Little Orphan Harry
Chapter 1
A New Place
Harry,
being three, did not need to do chores. He liked to go into the
playroom, and play trucks in the corner. Or, somedays, he would look
at books in that corner of his. The owners and workers of the
Orphanage, noticed that he was not very social. Harry took a liking
to one particular "Mum" as they called them there, Ashley
Brickett. She was young, like 19, a Hogwarts graduate, and told Harry
a story about her time at Hogwarts, every night at bedtime. His
favorite had been The
Time Professor Snape Yelled At A Prefect,
where Snape did just that. Ashley was the lady that he met when he
woke up that day, exactly two months and seventeen days ago. It was
almost Lights~Out time at the Orphanage, for Harry, at least. He was
moved to the five-and-under room, the room before was full of boys
that needed to be placed somewhere. The Lights~Out times are as
follows:
five and under- 7:00
Six to ten- 8:00
Eleven to fifteen- 9:00
Sixteen and up- 10:00
The boys in his dorm are mostly older, except for Jon and Jakob, the twins, who are his age. All the babys went to the Nursery. The Orphanage was HUGE! They had a whole school wing, and Harry went to the preschool there, three times a week. Ashley was his mentaur. Eveyone had a mentaur. Most people had six other people sharing their mentaur, and got one day with each. But as Harry had been abused, and was afraid of everyone except Ashley beating him, she was with him all of the time. She wanted to adopt him, but you have to be twenty to adopt a child. She was turning twenty in four months and four days, so that very day she was going to adopt him. She would still work part-time at the daycare, and Harry would go to the local half-day preschool. She lived in a small flat, in the heart of London, but she was looking at houses on the outskirts. She was not married, and didn't have a boyfriend. Harry was her life.
A/N,
I know, I know! Short chapter, right? Well I wanted a bit of info on the Orphanage, before the big adoption chapter, so, this was my filler. Like it? Hate it? Click the little dohinger, and REVIEW! (only if you wanna…)
