Harry woke up the next morning giggling as he noticed Ron's bed was still very much closed off from him. He got up and got dressed finding Neville and Ernie and they all headed downstairs for breakfast. He was surprise Ernie didn't ask about where Ron was but then discovered that because he was so nervous he wouldn't have been asking after him anyway. "So what class do you think we'll have first?" asked Neville suddenly. "Well Mr Longbottom here is your schedule so now you'll know what classes you have next. Have a good day everyone!" said Professor Sprout moving on with a weird expression on her face. It was obvious that she was wondering where Ron was but had not asked anyone yet. Looking at his schedule he saw that they had charms first, followed by transfigurations, lunch break, double DADA, and Potions and then dinner. He was excited about the classes but annoyed that they didn't have herbology yet. Oh well he guessed they'd have it tomorrow.
"Excuse me Mr Potter but Mr Weasley is staying with you is he not? Do you know where he is by nay chance?" she asked Harry who nearly laughed but stopped himself from doing so. "I am afraid that I don't Professor Sprout. He was there this morning so I'm not too sure what happened. I mean to say he was in my room this morning and I just assumed that he'd follow us down. I didn't honestly think I'd need to wake him up as well. I'm sorry I'm just so nervous on my first day that I didn't think I'd have to be responsible for another student as well!" he said now a bit annoyed at her assumption that he'd know where Ron was. "Please calm down Mr Potter I did not mean you had to know where he was it was just a question. You are indeed not responsible for him as he is responsible for himself. I guess he is just rebelling as he is not part of the house he wanted to be a part of. No worries I'll get him just now. Off to class all of you and thank you Mr Potter!" she said smiling as they all headed upstairs for charms class. When they entered the Charms classroom they could see their professor standing tall on a huge stack of books. They all took their seats smiling. Harry was of course sitting beside Neville and Ernie had gone to sit beside his good friend from Ravenclaw Justin Finch- Fletchley.
"Ok everyone good morning and welcome to charms class. I am professor Flitwick and I shall be teaching you all this fine day. I see one of our Hufflepuff students has decided to bunk off from class and he not being happy with his sorting is no excuse. Five points from Hufflepuff and detention tonight with me at seven for Ronald Weasley. Ok now there are various things you learn in charms but the most important of these is your incantation pronunciation as well your hand and wrist movements. In some cases saying the right words the right way but using the wrong hand movements can produce a very different spell in the end. It shows that one cannot work without the other. Now in front of you all you will see various random sticks and I want you to pick those up in your wand hand or whichever hand you use to write with. Hold it as though you would your actual wand. There we go yes. Swish and flick like this. Yes Mr Longbottom exactly!" said the teacher smiling.
Professor Sprout came in then looking alarmed. "Excuse me Professor Flitwick but could I please see you a moment? It would seem one of our students has sealed himself into his bed using strong magic that I can't release myself!" she said sounding panicked as Ron and Neville looked down smirking so they wouldn't be seen. "Yes I'll be right there who is it Pomona?" he asked seriously. "Ronald Weasley Filious!" she said once again. "Five points to to Hufflepuff Mr Longbottom for getting it straight away and five points to Ravenclaw Miss Lovegood for the same reason. As I must be called away now class is dismissed. I'll see you again tomorrow!" he called out as everyone packed up Neville and Harry laughing their heads off unnoticed with all the noise in the room at that point. They left Filious following Pomona into her house and up the stairs to the boys rooms. They entered the room in which Harry and Ron were staying to find Professor Dumbledore waiting for them.
