Harry Potter looked around his room. When he finally found his glasses, he
immediately looked at the clock. 7:30 A.M... He began to wonder if that
dream was really a memory. He found himself sort of sad, but then looked
outside. The sun was just rising, but Harry knew he had to start to get
ready.
He got out of bed, took off his pajamas, and put some newly laundered clothes on. Just as he was about to get out of his room, his owl Hedwig came flying through the window.
"Finally, you're here. I thought I was going to go to Bulgaria without you. Did you get the letter?" he said.
Hedwig put one foot out. The foot has a little piece of paper on it. Harry took out the piece of paper and began to read it:
Dear Harry,
Hello! I just hope Hedwig gave this to you on time. It would be pretty useless if it didn't. Anyway, just writing to you because mum wants me to remind you that the portkey will leave at 10 o'clock. It will arrive in front of the Krums' house. Hermione, me and my family will be waiting for you there. See you in Bulgaria!
Ron
Harry finished the letter and folded it into his pocket. He then opened his school trunk and took out his Quidditch tickets. He stared at it with amazement. He couldn't believe that Hermione has given it as his birthday present. His birthday wasn't even until a couple of days from now. He couldn't believe that Bulgaria is playing against America on his birthday.
After making sure that everything was really happening, Harry went downstairs and made himself breakfast. Later, he brushed his teeth, made his bed, and made sure that he packed everything.
By the time he finished, his uncle and aunt woke up. He ignored them, just as they did to him.
A couple of weeks ago, Harry got his tickets and portkey from Hermione. When his uncle found out, he was so happy that at time he even forgot Harry was still there. He never had his nephew out of his house at such a long time. Sometimes, Harry could've sworn his uncle was actually-skipping to work.
When everything was finished, he looked at his watch. 9:35. He got up, and started to bring his trunk down. He never realized how heavy it really was. When it was time to bring it downstairs, Harry began to imagine himself getting squished by the trunk. Gathering all of his might, Harry took one of the handles and began to make his way down. A few moments later, Harry felt like the trunk was actually lighter. He then heard footsteps behind him. He looked behind and saw his cousin Dudley actually helping him.
Harry was shocked. He never knew that his cousin was this nice. 'But then again,' he thought 'he might just want me to get out of the house sooner.'
When the two boys finally got the trunk out into the yard, Dudley began to run inside the house. When Harry ran after him, he was surprised that Dudley was carrying his luggage. Not wanting to ask why, Harry just took Hedwig in her cage and began to go to the yard.
"Thanks." Harry said.
He looked at his watch again. It was 9:57. Harry searched his pockets and took out an old, rusty key. He held it up and looked at it. He then tied a rope on Hedwig's cage and his trunk. Then he padlocked the handles of his luggage to the handles of his trunk. He looked at the time and saw 9:59 and 30 seconds. He looked at the house again and said to Hedwig "Be careful, this is going to be a rough ride." Just as he finished his sentence, Harry felt a tug on his whole body and gripped on to his owl's cage.
