I do not own any of J.K. Rowling's characters. I'm just borrowing them to play with, probably to her horror were she ever to set eyes on this. But what matters is that you who are reading this, whoever you are, that you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it. So, enjoy!!
Chapter 37 Getting Settled In
Harry waited until all the Weasley's had left to start unpacking his things as he didn't want ot have to dodge any awkward questions about why he had chosen Regulus's old room as his own.
Then he lay down on the bed, closing his eyes as he thought about his crazy day.
Mrs. Weasley had forced Ron and Ginny to help her dust every inch of Grimmauld Place while insisting that Harry was not to lift a finger ot help in any way.
She had also insulted Kreacher's cleaning abilities, making Harry rise to his defense in a rather arrogant-sounding pureblood-voice that he had been practicing.
The look on her face had been priceless as he had stated that the behavior of his
house-elf was more then satisfactory in his opinion, which was the only opinion that mattered in regards to the subject.
Then she had ask if he would really be alright there alone with Kreacher before the next order meeting. He had assured her that he would be fine, trying not to sound inpatient to get them gone.
After they had left he had owled Malfoy to tell him that he was settled and the Weasley's were gone, and that he could come over whenever he wanted.
Harry sighed happily as he thought of Drake, only realizing just then how tired he was.
His lips twitched into a smile of amusement as he thought that he could almost hear Draco's voice berating him for not resting enough as he finally drifted into sleep.
