Half Blood (Closed)

He smiled. He then checked over the test grade she gave, and. Necked over the test himself. She had gotten it perfectly right! "My my Emily, you sure are very good at memorization! But that won't make you good at potions! To be good at potions, you have to be able to know when to change one thing in the recipe or the way it is prepared to make it better." He then thought about what to do next.
 
She listened to him and that kind of worried her "I never said I was perfect Severus, perhaps on the side you can help me out? I know your busy with class, grading. But maybe an hour every night we can go over it. I am always willing to learn, you know me I eat it up" She said happily and sighed a bit. She never once would ever think she was the best thing. Because she knew that she was far from perfect, and she really did like to be the student sometimes.
 
"Well, you are true. You aren't perfect. But to me, you are the closest thing to it." he blushed. However, Severus still hadn't thought hat to do next! She had learned everything so fast, there was oohing left to teach about the class! But he then remembered that he hadn't given her the class tour! "Emily, would you like a tour of the class?" he asked her politely.
 
She loved how he blushed it was very cute and before she knew it he suggested a class tour, she stood up right on her feet and grinned. "Yes sounds good, give me a tour Professor" She said kindly. She would give him pet names, call him by his first name. But when it came to students, she could turn into all business very quickly and not make a mistake.
 
"Okay, here's the tour! You see where we are standing?" he motioned to the the table where a bunch of potion ingredients were. "That table is where I Mae demonstrations fr potions. Then, that dek in front of the chalkboard s my desk, and that closet all the way over there" he pointed at the end of the classroom, "is where I keep extra copies of textbooks. The potion ingredients are in a closet in a se ret place only Albus and I know."
 
She listened to him and smiled when he told her where the ingredients were "Well you, Albus now me. But I'll keep it secret" She said happily, crossing her arms. "I figured you would have your own store of ingredients and I was right" She said happily. "I'm a bit nervous about this, but also very excited.
 
"Well, let me show you the store of ingredients." Tey eft the room, walking down the all, until they came to the third door on the right. It was magically locked, and could only be opened byneopleknowing the password. Severus walked up to the door, and secretly whispbered something, and the door opened. I will tell you the password back in the classroom. Less chance of being heard."
 
She walked beside him and smiled happily at him and nodded, when he whispered the password she walked in with him. But when she saw everything that he had in there, he was surprised by it all. Her eyes light up almost like a child at Christmas, she looked at Severus. "Wow Now I understand why you have to password protect this room"
 
He smiled. "You are right. Many people would want to get their hands on these ingredients, but the password prevents at. But, we have still had some stealings. For instance, two years ago, all the ingredients required for Polyjuice Potion was stolen. We still haven't figured out he did steal it, but I think Potter did." They walked into Severus ' classroom, and he then brought Emily close to him, bringing his mouth close to her ear. "The password is butterscotch" he whispered quietly.
 
She nodded looking at him listing to what he said, and when he told her the password she smiled. "Really that's the password?" She said with a big smile on her face. "My favorite" but she put her finger to her lips, showing she would never tell anyone or mention it again. Resting her hand on his back for a moment, looking into his eyes for a brief moment. "So how long before we start teaching? Since I don't know how long your holidays are for"
 
"Well, summer break ends on Spetember 15th, but the classes begin the next day. So, September 16th classes will start." he answered her. He smiled when she said butterscotch was her favorite. "I personally like caramel over buttrscotch" he said jokingly.
 
She smiled at him kindly and laughed at him "Sounds good" She said happily and patted him on the shoulder. "Your sweet you know that" She giggled. "I think we will do a lot of wonderful things together, teach your students, get married and have children" She said. "Sounds like a beautiful thing for us" She said very happily.
 
"Speaking of our marriage, have you figured out a date? I think it should be some time during the winter holidays. That way, if we leave to get married, it will seem we left for the holidays. What do you think?" he asked. He was also beginning to wonder what connection she had to the priest who was going to wed them.
 