"I have scanned the area Pomona and I've seen that Ronald here has used his accidental magic to seal himself in. it would seem only he can break the seal. Unless of course Filious here can help us out!" he said seriously. Pointing his wand in an array of complex movements Filious spoke in slurred type of Latin speaking very quickly indeed. When the bed shifted and the curtains flew off their hinges everyone saw a snoring Ronald sound asleep. "Mr Weasley!" shouted Professor Sprout. "Not now mummy I'm sleeping!" he mumbled. "MR WEASLEY!" she called out now more annoyed then she had been before. He shot up off the bed in shock. "What in the bloody hell is going on? Where I am and who in the hell are you?" asked Ron eyeing Filious seriously. "Ronald Weasley I am your charms Professor, Professor Flitwick now for missing my class you have detention with me tonight at seven. That is no way to talk to your superiors. You accidentally sealed yourself magically into your bed and we had to work hard to get you out. I would suggest you try harder next time to ensure this doesn't happen again!" he snapped angrily.
"Filious I'm sure that doesn't need to happen eh? I'm sure he's learned his lesson by now haven't you son?" asked Dumbledore. "What's going on though? I mean I did nothing! Who tried to attack me and don't feed me that crap about me locking myself in my own bed as I would not ever do it. Was Harry's wand checked as he's the only one who shares with me!" he said as everyone looked shocked. "No it wasn't actually send for him please!" said Dumbledore. Harry arrived moments later. "You asked to see me sir!" he said politely. "Yes I'd like to check your wand for any spells cast!" he said. He checked the wand and found that the last spell cast was the silencing charm. "Why did you cast the silencing charm Harry my boy?" said Dumbledore seriously. "Oh I charmed Weasley's curtains because he snores like a pig and I actually wanted to get some sleep. Unlike some people I know snoring is not something I can tolerate as it causes me stress and makes it impossible for me to sleep!" he snapped irritably.
"Be that as it may I can't have you charming his curtains each night as that would be annoying for everyone involved. Ok Ron pack up your stuff and we'll move you out of here. Tipsy! Please bring Mr Longbottom's things into this room here and place Mr Weasley's in with Mr McMillan's next door. There we go! Now you don't have to share with Mr Potter at all and no one needs to worry about charms being placed on their bed!" said Professor Sprout seriously. "Pomona is that really necessary I mean I'm sure they could get on all right?" said Albus pushing it really. "Be that as it may Albus my decision is final and you will not push me on it. I would suggest that you make Ronald's brothers swear an oath of secrecy and tell them how to get into my house so they can visit with him here if they want to. I think it would make things easier for him don't you!?" said Professor Sprout smiling. "Yes that's better let's do that then!" he said actually happy. Harry was ecstatic although he tried not to show it.
Later in the day they had potions. Professor Snape slammed open the door strutting to the end of the class to look up at his new students. "As most of you here will not understand the exact art and fine science that is potion making it is no surprise you will do appallingly in my class alas I must teach you all the same none the less. There will be no silly wand waving or stupid incantations in this class. Ah Mr Potter our new celebrity oh how you must relish your fame and fans! Being the best at everything like mum and dad eh?! The Boy who lived everyone come to put us all to shame. Probably knows nothing just like his arrogant and self loving father. Strutting about the castle as though he owns it and everyone should bow down to him because he's a celebrity" he sneered shocking everyone.
"Sorry sir but loosing my family to a deranged lunatic is no reason to be labelled a celebrity and besides which I would never be as foolish as to think I am better then anyone else. I mean my parents clearly did and look where their stupid self righteous arrogance got them. They were not better then Voldermort and I am not better then anyone else here either. The fact that because their death has made me a celebrity is an annoying and chilling fact as had they been as good as they thought they were they'd still be here. Sorry sir but actions speak louder then words and their actions are now speaking volumes as they're not here. They put their faith in the wrong person and refused to accept the right kind of help thinking they knew everything. I mean with that kind of thought is it any wonder Voldermort got them. Oh stop bloody shrieking it's just a damn name and not the person himself. Why in the hell is everyone so afraid of some lunatics name? I am Harry James B Potter and not the boy who lived so refrain please from calling me this thank you!" he snapped shocking Snape and everyone in the room.
