Chapter 4
Harry woke up the next morning exhausted from staying up so late his head ache really something horrible and Aunt Petunia's yelling didn't help that. He crawled out of bed and quickly dressed. He made his way downstairs. He hadn't bother trying to brush his hair he knew that it wouldn't be any use. His hair never did what he wanted it to he had inherited his father's untamable jet-black hair. Only unlike his father he didn't make his worse by running his hand through it.
Harry entered the kitchen and sat down at the table along with three grumpy looking Dursleys. They all had dark purple circles underneath their eyes and the looked even more grumpy when he had sat down. He shook off their glares with a shrug. He looked over at Dudley who had be staring at him but Dudley looked away as soon as Harry's eyes had met his. Finally, a clinking sound broke the silence at the table. The mail had slide through the slot in the door. Uncle Vernon got up from the table (which shook) and retrieved the mail.
Harry noticed Uncle Vernon held several letters in his hand as he sat back down at the table. He flipped through most of the mumbling "bill…bill." He finally stopped and turned to Dudley and said, " Here's a letter for Dudley." He took a sniff and continued, " And it smells of perfume. He handed the letter to Dudley who quickly opened it while trying to hide it from his mother's view.
Harry knew whom it was from. Since Harry had arrived from Hogwarts he had heard about Dudley's new girlfriend. And since then he had felt permanently sick. He had to sit through Aunt Petunia's sessions about how she absolutely adored her. Harry had seen the girl of course. He wasn't surprised to discover that she looked like a younger slightly more modern Aunt Petunia with a few exceptions here and there. She was a tall girl with brown hair that was slightly wavy. She had an extremely long neck and gray eyes that were very cold. She might have been pretty if she hadn't had a large nose that she liked to stick in the air and a snarl of ugly teeth with a gap that she sucked on constantly.
Harry could tell that she was just as spoiled as Dudley. She had worn a lot of expensive jewelry. She had worn expensive muggle clothing and had cell phone in a clip at her waist. Harry looked up at Dudley whose eyebrows had reached his hairline and gone from pink to a blood red. Harry took a sip of his orange juice. Dudley finished the letter and pocketed it. That's when Harry noticed a red mark a few inches below Dudley's left ear. Harry choked on his juice. Then he thought about it and decided to tease Dudley. " Hey Big D, I didn't know that one could get love bites from boxing", Harry said with a wide grin. Aunt Petunia turned her head. Dudley tried to cover it up but she had already spotted it.
This sent Aunt Petunia into a storm of "Oh Dudleykins" and hugs and tears. Harry felt that sick feeling coming again and drew his attention to his toast. His mind began to wonder about the events of last night. He thought of the dream about the woman on the beach and about Cherry's prediction. Then another thought crossed his mind. He had had another dream after Uncle Vernon had close the door.
He been in the Hospital wing at Hogwarts and someone had come to his side and while holding his bandaged hand had planted a kiss on his cheek very close to his mouth. He had wanted them to kiss mouth but they didn't. Suddenly all the blood in Harry brain had did a complete nosedive to below his waist. It pinched him something terrible and he heard a sudden a giggle and someone ruffled his hair, who ever it was their touch sent chills up and down his spine and he enjoyed ever chill. Then he had woken up. He thought of that kiss again. Bad idea. He felt that pinching again and decided to quickly think of something else.
Uncle Vernon helped him there by clearing his throat. Everyone turned his or her attention to him. Uncle Vernon was holding a letter and began to speak." Petunia, Marge has invited You, Dudley, and I along on her vacation." Aunt Petunia leaped up and down. Uncle Vernon cleared his throat again. "There's only one problem dear." Harry looked down. He could feel the glares on him. Dudley started to complain about how Harry ruined everything. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon sat there arguing about where to send him while he went on vacation.
Harry decided now was a good a time as any to tell them he would be gone tomorrow. " Don't worry I'll be out of your hair in no time." They all turned to him. " I got an invitation the go stay with my friend Ron this summer. I'll be leaving tomorrow." All the Dursleys let out one, long, loud sigh of relief. He turned his attention once again to he breakfast. There was a silence, and for once it wasn't an uncomfortable one. Harry really should have known better. There wasn't any way possible to have a nice moment with the Dursleys even if it was because they wouldn't have to put up with one another very soon.
