With a groan, Harry rolled on his side and shut the alarm clock off. He looked around trying to gather his thoughts before he got up. When he realized where he was, he went straight to the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror to try, and fail, to fix his hair. It is the only thing that doesn't change with The-Boy-Who-Lived. His I've-had-the-best-shag-of-my-life-just-a-minute-ago raven hair is still the same but other that that he has grown. Oh! He's definitely grown. With Dumbledore's and Madame Pomphrey's help, he had his eye sight fixed. According to Dumbledore, glasses can be major disadvantage in a duel, so Harry let them fix his eyes. He likes his new look, but without his glasses, Harry had felt naked for a long time. Now his Avada Kedavra green eyes are clearly visible to all. Apart from his eyes, he has new clothes, ones that fit, and they show of his body. He had six years of Quidditch, and now that his baggy clothes weren't hiding it, you could see a body of a Greek God.
Harry took a quick shower and got dressed. His dark-blue shirt, which wrapped around him like a second skin, clearly showed his defined muscled chest, torso and rock hard abs (hot anyone?). He found his black pants from yesterday near the bed and put them on quickly. Then he took his belongings and left the room to meet with Remus. Due to the number of muggles on the King's Cross-station, they couldn't apparate. Instead, they called The Knight Bus. It wasn't an enjoyable ride for Harry, but at least they made it on time. With a quick goodbye to Remus, Harry passed through the wall between platforms 9 and 10. Platform 9 ¾ is as busy as ever on September 1st, and it took almost half an hour to find the Weasleys. Harry tapped Ron on the shoulder to inform him of his presence.
"Harry! It's so good to see you mate, and here we thought you forgot us" Ron said with a sarcastic smile on his lips but Hermione hit him lightly on the head.
"Oh Ron! Just leave him alone, you know he was busy practicing this summer. You did practice Harry right?" she said with a look almost could make Snape run for his money.
"Of course I did 'Mione." Harry was trying not to laugh while Ron made a gagging face, they were about to get on the train when Mrs. Weasley pulled Harry into a hug.
"Oh Harry! Look at you all grown up. How was your summer dear?"
"It was great. Thanks Mrs.Weasley"
"Come on! Get on the train, or you'll miss it. Work hard this year. I don't want any misbehaving."
They bid their goodbyes and made their way to find an empty compartment. They found one at the end of the train. They talked about their summer for the whole ride, and also about how Hermione and Ron had made Head Boy and Head Girl. The most interesting thing was, that Malfoy never came to their compartment. It was very unusual, not that they want him to come. Ron's theory was that he afraid because of them being Head Boy and Head Girl. By the time they reached Hogwarts everyone was complaining about how hungry they were and which lead to a lack of concentration during Professor Dumbledore's speech. When the food appeared, all Gryffindor table was silent with anticipation. After they stuffed themselves, everyone went their dorms to sleep, and for the first time in a year Harry forgot to clear his mind. Fortunately he didn't have any nightmares.
Harry woke up when the sun shined mercilessly on his face from the window. He turned his head to the direction of his clock which proudly showed with big, bright, red numbers that it was 9 o'clock. The only thing that Harry thought before he got up was "Bugger!".... He dressed so quickly that if anyone had been in the room with him wouldn't have even noticed. "Let's see. For six years, my first lesson was always Potions with Slytherin so it should be Potions again. Arghhhhh! Snape will feed me to the giant squid" he thought grimly while he started to run in the direction of the dungeons. He failed to notice that he had forgotten to wear his tie and robe. When he reached the door of the Potions classroom, he knocked two times and entered. He could have sworn he saw a smirk on Snape's face when he saw who entered the classroom.
"Ah! Good morning, Mr. Potter. And here I though we had to do this class in the Gryffindor common room just so you wouldn't be bothered to walk all the way to the dungeons. 50 points from Gryffindor, and you will pair up with Longbottom because he is the only one who doesn't have a partner." said Snape with a smirk.
"Yes sir." Harry sat next to Neville with a grim look on his face, and they immediately started to work on the de-aging potion, which they were currently trying to make. Harry was looking at his potions book while Neville was trying to add the last ingredient to the cauldron. Just before he added it, Hermione looked his way and immediately her eyes got huge.
"NEVILLE, NO!!!!!!" she shrieked, and that made Neville jump and he accidentally dropped the newt eyes into the cauldron, which started to boil and turn a disgusting shade of brown. Harry looked into the cauldron to see what went wrong, and with a bang the potion blew up in his face. He got up from his seat, covered head to toe in brownish liquid. The last thing he remembered before he faded into unconsciousness was Hermione's pale face.
