"So we stick the flowers up now?" she asked the Professor quietly.
Professor Kapoor nodded. "
Yes, Miss Flores. You and Mr. Leone should feel free to stick your flowers up on the chalk board now so we can all see what you've chosen." And the points could be tallied and everyone could be excused. It was a long lesson, but hopefully a productive one.

He had helped her once in a difficult time and now it was her time to return the favour.
Lyra steadied her feet when Evan dragged himself up and used her shoulder as support but the pressure was gone very soon. Lyra looked at him with a raised eyebrow and knew what he was thinking. Fallon. Hmpf the stupid girl wasn't even bothering to help him! She watched as Evan started to walk away towards the door and had then stopped, holding the door knob. She looked suprised at him but then she heard her name. It wasn't even her first name, but her last name and she knew she was in trouble
Five points?......
Lyra turned around sharply and gazed with her mouth slightly open towards the professor. Five points... she never lost points from Slytherin before..never. Lyra forgot about Evan for a second and just stood there. A few seconds passed as she continued to hear 'five points from Slytherin' in her head and then it hit her. She had just lost points! "S-sorry Professor. It won't happen again" she said quickly and bowed with her head. When she looked up again she saw another Slytherin student glaring at her. Having the feeling to shout What?! at her but Lyra controlled herself. She didn't wanted to loose more points.
"
It's alright, Miss Riddle." No matter how many times he did it, nor for how many years, taking points was still not a comfortable feeling. "
You'll be given the chance to earn them back. In fact, if you wouldn't mind. I think it would be a very responsible and considerate thing if you'd escort Mr. Cartwright to the Nurses wing." Although, truth be told, being as how the boy did just about toss up his right lung, he was probably better off visiting Kazimeriz for a bottle of pepper-up.
