~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter 4: Peeves' Message~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry woke earlier than he had intended on that morning. He decided not to tell Hermione and Ron about his dream…and definitely not to tell Cho. Harry once again reached for his glasses, stumbled out of bed and got dressed. Fred and George were in the common room asleep. Harry walked over to the table they were sitting at and glanced at the two extremely large potions books. "Potions for a Seventh Year and Death Binding Potions and Potion Mixtures Reference Volume four." Harry read out loud. Professor Snape had obviously over loaded them with homework again.
Taking one last look at the two of them, Harry climbed out of the portrait hole and made his way……er…tried to make his way to the Great Hall for breakfast. Just as Harry stepped out of the portrait hole, a gigantic water balloon busted on Harry's head.
"Peeves!" Harry shouted angrily.
Peeves came floating down from the high ceiling's shadows chanting: "Potter Potter, all covered in water. My, how you smell like a wet cat."
Harry looked up at the ghostly figure floating a mere two feet above him, with a scowl on his face.
"Potter Potter, all covered in water. My how you smell like a wet cat."
"Oh Peeves, will you shut up!"
Peeves smiled a ghoulish grin. "Oh Potter Oh Potter, all covered in water. Don't lotter around my dear dear Potter, for someone has betrayed you." Peeves said flatly.
"Huh?" Harry said, the scowl that was on his face was soon covered by a look of confusion.
"You told me to shut up remember?" the ghost said, and with that he disappeared.
Well that was interesting, Harry said thoughtfully to himself.
Harry reached the Great Hall at the normal time he would have been there if he hadn't left early. As soon as Harry walked into the Great Hall he was flooded with people asking him about him and Cho. To make his way to the Gryffindor table, Harry ducked down low and pulled the hood of his cloak up over his head.
"Where have you been?" Ron whispered as the hooded figure took the seat beside him.
Harry told Ron and Hermione about Peeves and what he had said.
"So let me get this straight, He hit you in the head with a water balloon and started chanting Potter Potter…what was it again? Hermione said, evidently thinking very hard.
Harry sighed; he was becoming very bored with the whole situation. "Oh Potter Oh Potter, all covered in water. Don't lotter around my dear dear Potter, for someone has betrayed you." Harry repeated for the hundredth time.
Hermione sighed. "I really don't know Harry."
Harry slammed his head on the table.
"What about Cho?"
"What do you mean what about Cho?" Harry asked Ron.
"Well, she just all of the sudden started being all friendly with you. Don't you think that's just a little…well…odd?"
"You're just jealous Ron!" Harry shouted, his face turning red.
Harry stood up and left the table. Cho wouldn't do that to me…….would she?
