"I can drink it!" she told him with a smile. "I mean, I'm only a first year, I'm not sure how good I'd be at something this difficult right now," she chuckled with a small blush. For real - if she made Austin really sick she'd feel SOOOOO bad.

It would have been interesting to see what taking the potion felt like, but in the end, Austin felt relieved that he didn't have to take it. As he had told he professor, in their conversation, he felt more comfortable behind a cauldron than anything else.

So, while Scarlett went to get the potion to drink, Austin went to get the ingredients for the potion. He made sure to get the right amounts, double checking with the board in the front of the room.

As he headed back, a knot grew in Austin's chest. What if the potion wasn't diluted? Or what if he didn't get the antidote finished in time? He didn't know what would happen if someone actually got sick on his account. The professor said no one would die, and he trusted the man. But this year was so crazy, and so much had already happened, that anything was possible. Someone could have switched the potion for a real one, or the professor accidentally gave them the non-diluted solution.

Taking a deep breath, and setting the ingredients down on the counter, Austin waited for Scarlett to get back. And hopefully with a diluted potion.
