Chapter 33

"Oh sorry" gasped Harry helping Snape up. "Are you alright?" he asked him.

"Yes" he replied cleaning the dust away.

"Did you say Snape?" asked Ron hurrying up to them.

Harry nodded in reply and Ron said "wow…its weird"

"Do I know you?" Snape asked looking curiously from one to the other.

"You will soon enough" Harry replied.

"Harry" scolded Ron.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Snape.

Never mind Harry replied waving his hand in front of his face to get rid of a fly when he felt a sudden heat come from his hand he saw the cabinet explode and catch fire.

"Harry" gasped Ron pulling his hand down to his side.

"Sorry" he said trying to calm down.

"What happened?" asked Snape staring at the broken cabinet.

"I don't know" replied Harry hoping that he wouldn't guess it was his hand that had caused the mini explosion.

While Snape turned away from them to examine the wood Ron grabbed Harry and pulled him towards his seat while the teacher put out the fire with his wand.

As they returned to their seats Harry saw his mother staring at him. 'Oh no' he thought 'I hope she didn't notice my ability'

"Are you alright?" asked a concerned Hermione patting his arm.

Nodding, Harry continued with his potion despite his mother watching him every move.

He was trying to avoid her eye contact so he didn't look up from his work for the rest of the lesson and trying to control his emotions, which were anxiously nearly causing his powers to appear when he didn't want them to.

After an uneventful study class he headed to the great hall for dinnertime with the others including Ginny joining them from her class they walked in on an argument his parents were having at the table.

"I know I am right" he heard his mother say to James who stood opposite her.

"Your crazy" his father replied folding his arms in a huff. When they both noticed hid presence they stopped bickering and sat down.

"So?" asked James "that was weird in class?"

Harry just shrugged his shoulders and sat down beside his father.

He noticed Ginny as she sat down beside him quite close almost touching that he could feel the vibe of her clothes brushing against him that he shivered even though it wasn't cold.

Throughout their dinner he noticed Lilly and James watching him when he wasn't looking but he could sense their eyes on him. And he was panicking incase his powers showed up for everyone to see which he didn't want to happen as he would be known as 'freak' to everyone he thought as he ate.

After dinner they went back to the common room where the fire was almost out and Hermione asked him to use his magic since there was no one else there yet so he pushed his hands forward and it came to life just as his parents walked in.

For the rest of the evening they sat up quite late as everyone had gone to bed and a light went out so since there was no one up except from them he stood up and raised his arms and levitated in the air up to the light and fixed it unaware of his mother watching him from behind the wall smothering a gasp of shock with her hand.
