Quickly looking away from the group, she changed her facial expression into a poker face, shielding her feelings and thoughts. Emma Alfie covered her mouth in shock as Braeden threw a punch at Theo. " Braeden!? What are you doing? You're.. " she cried in an unusually loud voice, quickly. Ahem. Zip it. Then Braeden was looking at her. AND talking to her. Alfie just stared and gave him a sweet smile. " Hi Brae," she said, with a happy smile. His smile always melted her. Butterflies fluttered in her stomach as she watched him and Emma Alfie together. Noooooooo! She couldn't bare this. It was as if she was in a horror movie, watching the guy whom she loved with another person.
Alfie started shaking her head as Theo went on and on. Uhhh.. Emma had just saw Theo the other day, during a class..... Wait. How could Theo not remember that? Hmmm... This was suspicious. Had Theo lost his memory? Like Trixie?
...... And then Theo was walking away! NO! WAIT. He couldn't just walk away and leave Alfie. Alfie Emma gave Emma Alfie an apologetic look. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW AS ALFIE WHEN THEO HAS JUST WALKED AWAY IN A REALLY FAMILIAR WAY!!!! She crossed her arms and wished that the Potion would wear out. Then she could show everyone who she was and Alfie too. BUt.. But.. Theo wasn't in love with Emma! No. He liked someone else. " Umm.. Th-Theo. Wait," she said. " Please." Quote:

Braeden was lightly punching Theo, who was currently stuttering and backing away from the situation like he'd just been the bull in a china shop. Which, he kind of had been. But then again, someone had to be, this whole situation was just far too confusing. Alfie couldn't seem to get the whole vision of Theo leaning towards Emma out of her head, it kept playing back at her randomly. And possibly, worst of all, she was so tired of being someone else. It was fun at first, but not anymore! She didn't want to keep holding onto Brae's hand no offense to the little lion man and she didn't want to keep looking like Emma Malfoy, who's expression right now wasn't very Malfoy-ish at all. It was Alfie-ish!
But soon enough, Theo was starting to walk away and it looked as though Alfie Port was making eyes at Braeden! Of course, it was really Emma making eyes at Braeden, who was her boyfriend, but still, it rather looked like Alfie was throwing affections towards the little lion man! But Alfie didn't have affections for him, she had affections for the boy who was currently attempting to sneak away up the stairs and find a rock to crawl under! UGH! This was all so confusing!
And in this flustered mess of teenage, Polyjuiced confusion, the little blonde currently stuck in Emma Malfoy's body slowly began to change. It was difficult to tell why she was the first of them to return to her normal appearance, whether because she seemed so upset and tired of this whole business, or maybe just simply that she hadn't had as much potion as the rest. For whatever reason, at that moment Alfie Port was beginning to look much less like Emma Malfoy, and much more like Alfie Port. She returned to her height of 5'6 1/2 (which wasn't much of a physical difference as Emma was nearly the same, but it felt more like herself for whatever reason). Her hair, which had been a honey blonde sort of shade, was now growing longer and fading into a much lighter blonde colour; Alfie's hair colour and as it grew the extra few inches, the cascading curls began to appear as well. She was still in Slytherin clothes, but she was most definitely Alfie, as in the next moment her skin tone got lighter and her facial features returned to what they always had been. And best of all, her blue eyes returned to her, as large as ever, taking the place of Emma's which had been there moments before. And she seemed to have no idea that she'd transformed.
So now, instead of Emma Malfoy, Alfie Port stood at Braeden's side, her hand still wrapped around his own awkwardly, though her large saucer-like blue eyes followed after the escaping-Theo with a rather concerned, upset expression. And there were officially two Alfie Ports in the Entrance Hall. Quote:

