PHC for Emerson by Bowtruckle I looked at the new note that had been pinned onto the common room notice board and grimaced. “What’s wrong?” Lily asked me when she saw the look on my face as I turned back to her. “Look at this,” I groaned, “Slughorn has made up new Potions work pairs, I’ve been put with Sirius... and you’ve been paired with James.” “Not if I have anything to do with it. Come on, let’s go see him before breakfast and get it changed. I actually want to pass my Potions O.W.L and if I have to work with Potter, it will not end well... for him that is.” She told me, the frustration she was feeling was clear on her face. We picked up our bags and headed down to the Great Hall to sort this out. A few minutes later we marched up to the Professor’s table, Slughorn looked at us with a surprised look on his face. “Why would you pair us with those two idiots?” Lily demanded. “I’m sorry, Miss Evans, but I’m not sure what you’re talking about.” “Your new Potions class pairings.” I told him. “I’m still not sure what you mean? You should know full well that I let my students choose their own partners in their O.W.L year.” He replied. Both our faces fell as we realised what must have happened. “Sorry, Professor. Potter and Black are having us on again. I swear... one of these days I’m going to kill him.” I said. “Now, now, I’m sure those two boys were just having some fun. Off you go and I’ll see you in class after breakfast.” Slughorn told us. As we sat at the table I looked around and realised that neither boy was there. “I’m going to find Sirius and give him a piece of my mind. They went too far this time. I’ll see you in class.” I told Lily angrily. “Good luck with that.” Lily told me. I walked back up the Grand Staircase toward the Gryffindor tower, but before I got very far I heard the group of boys laughing about something down a corridor on the fourth floor. “Black, Potter, you better have a good explanation for this.” I told them coldly when I caught up to them. The four boys looked at each other, Sirius grinned at James. “You better let me handle this one, Prongs. Emerson looks mad this morning.” Sirius laughed. “Righto, we’ll see you later.” James grinned back at him, then he motioned to Remus and Peter and the three of them continued down the hall. “What sort of-“ I started to yell at him, but I’m cut off when he kissed me full on the lips. “Idiot prank-“ I continued, as I pushed him off me. But he kissed me again, this time wrapping his arms around me. “Was that?” I finally manage to whisper many minutes later when we stopped kissing. “A pretty good one, I think. It got you to come looking for me, didn’t it?” He murmured into my ear as he started to kiss my neck. The goose bumps on my neck where his lips touched my skin and the shivers that ran down my back stopped me from being able to respond. “You wouldn’t be speechless would you, Emerson?” He said with a look of mock surprise on his face. “Shut up and kiss me again, you idiot.” I whispered hoarsely as I pulled him closer to me again. “Sounds good, Emer-“
