Hey everyone, here's the re-edited Chapter One!

Chapter Two should be here later.

Enjoy, read and review!


No matter what they tell us.
No matter what they do.
No matter what they teach us.
What we believe is true.

No matter what they call us.
However they attack.
No matter where they take us.
We'll find our own way back.

I can't deny what I believe.
I can't be what I'm not.
I know our love forever.
I know, no matter what.


If only tears were laughter (ooh).
If only night was day (ooh).
If only prayers were answered (hear my prayers).
Then we would hear God say (say).

No matter what they tell you (ooh).
No matter what they do (ooh).
No matter what they teach you.
What we believe is true.

And I will keep you safe and strong.
And shelter from the storm.
No matter where it's barren.
A dream is being born.

No matter who they follow.
No matter where they lead.
No matter how they judge us.
I'll be everyone you need.

No matter if the sun don't shine (sun don't shine).
Or if the skies are blue (skies are blue).
No matter what the end is.
My life began with you.

I can't deny what I believe (what I believe, yeah).
I can't be what I'm not.
(I know, I know) I know this love's forever.
That's all that matters now.
No matter what.

No matter what (no, no matter, no).
No, no matter.
That's all that matters to me.

Harry's Summer Holiday

Chapter One - An Invitation

It was in the second week of the school holidays and Harry was back in Privet Drive with the Dursleys.

Harry Potter was doing his homework from Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry. The teachers always think that the students need to do work while on holidays.

Harry will be going into his seventh year at Hogwarts and he's also the Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team.

Harry looks up from doing his homework and looks outside. Thinking to himself.

"Where is Hedwig? I let her out the night before last and she isn't back yet."

Then he saw a bird in the horizon and it was getting bigger and bigger. It was coming towards him. He recognised Hedwig.

"Hey Hedwig, where have you been?"

Then he saw the letter on her leg. He recognised the handwriting of Hermione. So he tore the letter open and wondered what Hermione was writing to him about. It was probably something about the homework we were set in the holidays.

Dear Harry,

I hope that your Uncle and aunt are treating you right and with respect.

"Yeah right, if they did they would have done years ago." Harry said, rolling his eyes.

I am writing to you because my parents want to meet you in person, so they have invited you to spend the rest of the summer with us. I hope that your Uncle and Aunt will let you come. You can come here or you can go to The Burrow with Ron and his family but my parents really want to meet you in person.

"I would love to go to her place for the summer but will Uncle Vernon agree? I hope so. I have never met her parents. If they don't let I'm still coming." Harry said in an excited tone.

If you are able to come we will be picking you up on the 20th of July so that you can have a month here, then a week in London and then we take the train to school on the 1st of September. It would be sometime in the afternoon probably around 4:30. We will be picking you up in our family car.

"That's tomorrow. I can't wait. I'll be going even if the Dursley's don't let me and at least they won't yell at me again for destroying their lounge room with Ron's family."

I hope that you will be able to come over for the summer. We will be going to London one week before school starts so if you can't come now we might be able to meet up then.

Send your reply to me by Hedwig, I am sorry, but she came to me when I really needed an owl to send this to you.

Hope to see you soon,

Love, Hermione Granger.

PS. Hope you have at least started on your homework. Don't be like Ron and leave it until last moment. I've already finished. I think I did about 6 foot instead of 5 foot for Professor Snape.

Just like Hermione to think about homework, but I have already finished it. Harry looked at the time and it was 8 o'clock in the morning. The Dursleys should be getting up soon because Uncle Vernon has work at ten.

He made his way down the stairs, through the lounge room and into the kitchen. His Aunt Petunia was in the kitchen making breakfast for Vernon and Dudley.

Harry was always given the leftovers or had to made his own breakfast.

His Uncle Vernon always slept in and Dudley, well you know Dudley. You can't ever get him away from the TV.

At the breakfast table Harry plucked up the courage to ask his Uncle if he could go to Hermione's house for the rest of the summer.

"Excuse me Uncle Vernon, can I ask you something?"

"You just did."

Harry assumed that he was allowed to ask so…

"Well I was wondering, if I could go to Hermione's place for the rest of the summer. She is a friend of mine from you know where. Her parents are like you. Can I go?"

Harry watched his Uncles face to get a glimpse of what he might have been thinking. He could see his eyes twitch while trying to put everything together. Harry thought that he could hear Uncle Vernon thinking.

"Okay Boy, you can go, but where the bloody hell does she live? And how are you going to get there? I'm not going to drive you all over England to find her house, and I'm not going to have the Living Room destroyed again like last time."

"Don't worry Uncle Vernon, Hermione's parents have a car and they have offered to pick me up at 4:30ish tomorrow. Hermione knows where we live so she can direct her parents here, and it will be by car."

"Okay, but they better be here on time because you know what happened last time."

Last time was when the Weasley's decided to pick Harry up when it was the Quidditch World Cup and they came by Floo-Power. Mr Weasley Ron's dad thought that the Durselys had a normal Fire Place not one of these new electronic ones and then he destroyed the living room.

"Okay, since I can go, I'll just go and pack my trunk. Don't you always say that the earlier you start the quicker it will take? I know that it will take ages so I'll just go and do it."

Harry turned towards the door. He went up the stairs, but on the way he met Dudley. Dudley had a look on his face saying that he was guilty of eavesdropping and was hoping that Harry was in some sort of trouble.

"Hey Dudley, can you move off the stairs so I can go up to my room to pack?"

"Why the hell would you want to pack? Oh, has Daddy finally decided to kick you out of the house? If he has, that means that I can have my old room back."

"Dudley, may I just remind you that I turn 17 in July, and when your 17 in my world, that means that your able to do my stuff without going through the thing of under-age Wizards." Dudley shivered at the mention of the word 'Wizard'.

"Oh yes, so that means that when I come back from school next summer, I will be able to do magic without getting in trouble. So if you will kindly excuse me, I have some packing to do."

So as Harry was going up the stairs, Dudley ran down nearly as fast as a cheetah. As Dudley was running down, he clutched his bottom where Hagrid the Groundkeeper at Hogwarts, had given him a pigtail."

When Harry got in his bedroom he just burst out laughing and couldn't stop. He decided to send a reply to Hermione.

Dear Hermione,

The Dursley's are letting me come to your place. I can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Love, Harry.

PS. I have already finished my homework. Don't worry about Snape.

After Hedwig was on her way to Hermione's, Harry started to pack his trunk. But everything was all over the floor, the bed, under the bed and on the desk. Harry tried to find all of his stuff. He gathered it all into one big pile and started to pack everything into his trunk.

It took Harry all day, as there are a lot of Spell books and clothes. Finally, when everything was packed he decided to write to Ron to tell him of the latest events.

Dear Ron,

How are you? Have your brothers given you any trouble? But hey, if they do, you can jinx them without being caught by the Ministry.

Anyway, I've been invited to Hermione's place for the holidays, so I can get away from the awful Dursleys. At least I don't need to come back here next summer.

I'll send a letter to you to tell you when Hermione and I will be going to Diagon Alley to get our schoolbooks. Maybe we could meet up there before we go back to school for the last time?

I hope that we will see you at Diagon Alley and that you can cope with your brothers and not to mention Fleur.

Hope to see you soon,

Harry.

PS. Hermione has already bugged me about homework. Start on yours before she bugs you too.

PSS. Write back, but send your owl to Hermione's not to the Dursley's.


That's Chapter One.

Big thanks to the original author for letting me continue for him.

I hope I can meet your standards!

Review please!

Bye!
