easy to go to a lawn full of couples who were kissing and then tell a boy and a girl that they would kiss in the future.
"Uhm, yeah. I really appreciate your futuristic fortunetelling thing that you have there, but Remus and I are only friends. Oh, and speaking of friends, how about you just go over to yours?", I said coldly, and I got a punch from Remus after. "Ow!", I said and angrily looked at him, but he looked like he tried to tell me something. Then he looked to the girl, who was just looking at the clouds and mumbling something that I didn't understand.
"Be nice to her, she doesn't really have friends!", he whispered when he made sure that the girl didn't listen. I rolled my eyes and whispered: "Fine, but just for you." Then I tapped the girl on the shoulder.
"Hey, I'm Katherine by the way, what is your name?", I asked, but inwardly hated myself for being so nice to her. There was a reason that people called her crazy pants.
"I am Sybill Patricia Trelawney, and I am the great-great-granddaughter of the Cassandra Trelawney.", she said proudly and smiled at us. "Would you like some sweets?", she asked then and took a box full of 'Berty
