AN: Sorry it's been so long since I posted, but I had thought I was finished. However, since 20 people want me to continue, I guess I have too. HC

September First dawned with an amazing array of exhausted teenagers. The blue moon had been days before, and Harry was still feeling the affects. Moony Jr. had tried much harder the second time, and Harry was sure he'd won for a few moments near the end. It looked as though he would need Snape to brew the Wolfsbane Potion.
Harry hauled his trunk down the stairs and left it near the front door before going into the kitchen and eating.
Being a werewolf gives you a horrible appetite.
After ignoring the people around him for sake of the food in front of him, Harry didn't see Tonks come up behind him.
"Wotcher, Harry."
Harry choked on the toast he was chewing and Tonks had to pound him on the back for a good minute before he could speak.
"Hi Tonks," he said hoarsely.
"I didn't think I'd be able to surprise a werewolf so easily."
Harry shrugged.
Tonks checked her watch, "We'd better get going. Don't want to be late again."
Harry sighed, "I guess."

Loading up the Knight Bus took a little bit of doing, but they managed it eventually. Somehow, Harry was pretty sure it was Remus and Sirius's fault, he and Ginny sat together on the top level.
Well, sat and flew-from-their-chairs-every-few-minutes together.
Harry was nervous, being so close to Ginny made him acutely aware of everything about her.
Ginny seemed nervous too, but more in a Harry-is-acting-strangely-again sort of way.
"Harry, is something wrong?"
"No, nothing's wrong. Why? Am I acting weird?"
"Yes."
"Oh. I have no idea what that's about."
"Okay, if you say so."
"Yeah."
The rest of the journey to King's Cross was filled with uncomfortable silence.
The group continued onto the train, barely making it in time.
"Goodbye guys," the adults waved as the scarlet train began to gather speed and turn the corner.

Way shorter than normal, but I really wasn't going to continue from here. HC
