AN: Apologies for the formation of the first chapter, looking over it as I posted it, it made me seem very uneducated. Haha. I just need to get used to this new system. Well, yesh. Here's chapter 2, read and review, I'll love you[[hahaha. So many rhymes…
Harry didn't sleep the whole night through. There was a deep mixture of excitement, anxiousness, and fear brewing inside him. It felt like an eternity since he'd seen his friends. He couldn't wait. But…also, he couldn't push the romantics out of his head. How was he to react? The same as he always had? How could he do that, since he didn't feel the same as he had before? He now had this bone crushing loneliness inside of him…
He pushed those thoughts out of his head. Why drag the two people he cared about most down with him? Why dwell, worry? Today would be the best day of his summer so far!
As Harry rolled out of bed, he filled his mind with all the old memories of fun and laughter. He forced himself to think these thoughts as he showered, dressed, and gathered all this things (including his owl) and caught the next bus to Kings Cross. Not as much as a word came from any Dursley.
Needless to say, he was beginning to attract strange stares from the people n the bus with him. It was almost as if they'd never seen a snowy owl before. Either way, Harry was beginning to grow more and more uneasy in the Muggling world he'd discovered. He didn't feel 'normal' as his relatives had put it. And why should he? He felt himself yearning to play Quidditch, eating strange treats from Hagrid's hut, or even brewing something in his Potions class…
Suddenly, it started up again. Harry's heart began to ache as he thought of his last term. And, as if to make his heart sear with even more pain…
"Sirius…" Harry half whispered, half choked to himself, straining to hold the tears back. No, please don't cry, he begged himself, Not here…Later, he told himself bitterly.
He managed to hold the emotional toxins back with the knowledge they'd be released later. He felt dead on the inside now. Why? He was fine just a second ago. Why the sudden change of heart?
Oh, yea… His dead Godfather.
Just as he was getting choked up again, he heard someone call his name. "Harry!"
He looked up just in time to see Hermione, Ron, Fred and George coming towards him. And for a split second, Harry felt a bit more relieved to see the twins than his own best friends. That way, even if they DID start acting like a couple, he'd have someone to turn to in a way, at least…
"Hey guys!" he said with a grin as he stood up, blocking all things unpleasant from his mind.
"Harry!" Fred clasped him hard on the back while George grasped his arm, "How goes it?"
"Great," he lied, "Yourselves?"
"Business is fantastic!" George exclaimed, referring to the joke shop the twins had opened after they left Hogwarts, "And Mum hasn't even had to turn the hose on these two yet!"
"George!" Hermione squealed, her face changing the color of her beaus hair while his ears went a bright pink.
Fred smirked, "They're just shy…" He looked at Harry's stuff, "Is that all?"
Quickly, Harry nodded, thankful that the subject had changed so quickly. "Great," The twins grabbed his things before he could, Fred handing him only his owl. "Then, it's back off to the Burrow!!"
Mmk, there's the second chapter. I hope you enjoyed it. More to come. Sorry its so slow in the beginning, I PROMISE it'll get better. R&R Loves!!
