    Summary

    Slughorn’s voice boomed, “Ten points to Slytherin for Mr. Snape’s perfect infusion!” and Sirius groaned, elbowing James. “Bet he’ll be insufferable for a week.”

    James made a face, but the truth was, he couldn’t help watching Severus—how he frowned in concentration, how the fringe of his hair kept falling over his eyes.

    When their own potion went sideways (Sirius had misread the instructions and dumped the valerian in too soon), smoke filled the air and Slughorn hurried over, his mustache twitching. “Oh dear, gentlemen—perhaps you should observe Mr. Snape’s technique!”

    The class laughed, but Severus didn’t. He just glanced at James, his dark eyes unreadable, and for a moment, something flickered between them—something sharp, and electric, and impossible to name.
