Chapter Two: A Witchy-good treat
"We're staying in the Animal Kingdom Lodge, right dear?" Uncle Vernon said in a loud voice so everyone on the aircraft could hear. He wanted to make it clear how much money he had. "It's in Grand Florida, right dear? It will be a fun holiday in Disney World. I'll bet these 2 weeks will be great!"
"Vernon, keep your voice down," Aunt Petunia said.
Harry sunk in his seat. He was going to be stuck in a stupid muggle airplane for at least 8 hours with Dudley right next to him to keep him company. If only we could apparate in stupid Disney World, Harry thought. He gazed out the window and saw the terminals swoop by as the plane took off. Finally the aircraft was in the air and the airport was the size of a shoebox…a jewelry case…a grain of salt. They were above the clouds now. Harry had never been this high before. It was fun gliding over a sea of white fluff, which reminded him of Hedwig. Oh to see her flying with him. To be on his Firebolt again as the wind rushed through his hair and whooshed through his school robes. To search for that speck of gold. To search it with Cho…
"Move out of the way Harry! I wanna see through the window!" Dudley said, pushing Harry into the back of his seat. "Wow…Looks like marshmallow cream…mmmmm…cream…" Harry rolled his eyes. Just then, a young brunette stewardess came by with the food trolley.
"Coffee? Tea? Milk?" she said as she rolled the cart by.
"Got any healthy nuts?" Dudley asked, hungrily.
"There you go dears," she said, handing Dudley a bag of nuts. The stewardess eyed Harry's scar. She gasped in shock. So did Harry, for he did not expect to see a muggle be in awe of his scar. "Umm…here's some peanuts for you. They're complimentary from the airline…" She winked at Harry and continued with her duties.
Harry opened his bag of peanuts. Dudley had finished his already and was watching Harry. Just as Harry was about to eat one, it spoke to him!
"Nice glasses!" The peanut whispered so only Harry could hear.
"Cool shirt!" Another said. Harry held bag closer to his face and they all began chattering and complimenting Harry.
"You must tell me who does your hair." "Such a nice complexion." "What beautiful green eyes!"
"Heh…complimentary…"Harry chuckled.
