It had only been a few days since the poacher camps quest I had done for Professor Weasley, but the last camp was all I seemed to think about. I was furious at first. Furious about the task. Furious about my fight with Sebastian.
But everything changed. Sebastian came back. He saved me moments from a troll club pulverizing me. It was completely unexpected.
As much as I could not stand Sebastian Sallow, I couldn't just sit back and ignore what he had done. He saved my life. I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for him. I stayed up that night, lying on the top bunk and staring up at the ceiling. I was struggling with feelings I had no idea what to do with.
On one hand, I hated Sebastian. He was irritating beyond belief and never ceased to annoy me. But on the other hand, he came back. Sure, he stormed off at first but he came back. And perhaps he came back only to save himself since Weasley had some kind of threat over his head. But he didn't need to save me. He could've come back, let the troll club hit me, finished them off, and claimed the hero title for himself.
I was sitting at the Ravenclaw table in the great hall that following Saturday morning, staring at my plate of eggs and sausage when I heard a familiar voice.
"You know, the food isn't magical. It's not going to do some trick if you just keep staring at it." Garreth said as he walked over to the table. I looked up to see him smiling down at me.
"What are you doing at my table, Garreth?" I questioned. He smirked and pulled a small bottle out of his pocket.
"I finished it. Fizzing Whizz-beer. Only took several attempts but it's finally done. And as promised, here is a bottle for you to try." Garreth handed over the small bottle. There was a tag attached to the lid with my name on it.
"Should I be nervous?" I asked as I twisted the lid of the bottle. Garreth sat across from me and chuckled.
"Not at all. I've taste-tested several myself and no side effects. I promise."
Garreth leaned forward, his arms crossed in front of him on the table as he excitedly watched me put the bottle up to my nose. It smelt sweet with a hint of some kind of fruity smell to it.
I put the bottle up to my lips and took one small sip. The liquid went down smoothly, surprisingly tasting good. I suddenly felt myself float just a few inches off the bench I was sitting on.
