Thump...Thump...Thump
Those were the sounds that woke Harry Potter up
Thump... Thump...Thump
For some reason those sounds made one, Harry Potter, nervous. But why should he be nervous? It just meant his uncle or cousin was coming up the stairs. Harry shook himself slightly. Nothing could happen to him, the Order took care of all that.
"You deserve to get treated badly," Harry told himself, "you killed Sirius" There was another thump and Harry knew someone was right outside his door. Harry heard a key being inserted into the lock and the door knob turned. In walked Vernon Dursley a belt in one hand, and a beer bottle in the other.
Uncle Vernon called in his son and handed Dudley the belt. Vernon Dursley took one last sip from the beer and threw the bottle at his now extremely nervous nephew. Harry with his seeker reflexes dodged it easily. This made Uncle Vernon red with rage, and he grabbed Harry by the hair and started kicking and punching the boy. Harry was dimly aware of his laughing cousin as he was being beaten. After a while Vernon became bored of doing this and demanded the belt be given to him. Vernon ripped off Harry's shirt forced him to lie on his stomach. Uncle Vernon whipped him leaving big welts in its wake. Vernon only stopped when he heard his wife Petunia calling him for dinner. Then he and an amused Dudley went down to dinner. Harry stayed on the floor and his last thought before he went unconscious was: "I deserved it."
