-1Harry had just gotten back to 4 Privet drive when he remembered that he had forgotten to get a new bottle of ink. Harry decided that he would get some before school started back and if he couldn't, he could always get some at Hogwarts. Harry walked into the usually quiet house to yelling and screaming from upstairs. Petunia and Vernon where fighting. Harry walked very slowly upstairs trying not to make a sound. He stood outside his aunt and uncle's bedroom door.

"He's learned this from Harry, I'm telling ya." Vernon yelled as he opened the closet door and got a suitcase out. Harry was now looking through a crack in the door.

"Harry! There is no way he could have taught Thomas to do such stuff. Harry is not allowed to use magic at home, we would have known if he had used it around Thomas."

"Well all I know is Thomas has learned it somewhere! He is your son now I will have nothing to do with that…that…THING!"

"That THING!" Petunia shrieked. "That thing is your child, no matter what he does, if he does magic or anything else, he is your child!"

"He is not my child! I will not support his kind!" Vernon yelled.

"We have supported Harry since he was a baby!" Petunia said.

"Only because he was your nephew and we had no choice, we could not leave him on the streets. We would be turned into the authorities!"

"Vernon, I can not believe you are acting like this. I am keeping him and if you don't want to be around him then get out of my house! And let me tell you something else, once you walk out that door I don't ever want to hear from you or see you again, and you will never talk to Dudley again either!"

"Very well then." Vernon said as he closed his suitcase and walked toward the door. "I will notify the lawyer tomorrow so he can start drawing up the divorce papers!" Harry ran quickly to his room and shut the door. Vernon noticed that Harry had been listening for he noticed the door shutting as he walked out of the bedroom. Vernon walked downstairs and told Dudley to be a good boy and then he walked out the door.

"Mum, where was dad going?" Dudley asked Petunia as she entered the kitchen.

"Your dad is leaving and he will not be coming back." Petunia said with tears in her eyes.

"But… Why is dad leaving?" Dudley asked as he dropped his fork, something he very rarely done was lay his fork to the side to listen to what someone had to say.

"Dudley, your brother Thomas is not like us. He can do magic."

Dudley's mouth fell open just like when it did just when he was about to take a bite of cake bigger than his mouth.

"It is all Harry's fault!" Dudley yelled.

"Dudley, there is no way Harry could have possibly taught Thomas to do magic at such a young age, plus we would know about it because Harry is not allowed to use magic outside of school." Petunia explained to her son.

"Go up and tell Harry to come down for a moment." Petunia told Dudley.

Dudley went upstairs and opened the door to Harry's room.

"Harry, my mom wants to see you, you are in big trouble!" Dudley said as he chuckled.

"Trouble" Harry thought to himself. What kind of trouble could he be in. Did his aunt really think that he had taught Thomas how to do magic. All of this was running through Harry's head as he walked downstairs toward the kitchen. Harry walked into the kitchen with his head hung down.

"Out Dudley!" Petunia told her son Dudley who looked shocked that he had been told to get out of the kitchen.

"Harry, do you think that your friend… umm… what's his name again?"

"Ron?."

"Yes, Ron, do you think that your friend Ron would let you stay at his house until the new school term starts next week. I have a lot that I need to take care of and it would be best if you were not around."

"If course, I mean I think that I can stay. I can write him a letter tonight and have Hedwig deliver it to him." Harry said, Harry was still in awe that his Aunt was allowing him, let alone making him, go to stay with one of his friends.

"That sounds fine." Petunia said.

Harry walked up to his room immediately and started writing his letter to Ron.

" Hey Ron,

I have something to ask you. Do you think it would be alright for me to stay at your house until the new school term begins? My aunt and Uncle are getting a divorce and my aunt wants me out of the house for a while. Please write back as soon as you can!

Thanks,

Harry P."

Harry walked over to Hedwig's cage and let her out. She flew over to the window seal and Harry tied the letter around her neck and opened the window. Hedwig flew off into the dark night.

It was about two or three hours before Hedwig arrived back at the window seal with a reply from Ron.

"Hello Harry,

My mom said that your could stay until the term starts, She said that my dad will pick you up tomorrow at noon outside the Dursley's house.

Ron Weasley"

Ron went downstairs and showed his aunt the letter and she said that, that would be fine, then told Harry to go down to the basement and get all of his school books and supplies and then start packing his things. Harry walked down stairs to the basement. Harry could not see a thing in the darkness, he eventually stumbled around in the darkness until he found the light switch. When he turned it on he was very surprised to see that the basement was very cluttered. His aunt had always hated clutter and kept her home very clean and organized but you would never be able to tell this from looking at the basement.

Harry walked over to a box labeled "Harry's magic". Harry quickly opened the box. He was so happy to see all of his spell books and everything once again. He picked the large heavy box up and brought it upstairs to his room. It took Harry about thirty minutes to pack everything he owned, which came out to be about 2 boxes including his box of school books and magical things. Harry then climbed into bed and laid his glasses on the nightstand. He turned out the lights, rolled over and went to sleep.
