Simon was happy when the Professor walked behind her desk, it ment one thing his plan had worked and she hadn't found the note now all he had to hope for was it too stay long enough for her to go out for a walk and then she would be hugged by loads of students and she wouldn't know why.
"I'll have a look in the Library after I have finished here." Simon said truthfully, so long as there was a book on the 50 deadlyiest plants and how to use them then that would be good, though he would need help getting books like that. "Professor I was thinking I'd need too know the good and the bad of Herbology and so I'd need to go in the restricted section." Simon had an idea. "If you came then it would be easy for you too find the books you think I need."
Simon was then handed a book. "Cool, thanks Miss I'll read this as quick as I can and give it back too you before you can say Dragons." Simon smiled, this was going to be an interesting read, maybe Simon should go in for Herbology after all and be a part time Quidditch Player he wasn't sure though.
"Dragons," repeated Seren... she laughed, amused by her own joke.
After searching just that little bit longer Seren found what she was looking for... turning to face the boy she smiled. It looked brand new, the cover bound in brilliant green leather, with gold letters scrawled across the front,
Fanged Flowers of the Amazon and her name beneath it
by Seren Bentley.
"And one from yours trully", she said as she returned to her seat, book in hand. She flipped it to the inside cover then signed her name with her eagle feather quill.
"I'd like you to have it... I've got another dozen copies at home," she said brightly, sliding the book across the desk in front of him.
"I wrote that one before I went to University... I had spent two years on an expedition in the Amazon. And even to this day I still don't think I've seen enough. Thats the one thing about herbology... there is so much out there. So much to learn, to explore, to discover. The possibilities are endless."
Mmm perhaps she shouldn't rant.
The restricted section?... oh no... that was just silly. There wasn't much in there in terms of herbology... anything herbology related was mostly about potions.
"And what do you hope to find in the restricted section exactly?" she asked. It seemed like a strange request. After all, the average text books weren't entirely pretty and rosy.
The boy was too young to have his mind corrupted by dark arts nonsense.
