Default Charms Lesson Two

The charms classroom has been completely transformed from the last time you were here. Instead of the hard well polished stone floor, there is a a fluffy white carpet
SPOILER!!: carpet
that covers the entire floor. Colourful cushions
SPOILER!!: cushions
are also placed in neat rows where the desks and chairs usually stood. In the corner of the room stands a large container filled with balls
SPOILER!!: balls
.

There is a sign just outside the door to the room in bold flashing letters :

Please remove your shoes and place them in your book bag or in to the side of the class. As is usual ensure that you are properly attired and neat. When you do enter, pick a cushion and sit on it, keep talking to a minimum.

There professor is standing at the front of the class with her arms folded waiting for you all to be seated.

When Alyssa heard that class was over, she was disappointed but she turned to thank her partner. "Thanks for partnering with me, Nora. I hope that we can do so again in the future." Alyssa smiled at the Slytherin girl.

Picking up her back pack and her shoes, Alyssa made her way to Professor Bellaire and said,"Thank you for another interesting lesson, Professor." Alyssa would have added 'Have a nice day' but in the mood the Professor seemed to be in, Alyssa decided to forgo that.

She quickly made her way out the classroom door, slipped on her shoes and left.

"AHHHH!"

Kerplunk, right in the face.

"Bluuuuuuuuuuuue!" He nagged and held his face. It didn't hurt that much, but the general surprise of the attack just added to it.

Still, she had done better than he had. But now it was his turn. "It's okay, I am fine." Of course he was, even though there was a small red mark on his forehead now. Theodore placed the ball on front of him and took a few seconds to prepare.

Okay... Easy.

"Wingardium Leviosa." Theo said calmly, with the swish and flick following. The ball rose from the ground slowly, and he felt so excited that he almost let go of his wand to flail about. He didn't, though.

"BLUE, LOOK I'M DOING IT." The ball wobbled a bit as he shouted, but was still airborne. Now, Blue had to catch it. It was going her waaaaaaayyy....


O_______________O

Still slightly suspicous, Blue shrugged. "Otttttttaaaaaaaayyyyy." She didn't believe him though. She would find out WHAT HE HAD DONE AND SHE WOULD KILL HIM ....have a serious talk with him. ...As long as it didn't affect her (or Ravenclawwesome) she would forgive her bestie.

OOOOPPPSSSIIIIIEEES.

"THEOI'MSOSORRY.IDIDN'TMEANTO!"

Blue breathed, chewing her lip. NOOOS. Now there was a nasty red mark on his forehead. AND IT 'TWAS HER FAULT!!! "Ehem. Sowwwie. Okay." She smiled and tucked her wand behind her ear and positioning herself, ready to catch the ball.

OHMYGOSH.

"YOU'RE DOING IT THEO!!!" She grinned proudly. She had to say it again just to remind that he was ACTUALLY DOING IT.

AWWWEEEESOME.

Blue jumped up into the air and snatched the ball.

GRRRIIIIN.

She kept a close eye on the students who were being punishment but was sure to not take away the attention in full from the other practicing. This class was very much about them too, even more so, since they were respectful enough to do as asked.

"Alright, well done everyone, well done." She wanted to maybe spare them a smile but she felt it turn into something of a scowl. Bloody bad behaving kids ruined her mood.

"I'm afriad we're at the end of our lesson. But remember you don't stop practicing when you leave the classroom. The annex is there at your disposal, please make use of it and also my office is open to those who have questions."

And she was sure a few of them had questions.

"You're dismissed be sure to check the notice board for your home work posting...ah..and the four of you.." she pointed at all the delinquents in turn..."You leave last."


"Awwwwww."

Blue pouted and look at Theo sadly but then perked up. "Atleast we were both able to do it!" But class was over now. SIIIGGGH.

Blue slipped on her shoes and swung her bag onto her shoulder.

"Ya comin'?"

Theodore smiled, showing off his teeth to show he was okay. To be honest, he was feeling kind of dizzy. "I'm fiiiiiiiine. I can handle a little ball to the head." It was a kind of hard ball, though.