"You Mr Potter are nothing like your parents I am at least relieved to say. Tell me where would would you look if I asked you to get me bezor?" he sneered. "Well if you asked me now I'd say your potions kit or indeed my own but usually Bezors can be located in the stomach of a goat!" he said once again shocking Snape. "And what is the different between Monkshood and Wolfsbane?" he asked again. "Sir I don't understand that one as there is no difference and furthermore before you get all smart about it they also go by the other name of Aconite!" Harry said smugly. "Mr Potter you have shocked me today as you know things I had not expected you to know. It would appear you do indeed know more then your parents ever did. Everyone is to focus on Potter here for other reasons now. He may well be the best at potions I've had in my class in years!" said Snape sounding irritated and annoyed at what he was saying as he was saying it.
At the end of class everyone went to the great hall for dinner. Dumbledore was not there and had requested to see Harry Potter in his office. Harry guessed what it was about and smiling he agreed to go. "Come in Harry. Please have a seat won't you. Would you like a lemon drop?" asked Dumbledore seriously. "No thank you sir. What exactly did you want to see me about?" he asked him equally as seriously. "Harry my staff have given out to me about how I worded my speech yesterday on who was or was not brave enough to go to the room on the third floor corridor to the left. I just wished to say I am sorry and that it was meant as an insult to you or anyone else present as I am sure you're all relatively brave in your own ways. You know I knew your parents and they were very brave too! I mean they protected you and always did so well while here at school" he said happily.
"Well because of their stupid arrogance and irresponsibility in placing their faith in the wrong person they died so they can't have been all that brave. Sorry sir it's just that anyone who leaves me in the care of those magic hating freaks is no parent of mine! As for your earlier comment it is alright as I know I'm not brave enough to go near something that dangerous. I mean who knows what could be down there. It's not like a lot of schools have this kind of threat in the school however I would suggest that someone as brave as you would take away whatever it is because it may well be dangerous to have an item of such dangerous power in a school full of children. I only say it must be dangerous as you said it was yesterday. Maybe you should ward the area so no one can go in there as we wouldn't want any accidents would we? If I may be blunt sir that may be necessary with Weasley around as he's a bit daft and might try to prove to you he's brave which trust me he isn't! I've noticed he seems to have an inferiority complex or the sincere need to prove himself. I don't want him to be stupid sir!" Harry said loving it as all the colour drained from Dumbledore's face.
"Well Harry my boy that's no way to talk about your parents and you were only ever with your family as they were all you had left. As for what you said about the stone um I mean dangerous item I feel you are correct and warding it would be a good idea. Don't discount yourself on the whole bravery thing as you're extremely brave in my eyes. I mean I know you would never be brave enough to handle the dangers in the third floor but your still pretty brave. I would suggest befriending Ron Weasley to help him feel more at ease in your house and Draco Malfoy is nothing but trouble so keep away from him please. I don't want you to get hurt!" he implored. Now Harry was interested. "Sir what do you have against Draco? I mean I have my own reasons he and I are not friends but what did he ever do to you personally?" he asked Dumbledore who looked incredibly dumbfounded. "Well...uh...he...uh... he never did anything to me but his family are not as light as everyone else's is. I forbid you from being friends with someone with a dark family and that is the end of the conversation. Now go and have your dinner!" he snapped irritably. Harry left feeling amazing.
Maybe that might change. He hatched a plan and grinned. He went to dinner and enjoyed his meal immensely. That night he sat at his desk in his room with a parchment and some ink and began penning a letter.
Lord Draconis Abraxas Malfoy,
I have been considering all you have said and I have realised that my out right denial of friendship was a little harsh on my part. I was just annoyed that you had told me to fuck off as no one has ever been so blunt to me before. I have a request of you. I will consent to being your friend on one condition of which I will discuss with you tomorrow in the hallway after breakfast. Goodnight and I'll see you tomorrow, Signed, Lord Harry James B Potter.
He picked up the letter and sealed it sending it off with Aries and went to sleep tomorrow would be an interesting day to say the least.
