A/N: This is part three, Harry parties at his common room and other stuff. R/R!
Harry went back to the common room; Fred and George were talking excitedly. Oliver caught up to them and was talking also. Katie, Angelina, and Alicia we with them also, chattering. As they reached the portrait, they could hear absolutely nothing beyond it, which was a change. Giving the password to the Fat Lady (Amberwood) they entered the room.
Harry looked around curiously. "What happened here?" he asked.
"SURPRISE!" Erupted a shout from the room. Everyone jumper out from behind a chair or a table, holding some party item, like a firework or a cake.
"Hey, you should have told us!" Fred said in mock anger. "We could have brought our Hair Raising Cauldron Cakes and our Rock licorice Wands!"
"Then it wouldn't be a surprise, would it?" Lee Jordan called to him over the noise while setting off some Filibuster fireworks.
Everyone had to be there. Colin kept asking Fred and George if they could take pictures of Harry for him, and Ginny was always in Harry's sight line. He found Hermione and Ron, and they talked and danced late into the night, totally forgetting to pack or tell them that he was leaving. It was only when Professor McGonnagall came up and told them to go to sleep that Harry remembered, and told Hermione and Ron to meet him down here in 10 minutes.
Harry started packing his things into his trunk, and wasn't halfway through when his 10 minutes were up. He hurried downstairs to see Hermione and Ron already there. He wondered where Ron had been while he was packing his trunk.
"Good job Harry!" Hermione said again.
"Yes, well done. Do you know when you are leaving? It can't be until next week at least." Ron said.
"Tomorrow," Harry said glumly.
"TOMRROW?!?!" The other two shouted simultaneously. "But you'll at least have breakfast with us, right???"
"Nope, we go in the carriage to Dreneldon first thing. We eat on the road."
"Oh Harry, you can't go yet! We've just started the term, and think of all the schooling you will miss!" Of course Hermione was worried about the learning part.
"Yah, and you can't help me hurt Malfoy and his brainless git sidekicks!" Ron said.
"I know, I know. But Hermione, think about it, I can see other schools, and Ron, there must be bullies there somewhere."
"Yah, I guess so."
"Well, I'll see you all later, I guess," Harry said, and left Ron and Hermione to talk. He didn't even care at that moment that Ron was with his girlfriend. He finished packing quickly. As he climbed into bed, he thought of last year at Hogwarts and how much fun it was. Hogwarts was his home, and to be leaving it for Quidditch . . . He reminded himself that this was his choice, and he shouldn't be complaining. That was his last conscious thought before he fell asleep for his first, and last night at Hogwarts for a while.
Hi everyone! PLEASE R/R!
