"Mr Riddle and Longbottom." Harry’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. He wasn’t that bothered, he knew the boy was insanely good in Herbology, and he knew he could use that to help him in Potions. He also suspected the boy was nervous around Severus. He hoped being paired with him, a Slytherin, would help him relax."Miss Riddle and Dunbar! In the front row, middle seats." Severus said. Harry watched as a brunette moved forwards with Hermione to their delegated seats."Who's that? I don’t remember her" Harry whispered to Neville."Fay Dunbar. Transferred for this year from Beauxbatons along with her cousin Lily. They both got sorted into Gryffindor, they are nice." Neville whispered back hesitantly. Harry grinned at the boy, once he got the Gryffindor out of his shell, he reckoned they would get along perfectly."Malfoy and Thomas. front row, left side." Severus said glaring at the Muggleborn Gryffindor who was grumbling as he made to his seat."Nott and Finnigan, second row, left side" Theo scowled as he sat behind Draco."Zabini and Potter, middle seats." Severus started to read quicker wanting to start the actual lesson."Parkinson and Weasley on the right." The scowls from the Gryffindor’s got darker and darker as each name was read out. "Greengrass and Patil, third row on the right."Lovegood and Moon third row middle seats." Harry turned to Neville with a raised eyebrow, his green eyes clearly asking the question."Yeah, that’s Fay’s cousin, their Mothers are sisters I think." Neville whispered."Crabbe and Brown, left side" Harry sniggered when he saw the horrified look on Lavender Brown’s face."Then we are out of Gryffindor’s so the last pairing is Goyle and Bulstrode. Take the middle seat of the last row"
