CHAPTER 3

Harry walked to London. He was very happy that he would be able to see his friends again (well, he'd see Ron soon!) He walked into the tiny building, The Leaky Cauldron. He still wondered whether muggles could see it. He didn't think so. He said hi to everyone, to be polite. He went to the garbage can and took out his wand. Three up, two to the right. He tapped three times. The little doorway opened up almost instantly. Harry walked past a couple of stores. He saw Hermione going into Florish & Blotts.
"Hi, Hermione!" called Harry, running over.
"Harry! I'm so glad to see you...Where's Ron?" asked Hermione.
"He had some problems at home...something about Fred getting his foot stuck in a toilet..." Harry and Hermione both laughed.
"Come on! Let's start getting supplies." Hermione said.
They went into Florish & Blotts and bought all of the books that they need. Harry also bought a couple extra books. They were just going into the Apothecary when they heard Ron calling them.
"Hey Ron!" said Hermione and Harry in unison.
"Hi Harry! Hey Hermione!" said Ron happily. "Ginny is with mom and the twins, well...I don't know where they are..probably buying some kind of book on how to jinx your enemies..Oh well!"
Harry looked at Ron,"Tell us how Fred got his foot stuck in the toilet!"
"Oh...That was funny! Dad brought home this hexed toilet..some wizard put a spell on it that made it close so it wouldn't flush..Fred and George were fooling around with it and some how, it closed on Fred's foot. It took almost a hour to get it out!" answered Ron.
"That must have been hilarious!" said Hermione.
"It was!" answered Ron, laughing.
They finished shopping. They went for lunch at The Leaky Cauldron. Harry, Ron and Hermione hung out for the rest of the day. They had a great time. Harry and Hermione said good-bye to Ron.
"Well, it's time to go to my house," said Hermione.
"Guess so," answered Harry.
They walked to the bus station. They took to the bus to Hermione's house. Hermione introduced Harry to Mr. and Mrs.Granger.
