Draco and Harry watched from the front corner of the room talking in low tones as their 2nd period Slytherin/Gryffindor 6th years students piled into the room.

"Should we be worried?" asks Draco eyeing the happily chatting teens as they sought to find seats with their friends and in the marauders case casting hexes on unsuspecting students while waiting for the class to begin.

"I would be" whispered Harry as he removes another one of the marauders pranks that was sure to get off sometime during the class "all that house rivalry and hormones. It doesn't tend to be a good thing"

"I would guess so Po...Patterson"

"Hey what's with the girl?" asks Harry as he indicates towards an overly exited teen that was clinging to a very annoyed Severus.

Draco looks at her speculatively "She looks kindof familiar."

"Now that I think about it she does. She kindof looks like Bela"

"Wait a minute I think it's auntie Melanie"
"who?"

"Belas' Mom"

"Oh, what I find hard to understand is why is she flirting with, why would she even want to with Snape of all people?"

"I'll have you know Severus is quite a pleasant company and many people find him attractive. You just never gave him a chance."

"Oh I gave him chances. That man will never change"

"Maybe it's because you never tried to be nice to him"

"I've always been nice to him."

Draco raises an eyebrow at him.

"Ok almost always"

Draco kept looking at him with his eyebrow raised.

"ok ok a minimal amount of time but he's the one with the sarcastic remarks and the sneering face. And he's always out to get me."

"Well perhaps you should try harder."

"Why should I? I don't need to be his friend. If he doesn't want to play nice then that's his problem."

"Friendships takes time and effort Harry. Just look at us."

Harry looks at Draco for a while blinking. "oh, alright then, I guess I could try…again." He says eventually sighing just as the bell for the class rings. "that's if we ever go back" He adds mumbling.

"I sure hope so. Well, lets get this horror show started shall we." whispers Draco as he walks to the front of the classroom facing the students "good morning. I'm professor Malford and this is Professor Patterson." he says indicating towards Harry. "I will be teaching you things like the history of the spell and it's uses while professor Patterson here, would be teaching you more hands on things. We might choose to do one week of theory and another week of practical or just do alternating classes. It'll depend on how fast you can grasp the subject we're learning. Now seeing as it's our first day and your first day back. We thought we could just lay back a bit and talk, get to know each other and what not. What do you think?

Most of the students in the class nod there heads seemingly happy that they will not be doing any work.

"Now how about we go around and introduce ourselves. Just hobbies and what not, Things you want to share with us. You may ask us any questions you have, we'll try to answer as many as we can."

"That is to say we'll try to answer all questions, as long as it' not too personal." Added in Harry

They went around the room as everyone introduced themselves. Sirius and James took a good 10 minutes recollecting all there Hogwarts memories thus far, most containing some sort of trick or prank they had played on people and of course there charming good looks and personality was added in too.

"Well it's very nice to know about you all and I look forward to learning more as the year goes by though I must say Mr. Black and Mr. Potter it seems you didn't leave much for us to find out."

"Oh but that's just a tinsy part of our lives. If you want, you can learn a whole lot about me" says Sirius winking at Draco.

Draco's eyes grow wide just as Remus hits Sirius over the head whispering "knock it off"

"Did he just…?" asks Draco in a whisper to Harry.

Harry nods his head whispering back "I think he did" Harry continues on with the class as Draco became tongue tied "well I guess now it's our turn what do you want to know?"

James raises his hand

"Mr. Potter?"
"Would we have homework?
"Not today Mr. Potter but during the duration of the year you will be getting homework."

"Bummer you're so uncool."

Harry laughs "we're teachers we're not supposed to be cool. Anybody else have any questions they'd like answered?"
Lily raises her hand, at Harry's' nod she starts to speck "If you don't mind me asking Professor Patterson where did you get that odd scar."

"Huh?"

"The scar on your forehead." Points out Lily.

Harry looks at Draco mouthing "is it really there?"

Draco nods as Harry curses "damn muggle cosmetics"

"Excuse me?" asks Lily.

"Oh nothing. I ah …knife cut… somebody cut me there with a knife. I had joined a cult when I was a teen. Part of the initiation process. In fact very few people seem to know about it…"

Draco raises an eyebrow as he tries not to laugh at Harry's explanation.

"…isn't that right Draco?"

"Yes Harry does tend to get himself into sticky situations but no worries he comes out alive."

"Oh…I thought that it might have been a curse scar seeing it never was healed properly." Says Lily looking a bit disappointed.

"oh yeah well I kind of kept it there as punishment of sorts. You know to remind me to not do something like that again." Says Harry. "Does anyone else have anything else to ask?" says Harry quickly changing the subject, lest someone else ask another question about the "initiation scar". Just as another student was about to raise their hand the bell rang for the end of class.

"oh look at that time passes by when you're having fun. Alright have a good afternoon no homework, and we'll see you…on Thursday."

Everyone gathers their things and a chorus of "goodbye Professor Patterson" and " Professor Malford" is heard as the students pile out of the class.

"We're having a talk about what happened here this afternoon" says Remus giving Sirius a hard look.

"Oh man. It meant nothing Reme" Remus huffs at him and then walks quickly out of the room.

"You never learn do you padfoot?" James says as he putts an arm around Sirius's neck while they leave the classroom. "If I had someone I wouldn't dream of looking at anyone else much less flirting. Isn't that right Lily?"

Lily glares at James "I wouldn't know Potter."

"Then why don't you find out. Go out with me."

"Not on your life Potter." Says Lily sneering at him as she walks past him with her group of friends.

"None of our pranks worked. Think we did them wrong?" squeaks Peter.

"No wormtail it's because of those professors." snaps Sirius at Peter who cowers at the glare and tone.

"Yah" says James grinning "I'm starting to like them already, we haven't had a challenge for a long time. Say Siri what do you say…" Their voices fade away as the last of the students leave the room.

"We're not gonna be rid of them are we."

"Not by a longshot"

"Your godfather hit on me?" Says Draco.

"Thanks for stating the obvious."

"But…but…"

"I wouldn't worry too much remember that Remus and Sirius are together and very much in love even 20 years form now and that's saying something."

"Yeah I know. It's just weird." Says Draco making a face.

Harry rolls his eyes at him. "come on lets go to lunch I'm starving" says Harry as he grabs Draco's hand and drags him to the great hall.

AN Yah I know this kindof sounds stupid and but it's all I've got. Lets hope the next chapter isn't this bad. R&R
