Nine hours, three meals and Ron's seventeen consecutive chess wins later, Harry found himself in the bizarrely decorated Ferrari zooming down a suburban street in a town near the Burrow.
Left, left, right, left, right, right.
He wasn't really paying attention. He just stared out the window and wondered why he was so excited about the concert. He had heard Dudley's ear-piercing music before, he wondered if this would be any different. In the end, as they speed towards the graffiti-stained dumpster the marked the entrance to the swamp, that he'd decide when he heard it.
The marshland had been transformed over the past week. Every soggy leaf had been charmed to repel muggles and a posh carpet covered the floor. Spotlights shone from nowhere and the quagmire was littered with chintz armchairs, not unlike the kind Dumbledore favoured.
Harry and the Weasleys took their place at the front of the gathering crowd. Fudge had given them front row seats, not a bad accomplishment considering the number of people that had attended. Not as many as the World Cup, but still lots, well past the ten thousand mark.
After an eventful hour of people noisily getting into their seats, the airborne light suddenly dimmed. Harry turned away from where he had been talking to Ron and eagerly watched the stage. After a longwinded speech (to which Harry paid little attention to), finally the ten members of the Weird Sisters walked onstage to thunderous applause. The seven who played instruments went to their instruments and the singers put their wands to their mouths and muttered "Sonorus". Once they were sure that they were all in tune, they started the first song.
Harry was captured from the first note.
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The Knight Bus's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on a Cleepsweep 10
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
I'm leaving on a Cleepsweep 10
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I think of you
Every song I sing, I sing for you
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on a Cleepsweep 10
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, oh, let me kiss you
And close your eyes and I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times that I won't have to say ...
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on Cleensweep 10
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
And I'm leaving on a Cleensweep 10
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
A/N: Finally!!!
I know it's a short chapter, I'm going to try to update even quicker, not that will be hard, will it?
Oh ya, I dont own Harry Potter or "I'm leaving on a jet plane", nor did I create them.