Blinking slightly, Theodore made a little noise of excitement as his wand flickin' was still going to plan.

"I AM. WE ARE SO AWESOME."

And they totally weren't losing points like SOME shameful students. Shameful.

Theo beamed and held up his hand for a high five once she caught the ball. Again? Theo prepared himself for Blue to send it his way again, and then professor Bellaire spoke.

OWWWWWWW....

Okay. Theodore skipped over to his bag and pulled it along the floor, then stood by Blue. "Yup!"

B-b-b-b-but where was his gold star? Theodore looked over to the professor and she looked in a foul mood. Probably those older kids causing havoc, so he wouldn't push her today. "Thanks for the COOL lesson, professor!" He called, then skipped out of the classroom with Blue.

WOOP.

As Violet started again, Lily slipped her wand into it's holster to get ready to catch the ball...which landed right in front of her and bounced right into her face. "Whoops... It looks like we both can't catch the ball." Giggle, giggle.
Violet laughed with her as well and then laughed even more when her partner got hit with the ball too. "Oopsy daisies. Yup, we both need to work on that. Are you okay?" Just then, the professor had announced that dismissal of the class. "Aww man, we hadn't even startedd that much." as she got her stuff ready. Violet went back to the side of the classroom to pick up her shoes and called out from behind. "Hey Lily, want to go somewhere and hang out?"

Violet waited by the door for her friend to put the ball away and also called out, "Goodbye professor. It was a very fun lesson." while rubbing the spot the ball hit her.

Jacques noticed everyone gathering their things and took this as a cue the lessons were over, using the wall as support he slid himself up, his legs quivering a little from being curled for so long before he stood and rolled away from the wall then weaved through the throng of students and to where his bag was. Taking it by the strap he got his shoes out, secured it on his feet then flicked his wand over the laces so the knots were even and neat before slinging his bag across his chest and reaching for his timetable to check his next scheduled class as he walked out of the room.

Apparently not. And since Bellaire was feeling generous in taking away points today Selina was not going to argue with her about the lesson length. Gryffindor has suffered enough that day and she did not need it suffering anymore. Which reminded her that Mortimer and Paulie needed to have a conversation...

Collecting her bag and her shoes, Selina looked at Kurumi and said, "Come on Kurumi, we should get out of here." Maybe Selina was being a little silly by keeping such an eye on Kurumi, but her best friend was acting strangely and she felt that a little guidance would be goo for her friend. That and she did not want to be the first one to leave the classroom.
Before Kurumi could answer Selina about potentially doing more practice, Professor Bellaire had called the lesson. Kurumi looked at the group of students that had been instructed to stay behind, her gaze lingering for just a moment. Would the woman turn them into newts? Kurumi used to suspect that Dragon Lady would do such a thing to students that misbehaved, but this woman was seeming to be more of the sort. Short temper. Uptight. At least that was Kurumi's impression at the moment. She was still feeling a little rattled from her shouting in the classroom and disturbing her concentration - which could have caused her to seriously hurt Selina.

Hearing Selina, Kurumi's attention turned to her best friend and she simply nodded. "Sounds like a plan, I could really go for some breakfast," she smiled as she walked over to her bag. Wait...where were her shoes?! Oh, right, Selina had told her that they were in her bag as well. As if to prove this, Kurumi opened it up and took a peek inside. Yep, there they were. Kurumi then slung her bag over her shoulder and turned towards the professor to offer her a small, but polite bow before she began to make her way towards the door.

He had only been curious so he would know what not to do when around Professor Bellaire. Now 'messing around' could mean a lot of things. He'd heard it also referred to kissing. Was that what they'd been doing? There were a few of them involved though. So how had that worked? Now he was slowly getting curious after all.

Huh.

Turning around fully to face the Slytherin Prefect, Lewis had raised his wand, ready to go when...the other boy said something weird. "What?" He lowered his wand again slowly, just staring at him for a moment, blinking quite rapidly. Hit...him? WHAT?! They were supposed to practice the spell. Not fight. "W-why?" He didn't like fighting. Why on Earth would he want to hit the other boy? Was that related to what had just happened over there with Sierra and the rest? Did he WANT to get in trouble too?
Kennedy was waiting. He wanted to fly already!