That's when it happened. A nice looking barn owl flew into the kitchen through the window. This set the Dursleys off instantly. There was furious yelling, hollering, and the occasionally knocking over of food. Harry shrugged his shoulders and gently petted the owl as it dropped a letter into Harry's lap. "What is up with everyone sending me letters?" Harry quickly picked up the letter and recognized the handwriting of Professor Dumbledore instantly. The letter itself told nothing about who the letter was addressed to, there wasn't a name on it or the Hogwarts seal or anything just a blank envelope, but as soon as Harry touched it words began to form in Dumbledore's neat handwriting.
Dear Harry,
I hope that you are doing well. I hope that you received your friend's letter. I know that this is a tough phase in your life. I just need you to know that you should be prepared for this year. I will try to make things as easy as I can for you Harry, but I have to tell you that a new stranger will help you along the way. Hopefully. That is all I can tell you for now be prepared for tomorrow and I hope you have a great summer.
P.S. You will have to call for the Knight Bus
DumbledoreHarry quickly shoved the letter in his jeans pocket. He looked up at the Dursleys who were all blue in the face from yelling. Harry could see they were about to start up again so he excused himself from the table and began to walk back to his room. As he climbed the stairs he began to think, " Who was this new person? Was this was Cherry had predicted?" He shook his head there was no way that what Cherry had said last night had anything to do with Dumbledore's letter. He reached his room and began to fold clothes to put into his school trunk. Then he began to gather all his school things that were spewed through out the trunk.
That's when he scraped his finger against something very sharp. He cleaned out the trunk to find the remaining pieces of the two-way mirror that Sirius had given him. He gathered up the pieces and was about to throw them away when he got the feeling not to. Instead he dropped the pieces into a plastic bag and placed it back into the trunk. He then finally finished packing his things and decided that he should keep himself busy to take his mind off things. The remainder of Harry's day was spent doing homework and polishing his precious Firebolt broomstick.
That night Harry went to bed and had one of the strangest dreams of his life. Suddenly he was back at Hogwarts walking along the lake, he was holding someone's hand, his fingers laced in theirs. It was night and as Harry looked down at himself he saw that he was wearing his green dress robes. He looked to his companion but couldn't make out what they were wearing or even who they were. Those things didn't really matter just as long as Harry was touching them. Suddenly they stopped he felt his heart beating faster. His companion was getting closer and so was he. He wanted to stop himself but he couldn't. Then their lips met perfectly together. The kiss was perfect. The lips he kissed were soft and gentle and filled with passion and love. This kiss wasn't like the one he had with Cho in the Room of Requirement. This was different and exciting and lovely.
Harry decided to tempt fate as if by instinct he let his tongue touch his companion's lower lip as if asking for entrance. His companion excepted and let him deepened the kiss. They stood there in the windy night air wrapped in each other's arm and exploring each other's mouths. Harry wasn't aware of anything in the world he wasn't even aware that he needed air. AIR!!!!
Harry awoke the next morning gasping for breath. He lips had a tingling feeling and so did something in his pajama bottoms. Harry got out of bed and decided to take a long cold shower. He quickly got dress and headed down stairs with his trunk. He looked around to find that the Dursleys had headed out early and decided to eat a quick breakfast.
After breakfast, Harry walked out side and rounded the corner. He made sure no one was looking and stuck out his right hand with his wand in it. Suddenly the big purple triple-decker Knight Bus appeared. Harry climbed on board and with the help of Stanley easily put his trunk away. He turned around only to bee greeted by Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, and Alastor Moody. They all looked at him with a look of sympathy. Harry took the time to notice that Tonks and Lupin looked very close and when Tonks went to hug Harry he felt saw a old but very expensive looking ring on her finger. " Let's be off to headquarters then.", whispered Tonks.
" Don't tell the whole bus woman!", Moody whispered back.
The bus gave a sudden lurch and they were on their way not to the Burrow but to The Order of the Phoenix's headquarters.
