Chapter 1: The Letter
BOY! BOY, GET DOWN HERE NOW AND MAKE BREAKFAST! NOW! Harry awoke to another day of hearing himself so affectionately called "boy" by Mr. Dursley. He knew it would be another monotonous day at Number Four Pivot Drive. Harry longed to stay in his bed, but he thought of the Dursely's wrath forced him up.
Harry groggily walked down the stairs, and started cooking bacon and cutting grapefruit for his fat cousin, Dudly.
He was right; it was going to be a day like any other when he was told, quite harshly, to get the mail. He walked to the front door, and found the letters piled up on the floor in front of it. He picked them up and scanned the faces. 'Bill, bill, gift card, bill. Harry Potter, bill.' He paused. "Harry Potter?" He picked up the letter, which was from Hermione.
He ran to the kitchen entrance and threw the mail at Dudley, and ran upstairs to open the letter. He locked the door, and carefully tore the envelope open.
Dear Harry,
How have you been lately? Me, I'm fine. I'm guessing how you are with the Dursley's. This may sound a bit unusual to you, Harry, and I know you wanted to go to The Burrow, but I was wondering if you wanted to spend the rest of the summer at my house. I owled Dumbledor last week and he said it was ok. I already wrote to Ron to get in touch with you to see what you thought. He has no idea what the life of a muggle is like anyways, but he'll learn. Write back with your answer!
Love,
Hermione
Harry could not believe his eyes when he realized he was getting the chance to leave the Little Whining before he expected. He couldn't wait until an owl came from Ron saying it was an awesome idea, and that they would have the best summer ever. After forced manual labor, he couldn't wait to take a break from the Dursley's.
