It was the summer, August 20 to be exact. Harry was tucked away in his room sleeping only to awake to his aunts shrilling voice "UP! GET UP!" His aunt yelled from the bottom of the stairs. Harry used to this already sleepily got out of bed and stretched, he looked out the window and saw the pouring rain "great" Harry mumbled "another day stuck inside with these people" Hedwig gave a hoot as to say she agreed. Harry pulled on his socks, grabbed his glasses on his side table dresser, and headed down stairs, Harry sat in his seat and poured some orange juice while his aunt handed him some toast, Harry looked down at his lousy unbuttered pieces of toast, then at Dudley's (Harry's fat cousin) BLT with extra bacon on the side, along with eggs and hash browns, I guess Harry's face could show that he was disgusted because just then his Uncle Vernon spat out "What!? Our food not good enough? Isn't it enough that we took you in clothed you and gave you a place to sleep?" Harry could tell his uncle loved doing this to him "Yeah not to mention my second bedroom." Said Dudley. "No no, it's not that" Harry started "it's just, you say you feed me when all you give me is bread and water really, all I'm asking for is some bacon and maybe some frenchtoast, if not going to an orphanage sounds pretty good to me" he finished.

He saw his uncles face turn red, his aunt had stopped cooking because Harry smelt the food burning "What do you mean by that boy?" Harry hated being talked to like he was dumb he always had a temper and he didn't care what the Dursley's did to him. "Nothing forget about it" Harry said taking his two pieces of toast and walking towards the stairs he put his first foot on the landing then looked over his shoulder to see it still raining, for the fifth day in a row 'This better stop soon, whats going on any way?' He turned and walked up stairs.

"Great" Harry mumbled, "I can't go outside, I 'm stuck in here, I can't even send out a letter because of this rain." He said and slumped onto his bed and ate his toast. Just then he heard a crash on the window, Harry immediately jumped up and ran to the window "what the!?" He opened the window and in came Earol, Ron's owl, "hey Earol, whats this you got for me?" Harry said taking the letter from the owl and stroking it, placing it in Hedwigs cage for water. Not that he need any because I'm sure he had gotten enough out in that weather.

Harry began to open the letter which was no doubt very dry , and read:

Hey Harry,
How are things? They're great here, mum and dad have been doing a lot of talking about all this rain we're getting they think it has something to do with the wizarding world. Dad has been asking at work, some think it's He who must not be named, but I doubt that It's probably just, well who knows. Oh by the way I asked dad about you staying and he said it was alright, so he is going to call your house tonight be prepared Harry dad doesn't quite know how to use the phone yet, but I'll teach him the trick. We don't know exactly when we're coming so be prepared any way. Got to run bye Harry.

Ron Weasly

Harry looked at his watch, which read 9:45 am He sighed, 'I wonder how that's going to go' placing the letter down Harry walked out of the room, down the stairs to the living room where the Dursleys sat glued to the T.V. "What do you want?" his uncle said not even bothering to look at Harry. He swallowed and said "Uhm, my friend Ron" he paused, his uncle turned to him and said "Yes, your friend Ron?" "well, he wants me to stay the rest of the summer with him and his family." Harry quickly spat out. No one said a word for at least a minute his uncle was about to speak but Harry cut him off "His dad is going to call tonight." There he had done it that wasn't so bad Harry let out a little smile and waited. "When tonight?" his uncle asked, "Uh I don't know they just said tonight." His uncle laughed "those people don't even have the decency to say when they are going to call" His aunt joined in.

Harry just stared at them all, as blank as ever when finally he said "And you don't have the decency to tell me weather I can go or not, are you that slow?" and with that it was quiet "No boy, we'll see if you can go, we'll see." Now it was Harry's turn to laugh "It doesn't matter they said they'd come anyway and there is nothing you can do about it." Harry gave himself a little chuckle and ran up stairs leaving the Dursleys dumb struck and looking as stupid as ever.

He slammed the door to his room and sat on the bed, the clock now read 10:00 'what to do' Harry asked himself. He looked around his room and spotted his books 'home work, better finish some' he grabbed his books and began to write about the 19 century which hunts, when he drifted off to sleep.

!RING RING! !RING RING!

Harry snapped up from his dream and looked at his watch 7:30!

!RING RING!

Harry ran down stairs and at that heard his uncle "Dursley residence" Harry ran into the living room.
"YES YES HELLO?" he heard a voice from the phone "HELLO THIS IS AURTHOR WEASLEY, RONS DAD" Just then Harry heard Ron "not so loud dad, not so loud." His uncle, who had the phone an inch or so away from his ear, spoke "What are you yelling for! This isn't the circus." "Yes yes, of coarse not" Mr.Weasly spoke again "any way, the reason for this phone call is, we were wondering if Harry might want to come stay with us the rest of this summer."

"Well, ok" his uncle Vernon had said 'what?! Did he just say o.k?' Harry was dumb struck "Good good! We'll be around sometime to pick him up, say tomorrow around 3:00" and with that he hung up. Uncle Vernon with the phone still inches away from his ear said "Go upstairs and pack." And threw the phone back on the receiver. 'Yes!' Harry said running upstairs to pack.