He made to release the grip on Emma's hand before Alfie had a meltdown, but something felt strange. Was her hand... molting? That was silly; bird's molted with their feathers, but not Emma with her porcelain skin! Turning to look back, he gave a loud yelp and jumped back a few feet when none other than Alfie stood beside him, in Slytherin robes no less! But wait! Wasn't she standing there in her normal Ravenclaw robes, too?! Had they both also taken the poly- "YARGH!" Theodore yelped, having felt something strange going on inside of him. Was it just the room moving, or... was he twitching?! "I... guys!" He squeaked as he shrunk suddenly, feeling like his whole body was about to collapse into a puddle on the marble floor.
But all of a sudden, it stopped. Blinking a few times, he looked at his hands. THEY WERE HIS OWN HANDS. Not Brae's no matter how much he loved that bloke and his hands and his everything, but his own. DUMBLE WAS BACK IN BUSINESS. "...hi, guys," He squeaked, blue eyes wide and staring at a mirror image of himself and two Alfies. He needed a strong glass of butterbeer, stat. Quote:

Merlin's Beard. And then all the twitching stopped and Alfie's blue eyes grew wider. Wait... it was Theo. O.o The blonde took a step back and gave him a puzzled look. " Theo?" she said, with her mouth gaping wide as she stood up and glanced at the other Theo, who was trying to escape them all.
So.....
If Theo had taken the polyjuice potion and had turned into Braeden that only meant... Her heart quickened. Impossible. That explained everything. Or did it?. A smile lightened up her face.
But as soon as she turned around, she felt herself becoming warmer as if she was tanning in the sun and suddenly Emma Alfie looked down at her hands to see her tan coloured skin. Her hands reached up to touch her hair, she pulled a strand of it softly to check what colour it was, and she found that it was the honey colour. Her natural colour. So she was back. In her body! SHE WAS EMMA MALFOY AGAIN. Phew. Not that she didn't like being Alfie, the blonde preferred being herself and she had missed Braeden a lot. And plus the Malfoy was glad that she could be herself so that she could play in the Championship Quidditch Match soon. So Theo and Alfie are here. So that must mean, she thought, she flashed a happy and relieved smile, and then threw her arms around the Dumble that was slowly backing up, not caring if he was Brae or not, but she felt like it might be him. " Brae, is that you?"
And then everything went apepoo.
Next thing Braeden knew, Theo was changing back to his original self, making it seem like there were two Theos in the room. Brae's jaw fell to the floor and, just when he thought it was time to begin explaining himself, " Emma" began to change as well. And now she was Alfie. O_O
… WHAT?!
So now there were two Theos and two Alfies.
The crowd that had gathered around the group began to murmur and gasp with surprise. The soap opera was taking an interesting turn.
With eyes wide as saucers, Braeden watched as one Alfie - the one he'd spent the day with - began to transform as well. Could it be… If the real Alfie had been Emma, then… this Alfie had to be…
And it was.
After just a moment, Emma Malfoy stood before him. It was the weirdest thing in the planet, they were still the same people, just standing in different places now.
In the next moment, Emma had her arms around the Gryffindork boy that still looked like his best mate, and Braeden returned the hug with immense enthusiasm. He lifted the girl lightly off the floor (though not as high as he would've with his own body, since Theo was a couple inches shorter) and laughed to himself.
ALL THIS TIME, he'd been with Emma! All this time, it hadn't been Alfie, it had been Emma! His Emma! Everything… everything was fine! Everything was alright! Theo wasn't going to kill him anymore and he hadn't ruined anything between his best mate and Alfie! Everything… was fine. Just fine. Perfect.
But then the time came. It was Braeden's turn to return back to his original form.
He felt his arms grow longer, so they could wrap around the girl before him easier; his legs seemed to become elastic as they suddenly shot him up a few inches taller. His head felt lighter as he lost the curls he had so enjoyed playing with that day, to be replaced by that lion's mane that was so characteristic of him. He felt narrower, lighter, and, mostly, clumsy. Oh yes. The clumsiness had returned with Braeden Stonem's body.
As he pulled back, having held Emma in his arms for a few more moments, and kissing her cheek as if he hadn't seen her in eternities, the boy beamed down at his blonde little snake. "I can't believe it was you all along…" he said, his eyes a bit dazed but mostly reflecting amusement. All this time. This whole afternoon… it had been Emma all along. He hadn't needed to pretend, after all!
