Chapter 5: Nighttime Kitchen tales
Harry watched through Lunch as Leslie and Luna talked to Chelsie and Draco taunted first years, and Hermione and Ron argued about Krum. "Harry.. you alive in there mate?" Ron asked, "Nah" Harry replied, standing up seeing everyone leaving the hall, "What class do you have..?" Ron asked, "Divination.. I think?" Harry said shrugging, "Me too.. How did I get an O.W.L. level divination course?" Ron asked, "You tried.. plus it isnt that bad" Harry said glancing out of the corner of his eye as Leslie walked off Chelsie talking to her then walked with Ron to divination.
That evening Harry snuck out with his invisibility cloak and down to the kitchens, when he got their someone was talking to Winky and Dobby..
It was Leslie, she sat on the stone floor by the hearth, Winky beside her, and Dobby on her stretched out Legs smiling and talking to both of them. "So Dobby says.." Dobby began when he glanced to the door, "Mr Harry Potter sir!" Dobby squealed running over to hug Harry, who grinned. "Hey Dobby" he said, Leslie glanced up at him, "Hello Harry" she said, Winky waved and they went back to talking about Winky's worries. "Well Winky why would you want a master?" Leslie asked, "Because that is what Houseelves are supposed to do.. not be demanding pay or nuffin" Winky said. "Well you work here now dont you" Leslie said reassuringly. "Oh yes Hogwarts is wonderful but it just aint bein' the same Ms. Leslie" Winky said, "Well you can always come work for my family they'd Love you" Leslie said, "Oh Could I?!" Winky squealed and hugged Leslie who giggled, "Of course.. my father and sister could always use the help.. and we have an extra room and everything" Leslie said, then stood up dusting the soot off her skirt as Winky huried over to Dobby. "So what is Mr. Harry Potter be wantin' sir?" Dobby squealed. "Just a spiced cider please?" Harry asked, Dobby and Winky huried off to tend to His order. Leslie sat on the Ravenclaw table under the one that sat in the great hall. Harry sat down beside her, "So Winky seems excited?" Harry said, "Yeah, she seemed so miserable.. I'm glad I helped" she said, "And you made Dobbys day.." She said. Harry shrugged, "Perhaps" he said.