She thought about it "Yeah I was thinking about when we should do it, but your suggestion sounds good. That way we can get married quietly" Looking at him she smiled. 'Let me guess, your trying to figure out how I know the priest who will marry us?" She took his hand. "Originally I met him in America in L.A he was over on holiday and my parents introduced me at a very young age, was about three months before my parents death"
 
"Well then, winter holidays it is!" he smiled. He then continued thinking about what they should do next. "Emily, you have accomplished everything I needed to teach you. There is nothing left to do." He then checked the time. "Emily, we should be going down for breakfast! We will be late again!" He grabbed her arm and ran to the feasting hall.
 
She smiled at him and chuckled, taking his hand as they quickly go to the hall for breakfast. She sat down beside Severus and stayed quiet, she didn't know any of the professors accept Severus. And if they wanted to get to know her? She didn't know what stupid shit would come out of her mouth. But she smiled at Hagrid, the big guy was sweet and she had never met a half giant before. She sipped her drink silently, willing to ask any questions if anyone had any.
 
When they sat down, Severus immediately apologized for being late. "I am sorry, but I was just showing Emily my classroom and teaching her the skills necessary for the class." he informed everyone. When they all forgave him, he filled his plate with eggs, bacon, toast, and scooped some jam. He also buttered his toast, and spread jam on it. Once he finished, he started a conversation. "Hagrid, how are your animals? As the teacher of care for magical creatures, I hope all your animals are health." he asked.
 
She blushed when she to apologized she began to eat some of the eggs that was on her plate. But then heard about the magical animals, and she was instantly interested. "Animals?" She said with a big smile on her face. "What kind of animals do you take care of Hagrid?" She asked hoping it was a topic not off limits.
 
"Well, I used ter have a hipper griff, but it ran away. I have some Flobberworms, fire crabs, unicorns, thestrals, and some blast ended skrewts. The skrewts, will be used in this years triwizard tournament." he told Emily. Severus knew that skrewts were an illegal species, bu Hagrid always had illegal species with him, soit didn't bother him.
 
She smiled "I'll be and here I thought Unicorns were just in stories, I guess I Have a lot to learn on what there is around here. Severus told me about your hipper griff, I actually know where he is" She said with a kind smile on her face. She had her own little secrets "And I can help you get him back, if he wont cause a fuss. Since I don't want to over step my bounds?"
 
Severus was listening intently. He quickly did a spell allowing him to communicate with Emily telepathically. Emily, Sirius Black has his hipper griff! You can't bring it back! End the conversation! he yelled to Emily in her head. He hoped she would hear him. If she didn't, he would get in the middle of some big trouble.
 
She heard something in her head and heard what Severus said and looked at him, and nodded more to herself. "Though I probably heard about a bird since they have been doing a lot of cross species lately" She shrugged and kept eating. She felt really uncomfortable at the moment.
 
Severus was glad that she heard him. Both of them had just avoided being in some deep shit. "Well, enough about hippogriffs. What about the Triwizard Tournement? Why bring it back after centuries of not doing it? Did they change some rules? Fill us in Albus." he inquired.
 
She crossed one leg over the other and sat back a bit, she lost her appetite and thought for a moment. "Ive heard of the Triwizard Tournament but Ive always wanted to go to it, I'm glad I will be able to see it for the first time" She said with a kind look on her face.
 
Albus stood up. "There are new rules to the tournament sSeverus. The most important rule is this. You must be 27 or older to put your name in the Goblet of Fire. I will create a magic circle to prevent underage wizards to enter it. And, once you put your name in, you can't take it out, and if you are chosen, you must play. They brought it back because they wanted to keep the ancient tradition consistent. This will probably be the only Triwizard Tournament for several centuries. As you all know, there will be three tasks, three wizards or witchs chosen, one for each school, and they will compete. Winner gets 1,000 galleons, and the Triwizard Cup." Albus sat back down.
