She\'d Never Tell

I began 6th year as I had any other year, ready to hit the books and get back to the spells. I wasn't nervous, I hurried to the great hall, I was so excited, I was glad to be back at Hogwarts. I ran into a few of my friends that I hadn't seen all summer, then went to the great hall for the sorting ceremony, it was the best part of the school year. Once the sorting hat made it's decisions, and dinner was done we headed off to our dorms, I was happy to be back in Hufflepuff dorms. I looked over my classes which would start the next morning, My classes consisted of Astronomy, Charms, Herbology, Muggle studies, Potions, Transfiguration, History of magic, and Defense against the dark Arts., I had my work cut out of me, from what Fleur said theres a new DADA teacher and he's younger than most. We'll find out tomorrow. I went to bed, and headed to the first class the next day, I was excited to see who this new teacher was, I thought he was ugly looking, Fleur just laughed at me. The first day went great, As I was walking back to the dorms before dinner, I bumped into someone, I looked up, It was Professor Lupin, He helped me pick up my books, and sent me on my way. I got into the school routine, heading to DADA class, I got caught up in a conversation with Professor Sprout, I was late to class. Professor Lupin wasn't happy, and told me I needed to see him after class, He gave me 2 months detention, It would of only been one, but I had to plead for my freedom, the more I cried to get out of detention the longer it became.

I walked back to the dorms, I knew I was gonna be sick, I missed the rest of my classes, and skipped out on dinner. I feared going to class, I even talked to Professor Sprout about it. I feared being late and facing his anger again, so I was always 5 minutes early for class. Sprout told me that She couldn't get me out of detention, but I had to face the fear, attend class, and not skip out on Detention. I noticed he was a lot kinder than he seemed in class. 2 weeks into my detention, he became more talkative, We had a few good conversations.

A few weeks later I was called into Dumbledore's office, He explained that Professor Lupin had spoke with him about me disobeying his no talking rule during detention, and because of that I would be in detention until the end of the school term. I held my anger in, I said you're kidding right? Dumbledore said I'm sorry, but He handles the punishments for his detention hours. I stormed out of the room, and smacked into Fleur in the corridor. I had tears in my eyes, she said whats wrong? I shook my head and walked away, I decided that night I was gonna get even, I was gonna be slient through the 2 hour detention, which is what I started out doing. I walked into the room, he looked up at me from the desk, I looked at the floor, he knew that I knew, and he knew I was upset. I sat down on the left side of the room, and pulled out my school lessons, an hour into the detention, I noticed him moving desks, I watched him for a minute before going back to my lessons. 

He spoke up and said Do you know what a Boggart is? I laughed and said I've known what a boggart is since I was 5, he shook his head and said than what is it? I said a Boggart is a shape shifting creature that takes the form of the viewers worst fears. He smiled and said very good, I saw him levitate a cabinet into the middle of the room, he said Do you know how to get rid of a Boggart? I said No, We spoke of them in 1st year, but never how to get rid of them or the spell. He waved me out of my seat, and showed me the proper stance of performing the spell Riddikulus, Professor stepped behind me, moving my arm into position with his hand, When he stepped closer to me, I noticed he was aroused, by what I didn't know, I felt really uncomfortable, I became so stiff and tense that I couldn't cast the spell. As detention ended, and I was packing up to leave, He walked past me, brushing up against me, I noticed it again, this time only worse, I panicked and said I have to go now. I hurried out of the room.
