Chapter 5
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked into the Great Hall. They found a seat at
the table and talked about their summers. Ron was holding Hermione's hand
under the table. Then Dumbledore walked over to the Gryffindor table. His
bright blue eyes showed half-moon spectacles. He was wear robed the colors
of the Hogwarts houses.
"Harry, could I have a word, please," Dumbledore said.
"Sure Professor. What's this-" Harry started to ask.
"I'll explain when we get to my office."
They walked up the stairs to Dumbledore's office.
"Harry, I need to tell you something very important. You scored higher on your Defense Against the Dark Arts O.W.L. than anyone in the History of Hogwarts, and your "Dumbledore's Army Club", well, I was wondering if you want to do the same this year, except, be a teacher."
"A teacher, Professor?"
"Yes, to the 1st and 2nd years, of course."
"Well, I'd be honored!"
"Well, I just need you to sign this, and it'll be settled. Oh, and by the way, Ginny Weasley has stepped down from being the Gryffindor Seeker, so here's your firebolt back."
Harry stood there, in awe. "Thank you so much Professor. But will I have to sit at the teacher's table, I mean, I would like to sit with my house."
"You sit with your house. Now, You mustn't show favoritism toward the Gyrffindor children, okay?"
"Sure, but do you have the books the student need? I have no idea where to start."
"Sure, now just follow this, and you'll be fine."
Harry walked back to the Great Hall with his firebolt. Wow, a teacher, he thought. He looked at the book, and read the lesson plan. You can do this, he thought, you can do it.
"Harry, could I have a word, please," Dumbledore said.
"Sure Professor. What's this-" Harry started to ask.
"I'll explain when we get to my office."
They walked up the stairs to Dumbledore's office.
