Harry got up and brushed the soot off of himself. Dumbledore appeared a
moment later and sent Harry off to his dormitory to see Ron and Hermione.
"Harry!!" cried his bushy haired friend Hermione Granger. "We were so worried."
"Yeah mate Hedwig came flying in so fast you could barely see her" said Ron smiling.
"Harry ,what happened" inquired Hermione.
He preceded to tell them how Ron's letter had probably saved him a LOT of grief, and how he ran to Mrs. Figgs house and covered Aunt Petunia with his Invisibility cloak.
"ARGHHH" he cried.
"What's the matter mate" asked Ron.
"My cloak, I left it with my Aunt. I'll be right back" he yelled as he ran out the door.
He stopped in front of the gargoyle and started naming every candy he had ever heard of.
"Gum Drops, Hershey kisses, Bertie Botts Every Flavored Beans.......................lollipops"
The gargoyle jumped to the side and Harry ran into Dumbledore's Office.
"Sir" he panted, "My...clo-"before he could finish Dumbledore raised his hand signaling the boy to be silent.
"It is right here" he said holding up the cloak. "Mrs. Figg just sent it. It is not harmed in the least." Smiling he popped Lemon Drop into his mouth. "Would you like one" he asked. Harry shook his head no. "I suggest you get some rest then." He replied.
Harry walked back to his dormitory to find Ron and Hermione still up.
"We should go to bed guys" he said "We might go to Diagon Alley tomorrow and it's already 3:00am"
"I guess your right Harry but can I talk to you a little first. I need to ask you something." Said Hermione.
"Sure, I need to ask you something too" replied Harry as Ron walked up the steps to bed. As soon as they heard the door shut they started talking.
"You go first Harry" said Hermione stubbornly.
"Fine, Hermione over the summer I was thinking.......Never mind it's dumb." Stated Harry.
"No it's not Harry. Go on." replied Hermione.
"Well, do you maybe want to go to Hogsmeade with me the first trip we have." asked Harry blushing.
"Harry," said Hermione trying to suppress her laughter." I always do"
"No I mean, on a.......date." said Harry.
"Oh...." She replied no longer laughing but turning a brilliant shade of Gryffindor scarlet.
"You know you could pass for a Weasley with that blush 'Mione" said Harry starting to laugh.
"Oh be quiet" she said laughing and playfully hitting him with a pillow. After a minute or two of intense pillow fighting the pair calmed.
"So what do you say?" asked Harry
"Sure, but we have to break it to Ron........somehow" she replied.
"Why don't we sleep on it" said Harry.
"Ok" she replied and bounded up the steps. Harry made his way to his own dormitory, practiced his occulmency, and went to bed.
The next morning Harry got up slipped into some clothes and headed down the steps and out of the Common room to the Great Hall. Not to his surprise Hermione was already down there. In place of the four tables was one rather small table in the middle covered with food. Harry went and took a seat next to Hermione.
"Hi 'Mione" he said.
"Hi. Sleep Well?" she asked.
"Yeah" he replied.
About a half an hour later Ron came down into the Great Hall. After he ate Hermione held out a portkey. The three of them grabbed it and were instantly transported to Weasley Wizard Wheezes.
"Harry!!" cried his bushy haired friend Hermione Granger. "We were so worried."
"Yeah mate Hedwig came flying in so fast you could barely see her" said Ron smiling.