He stood there awkwardly, almost wanting to flap his arms to aid Lewis into getting him into the air. Then the guy asked what. "I didn't mean it in a literal sense," he said after realizing the Hufflepuff Prefect had taken his comment seriously. He didn't want him to hit him physically, just hit him with the charm. "I meant with the charm." Yeah, Kennedy didn't want to lose anymore points for his house.

Now that that was explained he not so patiently waited for Lewis to hit him with the CHARM, but the professor spoke. He then gawked at the Hufflepuff. The lesson was over! He wasn't going to get to fly.

As it was both partners had their eyes open while he floated and briefly met as the younger of the two tried to fix his position high up in the air. At least it hadn't been as crazy as his fellow Gryffindor leaders' had been.
Gideon saw some realization in Stella's eyes and stopped moving briefly in hopes of giving her more control as she sought to right the situation.

Thankfully with the lowered wand came lowered altitude and Gideon decended to a smaller height. He was still moving slightly to try and balance himself and not be tilted backwards and after some effort he had managed to be more head over heels then he had started out. And then Professor Bellaire spoke up again, this time calmer and less vocal. Class was dismissed and Gideon looked back over at Stella seeing as he really couldn't do much to leave until she let him down the rest of the way.

"Guess thats that then..." As in...please get me down so we can leave.


The fact Gideon had stopped flailing a little had reassured Stella that he at least wasn't trying to give her a heart attack and intentionally start spinning. In fact, she honestly hoped it meant he wanted to be upright as much as she wanted him to, and the slight movement of her wand to lower him a fraction seemed to help. At least, he looked to be at less of a crazy angle, but he still wasn't quite upright enough for her to feel entirely comfortable. Especially as most of her concentration was still focused on just keeping him airborne. She didn't want him to go crashing down to the ground any time soon, after all, even if there were cushions, pillows, and what looked to be belongings as well that might break his fall. She'd still prefer not dropping him.

She almost did as Professor Bellaire spoke again, though, snapping her head around as the woman announced that the lesson was over. She got her wand up again in time that her partner had only fallen an inch or so, however, and turned back to him sheepishly as he'd spoken. "I'm sorry," she said, blushing the slightest bit as she lowered her wand more to let him touch ground again. "I didn't mean to almost drop you, but you're right. It seems we're all excused," she continued, sliding her wand back into its holster before reaching down to get her flats back out from her bag and slip them back on her feet. At least there hadn't been any other major disasters after the one, and she hadn't failed in casting the charm either. That would have looked bad.

"Good bye, Professor Bellaire," she added, turning her attention back to the woman before even thinking about leaving. It had certainly been an interesting lesson, to say the least, and with the questionable mood the professor might still be in, she didn't want to seem rude.

Gideon floated and waited patiently for his partner to do the honors. "Woah!" he let out as Stella seemed to be distracted when Professor Bellaire dismissed him, a sudden fall moving him closer to the ground. He want down and soon enough but certainly not that way. Though thankfully the Ravenclaw recovered quickly enough and it was only a few inches of fast decent before she stopped it. He gave a sigh of relief and soon enough his feet were touching once more

"Nae...its alright," he replied assuring her after her appology seeing as no actual harm had come to him so there was no foul. It had been an honest mistake and no more and both were now safe and ready to leave the class. "Good bye Professor," he said echoing Stella's farewell as he grabbed his bag of belongings. "Thank you for class," Gideon added to be polite, slipping out of the classroom in his sockened feet, only putting his shoes back on once outside.

So the lesson was over. Great as her Sltherin Partner's attitude was bothering her greatly. She HATED when people acted with nonchalance, especally on a thing like school work, which was very important to Sarah. Is it a Slytherin thing? Or just a 3rd year teenage thing? Probably both.
Sarah was about to leave when she looked around and surveyed th e mess. Pillows were lying haphazardly everywhere, and scattered balls cheekily grinned at her from their place on the floor.
"Professor, Can I please help you collect the balls? and collect the pillows or just help clean up?" Sarah inquired.
