"REGULUS ARCTURUS BLACK"

To my dismay, she was in practically every single one of my classes.

We made it to Wednesday, and I had just walked into my Alchemy class, hoping to catch a break from her.

We had double Transfiguration just before this, during which McGonagall had us working in pairs to transform chess pawns into queens.

Evan talked my ear off the whole time about Maria, how they got paired up in their Magizoology class, how well they apparently work together and how I had yet to acquire the much-needed Herbology notes, that Evan already had.

He refused to give them to me.

He said I either ask Carina for them or I fail Herbology.

Our double Herbology class is on Friday, meaning I still have time to acquire those damn notes and I absolutely refuse to ask her for them. I will get them from someone else, one way or another.

According to Evan, she plans on becoming a healer. What business would a potential future healer have in an Alchemy class? Absolutely none right? I could finally catch a break from her and maybe even ask Parkin—

"Ah, Ms. Toussaint, you made it just in time! Take any empty seat!" Professor Slughorn announced.

I couldn't care less about whoever had walked in. Some of the people in this school, no, scratch that, most of the people in this school, get on my goddamn nerves.

What was I thinking about before?

Oh, right, Parkinson, I'm sure she has the notes from Herbology. I'll have to find her sometime today and ask to borrow them otherwise I will in fact fail Herbol—

The stool next to me screeched against the tiles of the dungeon floors. Turning my head in its direction,

"For fucks sake." I muttered under my breath.

Of course it was her. Great, it's like I'm cursed.

I've spent 5 long years in this fucking school never having to see her face and now all of sudden she's everywhere?

Now that I think about it, I can't seem to recall ever seeing her around. Why is it that only now I've become so hyperaware of her pathetic existence?

Maybe she's just become obsessed with me after our first little meeting at the library. I've got to say, watching her get all flustered was rather amusing.

"Welcome to Alchemy! Now, we will be getting straight into the lesson, lots to learn! We will start by going over the four basic elements, exploring their properties and so on. Do take notes on this, for I will be setting an assignment for..." Professor Slughorn began explaining.
