Why do I care if Harry is in danger more than my other friends? This is the question I needed to answer for Crabbe and Goyle. What is the difference between them and Harry? Crabbe suggests that I may be more worried about Harry, because Harry has less experience and therefore will know less.

I don't think that's the reason why. It may be part of it, but there has to be a bigger reason than just that… I just know that Harry's friendship has meant a lot, and even if we argue a lot I wouldn't want to lose it. Is that it? I just don't want to lose his friendship? I suppose it would make sense. After all, as Crabbe and Goyle are in the pureblood community I would still be able to see them and talk to them even if we weren't friends… As part of the pureblood community they would also have resources, resources that Harry wouldn't have if he were to get into some kind of trouble.

It would be easier to lose Harry's friendship. It would be easier to lose his life. As purebloods we're told to carry around at least one healing potion at all times. If a troll beats Harry to a near death, he won't have the potion on him… I do hope he's okay, even if he did leave me for that mudblood girl Granger… At least now I know why I worry about him more. It's just that it would be easier to lose him. I hope he survives.

Here's to answering the question and wishing for friends to stay safe.
