The hot water pounded down on Harry Potter's head. It washed away the dirt and grime that seemed to have built up over the last few months. Even the time spent at Shell Cottage hadn't seem to completely rid him of the constant feeling of being dirty nor the tension from constantly being on the run, the weight of the world on his shoulders. Now, as he soaped up his body, he watched the dirt and blood wash down the drain and he finally relaxed. He shampooed and conditioned his hair, brushed his teeth, scrubbed his face and emerged from the steaming bathroom feeling fresh and clean.
