Soft, silky lips were gently kissing Harry's ear. He smiled slowly in
delight from the ministrations. He leaded his head against the touches a
bit more.
"Mmm...Krys...that feels really good..." The lips were joined by a playfully nuzzling nose before a sharp bite slit into the skin of his ear.
"Ow...!" Harry said bolt upright, grumbling after being disturbed from his wonderful dream. He rubbed his sore ear gingerly before looking down to see the small culprit. "Now what in the blazes was that for?" Hedwig flushed her feathers out in importance as if she was trying to say, 'I was supposed to do that.' Harry eyed his pet suspiciously as he took Krys's letter out from behind Hedwig's talons. His mood lightened considerably as he carefully opened the letter with much haste. Harry burst out laughing at the first line of Krys's letter.
'...I hope you liked the kiss from me. Sorry that it had to be delivered by Hedwig. I know it's corny, but it's the only thing I can do from across streets...'
Grinning in total amusement, Harry reached over and gave Hedwig a reassuring stroke upon her white feathers.
"Sorry Hedwig, I didn't mean to yell at you." The bird just narrowed her beady, little eyes, not taking the apology seriously. Harry rolled his eyes. "Oh all right..." He crumbled up half his cookie that he had stashed for a snack after dinner. Hedwig took the crumbs with contentment.
"Harry Potter!" A stocky voice rang up the stairwell, almost shaking Harry's hand-me-down room.
"Great..." Harry mumbled as he dragged his feet to the top of the stairs. "Yes Uncle Vernon?" He answered in a dismal tone as always.
"We are spending the weekend with Aunt Marge. Since you upset her so much, you're staying here. Petunia left you a few chores to do around the house while we're gone." That was it. He always spoke rather curtly to his nephew, direct and to the point. Harry knew that his chore list would have him busy 18 hours a day just to get it all done without having to hear them carry on when they returned to his unfinished jobs. At that moment, that was the least of his worries. He had the whole house to himself! He could visit Krys whenever he wanted!
