A/N: I do not own Harry Potter.
I am so, so, so sorry for the lack of updates. It is not because of writers block I swear! I've just been really busy with exams and my new classes at school. More updates are on the way...
He was rather scrawny; she had decided that right away: a scrawny bespectacled boy. Honestly the boy was no bigger than her. Her bushy brown hair actually gave her a slight height advantage over the new kid.
"Class I would like for you to give a warm welcome to Harry Potter," Miss Buttersnupp said in her overly cheerful voice. "Harry will be joining our class for the rest of the year."
"Hullo Harry," she echoed with the rest of the class.
"Harry why don't you take the empty seat next to Hermione," Miss Buttersnupp pushed him gently in the direction of the empty chair directly beside the bushy haired girl.
Harry sighed as he looked around the classroom, he already felt out of place. The other children were staring at him, and he subconsciously moved his head to make sure his hair covered his scar.
"Hi," the girl who he assumed was Hermione – unless Miss Buttersnupp had gone round the bend – said. "I'm Hermione Granger." So Miss Buttersnupp wasn't completely insane.
"Harry. Harry Potter," he didn't look at her, but instead focused his eyes on the front of the class. Miss Buttersnupp was talking about the upcoming Halloween party, and how everyone would have the chance to dress up for the day.
"So where did you move here from?"
"Here, there and everywhere," Harry stated. "We move around a lot. I doubt I'll be here long."
"That's a shame," Hermione said. "As far as, schools go this one's alright."
"How many schools have you been to?" Could it be that this girl moved around as much as he did?
"I've been to five schools," Hermione blushed slightly. "My parents keep relocating for work, so I have to change schools a lot."
"That's horrible," Harry said. "This is only my first school. Mum and Sirius worry a lot. And my little sister cries every time I try to leave the house."
"She must be very attached to you."
"Yeah," Harry agreed. "She is really annoying though, she only wants to play baby games." Harry was not about to admit that he loved playing with his baby sister.
"I wish I had a brother or sister," Hermione sighed.
"Hermione, and Harry!" Miss Buttersnupp shouted, or what passed for a shout; she was a very flighty teacher. "You need to pay attention."
"Of course Miss Buttersnupp," Harry smiled. It was time to put what Sirius had taught him to good use. Waving his hand under the desk he smiled even wider when he conjured the whoopee cushion on her chair.
"Everyone get out your math books," Miss Buttersnupp ordered. "and complete the first page. Harry there should be an extra book in your desk."
Harry nodded and smiled when she moved to take a seat at her desk. Harry took out the math book keeping a careful eye on the teacher. Right on cue Miss Buttersnupp sat down and the cushion erupted through the room. The entire class burst out laughing. He smiled and looked over at Hermione as he laughed with the rest of the class.
