Winter Ball

Note: I think I'm going to say this in every chapter, I AM STILL FIXING THE GRAMMAR, PUNCTUATION, VOCABULARY, AND LITERALLY EVERYTHING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT CHAPTERS Y'ALL ARE ONE BUT I'M HOPING IT AIN'T A FREAKING MESSED UP ONE, thanks. x

"Oh, Moony, I forgot to ask, with whom are you going to the ball with tomorrow?" Clara asked Remus as they walked to Defense Against the Dark Arts. 

"Oh, well, I haven't asked anyone, yet." Remus answered quietly.

"Why not? Is there not a single person you'd like to ask?" Clara questioned him.

"Uh...no, not really." Remus replied, Clara nodded and they continued their way to the DADA classroom. 

They walked into the classroom, Remus sat beside Peter, while Clara sat beside Regulus.

"Who are you going with, Regulus?" Clara asked Regulus the second she sat down beside him.

"I'm not going with anyone." He replied.

"What? Why not?" Clara grinned. "You don't want to go alone do you?"

"Actually, I do." Regulus smirked, placing his chin on his hand.

"Your loss!" Clara giggled and looked to the front of the classroom, he laughed and nudged her and they both kept laughing. 

"Black, Potter, quiet!" The DADA Professor scolded them. "Today, our lesson is about boggarts, who can tell me what a boggart is?" The Professor asked the class. 

Claras' hand jolted up into the air, she was basically begging to answer, 

"yes Ms. Potter" the Professor said, 

"a boggart is an shape-shifter that takes on the form of its observer's worst fear. Because of their shape-shifting ability, no one knows what a Boggart looks like when it is alone, as it changes instantly upon encountering someone" she explained.

"Excellent Ms. Potter, 5 points to Gryffindor" he said, and she smiled to herself, "everybody form a line in front of this cupboard" he began, "there is a boggart in this closet, when I open it, I want the person at the front of the line to say loudly and clearly Riddikulus!" he explained. 

James was at the front of the line followed by Sirius, the cupboard door opened, and James saw his whole family dead, just laying there lifeless covered in blood, Clara was trying to push to the front of line trying to see what James feared, but Sirius and Remus were trying to push her back, they didn't want her to see herself like that, 

"riddikulus!" James shouted and they transformed into small white birds flying around.

Sirius was next *crack* the birds turned into a dead fox, but he quickly cast the riddikulus charm fast enough for only him to see it, 

"riddikulus!" he shouted, and it turned into an orange butterfly with a party hat. Remus pulled Clara in front of him, 

"go first Clara" he urged her, she nodded and stood in front of him knowing his boggart would reveal his secret. Clara was now at the front of the line, *crack* the butterfly turned into herself holding her wand in her right head, she had the dark mark, and an evil grin on her face, Clara became furious, 

"riddikulus!" she shouted with all her might and the boggart just disappeared. Everyone gasped,

"well done Ms. Potter" the Professor acknowledged, "alright class dismissed" he ushered everyone outside the class. 

The marauders were walking back to the common room talking and laughing loudly, "and then POOF ms.norris is dead" Sirius explained grinning,

"and where do you suppose are you going to learn to brew draught of the living dead?" Remus teased him,