----------

"HARRY ARE YOU PACKED?" His aunt yelled. Harry shot straight up and looked around 'today is the day' he was indeed packed, the clock read 12:00 'better go shower' on his way out into the hall he yelled back "YES" and walked into the bathroom.

~~~~

When Harry got out of the shower the clock now read 12:45 'better go down and eat some' but Harry couldn't eat, he was just to excited. "Dudley go up and change." Harry noticed his aunt and uncle a little dressed up "Where are you going?" Harry asked. "Well you are being picked up today, and we want to show those wizard hogs how real people dress." Aunt Petunia nodded. "Yes, you are showing then how a boar and a giraffe dress up." Harry laughed. "What's that supposed to mean!" his uncle yelled (because his uncle was as fat as a pig and his aunt as skinny as a well giraffe). "And do something with that hair." His Aunt said back in reply, Harry of coarse ignored it and walked upstairs 1:00 only two more hours and I'll be with the Weasly's only two more hours.

Harry sat there waiting "nothing to do, I wish they'd hurry up or something" He looked out side, "still raining, and how are they getting here any way?" he asked himself.

Finally it was 2:50 and Harry was called to the living room by his uncle "Harry, get down here, and bring your stuff." Harry grabbed his trunk which held all his clothes and school stuff, he grabbed Hedwig's cage with Hedwig in it, and walked down stairs, which was a hassle, but he made it. They all just sat there, waiting it was 2:58, 2:59, finally 3:00, "They should be here any minute then." Said his uncle. Just then there was a big CRASH in the kitched, his aunt screamed "What in the devil is that!" yelled his Uncle Vernon running towards the kitchen followed by his aunt and cousin. 'No it couldn't be..could it?'

Then he heard a voice "Hello there, sorry about all this mess, I'll have it cleaned in a jiffy." He heard Mr.Weasly's voice, Harry ran into the kitchen. "Oh hello Harry!" Ron said waving along with Fred and George "Hey Harry where is your stuff?" Harry pointed towards the living room "In there." He replied "Alright just a second" Said the twins walking towards the living room. "How did you get in here?" Said Vernon "Magic, speaking of which." He swooped his wand and in an instant the pots and pans which had fallen were all back in their rightful spots.

Petunia just stood there with her mouth hung open, "are you alright?" Mr.Weasly asked, Harry laughed. Just then Fred and George came back into the room along with Harry's trunk, and Hedwig. All set to go then Harry? Harry nodded. "Right then." Mr. Weasly said. "Ok I need you, you and you out into the hall."He said once again pointing to Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and, Dudley. Slowly they backed into the hall not saying a word. "Mr. Weasly how exactly did you plan on bringing us back to the house?" Harry asked "Oh it's simple watch" He said smiling "Insta-homevero" He said with a wave of his wand.

It was amazing, the room began to spin he saw the Dursley's staring at him in a blurr, the whole room was blurry, except for him, Fred and George, Mr. Weasly and, Ron. Suddenly -bam- he was in the Weasly's own living room. "How'd you like that Harry?" Fred said smiling. "It was awesome." Harry replied. He loved it at the Weasly's it was always nice and comfortable in their little house called 'The Burrow' Harry smelt food being cooked in the kitchen, and realized he hadn't eaten a worthy meal in months.

Just then he heard a familiar voice "Arthur, is that you?" called Mrs.Weasly from the kitchen, "Yes, dear." Just then Harry heard footsteps, and there she appeared. "Harry dear, welcome back" She said with a smile. "Thanks, great to be back." He replied. "Yeah, I bet! I wouldn't be able to stand the look at those people for more than a day. Did you see what they were wearing." Said George. Ron, Harry and, Fred burst out laughing, "Yes dear, to true, they were wearing the weirdest things." Mrs.Weasly smiled. "Dinner is cooking, it will be ready shortly, Ron take Harry to your room so he can settle in." Mrs.Weasly said with a nod, "Later you two, me and George have some work of our own to finish." And they bolted up stairs. "SLOW DOWN YOU TWO." Mrs Weasly yelled after them. "Come on Harry, better go upstairs." Harry and Ron walked up the long stairway to the very top floor which was Ron's bedroom. They threw his trunk to the side and placed Hedwigs cage on the desk.

"So Harry, what do you think of all this rain?" Ron asked. "It's horrible, it's always so dark out. Hey did your dad ever find out?" Ron shook his head "No, they say it's nothing really, and it'll clear in a day or so, maybe a week." Harry groaned. "So it'll be raining in Diagon Alley?" Harry asked, "I don't know Harry, but hey! I got you a present" He said smiling "Oh yeah, I forgot it was my birthday" Harry said laughing "How could you forget Harry, Oh yeah those poor slobs can't afford to get you a present." Ron and Harry sat laughing for about a minute, just looking at eachother seemed to set off fireworks of laughter. "Ok ok" said Ron gasping for breath "here it is" he pulled out a box from under his bed. Harry took it "thanks Ron." He said and began to open it.

"Woa" Harry said, "wow I don't know what to say, how on earth did you get this?" Harry said holding the very fang of the Baslis snake that had tried to kill Harry only last year. And on it read: 'Harry, thanks for saving Ginny you're a great true friend -The Weasly's. "I asked Dumbledor, and he gave it to me, then we all helped carve it. Don't worry it's completely safe now." He said with a smile. "Wow Ron, thanks." Harry didn't know what to say. "No, thank you Harry."

"GINNY, BOYS" He heard Mrs.Weasly yell "time to eat, come on down!" Harry was so hungry "Yes! I haven't had a good meal for what seems like ever. And him and Ron walked down stairs.
