The first month of school was mostly theory of each subject except Potions, that was more self study and follow instructions. My favorite is definitely Charms and Potions. They are more relatable to what I can do. On more than one occasion I was told I was a lot like Lilly Potter. Apparently she didn't grow to like many Gryffindors until her later years. Ronald Weasley is turning into a stalker. He reminds me of how Dudley used to be in the movies. Finally I scheduled a meeting with Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall.
"Miss Potter I understand that you asked for this meeting so please begin." Professor Flitwick said
"Professors I asked for you both because my problem is with a Gryffindor student. Ronald Weasley had been following me around claiming he is my best friend. Now this may seem minor but the issue has escalated to Ronald claiming he has the right to dictate who I am friends with. He is an outright bully to my Slytherin friends, calls my Hufflepuff friends names, and even my Gryffindor friend has to deal with Ron trying to stake claims on me. Poor Hermione has been brought to tears because she was offering him tips in Charms today. She is still in the bathroom crying. I do not know this Ronald Weasley and after his actions I do not wish to know him. Actions speak louder than words. His actions makes him a bully. I am now formally asking for your interventation." I ranted
The look on the faces of the Professors was comical. Professor McGonagall did not like what I had to say but Professor Flitwick looked annoyed.
"I apologize that you had to deal with this, Miss Potter but rest assured that we will be talking with Mr. Weasley. Bullying nor hassment should be encouraged." Professor Flitwick said
"Surely if you would discuss things with Mr. Weasley then things could be worked out even a friendship may come out of this." Professor McGonagall said
"I'm sorry, Professor, but there will not be any friendships with a bully who refuses to change his ways." I said
Professor Flitwick dismissed me and I went to my next class Herbology. We were learning about Devil Snare. We had the class with Gryffindors and I always sat with Neville away from Ronald. Neville loves plants. I wanted to encourage Neville to become an Herbologist. I was cracking Neville's nervous shell by being a good friend. It was really all he needed. His grandmother apparently had this idea that he should be the exact replica of his father but she forgot he has his mother in him as well. After Herbology was flying lessons. Dumbledore intervened in the lesson plans and switched certain students around. He called it an attempt to promote friendships in all houses. I was in the same class with Gryffindors and Slytherins. Ronald Weasley tried to make his way closer to me but Neville put me in the only spot next to him. Ronald's face went red as he was forced to stand next to a Slytherin. Madame Hooch was instructing us on how to handle our brooms but Neville was a nervous wreck. We finally came to the kick off the ground part and Neville flew into the air.
"Mr. Longbottom not so fast." Madame Hooch said trying to grab his foot
Others called for Neville to come down and Neville was trying. I jumped on my broom when Neville went zooming through the air. I followed underneath Neville waiting for him to drop off the broom. When Neville came off the broom I was ready. I had my wand out and followed Neville.
"Arresto Momentum!" I shouted
Neville landed softly on the back of my broom but his Memoryball was still falling quickly to the ground
"Hold on Neville!" I called back
I nose dived after the Rememball. We descended quickly.
50 feet til the ground...
40...
30...
20...
10...
5...
I caught the ball and pulled up to just barely scrap my toes against the grass and went straight up into the air. I pulled off a beautiful Wronski Feint. Suddenly I could hear cheering I got Neville and myself back to Madame Hooch. If Neville had anymore upper muscle strength my ribs would be dust. We hopped off the broom which disintegrated once we were off it. Madame Hooch was right there and seemed to be vibrating but trying not to smile.
"I have never seen such reckless behavior from a first year in all my years. That being said all you would have had to tell me, Miss Potter, is that you knew how to fly properly and I would have gladly exempted you from the class with the others who truly know how." Madame Hooch said
Professor Flitwick had come out with the Captain of the Hogwarts Quidditch team because I was flying right outside their window. Professor McGonagall saw me as she was walking pass the class so ran out when I dived after the Remembrall.
"That was the first time I've ever flown on a broom." I said shyly
Everyone, the staff and the students, stared at me like I grew a second head. I giggled until I saw Neville looked a little grey.
"Can I take Neville to the Infirmary he doesn't look so good?" I asked
The Professors looked at Neville. He looked ready to pass out. Neville and I were escorted to Madame Pomphrey who began to fuss over Neville as he began to hyperventilate. Professor Flitwick led me over to a bed for me to be checked over as well just in case.
"Have you ever considered playing for the House Quidditch team Miss Potter?" Professor Flitwick asked
"I know nothing about Quidditch, Professor, but surely it would interrupt my delicate schedule as a first year." I said with a mock thoughtfulness
3rd POV
Professor Flitwick could immediately see a scheme getting started. Roger Davies, the Ravenclaw captain, desperately wanted Miss Potter on the team.
"What will it take to get you to consider being on the team?" Roger asked
"Well my schooling could be affected so I would need notes and corrected assignments from all years on the team." Miss Potter said
"Done." Roger said
"I would need tutoring plus any old school books to go along with the notes."
"Done. I'll tutor you myself."
"Then as long as my grades don't suffer I will gladly be on the Quidditch team."
Roger began jumping around and hugged Miss Potter before rushing out to get her demands and make a tutoring schedule.
"Beautifully done, Miss Potter. You would make a goblin proud with your trade skills." Professor Flitwick said
"Thanks, Professor." Miss Potter said before skipping over to Neville's side and chatting with him
Professor Flitwick left to go to teach his next class thinking 'she will make this year very interesting.'
